After a series of examinations at the hospital, Ding Yun was found to be largely unharmed. Although her wounds were deep, they did not strike any vital points. She only needed to rest for a few months according to doctor's orders.
The more serious case was Zhou Huihua.
Ding Yun's kick had landed squarely on her chest.
Not only were her ribs fractured, but the broken ribs had also pierced her lungs. Simultaneously, her heart had suffered severe damage and was currently undergoing emergency resuscitation.
It was fortunate that Ding Yun had used her foot to kick, and given her posture at the time, she couldn't fully exert her strength. Furthermore, the explosive power of her leg was not as great as her arm.
This had, in fact, given her a slim chance of survival.
Otherwise, she would have likely died on the spot.
While Zhou Huihua was being rescued, Ding Yun had already successfully completed the statement process and was cleared of any wrongdoing. This was because she had not initiated the altercation, and Ding Yun had only kicked once, without any further attacks. Therefore, it was a textbook case of self-defense, not excessive.
Conversely, even if Zhou Huihua were to be rescued.
She would still face significant charges.
Currently, two charges were clear: one, assault in public with intent to kill, and two, desecration and insult of a corpse.
Ashes were also considered part of a corpse.
These two points were irrefutable. Not only could all the bystanders testify, but there were also surveillance cameras at the entrance. In short, her case was absolutely unassailable.
After giving her statement, Ding Yun was discharged from the hospital.
She was worried about her great-grandfather's ashes and even more concerned about the state of his grave.
Therefore, she immediately rented a wheelchair and left the hospital.
She headed straight for Dujia Village.
Upon arriving, she found a scene of devastation. Zhou Huihua had clearly acted in haste, or perhaps on impulse, as she had made no prior preparations. She hadn't dug carefully but had instead simply overturned the tombstone and used a shovel to dig.
Even some of the accompanying burial items were scattered everywhere.
Seeing this, Ding Yun, though angry, found it within her expectations and did not erupt in a torrent of abuse. She merely instructed everyone to gather the burial items and then proceeded to level the grave.
"Old Zhang, in a couple of days, invite a few geomancers over. Choose a good day, have all the graves here excavated, and bring the ashes and burial items to where I'm currently staying. We'll decide then whether to build a ancestral hall or send them to a public cemetery. Let me think about it."
Although only her great-grandfather's grave had been desecrated, beside it were the graves of his deceased children, wife, and even grandchildren.
Some contained ashes.
Others were cenotaphs where no bodies could be found.
However, regardless, since she intended to move her great-grandfather's ashes and grave, she couldn't just move one. She had to bring the entire family.
"Director, these graves are?"
"Don't worry, they are all great-grandfather's relatives. Those with more distant relations, or those whose descendants still pay respects and offer sacrifices, will not be moved. The rest should be arranged as soon as possible.
Also, take some time to repair this old house.
The money can be drawn directly from finance.
Don't rebuild it, just restore it to its original condition."
Ding Yun explained. At this moment, she also noticed the old house not far from here, the one where the original owner and her great-grandfather had lived. It had deteriorated significantly over the years, so she added.
"Understood. I'll find someone shortly."
"Alas, when people are ruthless, they are far more so than I ever imagined. I used to dismiss rumors from certain places, like how a boss's mother, favoring her younger son, directly sent her elder son, who was a boss himself, to a mental hospital and gave the factory to the younger one.
Now, I realize I was too naive.
When people become heartless and biased, it's beyond the comprehension of ordinary individuals. They would even disregard the law for financial gain.
Old Zhang, go and meet my so-called birth parents later. Tell them to identify the mastermind behind this, and then I can provide for them in their old age.
I will provide them with the life they desire.
As for anything else, they shouldn't even think about it."
After a moment of reflection, Ding Yun's attitude suddenly shifted, as if she wanted to ease the strained relationship.
Although Old Zhang was curious about the drastic change in Ding Yun's attitude, he wasn't the type to pry. He simply nodded in understanding.
Then, Ding Yun returned in her wheelchair.
She went back to consider the matter of moving the graves and the cemetery. As for Old Zhang, who had received her instructions, he delegated some tasks to others that could be entrusted, while personally attending to matters that were important or required his direct involvement.
For example, meeting with Du Rushen and his wife for negotiations.
The process doesn't need to be detailed, but the final outcome was successful. Du Rushen and his wife, who thought all hope was lost, barely hesitated upon hearing that Ding Yun was willing to provide for them in their old age and offer them good treatment. They immediately sold out their eldest brother, second brother, and their mother. Not only did they sell them out completely, but they also managed to portray themselves as innocent.
They painted themselves as filial sons who were forced to obey their mother due to filial piety.
However, regardless of how those who heard it felt, or whether it made them nauseous, the final outcome was as Ding Yun desired. Zhou Huihua, after recovering from her critical condition, went to jail. As for Du Ruhai and Du Ruyuan and their respective wives, they also received their due punishments.
Furthermore, they completely severed ties with Du Rushen and his wife.
Without the assistance of Du Rushen and his wife.
They no longer had any reason to relentlessly pursue Ding Yun.
As for Du Rushen and his wife, Ding Yun was not one to go back on her word. As soon as they were released, Ding Yun brought them, along with their later-born son, to live in the county town and arranged a new house for them.
They didn't need to work, didn't need to do anything.
Five meals a day, delicacies were delivered on time.
High-oil, high-salt, high-sugar, but simultaneously delicious food, were sent to their dining table as if they were free.
Since the last incident, Ding Yun had come to a realization. No matter what, their blood relationship could not be completely erased by adoption.
It was also not entirely applicable under the law.
Rather than causing trouble in the future, it was better to resolve it early.
As for how to resolve it, one only needed to look at her continuous provision of high-oil, high-salt, and high-sugar food to them to understand Ding Yun's intentions.
Living such a life of luxury could indeed lead to lifestyle diseases. Some of the side effects or complications of these diseases could be worse than death.
Rotting extremities were not uncommon.
The most crucial point was that at this time, people did not have much knowledge about this aspect. Therefore, even if something happened later.
No one would associate it with her.
They would even say that Du Rushen and his wife were simply destined for poverty.
They were not fated to enjoy good fortune.
Wouldn't that be wonderful!
