Chapter 96 Mine Disaster 1 (Chen Lixin sneaks down into the mine; his vehicle is different)
A month later, as winter approached, one morning, the glass windows of Yu Han's apartment in the rented compound suddenly shook for a moment, a tremor felt, before disappearing. Where was the earthquake?
People in the other rooms also felt the glass windows shake for no apparent reason.
Yu Mei felt the same tremor in her rented apartment.
Chen Lixin and his pedicab were not in the yard; he had gone to the fruit wholesale market to haul goods for the fruit vendors at the fruit stalls on both sides of the street.
Within an hour, news of Yang Yuhan's rented courtyard spread that the mine had notified the families to come and that every miner's family member should rush to the "Renhe" coal mine in Qishi to check if there were any risks involved in having a man working underground.
After delivering the message, the person hurriedly got into the white car parked at the entrance of the rental compound.
After the notice was given, everyone in the compound whose husbands worked at the mine became anxious.
Then, all the women in the courtyard panicked! Fortunately, Yang Yuhan was there. She told everyone not to panic. The messengers hadn't said anything about an accident, just that those with family members of miners underground should go check. She told everyone not to panic and that they would go to the mine together to find out what was going on.
Then, everyone nodded, ran quickly to the street, hailed a white taxi, and headed straight for the "Renhe Coal Mine" in the suburbs.
More than half an hour later, the taxi arrived at "Renhe Coal Mine" and the group got out.
Two white ambulances and a police car were parked on the main road near the mine entrance. A red water pumping truck, which had already stopped operating, was turning around and driving away into the distance.
There were many watermarks at the wellhead; when they arrived, some of the water in the well had been pumped out.
Many miners' families are anxiously waiting for their loved ones who work in the mines and work underground to be able to get out safely.
Among those who came from the compound were Zhu Yu, the sick daughter-in-law Zhang Ailian, and Zhang Wencai.
Zhang Ailian's in-laws didn't want her to come; they insisted on coming in person. But the sick daughter-in-law was determined to come and check on her husband's safety. She firmly believed that her husband would be alright in the mine. Her husband was a good man, just like his name, Hao Ren, and he was surely blessed by heaven. He worked overtime in the mine to produce more coal and earn money so that his wife could get medical treatment.
Zhang Ailian had been married to the Hao family for over ten years but had not borne them any children. Her heart ached with worry as she stood at the well, trembling, anxiously watching to see if the Hao family could come out safely.
Zhang Wencai didn't want to come, but since she's not divorced yet, the man currently in the mine is still her legal husband.
Her eyes were completely different from Zhang Ailian's when she looked at the well. Her eyes were filled with murderous intent and resentment. She suddenly remembered the day her husband brought the fat woman to the rented courtyard and pressed her thin body on top of her. Her husband was unmoved and even forced her to divorce him. At this moment, she felt extremely resentful when she thought of this. Then, she showed an evil smile as she looked at the well!
Then she thought fiercely, "It would be best if you died in there while we were still husband and wife. I can get a mining accident compensation, and then I can use this one-time compensation to marry someone far away and make money by selling my smiles in a place I don't like."
Zhu Yu looked at the coal mine entrance without any expression. Even if her husband had a criminal record, he was no pushover either. It was good that her husband liked to go down the mine and could provide for her. Even though he had suffered some work injuries, as his wife, she was initially worried, but then she received compensation for his work injuries, which served as a balancing act.
The women who came to the compound, standing among the other miners' families, each had their own thoughts and speculations.
Suddenly, from the sloping shaft opening, four men carried a stretcher carrying a miner with severe injuries whose muscles were blurred and unclear. Then, four more men carried a wounded man on a secondary stretcher, who kept crying out "Ouch, ouch!"
The injured on the two stretchers were then transferred to two ambulances. Moments later, the ambulances sped off to the city's orthopedic hospital for emergency treatment.
The women were worried, but they couldn't tell who was lying on the stretcher.
After a while, other injured people of varying degrees were also carried out on stretchers and sent to a large hospital for treatment.
A little while later, two men, covered in dirt and staggering, slowly emerged from the well, supporting each other.
The women stared wide-eyed and saw that it was Zhang Yuecai's man and Yu Mei's Chen Lixin.
How could these two be colluding like this down in the well? But this is work. As for up in the well, Chen Lixin would never have anything to do with such scoundrels for Yu Mei's sake.
Why did Chen Lixin go down into the mine? Wasn't he delivering fruit in his tricycle? Why is Yu Han seeing ghosts today? Upon closer inspection, it really was Chen Lixin, Yu Mei's cousin-in-law, her good man.
Then, not long after, the truth came out.
Zhu Yu's husband was drowned on the spot by the mine water that swept up the wellhead during this incident.
Guo Jianhua was paralyzed in his lower limbs. Later, his second wife ran away, and Zhu Yanli remarried him. They got back together for the sake of their daughter.
Zhang Ailian, the sick wife, said that her husband had only suffered minor injuries and was discharged from the hospital after only a few days.
Zhang Yuecai's man went down into the mine for the rich, overweight woman who ate out, hoping she would marry him as soon as possible and that Zhang Yuecai would agree to a divorce sooner. He was seriously injured as soon as he went down into the mine and became a vegetable.
Upon learning this, the overweight rich girl immediately ran away, only to later discover that she was an imposter.
Zhang Yuecai didn't indulge him. After receiving some compensation from the mine, she took the money and ran off to live in another city with a man she had met while working at a hotel.
The male miner, who was in a vegetative state, had no choice but to send him to a welfare institution for foster care.
The mine had a water outlet underground, and many miners died, including Old Liu and Old Liu's husband.
Not long after, Liu Laoya remarried and moved to another place.
As for Chen Lixin going down into the mine, he carried Yu Mei on his back, and miraculously, he didn't suffer any minor injuries. Before, when he was working on the construction team, he was doing construction work on the planks of a five-story building. He fell down, but luckily, he didn't die.
He really does have something protecting him, especially this time!
Actually, that's not the case. This time, there was a soul protecting him from behind. It was a black bean in Yu Han's dream space. When he went to the hospital after the accident, Yu Han secretly gave it to him to eat.
Then he was resurrected.
Then, from the moment Yu Mei learned of that, she immediately stopped her from going down into the coal mine to earn money.
Then Chen Lixin bought a diesel-powered open-top tricycle to transport furniture.
Six months later, he switched to a diesel-powered agricultural tricycle with a driver's cab.
A year later, she sold the three-wheeled farm vehicle with a cab and bought a dark green farm vehicle with dual tires on both rear wheels and a cab.
Several vehicles made several trips back and forth in order to better transport goods to the furniture store.
