Jiang Deding lost his job in the village hospital because no one would come into contact with him due to Liu Yongxia's case. He was finally driven out by the other rural doctors.
He spent his days drinking at home, hardly leaving.
Then there was the chubby little Jiang Hui, who in normal times was a schoolyard bully. No matter if it was in the school or in the village, he loved strutting his bloated belly around. He relished in laying down false claims about other kids and belligerently shouted at anyone who crossed him.
He deeply absorbed Liu Yongxia's talent for obscene verbal attacks. Despite his young age, his insults were especially venomous.
With Liu Yongxia in trouble, he was significantly affected. Usually, he was the one bullying others at school. But now that everyone knew his mother was a murderer, no one was willing to play with him. Even worse, he was picked on by everyone else.
