Soon after, news also came from the police station.
Zhao Chunhua's family, though not purposely spreading the disease, had caused losses to the villagers, which was a fact, and moreover, they had made no reparations and instead deliberately concealed the truth.
The mother and daughter were detained for a month, in addition to being responsible for all the mental and financial losses of the villagers.
Rough estimates suggested they owed several hundred yuan.
Lin Anning heard this news as soon as she got out of school, and decided to hurry home to tell her mother, skipping the black market altogether.
Fortuitously, she caught a ride on a bull cart heading back to the village, and upon boarding, she saw that someone was already seated—it was Li Wumei.
"Auntie, where are you headed?"
Li Wumei looked up at Lin Anning and gave a cheerful laugh.
She lifted the cover of her vegetable basket to show her.
