She never had any biological children or husband in her life, but she lived a good life.

Tang Yaoyao sat beside her, but found it somewhat suspicious: "Aunt, you were pregnant back then, why didn't you keep the baby?"

Qiao Xiuzhen recalled: "I was pregnant for ten months, but the baby was stillborn."

"You've been pregnant for ten months?" Tang Yaoyao said, "How could it be a stillbirth? Auntie, didn't you have any prenatal checkups?"

Qiao Xiuzhen said, "We did it. The baby was very healthy in the womb, but it was stillborn. Medicine wasn't as advanced back then, so we probably made a mistake."

"The chance of this happening is only one in ten thousand."

"But it just so happened to my great-aunt." Qiao Xiuzhen could never forget it.

In the days following Xie Jingxing's death, she was devastated and even considered dying with him.

She had prepared sleeping pills, but the doctor told her she was three months pregnant.

This was Xie Jingxing's motivation for her, giving her the courage to live on from heaven.

She also felt that the child might be him.

She didn't want to die.

She must live on bravely.

Carrying the belief Xie Jingxing gave her.

He said that sunny days meant he was smiling, so the sun shone every day during that period.

The night breeze was also quite cool.

It was Xie Jingxing embracing her.

Until the day she gave birth, she endured five hours of pain on the operating table until the moment she gave birth to her child.

A sudden clap of thunder sounded in the sky, followed by a torrential downpour.

Her child neither cried nor made a fuss.

The doctor brought the baby to her and told her that the child was dead.

He died in his stomach.

At that moment, the sky seemed to collapse and the earth to split open; Qiao Xiuzhen's world completely crumbled.

She saw Xie Jingxing crying in front of her, his expression one of disappointment and sadness.

But then he touched her hair and said it was nothing.

He won't blame her.

He didn't blame her, but she blamed herself.

Perhaps the sins committed in a past life have caused this person to be unable to find peace in this life.

She lived in misery and began to practice vegetarianism and chant Buddhist prayers, hoping that her children and husband could be reborn into a good family in their next life.

May you live a healthy and happy life forever.

This has been her wish for many years.

I just want to pray for them.

The shadows have passed, but Qiao Xiuzhen's love for him remains unchanged.

She was willing to remain unmarried for life, wanting only to stay with them.

"Auntie, which hospital did you give birth in? Are you sure there was no crying at the time?" Tang Yaoyao asked repeatedly.

Qiao Xiuzhen didn't know why Tang Yaoyao suddenly cared about this: "Yes, although I was in a daze and in a lot of pain at the time, I didn't hear the baby crying. There were a lot of people giving birth back then, and conditions weren't as good as they are now. You could hear the baby being born next door."

The sound of other people's babies crying at birth, while my own child has never even cried, is unbearable.

She didn't even dare to look at the child's face at the time.

She ran away from it, unable to face the truth.

She was on the verge of a breakdown, and at that time she was somewhat insane, almost taking someone else's child home with her.

The doctor managed to stop her from doing anything more extreme.

She eventually recovered and regained consciousness.

Ultimately, we must return to real life.

The conclusion is that Qiao Xiuzhen had a child before, but the child died at birth.

Tang Yaoyao asked hypothetically, "Aunt, are you really sure your child is dead?"

Qiao Xiuzhen said, "Yes, I'm sure. I checked his breathing, and he's not breathing anymore."

"Boy or girl?"

“A boy.” Qiao Xiuzhen’s eyes reddened as she spoke. “He was just born, all wrinkled and bruised. I don’t know who he will look like when he grows up.”

Tang Yaoyao had a bold guess, but hesitated because she didn't want to arouse Qiao Xiuzhen's hopes and end up disappointed.

Nobody wants to go through that pain again.

Qiao Xiuzhen took the initiative to ask, "Yao'er, why are you asking your aunt so many questions? Is something wrong?"

They do have that much comprehension ability.

It was clear that Tang Yaoyao had many questions when she asked about her child.

Tang Yaoyao cared a lot about her aunt's feelings, but she didn't say it outright.

Qiao Yanzhi said, "Yao'er is just curious, Auntie, don't overthink it."

“No, that’s not right.” Qiao Xiuzhen suddenly remembered: “Ziqing also asked me this question. I was afraid that he wasn’t my child and was too disappointed, so I didn’t mention it much. Now Yao’er brought it up again. You must be hiding something from me.”

Qiao Xiuzhen could hear the solemnity in their voices as they entered.

There's something I need to ask her.

“I saw a man who looked a lot like my uncle,” Tang Yaoyao said.

Qiao Xiuzhen was stunned, too shocked to speak. After several seconds, she asked, "Are you doubting that my child is not dead?"

Tang Yaoyao said, "I have doubts, but I'm not sure. After all, it's too absurd. He looks like your cousin, but your cousin isn't your biological son. Even if they are twins, they can't be your great-aunt's children."

These words caught Qiao Xiuzhen off guard.

She said, "Ziqing doesn't have a twin brother. He's my adopted son, and I know that very well."

“There’s something fishy going on.” Tang Yaoyao continued her analysis: “Even if my uncle has a twin brother, he wouldn’t hate our Qiao family so much, let alone me. I think the other party is targeting our Qiao family.”

Not only her, but even her great-aunt hated her.

He harbored hatred towards the Qiao family.

Qiao Xiuzhen said, "Why hate our Qiao family? Our Qiao family has never had any enemies over the years. Even if you want to hate someone, if I have offended someone, you can come at me. Why target Yao'er?"

“We still need to investigate from my uncle’s biological parents. If my uncle doesn’t have a twin brother, then it’s only possible that…” Tang Yaoyao looked at Qiao Xiuzhen: “Then we should go to the hospital.”

Qiao Xiuzhen felt uneasy, but she was still certain that her child was dead.

"If that's the case, then it's a conspiracy, deliberately stirring up trouble and using my child as a gamble."

Qiao Xiuzhen was somewhat indignant: "Unforgivable."

"Grandma, do you remember that doctor's name?" Tang Yaoyao asked, hoping it would make it easier to find out.

Qiao Xiuzhen said, "His surname was Li, and he was the best doctor in the hospital. I still remember him."

Tang Yaoyao said, "Okay, Auntie, I'll take care of it quickly."

Qiao Xiuzhen was still worried: "Now that we've found out who that person is, it'll be easier to investigate than before. If you need anything, just ask your uncle; he'll definitely help you."

"Okay, Auntie."

After learning about the situation, they had lunch at Qiao Xiuzhen's house.

They went back in the afternoon.

Before leaving, Qiao Xiuzhen gave her the hospital's address.

More than 30 years have passed, and the hospital is long gone, replaced by a large shopping mall.

The hospital's doctors also went to various places.

Tang Yaoyao inquired about the older generation in the neighborhood.

Some people still remember there was a hospital here, and luckily she gave birth here.

A doctor who knows about obstetrics and gynecology.

After the hospital moved, she kept the obstetrician who performed her surgery.

He works as a professor at a private hospital in Fuzhou.
