Chapter 370 Daughter-in-law kills mother-in-law 2 How can my grandmother be so cruel?

Yao Zhizhi followed the old lady all the way to the toilet on the second floor of the state-owned shopping mall.

She stopped and looked at Lao Yao: "Dad, I'm going in to take a look. You wait for me at the stationery store next door."

"Be careful and try not to argue with her." Yao Jingzong was a little worried. He couldn't enter the women's restroom, and if something happened he couldn't cooperate with his daughter the first time, so he could only wait outside.

Yao Zhizhi understood, but when she entered the bathroom, the old lady had already closed the door.

At the same time, there were several other customers using the restroom, so Yao Zhizhi needed to judge which of the seven closed doors was hiding the old lady.

After much thought, she decided to go to the sink and pretend to wash her hands so she could see the old lady when she came out. Otherwise, it would be too rude for her to knock on everyone's door while they were using the restroom.

Soon, other customers came out one after another, leaving only two doors without any movement.

Yao Zhizhi worried something might happen if she was late, so she walked over and knocked on the door closest to her. Choosing between the two options was more likely to work. Even if she chose the wrong one, getting scolded by one person was better than getting scolded by everyone. An elderly woman's impatient voice echoed from inside: "Why are you rushing me? I have diarrhea. Why don't you wait somewhere else?"

Yao Zhizhi apologized and walked towards the door of the stall near the window.

Just as I was about to knock on the door, it opened.

The old lady of the Xiao family felt guilty and didn't even look up to see what the person who was urging her to leave looked like. She left in a hurry without a child in her arms.

Yao Zhizhi frowned. She took out a handkerchief, pinched the door panel, leaned sideways to take a look, and was dumbfounded!

The trash can was filled with used toilet paper, which was stained with various yellow, red and black excrement, making it unbearable to look at.

Under the toilet paper, a piece of red cloth was actually exposed. Judging from its shape, it should be a corner of the quilt!

Damn it, this old woman actually threw the child into the trash can! She even used toilet paper that other people had used to wipe their excrement to cover the swaddling clothes, for fear that someone would immediately discover that a child had been abandoned here!

If Yao Zhizhi hadn't just seen the baby's blanket in the hospital, she wouldn't have realized there was an abandoned baby in the trash can!

She quickly went to the sink to find a broom and gently brushed away the toilet paper on the trash can.

Sure enough, there was the child's dark hair underneath, and for some reason, it was wet.

The narrow squat toilet was surrounded by three door panels and a wall. There was no wind blowing in, but the hair was slightly moving up and down, which showed that the child was still alive!

Yao Zhizhi really couldn't understand how the child's grandmother could be so cruel as to abandon a baby in swaddling clothes!

Is it some incurable disease?

No matter what, save the child! But it would be too dirty to do it directly, so Yao Zhizhi took off her woolen coat, then the sweater underneath, and put on her windbreaker again. She wrapped her hands with the sweater and took the child out of the wastebasket.

It was late autumn, and without a sweater, she was obviously feeling a bit cold. She hurried outside and shouted, "Dad, go to the women's clothing store and buy me a sweater." Otherwise, she would catch a cold, and it would be bad for the family, with the elderly and children, to infect everyone. After thinking about it, she urged, "By the way, buy a new blanket and a bottle of alcohol!"

When Yao Jingzong saw the child in her arms, he understood everything. What a sin! The old woman actually threw the child away. The blanket was dirty and stained with a lot of excrement.

Fortunately, his daughter is kind-hearted, otherwise who would be willing to take the child out?

Fortunately, this is a shopping mall and it is very convenient to buy things. He hurried to get things done and also bought a few handkerchiefs and two sets of baby clothes.

Having helped take care of children over the years, he probably knows what size clothes a child who is a little over six months old should wear. In short, it’s okay to buy a bigger one, so just tell the salesperson that it’s for a one-year-old child.

He also bought a scarf so that he could tie the child on his back and carry him, saving some effort.

Carrying the things, they found Yao Zhizhi. The father and daughter were just next to the toy store, spreading out the newly bought blanket, changing the child's clothes, and cleaning her dirty hands and face.

After all the trouble, Yao Zhizhi sneezed uncontrollably.

Yao Jingzong hurriedly urged: "Hurry up and put on your sweater."

Yao Zhizhi was wearing an autumn shirt underneath, and after putting on a sweater, she finally felt warm.

The father and daughter discussed it and went to the luggage store next door to buy another canvas bag, put the changed quilt, clothes and other things in it, and kept it as evidence.

What should we do next? Yao Zhizhi decided to call the police: "Let's call the police first and then send the child to the hospital, otherwise we won't be able to explain ourselves."

Yao Jingzong had no objection, but if he did that, he wouldn't be able to go to Lao Tao's place.

Yao Jingzong went to the supply and marketing cooperative to make a phone call to prevent Lao Tao from waiting in vain.

After hanging up the phone, the father and daughter went to the nearest police station.

The police officer who was in charge of receiving them was dumbfounded after hearing the whole story. He quickly touched the child's forehead and urged, "Then go to the hospital quickly. I've taken note of the case and will arrange for a female police officer to assist you later."

"Okay, let's go to the urology department of the military hospital. Don't make the wrong call." Yao Zhizhi was worried that the female police officer who arrived later wouldn't be able to find her, so she warned, "Maybe they'll be transferred to the pediatric department. Anyway, I'll tell the nurse that the child's name is 'Gao Qi'."

Since he is the child of Editor-in-Chief Gao, his surname is naturally Gao.

Qi is pronounced the same as "qi" (abandoned), which makes it easier to identify.

The police officer took note and quickly went to find the female police officer who was there to mediate the dispute.

Yao Zhizhi rushed the child to the hospital.

The attending doctor was a little surprised to see that the same child had come back, but the person who sent him to the hospital had changed.

Upon asking, they found out that the child had been abandoned and was picked up by them.

The attending physician was heartbroken: "What a sin! How could they have such a heartless heart to kill such a young child! It was originally because of their ignorance that the patient's condition was delayed. I never thought the old woman would be so cruel as to want to let the child die! She's simply a beast!"

Yao Zhizhi wanted to curse the old woman to death, but the most urgent thing was to save the child. She urged, "Director Tong, forget about all that. Saving the child is the most important thing. I only have a little over 200 yuan on me. Is that enough? If not, I'll go back and get more!"

Director Tong shook his head: "Not enough. Saving the child is the most important thing. You should pay 200 yuan first and leave some ID here. Otherwise, if you never come back, I will have to pay the medical expenses myself!"

Yao Zhizhi was speechless: "Then can I let my dad stay here?"

"Do you have any ID?" Director Tong insisted on his principle, otherwise he could not afford the high cost.

Without saying a word, Yao Jingzong took out his military officer certificate. Although he had retired, he could receive free medical treatment with this certificate.

When Director Tong saw it, he was stunned and quickly called the assistant doctor and the head nurse over to arrange the operation.

However, the informed consent form still had to be signed. Director Tong stopped Yao Zhizhi, who was about to go back to get the money, and asked who between the father and daughter would sign.

Before Yao Zhizhi could say anything, Yao Jingzong snatched the informed consent form and asked him to sign it!

He is a soldier, he will take care of any accidents!

His daughter has already paid a lot to save the child, and he will bear the remaining risks!

Director Tong was deeply moved. He was indeed an old soldier and had a high level of awareness.

Not only was he aware, but he was also very alert. After reading the contents of the informed consent form, Yao Jingzong was surprised and asked, "Are you saying that the child's eggs must be removed?"

"Yes, that's the only way to save his life. I guess that old woman just felt that the child couldn't carry on the family line, so..." Director Tong sighed, "You should also think about it. It's not your child. A boy without an egg will have a hard time in the future. What if the child blames you in the future..."

"He has to be saved! People don't live to pass on their family line! There are so many things in this world worth living and experiencing! Hurry up and arrange the operation!" Yao Zhizhi made a prompt decision and decided to save him!

Old Yao quickly cooperated and signed.

Seeing this, Yao Zhizhi silently patted Lao Yao on the shoulder and said, "Dad, I'll be there soon."

"Go." Yao Jingzong smiled and held his daughter's hand, saying everything without words.

When Yao Zhizhi returned home, Qi Changxiao saw that she was acting out of character. She had no intention of talking to the two children and went straight to the wardrobe to get money. Old Yao had not come back yet, which scared him a lot. He thought that his father-in-law had a serious health problem and had to be hospitalized, so he quickly asked her what was wrong.

Yao Zhizhi briefly explained, and Qi Changxiao immediately urged, "Then go quickly. Saving the child is important. I'm at home! It's okay if you can't come back tonight. I'll ask for leave for you tomorrow morning."

"I know!" Yao Zhizhi came and went in a hurry.

The two children dropped their homework and ran over to ask their father what happened?

Qi Changxiao said proudly: "Mom saved an abandoned little brother. Mom is a heroine!"

"Wow! Mom is so amazing!" Little Moon is even prouder than Dad!

Little Star was proud of it and smiled, "Of course! Otherwise, why would Dad stick to Mom all the time? Our Mom is so good!"

"The best in the world!" Little Moon was very excited!

As they were talking, the phone rang. Qi Changxiao picked up the receiver and laughed: "Dad! Are you free to come over?"

Ning Zhengrong smiled and said, "Yes, I applied for a project to survey cultural relics in a different place, so I have a legitimate reason to come and see you!"

Qi Changxiao asked, "Can my mother come?"

"I can't come. There's a lot of trouble along the river. She's busy as a top every day. And you're building a house in that yard, so she has to keep an eye on it."

"Okay, I've dried those bottles and jars and am waiting for you to identify them. As usual, the particularly meaningful ones will be handed over to the museum, and the generally valuable ones will be kept." He was referring to the eight bottles and jars that He Qiang's family sold to Yao Zhizhi.

After cleaning that day, Yao Zhizhi's system rang.

They are all good things, but they don’t know which ones have cultural relic value, so they still have to ask an expert to come and personally identify them.

Ning Zhengrong smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll even contact the buyer for you when the time comes!"

"No rush, you can hold on to it and wait for two years before selling it!" Qi Changxiao knew that his family was not short of money, so he would keep what he could in case of emergency.

Ning Zhengrong had no objection. He thought the market would rise in a few years and he would be able to sell it at a better price then.

After hanging up the phone, Qi Changxiao watched his child do his homework.

Their family's education has always focused on combining work and rest. They play when it's time to play, and concentrate when it's time to study.

In the hospital, Yao Zhizhi paid the 300 yuan in advance and went to watch at the door of the operating room.

"Dad, you should go back. The two kids asked me where grandpa is!" Yao Zhizhi told a white lie.

Old Yao was indeed a little tired, but he was also worried. What if the child’s mother came and wrongly accused his daughter?

I'll stay here with you no matter what.

Time passed minute by minute. Yao Zhizhi went to a nearby restaurant to buy a box lunch, and the father and daughter ate in the hospital corridor.

After eating, we continued to wait. Fortunately, Yao Zhizhi had prepared for the worst. Fearing that Lao Yao would be bored, she bought some newspapers, a military magazine and a lifestyle magazine and brought them over.

Old Yao spread out one of the newspapers on the ground, sat down and started reading the magazine happily.

Yao Zhizhi picked up the newspaper and started reading. The father and daughter read their own newspapers to pass the time.

More than an hour later, a female police officer came over. She was in her twenties and her name was Zheng Duocai. After briefly verifying the situation, she stayed outside the operating room with the father and daughter.

I didn't expect that we would have to wait until night.

During the period, the door of the operating room was opened three times. Each time, the child was bleeding heavily and plasma was urgently allocated. In addition, Yao Zhizhi was asked to pay an additional 300 yuan.

Yao Zhizhi went out to sell lunch boxes again, and continued to wait after eating.

When the moon came up, the door of the operating room finally opened again.

Yao Zhizhi put down the magazine in her hand and stood up.
