Chapter 225: Stepmother's Dilemma (17)

"The mother is gradually regaining consciousness, and the family continues to talk to her. The operation will be completed soon." The doctor checked the bleeding and sewed up the mother's wound with the instinct he had learned from the old doctor.

After Shi Yi finished his long string of words, he looked at Mai Huaer on the bed with a cold look that frightened Zhang Ji.

Because he saw in her eyes the sincere love of a mother for her child.

This was also the first time Zhang Ji knew that his lover had a complicated life experience. However, his mother-in-law's family, who lived in harmony with him, turned out to be his lover's stepmother. He was shocked and felt that his mother-in-law's family was great.

How many people in the world can do what his mother-in-law's family did, raising a child who was not related to them by blood, and raising them without asking for anything in return?

Presumably, his lover never mentioned that his mother-in-law was his stepmother because they really treated her like a family member.

"No... No..." Mai Huaer almost struggled to wake up.

If her husband and her child would lose their current life because of her, she would not feel at ease even if she left this world.

"The mother is fully conscious and the operation was successfully completed." The new doctor patted Zhang Ji's shoulder happily and said cheerfully: "Cherish your lover."

"Thank you, doctor, thank you, doctor." Zhang Ji looked at his wife and then at the doctor. The eyes of this boy in his twenties were full of tears of gratitude.

"Mom, thank you." Zhang Ji looked at Shi Yi who followed the doctor out.

"Your wife really risked her life to give birth. If you let her down in the future, I will be the first to not forgive you." Shi Yi said this gently and walked out of the door without looking back.

Through observation over the past few years, she found that Zhang Ji was really good to Mai Huaer, and she, as a stepmother, finally didn't have to worry about Mai Huaer's marriage life. The only thing she was worried about was her parents who were the best to her in the world.

The following years were the most difficult years for Mai Huaer.

She first lost her grandparents. Both of them were happy funerals. They died peacefully in their sleep. They died with a smile on their faces without any pain.

Then her mother Shiyi was diagnosed with a late-stage brain tumor during a physical examination in the hospital. One autumn, her mother Shiyi could not bear the pain of the disease and went abroad for euthanasia.

In just a few years, she lost three close relatives. She was in great pain.

Fortunately, she always had her husband and son by her side, which became her comfort to live.

After she finally accepted the pain of her relatives' death, her biological father came to her.

Her half-brother failed to get into college because of his idleness. Her father, who had not contacted her for a long time, came to her house and shamelessly asked her to adopt her house to her brother whom she had never met. In the past, if her mother Shiyi was still alive, how could they dare to make such a shameless request, but it was because Shiyi's mother was gone and she had no one to protect her that they took advantage of their power to bully her. Although she no longer regarded these people as relatives in her heart, she was still angry and cried.

Zhang Ji showed his most manly side at this time. He beat Qi Yangui up but controlled the intensity, then called the police and asked them to come and solve the problem. How could the police get involved in such a family matter? Naturally, they could only mediate.

It was precisely because Zhang Ji did what Mai Huaer had wanted to do since she was a child that Mai Huaer cried and told the police about her tragic childhood.

The young men in the police station were all passionate young men. After hearing Mai Huaer's tearful story, how could they not sympathize with her? They wanted to beat Qi Yangui up again.

Not only did he allow his mother to mistreat his daughter since he was a child, but he also sold his nine-year-old daughter to a fool as a child bride. Such a father is simply a scumbag that is rare in a century. The scum now even wants to harm his daughter who has a happy family. He is simply a top scumbag.

Zhang Ji never knew that Mai Huaer had such a childhood experience. He felt pity and love for her, but he was even more grateful to his deceased mother-in-law. If Mai Huaer hadn't had the help of this kind stepmother, she might still be living a miserable life somewhere.

After Qi Yangui was "educated" during his days at the police station, he went to look for Mai Huaer and Zhang Ji, but he couldn't find them anymore, so he had to return to his hometown in disgrace. His good-for-nothing son was still waiting for his old father to bring money back from the city.

When walking past the city building square, he accidentally glanced at the street photography advertisement on the LED screen. The low-key black in the crowd made him recognize his ex-wife Zhang Shiyi at a glance.

Because he was too distracted, he didn't notice that the road under his feet had changed from green to red, and a large truck knocked him to the ground.

The glaring blood fell into his eyes, and he could only vaguely see the feet of the people passing by.

In the crowd, he seemed to see his ex-wife Zhang Shiyi again. He moved his lips slightly, wanting to say something, but all he saw was her sarcastic smile at him.

At the moment of death, he realized that he was unwilling. He was unwilling to accept Zhang Shiyi. He and she were married and had obtained a marriage certificate, but he never got her from beginning to end. And in the more than 20 years that he lived with Widow Wang, he was not happy for a single moment. Sometimes when he was drunk, he would imagine that Shiyi and Mai Huaer were living with him.

In the past 20 years, the only happy thing for him was perhaps the moment his son was born. But later, this son, the son that he had placed so much hope on, was taught badly by his mother, father and Widow Wang. He was more disappointed with this son than he liked him.

But he was somewhat grateful to Shiyi in his heart. He was grateful that she could teach her daughter Mai Huaer so well, so that his Mai Huaer could live such a good life in the city and have such a good husband. I heard that they also had a lovely child. It was a pity that he would not have the chance to see this little grandson.

His life was like a joke. He had never been worthy of anyone. Of course, no one was worthy of him. He slowly closed his eyes.

Mai Huaer and Zhang Ji, who were about to leave the city with their family, passed by the city square with their children and suitcases. They saw the crowd gathered in front of them and did not stop.

In this city, they lost their closest family members and had no reason to stay. Besides, Qi Yangui's entanglement was also a trouble for them.

They thought that maybe they would have a happier life if they moved to a new place.
