Chapter 295 Parents' Love
Zhou Xiaochuan's face was deathly pale, but he didn't dare to look up.
He knew very well that this time, he had completely driven himself into a dead end, with no chance of turning back.
The three Fang brothers were even more furious. They brought Zhou Xiaochuan over together and also invited people from the neighborhood committee.
With so many people as witnesses, she severed her adoption relationship with Zhou Xiaochuan, as well as all other ties, and published a statement in the newspaper.
From now on, no matter how big a mistake Zhou Xiaochuan makes, it will have nothing to do with the Zhou or Fang families.
Fang Guozheng is very meticulous in this regard. He had previously thought that Zhou Xiaochuan could change, but now he has discovered that Zhou Xiaochuan is not only stupid but also selfish.
If such a person makes a mistake, it could be a big one, affecting everyone involved.
I might as well cut it off completely in one go.
After the street worker finished reading, he looked at Fang Hua with sympathy: "Well... if there's nothing else, I'll be going now. I'll give this to the newspaper, and it will be published tomorrow."
Fang Hua nodded weakly: "Thank you for your hard work, making this trip during the Chinese New Year."
After the staff left, Zhou Xiaochuan knelt down and took two steps toward the hospital bed. Fang Guozheng quickly stopped him, saying, "Alright, Xiaochuan, things have already come to this. You should leave now and let Nishino's mother get some rest."
Zhou Xiaochuan's eyes reddened as he looked at Fang Hua, crying, "Mom, I was wrong. I really know I was wrong this time. I shouldn't have made you so angry. Mom, please forgive me just one more time, okay?"
Fang Hua closed his eyes: "You said the same thing last time. I finally softened and took you to your uncle's house, hoping you could see and learn something. I don't know who you listened to or what you said, but in the end... it almost cost me my life."
"I really can't stay any longer. I want to live for another two years."
Zhou Xiaochuan refused to leave and kowtowed repeatedly: "Mom, I was really wrong. I was bewitched. I shouldn't have listened to outsiders."
Fang Guozheng pulled Zhou Xiaochuan aside: "Tell me, who told you that?"
Zhou Xiaochuan pursed his lips, hesitated for a long time, but refused to say who said it.
Fang Guozheng sneered: "You really are loyal, aren't you? Even so, you still won't say who said it? Fine, we can find out anyway, and you'll have nothing to do with us from now on."
After saying that, he dragged Zhou Xiaochuan outside.
Zhou Xiaochuan was heartbroken and refused to leave, repeatedly calling out, "Mom, I was wrong... Mom, I was wrong, please forgive me one last time."
Jiang Zhizhi saw tears streaming down Fang Hua's face and was afraid that she would soften her heart again.
She should have broken off her relationship with Zhou Xiaochuan so many times before, but she always forgave him because of her soft heart.
Zhou Chengzhi took a towel and sat down on the edge of the bed, wiping away Fang Hua's tears: "Don't cry. You just had surgery and are still recovering. Crying will hurt your health. It's not worth it for a child like this."
"Over the years, we've treated him with all our hearts, but this brat can't even compare to a single word from an outsider."
Fang Hua closed her eyes and turned her head away from Zhou Chengzhi's hand: "Alright, you should go back and rest too. Let my brother and sister-in-law keep me company."
Then, looking at Jiang Zhizhi and Zhou Xiye, he said, "Xiye, you should take Zhizhi back to rest as well. Look at how pale she is."
The group couldn't persuade Fang Hua otherwise, so they went home to rest first and came to the hospital to see her in the evening.
When Jin Huaiying was in the second year of junior high school, she sent a prescription to Jiang Zhizhi, asking her to prepare the medicine at home to nourish Fang Hua's body after he was discharged from the hospital.
If we take it to the hospital to drink, it will be very troublesome if Peng Guoqing finds out.
Fang Hua is recovering well, but the medical care is still a bit inadequate, and he was not discharged from the hospital until the tenth day of the Lunar New Year.
When she was discharged from the hospital, Zhou Xiye should have returned to school, and Jiang Zhizhi should have been busy preparing for the start of the new semester.
Looking at her two busy children who came to pick her up from the hospital, Fang Hua felt full of guilt: "It's all my fault. I've made sure you didn't even have a proper New Year."
Jiang Zhizhi smiled and hugged her: "Mom, you can't say that. As long as our family is together, it's New Year's Day no matter where we are."
Fang Hua patted Jiang Zhizhi's hand tenderly: "Look how thin your face has become. When I get better, I'll cook you something delicious to help you recover."
Jiang Zhizhi quickly waved her hand: "That won't do, you'll need to take a long time to recover."
Zhou Chengzhi, who had been mostly silent, said, "I will go to the grassroots level less often in the future. I will take care of you at home, and then I will find a suitable nanny so that she can take care of you when I am not at home."
Fang Hua remained silent. To be fair, Zhou Chengzhi's behavior during this hospitalization was far beyond her expectations.
Although clumsy, he was patient enough, and although his tone was sharp, it was also caring.
He was an awkward and stubborn old man.
Jiang Zhizhi smiled as she looked at Zhou Chengzhi, whose behavior these past few days had surprised her.
She wouldn't let anyone help her with anything, from cleaning up after her tofeeding and urinating to wiping her body, and she insisted on having someone stay with her at night.
Fang Hua also secretly told Jiang Zhizhi that Zhou Chengzhi had touched her nose several times at night, as if he was afraid she would stop breathing.
It seems that Fang Hua really gave Zhou Chengzhi a fright this time, but they still haven't changed their habit of bickering.
Fang Hua wasn't particularly pleased with Zhou Chengzhi's words. He snorted coldly, "You should go to the grassroots level more often. All you do is annoy people at home."
Zhou Chengzhi glared at him: "I'm infuriating, why don't you yell at me? Aren't you supposed to be so capable? Besides, who will take care of you when I'm not home? Is a nanny guaranteed to be attentive? Zhizhi is busy with school too."
Fang Hua glanced at him but ignored him.
The family of four went home together.
Zhou Chengzhi's younger sister, Zhou Chengyu, was already home. She had made soup and cooked a meal, and had also burned a pot of mugwort at the door.
Shouting, Zhou Chengzhi carried Fang Hua over and said, "You must get rid of this bad luck so that you can live a peaceful and healthy life from now on."
Zhou Chengzhi muttered about feudal superstition, but his feet actually stepped over it.
Zhou Chengyu then swept a handful of mugwort over Fang Hua's body, saying, "Get rid of the old and welcome the new. Leave all your illnesses and misfortunes outside and come home healthy."
A small wooden single bed was placed by the window in the living room, with the bedding neatly made up.
Zhou Chengzhi placed Fang Hua on the small bed, and Zhou Chengyu went over and put pillows and blankets behind Fang Hua, saying with a smile, "There must be a lot of people coming to see you these days, and it's inconvenient for them to all come upstairs. So Xiye and I discussed it and decided to put a small bed here so you can rest here during the day, with so many people keeping you company."
Fang Hua felt even more embarrassed: "Look at me, I've ruined your New Year celebrations."
Zhou Chengyu didn't care: "What's the big deal? Coming here is like going back to my parents' home. I can take this opportunity to stay a little longer."
"By the way, I also heard that you and my brother got divorced? You two are quite fashionable for your age!"
Fang Hua was a little embarrassed, and Zhou Chengzhi glared at her: "You talk too much, hurry up and go make the food..."
