After a tense rescue, Zhou Xiaonian stopped convulsing. She was given two more IV drips, and her fever gradually subsided. She even asked to drink water.
Liang Guiying deftly fed the little girl hot water and helped her change into dry clothes. Seeing that Zhou Yue's lips were chapped, she reminded Zhou Yue to drink hot water.
Zhou Yue drank hot water, and her icy body slowly warmed up.
She clutched the enamel mug, still shaken.
If Liang Guiying hadn't insisted on taking Xiaonian to the hospital, she wouldn't have known what to do with Xiaonian's high fever and convulsions.
Zheng Fangshu betrayed her, let her down, and abandoned Xiaonian, yet Liang Guiying saved Xiaonian twice.
Seeing Liang Guiying coaxing Zhou Xiaonian softly, Zhou Yue lowered her head, unwilling to think about it anymore.
Liang Guiying was unaware of Zhou Yue's dilemma. Seeing that Zhou Yue had finished drinking the hot water, she handed the child back to Zhou Yue: "Sleep with her. Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on her, nothing will go wrong."
Zhou Yue bit her lip, swallowed all her words, and lay down with her daughter in her arms.
The long night is finally over.
As dawn broke, the little girl woke up, touching her tummy and saying she was hungry.
Liang Guiying touched her forehead; it was warm. She breathed a sigh of relief, gave Zhou Yue a few words of advice, and then planned to go outside to buy two breakfasts.
Just then, Mr. and Mrs. Zhong arrived, bringing breakfast.
There were steamed buns and fried dough sticks, as well as minced meat and vegetable porridge.
As soon as the insulated lunchbox was opened, the aroma of minced meat and vegetables filled the air.
Zhou Xiaonian was already hungry, and the smell of meat made his mouth water. He pointed at the porridge and exclaimed, "Eat, eat every year!"
Aunt Zhong smiled and said, "This is what your auntie cooked for Niannian. Niannian should eat more so she can get better soon, okay?"
"Yes! Get well soon!" The little girl nodded vigorously, then looked at Liang Guiying, "Grandma, Niannian, have some porridge!"
Liang Guiying originally wanted to decline, but seeing this, she didn't pretend anymore.
"Alright, we'll eat porridge every year." Liang Guiying picked up a bowl and filled it with porridge. "Say thank you, Auntie!"
"Thank you, Auntie!"
Liang Guiying fed the little girl a couple of bites, then turned around and saw Zhou Yue still standing there in a daze, so she casually stuffed a bun into her hand.
Zhou Yue held the steamed bun, at a loss.
She was so terrified of being beaten and scolded by her great-aunt since she was a child that she no longer dared to accept other people's kindness.
Aunt Zhong's eyes reddened: "You silly girl, why didn't you tell your Uncle Zhong when you were bullied by Fourth Aunt? If it weren't for the fact that the old woman was scared by Grandma Niannian last night and cried out that she had abused you and Niannian, the whole airport living area would not have known that you and your daughter had suffered so much."
Zhou Yue exclaimed in disbelief: "Grandma Si herself admitted it? How is that possible?!"
"Many people saw and heard it last night, so how could it be false? Don't worry, Grandma Niannian has already chased that old hag away, and she won't be able to bully you and Niannian anymore."
Zhou Yue immediately turned to look at Liang Guiying, her eyes filled with complex emotions.
Liang Guiying coughed lightly: "Only someone like Fourth Aunt can be dealt with by someone like me. This is what they mean by 'the wicked need another wicked person to deal with them.'"
Aunt Zhong chuckled: "Grandma Niannian, you're not a bad person, nor are you as difficult to get along with as Niannian's father said. I like being with straightforward people like you."
Liang Guiying felt ashamed.
She, Liang Guiying, is straightforward and honest, but she gave birth to a terrible son!
Speaking of her scumbag son Zheng Fangshu, Liang Guiying remembered something very important, so after breakfast, she asked Zhou Yue to go out with her to wash the dishes.
When they reached a secluded corner, Liang Guiying stopped and said, "I'm going to the boiler factory in a bit to get back everything I brought from home yesterday, for you and Niannian to eat."
"As for the rest... Zheng Fangshu has been cheating on you during our marriage. He might be on top of someone else one second and then coming to hug you the next..."
Having survived last night, although the feeling of not being able to go on living and wanting to die was gone, Zhou Yue was still very sad.
But now...
