Chapter 228 The Picked-Up Child



Liang Dingxiang held her son's hand and looked at Su Yan pleadingly: "Master, please save my son."

Until now, she dared not leave her son's side, for fear that he would suddenly leave her like the children before him.

Su Yan looked at the woman in the crowd who had a concerned expression but a sinister look in her eyes: "Your son's life is not in danger for the time being. You can let him go and talk slowly."

The woman reluctantly let go of her son's hand, but still sat one meter away from her son.

"Master, the child on the bed is not my biological son. My husband and I picked him up while working in the fields.

He was three years old when I picked him up. Perhaps because he was too frightened, he only had memories of being abducted.

According to him, he was taken away from his home by a man in flowery clothes.

But he has no memory of where his home is, what his parents look like, or what their phone number is.

At that time, my child had just passed away. Overwhelmed with grief, I did not go to the police station to report the case. Instead, I chose to keep the child for myself and regard him as God's compensation to me.

It was my selfishness that made him become what he is now.

All I hope now is that if the audience on the other side of the phone recognizes that this is your child, you will come over and take him away.

I can guarantee that I will not ask you for the expenses he spent here, you just need to ask him to call me occasionally,

Only if he leaves our house can he have a chance to survive."

[Anyone in the family search group? Please send your child's photo to the group. You might be able to save a family.]

[This family isn't exactly bad people. After all, if it weren't for them, the child might have died in the wilderness. So, their merits and demerits can be considered balanced.]

[Now is not the time to discuss who is right or wrong. Saving the child's life is the top priority.]

[I'm just curious about what she said. Is there a reason why her family isn't suitable for having children?]

After the woman finished telling the story of the child, she began to recount the sad things that had happened to her.

“I got pregnant the second year after my husband and I got married.

With the joint expectations of my husband and my in-laws, I gave birth to a son, who is also the first boy in my husband's generation.

Since he was born, my status in the family has improved a lot and I have some say.

After I took care of him until he was two, I became pregnant again.

This time my family was even happier because I was pregnant with twins.

When the doctor announced the good news, my husband, who usually never showed his emotions, jumped for joy. He didn't care about his image and hugged me and spun around in front of many patients.

For this baby, we did not check their gender, thinking that since we already had a son, it would not be so important whether the next one was a boy or a girl.

When the day of delivery came, I was blessed by God again and gave birth to two boys.

Master, just think about what a great honor this is in our village. Even though they don’t say it, I can see envy and jealousy of me from their eyes.

During that period, our family was extremely popular and many people from the same village came to ask me for the secret to having a boy.

Those newly married young wives also came over to touch my belly in order to share in the good luck.

Master, you don’t know how glorious I was at that time.

At that time, I just hoped that days like this would last longer, long enough for me to have enough memories to remember them in the future.”

Liang Dingxiang smiled and said, "I know many people cannot understand my thoughts, but this is the environment I live in.

In our village, boys with more talents have a solid foundation to stand on.

The elders in the village often say, "We have many children, so when we have a fight, there will be someone to hold our clothes and cheer us on."

Maybe it was because I was too happy and too proud, but my first son suddenly passed away when I was in confinement.

Without any warning, when my mother-in-law was feeding him, he suddenly vomited blood and died without saying a word.

After the accident with our first child, we took great care of our two newborns, but despite all our precautions, we were unable to stop the children from passing away.

On a warm afternoon, one of my lovely twins fell from the upstairs and the other fell into the river.

In just one hour, they and I were separated forever.

After my child died, I was devastated and a fortune teller came to my door.

He was different from the men I had met before. It was as if he was waiting for me at my door on purpose.

After seeing me come out, he performed some random rituals at the door, and then told me that my husband and I were destined to have no children, and no matter how many children we had, they would all die due to various accidents.

For my husband's family, who valued offspring, this was undoubtedly a death sentence for me.

Fortunately, my husband treated me well and refused my mother-in-law's request to divorce me.

After meeting his adopted son in the wild, my husband wanted to send him away because he was worried about the Taoist priest's prediction.

But I think this is an opportunity given to me by God. After all, the Taoist priest said that I cannot have biological children, but he did not say that I cannot have adopted children.

After I brought him home, he turned out to be healthier than my biological son and never got sick once.

When he got over the three-year mark, I was so excited: I finally made the right bet.

Even if fate makes me lonely in my old age, I can still turn things around and enjoy the joy of raising children from other places.

But accidents happen. Just when I was preparing to celebrate my child's birthday, he suddenly fainted and no matter how I called him, I couldn't wake him up.

It wasn't until today that I realized that destiny, predetermined by God, cannot be changed. Now my child and I have been punished.

I don't ask God to forgive me, I just ask him to give the innocent child a chance to live. Everything he has now is caused by my selfishness.

God, please let my child go. As long as he can grow up safely, I would rather never see him again in this life."

[There must be something hateful about a pitiful person. I don't know if she is a victim or a perpetrator.]

This person is truly stubborn. Three of her own children died, yet she still wouldn't let go of other people's children. Now, another weak child has perished because of your ridiculous maternal love.

[That's not the case. After all, the Taoist priest didn't explain it clearly, and no one knows that being childless also includes adopted children.]

[Anyway, if this child dies because of her selfishness, I really won't forgive her.]

Although Su Yan did not like her foolish thoughts, she also understood that this was caused by the area she lived in, and she could not vent her anger on the woman because of this.

"Ms. Liang, I can tell you categorically that everything the Taoist priest said was fabricated. There is nothing wrong with your and your husband's fate.

As for why all these accidents happen, you should ask the devil hiding beside you."
