Recalling the past brings back another painful memory.
She damaged her health when she was pregnant with her first child when she was young, and it was difficult for her to conceive again. After giving birth to her second child, she cherished her even more.
Unexpectedly, she became pregnant again.
She was already quite old at that time, and even the doctor said that this pregnancy might be dangerous. But she had finally had the chance to become a mother again, how could she bear to take the child away?
She was determined to give birth to this child.
After ten months of pregnancy, she gave birth to her youngest daughter.
After having two rascals, she suddenly had a sweet little girl by her side, and you can imagine how happy she was.
At that time, her second child was still young and needed someone to take care of him. She was simply overwhelmed with the task of caring for both children on her own.
But by then the eldest son was already quite old, so he left the second son to be raised by the eldest son, while he and his wife took care of their youngest daughter.
Not long after giving birth, she had a craving for something different that day. Her husband happily went out to buy it, while she lay on the hospital bed, too sleepy to stay awake, and fell asleep.
I just took a nap, but when I woke up, it felt like the sky had fallen. My little daughter was lying next to me when I went to sleep, but when I woke up, she was just a pillow!
My youngest daughter is missing!
This news was like a bolt from the blue for her.
If my husband hadn't been halfway there when he suddenly felt uneasy and rushed back to check on me and wake me up, I probably wouldn't have known that my youngest daughter was missing.
She couldn't understand how she could have no feeling at all after just taking a nap.
An old traditional Chinese medicine doctor who happened to be visiting his granddaughter-in-law came by and realized that he had been drugged with a cheap sleeping potion, which is why he was able to sleep soundly.
But whatever the reason, the damage is irreversible: the daughter is missing.
He had an argument with his wife about this.
That was the first time they had argued in over twenty years of marriage. His wife pointed at him and yelled, "How tired were you? There was no one around to take care of you, and you still had to sleep at that time. You could sleep, but you were the only one in the ward. Didn't you know to get up and lock the door? What kind of mother are you? How could you let someone take your daughter away right under your nose!"
Her husband's words became increasingly harsh, and she could hardly remember what he said at the time. However, she clearly remembered that his words felt like a sharp knife stabbing into her heart, and even now, thinking about them still makes her feel a little painful.
The old man searched frantically in the hospital, rushing to every woman holding a child to see if it was his youngest daughter.
Many people mistook him for a madman and kept their distance, carrying their children. He rushed around the hospital, but in the end, he still couldn't find that familiar smiling face.
In the end, they called the police, but in those days, hospitals didn't have surveillance cameras, and there were many people coming and going. After searching around, they still couldn't find out who had taken the child.
This became a major worry for them.
Later, my husband heard a clue from someone and rushed over, but he got into a car accident on the way and died, leaving me all alone.
Years have passed, and their two sons have grown into adults. They both know that they have a younger sister who was taken away as a child and sold somewhere unknown. But they have never given up on finding that blood-related relative they have never met.
