Chapter 668 Divorced
It was quite early and it wasn't a big holiday, so there weren't many cars on the highway.
There were three cars connected one after another, all driving very fast.
In less than four hours, the group arrived at the hospital in W City.
As soon as he entered the ward and saw the person on the bed, Li Xu fainted.
Li Miao let out a wail and rushed forward.
It turned out that Li Zhiming lying on the hospital bed had already changed into his funeral clothes.
People are only put into funeral clothes after they die.
Li Yong and Li Lei were both in the ward. Li Lei had a wound on his face. Both brothers requested to be in a coma.
When they saw Li Xu and Li Miao coming back, the two brothers seemed to come back to their senses.
Li Xu also woke up quickly, and the four brothers and sisters surrounded Li Zhiming and cried together.
Ji Yuanyuan's eyes were red and she looked around.
Why are all my cousins, grandma and two aunts missing?
Just at this moment, Qin Xiaomin came over from the other side of the corridor with a pile of bills.
When she saw those people at the door of the ward, she burst into tears out of grievance.
She took a few steps forward, hugged Li Xu and started crying: "Big sister, you are finally back."
Zhang Kun saw this and stepped forward to ask, "Where's our mother?"
Qin Xiaomin then said, "Our mother fainted and hasn't woken up yet in the ward. Several children are accompanying her in the ward. The hospital has been urging me to apply for a death certificate and contact the funeral home. I..."
Zhang Kun quickly said, "Give me all the things, Xiao Gong and I will do it."
There is no point in saying too much now. We should finish the old man’s funeral as soon as possible.
Qin Xiaomin handed all the documents to Zhang Kun and whispered, "I have already made the arrangements. According to our rules, our father must be allowed to return home and his body can only be cremated after three days. It's hot now, so we need ice cubes, but I haven't found any yet..."
Qin Xiaomin couldn't continue talking.
Over the years, she has truly treated her parents-in-law as her own parents.
"Our father was fine, why did he just..." Li Miao was a little confused and asked with a sob.
Qin Xiaomin glanced at Li Lei subconsciously, and then said, "The hospital has urged us several times. Let's go home first and talk about it after we get home."
If the person is dead, the hospital generally does not allow you to stay any longer.
Even if he was allowed to stay, he would be placed in the morgue.
They didn't want to cause any trouble for the hospital staff, so they kept dragging Li Zhiming's body.
Zhang Kun nodded and said immediately: "I'll contact Bingkuai."
An hour later, everyone returned home.
The neighbors also came to help, and soon everyone was in mourning.
At this moment, Li Lei, who had been silent all the time, finally spoke.
"Our father is gone because of me."
Li Xu looked at Li Lei in astonishment, somewhat incredulous.
Li Miao finally reacted: "Where's my sister-in-law? Why can't I see her? My father is gone, why didn't she come to see him off?"
Li Lei whispered: "We two...are divorced!"
When these words were spoken, everyone was stunned.
Ever since Li Xu and her family moved to City B, she has been unable to take care of her mother's family affairs.
She didn't know when things between Xiaolei and Xiaoning had come to this point.
"What is going on?" Li Xu asked in a deep voice.
"Her clothing store has been losing money all the time. I advised her to close the store, but she wouldn't listen. She ended up losing three or four hundred thousand yuan. Although my store makes money, it can't withstand the way she loses money. The children are grown up and need money everywhere. I'm really scared..." Li Lei lowered his head in pain and said in a low voice.
"We got a divorce certificate but didn't tell our family. Li Xiang is mine and Li Jie is hers. My father found out about our divorce last night and scolded me. I didn't take it seriously at the time, but this morning when my mother woke up she found that my father was unconscious."
Li Yong sobbed beside him and said, "It was a cerebral hemorrhage. The doctors tried to save him for more than three hours, but he still couldn't be saved."
Li Xu listened to what the two brothers said, and for a moment, he didn't know who to blame.
Did Li Lei do anything wrong? He had endured for so many years and finally mustered up the courage to break free from this quagmire, but who knew that his father would be so angry that he would have a cerebral hemorrhage?
Did Meng Xiaoning do anything wrong? She just got a divorce certificate and took away her beloved youngest son.
Li Xu just felt a tightness in her chest. She raised her hand and patted her chest hard.
Seeing this, Zhang Kun and Qin Xiaomin reached out to pull her hands at the same time.
"Sister, please don't be like this. Our father is gone and we are all sad." Qin Xiaomin cried, "If our father is still alive, he would definitely not want to see you like this."
Li Xu cried and said, "I didn't even see my father for the last time. How can I live in the future..."
Qin Xiaomin hugged her arms: "Our father won't blame you, he definitely won't blame you."
In the yard, Ji Yuanyuan looked at the adults' depressed expressions and turned her face away with some reluctance.
Qin Mucheng patted her shoulder and whispered, "Grandpa didn't die in pain."
Ji Yuanyuan nodded and murmured, "It's just that it happened too suddenly..."
It was so sudden. They had video chatted a few days ago.
Grandpa smiled so brightly in the video, how could he just be gone?
Qin Mucheng didn't know how to comfort Ji Yuanyuan, so he just reached out and hugged her.
Ji Yuanyuan buried her head in Qin Mucheng's shoulder and sobbed silently.
The village was full of kind people, and many came and went to pay their respects.
Li Xu and his two siblings were extremely sad, so Zhang Kun and Gong Wenbai could only take on the responsibility of welcoming and seeing off the guests.
When Qin Xiaomin came out, Zhang Kun took the opportunity to smell: "Where's Meng Xiaoning? Does she know that our father is gone?"
Qin Xiaomin nodded with a complicated expression: "I called her."
Zhang Kun asked again: "What did she say?"
Qin Xiaomin shook her head: "Nothing."
Obviously, she was extremely disappointed with Meng Xiaoning.
After all, I have been in this family for so many years.
Even our father-in-law passed away, and we didn’t even come to see him?
What's more, she was closely related to her father-in-law's death.
Ji Yuanyuan was not far away and heard the conversation between Zhang Kun and Qin Xiaomin.
She pursed her lips and whispered, "Why is my uncle so unlucky?"
I have only had two romances in my life, one with Liang Yufang and the other with Meng Xiaoning.
My uncle is such a good man, why can’t he meet a good woman?
On the contrary, my second uncle is much luckier than my eldest uncle.
My second uncle is so unreliable, but he still found such a good wife like my second aunt.
Qin Mucheng didn't know how to comment, so he just kept his mouth shut.
At this time, Ji Yuanyuan couldn't help at all and could only stay by the side.
It was almost noon when Li Xiang and Li Nian came back with Liu Guihua.
Liu Guihua looked a few years older. She staggered over and started crying.
Li Xiang and Li Nian, two thirteen-year-old children, looked like adults at this time.
The two people looked at the coffin parked in the middle of the living room with red eyes.
