Yu Qiuying was awakened by the cold. When she woke up, she was still lying on the ground, her head was dizzy, and her chest felt like it was being squeezed and hurting.
She shakily got up from the ground, went back to her room, found her phone, and called her eldest son. "Third son, I fell this morning, and my chest hurts terribly right now. Can you come back and take me to the hospital?"
"I can't get away today. It's Xiaolan's mother's 70th birthday, and I'm busy right now. If you need to go to the hospital, just go by yourself. I'm hanging up now." Zhou Jiadong not only didn't say a word of concern, but his tone was also very impatient. He hung up the phone after saying that.
Yu Qiuying was so angry that she almost couldn't catch her breath. Tears blurred her vision. Normally, she would have already started cursing, but at this moment, her chest hurt so badly that she could hardly breathe.
She rubbed her chest, her hands trembling as she dialed her second daughter Zhou Caiping's number. "Caiping, my chest hurts so much, could you come back and come with me to the hospital..."
"I don't have time to go back. Weiwei's school is on holiday, and I have to pick her up from the train station in a bit. Why don't you call your son and ask him to come with you? I have to go now, I'm busy." Zhou Caiping said impatiently and hung up the phone.
Yu Qiuying's tears fell down in a steady stream. Those two heartless bastards! It's one thing that they never come back to see their mother, but now that she's not feeling well, neither of them can be called, and they haven't even offered a single word of concern!
What a waste of money raising them!
Yu Qiuying took a breath and had no choice but to call her youngest daughter, Zhou Caixiang, but all she heard was a message that the phone was switched off.
At this moment, Yu Qiuying was overcome with grief, feeling both angry and resentful.
Yu Qiuying was strong-willed her whole life, but in her old age she ended up with a miserable end!
Yu Qiuying couldn't help but recall her life of toil.
She married at nineteen, had five children, and lost her husband at thirty-three. She single-handedly raised her five children with great hardship.
She thought she could finally relax after her children grew up, but in the end, she worried about them her whole life. What's worse, she didn't get a good ending.
The eldest daughter, Zhou Cailian, had a bad life. She married three times and had a lot of biological children, stepchildren, and other relatives, but in the end, none of them were close to her. Her biological children resented her for not fulfilling her responsibilities as a mother, while her stepchildren resented her for favoring her own biological children.
She toiled her whole life, and was also abused by her second husband when she was young. Her health collapsed when she was only in her forties, and she passed away far before her, a mother.
The second daughter, Zhou Caiping, was competitive and ambitious from a young age, always comparing herself to her two younger brothers. She resented her mother for favoring her brothers and always went against her. When she got married, she refused to listen to advice and impulsively married herself off. Later, when she had a bad life, she blamed her mother for it.
The third son, Zhou Jiadong, was also the eldest grandson of the Zhou family. Because she had given birth to two daughters in a row, she was scolded by her mother-in-law for three whole years as a hen that couldn't lay eggs. So after giving birth to this son, she did favor him a little. But in the end, it was this son who hurt her the most.
When the third son was twenty-one, he fell in love with the sickly Zhong Xiaolan. Zhong Xiaolan was beautiful, but she was in poor health and had to take medicine all year round. She already disagreed with the third son marrying Zhong Xiaolan, and when the other party's parents insisted on a dowry of one thousand yuan, she was even more opposed to the marriage.
The third brother argued with her several times about this matter. In the end, he threatened her that if she didn't raise enough money to marry Zhong Xiaolan, he would become a live-in son-in-law. She had no choice but to grit her teeth and raise the money to bring his wife back.
But what happened? Not only did they empty their savings to marry him off to this wife, but they also incurred a huge debt. What's worse, Zhong Xiaolan wasn't a good person either. She was sickly all day long, did nothing, and was a troublemaker who made the house never peaceful.
Zhong Xiaolan became pregnant after three years of marriage, but miscarried in less than three months. Her heartless mother then slandered her, saying that she was the one who caused the miscarriage. What's infuriating is that the third son actually believed Zhong Xiaolan's words and resented her as his mother ever since.
The youngest daughter, Zhou Caixiang, was the most successful of all her children. She went to high school and then university, and after graduation, she was assigned to teach at the county's central primary school. However, her mother was selfish and self-serving. She had raised her for so long without giving anything in return and even looked down on her as her mother.
The youngest son, Zhou Jiahong, was mischievous and troublesome from a young age. When he was fifteen or sixteen, he became even more unruly and rebellious. At the age of seventeen, he dared to have an affair with a widow, and was eventually extorted by her, ruining his reputation.
He finally managed to get married at the age of 28, but after five years of marriage, he discovered that neither of his two children were his biological children. In a fit of rage, his younger son killed the mother and her two children, and then ate peanuts.
