Chapter 76 Jiang Danyue asks Liang Xiulan for help
Liang Xiulan stood in front of the pot, looking at the two people in the distance from time to time.
The two chatted for a long time, and then Chen Heisan suddenly left.
Jiang Jinzhou strode back with one hand in his pocket and asked Liang Xiulan with his head tilted.
"How did I perform this time?"
Liang Xiulan asked curiously, "What did you tell him?"
"I said, if you're eating, pay for it. If you don't, get out. Then he got out!"
Hearing this, Liang Xiulan was very pleased. She raised her hand and rubbed his head as a reward. Jiang Jinzhou stepped back with a bitter face.
"Don't mess up my hair. I spent a long time combing it this morning."
Liang Xiulan rolled her eyes when she heard this: "Tsk, so conceited."
He is really vain and cares a lot about his image. He changes his clothes every day. Even though they are work clothes, he must wear clean ones.
Take a shower three times a day in summer, whenever you sweat.
Every time I go out, I have to comb my hair and polish my shoes.
His mother's official evaluation was: "She spends more time getting ready to go out than she did giving birth to a child. It's like she's entering the imperial palace for a beauty pageant."
The evening's business soon came to an end.
After seeing off Yang Jinbao and his wife, they began to pack up their stall.
The four of them packed up their stall very quickly.
Jiang Jinzhou was worried about his sister, so after putting all the things in the dormitory, he took Liang Xiulan to the hospital.
There was no one to accompany him in the ward.
Only Jiang Danyue was lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling with empty eyes. The child in her arms was waving his little fists and humming from time to time, but she didn't even look at him.
Liang Xiulan initially judged that this mental state might be depression.
Jiang Jinzhou strode in and asked Jiang Danyue, "Where are the others? Where did they go?"
A tear fell from the corner of Jiang Danyue's eye, and she said in a steady voice, "They've all gone home..."
"Go home? What are you going to do then?"
"Oh! I'm in the hospital, there are nurses, what am I afraid of?
Besides, didn’t you say you’d come after stewing the pig’s trotters? Mom said you’re not working, so you can stay here to take care of me…”
There was a dead tone in her voice, without a trace of emotion, like the kind of person who had reached despair and was indifferent to everything.
Jiang Jinzhou never thought that his mother would ask him to serve his own sister.
What kind of weird idea is this? Jiang Danyue is still in confinement after giving birth!
He felt resentful but didn't dare to say anything because he also noticed that something was wrong with his elder sister and was afraid of saying something wrong and making her unhappy.
"Um...the doctor said you can't eat pig's trotters, so I didn't make it for you. When did they leave? Have you eaten yet?"
Jiang Danyue said calmly, "They left half an hour after you left..."
Half an hour after he left, that is, four o'clock.
Yes, they have to go back and pick up Jiang Lei from school.
But it's already nine o'clock, which means no one has taken care of her for five hours?
As for food, needless to say, no one would prepare it for her.
Jiang Jinzhou took a deep breath, feeling indescribably depressed and sad in his heart.
He shook his head, looked around the ward to divert his attention, and then looked at Liang Xiulan again.
Before he could speak, Liang Xiulan said, "Go buy your sister some food. I'll talk to her and check on her health."
“Remember to buy something that’s easy to digest.”
Jiang Jinzhou nodded gratefully, pursed his lips and strode out.
After the door was closed, Liang Xiulan moved a stool and sat beside Jiang Danyue's bed.
Just as she was hesitating how to ask, Jiang Danyue suddenly turned around and grabbed her arm.
"Liang Xiulan! Someone wants to harm me! Zhou Yun wants to harm me! Please save me!"
Now, Liang Xiulan is certain that she not only suffers from postpartum depression, but may also have a more serious mental illness.
The child's entire body was pressed under her, but she didn't care at all.
Liang Xiulan quickly stood up and reached out to push her back onto the bed.
"Don't get excited yet. Talk carefully. I'll listen carefully."
After saying that, he looked down at the child who had obviously lost two sizes, and hugged him in his arms with heartache.
She was worried that Jiang Danyue would go crazy and throw the child to death. This kind of situation had been shown on TV.
For some reason, Jiang Danyue listened to her and lay down on the bed obediently, starting to breathe heavily, as if she was frightened by something.
It took her two minutes to recover.
"Zhou Yun...want to harm me..."
"My mother... also wants to harm me..."
"Shen Jun doesn't care about me..."
"My mother-in-law doesn't care about me..."
"I'm so pitiful..."
When she said this, she still had no expression, as if she was talking to herself while watching TV.
Liang Xiulan asked, "Why do you say Zhou Yun wants to harm you? She's your sister-in-law."
Hearing this, Jiang Danyue began to sneer. There was no strong reaction, but it gave people a sense of desolation.
"Didn't you say it before? My mother took care of me during my confinement and didn't take care of her child, so she hates me."
"You told me not to eat chicken, but she said eating chicken is good for the children and for me."
"You said the baby needed water, and she said a breastfed baby didn't need water."
"You said the wound should be cleaned frequently, but she said that if you wash it too much, the flesh around the wound will become fragile and sensitive, which is not conducive to repair."
"I felt that everything she said made sense. Even when she asked me to eat fish all day, she said it was for my own good."
"I thought she was really doing it for my own good, but the doctor said I couldn't eat fish or meat, and the wound needed to be cleaned regularly."
"Tell me, is she deliberately trying to hurt me? She wants me dead, right?"
"Hehehe... the doctor just finished saying I should avoid meat and fish, and my mom wants me to eat pig's trotters. Zhou Yun is still urging me to eat pig's trotters every day, saying that eating pig's trotters every day will increase milk production!"
"But I have milk! It just won't flow out. What can I do?
This thing is so swollen and painful that even turning over is unbearable. Why is this happening?"
She tilted her head to question Liang Xiulan, her eyes full of resentment.
Liang Xiulan patted the child and said, "You must be suffering from milk accumulation! You need to drain it out instead of continuing to produce milk. Is your milk duct blocked?"
Hearing this, Jiang Danyue burst into tears immediately. She excitedly turned over and crawled to the bed, holding Liang Xiulan's hand.
He sobbed and his body shook like a sieve.
After a long while, he said, "The doctor said exactly the same thing..."
"I knew you wouldn't hurt me!"
"What you said is exactly the same as what the doctor said, only you won't hurt me!"
"When I was at your house, I knew that every consideration you mentioned was for my sake. I knew it all in my heart, but they only considered the child!"
"I was only worried that my children weren't eating enough or eating well. No one ever asked me if I was doing well..."
"I'm in so much pain, Liang Xiulan... Do you know? I've wanted to strangle the child so many times!"
"Why did I give birth to this child and suffer this pain..."
Her mental state really frightened Liang Xiulan.
She struggled to free her hand, carefully protecting the child in her arms, and retreated calmly, fearing that she would really reach out and strangle the child to death the next moment.
But she also felt that their fates were surprisingly similar.
In her previous life, she also had milk accumulation to the point of almost having a mental breakdown. When her child couldn't get enough to eat, Xue Shuzhen said she had no milk and started giving her all kinds of milk-inducing soups.
It wasn't until she ended up in the hospital that she finally came to her senses.
But she was much luckier than Jiang Danyue. She didn't have gout, and Jiang Jinzhou was by her side.
Although Jiang Jinzhou didn't understand anything, when he saw Liang Xiulan was unhappy, he would patiently coax her.
He usually stays away from home, but at critical times like this, he will help take care of the children.
When she was hospitalized with a fever, Liang Xiujuan and Liu Guizhi would also come to accompany her.
But what about Jiang Danyue? At this moment, she was the only one fighting alone in her position.
Liang Xiulan wanted to persuade her to be more open-minded, but she couldn't say it.
She still can't let go of the postpartum grudge fifty years ago, so what right does she have to persuade Jiang Danyue?
