Fortunately, when she was about to give up, she happened to meet a neighbor grandmother. The grandmother saw a little girl alone in the vegetable market and wanted to ask if she needed help, but when she walked up to her, she recognized her immediately.
"Eh? Isn't this Xiao Xiachu? Why are you here? Where's your mother?"
As soon as the neighbor grandmother walked forward, she recognized the little girl's face, looked surprised, and reached out to rub her head.
Jiang Xiachu cried so hard but she didn't dare to make any sound. When she saw the familiar face, she couldn't hold it back anymore.
“Wuwuwu——”
"Grandma Chen..."
The little girl cried so hard that she convulsed and even her words were unclear. Her big, bright eyes were swollen from crying, and even the tip of her nose was red.
When Grandma Chen saw the little girl looking so aggrieved, her heart softened immediately. She felt so distressed.
She bent down, held the little girl's hand with her rough hands, and comforted her, "Don't cry, don't cry. Did you get lost?"
Jiang Xiachu nodded while crying, "Mom...Mom is gone."
Grandma Chen sighed repeatedly, feeling particularly distressed. She held the little girl's hand and walked out of the vegetable market, "Xia Chu, be good. Grandma will take you home. Don't be afraid. There are no bad guys anymore."
"We'll be home soon..."
“Don’t be afraid…”
Grandma Chen took Jiang Xiachu back home with her, her tone particularly gentle as she tried to soothe her emotions.
From what Jiang Xiachu said, she also knew what had happened.
Jiang Hongyan brought her to buy vegetables, but ended up leaving her daughter in the vegetable market.
She is a neighbor of the He family. Although she doesn't interact with Jiang Hongyan much on weekdays, she roughly knows when she usually goes out to buy groceries.
According to the normal time, the little girl estimated that she had been left here for two or three hours.
I haven't seen anyone coming to look for him yet. He is so carefree!
Grandma Chen complained about Jiang Hongyan in her heart, and felt even more distressed for the little girl.
Jiang Xiachu had not yet recovered from the fear and anxiety she had just felt. She looked at the path in front of her, raised her head and looked at Grandma Chen, her voice still tearful: "Grandma Chen, you are an adult, tell me, does mommy dislike me or love me?"
The little girl's clear eyes were filled with sparkling light, which softened Grandma Chen's heart.
She immediately shook her head heavily and flatly denied Jiang Xiachu's words, "No! That's not it!"
Jiang Xiachu bit her lower lip and wiped her face with her little hand, "Then why did she abandon me? Other people's mothers would not be like this..."
The further the little girl spoke, the smaller her voice became.
Grandma Chen raised her hand to hold the little girl's face, pinched her chin, and comforted her: "Xia Chu, there is no mother in this world who doesn't love her daughter."
"She must love you, but this is her first time being a mother, and she doesn't know how to love you yet."
It was because of Grandma Chen’s words that Jiang Xiachu always believed that her mother must love her.
But her grandmother didn't tell her at that time that there are several kinds of love from her mother.
She didn't want this kind of love.
Jiang Xiachu raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Hongyan who was at the door. His eyes became calmer. He closed his eyes and said indifferently, "Go back. Since I said I'm breaking up with you, I won't look back."
"Next time you come, we won't open the door for you, so don't make a scene."
"You don't want to embarrass yourself, do you?"
Her words were as calm as water, without a trace of ripples. After hearing them, Jiang Hongyan's face froze.
She opened her eyes wide and looked at Jiang Xiachu's expression, which seemed extremely strange no matter how she looked at it.
She just said something that really expressed her true feelings, so why did Jiang Xiachu still look so indifferent?
If this had happened in the past, she would have definitely been soft-hearted, felt sorry for her, wouldn't have been angry with her anymore, and might even have apologized to her.
Jiang Hongyan let out a long breath.
Jiang Xiachu remained motionless, looking at her with cold eyes, showing no intention of forgiving her.
Seeing her cold and indifferent appearance, Jiang Hongyan suddenly felt uneasy, as if her heart was blocked and she felt more and more uncomfortable.
After all, she was the daughter she raised.
Now, he treats me with a cold and hostile attitude, and there is no family affection at all.
Jiang Hongyan's face was pale and she even had difficulty breathing. She looked at Jiang Xiachu with red eyes and felt more and more regretful.
No matter what, Jiang Xiachu was raised by her.
Even though she always took her anger out on that man, it would be a lie to say that she had no feelings for him at all over the years.
After all, she is also a flesh and blood person.
Her thoughts became more and more confused, and Jiang Hongyan's heart ached a little.
When she was sick in the past, Jiang Xiachu always stayed by her side to take care of her, but now he is completely disappointed in her and doesn't care about her health at all.
Just when Fang Yingqiu was feeling puzzled and picked up a broom beside her, wanting to drive the person out, Jiang Hongyan's face suddenly turned pale.
Her hands, which were clinging to the door, slowly slid down, and her body went limp as if it had no bones to support it, and she fell straight backwards.
At this moment, Jiang Hongyan suddenly felt her head become very heavy and her eyelids seemed to be filled with lead. She could not open them no matter what and her consciousness became blurred.
I don't know when I completely lost consciousness.
"Hey! You!"
"This is a scam!"
Fang Yingqiu was also frightened by Jiang Hongyan's sudden fainting on the ground, and quickly bent down and patted her shoulder, "Wake up!"
“Stop pretending!”
Originally, they wanted to completely cut off their relationship with the He family, but they didn't expect Jiang Hongyan to suddenly come to their door and lie on the ground without saying a word.
This feeling is to find a knife for her.
Fang Yingqiu looked at her speechlessly, but there was nothing she could do about her at the moment.
When Jiang Xiachu saw Jiang Hongyan faint, he rushed over immediately.
Although she is not a doctor and cannot treat patients, you can tell from her appearance that she is not pretending.
His face was pale as if he was sick.
After shouting and patting Jiang Hongyan several times, there was no response. Afraid that something might happen to her, they did not dare to delay. The three of them frantically struggled and finally lifted her up with great effort.
Several of the steamed buns that I brought in the basket fell to the ground, and were covered with mud and water, making me look particularly miserable.
Jiang Hongyan was not fat, but she was not light at all, so it was somewhat difficult for them to lift her.
Aunt Du was originally busy doing handicrafts next door when she suddenly heard a noise coming from the side.
Because it was drizzling outside, the sound was a bit vague and hard to hear clearly.
But it can also be confirmed that someone has definitely come from Fang Yingqiu's home.
As Aunt Du went out with an umbrella, she saw three people carrying Jiang Hongyan with great effort, and her face was filled with surprise.
"Oh my god, what the hell?"
