Chapter 481 He Lived His Life Like a Living Dead

Jiang Duo seemed to be wrapped up in great sorrow.

For a whole month, his mental state was extremely unstable.

He couldn't work normally, and he just ate and drank mechanically every day, because he couldn't let himself die.

He also had to take care of Mingzhu, who could no longer open her eyes to look at him or respond to him, but could still accompany him for a long time.

It was in this state that Jiang Qi beat him up in the hospital that day.

That day, Jiang Qi pressed his face in front of Mingzhu and pointed at Mingzhu's face and questioned her.

"Did you see clearly? Your sister-in-law is still by your side, she is just...sick, she is still alive, she is still with you, Jiang Duo, in this family, you are the only one who can take good care of her, how long are you going to be so decadent? What she needs is a husband who can take care of her meticulously even when she is sick, not a useless man!"

Jiang Duo looked at Mingzhu for a long time, and finally pushed Jiang Qi away in a daze.

He arranged for Mingzhu to be discharged from the hospital and brought Mingzhu back to the courtyard.

He lived like a living dead, taking care of Mingzhu very carefully every day, cooking for her, crushing her into mud, and inserting a tube into her stomach bit by bit. He

boiled well water every day to help her bathe and massage her.

After the accident, his uncle's family came back to see Mingzhu after hearing the news. His aunt told him that long-term inactivity would cause muscle atrophy, and that she needed frequent massage to keep her body in its original state.

He bought a wheelchair, and when the weather was good, he would push Mingzhu out to bask in the sun. He could sit quietly beside Mingzhu, holding her hand without saying a word, and sit there for the whole day.

Of course, when he was unlucky, he would also run into Kang Jingzhi.

Whenever Kang Jingzhi saw Mingzhu, who had no vitality, he would stand two meters away, cursing him as a murderer and cursing him for harming Mingzhu.

This was also the only person who cursed him after Mingzhu's accident.

Listening to Kang Jingzhi's curses, he never refuted, because in his heart, he always believed that it was he who harmed his little girl.

He shouldn't have let Zhuzhu get pregnant.

He shouldn't have had a child.

If it wasn't because of the pregnancy, if it wasn't because he went out on a mission, but Mingzhu heard the bad news and got miscarried, Mingzhu might not have ended up like this.

It was him who harmed the person he loved the most.

But everyone, including the aunt who knew the truth and came to visit, was so painful and sad, and she hugged Mingzhu's body and cried until she almost fainted, but she never blamed him at all, which made him even more painful.

It was obviously him who did the wrong thing, but it was his little girl who had to bear the consequences.

So, when he met Kang Jingzhi, no matter how Kang Jingzhi cursed him, he never refuted.

As for the three children, Jiang Duo never had the courage to look at them...

He was afraid that he would unconsciously push his resentment onto the children.

But obviously, the children were innocent too.

In such contradictory pain, the four seasons rotated, summer went and autumn came.

Fang Shuyu brought Tian Hongxiu, Jiang Sui and the three children to the courtyard again.

This was the fourth time Jiang Duo had seen the children in three months.

The children grew up very fast and could already sit in the arms of an adult and look around.

The three brothers looked almost the same and wore the same clothes. People who usually took care of them could tell them apart, but Jiang Duo had seen them very little and really couldn't tell which was which.

Tian Hongxiu saw Jiang Duo's embarrassment and took the initiative to speak up to break the awkwardness: "Xiao Duo, your mother is holding the third child, I am holding the second child, and your sister is holding the eldest child. This month, the three children's personalities are obviously different. The eldest child is smart and loves to laugh. He is not afraid of anyone. The second child doesn't like to talk to people. The third child is very coquettish and likes to cry a lot. He is a little slow in character and likes to be held. He has to be cuddled when he sleeps."

The eldest child was very excited when he saw Jiang Duo. He sat in Jiang Sui's arms and bounced vigorously, stretching his arms to Jiang Duo.

Jiang Sui came to Jiang Duo with the eldest child in his arms, "Cousin, the little eldest child wants you to hold him."

Jiang Duo looked at the child and avoided his eyes: "I don't know how to hold a child."

The eldest child leaned towards Jiang Duo, and Jiang Duo helped him up. Jiang Sui took the opportunity to let go, and the child fell into Jiang Duo's hands.

Jiang Duo pinched the child's armpits with both hands, feeling even more embarrassed.

The child thought his father was playing games with him, so he lifted his legs and kicked rapidly, making the adults laugh. Only Jiang Duo looked very serious, but in fact he was troubled by him.

Jiang Sui was helpless when he saw this, so he had to go over and take the child back.

Fang Shuyu looked at Tian Hongxiu: "Sister-in-law, you and Suishun take the children in to get close to Zhuzhu."

Jiang Duo frowned: "Don't go in and affect Zhuzhu..."

Fang Shuyu interrupted: "It will be good for Zhuzhu if the child is closer to the mother. Besides... Zhuzhu should miss the child too."

Jiang Duo was silent for a while, but did not refute anything in the end.

After sending the three children to the room, Fang Shuyu returned and sat on the couch next to Jiang Duo: "Xiaoduo, take Zhuzhu home."

"No, Zhuzhu won't want to see anyone in this situation."

Fang Shuyu sighed heavily, "It's been so long, everyone knows that Zhuzhu can't wake up, don't be stubborn, you can take a year off and take care of Zhuzhu at home, what about the future? Do you want to live like this for the rest of your life? Zhuzhu won't want to see you like this."

"She is my wife, I should take care of her."

"Mom understands that you should and must take care of Zhuzhu. What I mean is that your future cannot be just like this. You have Zhuzhu and the child. You take Zhuzhu home. During the day, you go to work and I help you take care of Zhuzhu. Your aunt helps us take care of the three children. At night, I take care of the three children and you stay with Zhuzhu. Let's work together, okay?"

Jiang Duo did not respond, but the expression on his face revealed that he did not want anyone to touch Mingzhu.

Fang Shuyu thought about it, took out a stack of passbooks from his pocket, and pushed them to Jiang Duo.

Jiang Duo looked at the passbooks without moving, and he was not curious.

Fang Shuyu said, "This is what Zhuzhu asked me to leave for you."

Hearing Mingzhu's name, Jiang Duo was stunned for a moment, lowered his head, and opened the passbook.

Seeing that his name was written on each of the passbooks, and the amount was not small, he tightened his grip on the passbook.

Fang Shuyu's eyes were red: "I don't know, maybe Zhuzhu thought too much before giving birth, she prepared for a rainy day early, wrote your name on the passbook and handed it to me, saying... in case something happens, let me give the passbook to you, because only you can spend the money she worked hard to earn on her children, she only trusts you."

Jiang Duo closed his eyes: "I don't need these things at all, I want her."

"But she can't wake up!" Fang Shuyu burst into tears: "Child, can't you face the reality? Your children are three months old and don't even have a name. Do you... still want them? Abandoning them like this is abandoning Mingzhu's trust and expectations of you. Are you worthy of her? Those three children were exchanged for her life!"
