Her pitiful expression made people love her. Song Zhiyao squatted beside the bed and touched her head, then picked up the hot water on the bedside table and handed it to her, "Good sister, drink some hot water first."

She took out a White Rabbit milk candy from her pocket. This was something she always had. Not only could she use it to coax her children, but she could also use it to fill her stomach when she was hungry.

A-mei swallowed her saliva when she saw the candy Song Zhiyao handed over. "Doctor, I can't take your candy. I can't eat such precious candy."

[Mom said that only my brother can eat the candy, I am a money loser and don’t deserve it.]

Song Zhiyao didn't expect A-mei's mother to be so hateful. She thought it was just a piece of candy and she didn't think it was worthy.

She didn't say anything and just stuffed the candy into A-mei's mouth.

After all, she is a child. No matter how sensible she is, she cannot resist the sweet taste enveloping her mouth.

She resisted the urge to swallow it so quickly, wanting the candy to stay in her mouth a little longer.

Song Zhiyao, who was watching all this, felt very sad. It was just a piece of candy. Many children did not eat it every day, but could eat it during festivals.

It was also the first time she saw a child being so cautious about eating a piece of candy.

At this time, Song Zhiyao took out a piece of White Rabbit candy from her pocket and put it in Ah Mei's hand. "The doctor gave you candy. There is nothing you can't eat, and nothing you don't deserve."

Her words were gentle and powerful. Even though Ah Mei didn't understand much, she could feel the difference and her tears kept flowing.

No one had ever been so gentle to her. From childhood to adulthood, what she heard most was, "You money-loser, go take care of your brother. You money-loser only knows how to eat."

Grandpa, grandma, dad, mom and brother all said that she was a money-loser, and A-mei herself thought so too.

Seeing Ah Mei's tears flowing, Song Zhiyao took out a handkerchief and gently wiped her tears. "Ah Mei, don't cry. The doctor has something to ask you."

A'mei trusted Song Zhiyao very much at this time, and cooperated very well when she heard it, looking at her steadily.

"Amei is such a good girl. The doctor wants to know how you came to the hospital and where is your home?" Song Zhiyao knew it was unrealistic to let Amei stay in the hospital all the time.

She should go home after she recovers from her illness. If she doesn't go back to her home, she will be sent to an orphanage, and the conditions in the orphanage are not very good.

A child that young might be bullied if she goes to an orphanage. Her family might favor boys over girls, but it's better for her than being alone outside.

When A-mei heard Song Zhiyao's words, her body began to tremble and fear appeared in her eyes, as if she was afraid to answer this question.

"What's wrong with you, doctor? Don't you see that the child is scared? You still ask all kinds of questions. This child has been abandoned!" An aunt who was taking care of her grandson in the next bed said hurriedly.

Her words were unpleasant to hear, but they were very realistic. Song Zhiyao asked again because she was not giving up.

"You can't be so mean to the doctor." A-mei yelled at her aunt like a little lion.

The aunt didn't get angry because of what A-mei said, but laughed instead.

"You're not an ungrateful person. You know this doctor treats you well." As he said this, he pinched A-mei's face.

With a look of disgust, he said, "You are so skinny, are you three years old?"

"I'm seven years old." Children don't want to be called three-year-olds. A'mei looked at her aunt with displeasure.

Song Zhiyao was stunned. When she found A-mei, she thought she was five years old, but now she knew she was seven years old.

She had treated so many seven-year-old children, but she had never seen one so thin and small.

"My family is not poor. We have a radio, a bicycle, a sewing machine, and my younger brother can eat meat for every meal." Ah Mei's words contain a lot of information.

In this day and age, the family is indeed well-off if they can afford these big items, but how can they raise their children like this with such good conditions? Song Zhiyao knew that it was because A-mei's family favored boys over girls, but the aunt next to her began to imagine a bloody story.

"Did your father marry a stepmother and deliberately abuse you?" When A-mei came in, the aunt saw that her symptoms were the same as her grandson's, but A-mei's family didn't care.

Later, after listening to Song Zhiyao's words and seeing A-mei's expression, I realized that she definitely couldn't find her family.

"She's not a stepmother, she's my biological mother." A-mei was dejected when she heard her aunt's words.

For a moment, the aunt didn't know what to say. She felt very uncomfortable seeing that the boy was almost the same age as her grandson but so much smaller.

"Some people are just not fit to be parents. If they give birth to a child but don't raise it well, they are no different from animals." My aunt is also a sentimental person, so she started scolding directly.

However, Song Zhiyao got a lot of information from A-mei's words. Her family was not poor. She thought she was very poor because of what she was wearing.

It is not good for the child if the family is not poor, so we can only ask the police to talk to A-mei’s family.

This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~

That’s right, Song Zhiyao planned to collect the information and ask Director Liang to ask the police to find A-mei’s family and educate them.

The presence of the police will definitely have a deterrent effect, as no one wants the police to come to their home again.

"Amei, can you tell the doctor where your home is?" After Song Zhiyao said this, she looked into Amei's eyes and found that she was a little flustered.

From this she knew that A-mei must know where her family lived, and there must have been other reasons why she didn't want to tell her before.

[I can’t tell you. If the doctor knew that my home is in the machinery factory, she would definitely send me back. When I get home, my mother would beat me to death. If I don’t tell you, I will stay in the hospital forever.]

Song Zhiyao was also helpless after hearing Ah Mei's thoughts. Is Ah Mei's mother really her biological mother? She made her biological daughter so scared.

"Sister, don't be afraid. The doctor will ask the police to send you home. No one will be able to bully you then." Song Zhiyao patted Sister's hand and comforted her.

A-mei knew that the police were there to catch bad guys, so when she heard what Song Zhiyao said, her expression began to soften. It would be great if the police officer could get her mother to stop beating her.

I remembered that many of my friends had said that the police were very powerful and many bad guys didn’t dare to disobey them.

After thinking for a while, Ah Mei looked at Song Zhiyao and said slowly, "Auntie Doctor, my family lives in the machinery factory, and my father is Wang Dawei, a technician in the machinery factory."

Song Zhiyao breathed a sigh of relief when she saw A-mei tell her her home address.

At this time, I heard the aunt next door say in shock, "What? You are Wang Dawei's daughter?"

From her tone, it seemed that she knew A-mei's father, Wang Dawei. Song Zhiyao also asked seriously, "Aunt, do you know Wang Dawei?"

"Wang Dawei from the machinery factory is my husband's apprentice and he often comes to my house. I know he has a daughter and a son.

Every time he comes to my house, he brags about how obedient and sensible his daughter is, and how clever and well-behaved his son is. I didn’t expect to see his daughter here today.”

The aunt looked at Ah Mei again and said, "Looking at her features, she looks a bit like your father, but she's a little thinner."
