After thanking the old lady again, the group left her house, which was located in a reverse-facing room.
Dong Ping raised her trembling hand and grasped Fang Qiao's hand in both, tears welling in her eyes. She said gratefully, "Little sister, thank you for helping me despite our past grievances. Now that I think back to the day two years ago when you first brought your husband and child back to your parents' home, I treated you so badly. I feel so ashamed."
It's all because of poverty.
If life weren't so tough, who wouldn't want to live a dignified life?
We all started out as innocent and carefree teenagers; we're all reasonable and understanding. Who would want to be a sharp-tongued and mean-spirited person?
But it would be a lie to say that Fang Qiao doesn't mind at all; she's not that magnanimous.
In the future, we should be polite to each other and treat each other like ordinary relatives.
Fang Qiao forced a smile and said, "It's all in the past."
She changed the subject, saying, "Sister-in-law, the acupoint I pressed on you only stops the bleeding temporarily. The bleeding might start again at any time. In your case, you should go to the hospital as soon as possible."
The spiritual energy can temporarily protect the uterus, but it cannot cure the problem. Moreover, Dong Ping is just an ordinary person, and the spiritual energy in her body will dissipate. Once the spiritual energy dissipates, the bleeding will continue.
“Then let’s go to the hospital now and not go home,” Dong Ping said.
Fang Qiao nodded: "Yes, it's best to go directly to the hospital. If possible, stay in the hospital. That way, if anything happens, there will be doctors watching over you in the hospital, which is much better than being helpless outside."
“I definitely need to be hospitalized. I haven’t been able to get pregnant for more than five years since giving birth to Xiaolong. Doctors have said that I’ve damaged my fertility and it will be difficult for me to conceive again. Now that I’ve finally gotten pregnant, I’m going to keep her no matter how much it costs.” Dong Ping subconsciously touched her belly.
She was truly terrified; if she hadn't met Fang Qiao today, the child would definitely be gone.
Her health was already compromised; if she loses this pregnancy, she may never be able to conceive again for the rest of her life.
Dong Ping felt both frightened and relieved. She looked at Fang Qiao and pleaded, "Little sister, your brother and I are going to the hospital and won't be able to take care of the child for a while. Could you please help us take Xiaolong home?"
Fang Qiao naturally nodded in agreement: "Okay."
Dong Ping breathed a sigh of relief and said sincerely, "Thank you, little sister. Please take the things I bought back with you as well."
Fang Hai quickly picked up the things he had just put on the ground and handed them to Fang Qiao.
"No need to thank me. I'm his aunt. It's no trouble for me to take him home. You can go to the hospital without worry. I promise to get the child home safely." Fang Qiao smiled and took the things from Fang Hai.
Fang Hai pointed out, "It's a bit heavy."
Fang Qiao: "It's okay, I'm strong, I can lift it."
Dong Ping waved to Xiao Long outside the door, and Xiao Long immediately ran in, looking bewildered, and asked her, "Mom, what's wrong?"
He was still a little confused about the situation.
Dong Ping shook her head and said, "Mom is fine."
She patted Xiaolong's head and instructed him, "Xiaolong, your mom and dad have something to do and are going to the hospital right away. We won't be home yet. Your aunt will take you home in a little while. Be good with Xiaolong, listen to her, don't be naughty, and don't cry, understand?"
Xiaolong nodded, somewhat confused, and then asked, "Mom, why did you go to the hospital? Are you sick?"
Dong Ping didn't bother to explain to him, mainly because even if she did, he wouldn't understand and it would only be a waste of time.
Dong Ping took Xiaolong's hand and placed it in Fang Qiao's, saying, "Xiaolong, Mom and Dad don't have time now, we have to go to the hospital quickly. We'll talk to you when we get home. Be a good boy/girl with your aunt, okay?"
She handed her hand to Fang Hai: "Let's go."
Fang Hai nodded, took Dong Ping's hand, and let her lean half of her body against him.
"Little sister, we're leaving." He said to Fang Qiao.
There's a tram line outside this street, and the next stop is Beijing Hospital.
At first, Xiaolong didn't quite realize what was happening. But once his parents left the alley and disappeared from sight, he suddenly realized they were gone. Then, he suddenly took off running, crying and calling for his mother, chasing after them in the direction they had gone.
"Mom, Dad, don't go, wait for me."
Fang Qiao quickly grabbed his arm, pulled him back, and comforted him, "Xiao Long, don't cry. Your parents have something to do. Have you forgotten what your mother just told you? She told you to listen to your aunt."
Xiaolong shook his head and refused to listen: "I don't want to, I want my mom, I just want my mom."
"Get away! Get away!" he said, trying to pry Fang Qiao's arms away with both hands. When he couldn't pry them away, he shifted his weight downwards, trying to slide to the ground and throw a tantrum.
When a naughty child throws a tantrum, he always uses this trick. Fang Qiao was on guard, holding his arm tightly to prevent him from sliding down.
She straightened her face and said sternly, "Stand up straight, no crying! No tantrums."
Little Dragon cried even harder: "No, I'll cry! I'll throw a tantrum! Waaaaah, I want my mommy!"
Fang Qiao was exhausted and advised, "Your mother is busy and doesn't have time to take care of you. Be good and don't cry or make a fuss. Your aunt will take you home."
Xiaolong cried again: "I don't want to go home, I want my mom."
Fang Qiao: "..."
Unable to reason with the brat, Fang Qiao simply and forcefully restrained him, gripping his wrists with one hand and raising the other, threatening, "Shut up, don't cry, or you'll get a spanking."
Xiao Long glanced at Fang Qiao's raised hand, then at her serious and cold face, choked back a sob, and wisely stopped crying.
