Li Xiaomei woke up again and stopped talking.
He just lay there blankly, with empty eyes.
The whole person's energy and spirit have been drained away, which makes people feel uncomfortable.
Brother Xu had to take care of his wife and bear the pain of losing his son. In just a few days, he aged a lot.
The two people seem like two different people from a while ago.
Before, because they were pregnant, their hearts were full of hope and they were motivated to work.
The family was divided again. Counting the baby in the belly, the family of five lived a happy life behind closed doors.
But who knew that everything would change overnight.
"Take good care of yourself, and then we'll take our son home and find him a good place, okay?"
Brother Xu also couldn't bear to part with his son.
He knew that his wife could hear what he said. He thought about it for a long time and told the doctor at the hospital that he would take the child with him when he was discharged and bury him.
Although Li Xiaomei didn't say anything, her tightly pursed lips and tears in the corners of her eyes were responding to Brother Xu's words.
Old Master Xu, Mrs. Xu and the fourth brother stayed for one night and then went back, leaving only the second brother Xu to take care of his wife.
Li Xiaomei stayed in the hospital obediently for a week, and Brother Xu was ready to take her home to take good care of her, which would be more comfortable than staying in the hospital.
The child was wrapped in a quilt and Li Xiaomei held him tightly. Both the couple were heartbroken.
"You two are finally back, Xiaomei, don't be sad, there will be more of you in the future."
"Yes, your old man got really angry with the old lady when he came back. It was the first time I saw an old couple quarrel so fiercely."
"This is that child, tut tut tut, he is unlucky."
As soon as the two came back, they were surrounded again.
Li Xiaomei's face changed, and Brother Xu also clenched his fists tightly.
"Xiaomei can't stand the wind, I'll take her home first." Brother Xu hurried home with his wife.
The Xu family had a hard time during the few days they were in the hospital.
The old man came back the next day and saw the old woman. He went up and slapped her.
The couple have been together for so many years, and this is the first time the old man has beaten his wife.
"You're crazy!"
Although Mrs. Xu had just returned from her daughter's place, she felt a little guilty when she heard from her eldest son that her second daughter-in-law had fallen down at home alone and everyone had sent her to the hospital.
But the old man came up and slapped her, and the old lady was not happy with it.
He went up and started beating the old man.
When the fourth child saw his parents fighting, he quickly stepped forward to stop them.
"Am I crazy, or are you stupid?"
"How could you leave the second son's wife at home alone and run off to the county? You should tell your family so that the second son can come back and take care of his wife."
"Meili is being well-served at her husband's house. Why are you being so attentive and making such a hassle-free trip?"
"Look what you did!"
When the old man saw the old woman, he immediately exploded.
This kind of thing could have been avoided. If the old woman hadn't left without saying goodbye, such a big thing would have happened to the second son's wife.
"What happened when I went to see my daughter?"
"What law have I violated that you scold me and hit me?"
Old Mrs. Xu covered her swollen face and looked at the old man angrily.
"You...do you know that because of you, the second brother's child is gone!"
"An eight-month-old male fetus!"
"You don't feel guilty at all. He's your grandson. Do you know what's become of the second brother and his wife now?"
"Even if I hit you, I still won't feel better!"
If this old woman keeps running this family like this, it will be ruined sooner or later.
After all, they rely on their son for their livelihood. Now that they have offended their son, what will they do when the day comes when they can't move?
Old Mrs. Xu stretched her neck and asked, "What else do you want to do to me?"
"That's because her second son's wife is unlucky and has no son. She's really doomed and useless!"
"It's been eight months, and I still can't keep the baby."
"How come I'm fine? I've been pregnant with five children, and every time I was still working in the morning, I gave birth in the afternoon. I didn't interfere with work or childbirth at any time."
"I'm pregnant, but I'm still working like you men. What's the matter?"
"My second son's wife has been resting at home since she became pregnant. She has taken good care of the child for so long. The child is not made of paper. It's gone just like that. Ultimately, it's all her own fault!"
Old Mrs. Xu has always looked down on her second daughter-in-law. She is so weak and delicate, and her small body is obviously not good enough.
She doesn't look as fertile as Jiang Yuzhu.
At least her breasts are breasts and her butt is her butt, and she has all the necessary flesh.
Unlike the second son’s wife, who is as thin as firewood.
She only gave birth to two daughters and then there was no news. She finally conceived a son, but couldn't keep the baby.
"You...you're still quibbling. The doctor said it was too late to send the baby to bed, and the baby died in your stomach. If you were at home, there wouldn't be so many problems."
The old man knew that his second son's wife had a difficult pregnancy, so he should pay more attention to her.
How could you leave her alone at home without knowing what happened?
If the child had been sent to the hospital earlier, he might have survived.
"I...how could I have known she would fall?"
Old Mrs. Xu felt guilty and a little regretful. How could she be so unlucky?
The second son’s wife is too fragile and breaks if touched.
Now, all the blame is on her.
"You are not allowed to go anywhere during this period. Just stay at home and take good care of the second son's wife during the confinement period." I heard that the second son's wife had undergone surgery, which was more harmful to her health, so she had to stay at home for the full confinement period.
"ah?"
"How can that be? Meili is about to give birth." She went to see her daughter. Her daughter's belly was so big and it looked like she would give birth soon. She still had to take care of her daughter.
She has already made an agreement with Meili.
"You're still going, just stay at home."
"Meili, doesn't she have her mother-in-law over there?"
The old man suddenly felt so tired.
How come everything happened at the same time?
It’s not that he doesn’t love his daughter, but he can’t ignore his son at home just because of his daughter.
As for Meili, with her mother-in-law around, things won’t be any different.
The Gu family's conditions are much better than theirs.
Besides, the child in their daughter's belly is the grandson of the Gu family. Even for the sake of the child, they will not let Meili down.
Why should they bother themselves?
