When the Xu family heard Xu Laoer's screams, they knew something was wrong and ran to Laoer's room.
Li Xiaomei hanged herself.
"Hurry up and save him!" The old man staggered two steps and bumped into the door.
Several men in the Xu family rushed to help and rescued the man.
Xu Laoer picked up Li Xiaomei and ran to the barefoot doctor.
"Fourth son, hurry up and find a car. If the barefoot doctor can't help, take him to the hospital immediately." Old Master Xu called out to his youngest son.
"Okay..." The fourth brother was so anxious that his forehead was covered with sweat.
Mr. Xu glanced at the old woman and sighed, "Hurry up and get the money!"
"I... I'll get it right away!" Old Mrs. Xu didn't expect her daughter-in-law to hang herself, and her legs went weak.
Xu Meili hid in the house holding her child and didn't dare to come out. She naturally heard the noise outside, but she didn't dare to go out.
Old Mrs. Xu took out twenty yuan and gave it to the old man.
"Give me more!" The old man was afraid that there wasn't enough money, so he went back and forth.
She glanced at her daughter holding the child and said, "Meili, you have also seen the situation at home. Your second sister-in-law lost her child and was traumatized. You should take the child back home to recuperate after childbirth."
After saying that, the old man left. He had to go and see what was going on.
Over there, Xu Laoer carried Li Xiaomei to see the barefoot doctor.
The barefoot doctor was also startled and rushed to provide first aid and perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
"Come here too and do as I say. Just blow into your mouth when I tell you to." The barefoot doctor pressed Li Xiaomei's chest and asked Xu Laoer to get ready as well. The two took turns.
The barefoot doctor was sweating all over his forehead, but he didn't dare to stop.
A human life.
"Xiaomei, I don't want my son anymore. Wake up. It's fine for us to continue living like this. It's all because of my greed. You can't abandon me and the child. Wake up!"
Xu Laoer slapped himself hard twice. It was all his fault.
Why didn't he notice his wife's abnormality earlier?
He can still numb himself by working, but what about his wife? She must be feeling so uncomfortable at home.
He was too careless.
Now that I think about it, every time my younger sister’s child cries, it’s a stimulation to my wife.
I just lost my child, and how could I bear to hear the crying of a child?
He couldn't stay in this house anymore, so he wanted to move out with his wife.
Mrs. Xu clasped her fingers together and begged God to have mercy on the second brother's family.
What will happen to this family if my brother and sister-in-law pass away?
Although she is not a good person, she knows that her sister-in-law is very pitiful.
My younger brother and his wife have been feeling inferior over the years and have been hoping to have a son. The couple finally had a son, but he is still dead.
If anything happens to my brother and sister again...
I dare not think about it.
“Ahem…”
“Alive! Alive!”
The barefoot doctor collapsed on the ground, exhausted.
"Xiaomei!" Brother Xu hugged Li Xiaomei.
"I don't allow you to do stupid things anymore. What should I do if anything happens to you..." Brother Xu cried so hard that his tears and snot were streaming down.
"Xu Qiang... I'm sorry..." Li Xiaomei always felt guilty that she could not give Xu Qiang a son.
Which man doesn't want a son?
She also wants a son.
With a son by my side, I will have someone to rely on when I get old.
The couple has only two daughters, so their offspring is too few.
As a daughter, she knew too well the difficulties women faced after marriage. Once married, they had no control over their own lives.
Just like her, she doesn't have a high status in her husband's family, so how can she have the nerve to give things to her parents' family?
She had no time to care for her parents, so she always longed to have a son.
Sons are additions to the family, and daughters are married off and move out.
"It doesn't matter. We don't want a son, and the same goes for a daughter. We both work hard to earn money, and then we can leave a daughter to marry a son-in-law. She can also provide for our old age."
"If it really doesn't work... We depend on each other, it's no big deal. If you leave, I don't want to live anymore..."
Xu Qiang hugged his wife and cried bitterly.
They have similar personalities. Both are the type of people who are not talkative and work silently.
The two have been together for eight years and have long regarded each other as an indispensable part of their lives.
Li Xiaomei also cried.
"Okay, I won't do anything stupid again." She has already died once, so what else is she afraid of?
"Let's move out as a family. Just the four of us, no one else." For the first time, Xu Qiang thought of leaving this home.
If he doesn't leave, his home will be gone.
Li Xiaomei nodded while crying.
Mr. Xu and his eldest brother and his wife didn't say anything.
"Second brother, if you need me to do something, tell me. I will definitely help you if I can."
"Thank you, brother."
In this way, Xu Laoer and his family moved out of the Xu family's yard and spent thirty yuan to buy a dilapidated yard in the village.
Fortunately, it has its own door and yard, so it is easy to clean up.
Brother Xu and the fourth brother helped the second brother repair the house every day, and moved out after the repairs were completed.
How could the second child not have complaints against his mother?
If Mrs. Xu had paid a little more attention to them, the result would not have been like this.
Old Mrs. Xu stared at the empty yard in a daze.
The third son lives in a staff housing complex and can't come back. His daughter is married and isn't at home either. Now the second son and his family have also moved away.
This home is becoming increasingly incapable of accommodating them.
Thinking of the scene when five children were playing in the yard when they were young, Mrs. Xu fell silent...
Xu Meili took the child back to Gu's house.
"Meili, why did you suddenly come back with your son?"
"Are my sisters-in-law unhappy?"
When Gu Kai saw Xu Meili suddenly come back with her son, he wondered if the Yue family was unhappy.
The daughter-in-law and son had a quarrel because they ate a lot of good food at their parents-in-law's house.
His mother also said that he would definitely be back soon.
He really came back.
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
"I brought my son back because... my second sister-in-law lost her child. I was afraid it would be unlucky, so I hurried back with my son."
Xu Meili is still in shock.
She didn't dare stay any longer, as her second sister-in-law would take her son away again.
The child was frightened and cried all night, which made Xu Meili upset.
"What?"
"When did this happen? Why didn't you tell me? If I had known, I wouldn't have sent you and your daughter back. Is my son okay?" Gu Kai quickly took his son in.
"Who sent you back?"
"Fourth brother, he left as soon as he saw my mother and I enter the yard."
"Oh, then you go back to the house and rest. Mom and I will take care of the children."
"Mom...Mom, look, your grandson is home."
Xu Meili felt annoyed when she saw Gu Kai, who was only concerned about his children.
