A few days passed.
Jianshu went to find Wu Xiufang who was resting at home, chatted with her for a while, left some things behind and then left.
Not long after, Wu Xiufang went out to visit friends.
I found a few military wives I was on good terms with and went to the hospital together.
Jianshu waited silently at home. After waiting for a long time, no one came back. He couldn't help but worry and kept his eyes fixed on the door.
Finally, I couldn't sit still anymore, so I got up and walked into the yard, just in time to see Tiedan playing at the door.
Her eyes lit up, and she waved and called out, "Tiedan, come here!"
Hearing the call, Tiedan ran over sweating profusely, "What's wrong?"
"Can you please do my sister a favor?"
"Sure, I'll do you ten favors!" Tiedan waved his little hand generously.
Jian Shu chuckled, "Take your friends to play outside the courtyard. If you see your mother coming back, come back and tell me." She paused and added, "If you hear any news, tell me too."
"Okay, leave it to me!" Tiedan patted his chest, then called on his friends to run towards the gate of the yard.
Jian Shu watched them go away, then turned and went back into the house.
She felt uneasy and sat on the bed, tidying up the clothes in a disjointed manner. She tossed the children's small clothes over and over, folding them, folding them again, and then folding them again.
After going back and forth for an unknown amount of time, Tiedan's voice finally came from outside.
"Beautiful sister, my mother is back!"
Jianshu quickly got up and walked out, and saw Tiedan running towards him and Wu Xiufang far behind him.
"Thank you, Tiedan. Sister will treat you to some candy. Share it with your friends." Jianshu touched his head, gave him a handful of fruit candy, and said with a smile.
Tiedan's eyes lit up, "Thank you, sister!" He held the candy in both hands and smiled with his teeth visible.
"Go and play, I want to talk to your mother for a while." Jian Shu rubbed his head again and sent him away.
Not long after, Wu Xiufang walked in, sat down on the sofa, and drank a large glass of water to quench her thirst.
Then he wiped his mouth and said indignantly, "Sister Shu, you don't know what we encountered when we went to the hospital today!"
"That old woman is making trouble again?" Jian Shu was really disgusted with that person. He didn't even want to put in the effort and was very rude in his address to her.
"That's right!" Wu Xiufang slapped her thigh. "Didn't she just turn around and leave when she saw it was a girl? It was all thanks to Sister Wang's kindness that she stayed in the hospital for two days to take care of her. But no one expected that after Sister Wang just came back yesterday, she would be clamoring to be discharged today."
"The doctor said the baby had been in her womb for too long and she couldn't be discharged so soon and needed to stay a few more days. But she refused to let him go. Not only did she make a scene in the hospital, she even secretly took the baby away!"
Jian Shu's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly grabbed her arm and asked, "Is the child okay now?"
The newborn baby was taken away like this, and the child was already weak, so the possibility of something happening to him was too high.
Seeing her so anxious, Wu Xiufang was startled and quickly comforted her, "Don't worry, don't worry, the child is fine. Don't get excited, take care of the baby in your belly, otherwise I won't be able to explain to Comrade Gu."
Pregnant women should not be too excited, especially Jianshu, who had a miscarriage a few days ago and should not be too excited.
Thinking of this, Wu Xiufang regretted telling her about this. Given her personality, it would be hard not to get angry after hearing this.
But she couldn't keep it to herself. Firstly, Jian Shu would definitely keep thinking about it, and it wouldn't be good to feel depressed. Secondly, even if she didn't say it, she would still know about it once the news spread.
In just a few seconds, many thoughts flashed through her mind. While helping Jian Shu calm down, Wu Xiufang said, "Don't worry, everything has been resolved. Nothing serious has happened. Don't get excited. I'll tell you what happened."
"Sister-in-law, you tell me, I will control myself." Jianshu nodded while holding her belly. As long as the result is good, everything else will be fine.
Wu Xiufang slowly told her what happened in the hospital while staring at her reaction.
"It was also good luck. When we arrived at the hospital, the old woman had just come out with the baby in her arms. The sharp-eyed girl from the Zhang family spotted her sneaking out right away. We were a little suspicious at the time. After all, as you know, the old woman hadn't been to the hospital since the baby was born."
"Not only did she go there today, but she was also acting so suspiciously that we followed her. We found her holding a child in her arms, and we were stunned. Why is the child here? Shouldn't he be in the hospital?"
"Plus, the old woman saw us still sleeping with a guilty look on her face, so we immediately realized something was wrong. We quickly snatched the child back and sent him to the hospital." She gritted her teeth and said, "That damned old woman stole the child, and she even wrapped him in a blanket. Luckily, we got him back early, otherwise she would have been left hanging around with the child like that for hours. Who knows how much suffering she would have endured."
Children are fragile, and newborns are even more fragile. No matter how much care they take, it's never too much. But the grandmother didn't care about the child at all, and tortured her like that. To be frank, isn't this murder?
Jian Shu's hands were clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white. "We can't just let this go."
The old woman said she secretly took the child away because the hospitalization was too expensive, but who knows what she was thinking? Maybe she just wanted to take this opportunity to torment the child.
Don't blame her for making malicious speculations. For someone who can disregard the life of a mother in order to have a grandson, no amount of malice is too great.
