Liu Yafang had just finished pouring the water for washing her face and was still holding the thermos in her hand when she vaguely heard the sound of a car pulling up at the door of her house.
To be honest, whenever she heard a car horn, her heart would flutter, fearing that someone from the Chu family was coming again.
She finally understood that the Chu family had some mental problems. Whoever came would cry and make a fuss, pulling this and that.
The result was just as she guessed. It was almost time to go to bed. After listening for a minute or two, she heard someone knocking on her door.
Liu Yafang crossed her legs and glanced at Bi Yue's room.
Not long after her daughter finished vomiting, she spilled all the food she had at night onto the ground. She vomited after drinking milk powder and eating eggs. She lay down with a pale face, holding a book in her hand, and said stubbornly that she had to review for the exam soon.
She doesn't care how her daughter does in the exam, as long as she passes.
The girl is already pregnant, what's the point of studying? Isn't getting married more important than studying? She can even tolerate her daughter getting married in her current situation, so this is not a big deal.
Liu Yafang seemed angry with someone. She heard the regular knocks on the door, but she was sullen and unwilling to go out to answer it. "I'm almost going to be driven crazy by my daughter. Can you please let the Bi family go for a few days? Just a break."
Bi Tiegang came trotting over from the backyard with a towel draped over his shoulders. His hair was covered in water droplets. He asked as he ran:
"Why don't you open the door? What are you staring at?"
Liu Yafang then lifted the door curtain and scolded with a breath: "Keep your voice down. Anyone who comes will say that our daughter is asleep. Let's talk tomorrow."
The bolt was removed and the door opened. The visitor did not enter the yard, and Bi Yue paused in flipping through the book.
"dad."
Bi Tiegang glanced at the Xiali car at the door, then glanced at Chu Yifeng, put his hands behind his back, and neither agreed nor turned around to leave.
Chu Yifeng lowered his voice as much as possible, as if he was afraid that Bi Yue would be annoyed by his voice, and handed Bi Tiegang a file bag:
"This is Yueyue's sick leave note. It's fake. It's for gastritis. If she wants to go to school and vomits, she can tell her classmates that she has a stomach problem. If she doesn't want to go, please hand this in tomorrow."
Bi Tiegang took the file bag in a daze: "Who did you ask for it? Didn't you go to the hospital?" Bi Tiegang didn't want to ask, but when he looked at Chu Yifeng's arm and his face, he remembered that this kid's mother fainted from his house, so he had to ask:
"What's wrong with your mother? Is it serious?"
"Dad, this case will last until she takes the exam. When the next semester starts, she will go directly to the internship school. No one will know her. It won't be embarrassing. I'm contacting her over there, so you don't have to worry about it. I'll come over when it's done."
After saying that, Chu Yifeng handed the car keys to Bi Tiegang: "Then I'll leave first."
"Eh? You?"
Until Chu Yifeng sat in the car, Bi Tie knocked on the car window and sighed, "Your mouth is pale, don't tell me you have a fever. Go home and take some anti-inflammatory medicine."
Chu Yifeng smiled and said calmly, "Okay." Then he reversed the car and left.
Liu Yafang had one foot in the door and the other out. She listened and watched the scene worriedly, then turned around to look at Bi Yue's room. The lights in that room were off.
After dinner, the couple asked Bi Yue about it, especially Liu Yafang. She thought men were generally thick-skinned, and she was ambivalent about whether to break up or not. How could it be that simple? There was a child to raise.
As a result, my daughter said that Chu Yifeng would take it seriously.
Now, looking at it again, it was really like that. This kid didn't cry or beg, he just called mom and dad, and he wouldn't even cross the threshold.
Bi Tiegang scolded Gou'er, who was pushing and shoving his way out to settle accounts with Chu Yifeng, and cursed, "What the hell do you know? Go to sleep!"
Liu Yafang was in no mood to care for her two sons and went back to her room first. When she tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep, she asked Bi Tiegang:
"If this is really the case, my daughter is giving birth to a child..."
"Don't talk nonsense. If we're destined to be together, we'll talk about it later. If not, forget it."
"How can we just let it go? They've been quarreling for two or three months, that's what I thought. But look at him, like he's so right. He didn't ask or do anything, and our daughter even asked him to take care of his mother and sister, so why doesn't he take it seriously? Now I tell him to let it go, and he listens. I'm now wondering if he treats his daughter like that..."
Bi Tiegang turned over in anger: "Why are you so nosy? If he was crying just now, you would be annoyed. He didn't kneel down for you? He stopped crying, so why is there so much trouble?"
…
Old Mrs. Chu pounded her lower back and looked up at Chu Hongtian.
Chu Hongtian looked embarrassed, hesitant to speak. He had to glance at the corridor from time to time, afraid of running into anyone he knew. Today, Dean Lao Yu and the others came to greet him, and he blushed with embarrassment.
The old lady waved her hand:
"You don't have to say anything. Xiao Liu is at home, and there's also your daughter. What's the matter? You still want me to take care of her during the postpartum period?
I'm eighty years old and can't even take care of my eldest grandson. Xiaofeng didn't show up, didn't you notice?
You two, this time it's done, you've overshadowed your son. Just wait and see, within three days, the whole compound will know about this. Don't you both mind your embarrassment and continue to act rashly! "
…
The old lady used her crutch to support herself on the steps. Every time she took a step, her legs felt so heavy that she seemed unable to lift them.
She felt like she was holding on to her last breath, otherwise, she would have to meet the King of Hell today.
Taking the key he found in Liang Yinqiu's bag, he opened Chu Yifeng's door and was glad that he came prepared.
Chu Yifeng was lying on the dark blue bed with his bare chest, and Old Mrs. Chu quietly opened the door.
Just one glance and the grandmother burst into tears, but she didn't dare to cry out loud.
Chu Yifeng's back was covered in beating marks. His injured arm also looked like it had just been treated with medicine, and the stitches were crooked and looked very scary. There was also a piece of gauze thrown next to it, with many bloodstains on it.
Mrs. Chu threw down her small bag, leaned forward and touched Chu Yifeng's forehead, she was frightened:
"Xiao Feng? Get up quickly, we have to go to the hospital."
Chu Yifeng mumbled in his sleep, "Yueyue, stop making trouble." His dreams were filled with the days he spent with Bi Yue in Qinhuangdao.
That night, in a daze, Chu Yifeng felt as if he had been fed porridge and taken a few pills.
When he opened his eyes covered in sweat, it was already the next day.
Chu Yifeng's forehead was covered in sweat, and his whole body seemed to be exhausted. He tried to support himself with his elbows, but ended up hurting his arm. He frowned in pain and then he realized that he was covered with two quilts and his grandmother had fallen asleep on one side, snoring.
My heart ached, it wasn't Bi Yue, it was Grandma.
He told himself, it was another day, and he had to get used to every day thereafter.
That morning, while Chu Yifeng was eating the breakfast she made, Old Mrs. Chu started crying like a child: "You only have one arm, and you're cooking for me."
Chu Yifeng seemed to be telling someone else's story:
"Grandma, let me tell you something that a good grandson shouldn't do. Bi Yue and I are separated. She gave birth to a child, but she didn't want to get married. Let's not make a fuss anymore, Grandma. I don't want to disappoint you again."
