Xiaoting is very caring towards her mother. If Ye Man had a bump on her head, she would definitely be looking at her mother with heartache and gently blowing on her face. She's not very close to her father, but remembering the promise she made to her mother—
"Dad, what happened? Does it hurt? I'll put some medicine on it when we get home, okay?"
Xiaoting was in such a rush when she left home this morning that she hadn't shaved and had some stubble. Her face was actually a little uncomfortable, but she endured it and let her father press his face against hers. He Zhangcheng's heart softened so much that he was practically bubbling with tenderness.
She even reached out and touched his face, "...Dad?"
"Dad's alright, thank you Xiaoting."
As soon as Xiaoting got home, she jumped down and rushed into the house, shouting "Mom!" Ye Man came out of the house and asked, "You're back? What do you want for lunch?"
Xiaoting was hugging her mother's leg and talking to her, unaware of the atmosphere between her parents.
Her father stood blankly in the room like a young boy, unsure of what to do with his hands, and didn't say a word. Her mother kept her head down and didn't even glance in that direction. The only sound in the room was her chattering.
"The little goslings even fought with the kittens. They were so fierce, we were all too scared to go... Hey Mom, why aren't you saying anything?"
Ye Man reached out and pinched her daughter's tender cheek. "Mommy is listening to you."
"All right"
He Zhangcheng touched his nose. He had made her angry before he left home this morning. He wondered if she had calmed down yet. But seeing that she didn't seem to be in any discomfort, he could only go to the kitchen to cook.
At the dinner table, Xiaoting was still telling her mother about her stay at An'an's house these past few days, holding her spoon. She really liked staying there. An'an's house had a big yard and a backyard. Uncle Lu had even gotten a water tank and planned to go up the mountain to catch some fish to raise.
"Oh, right, Mom, about Dad's injury... could you apply the medicine to Dad later?"
Xiaoting, holding a spoon, started making arrangements so that her mother could help her father apply the medicine.
Ye Man: "..."
I was stunned for a moment, then quickly lowered my head to eat. I had kindly helped him apply the medicine yesterday, and what happened? Luckily, the medicine bottle didn't break when it hit the ground.
He Zhangcheng opened his mouth slightly, suppressing a laugh, and picked up a piece of meat for Xiaoting. "Thank you, Xiaoting. My mother already wiped it for me yesterday."
After lunch, Xiaoting took a nap at home. She was going to An'an's house in the afternoon, and her father was about to go to work. She opened her arms to signal He Zhangcheng to hug her.
He Zhangcheng picked her up. Ye Man was still lying on the bed. After giving Xiaoting a few instructions, she turned over again, clearly not wanting to talk to him.
He Zhangcheng squeezed his daughter's little hand and sighed inwardly. As soon as Xiaoting came back, she would take over the bed. In his daughter's heart, he, as her father, could only sleep on the floor. Let alone go to bed, he would sit on a chair all afternoon.
He's already feeling the inconvenience. If the three of them have to sleep in the same room in the future, he doesn't know when he'll be able to openly go to bed and hug his wife.
He Zhangcheng knew his daughter definitely didn't want to go to the hospital, so after taking her to the Lu family's house, he went to the hospital. As soon as he opened the door to the ward, Liu He's face darkened when she saw him, and she turned her head away, refusing to look at him.
Ma Mingyue was physically and mentally exhausted. She couldn't even sleep well here. At night, someone in the ward snored so loudly that it almost blew the roof off. After staying up for several days, her dark circles were almost down to her chin. Not to mention, she couldn't even take a proper shower.
After finally getting the food, Ma Mingyue realized her aunt still wouldn't eat. She didn't dare eat first unless her aunt started eating; her hands were trembling with hunger.
This is torture! Why do I have to suffer like this? I just want to get out of here as soon as possible.
"Auntie, please eat something. How can you take care of your health if you don't eat?"
"I'm not sick, it's all because of them that I'm upset."
Ma Mingyue wanted to persuade her again, but noticed that her aunt turned her face away to look elsewhere. She subconsciously turned around and saw her cousin standing at the door.
"cousin……"
She knew what her aunt's heart was troubled by. What she couldn't accept most was that her son had treated her like this because of a woman. If her cousin could apologize and admit his mistake, she probably wouldn't be so stubborn anymore.
"Why did you come back? You threw me out here and told me to fend for myself. All you care about is that woman. You don't even care about your own mother. She made me so angry that I had to go to the hospital, and you still threw my things out..."
As Liu He spoke, she began to wipe away tears. After a while, she realized that her son had been standing at the door the whole time, and he didn't react at all to seeing his mother crying like that!
"I'm asking you, what do you mean? You want to come and see if I'm dead, don't you?"
