Half a year has passed in the blink of an eye, and there is still no news of Bai Zhi. [△Net www.AiQuxs.]
At the European manor.
As soon as Ou Zihan got off work, he didn't even eat dinner before heading to the lily planting area in the manor. He was going to water the lilies. He had once told Xiao Zhi that he wanted to take good care of these lilies because they represented their undying love.
He wanted their love to last forever. He believed that they would meet again someday, no matter how long it would take, even if it took a lifetime, he would wait.
He had just walked up to a patch of lilies when he saw a familiar figure watering them.
"Mom, why did you suddenly decide to water the flowers?" He asked, puzzled. Apart from work, his mother was only interested in beauty, fitness, jewelry, and clothes. She never cared about watering flowers; that was always the job of the housekeeper and maids. Why did she want to do it herself?
Mrs. Ou, holding an antique watering can, turned to look at her son.
"Han'er, doesn't Bai Zhi like lilies? I think she'll be very happy to see the lilies blooming so beautifully when she comes back," Madam Ou said softly, her eyes filled with anticipation.
Ou Zihan was jolted by her mother's words.
I never expected my mother to say that.
My mother actually misses Bai Zhi so much?
Not to mention how much her mother disliked Bai Zhi before, even after the marriage, when Gong Ru persecuted her, her mother still gave her the feeling that Bai Zhi was someone who could be abandoned at any time, a vague sense of indifference.
Now, only half a year has passed, how could his mother miss Bai Zhi so much? His mother's longing for the woman he loved moved him to tears.
"Mom, why have you changed? I've never seen you miss your wife like this before." Ou Zihan asked in a low voice. He took the watering can from his mother's hand, put it down, and took his mother's hand, sitting down on the luxurious European-style sofa in front of the lilies.
"Han'er, Mom is probably getting old. I've come to terms with many things. Wasn't Mom a bit strange before? All I could think about was money. I always believed that money could buy everything, that money could solve everything, and that money was omnipotent."
"Later, as I got to know Bai Zhi, I gradually realized that she had many good qualities. She was not greedy for money, had a strong sense of self-respect, was kind, and was sincere and warm to people, which made people feel a sense of truth, goodness and beauty."
“She was very filial to me during the six years we were married, and I got used to her. After the incident of Gong Ru’s persecution, I felt that losing Bai Zhi as a daughter-in-law was no big deal. There are plenty of good women in the world. Even if Bai Zhi leaves, my son can still find a good wife.”
"But I've missed Bai Zhi more and more these past six months. She would steam my favorite crabs and peel them for me. When I had a stomachache, she would give me acupuncture and make me medicinal food. When I was angry, she would tell me funny stories..."
"Actually, she gave me so much warmth that I can't even remember it all. She really seemed to treat me like her mother. I was often moved without even realizing it. Only after Xiaozhi really disappeared did I remember all the good things she did for me. Han'er, the woman you found is really outstanding. Mom likes her very much. We will definitely find her, right?"
As Mrs. Ou spoke, her eyes reddened, and her eyelashes became slightly moist.
"Yes, Mom, we will definitely find her, we definitely will..." Ou Zihan hugged his mother tightly, tears streaming down his handsome face, wetting his mother's clothes.
...
A remote sanatorium in country M.
Bai Zhi is now a doctor at the sanatorium. In a simple clinic at the sanatorium, she wears a white coat, her hair is tied up high, her fair face has become much thinner, and there is a hint of loneliness in her delicate eyebrows and eyes.
"Dr. Bai, please take a look at Grandma Zhang! She's having another epileptic seizure! She's convulsing and foaming at the mouth, it's terrifying!" A nurse rushed in, calling out to her anxiously.
"Where is Grandma Zhang? Please take me there quickly." She grabbed her medical kit and ran after the nurse, almost tripping in the process.
They finally reached Grandma Zhang, who was surrounded by many elderly people, all pale with fright and in a panic. They wanted to help but didn't know how.
"Dr. Bai is here! That's wonderful! Grandma Zhang is saved!" The old people chattered, making way for Bai Zhi.
Bai Zhi came to Grandma Zhang's side, calmly took out her acupuncture needles, and inserted silver needles into Grandma Zhang's face, forehead, and arms. In just over ten minutes, Grandma Zhang, who had been convulsing, gradually calmed down and returned to normal.
"Xiao Zhi, thank you so much. My illness is tuberculosis, which is incurable. Now that I'm old, the seizures are even worse. The doctors all said that if I have another seizure, I'll die. No doctor can stop me from having seizures. I never expected you to be so amazing and manage to suppress my seizures. Thank you so much, Xiao Zhi, you are a miracle doctor and a living bodhisattva." Grandma Zhang sat on the ground, holding Bai Zhi's hand, tears streaming down her face.
"Grandma Zhang, it's alright. I can treat your illness. Leave it to me. I'll take care of you. The ground is cold, let me help you up." Bai Zhi was full of confidence about this minor illness. She smiled and helped Grandma Zhang up from the ground.
"Thank you, Xiaozhi. Grandma will make you something delicious." Grandma Zhang looked at her with a simple and honest smile, as if she were looking at her granddaughter.
"Xiao Zhi's medical skills are amazing and miraculous. We old folks are so lucky to have Xiao Zhi."
"Xiao Zhi doesn't earn any money here; she's completely selflessly dedicating herself to us. She's like a living Bodhisattva who saved us from our illnesses."
