Qiao Dong originally planned to rush back immediately after receiving the wood, but the other party got lost and was late for a long time, and he was delayed for a lot of time.

After inspecting the wood, it was already past nine o'clock in the evening.

The young man who was just about to go home and picked up the goods with Qiao Dong suddenly began to vomit and diarrhea again.

Qiao Dong had no choice but to take him to the nearest health center to see a doctor, and this toss passed for a few hours. When I returned to Qixing Village, it was already two or three o'clock in the morning.

He walked into the bedroom lightly and found that Mu Jiaojiao was not there.

Did you go to my sister's house?

Qiao Dong hurriedly ran to the front yard, looked around the house, and found no one......

A string exploded like a firework in his head, and his intuition told him that Mu Jiaojiao was born!

Once the idea came to mind, it took over his brain uncontrollably.

Am I going to be a dad?

Qiao Dong looked up at the crescent moon hanging in the sky, and smiled stupidly for a long time.

He guessed that everyone must be in the county hospital now, so he went back to the furniture factory to find an employee's bicycle and rushed to the city.

But Qiao Dong never imagined that what was waiting for him would be the ruthless humiliation of Mu Jiaojiao's cousin.

"The arborist is busier than an architect like me!"

In order to receive the goods, Qiao Dong deliberately wore a cloth shirt that was convenient for work, and he didn't have time to change it down.

He had been running around all day, and at this time he was covered in ashes and looked very embarrassed.

"Where's Jiaojiao?" Qiao Dong raised his legs and walked to the ward.

The cousin leaned sideways in front of him, and his tone was not very friendly, "Why don't you ask the child?" Didn't you come to see the kids? ”

Qiao Dong gritted his teeth and squeezed out a voice between his teeth, "What about the child?" ”

Cousin: "Dead." ”

Qiao Dong clenched his fists, and his eyes instantly turned red.

"If you had persuaded Jiaojiao to return to the provincial capital earlier, and had a good examination in advance in a hospital with better medical conditions, the child could have been saved!" The cousin pointed his finger at Qiao Dong's chest, and pricked it to the most painful place in his heart, "If it weren't for your selfishness and self-righteousness, Jiaojiao wouldn't have hemorrhaged and almost died!" ”

Qiao Dong's mind was buzzing, and his lips trembled.

He heard Jiang Zhilian's voice coming from the ward, so he raised his hand and wanted to push the door of the ward.

The cousin grabbed Qiao Dong's arm and dragged him aside, "You're not welcome here!" ”

Qiao Dong begged, "You let me go in and see Jiaojiao." ”

Cousin: "What other face do you have to see Jiaojiao?" She lost her child in order to be with you. ”

Qiao Dong gritted his back molars and said, "That's my child too!" He's the child of me and Jiaojiao! ”

"Now that I know it's your child, why did you go earlier!" The cousin looked Qiao Dong up and down, no matter how he looked at it, he felt unpleasant.

Jiaojiao's vision is not half a star, and the man she is looking for is too out of the flow.

The whole body is vulgar and rustic, not good-looking, low taste, and has not yet learned.

I really can't find a good point.

Can you make a broken piece of furniture? It's something that a man would fiddle with.

Only his silly cousin would be seduced by this kind of garbage.

Cousin: "You go to the hospital and wait!" When it was dawn, we transferred Jiaojiao to the hospital in the provincial capital. When we get in the car, you might catch a glimpse of Jiaojiao. I warn you, you'd better stay out of the way and don't let Jiaojiao see you. She is in a bad mood right now, and it is easy to think of bad things when she sees you. If you really care about her, think more about her. ”

Qiao Dong froze in place, and after a while, he asked in a muffled voice, "You said she was bleeding heavily, is it okay now?" ”

"It's hard to say." The cousin sighed and said, "I'm really afraid that Jiaojiao will make a mistake." If there is another hemorrhage, I doubt that the blood bank here will be able to supply enough blood. Ay...... I don't know if the blood that has been transfused is clean. This place is really not inhabited by people. How could she marry into such a ghost place......"

Qiao Dong turned to leave, his steps were heavy, and his back was lonely.

Jiang Zhilian heard movement outside the door, opened the door and asked Mu Jiaojiao's cousin, "Who are you talking to?" ”

"No one." My cousin said and stepped into the hospital room.

Jiang Zhilian glanced towards the end of the corridor, as if she vaguely caught a glimpse of her uncle's fleeting figure.

She thought for a moment and followed.

"Uncle!" Jiang Zhilian found Qiao Dong in the hall on the first floor.

Qiao Dong looked lost and depressed, he didn't pay attention to Jiang Zhilian, but walked straight towards the outside of the inpatient department.

Jiang Zhilian didn't say anything more, silently followed him to an abandoned pavilion behind the hospital.

The surroundings were desolate, the cicadas chirped, and the bright galaxy gradually dimmed, obscured by the dawn.

Jiang Zhilian saw Qiao Dong wearing green Jiefang brand rubber shoes, which were covered with dust and mud on the soles.

The uncle, who did not wear gold and silver, and lost the style of a local tyrant, looks like an authentic peasant.

"Uncle......" Jiang Zhilian called softly.

Qiao Dong, who had been sitting quietly for a long time, finally reacted, "Huh? ”

"Don't blame yourself! My aunt asked me to tell you that it's not your fault. You're not at fault, really! Jiang Zhilian gently put her hand on Qiao Dong's shoulder, "When my little aunt came to the vegetarian restaurant to look for me at night, her face was injured. ”

Qiao Dong's gaze finally had a focus, he looked straight at Jiang Zhilian, his voice rushing and shaking, "What injury?" Why does she have a wound on her face? Who did what to her? ”

Jiang Zhilian paused and sighed lightly: "Her father slapped her. ”

"Her dad?" Qiao Dong couldn't believe it, "How could her dad do it at such a time?!" ”

"My aunt was afraid that they would forcibly kidnap me, so after being beaten, she ran from the hotel to the vegetarian restaurant to find me. Later, it was ......" Jiang Zhilian couldn't go on, she paused, walked to Qiao Dong's side and sat down.

"My aunt went to the hotel to look for them, probably to tell them that they didn't want to go back to the provincial capital, and persuaded them to go back quickly. I guess it didn't make sense, and there was a quarrel. Her father was angry, so he took action. ”

Jiang Zhilian looked directly at a small mound of dirt in front of her, and in her afterglow, she saw Qiao Dong covering her eyes with her hands.

She couldn't bear it and wanted to comfort her two more words, but her brain was so weak that she couldn't think of anything.

Time passed silently, and Jiang Zhilian turned her head to look at Qiao Dong.

Tears slid down his fingers, soaking his dirty pants.

Jiang Zhilian took out a handkerchief from her pocket and gently put it on Qiao Dong's lap.

Qiao Dong wiped his face twice with a handkerchief, calmed down and said, "What did the doctor say?" Jiaojiao is in this situation now, can she be transferred to the hospital immediately? If you go to the provincial capital, you will be on the road for many hours, and there will be no dangerous situation, right? ”

Jiang Zhilian: "My aunt said that she would not go to the provincial capital or transfer to the hospital, so she would be treated here." ”

Qiao Dong smiled bitterly, "Now like this, I can't help her." ”

"Actually, even if you want to transfer to another hospital, it's better to have a more stable situation. But I heard her cousin's meaning that she was going to be transferred to the hospital immediately. My aunt's cousin called the hospital in the provincial capital, and the car had already driven here, and it was estimated that it would arrive at dawn. ”

Qiao Dong nodded, "It's okay to go to the hospital in the province." ”

Who knows what's best?

The Mu family is so strong and has a position, and the decision is completely in their hands.

I don't want to admit it, but the reality is that now they can do whatever they want.

It's so frustrating!

Meng Qing took her parents to Jiang Zhilian's rental house to rest.

There were Mu Jiaojiao's cousins and sisters-in-law in the ward to take care of, and in order to avoid unnecessary conflicts, Jiang Zhilian did not rush up.

She sat with Qiao Dong in the gazebo for a long time, and did not stand up until dawn.

"Uncle, do you want to go up with me?"

Qiao Dong hesitated for a moment, and finally shook his head, "No......"

Jiang Zhilian took two steps forward, stopped, and turned her head to look at Qiao Dong, "Uncle, do you have anything you need me to convey to my aunt?" ”

Qiao Dong thought for a moment and shook his head again.

It may be that there is too much to say, and there is no way to talk about it for a while; It may also be that the two have too much tacit understanding, everything is in silence, and there is no difference between saying and not saying; It's also possible that if you are afraid that you will not be able to fulfill any words left, it will become a farewell......

Jiang Zhilian was full of sorrow, and felt that every step was extremely difficult.

Before she could reach the door of the ward, she saw a large group of people standing in the hallway. Each is dressed up brightly, from head to toe.

What a "decent" person!
