Chapter 73: Mad Woman
Xu Yifei was worried that she didn't know how to tell Mina about it.
After all, the conflict between having a second child and Mina is the biggest one, and Xu Yifei always hopes that this family will be peaceful.
But there are some things that it is impossible for her to escape.
In view of Mi Jiaxing's good health, after the high fever subsided, he spent another afternoon in the hospital, and there was nothing else, so he was allowed to go home.
Although I was prescribed a lot of medicine before leaving, it was much more comfortable than being hospitalized.
As soon as the husband and wife returned, they went straight to the thatched hut and were told that they had moved.
Xu Yifei is very happy, she finally doesn't have to live in this broken thatched house, to be honest, she has some psychological shadows.
Mi Jiaxing also breathed a sigh of relief, he could be much more relaxed if he changed to a better accommodation environment.
The two of them arrived at the small western-style building where Mr. Yu and they stayed, the rooms had been cleaned up, the first floor was very spacious, and the two families were not crowded.
Teacher Yu and the others knew that Mi Jiaxing was back, and they came to greet them, after all, if you look up and don't look down, you still have to have human contacts.
Mina also showed extra caring, gently asking her father how he was doing, asking him if he needed to drink water, whether he needed help, in short, she showed all the parts that could reflect her good qualities.
Mi Jiaxing has long been accustomed to her duplicity, and she is very cooperative with her performance, anyway, she is not his biological daughter, so there is no need to care too much at all.
When Teacher Yu's family left, Mina put away her smiling face, and she was just about to turn around and go back to rest, when she was stopped by Xu Yifei.
"Well, Nana, Mom wants to talk to you about something."
Mina was a little surprised, she didn't know what her mother was going to say, Mi Jiaxing knew in her heart, and it was their business how the mother and daughter should discuss.
It's an established fact, and even Mina can't change anything.
Xu Yifei followed her daughter into her room, and as soon as the door closed, she was a little uncomfortable, and she didn't know how to speak for a long time.
Now that no one is taking pictures, Mina is taking care of herself and removing her makeup, her entire eye makeup is clean, and she doesn't see her mother speak.
I couldn't help but ask with some curiosity, "Mom, what do you want to say?" Is it so hard to say? ”
Xu Yifei smiled awkwardly, knowing that dragging it was not a problem, so she simply said:
"That's right, didn't I tell your dad about finding a surrogate to have a second child, and now there are results."
Mina's hand stopped moving, and said mockingly, "You're going to hold your son so soon?" What a blessing. ”
The yin and yang weirdness in her tone can be heard by anyone.
Xu Yifei has protected her daughter for so many years, and now that she is older, it is time to think about Mi Jiaxing.
She said heartily: "It's not easy for your dad for so many years, he's at this age, it's not too much to want to have a son of his own."
Mina put the makeup remover in her hand on the table with a snap, and she said viciously:
"You mean I'm going too far? I don't seem to be stopping you from having a baby, since you love him so much, then give birth to him yourself, what kind of surrogacy to find. ”
Xu Yifei tried hard to explain: "I didn't mean that, since you can accept this matter, then why do you have to lose your temper, face it calmly, isn't it good to be calm?" After all, he's also your brother. ”
Mina didn't buy it at all, she stood up and said imposingly:
"Mom, I really don't understand you, do you really believe him that much? Are you sure this kid is yours? ”
Xu Yifei was caught off guard by her daughter's question, she barely suppressed her anger and said calmly:
"Your dad won't lie to me, I say in my conscience, he has been married to me for so many years, and what he has done is really benevolent and righteous, and he has nothing to say to you......"
Mina couldn't hear such a thing the most, and she said angrily, "That's enough...... If he really treats me as his own daughter, why is he still obsessed with having another one after so many years, isn't it enough to have me? ”
Xu Yifei said helplessly: "Your father's hometown is from southern Fujian, they pay attention to having many children and blessings, and it is normal for the family to have several children, but he has delayed it for so many years because he considers your feelings."
Mina has always been wary of Mikaxing, she knows that the wood is done, she can't change anything, but she should be reminded.
"Mom, you'd better be clear-headed, the older a man gets, the worse he gets, do you think he will not change his heart to you for the rest of his life? Let's be sensible. ”
Xu Yifei listened to her daughter's gentle tone, and she relaxed a little, she said gently: "Don't worry, I know everything in my heart, when your brother comes back, my mother hopes that you can get along in harmony."
Mina sneered, "How am I going to get along with a little kid who drinks milk, can I help you take care of the child?" That's impossible, when he enters the house, I'll move out to live, anyway, I still have the money to buy a house, and it won't affect your family of three. ”
Xu Yifei was tired, and let out a long sigh, "It's up to you, just remember to come back during the New Year's holidays." ”
Mina was silent for a long time before she hummed, and then reminded: "You'd better go and see the surrogate mother, as well as the child-related procedures."
Mina doesn't trust Mi Jiaxing, she is afraid that he will do bad things to the child, if it is really her mother's child, she will endure it, if she dares to play tricks, she will definitely not let him go.
Speaking of this, Xu Yifei pretended to be relaxed and said: "I know everything, I will go abroad with him to have a look, don't worry."
Parents and children are already a journey of drifting apart, and Mina, despite her strength, is unable to interfere in her mother's life, and letting go is the best way.
Ji Anzhi's filming show, accompanied by Huo Wanjun, felt unprecedented ease.
In the past, she needed to deal with a lot of things in person, but now Huo Wanjun has done it all, he has lost the arrogance at the beginning, but has learned to think about problems from Ji Anzhi's perspective everywhere.
After dinner, the two took a walk in the village hand in hand, and Ji Mingmei followed behind like a tail.
Although the family of three reunited late, it is not less warm than any family, on the contrary, they cherish this hard-won happiness more.
Ji Mingmei held an unknown wildflower in her hand, and took a photo with great interest to share it with Huo Nanchen.
Walking to the easternmost part of the village, there are almost no people living in it, and now most young people are buying houses in the city, and the village is gradually becoming less and less inhabited.
When I walked to the last house, I looked at the dilapidated courtyard wall, if it weren't for the lights inside, I wouldn't have thought that there were still people living there.
As soon as the family of three got closer, they heard a terrible scream, Ji Mingmei was startled, and even the wildflowers in her hand fell to the ground.
Ji An subconsciously looked over, and saw an old man who looked sixty or seventy years old inside the courtyard wall, beating a woman about forty with a belt.
The woman was beaten and rolled on the ground, her clothes were dirty, and next to them stood a child, staring blankly at what to look at.
Huo Wanjun saw the old man's deadly beating, kicked the door open, rushed to his side and pushed him away.
He shouted, "What are you doing here?" Is it trying to kill someone? Did you know that domestic violence is a crime? ”
The old man's legs and feet were a little inflexible, and he fell to the ground as soon as Huo Wanjun pushed him, he gasped and said arrogantly: "Who are you?" I take care of my wife, what does it have to do with you? ”
Ji Anzhi's face was full of disbelief, the woman who was beaten was more than one round younger than the old man, how could she marry him.
She picked up the woman and wiped her face with a handkerchief that was not dirty, and the woman showed a stupid smile, which was not a normal IQ at first glance.
Ji Anzhi said solemnly: "Do you have a marriage certificate?" How could she marry you like this, does her family know? ”
The old man spat out a mouthful of thick phlegm in disgust, and said indifferently:
"I picked up the rags from the street, and she has been with me for more than ten years, and I am the one who supports her, is it not my wife's or someone else's?"
Ji Anzhi didn't expect this to be the case, "Didn't her family come to look for her?" ”
The old man sneered, "Such a fool is a burden to stay at home, who will come to her?" The son I gave birth to is stupid, what's wrong with me hitting her twice? Mind your business and get out of my house quickly. ”
The old man stretched out his hand and wanted to push Ji Anzhi, but Huo Wanjun kicked it unceremoniously and warned coldly:
"If you dare to touch her, I'll discount your hand."
The old man was the most bullying and afraid of the hard, and he didn't dare to come forward, but only shouted for them to leave.
Ji Mingmei was a little scared, pulled Ji Anzhi and said:
"Mom, let's go first, this old man is not like a good person."
Ji Anzhi patted his daughter's hand comfortingly, led her out, and as soon as they came out, the old man slammed the door of the broken courtyard shut.
Ji Mingmei instinctively looked back, and her eyes happened to be in line with the old man's son.
The boy's eyes were hollow, as if he hadn't seen anything, and he instinctively gnawed on a piece of meat.
The old man was probably afraid that they would come back to meddle in his business, so he didn't beat the crazy woman.
scolded and dragged her into the house, and the woman didn't know how to resist, so he did it.
Ji Mingmei looked sad, and couldn't help but speak:
"Mom, that woman is so pitiful, it's okay to let an old man spoil it, and she will be beaten by him, should we help her?"
Ji Anzhi sighed, and said helplessly: "You also heard what the old man said, and I don't know if it's true or not, if she was really deliberately abandoned by her family, how can we help her?"
Ji Mingmei said innocently: "Aren't there many welfare institutions? For people like her, the state can save them. ”
Huo Wanjun took over the conversation and said: "It can only treat the symptoms but not the root cause, although she is dressed a little sloppily, her facial features are not ugly, and there is no one to protect her outside, she still falls into the mouth of the tiger, maybe she will get pregnant and give birth to a child, and her life may be even more miserable."
Ji Mingmei's heart tightened, and she asked a little unpleasantly: "Is there no other way to help her?"
Ji Anzhi said lightly: "Unless you can help her find her family, the family is willing to take care of her, or help her cure her illness, but this is not something that can be done simply."
