Chapter 72


In the ward of the town hospital.

Xiao Qiao blinked her big eyes and uttered with a bewildered look, "You... who are you? Where is this place?"

For a moment, Fang Xiao Juan was stunned. Soon, she screamed: "My precious Jiao Jiao, what are you talking about? Don't you recognize Mom?"

Xiao Qiao's arm was in pain from her grasp. There was a look of fear on her face: "I, I don't know you, who are you? And... Can you let go? You're hurting me!"

Qiao Zhen Jun frowned and asked the doctor, "Doctor, what's the situation with the child? Why doesn't she recognize anyone?"

The male doctor examined Xiao Qiao and told, "She hit the back of her head. Maybe there is blood congestion in her brain, which could lead to fragmented memory."

In these days, when the head was injured and there was no scan or CT scans. The medical equipment was very rudimentary. And the level of medical staff was very limited.

"Then when will she remember?" Qiao Zhen Jun's frown deepened.

The male doctor shook his head: "It's hard to say. But your family should pay more attention to her. She may be able to remember it slowly."

After the doctor left, Fang Xiao Juan hugged Xiao Qiao and cried. She thought she was beautiful when she cried.

When in reality, her complexion was sallow and haggard. Her two teeth were broken by Lin Family before, so she was no longer as beautiful as she used to be. She had no self-knowledge and thought she was still a flower of Dongfeng Community.

Qiao Zhen Jun didn't look at her. He asked Xiao Qiao softly, "Xiao Qiao, I'm Dad. Do you remember?"

Xiao Qiao tilted her head and blinked her big and confused eyes. It took a long time before she shook her head and answered, "I don't remember...but I think I...seem to have seen you somewhere!"

Qiao Zhen Jun said excitedly: "Good child, think about it again!"

Xiao Qiao stared at him for a long time. Then she suddenly covered her head and murmured: "I can't remember. My head hurts so much..."

"Okay, okay, don't think about it if you can't remember." Fang Xiao Juan hugged Xiao Qiao worriedly and turned to Qiao Zhen Jun, "Child's dad, you heard what the doctor said just now. Xiao Qiao's situation requires us, parents' attention. Since the child has an impression of you, it is better to let her go back to live with you for a while."

Qiao Zhen Jun frowned again.

Fang Xiao Juan was angry when she saw his hesitant reaction. Still, she had to hold back her anger: "I don't want Xiao Qiao to live with you forever. Isn't this a special situation? Once she is a little better, I will immediately bring her back."

Qiao Zhen Jun still didn't give the go ahead.

If he didn't know that Xiao Qiao lied and tricked Da Qiao into West Wood before, he would definitely agree. But now... he really didn't know whether he should nod his head.

Fang Xiao Juan was so furious that she gritted her teeth. Suddenly, she hugged Xiao Qiao and cried: "My poor child, you are like this and your dad doesn't care about you. Jiao Jiao, don't worry, no matter what you become, your mom doesn't mind. I won't leave you behind!"

When the people around heard Fang Xiao Juan's words, their gaze toward Qiao Zhen Jun immediately carried a blade.

"Only birth and not raise. Worst than a dog! Pah!" The old lady on the next bed spat at him.

"That's right. Judging by how decent he look, how can he be so irresponsible? Even if he dislike daughters, he can't be like this!"

"If this kind of man is my son-in-law, I have to beat him to death with a broom!"

Qiao Zhen Jun became the target of public criticism. His face instantly flushed: "I'm not..."

"Don't scold Child's Dad. There is a reason for him being on the spot. I and Child's Dad got divorced. He has a newly married-in wife. He must have asked his wife about this matter."

Fang Xiao Juan's eyes showed a glimmer of pride. She really wanted to please Qiao Zhen Jun this time. So this wasn't the opportunity to stir trouble. She spoke for him instead.

When everyone heard this, they immediately sympathized with her even more.

Under everyone's knife-like eyes, Qiao Zhen Jun didn't agree to let Xiao Qiao go back. Just changed his speech and said that he would go back and discuss it with Lin Hui.

Fang Xiao Juan cursed in her heart. Still, on the surface, she appeared virtuous.

Because Xiao Qiao's wound wasn't serious, the doctor said that there was no need to stay in hospital. He paid the fee and she was discharged immediately.

Back at the production team, the villagers saw the family of three coming back and immediately surrounded them.

"Hey, why did Xiao Qiao get out of the hospital so quickly?"

"Yes, the blood looked so terrifying at the time. I thought it was going to be bad!"

At that time, when Xiao Qiao was found in the West Wood, there was a lot of blood on her body and her clothes were dyed red. At that time, everyone thought she was dead.

Seeing so many people, Xiao Qiao hid behind her dad with a white face. As if she was terrified.

Usually, when Xiao Qiao saw people in the village, she would take the initiative to greet them. She was very well-behaved and sweet. Everyone can't help but be even more curious when they saw her coward away now.

Qiao Zhen Jun had no choice but to explain: "The doctor said that Xiao Qiao's brain was congested. She can't remember anyone."

When everyone heard that Xiao Qiao lost her memory, some were sympathetic, some were curious, and some were watching the drama.

"To hurt her brain at a young age! What if she can't remember anything in the future?"

"Can't remember? Doesn't that mean she become a fool? Like the fool from the next village?"

"Tsk tsk tsk, what a pity that such a good child prodigy has become like this!"

Qiao Zhen Jun didn't want Xiao Qiao to hear these nonsense. So he turned to her and said, "You follow your mom back. I'll see you when I'm free."

Xiao Qiao was even more afraid and held his hand tightly: "Dad, are you really going to see me? I'm so scared..."

Her little face was pale. Her big eyes were full of fear and anxiety. Like a lost animal, weak and helpless.

Qiao Zhen Jun felt a pain in his heart. He rubbed her head and assured, "Yes, Dad will see you when I'm free."

Xiao Qiao reluctantly let go of his hand then.

Qiao Zhen Jun took a few steps and saw Lin Hui standing under the tree in front of him with red eyes. His pupils shrank and he guiltily called, "Hui Hui!"

Lin Hui was able to hold back just now. Now she hear him call her nickname, her nose soured and tears almost spilled down.

When she saw them family of three standing together, the scene deeply stabbed her in the eyes.

Seeing Lin Hui turn around and leave, Qiao Zhen Jun quickly chased after her: "Hui Hui, don't run so fast. Be careful of the baby in your belly!"

Seeing that he only cared about baby, Lin Hui felt even more aggrieved. She ran as she supported her belly.

Qiao Zhen Jun was so frightened that his heart almost jumped out!

Seeing the two of them like this, everyone started to talk more and more.

"Old Second Qiao's wife must be upset to see her man standing with Fang Xiao Juan!"

"If it were me, I wouldn't be happy either!"

Fang Xiao Juan was old Second Qiao's ex-wife. The two have lived together for so many years. Now Fang Xiao Juan was a widow again. Who knows if they will rekindle something?

Seeing Lin Hui crying and running away, Fang Xiao Juan felt better than drinking a bowl of mung bean soup on blazing hot days!

Look, this was the beginning!

She will definitely take Qiao Zhen Jun back!

...

Lin Hui couldn't run fast with her big belly. Soon, Qiao Zhen Jun caught up: "Let me go! Why don't you go to your ex-wife and daughter. Why are you chasing me?"

Qiao Zhen Jun grabbed her hand and explained, "Hui Hui, I... I have nothing to do with Fang Xiao Juan!"

Lin Hui pursed her lips and didn't speak. Nor did she look at him.

Qiao Zhen Jun's face flushed with anxiety: "Hui Hui, what I said is true! How could I possibly be with her!"

Qiao Zhen Jun had always clumsy with his speech. His explanation were only those two sentences.

Lin Hui saw that he was sweating profusely, she couldn't bear it any longer. She bit her lip and asked him, "What's the matter with Xiao Qiao?"

She stood far away just now and didn't hear what they said. Just by Xiao Qiao's timid expression, it was completely different from before.

Qiao Zhen Jun repeated the doctor's words again.

After Lin Hui heard this, she snorted coldly from her nose: "Need family's care? So, are you going to bring her home?"

Under her watery gaze, how could Qiao Zhen Jun possibly dare to nod his head. But thinking of Xiao Qiao's situation, he felt that it would be irresponsible to do nothing. He couldn't help but be in a dilemma.

Lin Hui understood his character. She turned around and said, "I won't tell you off either. You'd better tell Dad and Mom about this!"

After she finished speaking, she turned away without looking at him.

Qiao Zhen Jun could only follow after her again.

In the evening, Qiao Xiu Zhi called them all to the old house for dinner.

After eating, Qiao Xiu Zhi went straight in, "Your second branch had already separated out. Your dad and I can't intervene in your affairs. So you decide whether you want to bring Xiao Qiao back! To not hurt Da Qiao again, your dad and I decided to bring Da Qiao back to the old house!"

After she finished speaking, she turned around and asked Da Qiao, who was sitting beside her, "Would you like to come back and live with your grandfather and grandmother?"

Da Qiao glanced at her mom with some reluctance, and finally nodded: "I would."

The cold sweat on Qiao Zhen Jun's forehead instantly flowed down: "Mom, I didn't promise to take Xiao Qiao back!"

Qiao Xiu Zhi raised her eyebrows: "You didn't now. What about in the future? If Xiao Qiao is crying and begging you, can you guarantee that you won't agree?"

Qiao Zhen Jun: "...I..."

It was just that before he finished speaking, he heard Lin Hui speak, "Dad, Mom, if I can, I also want to move back to the old house."

Qiao Zhen Jun's eyes widened. He looked back at her nervously and said, "Hui Hui, don't say it out of anger. We are husband and wife. How can I let you go back to the old house alone?"

But Lin Hui didn't even look at him. Treated him like a fart with an expression of disgust.

Qiao Zhen Jun took a critical hit: "..."

Qiao Xiu Zhi nodded: "Yes, then you can move in with little Dong Lin. If the old house can't accommodated you, we will buy a homestead from the production team and build one."

When Qiao Zhen Jun heard his mom's words, he became even more anxious. But before he could respond, he heard Qiao Hong Xia say...

"Mom, I also want to bring little Yi Ming back to live. Let Second Elder Brother and his family live in the small house!"

Qiao Zhen Jun almost knelt down. With a flush face, he directed to Qiao Hong Xia: "Third Younger Sister, don't make trouble for me at this time!"

Qiao Hong Xia uttered: "Second Elder Brother, I'm not making trouble! Your ears are too soft. Once Xiao Qiao and her mom beg you, you can't promise to not let Xiao Qiao come back. Once Xiao Qiao comes back, would Fang Xiao Juan's return be far? Since it's like this, we might as well make room for them earlier. So that you family of three can have a good reunion!"

Qiao Zhen Jun: "..."

Da Qiao stretched out her paws and said softly, "Grandmother, I want to take Gu Gu along with me."

Since they were all leaving, Gu Gu definitely couldn't stay there and be bullied.

Qiao Xiu Zhi rubbed her head, "Okay, take them all away. This matter is settled. You go back first. Tomorrow I will get Eldest to carry things for you!"

If Qiao Zhen Jun doesn't speak out now, his wife, children, and even the old hen at home will be lost!

He hurriedly shouted: "Mom! I really didn't want to bring Xiao Qiao back. But I think that as the child's dad, I have to do something. Such as giving the child more money to nourish her body. ."

Qiao Xiu Zhi raised her eyebrows and stared at him: "If Fang Xiao Juan used this as an excuse to get you visit Xiao Qiao often, would you go or not?"

Qiao Zhen Jun shook his head like a rattle and said with a strong desire to survive: "Won't go! I won't go even if I have to break my leg! If I have to go, I'll get Eldest Brother or Third Younger Sister to go with me. I'll definitely not go alone!"

Qiao Xiu Zhi said: "This is what you said. If you can't do it, you can't blame anyone for separating you from your wife and children in the future! Old Second's wife, give him a chance for the time being. If he can't do it, you can always move back!"

Qiao Zhen Jun eyed Lin Hui nervously, fearing that she would say "no".

Lin Hui lowered her head and pretended to consider for a while. Only then, she reluctantly nodded and said, "Okay, since Mom said so, I'll give him a chance. But there's only one chance. If you can't do it, I'll divorce you!"

She didn't really want to move to the old house.

Not to mention that there weren't enough rooms in the old courtyard, the two sister-in-laws weren't easy to get along with. Definitely not as comfortable as living in a small courtyard.

When Qiao Zhen Jun heard her mention the divorce at will, he frowned and stated, "Hui Hui, don't say that. It makes me sad!"

Lin Hui coldly snorted.

Feeling hurt is right!

She purposely wanted to make him feel bad!

Da Qiao looked at her dad, and then at her mom. She took out a white rabbit toffee from her pocket, peeled off the paper and handed it over: "Mom, eat candy. You'll be happy when you eat candy!"

Lin Hui rubbed her hair and gently spoke, "Mom won't eat it. You can eat it."

Da Qiao insisted on stuffing the milk candy into her mom's mouth and softly stated, "Mom, don't worry. If you divorce Dad, I'll go with you."

Qiao Zhen Jun grimaced: "..."

At this moment, he felt as if he had become a piece of poo. Receiving neglect and disgust from the whole family!

Qiao Hong Xia looked at her second elder brother's bitter face and almost couldn't hold back her laughter.

In order to restore his status, Qiao Zhen Jun couldn't wait to tell Fang Xiao Juan the result of the discussion the next day.

Fang Xiao Juan couldn't bear it any longer. She exploded on the spot: "Qiao Zhen Jun, you rubbish! I used to think you were useless, but didn't expect that you're not just useless now, but also have no sense of responsibility!"

Qiao Zhen Jun's face flushed red.

Qiao Hong Xia gave her a "pah": "If you think my second elder brother is useless, why do you want to go back to our Qiao Family?"

Fang Xiao Juan's face flashed red and white with anger: "When did I want to go back to Qiao Family? You broken shoe, if you talk nonsense again, see if I won't tear your mouth!"

Qiao Hong Xia sneered: "I'm a broken shoe, so what are you then? A broken shoe that stinks? My second elder brother said that he would buy Xiao Qiao meat three times and ten eggs every time. If this many things are called irresponsible, then we won't give it. Anyway, we can't bear this false name in vain!"

After their discussion last night, they decided to buy Xiao Qiao some food to send over every month.

Moreover, sending so many things every month can also stop the mouths of those gossipers in the production team!

This was also the reason why Fang Xiao Juan was furious!

Not only did Qiao Zhen Jun not accept Xiao Qiao back, but also didn't give her the slightest benefit. How can she not be angry?

Fang Xiao Juan glared at Qiao Hong Xia. Her eyes were red with anger. She couldn't wait to pounce on her and tear her apart!

Qiao Zhen Jun and Qiao Hong Xia didn't want to talk to her, so they left.

Fang Xiao Juan was so vexed that when she returned home, she slapped Xiao Qiao in the face: "You useless trash! Didn't you say that Qiao Zhen Jun would definitely take you back this time?"

Xiao Qiao was almost flew from her slap. A slap print appeared on her face. Glaring at her, Xiao Qiao said, "Mom, don't go too far!"

On the day she came back from the hospital, her mom had a card revealing session with her.

Both of them knew the other was reborn. They agreed on the aim of going back to Qiao's house. So they soon reached a cooperative relationship.

It was something that was supposed to be guaranteed. But for some reason, something cropped up with her dad!

It must be that old witch, Qiao Xiu Zhi's doing!

Fang Xiao Juan also thought of Qiao Xiu Zhi and hated her to death.

After the two discussed it, they decided to take action with Lin Hui. Since they can't get what they want, then kill the fish and break the net!

But before they could figure out a way to do it, the town's postman rode a bicycle to the production team and brought a letter to Fang Xiao Juan.

After reading the letter, Fang Xiao Juan immediately came to life.

She can be seen with her cheeks flushed with rosiness and affection at the corners of her eyes. She held the letter to her chest and happily twirled in circle.

Seeing her mom like this, Xiao Qiao leaned over curiously and asked, "Mom, who sent you the letter?"

Fang Xiao Juan handed the letter over and answered, "It's..."

As night fell, the night bug was playing a nocturnal song. Wang Yan Sheng glanced around before jumping into the pigpen.
