"What nonsense are you talking about …"
"Aiyo, it hurts …" Hu Xin shouted, holding her son's arm to stop him from leaving.
Ling Qiao had no other choice, seeing Hu Xin fall to the ground, he couldn't just stand by and watch. He carried Hu Xin in his arms, looked at Shu Shu, and said, "If you're hungry, cook for yourself, but I've already bought all the dishes. Don't go anywhere else, just wait here for me, do you hear me?"
She was laughing, but there was a hint of saltiness at the corner of her mouth. Her tears were so disobedient. She clearly didn't want to cry, but they flowed down her face.
"Did you hear that?!" Ling Qiao roared anxiously.
Hu Xin was in excruciating pain, "Son, don't worry about her, I …" I'm in so much pain I can't move. "
Ling Qiao gave a deep look at Shu Shu, then turned around and walked out of the door while carrying the injured Hu Xin.
The room returned to silence. Shu Shu couldn't help but cry from the pain in her heart. She covered her mouth to prevent herself from making a sound. She didn't want to cry in front of her mother.
Mommy, Mommy, look, a child without Mommy is so pitiful. Mommy, why did you just leave like that? What do you want me to do?
Ling Qiao quickly drove Hu Xin to the hospital. The film showed that Hu Xin's pelvis was broken and she needed to be hospitalized.
Shu Shu, this time we have caused a huge ruckus, why are you so disobedient?!
"Look look, look, son, when did your mother get slapped? I've been married to your father for more than thirty years and he's even been reluctant to hit me. But today, I've been beaten up by a little girl, saying that she's my daughter-in-law … who would believe that? Son, hurry up and divorce her. Even if you're cheating on her, it's not going to be good for you. It's hard to get a lawsuit, so just divorce early. I don't want to see her again. "
Ling Qiao listened attentively to what she was saying but did not reply. He looked at the ward and said lightly, "What is the defect? I'll go buy it. "
Hu Xin laid on the bed, unable to move at all. Her face was already smeared with oily ointment, making her look even more serious. However, her mouth didn't rest for even a moment, "Ling Qiao, did you hear what mother said? What a nice girl, you two have been around since you were young, you know what's going on, since when did she treat me like this? "It's always been filial piety and obedient, but what about Shu Shu? Mom can't take her unyielding personality. Can you bear it?"
Ling Qiao remained indifferent as he poured himself a cup of water from the thermos. "Drink some water. Aren't you tired of talking so much?"
How could her son be so stubborn? Previously, Tang Siqing said that he wanted to pursue his dreams, so he left him and just left, but he was also waiting for her to come back so that he wouldn't want his to introduce him to his. He didn't even look at the girls that were good to him, so at that time when his grandma forced marriage, she did not try to stop him, and she also did not want Ling Qiao to spend the rest of his life with a hopeless relationship.
The woman he had just married was in such a terrible condition. She had no upbringing, was an illegitimate daughter, had cheated, lied, disobeyed and even beat someone up. It was a good thing that Tang Qing had returned. The matters of the past were all in the past, and now that she had returned, she must be regretting it in her heart. No matter what, she was still better than Shu Shu.
As he was thinking, he heard Ling Qiao say he wanted to leave, "Mom, I'll be leaving first. I've already informed the family. Dad and the servant will be coming over very soon."
"Where are you going?" Hu Xin refused and stretched out her hand in the air, "You're not allowed to go to the Shu household, son. Listen to mom, don't go."
"Mom, the doctor said you are not to move. You should just lie down, I have to go find her."
"No, if you go, I'll get up right away …" Hu Xin threatened, "I've worked so hard to raise you. I didn't expect you to have a wife but not a mother, so how come I gave birth to a son like you? "I don't want to live anymore, I want to get up, I want to get up …"
"Mom, okay, I'm not leaving. I'm not leaving." Ling Qiao had no other choice. She was his mother.
At this moment, Tang Beiqing heard the news and came over. She sat on the wheelchair, her face full of worry. "Auntie, what's wrong?" How did you get injured like this? "
"Isn't she just an illegitimate daughter with great strength? Look at my face, it's already swollen like this!" Hu Xin raised his head and showed it to Tang Xiu and Qing Qing.
"Shu Shu?" It can't be, she has a very good personality, how could she … Is there some kind of misunderstanding? "
"Misunderstanding what? Even if she hit me, how could this injury of mine be fake? I can even hit myself? "
Tang Thirty-Six pushed his wheelchair over to the bedside and comforted, "Auntie, don't be angry. You need to take care of yourself to recover from your injuries. Your body's the most important thing."
Seeing that the two of them were able to get close, Ling Qiao silently took a step back.
Hu Xin alertly said, "Ling Qiao, if you take even a step out of the ward, I'll let you see my death."
Ling Qiao sighed, "I will go to the balcony to take a breather, you can watch the door."
He walked to the balcony and opened the window. A biting cold wind blew in from the window. The sky was dark and the snow could not melt. Where there were few traces of people and no one else to manage, the snow had solidified into ice, making it even colder.
Ling Qiao patted his pockets. He had forgotten to buy a cigarette. Even if he wanted to, he couldn't.
He turned around and looked at the sick bay. Hu Xin was holding Tang Shuiqing's hand as they talked, most likely telling her the truth. And Tang Shuiqing was as calm as ever, with a faint smile on her face. No matter what adversity she was in, she was always like this.
Three years ago, he had never thought that he would marry a woman other than Tang Siqing, but the truth was that it was still unsatisfactory. Tang Siqing had left, abandoning him to leave.
Joe, life is not what I want right now. I want to pursue my dream. I don't know when I'll come back. At that time, Tang Thirty-Six had spoken so viciously that there had been no room for him at all.
And now that she's back, he should be smiling, shouldn't he?! He should have pointed at Tang and said, You deserve it. You abandoned me, whom you loved so dearly, for the sake of the ballet, but you broke your leg and couldn't dance the ballet anymore.
If he still loved her, he would at least have some feelings for her. But he had none, he could swear.
The cold wind was bone-chilling, and it seemed as if a light snowfall had fallen from the gloomy sky. The cold wind caused Ling Qiao to be even more clear-headed.
Put it down, don't complain, don't hold it in, don't miss it...
Initially, the chaos was due to the attachment of the original blessings, but the original blessings were not necessarily the ones that were wanted now. What he wanted now was to see Shu's sweet smile every day, to give her an early morning kiss every morning, to be able to live a peaceful life with her every day.
Ling Qiao took out his cell phone and pressed the familiar number after he had finally sorted out his thoughts.
Shu Shu was sitting in front of the electric heater to warm up. It was extremely cold in the house. People really couldn't be too pampered. They didn't feel too cold in the past, nor did they feel cold. This was how they came here. After living at Chun Mu Courtyard for so long, they were actually not used to living at home.
"Achoo!" The fever had subsided, but the cold was still there. She took a paper towel and wiped her nose.
She did not dare watch TV, did not dare to go online, did not dare to receive calls from strangers, did not even dare to go out. All she wanted was to find a place to quietly pray for her mother, to pray that she could live happily and happily in another world.
Her cell phone suddenly rang. She took a look and saw that it was Ling Qiao's. After hesitating for a moment, she still picked it up, "Hello …"
"Have you eaten?"
"No, no appetite."
"You have to eat even if you don't have an appetite. This won't do."
"Take care of your mother, I'm fine."
"What your mom, it's our mom."
"..." Mom, is she okay? "
"The condition isn't very good. The pelvic bone is fractured and needs to be hospitalized."
Shu Shu let out a long sigh, not knowing what to say. Hu Xin was hit by her and fell because of her, but if there was a second time, she would have done the same thing. Hu Xin was the one who insulted her mother first.
"Wife …" He called out softly, his voice becoming extremely gentle.
"Hmm?" She answered along with the voice, as naturally as she could.
"Don't let your thoughts run wild, okay?"
"I'm not imagining things." Really not, I will only listen to you, want me to leave, or want me to stay, I will not listen to the third person's words.
"That's good …" Ling Qiao turned back to the ward and looked, only to see Tang Congee waving at him. "I know you're lazy and don't want to cook. Give me a moment, let's eat dinner together."
"Alright, I'll wait for you."
After hanging up, Ling Qiao returned to the ward.
"Shh, aunty is asleep …" "Let's go out and have a chat?"
Ling Qiao nodded and pushed her wheelchair out of the ward.
"You must be worried about ShuShu. Seeing how haggard you look, it's no wonder your mom is worried about you."
"I've been busy these past few days with matters related to Shu Shu's mother, so I don't have much time to rest." Ling Qiao raised his wrist and looked at his watch. It was the peak hours of the day, so the weather must be even more congested. He had to go and get some rest as soon as possible.
"Her mother has passed away, so she must be in a bad mood. You have to forgive her aunt's actions."
"I know. I still need you to advise me on my mother's side. Thank you."
"What are you saying? Why are you being so courteous with me?" Tang Thirty-Six saw his absent-minded expression and felt both resentful and hurt in his heart, but she couldn't show it, so she said indifferently, "Qiao, I've decided to undergo surgery. I've already signed for it in the afternoon, tomorrow."
"Alright."
"If the operation goes well, you can go home when you're done. You can just lie there and not move, either at the hospital or at home." "Qiao, if you're worried about ShuShu, then go quickly. I'm here to look after her. When Auntie wakes up, I'll talk to her."
At this moment, Ling Zhi Wei and his family's servant came out of the elevator. "Dad …" Ling Qiao immediately went up to welcome her. "Mom is sleeping inside. Her pelvis is broken, and she needs to stay in the hospital for a few days."
"How did this happen?"
Ling Qiao was silent. He turned his head to look at Tang Zeqing, then turned back and said, "Dad, I still have things to do. As for the details …" Let Suiqing tell you. "
Without waiting for Ling Zhiwei to say anything, Ling Qiao quickly walked in the elevator.
Tang Thirty-Six stared blankly at Ling Qiao's figure disappearing before his eyes. His plan of capturing his had already lost its effect.
Ling Qiao drove the car and deliberately took a detour to Phoenix District. At this time, several major roads were blocked, so it was still faster to take the detour.
As night fell, the Phoenix District became even more desolate. It was originally an old residential area, and when the wind blew, not a single person could be seen. Heaps and piles of snow were piled up messily and randomly, and the corners were dirty and messy.
In the past, he would never have come to such a place.
