"Master Xiao, do you remember the time you were looking for Epiphyllum..."
Chi Xiuchuan pushed his dessert plate in Xiao Xiao's direction.
The little white fox and the white snake unanimously gave this human a look of admiration.
Chi Xiuchuan couldn't help but smile.
He didn't see it, but Feifei and Taotie also looked at him with satisfaction.
...
Xiao Xiao let several monsters feast and looked at Chi Xiuchuan.
"Um."
Xiao Xiao said that he remembered it, and his face looked a little thoughtful.
"That's the family from which I borrowed Epiphyllum..."
"Something happened in their family."
Chi Xiuchuan's words verified Xiao Xiao's conjecture.
...
Xiao Xiao did not speak, but quietly listened to Chi Xiuchuan's narration.
"...Actually, it's not that family, it's the male owner's brother's family that has an accident..."
...
The family with the epiphyllum is named Tao.
He was once a patient of Chi's father.
After he recovered from his illness, he kept in touch with Chi's father and would send him gifts every year and festival.
I met Chi's father in the hospital a few days ago, and I told him about what happened at his brother's house.
...
The younger brother of a man named Tao is naturally also named Tao.
In order to distinguish the two people, they will be called Tao Da and Tao Erdai respectively.
Tao Er's first wife died in a car accident two years ago.
The six-year-old daughter was protected by her wife and miraculously survived.
However, perhaps witnessing the scene of her mother's death was too shocking. Even though the girl's physical injuries have recovered, the psychological trauma still exists.
The girl was speechless.
Although there is nothing wrong with her vocal cords, the girl cannot make any sound.
...
A year ago, Tao Er remarried.
The child is still young and needs his mother's company and care.
An intact family is also more helpful for a child's recovery.
...
The woman's surname is Yuan, and she is a gentle woman.
Very similar to her first wife's temperament.
He thought the child would like the new mother.
...
However, the child's condition did not change at all.
...
A week ago, the woman fainted at home.
He didn't find out until he got home from get off work.
The child is sleeping in the house.
He immediately called an ambulance.
...
The woman had a full body check-up.
Apart from being a little weak, no problems were found.
In desperation, the doctor could only tell the family that new discoveries might be made after further questioning after the patient wakes up.
Tao Er was a little irritable.
Fortunately, the woman woke up quickly.
...
The woman who woke up was a little confused.
here it is......
"How are you?"
Tao Er bent down and leaned a little closer.
Doctors also gathered around.
...
Seeing Tao Er's familiar face, the woman subconsciously wanted to smile.
But then she remembered something and the color drained from her face, and she shouted loudly, "Ah!"
"devil!"
"That kid is a devil!"
The woman suddenly sat up from the hospital bed.
But he was a little dizzy due to the excessive movement.
She waved her hands randomly.
Tao Er grabbed the woman's hand and said, "What?"
The woman's sudden shout startled him, and the look of horror and disgust on the woman's face made him feel a little uneasy.
"devil......"
The woman's eyes were wide open, as if she was crazy, "That child is a devil!"
...
The woman repeated the same words over and over and the inexplicable emotions in her heart made Tao Er frown impatiently.
"What devil?"
"Who is that kid?"
"Speak clearly."
...
"That's the kid!"
The woman's lips trembled, "How many children are there at home?"
"Isn't there just one?"
Tao Er was stunned, "You mean Qiqi?"
"What's up with her?"
The man frowned even more tightly.
Just now, he clearly saw that the child was sleeping well in the room.
...
"That child..."
The woman gasped loudly, "She's going to kill me!"
"What nonsense are you talking about?!"
Tao Er shouted, his face extremely ugly.
"How old is Qiqi?"
"She wants to kill you?"
"Did she kill you?"
The man stood up suddenly, his chest heaving violently.
He was really angry at the woman's words.
...
"Why can't she kill me?"
The woman's voice was louder than the man's, "Why else do you think I would be here?"
"She was the one who was harmed!"
"she-"
"enough!"
The man interrupted the woman's hysteria almost rudely, "That's nonsense!"
"What nonsense!"
The man took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Qiqi is just an eight-year-old child!"
"How could you say that about a child?"
"You are still the mother of the child!"
...
"You have something to tell me."
"Don't slander children!"
...
"I'm not her mother."
The woman sneered, "I don't have such a scary daughter!"
"you-"
Tao Er was furious and was about to say something when he saw the woman falling down softly.
man:?!
"Give way!"
The doctor who had been watching the "couple quarreling" with an inexplicable look on his face suddenly walked up quickly.
The ward fell into another kind of noise.
Tao Er walked to the corner and looked at the pale woman on the hospital bed with complicated eyes.
...
The hospital still couldn't find out what was wrong with the woman's body.
However, the woman's condition never improved.
Moreover, although it is not obvious, the woman's body is slowly deteriorating.
The hospital is in dire straits.
Traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine were used together, and finally the traditional Chinese medicine given by an old-timer temporarily alleviated the woman's condition.
But it's not a long-term solution.
But seeing the effectiveness of traditional Chinese medicine, the hospital finally had a research direction.
...
The woman's situation makes the man angry and unable to vent his anger.
Thinking that he had a child who was alone at home, and that he couldn't help much at the hospital, he took a taxi home.
Then he remembered that the child hadn't eaten dinner yet.
He became a little anxious while sitting in the car.
But whether it was the woman's incomprehensible words before or the woman's unknown physical condition, he had no intention of cooking.
He bought some food on the way back.
...
Opening the door, the quiet air made him feel inexplicably uneasy.
"Kiki!"
the man shouted.
He walked quickly to the child's room.
When he opened the door and saw his daughter sitting on the bed holding a doll, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Qiqi."
The man sat on the edge of the bed and reached out to touch his daughter's head, who looked confused and seemed to have just woken up.
The girl looked at the man dully.
The man gently tapped the girl on the forehead with his finger, "Aren't you hungry?"
The girl touched her belly and nodded.
"Then let's go out for dinner."
The man put aside the doll in the child's arms, "Dad bought a lot of things that Qiqi likes to eat."
A smile appeared on the girl's face.
But then, a puzzled expression appeared on the girl's face.
The man sighed inwardly.
This child is thinking about his mother.
Thinking of what the woman said in the hospital before, the man couldn't help but frown.
But soon, the man frowned and smiled at the girl, "Mom won't be here tonight."
