In fact, the doctor was very confused.
The person who was obviously standing on the door of hell with both feet, suddenly healed!
If it spreads out, will the people think that their medical skills were too rookie?
Although Xiao Yi Ming consumed the jade bead, he was seriously ill after all. On top of that, he laid down for a good few days. He really didn't have much strength in his body. He fell into a small squat after running a few steps.
"Little Brother Yi Ming!" Da Qiao rushed towards him in distress and helped little Brother Yi Ming, "Have you fallen?"
Little Yi Ming raised his head, blinked his small eyes, and said aggrievedly: "Elder Sister Nian Nian, my butt hurts a bit!"
Butt hurt?
"Elder Sister Nian Nian rub it for you." Little dumpling Da Qiao's little hand was placed on little Brother Yi Ming's butt and she pressed it lightly.
Little Yi Ming's thin face instantly became red. He wiggled his body and whispered: "Little butt...can't be touched."
Since little Yi Ming burned his brain, he couldn't remember things. Not even his own name.
In order to teach him to protect herself, Qiao Hong Xia spent a huge amount of energy and time.
One of them was to make him remember that he can't let others touch his small machine and little butt. Although little Yi Ming's brain wasn't good, he can still remember it vaguely if he repeated it enough time.
So now that Elder Sister Nian Nian touched his little but, he felt a little bad. But he didn't know how to refuse.
Dumpling Da Qiao didn't hear little Brother Yi Ming's whisper. After touching it, she commented in her babyish voice: "Little Brother Yi Ming, your butt don't have flesh. It feel bony to touch."
His butt was bony under Elder Sister Nian Nian's hand?
This wasn't good!
He immediately turned his head and declared loudly: "Mom, little Yi Ming wants to eat meat. Little Yi Ming's butt has no flesh. Elder Sister Nian Nian's hand find it bony!"
Everyone: "..."
Qiao Hong Xia's eyes reddened again. She choked and nodded her head wildly: "Okay, okay. Mom will cook meat for you when we go back, so that your little butt will become fleshy!"
Her child laid there motionless not long ago. She thought she would lose him forever.
Unexpectedly, he came back alive in the blink of an eye. And had vigorously got off the hospital bed and told her that he wanted to eat meat!
Not to mention eating meat, she will get fairy meat for him if he wants to eat it!
Also, Yi Ming got better after Da Qiao touched him. Whoever dares to say that she is a calamity in the future, she will spit at their face!
Although Zhao Family were surprised that little Yi Ming "resurrected from the dead," they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after the shock.
Little Yi Ming wasn't dead. Qiao Family can't make trouble then!
Xiao Cui Hua turned to Qiao Xiu Zhi and said, "In-law, there is no problem with the child at all. Now you beat our family like this, how do you think this matter should be resolved?"
Got to pay fifty to one hundred yuan. If not, she won't let it drop!
Qiao Xiu Zhi smiled coldly: "The child is okay. Then you can deny the fact that you guys pushed the child into the water? And treat it as if everything has never happened? If you dare to answer one yes, I will immediately carry you to the riverside and dump you in the river!"
Xiao Cui Hua: "..."
People can't be be so domineering!
People can't be like Qiao Xiu Zhi!
It just happened not one of the many Zhao Family members resist!
Carry?
This madam was too aggressive, no?
The doctor looked at Qiao Xiu Zhi with shock.
Seeing that no one in Zhao Family dared to say anything, Qiao Xiu Zhi turned back to Qiao Hong Xia and said, "How do you going to solve this?"
Qiao Hong Xia's eyes burned with anger: "Dad, Mom, I want to divorce. I don't want to live with these beasts anymore!"
There was no hesitation in Qiao Xiu Zhi's words. She nodded and stated: "Then get a divorce!"
The doctor on the side was stunned again.
As the saying goes, choose to demolish ten temples over destroying a marriage. Which couples didn't have conflicts in this day and age? Who wasn't persuading peace and not divorcing?
And how shameful it was to divorce!
If someone in someone's family gets divorced, they won't be able to lift their heads outside!
This old lady agreed to her daughter's divorce without even thinking about it. Was this... really good?
Zhao Family was also shocked.
Although Xiao Cui Hua didn't like this daughter-in-law, Qiao Hong Xia, she never thought about her son divorcing her.
One, as the doctor thought, divorce was too shameful. Second, it was too expensive to get married!
If Zhao Jie Fang gets divorced, he will definitely marry again in the future. Won't the money for marrying a wife be paid by her?
Zhao Jie Fang was even more anxious: "Hong Xia, isn't the child all right? Why are you getting a divorce? Don't make a fuss. Let's pack up and go back to the production team."
Qiao Hong Xia spat on his face with a "pah", "Who's making a fuss with you? You are a rubbish! You can't even protect your wife and child. Go home by yourself!"
Zhao Jie Fang's face flushed red. He wiped the saliva on his face with his hand and continued to plead: "Hong Xia, this is my fault. Whether you hit me or scold me, I won't divorce you!"
Zhao Jie Fang was honest and hardworking. He didn't have a male ego. From these aspects, he was a good man.
But he had a fatal weakness. He listened to the his mom. His character was a complete rubbish!
Qiao Zhen Guo also listened to to his mom's words, but Qiao Xiu Zhi never deliberately made things difficult for his wife. As long as their general viewpoint was correct, she would never interfere with the husband and wife's affairs.
But Qiao Hong Xia wasn't so lucky.
Her mother-in-law, Xiao Cui Hua, was a sh*t-stirring stick. She had a strong desire for control. Everything must go they way she wanted.
Seeing third son obeyed his wife's advice, she felt uncomfortable and looked for Qiao Hong Xia's trouble at every corner.
The real conflict was due to the birth of little Yi Ming.
Little Yi Ming had small eyes. But both Qiao Family and Zhao Family had big eyes. Xiao Cui Hua suspected that Qiao Hong Xia had put a green hat on her son.
For this matter, there had already been a disturbance. If Zhao Jie Fang hadn't insisted that the child was his own, then Qiao Hong Xia would want to divorce him.
However, Qiao Hong Xia had steeled her heart: "It's useless to say anything. Whether you agree or not, I'm divorcing!"
She had made the wrong decision twice. If she made the wrong decision again this time, God will definitely not give her a third chance and will definitely take little Yi Ming away from her at that time!
Zhao Jie Fang saw her determination. The 1.78 meter man's eyes instantly reddened and squatted on the ground as he constantly beated his head: "I won't divorce! I don't want a divorce!"
Second Sister-in-law Zhao's eyes spun round and round: "As the saying goes, forcedly picked melons aren't sweet. Mom, from what I see Third Sister-in-law is set on divorcing. Let's not make it difficult for her. But Yi Ming is our Zhao Family. He should go back with us, right?"
When Da Qiao heard this, she immediately pulled little Brother Yi Ming to her side and hugged him tightly.
Fear flashed through her eyes. Little Brother Yi Ming will be snatched away by Zhao Family!
Little Yi Ming didn't understand the situation. He thought Elder Sister Nian Nian was playing with him and stood still obediently.
He raised his little head. Showing a mouthful of pearly teeth, he begged for praises: "Elder Sister Nian Nian, little Yi Ming didn't move."
Da Qiao rubbed little Brother Yi Ming's big forehead and said softly, "Little Brother Yi Ming is so good. When we go back, Elder Sister Nian Nian will give you sweets!"
Her dad gave her a wooden box and she packed all the candies she received in it. Now the box was half full of candies.
Little Yi Ming smiled happily when he heard that there was candy to eat.
With this smile, his eyes became smaller. Which formed a sharp contrast with Da Qiao's big apricot eyes.
When Xiao Cui Hua heard what her second daughter-in-law said, she slapped her thighs and jumped up: "Yes. Yi Ming is our Zhao Family's seed. He must stay!"
Qiao Hong Xia gritted her teeth with anger: "Don't think about it!"
Even if she must give up her life, she will take Yi Ming away!
Qiao Xiu Zhi didn't want to waste a single word with these idiots. She turned to look at the doctor and said, "Fellow doctor, when the police arrive, I hope you can help me give a statement!"
The doctor didn't expect that he would be involved. Startled, he uttered, "What statement?"
Qiao Xiu Zhi: "You just need to tell the police truthfully about the child's illness. Leave the rest to the police to investigate."
When the doctor heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief: "That's no problem. We will definitely cooperate with the police in the investigation."
When the child was admitted to the hospital, they asked family members what happened to the child. They said that the child accidentally fell into the river by himself and was only rescued after a long time in the river.
Unexpectedly, there was still a hidden secret in this. He never thought the child was probably harmed by his relatives!
When Zhao Family heard this, their faces became pale again.
"In-law, it's just a small matter. There is no need to call the police, right?" Xiao Cui Hua tremblingly addressed her in-law again.
Qiao Xiu Zhi didn't even look at her. She instructed Qiao Zhen Min: "Go to the police station to report the case. Say that someone deliberately pushed a child into the river. There are so many people in the production team. I don't believe no one saw it!"
"Okay, Mom. I'm going now!" Qiao Zhen Min straightforwardly responded and walked away with his legs.
When Zhao Family saw that they were serious, they trembled more.
Zhao Lao Er squeezed his neck and shouted: "Mom, what's there to be reluctant about? Since she want to divorce, let her. Want to take away Yi Meng, let her. It's just a fool. Staying at home will only waste food. Isn't it good that someone is willing to raise him now?"
How could Xiao Cui Hua be reluctant to part with her daughter-in-law and grandson?
She didn't want to spend money. Nor could she swallow this breath!
But now it was like this, she had to swallow it even if she can't: "In-law, what will it talk for you to not report to the police?"
Qiao Zhen Min stopped when he heard these words and looked back at his mom.
Qiao Xiu Zhi stated: "Three conditions."
"First, get Zhao Jie Fang divorce Hong Xia. From now on, your Zhao family is not allowed to harass Hong Xia for any reason. And don't let me hear anything bad about Hong Xia, otherwise I will only think that you have spread it!"
Zhao Family gritted their teeth with hatred: "..."
"Second, the child belongs to our Qiao Family. Starting now, Zhao Yi Ming will change his name to Qiao Yi Ming and will have nothing to do with your Zhao Family in the future!"
Zhao Jie Fang called out, "No, that's my child. I don't agree!"
It was a pity that his objection was no use.
Neither Zhao Family nor Qiao Family took his words seriously.
"This is the third one. You have to pay two hundred yuan as Yi Ming's expenses for nourishing his body!"
"Two hundred yuan? Are you dreaming!"
The first two Zhao Family members gritted their teeth and endured it.
But paying?
That was absolutely impossible!
Zhao Family hadn't separate yet. Every penny spent was everyone's. This money mustn't be paid out!
"No?" Qiao Xiu Zhi sneered, "Then give you another choice."
Zhao Family intuitively felt that Qiao Xiu Zhi couldn't spit out anything decent, but they couldn't help asking, "What choice?"
Qiao Xiu Zhi: "I will throw each and every one of Zhao Family into the river. How long little Yi Ming stayed in the river is how long you will stay in the river. As long as you do it, we don't need this two hundred yuan!"
Zhao Family: "..."
They knew nothing good will come out of her!
It was December. The river was almost frozen to ice. Letting them soak in the river water for half an hour was killing them, no?
Qiao Xiu Zhi looked at them: "Have you decided? If you don't want to choose either, then call the police!"
When Qiao Zhen Min heard this, he moved his legs and headed to the exit again.
What else can Zhao Family do?
They can't win with fist.
Argue? The other party couldn't bother with mouth when they can use fist.
Facing the female overlord Qiao Xiu Zhi, what else can they do besides complying?
In the end, Zhao Family gritted their teeth and signed the "unequal treaty". In their heart, they cursed the eighteenth generation of Qiao Family thousands of times!
Zhao Family didn't bring that much money out with them. So Qiao Xiu Zhi asked Qiao Zhen Min and Xiao Cui Hua to return to the production team to get the money. Once they got the money, they'll let the rest of Zhao Family go.
Two hundred yuan ah! This made Zhao Family more pained than digging their flesh!
Zhao Family left grinding their teeth. Only Zhao Jie Fang wasn't willing to leave.
He clenched his hands with his reddened eyes: "Hong Xia, I really know that I'm wrong. Let's not divorce. You and child go back with me."
Qiao Hong Xia turned her face away. Not willing to give him half of an glance.
Seeing his wife ignored him, Zhao Jie Fang turned to the child again: "Yi Ming, go back with Dad. on't you want to eat meat? Dad will buy it for you!"
Little Yi Ming obediently leaned in his elder sister Nian Nian's arms. He didn't raise his head even when he heard his dad's voice.
Da Qiao poked his little butt with her small hand: "Little Brother Yi Ming, when someone talks to you, you have to look into the other person's eyes. Only like this, you are a good boy."
Only then did little Yi Ming turn around to look at Zhao Jie Fang. Soon he turned around and asked with a baby voice: "Elder Sister Nian Nian, who is he? Little Yi Ming don't know him!"
"..."
The child's words pierced into Zhao Jie Fang's heart like a sharp knife.
He covered his face and wept bitterly.
...
Country folks didn't get a marriage certificate when they got married. Naturally there wasn't any divorce certificate for divorce. The two family discussing it out was enough.
Therefore, Qiao Hong Xia became a divorced person that day.
Because little Yi Ming was better, she didn't want to stay in the hospital and waste money. So she packed up her things and went back to Qili Village with her mom.
Back in Qili Village, it was inevitable to meet some people who love gossip.
"Hong Xia, this new year is almost over. Why are you only coming back to your maternal house now?"
"Where is your man? Why didn't he come with you?"
"You got so much luggage. It can't be that you quarreled with your man, right?"
Qiao Hong Xia's face flushed red. It was clear that she hadn't adjusted to everyone's gaze.
"Hong Xia is divorced. From now on, she and her child will live in Qiao's house."
Like the last time when Qiao Zhen Jun divorced, Qiao Xiu Zhi didn't intend to hide it this time.
Paper can't wrap the fire. They can hide it for a while but not forever. Since they'll find out sooner or later, it was better to be clear from the beginning.
Everyone: "!"
What?
Qiao Hong Xia also got a divorce?
Qiao Zhen Jun's divorce had shocked everyone back then. How long had passed since then? Now Qiao Hong Xia also divorced!
What exactly did this Qiao Family want to do?
It was embarrassing enough to have a divorcee in the family. One wasn't enough for Qiao Family, so they want two?
This Qiao Xiu Zhi
As parents, don't they hope for their children to be well. Instead of persuade them, she carried her child over to divorce. Now Hong Xia was divorced. It was mostly also Qiao Xiu Zhi's handiwork, no?
Some people's eyes fell on Da Qiao, thinking that this child was indeed ominous.
Qiao Zhen Jun was paralyzed. The two siblings got divorced. Wan Chun Ju saw blood and went to the hospital during the New Year. Come on. Better stay away from this child in the future!
Qiao Xiu Zhi didn't bother to pay attention to what these idiots thought and took Qiao Family back to Qiao's old home with her head upright.
Hearing the movement, Wan Chun Ju rushed out first. She shouted excitedly as she ran: "Dad and Mom, you are finally back!"
Seeing her like this, Qiao Xiu Zhi frowned: "Why are you running out so fast? Did something happen?"
Wan Chun Ju shook her head. Her bloated figure twisted and her tanned face displayed shyness. She whispered: "Nothing happened. It's just that I haven't seen Dad and Mom for a half a day. I miss you so much!"
Everyone: "..."
Wan Chun Ju's tone and appearance were obviously imitating Da Qiao.
It was just Da Qiao was a fluffy and tender dumpling. And her voice was cute and baby-like. If she said this, everyone will only think she was cute.
But with Wan Chun Ju, it was as if seeing a black mountain pig acting cute at you. The feeling... it was too terrible to describe!
Qiao Zhen Guo looked at his wife like a ghost: "Wife, I told you before. Don't talk like this. It's simply scary! Look at my goose bumps appeared again!"
As he spoke, he pulled up his clothes again. He was covered with goose bumps.
Wan Chun Ju: "..."
This man simply want to infuriate her to death!
She just wanted to say something nice to please her in-laws. It was enough that he didn't support her. Now he even held her back!
Qiao Dong Ying hid in the corner. She was laughing so hard that she couldn't straighten her waist.
Qiao Dong He saw her younger sister like this and pinched her. She whispered: "If your mom knows that you are messing with her, she will definitely not let you off!"
Qiao Dong Ying wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes and responded, "When did I mess with her? I just told her to go and please Grandfather and Grandmother by herself. Out of everybody, why did she choose to learn from Younger Sister Da Qiao. I'm gonna dead from laughing!"
Qiao Dong He recalled her mom's behavior just now and couldn't help covering her mouth and laugh.
Qiao Xiu Zhi had been tired after a long day. She didn't want to look at her eldest daughter-in-law's stupid face and walked passed her into the room.
They haven't drank a sip of water or eaten a bite of food since they went out. So they were extremely drained at the moment.
Qiao Xiu Zhi was really thirsty. When she picked up the water on the table and was about to drink it, Xue Chuan stopped her.
"This water is too cold. I will pour you a bowl of warm water."
Qiao Xiu Zhi handed him the bowl.
The action between the two naturally concealed indescribable warmth.
Qiao Hong Xia watched. Her heart felt envy and sadness.
When she married Zhao Jie Fang, didn't she have the idea of wanting to grow old with him?
She can be said to be growing on dog food. Under the influence of her parents, she had wanted to find a good man like her dad once she grew up. She had a lot of choices. Even until she was nineteen years old, she hadn't selected the right person.
People in the village said that her heart was higher than her destiny and thought she wanted to marry a rich man in the town. Fortunately, her parents did not force her to marry.
Just when she was about to compromise, Zhao Jie Fang appeared.
That summer, she was bitten by a poisonous snake on her foot. Zhao Jie Fang, who came to visit relatives in Qili Village, happened to pass by and rescued her.
At that time, he was holding her with his tanned face flushed. He had kept saying that he would take responsibility.
At that time she felt that this man was really honest and that it wouldn't be too bad to marry him. So later when he called a matchmaker to come over to ask for marriage, she quickly agreed.
The result
He was indeed very honest. Honest to the point where he can't protect his wife and child. What use was such a man no matter how honest he was?
Wan Chun Ju walked in with red face. Her eyes fell on Qiao Hong Xia and flashed: "Wasn't it said that Nephew Yi Ming is sick and hospitalized? He looked pretty energetic just now. Is he all better?"
Qiao Hong Xia came back to her senses. When she heard her talk about her child, a smile appeared on her face: "Yes. He's completely better. But his body is still a little weak. Will have to nourish him in the future."
Wan Chun Ju's heart "thump". Her instinct was saying something wasn't right!
The child was all better. And instead of going back to Zhao's house, she came to Qiao's house with a baggage. What was she doing?
Could it be that the two couples had a quarrel and she wanted to stay at her maternal home for a period of time?
Qiao Xiu Zhi drank the water that Xue Chuan poured her. She looked at the two daughters-in-laws and declared, "Hong Xia got a divorce. She will live at home in the future."
Wan Chun Ju: "..."
Chen Qiao Qiao: "..."
Divorce?
Why was there another divorce?
The expressions of the two sisters-in-law were exactly the same as those of the villagers. Shocked and speechless.
Qiao Zhen Jun, who was leaning on the kang, was also shocked: "Third Younger Sister, you divorced?"
Seeing her second brother, the aggrievances erupted within Qiao Hong Xia. She spoke with red eyes: "Yes, I am divorced just like Second Elder Brother. In the future, us two brother and sister can be company for each other."
Qiao Zhen Jun couldn't express his sadness when seeing Third Younger Sister looking like this.
He was a man. What's more, a paralyzed one. Whether other divorce him or not, it was more tolerable.
However, Third Younger Sister was a woman. When outside knows, who knows what they will say!
Third Younger Sister was a divorcee and got a child in tow. If she wanted to remarry in the future, she might not be able to find any good people.
If he wasn't paralyzed, he would be willing to support his third younger sister and nephew for the rest of his life. But now he...
Qiao Hong Xia looked at her second brother's self-blaming expression and comforted him: "Second Elder Brother, don't worry. I'll be fine! Mom said that as long as a person lives, there will be no obstacles that can't be overcome!"
Qiao Xiu Zhi nodded: "It's right for you to think like this! It's just a divorce. It's not the sky falling down. As long as you properly live your life, the days will always pass the better!"
Qiao Zhen Guo foolishly smiled, "Third Younger Sister, don't worry. You have Eldest Brother. You won't go hungry!"
Qiao Zhen Jun pondered for a while and said, "Third Younger Sister, there are more empty rooms in my place. Would you like to move to my place? Nephew can have Da Qiao as playmate."
Qiao Zhen Min said straightforwardly: "Third Elder Sister, I won't say too much about the affectionate things. As long as I can be of use, Third Elder Sister just speak!"
Qiao Hong Xia teared up again. Her nose was sour until the point of discomfort.
But this time she wasn't sad. She was moved.
This was her family!
When she needed them most, they stood behind her unconditionally to support her.
In the end, Qiao Hong Xia decided to live with her second elder brother.
First, to avoid getting into conflict with her sisters-in-law. Second, to help take care of her second elder brother.
Da Qiao and little Yi Ming were extremely happy when they knew that they could live together.
Dumpling Da Qiao took little Brother Yi Ming's hand and said like a little grown up, "Little Brother Yi Ming, half of Elder Sister Nian Nian's food will be shared with you from now on. This way you will soon have more meaty!"
Little Yi Ming tilted his head. His eyes smilingly narrowed into a crescent: "En, en. After eating meaty, little Yi Ming's butt will soon be meaty!"
From now on, it won't be bony to Elder Sister Nian Nian's hand!
The interaction of the two small dumplings was so funny and cute. Everyone couldn't help but laugh.
After Qiao Hong Xia left, Wan Chun Ju latched on Qiao Zhen Jun and said in a low voice: "Zhen Jun, Hong Xia really got a divorce?"
Qiao Zhen Guo sighed: "Wife, why is your mind getting worse and worse? After a while, will you forget all of us like Nephew Yi Ming?"
Wan Chun Ju: "..."
Her brain wasn't stupid. How could she have forgotten!
Wan Chun Ju took a deep breath and said, "I haven't forgotten! I just wanted to say, why don't you persuade her. There is already a divorcee in this family. What will people think of us now that we got a second?"
Qiao Zhen Guo looked at her strangely: "How would I know what people think of us?"
Wan Chun Ju half choked to death: "Why don't you understand? Two people in the family have divorced. Wouldn't you feel ashamed when going out?"
Qiao Zhen Guo finally understood what his wife meant: "Wife, do you think Second Younger Brother and Third Younger Sister being divorced making you lose face?"
Wan Chun Ju looked at her man's face and had a slightly feeling that she shouldn't nod her head: "...I don't feel ashamed. But think about these ten miles and eight villages. Except for Qiao Family, who else would divorce?"
What's more, two in one go!
Qiao Zhen Guo said with a proud look: "That's right. In these ten miles and eight villages, only our Qiao Family dare to divorce!"
Wan Chun Ju: "..."
What was there to be proud of?
Wan Chun Ju felt that there was simply a huge hole in her man's brain!
Qiao Hong Xia was divorced!
This news soon spread throughout Qili Village.
