The two returned home and saw no one when they entered.
Zhao Ningchu hung her bag in the entrance hall and said while changing her shoes: "Xiao Bai, Mommy is back!"
No one responded.
Ji Xiuran said: "Are you in your own room?"
"It's possible that the child is more withdrawn when he is alone."
With that said, he walked towards Xiaobai's bedroom.
Zhao Ningchu gently pushed the door open and found Xiaobai lying on the bed sleeping, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
She walked towards the bed, looked at Xiaobai's sleeping face, and whispered: "Baby, mommy is back."
While talking, he reached out to touch Xiaobai's face.
When Zhao Ningchu's hand touched Xiaobai's cheek, he was immediately frightened.
So hot!
"Ji Xiuran, it's not good, it's not good..."
She shouted towards the door.
Ji Xiuran heard the sound and ran up.
"What's wrong?"
"Xiaobai has a fever."
Perhaps because of fear, Zhao Ningchu's whole body was trembling when he spoke.
"What to do? What to do?"
Ji Xiuran quickly stepped forward and touched Xiaobai's forehead, and found that it was indeed very hot.
"Don't be afraid, we are going to the hospital now!"
After saying that, he picked him up and hurried out.
When I arrived at the hospital, the doctor took my temperature, which was 40 degrees.
"How do you parents take care of your children? If they are sent to you later, who dares to accept them?"
When Zhao Ning first heard this, she felt extremely regretful.
I have been staying at the old house for the past few days and haven't gone home. I thought it would be inconvenient to take Xiaobai there, so I asked him to be taken care of by Zhao Zhenguo at home, but he didn't expect that he had a fever.
Ji Xiuran put his hand on her shoulder and comforted her softly: "Don't worry, Xiaobai is in good health and will be fine."
Hearing this, the doctor said, "Even if you are in good health, you parents must take care of your children. If you become a fool, you will regret it."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Xiuran shot a knife in the eye and said with a sullen face: "What did you say?"
The doctor was so frightened by Ji Xiuran's gloomy gaze that he didn't dare to say a word, and silently prepared Xiaobai's medicine and infusion.
Zhao Ningchu on the side saw this and quickly said: "Ji Xiuran, what are you doing? The doctor is right. It was our own negligence. Why are you so mean?"
After that, he said sorry to the doctor.
The doctor smiled: "Parents are also worried about their children."
Ji Xiuran pursed his lips and looked at Xiaobai, who was lying in Zhao Ningchu's arms and was confused by fever, and then said to the doctor: "Dr. Zhang, my tone was not good just now, so my son will trouble you."
The doctor didn't react for a while, but he nodded after a while: "You will be fine after a few days of infusion, don't worry."
Ji Xiuran said nothing and walked up to Zhao Ningchu: "I'll hold him and give him the infusion."
Zhao Ningchu shook his head.
"I'll hold it."
If he hadn't been left at home these days, Xiaobai wouldn't have suffered this crime.
"The infusion will take several hours, and you're still pregnant."
When Zhao Ningchu heard this, although he was a little reluctant, he still handed Xiaobai to Ji Xiuran.
"Mommy..."
Xiaobai suddenly spoke.
When Zhao Ningchu heard this, her nose felt a little sore and she quickly hugged Xiaobai.
"Mommy is here, she's holding her."
"Mommy, am I feeling uncomfortable?"
"It's okay, just hold on, it'll be fine in two days."
"Mommy, are you still leaving?"
Zhao Ningchu shook his head: "No, honey, I'm sorry for leaving you alone at home."
Xiaobai shook his head and said nothing.
Ji Xiuran on the side reached out and touched Xiaobai's cheek, coaxing her softly.
"Son, you'll be fine with an injection."
When Xiaobai heard about the injection, he immediately struggled to sit up.
"No, I don't want an injection."
"The injection heals quickly."
Xiaobai looked at the needle in the doctor's hand and showed great resistance: "No, I want to go home. I don't want the injection. Mommy, can you take me home?"
I had a car accident last time and was hospitalized. I had injections every day during the day, and now I see shadows on the needles.
"Son, just one shot, just one shot and you'll be fine."
Ji Xiuran answered: "Yes, it's quick and painless. Besides, you are a man and very brave, aren't you?"
Xiaobai sniffed and resisted in a low voice.
"I don't want injections."
"It won't hurt if Mommy hugs me."
"It hurts. Mommy lied."
"This time I'll ask the doctor to prick it gently. It won't hurt if you don't move."
Xiaobai still didn't want to.
With no other choice, Zhao Ningchu had no choice but to use his trump card.
"When you get better, I'll take you to play with Nini, okay?"
When Xiaobai heard this, his eyes lit up.
"real?"
"Really, as long as you behave, mommy will take you to find your sister."
"My sister is not Xiaobai's sister now, but Xiaobai's elder."
When Xiaobai said this, his expression was a little lonely.
"Then you don't want to see Nini anymore??"
"I thought."
"Then just do the infusion obediently."
Xiaobai lowered his eyes and sighed, then stopped talking.
Zhao Ningchu squeezed his hand and slowly let go after seeing the doctor successfully inserting the needle for him.
"Look, mommy said it doesn't hurt."
"Mommy, I'm hungry."
Zhao Ningchu was a little surprised: "You haven't eaten?"
Xiaobai nodded.
"Where's grandpa?"
Just when Zhao Ningchu wanted to ask more questions, Ji Xiuran said from the side: "Okay, don't ask. I'm going to buy some porridge for my son. You let him have a good rest."
Zhao Ningchu looked at Xiaobai's lack of energy and didn't ask any more questions.
'Baby, you go to sleep first, mommy will hold you, and your dad will buy you something to eat.'
Xiaobai hummed, then closed his eyes obediently and slept in Zhao Ningchu's arms.
Because Xiaobai's cold was a bit serious, he couldn't go home even after the infusion, and the doctor asked him to be hospitalized.
It wasn't until the evening that Zhao Zhenguo called.
Zhao Ningchu looked at the notes on the phone with a cold look in his eyes.
'Hello……'
'Xiaochu, Xiaobai is missing.'
Zhao Zhenguo spoke in a panic.
Zhao Ningchu looked at her sleeping son and said calmly: "Dad, Xiaobai is in the hospital."
After saying that, he hung up the phone directly.
Zhao Ningchu didn't want to ask who was right or wrong. It was because she didn't keep her child with her that she became ill.
She admitted that she was very unhappy with Zhao Zhenguo, because Zhao Zhenguo did not take care of Xiaobai, which caused Xiaobai to get sick.
But even so, she knows on the other hand that no one has the obligation to help you take care of your children. It is your duty to help whether it is your mistress or not, even your parents.
Within two minutes, Zhao Zhenguo called again.
Zhao Ningchu obviously lost his patience and didn't want to talk to him.
Ji Xiuran on the side saw this and reminded him: "Aren't you going to answer your dad's call?"
"in spite of!"
"Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Zhao Ningchu said nothing.
Ji Xiuran took Zhao Ningchu's cell phone and answered the call.
"Hey, um, I'm in the hospital, the city hospital, okay!"
Ji Xiuran hung up the phone and whispered: "He is coming over."
"What did you ask him to come over for?"
"Don't you also want to know what's going on? You can ask if you just come over, but don't lose your temper."
Zhao Ningchu made a sound.
Ji Xiuran stepped forward and held her in his arms.
"Don't worry, Xiaobai will be fine. It's just a minor illness. Don't think about how serious it is."
When Zhao Ningchu heard this, he immediately became unhappy.
He pushed Ji Xiuran away.
"Ji Xiuran, do you really only like your daughter?"
Ji Xiuran heard this and quickly glanced at Xiaobai. Fortunately, Xiaobai fell asleep.
"How is that possible?"
"But this is how you make me feel, like a little cotton-padded jacket all day long."
'To say that I like him, I actually like Xiaobai more. I always feel that I owe him a lot.'
When Zhao Ningchu heard his words, she knew that Ji Xiuran was talking about the five years they were separated.
"Why am I not?"
"Don't worry, it's okay, don't worry!"
Zhao Ningchu sat beside the bed and reached out to touch Xiaobai's cheek, her eyes full of guilt.
At around nine o'clock in the evening, Zhao Zhenguo appeared in the ward, but Zhao Ningchu ignored him.
Zhao Zhenguo also knew that he was in the wrong, so he quickly apologized.
"Xiaochu, I'm sorry, I didn't take good care of Xiaobai."
Zhao Ningchu controlled her emotions and raised her eyes to look at Zhao Zhenguo.
"Dad, what's going on? You didn't even know Xiaobai was sick and you weren't at home?"
"This is not because your Aunt Chen and I have something to deal with, so I asked Xiaobai's aunt to help take care of him. This was an accident and it won't happen next time."
'Aunt?'
"Just Sisi?"
When Zhao Ningchu heard this, the suppressed anger in her heart suddenly burst out.
"You asked Chen Sisi to take care of my son. Dad, what do you want to worry about?"
"No, you misunderstood."
Zhao Ningchu exhaled heavily.
"You've seen it all, just go back, it's too late."
"Xiaochu, Sisi has repented and repented. Don't be angry. This was an accident. She..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhao Ningchu interrupted with a roar: "Get out!"
Zhao Ningchu was really angry. She didn't expect that Zhao Zhenguo would let Chen Sisi take care of her son.
"Xiaochu, I..."
"I'll tell you!"
Zhao Zhenguo hesitated and looked at Ji Xiuran,
Ji Xiuran stepped forward and said: "Dad, Xiaobai doesn't have any big problems now. He can just stay in the hospital for a few days. You can go back first. We will take care of him here."
Ji Xiuran said so, what did Zhao Zhenguo say?
'Xiao Chu, then dad will come over tomorrow and bring you breakfast.'
Zhao Ningchu ignored it, and Zhao Zhenguo turned around and left the ward boredly.
After walking out of the hospital, Chen Manxue and Chen Sisi hurriedly gathered around her.
"Zhenguo, what's wrong?"
"Xiaochu is very angry." After saying that, he looked at Chen Sisi.
"Sisi, I asked you to take good care of Xiaobai, how can you keep him around?"
Chen Sisi snorted and said nonchalantly: "How did I know that he was in such bad health? Besides, this is my first time taking care of a child, so I don't have any experience."
"How on earth did you take care of me? Why did you end up with a fever of over 40 degrees?"
Chen Sisi hesitated and said: "I forgot to turn off the floor heating last night, so..."
Hearing this, Zhao Zhenguo angrily pointed at Chen Sisi and yelled: "You, why are you so careless? How do you want me to explain to Xiaochu now?"
Chen Sisi said nonchalantly: "Is there anything to explain? Aren't you a good person?"
Chen Manxue on the side heard this and also joined in: "Speaking of Zhenguo, what did you do to my daughter? If it hadn't been for Zhao Ningchu, would my precious daughter have been in jail?"
"you……"
Before she finished speaking, Chen Manxue interrupted: "Okay, just worry less. I mean, the child is fine."
"This is a critical period. You've offended someone before you even moved in. When the time comes, she won't allow you to move in. What else can I say?"
Chen Manxue realized this after hearing this.
During this time, Zhao Ningchu was not at home, and they all forgot that the villa belonged to Zhao Ningchu.
Chen Manxue said: "What should we do now?"
"How do I know what to do?'
"Do you think Zhao Ningchu would disagree with us being together? He wouldn't be stingy enough to let Ji Xiuran deal with us, mother and daughter, because of this matter."
Zhao Zhenguo remained silent.
Chen Manxue continued: "I said Zhenguo, but if you want me and you to get back together, you must protect our mother and daughter."
"I will deliver breakfast to them tomorrow morning, and you take Sisi with me."
When Chen Sisi heard this, she immediately became unhappy.
"If I don't go, why should I follow?"
"Apologise well and maybe this matter will be over."
"don't want!"
Zhao Zhenguo looked at Chen Manxue helplessly: "Manxue, please persuade her tonight, I will go back first."
Seeing that he was about to leave, Chen Manxue quickly stopped him: "If you don't send us back, it's so late, so don't worry about our mother and daughter."
"You can just take a taxi to the downstairs of your rental house. What are you afraid of?"
“How can I take a taxi if I don’t have money?”
Zhao Zhenguo: "Didn't I give you 10,000 yuan before? It was gone after only a few days?"
When Chen Manxue heard this, she immediately became angry.
'I said to Zhao Zhenguo, we haven't officially been together yet, and you are so picky. If you are like this, then let's not get married. I will live alone.'
"No, that's not what I meant, Man Xue. My current situation is no better than before. We can't spend money so lavishly."
"I don't care. I don't have any money anyway. You can give me a taxi back."
Zhao Zhenguo reluctantly took out his mobile phone and transferred money to Chen Manxue.
When Chen Manxue heard the news of the payment, she happily took out her mobile phone to see how much Zhao Zhenguo had given her.
As soon as he saw the amount, his expression suddenly changed.
"You give me two thousand yuan to send the beggar away."
'I don't have much money?'
'Who will believe it if you tell me, Zhao Zhenguo, I think you just want to live with me sincerely.'
"I live with my Xiaochu now. He gave me a card, but I didn't touch hers."
‘Where’s the card?’
'I didn't take it out at home.'
"Give it to me tomorrow."
After saying that, he took Chen Sisi and left.
Zhao Zhenguo looked at the backs of mother and daughter and sighed silently.
next day
Zhao Zhenguo came to the ward early with a prepared breakfast.
Xiaobai was lying on the bed for infusion, and Zhao Ningchu sat beside the bed to accompany her.
Ji Xiuran went to the company for a meeting at work after the holiday.
"Xiaochu, I brought you preserved egg porridge!"
Zhao Ningchu raised her eyes and looked at Zhao Zhenguo's smiling face, and said calmly: "Let it go."
"Xiaobai is having an infusion now, let's give him some padding first."
"Wait until he finishes losing before eating."
"Okay, then I'll leave it alone."
Zhao Zhenguo put the lunch boxes and bags on the table nearby and stood aside.
When Zhao Ning first saw that he was still there, she said, "Dad, please go back."
"Xiaochu, I apologize to you for what happened yesterday, so please don't be angry."
Zhao Ningchu said nothing.
Zhao Zhenguo continued: "Sisi didn't mean it. She felt very guilty after knowing it and said she wanted to come over to apologize to you in person and see the child."
When Zhao Ning first heard this, she raised her eyelids: "Guilty?"
"Yes, I went back to tell her last night. She didn't mean it. She followed me here early this morning. She is standing outside now. Do you want her to come in?"
