Grandma got off the operating table and wanted to call her granddaughter when she woke up, but found that the phone at home couldn't get through.
Previously, she had been in the hospital for examination and treatment. Sometimes, as soon as Yu Zhi called, she had to interrupt when the nurse came in. Sometimes when she called, she could only tell her granddaughter, "Wait again and again, and after a while, my grandmother will be there. came back."
During the time before the operation, she was in a bad mood and had less contact. She was relieved until she got off the operating table safely.
"Xiaoqing, why can't I get through on the phone at home?"
"Ah..." Ruan Qing didn't know either.
When they first got divorced, Yu Kai called every day to ask for reconciliation, but she didn't answer because she was annoying. Yu Kai even asked her brother and sister-in-law next door to intercede. Later, when her sister-in-law called to talk about Yu Kai, she just hung up.
Speaking of which, it's true that I haven't been in touch for almost a month.
"Mom, wait, I'll call and ask."
Just as Ruan Qing was about to call Yu Kai, her youngest daughter ran into the ward with strawberry-flavored ice cream in her hand, "Look Mom, the ice cream that Uncle Zhao bought for me!"
There was another man following Yu Xinyan, who was wearing a suit and looked much more pleasing to the eye than Yu Kai.
"Hey, tell you not to be used to her."
"It's okay, the child likes to eat, so it's okay to buy one for her." The man shook his head with a smile, put the supplements in his hands on the table, and greeted the old man on the hospital bed.
Grandma knew that her daughter's divorce was because Yu Kai lost her family, and seeing outstanding people appeared, it was not easy to delay her daughter's marriage, so she did not mention things related to her ex-husband in front of him.
After going back and forth, the call was delayed again.
—
It was already afternoon when Shi Yi rushed to the town hospital.
When he found the ward, he hurried upstairs and almost fell in the stairwell.
Along the way, he couldn't help but think about why the little girl was sick and entered the hospital, but those conjectures were far less shocking than the scene in front of him.
Snow-white gauze was wrapped around his forehead, gauze was also attached to his right cheek, and scars were still visible on his chin.
Seeing the little girl lying quietly on the bed with bandage marks all over her face, he couldn't even believe that it was Yu Zhiyi.
The little girl who used to laugh at him and hold his arm coquettishly, is now lying lifeless on the hospital bed...
When Shi Yi raised his head, both eyes were red, like scarlet blood.
Even Ning Suya, who came over, was startled, "How could this happen?"
Yeah, how could this be
The aunt who was standing beside the bed said hesitantly, "It was said that the wine bottle smashed it..."
I still remember that Yu Zhiyi knocked on the door of their house with blood all over his face, and a weak voice called for help. When they looked over, they found that Yu Kai was still lying in the room, drunk and unconscious.
"At that time, her uncle and I took her to the hospital overnight, and the doctor took out the fragments and stitched her face..." It was so cruel to say it, let alone the little girl who had experienced all this herself.
"She was crying all the time when she was brought here." Auntie said, covering her face and crying.
She admitted that she was a bit mean and mean, but when she saw that the niece in her husband's arms was so petite and thin, as if she would die if she was not careful, her heart was really touched.
"In the end, it's the child who grew up watching him, how could I not feel distressed."
"I really don't understand how her dad can do it!"
At the end, my aunt began to scold again.
Seeing that she couldn't control her emotions, Ning Suya quickly comforted her and pulled her aunt out, "Let's go out and talk, don't disturb the patient."
There are other people in this ward, and it's not a place to talk about things.
Shi Yi didn't say a word, but listened from the beginning to the end.
He understood, Yu Kai was violent to his daughter's family!
Everyone thought that even if the child was unhappy with his father, he would still have a home, but he never thought that the father would be so cruel.
Shi Yi bent down and stood beside the bed, holding her hand gently. The weak and boneless little hands are so slender, the ice-cold cover is not hot.
How fragile was the little girl lying on the bed, so fragile that only the slight sound of breathing proved that she was still alive.
"One by one, I'm sorry."
"Brother is late."
He almost... He almost lost her.
He should have known that the little girl has gone through so many things, and her heart is so sensitive! She always hides her pain, tries her best to show everyone her best side, and pleases her carefully, for fear of being abandoned.
How could he believe her only by listening to the words "it's okay" on the phone
He should have known!
"Yi Yi is still a little idiot, doesn't brother love you enough? He didn't dare to tell me when he was wronged." He wanted to ask her to wake up, open his eyes and see, he was back.
He wanted to tell him personally and prove it with his actions, "One by one has not been abandoned, my brother will always be there."
Someone once asked him, "Don't you hate those naive children the most? You dislike their cognition and can't keep up with your IQ, so why are you guarding Yu Zhiyi?"
His answer is always: "I will!"
Yes, guarding Yu Zhiyi, he is happy!
From her babbling to toddlerhood, he has always looked at her and never regarded her as a trouble.
He only knew that when the little girl with pink makeup and jade cut her face raised her face and called out "brother" for the first time, he wanted to protect her!
All the time, no deadline.
Yu Zhiyi woke up at night.
Shi Yi has been with her all the time, and he can find out if there is a slight movement.
Shi Yi rang the bell and called the doctors and nurses to come to check, Yu Zhiyi opened his eyes slightly, his eyes blank.
After sobering up, Yu Kai was full of guilt, and subconsciously rushed over to ask about his daughter's condition.
However, the moment he appeared, fear appeared in Yu Zhiyi's eyes, she grabbed the snow-white bed sheet and wanted to hide.
Shi Yi quickly took her hand, "One by one."
Hearing Shi Yi's voice, she seemed to grab a life-saving straw and tried her best to lean towards him.
Yu Kai stretched out his hand, and Yu Zhiyi screamed in fright.
Shi Yi patted her back to comfort her, but it was useless.
He looked up at Yu Kai with a cold expression, "Uncle, can I ask you to go out first?"
Everyone knows the reason why Yu Zhiyi avoided, seeing her gentle and well-behaved daughter become like this, Yu Kai regretted it.
There is nothing wrong with Yu Zhiyi's body, but her wounds are all on her face, which is harder for a girl to bear than physical pain.
In order to appease her emotions, Yu Kai did not dare to appear in front of her. Aunt brought some light food, but Yu Zhiyi refused to eat it.
She said she couldn't eat it.
At first, no one forced her. She wanted to wait for her to eat when she was hungry, but she didn't seem to feel hungry, and she didn't speak all day.
Shi Yi held the bowl containing the rice porridge to her mouth, but she still refused to open her mouth, and simply put her head away silently.
"Aren't you hungry yet?"
She still replied, "I can't eat it."
Shi Yi patiently coaxed her, "Eat a little, brother feed you."
The spoon touched his lips, and Yu Zhiyi couldn't bear to refuse after all, opened his mouth slightly, and swallowed it reluctantly.
Shi Yi breathed a sigh of relief and handed out the second spoon.
But just as Yu Zhi stuttered, she suddenly lay beside the bed and vomited.
She didn't spit it out, her face was flushed with choking, and tears hung in the corners of her eyes. This movement affected the wound on her face and made her feel extremely uncomfortable.
She's not being temperamental, she really can't eat it.
Yu Zhiyi's situation was more serious than they thought.
The doctor said: "According to the latest examination results, her body is fine, and the patient may have serious psychological problems."
The heavy psychological pressure and the pain of the injury made her lose her appetite, and the food she fed in would be spit out. They could only choose to infuse nutrient solution.
Yu Kai had no money and had to contact the child's mother.
My uncle also called and Ruan Qing finally answered, "Brother, what's the matter?"
"You still know how to answer the phone! Your daughter is dying, do you know that?" The uncle's words were a bit harsh, but it really scared Ruan Qing.
In the end, the uncle still told the truth, Ruan Qing's hand was shaking while holding the phone, "One by one, one by one, is she okay?"
"I'll be right back, I'll be right back..."
When my grandmother heard that her granddaughter had an accident, she could not wait to be discharged directly from the hospital, but halfway through her treatment, the doctor did not allow her to leave at all.
Ruan Qing comforted her mother, saying that she would go back to take care of the child immediately, and promised to report the real situation to her, and her grandmother settled down.
The old man lay on the bed, wiping his tears silently, "One by one..."
Such a good boy, how could he have such a father!
It's also her fault that her body is useless, and she can't even go back to accompany the child.
—
When Ruan Qing rushed back, her uncle was still relieved, thinking that the child would always care about his mother.
But no one thought that when Yu Zhi saw Ruan Qing, he seemed to see a stranger, looking down and playing with his fingers, feeling gloomy.
Ruan Qing walked over and wanted to touch her daughter.
But as soon as she touched it, she started to hide again.
"One by one, I'm my mother, and my mother is back." Ruan Qing burst into tears when she saw her smart and lovely daughter become like this.
But it was useless, no matter what Ruan Qing said now, Yu Zhiyi's response to her was to avoid.
When she needed companionship and love the most, they were stingy with giving, so now, she doesn't want it anymore.
Don't want anything.
She is an abandoned child who no longer has any extravagant hopes.
When Ning Suya came to the hospital after get off work, she heard two voices arguing on the side of the corridor.
It sounded familiar to her, but after a closer look, it was really Yu Kai and Ruan Qing.
"How can you be so cruel! She is your biological daughter, how can you do it?"
"Do you know how many stitches she had on her face? What a pain! I'm only fifteen years old, if... If the face that a girl cares about most is gone, what do you want her to do in the future?"
Most girls love beauty, so Yu Zhiyi couldn't care less about her appearance, but after she woke up, she basically didn't take the initiative to say anything except answering a few simple questions.
Ruan Qing said a few words and cried again, and reached out and pushed Yu Kai a few times.
Yu Kai irritably wiped his hair and squatted on the ground.
Annoyed by the quarrel, he couldn't help but retort: "You said me, have you taken care of her? You didn't walk away cleanly at the beginning, don't think I didn't know that you had a good relationship with that surname Zhao long ago. Now, you are looking forward to taking Yanyan to remarry, where do you still remember one by one."
Ruan Qing was even more excited, "What are you talking about! How can you say that to me! You were the one who made a stupid bet and lost the money to buy a house. What right do you have to blame me?"
Hearing this, Ning Suya sighed helplessly.
The daughter is like this, and the physical and psychological double blows. While the couple is sad, they still don't forget to pass the buck to each other.
Say they don't love their daughter, they will feel distressed, regretful, and have no intention of throwing away the child. Say they love their daughter, parents are not responsible enough to hurt a good child like this...
—
The cost of Yu Zhi's surgery was paid by his uncle, and Ruan Qing returned the money to him after returning.
Because of this, she scolded Yu Kai again, saying that he was useless as a big man and couldn't even pay for her daughter's medical expenses.
Yu Zhiyi's face injury needed time to recover, but she couldn't stay in the hospital all the time, because they couldn't afford the expensive hospital bills.
A few adults discussed taking Yu Zhi home and leaving him to take good care of him.
Afraid of disturbing the children, they stood in the corner and talked quietly.
"If you go back one by one, who are you going to let her take care of?" Ning Suya, as a bystander, had the clearest head.
Yu Kai and Ruan Qing, uncle and aunt looked at each other.
It was not easy for everyone to speak first, or my aunt couldn't help it, and began to nagging meanly: "You guys are really good, how good one was before, I don't complain about cooking and housework every day, now it's okay, I'm missing one Helper, and distracted to take care of him, who has so much free time?"
I must have wanted to shoot the person who said this before, but now it sounds like it is true.
Isn't that what happened to Yu Zhiyi
When it was really dangerous, it was the aunt and uncle who saved the child's life.
When it was the turn of the biological parents to express their position, Yu Kai shook his head helplessly, "One by one I don't want to see me at all now, how can I take care of her?"
As soon as Yu Zhi saw him, he avoided him, and felt fear and resistance to his father, which was indeed inconvenient to take care of.
Said Ruan Qing again...
"It's not that I don't want to take care of my daughter, not to mention that I can't leave my job there. Yanyan needs me to take care of her, and my grandmother needs me to take care of her now. I really can't take care of three people."
It's true that I feel sorry for my daughter, and it's true that I can't separate the spirit to take care of her.
Looking at aunts and uncles, they also have to work, so it is a love to take care of you. If they don’t want to accept it, they can’t force it.
Ning Suya understood.
"So you are, can't take care of one by one?"
The four were silent.
Ning Suya, who is usually good-natured, laughed angrily, a mocking smile, "It's a shame that you are still elders, blood relatives. I am not afraid to say something to offend you when I stand here today. , which teacher at school doesn't praise her for being quiet and obedient? Which neighbor in the yard doesn't praise her for being sensible? Now it's like this because of the little things between you adults!"
"It's better for you, all of you are throwing your hands at the hands of the shopkeeper. Do you want to let the injured child be self-reliant?"
"Don't think that children who are sensible don't need care. It is precisely this kind of child who is the most sensitive at heart. I really don't know what you think. If this is my daughter, I will never let her suffer!"
"Don't say it's the child who is sensible and helps with the work. I would rather she be squeamish and do nothing. It's better than being sensible and not loving her mother and not being loved by her family, and she will end up with domestic violence!"
This time, Ning Suya was really in a hurry.
As relatives, they were reprimanded by outsiders, but they couldn't refute them. Every word of Ning Suya pierced their hearts, but even so, this troublesome problem still could not be solved.
They didn't notice that the little girl standing at the door of the ward was clutching the door frame, her fingers trembling.
She turned and went into the bathroom, closing the door.
Looking up at himself in the mirror, the embarrassing gauze was wrapped around his forehead, the medicine was stuck to his cheek, and the scar on his chin was not healed.
"It's ugly..."
Yu Zhiyi, you are so ugly.
No one would call her cute again.
What is the use of being sensible, and what is the use of being able to work.
"They all say you're cute and sensible..." She stared at the mirror and whispered, as if she saw her former self through the mirror.
"But even so, you will be abandoned. Why did you ask for help at that time?"
If she hadn't called for help, she would have died peacefully that night, and now those people wouldn't be arguing about her anymore...
Then she won't hear how pitiful and pathetic she is, even now, they still refuse to want her.
She actively wanted to be loved, and those people couldn't see her. Now that she was afraid and avoided, those people could use this as an excuse to stay far away from her.
Maybe she doesn't deserve to be loved, and no one will choose her firmly.
I want to die...
Only when you die can you be freed.
—
When the sharp knife cut through the skin, she couldn't feel the pain. She felt that she might really be dying, and even the pain disappeared.
"How about one by one?"
"One-one, are you in the toilet?"
"Dong dong dong—" Someone kept knocking on the door, and the loud noise made her unable to close her eyes.
"Yu Zhiyi! Are you in there? Answer me if you hear it."
She heard a very familiar voice, the man seemed to be in a hurry and kept calling her name.
Yu Zhiyi barely opened his eyes, "Brother..."
"Clang-dang-"
People outside broke in.
When Yi saw the little girl sitting on the ground with blood all over her hand, she panicked, "One by one, one by one!"
The adults who followed behind blocked the door. He directly carried the little girl back to the hospital bed and frantically rang the bell to call the doctor.
Fortunately, it was discovered in time, the wound was not deep, and there was no life-threatening.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Shi Yi couldn't care less about manners, stared at these unreliable adults, and asked:
"What just happened?"
"What did you tell her?!"
He just went out to eat and came back, and his little girl became like this? So many people stay here, can't see her alone
I can't believe what would have happened if I came back later, Shi Yi's mind is now full of chaos.
But these adults also shook their heads one after another, expressing that they did not know.
The aunt on the next bed said weakly, "I just saw that little girl standing at the door for a while, and then she went to the toilet."
All the adults were stunned.
Just now…
Aunt was startled, "Did you hear us discussing who will take care of her?"
No one dared to answer this.
They only thought that the child was hurt and was in a bad mood, and never thought that she had given up her life.
"Heh..." Shi Yi turned his back to the crowd and stopped talking.
It's that he shouldn't trust others. Many people think "impossible, not possible", and they won't start regretting it until the tragedy really happens.
—
When he knew that they had discussed who would take care of Yu Zhiyi after he was discharged from the hospital, Shi Yi had a conversation with his mother alone.
"Mom, you know what? I even wanted to call the police when I saw each one lying lifeless on the hospital bed..."
"But I didn't do that. I can't be sure - after losing my mother, I can't bear to lose my father, even if that man doesn't deserve to be a father!"
After expressing his attitude towards those two cruel parents, he sincerely stated his purpose, "Mom, I want to take them home."
Shi Yi's decision was beyond Ning Suya's expectations, but also seemed to be expected, "Xiao Yi, this time things are not as simple as usual..."
The Yu family's situation is very complicated, and it can't be solved by randomly coming to their house and staying for a while as before.
"Mom, I know that choosing a person entails a great responsibility, but if I give up her now because of fear, it will be my lifelong regret."
"You're only a teenager!" You're only a teenager, so you can talk about a lifetime.
"But I think that I have the right to make choices at every age, at least now I want to protect her, and this will last for a long time. If you always push what you want to do now to the future, Who can guarantee what will happen in the future?"
"But Xiaoyi, have you forgotten what the doctor said? She is probably suffering from depression now." That terrible disease has destroyed so many lives.
However, Shi Yi still insisted and asked fearlessly, "Mom, please promise, let me take them home one by one."
Ning Suya covered her mouth and turned her face away to prevent her son from seeing her tears.
She took a breath and said solemnly, "Go and tell the Yu family. As long as they agree, we'll take them home one by one."
That child is also the daughter she has grown up with since childhood.
Shi Yi nodded, "Thank you mom."
He hardly worried about the Yu family. Those people were probably eager for someone to take over the trouble in their eyes.
But Shi Yi still found Yu Kai and Ruan Qing to talk to each other, and didn't say much after expressing his decision, but in the end he left the same sentence for both of them: "You have thousands of reasons for not paying attention to her, She has only one thought of loving you."
When a child is hurt by her parents, she will not stop loving her parents, but will continue to doubt herself, and even give up herself in the end.
The two were particularly ashamed after hearing it. They had lived for decades, but they were not as thorough as a teenage child.
The person who was supposed to be the closest person to her daughter turned into a nightmare that she feared.
Shi Yi returned to the hospital bed and guarded Yu Zhiyi from night to dawn.
"The Buddha said that if you help others and seek rewards, you will tarnish your good thoughts. I don't have any kind thoughts that are selfless, but with you, I want to be a good person."
A kind person who is willing to give without expecting anything in return.
Standing behind the curtain, Ning Suya felt very sad when she heard this sentence.
She still remembered the words Shi Yi told her before she came back, "a sensitive child will question everyone's love once being abandoned", and now it is really reflected in Yu Zhiyi.
That little girl probably thinks that the whole world doesn't love her anymore.
