Chapter 073.
Zhen Zhen gets up from the hospital bedside, ready to go buy grapes.
Liu Zhi wanted to go out to buy them, but was stopped by Zhen Zhen, who called out to him, “You stay here and spend more time with Wen.”
He is Wen’s husband, and in this situation, no one’s company is as useful as his.
Liu Zhi responded, escorted Zhen Zhen out of the hospital room, and went back to the bedside to sit down.
He asked Shizuku softly, “How are you feeling now? What else do you want?”
Shizuku closed her eyes and didn’t move.
A few moments to lightly move lips, voice slightly choked softly said: “or …… we divorce it ……”.
What divorce, Liu Zhi face suddenly stunned, “What nonsense?”
A Wen still closed his eyes, because the body is weak, the voice is not much strength, “I did not say nonsense, I think of your mother all these years to say those words to do those things, the heart is like a thousand pounds of stone like pressure, but also like a thousand ropes tied, feel like to gasp for air. Under such pressure, I don’t know how to live with you in the future, and I can’t see any happiness or goodness at all.”
It felt like the future was completely dark, with no light at all.
Liu Zhi looked at her pale face, took a deep breath and lowered his head.
A few moments later, he raised his head and said, “Wen, marriage is not a child’s play, we even have three children, I will not divorce you. Don’t think about it so much, I’ve thought it over, I won’t let my mother see you again.”
“How can that be?” Shizuku still only moved her lips lightly, her voice shallow, “Can you not let her in when she comes over? Can you not go back to see her? She’s your mother, the one who gave birth to you and raised you, it’s not as easy as it sounds.”
After this out-of-control fuss, Liu Zhi seemed to have made up his mind.
Without much hesitation, he looked at Wen and said, “I’ll try my best to keep her from coming over, there’s really no way for her to come over on her own, her hometown is relatively close to our military region, so it’s convenient for her to come over. But if she comes over, you should go back to your mother’s home and avoid her, don’t meet her and don’t talk to her. If I go back to visit my family, I’ll go back by myself, and you don’t go back with me.”
Hearing these words, Wen slowly opened her eyes and turned her head to look at Liu Zhi.
She was silent for a while and spoke in a raspy voice, “Then isn’t she going even more crazy?”
Not to give her grandchildren she is already as crazy as can not accept, and then again as she does not exist, do not see her not see her, not the slightest respect and face to give her words, with her kind of character, not to make a mess of the sky and the earth will be strange.
This is already no way out, he can only choose so.
Liu Zhi took a deep breath and said: “No matter what happens I’ll carry it, and you’ll leave it all alone, I don’t say you don’t ask, as long as you can’t see or hear it. I’m also her own son, she is my own mother, she can not force me to die.”
Shizuku’s heart was suddenly hard again and her eyes were wet.
She sniffled a little and closed her eyes, rasping her voice and said, “Let’s talk about it.”
Liu Zhi hmmm, his voice soft, “Don’t think about it first, you can’t toss and turn anymore, you have to finish your month properly.”
A knock sounded on the door outside the hospital room and Jen opened the door and came in, carrying a bunch of grapes in her hand.
She looked over at Wen and Liu Zhi and smiled, “The grapes are big and sweet today.”
Liu Zhi got up and picked up the grapes and went to wash them.
Jen went to the side of the hospital bed and helped Shizuku sit up against the pillows.
She also sat down in front of the hospital bed and asked Shizuku, “How are you feeling now?”
After so many days of labor, Shizuku’s face had a rare look of relaxation and was no longer all gloom and doom.
She curled her mouth and nodded at Zhen Zhen, “Feeling better.”
Ryuushi washes the grapes and brings them over.
He peeled the skin off the grapes and brought them to Shizuku’s mouth for her to eat.
Without mentioning anything else, Jen smiles beside her and asks, “Is it sweet?”
Shizuku smiles and nods, “Very sweet.”
Shizuku ate two grapes.
Since she was still weak, Jen and Ryuushi didn’t talk to her much.
After eating the grapes to ease her mind, Willow Chee helped Vivian to lie down and let her sleep for a while while she hung on to the hangnail.
With Liu Zhi with her, Zhen Zhen didn’t stay much longer.
She told Shizuku to get some rest and got up herself to go home first.
After what happened today, there was still fear in her heart.
Opening the door and leaving the hospital room, Zhen Zhen turned around and said to Liu Zhi, “You keep an eye on her.”
Liu Zhi naturally understands and responds, “Don’t worry, I will.”
After sending Zhen Zhen back, Liu Zhi bent down and sat down by the hospital bed.
He inhaled deeply and lowered his head to bury his face into his palm.
***
The hutong is covered with a tragic red sunset.
Zhen Zhen pushes open the gate to the yard and enters the yard draped in the setting sun.
Dabai greeted her with a wagging tail next to her, and she reached out to pet Dabai’s doggy head.
Zhong Minfen in the house stretched his head to look outside, saw Zhen Zhen back, busy welcome out and asked: “In the end what happened?”
She came back twice in the afternoon in a panic, and both times she was so anxious that she didn’t say anything before running out again.
She was at home with two children, couldn’t get away, and didn’t get out to ask.
Now Jen naturally had the time.
She went inside to pour water and drank most of it before telling Zhong Minfen, “I went to look for Wen and found that she wasn’t at home, nor was her newborn child, and the nanny, Xiao Jiang, didn’t know where she had gone, so I panicked. Xiao Jiang and I went out and searched around a lot, and found Ah Wen by the river, she was holding the baby and wanted to throw herself into the river.”
Hearing this, Zhong Minfen’s eyes widened in shock.
She grabbed Zhen Zhen’s arm and her tone was urgent, “How is it? Is it alright now?”
Zhen Zhen breathed slowly, “I found her early and pulled her back, but she was tossed around so much, can she be fine? Now lying in the hospital hanging water, the month sitting like this, I do not know whether the future will fall into the root of the disease.”
Zhong Minfen felt a chill in her heart when she thought about it.
She wrinkled her face, her tone anxious, “How can she be so thoughtless!”
Zhen Zhen sighed, “Because of the mess, she had a stressful time giving birth to this child, and when she gave birth, she had a difficult labor and nearly lost her life. Her body is so weak, and she holds everything in her heart, so how can her mood be any better? Moreover, a woman’s mind is already very sensitive after giving birth, and with all the bad things that happened, who can stand it?”
Zhong Minfen was a bit indignant, “If anything really happens to Wen, the Liu family will never have peace of mind.”
Zhen Zhen: “If something really happens, her old lady may not feel guilty, maybe ……”
The following words of speculation about the viciousness of the human heart did not come out.
Zhong Minfen and Zhen Zhen were talking when Shui Huaiming came back.
They haven’t gone to get dinner yet, and when she saw that Mr. Huai Ming was back, Zhen Zhen was busy getting her lunch box and preparing to go to the cafeteria to get dinner.
Seeing that Zhen Zhen didn’t look right, she reached out to take the lunch box and the meal ticket and asked her, “What happened?”
Since Liu Zhi had left with his shift, he knew that something must have happened to Wen, but didn’t know exactly what.
Wanting to be relieved, Zhen Zhen went to the cafeteria with Squire Huai Ming to get her meal.
On the way, Zhen Zhen told Shui Huaiming about what happened this afternoon.
After listening, Mr. Huai Ming said, “In her current situation, the problems in her heart should be more serious than her physical problems. She needs to let out all her emotions, and she also needs more care and attention, and someone to enlighten her.”
Jen nodded, “Take your time.”
***
Shizuku didn’t stay in the hospital much longer, and after hanging up the hangnail Ryuushi brought her back.
Tossed half a day, to the home to eat something, still bed rest.
Fear that she can not think again to do something extreme, Liu Zhi natural moments are accompanied by her side.
He will not say some flowery language, just keep in front of her to feed her, give her water, always pay attention to her needs.
After all, Liu Zhi has a serious position in the body, can not always keep at home.
The next morning before going to work, he said privately to the nanny Jiang: “I’m not at home, trouble you pay more attention, be sure not to let her alone, take good care of me to give you more money.”
Xiao Jiang was also afraid in her heart, and nodded heavily, “I’ll keep an eye on her.”
After saying goodbye to Xiao Jiang, his heart was a little bit more solid, Liu Zhi didn’t bother Wen and the children who were still awake, and organized his clothes to go out.
When he left the yard, he ran into Mr. Huai Ming, and the two of them went to the flat together.
Liu Zhi home happened these things is not a secret, the service Huai Ming asked him with concern: “Are you okay?”
Liu Zhi said in a relaxed tone: “I’m not good, but also have to be good, if I do not carry on, this family will be completely finished.”
The two men walked forward side by side at the same pace.
Serving Huai Ming: “What are you going to do?”
Liu Zhi: “There’s nothing good to do, my mother is afraid that she can’t accept this, the conflict can’t be resolved, so I can only prevent Wen and her from seeing each other again. As for my mother’s side, I’ll just take it on myself, who asked me to be born to her.”
Servant Huai Ming: “It’s good that you’ve thought about it, it’s true that you can’t have it both ways.”
Liu Zhi let out a long sigh, “Now you know how much I envy you.”
***
Zhen Zhen didn’t do much else after breakfast, still holding Dantong to go next door to accompany Ah Wen.
She also discusses with her nanny, Xiao Jiang, and tells Xiao Jiang to go out and do something else while she’s here.
If she had something to do and wasn’t here, she would let Chiang watch Shizuku in the house.
Zhen Zhen was over here talking with Ah Wen and reading newspapers and magazines to her.
She picked out the funny things in the newspapers and magazines to make Shizuku laugh with her.
When Shizuku’s defenses were loosened, she would talk to her about the things that were knotting up in her heart, so that she could pour out her frustrations over and over again, releasing the stress and negative emotions in her heart.
When Wen’s condition looked better, Zhen Zhen notified Li Shuang.
At the end of the week, Li Shuang and He Shuo brought their three children over, and as soon as they entered the courtyard, Dan Sui shouted “Mom, Dad, Grandma,” and then ran up and jumped into Shui Huaiming’s arms, asking him to pick her up.
With so many people here, the courtyard was suddenly very lively.
Servant Huai Ming held Dan Sui and together with Zhen Zhen greeted Li Shuang He Shuo and asked them to come in and sit in the house first.
Shi Huai Ming carried Dan Sui into the house and asked her, “Do you miss your mom, dad and grandma?”
Dan Sui’s milky voice said, “I miss them.”
Shui Huaiming laughed, and Zhen Zhen and Zhong Minfen also laughed at the sweetness.
Then He Ziyan suddenly said in a milky voice, “I don’t think she misses them at all.”
Oh? Shi Huai Ming looked at He Zi Yan and asked, “Why is that?”
He Ziyan: “She doesn’t even want to go home.”
The kids were having fun talking, and the adults naturally laughed at them.
After this enthusiasm, Li Shuang and He Shuo naturally brought up the main issue, “Let’s go, let’s go see Ah Wen.”
When this matter was brought up, they did not talk here anymore. Serving Huai Ming, Zhen Zhen and Zhong Min Fen, followed by Li Shuang and He Shuo, holding the child and leading the child, went next door in a lively manner.
To the next door to see Liu Zhi and Ah Wen, another burst of pleasantries.
After the pleasantries, the service Huai Ming, Liu Zhi and He Shuo exited the room to leave the space for the lesbians.
He Ziran was thinking of Cheng Chen in her heart and sought He Shuo’s opinion, “Dad, I’m going to go next door to find Cheng Chen to play, okay?”
He Shuo naturally remembered Cheng Chen, who was about the same age as He Ziran.
There was nothing to be uneasy about, He Shuo skimmed his head and agreed, “Go ahead, but don’t run far.”
“Got it.” He Ziran answered and ran off.
He ZiYan consistently loves to pester He ZiRan, running after him, shouting, “Brother I’ll go too.”
Dan Sui saw that Doudou wasn’t at home, naturally he also wanted to follow along, so the three children went next door together.

Room.
Li Shuang was holding the child in his arms and teasing, making the child giggle.
Milk doll’s laughter is the most scratching heart, other people also followed along with the laughter.
After teasing the baby for a while, Li Shuang looked at Wen and said, “You didn’t get a son this time, so you still need to give birth?”
She didn’t know what Ah Wen had gone through during and after the birth, so she didn’t have too many qualms about asking.
Ah Wen seemed to be a bit more open now that she was faced with this question.
She looked at Li Shuang and gently shook her head, “No more births, how can I carry so many.”
Li Shuang said, “Look at you now, giving birth to a child hurts so much energy, don’t give birth.”
Ah Wen nodded, “Uh-huh.”
The atmosphere in the room was quite good, so no one brought up those bad things from before.
When it was almost noon, Ah Wen took the initiative, “Don’t even go, call sister-in-law Chen and Cheng Chen over as well, have Liu Zhi go to the cafeteria to fetch some food and come back, let’s eat at my house today, liven things up a bit.”
She wanted to keep people, so Zhen Zhen naturally didn’t leave.
She pulled Zhong Minfen and Li Shuang to stay with her to make Shizuku happy.
Ah Wen was indeed much happier and told Jiang to call Liu Zhi in, then told Liu Zhi to go to the cafeteria to get his food.
He Shuo and Squire Huai Ming went with him to the cafeteria to get their meals, and when they came back, they stopped by next door to call up Sister Chen, and Cheng Chen, He Ziran and He Ziyan, and Dan Sui naturally followed along.
When they came back to eat, Ah Wen also got up and went to the table to eat with them.
The crowd was already lively, and with the little kids messing around, the atmosphere was naturally cheerful.
Shizuku smiled a lot today, her eyes bright and her brow always arched.
Dan Sui this age can not be idle, crowded in the service Huai Ming arms to eat a meal, and rub down to rub down to the side of the Wen, standing next to the Wen asked her: “Auntie, DouDou sister …… when will she come back ah?”
The first time I saw her was when she was in the hospital, and she said, “I don’t know what to do, but I don’t know what to do.
At the very least, it would have to wait until she finished her monthly cycle, and if it went by a little longer, it would be until the start of the school year.
Danho puffed out her little cheeks, “Oh.”
After saying that, she ran off and went next to He Shuo again, directly rubbing into his arms and sitting.
Li Shuang sat next to He Shuo and turned his head to look at Dan Sui and asked, “So Spike, are you going to go with us later, or are you going to stay at home?”
With no one at home to play with, Dan Sui immediately replied, “I still have to go to my godmother’s house.”
He Shuo gave Dan Sui some food to eat, “Godfather will buy you some more good food.”
Serving Huai Ming looked at He Shuo from across the room, “You got a daughter for nothing?”
He Shuo laughed, “What? Are you jealous of me?”
Shi Huai Ming sneered, “My own daughter, I’m jealous of you?”
As she watched Shi Huai Ming and He Shuo choke on each other, Mrs. Chen smiled and said, “It’s still the daughter that’s pleasing to the eye.”
As soon as she said this, Cheng Chen asked from the side, “I’m not likeable?”
Chen’s sister-in-law froze for a moment and laughed again, “You’re still jealous.”
Everyone laughed along with her.
There was a lot of joking and laughing at the table, and all the food on the table was eaten cleanly.
Wen couldn’t go out, so she went back to her room to rest after dinner.
The lesbians accompanied Ah Wen to talk together.
After talking for a while, Li Shuang suddenly patted Zhen Zhen, “Accompany me to buy something.”
Li Shuang was not familiar with the place, Zhen Zhen got up and led her to the store.
And Li Shuang is going to buy things is false, have something to say is true.
The atmosphere in the house was so good, everyone was happy, there were some things she couldn’t ask.
Together with Zhen Zhen, they went out of the hutong.
Li Shuang directly asked her: ”Before Wen gave birth, she was not quite well nourished and energetic, why is she not working again now? It looks like she’s hurt her vitality a lot, did something happen again?”
Since Li Shuang asked this, Zhen Zhen also told her everything that happened before.
Li Shuang kept frowning as she listened, her brows getting deeper and deeper into mountain ranges.
When Zhen Zhen finished, she wrinkled her brows and said, “Her mother-in-law is actually so vicious?”
Zhen Zhen walked forward and said, “If it wasn’t for these things happening, Ah Wen wasn’t even going to let us know, she’s been hiding it from us and keeping it to herself. Now that she feels better and is happy today, let’s not mention it for now.”
Li Shuang understands and nods forward.
***
To rush home, Li Shuang and He Shuo didn’t stay here any longer.
After eating lunch and playing a little bit, the two of them were about to take the child home.
Ah Wen can’t see the wind in her month, He Shuo and Li Shuang greeted her in the house and didn’t let her send her out.
Zhen Zhen served Huai Ming Liu Zhi and they sent them to the entrance of the hutong.
He Shuo held Dan Sui in his arms and deliberately looked at Shui Huai Ming and said, “I’ll take my goddaughter ah.”
Dan Sui wanted to play with He Zi Yan, so she had to go along anyways.
Standing at the entrance of the alleyway and exchanging a few more pleasantries, Li Shuang and He Shuo took the three children and left.
Zhen Zhen served Huai Ming a few people to see them walk away and turned around to come back together.
Zhen Zhen, Zhong Minfen and Chen’s sister-in-law had nothing important to do, so they talked together and accompanied Ah Wen until the evening.
In the evening home for dinner, when the sky darkens pull the light on, the window panes light up one by one.
***
Because there was always someone around to keep her company, someone to enlighten and amuse, and Liu Zhi’s care and concern was also in place, so there were no more major emotional ups and downs for Shizuku in the next few days.
Liu Zhi was worried about her health and let her sit for half a month more.
It was half a month after Shizuku’s birth, and it was time for school to start.
Doudou and Mimi had returned from their grandmother’s house the day before, and the next day Danshui returned from her godparents’ house.
The little sisters met and hugged each other, laughing and jumping around.
When the school year started Dan Sui and DouDou went to school and life in the hutongs didn’t change much.
Worried that it would be too much for Wen to bring up a child at home by herself, and because Xiao Jiang is more reliable, Liu Zhi didn’t let Xiao Jiang go, but kept her at home to continue to work as a nanny, claiming that she was the family’s cousin who came to help out.
In these days, hiring a nanny is not an unusual thing to do.
Half of the year has passed, the service Huai Ming Zhen Zhen and Zhong Minfen, this hutong also have the feelings of home.
The vegetables in the yard grow from crop to crop, and the children grow up a little bit in the alternation of time.
Ever since Wen made a big fuss after giving birth, Granny Feng has not come back to the military compound.
Without Feng’s help, there was no conflict between Wen and Liu Zhi, and their lives were peaceful and beautiful.
People like them don’t have to worry about food, drink or clothing, and they live a relatively good life.
Knowing that Feng’s side will not stop, but Liu Zhi cut off the connection between her and Wen, all the good and bad are Liu Zhi himself to face, so Wen also slowly from the stress and anxiety in the middle of the body.
As for the matter of divorce, naturally, it has not been mentioned again.
Winter and spring.
When Zhong Minfen was shopping for vegetable seeds, she really couldn’t hold back and bought three yellow-furred chicks back.
She asked Squire Huaeming to build a chicken nest in the yard and put up a fence, and put the chicks in the fence to raise them.
Zhong Minfen raised chickens to lay eggs, of course.
And Dan Sui, along with Dou Dou Mi Mi, recognized the chicks as pets.
There were three chicks, two females and one male, and Danshui, Doudou and Mimi, each recognized one.
Danshui’s chick was called Sui Bao, Doudou’s chick was called Dou Bao, and Mimi’s chick was naturally called Mi Bao.
Mimi’s was a big colorful rooster.
After feeding it for a few months, it grew up to be a very beautiful rooster with bright feathers and a majestic appearance.
Then Zhong Minfen caught the proud and beautiful colorful big Mi Bao, pressed it to the ground, plucked a handful of beautiful chicken feathers on it, and made a beautiful chicken feather shuttlecock for the three little girls.
And in the three little chickens grow into a big chicken, next to the dog kennel in the big white, also do not know from which day onwards, the nature of the completely calm down, no longer have the old days half a little bit of the skin, began to show the old state.
In the past, it loved to jump and play, but now it is quieter and loves to watch the children play.
Zhen Zhen will still touch its dog head.
He still wags his big white tail like a broomstick at Jenny.
One evening in July, the big white tail wagged the mailman.
The postman sent a letter from the countryside, the content of the letter, in addition to some trivial matters at home, and the service Danling university things. Servant Danling wanted to go to the university here in Xicheng, but didn’t get in, so she plans to go for another year.
Shui Huaoming and Zhen Zhen wrote a long letter and sent it back, encouraging Shui Danling not to be discouraged.
Another year later.
Shi Danling wrote again at about the same time.
This time she excitedly told Shui Huaiming, Zhen Zhen and Zhong Minfen that she had passed the exam!
***
The weather was cloudy for half a day, and bean-sized raindrops fell in the late afternoon.
Dan Sui, Dantong and Xingyu were napping in the house, while Zhen Zhen and Zhong Minfen were sewing a quilt together on the cooler outside.
The quilt lining and top were newly purchased and washed, and the sun-exposed cotton quilt core smelled of sunshine.
Zhong Minfen smiled and said to Zhen Zhen: “Where do you need such a thick quilt on such a hot day?”
Zhen Zhen also smiled and said: “The room to use things to give her a good deal, just short of the winter quilt, do not make it out of my heart and hands are itchy, do a good job of putting up is, cover the time to take out the sun on the line.”
Zhong Minfen: “I see that Danling is coming over, you are more excited than I am.”
Zhen Zhen smiled and said, “Dan Ling and I are so close, we’ve slept together for five years, and of course I’m excited that she’s coming over to go to college. I’ve never even been to school, so I’ll let her take me to college later, and I’ll go and get some insight.”
The quilt was sewn up, Zhen Zhen folded the quilt up and carried it upstairs to the room she had packed out for Shi Danling.
In fact, Shui Danling will go to school and live in the school, but will not live here for a long time, but Zhen Zhen still cleaned up the room for her.
The quilt was put away and the door closed, Zhen Zhen’s heart is also solid.
There is nothing missing in this room, so Shidan Ling can come over and live here directly.
After Zhen Zhen sewed the quilt, the rain fell for another half day.
When the rain stopped in the evening, Shui Huaiming came back from work.
After washing their hands, the family sat down to eat.
The family sat down to eat. Suddenly, Mr. Huai Ming said to Zhen Zhen, “I have some good news for you.”
Before Zhen Zhen could say anything, Dan Sui asked, “Dad, what’s the good news?”
Servant Huai Ming then looked at Dan Sui again and said, “Your godmother and godfather are moving here.”
“What?!”
Hearing this, Zhen Zhen and Dan Sui’s expressions were completely synchronized.
Surprise filled their eyes, spilling out from the corners of their eyes, and their entire faces were colored and lit up.
Servant Huai Ming looked at Zhen Zhen again and said, “The transfer order has already come down, so we should be moving over soon.”
Dan Sui was very excited, pinching the spoon brush and standing up, improvising a few twists around the table, even shaking her little head with her braided hair together.
