Chapter 588: Impossible to Take the Wrong One
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Seeing that the atmosphere in the ward was a little stiff, Ji Yuanyuan quickly went forward and took out the small table beside her, “Dad, Mom, you guys eat first. If there’s anything, well talk after eating.”
Ji Yuanyuan placed the lunch box on the small table and looked at Li Miao and Gong Wenbai, “Aunt, Uncle, have you eaten?”
Li Miao shook her head, “No, we don’t have the time to eat.”
Ji Yuanyuan said, “That’s good. I haven’t eaten yet. I’ll treat you and Uncle to a meal.”
Li Miao looked at Ji Yuanyuan and hesitated for a moment before agreeing, “Sure, but how can I let you treat us? Aunt and your uncle will treat you.”
Ji Yuanyuan led them out and said with a smile, “I just got my scholarship, so I’ll treat you guys.”
Li Xu looked at Zhang Kun and didn’t say anything.
She silently opened the lunch box and scooped rice for Zhang Kun.
After leaving the hospital, Gong Wenbai drove and Ji Yuanyuan pointed the way. Soon, they arrived at the restaurant.
They asked for a private room. After the three of them ordered the dishes, they started talking about the hospital.
“Your dad said that he doesn’t want to have surgery. What’s your Second Brother’s attitude?” Li Miao asked tentatively.
“He tried to reason with Dad, but when he realized that Dad wouldn’t listen to him at all, he left angrily. He was quite willing to donate his liver to Dad without any hesitation.” Ji Yuanyuan explained.
When Li Miao heard this, she sighed. “Actually, he’s very filial.”
Ji Yuanyuan hesitated for a moment before saying with a smile, “Yes, Second Brother has been a troublemaker since he was young. He wasn’t good-looking and wasn’t good at his studies. At that time, Yang Jingyi always joked with me, saying that Second Brother might not be my biological son, but adopted.”
As she spoke, she looked at Li Miao’s expression vaguely.
Li Miao smiled helplessly, “However, the older he is, the more handsome he is. This is different from your Second Uncle. Your Second Uncle has been ugly since he was young.”
Ji Yuanyuan asked in a joking tone, “Aunty, were you there when my mom gave birth to Second Brother? Could it be that she take the wrong person?”
Li Miao seemed to have thought of something, and the smile on her face gradually disappeared.
“How could that be? Your Second Brother wasn’t born in the hospital. How could there be a chance of a mistake? At that time, your mother suffered greatly. Although I was only nine years old at that time, I remember it clearly.” “What do you mean? What did my mother suffer?” Ji Yuanyuan asked curiously.
Li Miao raised her head and looked at Ji Yuanyuan, “When you were young, your family didn’t tell you.” When your mother gave birth to your Second Brother, she lost a lot of blood and almost lost her life. She was in a coma for many days before she was saved.”
“How did this happen?” Ji Yuanyuan muttered,
“At that time, your mother was suffering in Ji Jiawan. Ji Jianguo was working outside, and your mother was pregnant. She had to take care of your brother at home. Your big brother is only two years old and doesn’t know anything. She said that she accidentally fell when she was bathing your brother at home. Ji Jianguo’s mother was worried about money, so she didn’t take your mother to the hospital. Instead, she found a midwife in the village to deliver your mother.” Li Miao directly called Ji Jianguo’s name without any scruples.
Gong Wenbai thought that Ji Jianguo was Ji Yuanyuan’s biological father after all. It was not good for Li Miao to say this.
He reached out and poked Li Miao’s arm, hinting at her to be careful.
Ji Yuanyuan lowered her head and frowned slightly.
Second Brother was born in 1987. At that time, although most people went to the hospital to give birth, a small number of rural women chose to give birth at home to save money.
She had heard of it before, so it was not something strange.
“Your mother was in pain for a long time. The child was born, but the bleeding couldn’t be stopped. Ji Jianguo wasn’t at home. Her mother was afraid something would happen and couldn’t bear to spend money. She actually got someone to send your mother and child to your grandparents’ house overnight.”
“That night, the whole family was in chaos. After sending your mother to the hospital, the doctor was not sure if she could be saved. Your grandparents borrowed money everywhere, but at that time, every household was poor and could not lend money at all. Later, Ji Jianguo also came back and finally did something. He scraped together the money to pay for your mother’s hospitalization fees. After being in a coma for a few days in the hospital, she was finally saved.”
At this point, Li Miao said helplessly, “Thinking back carefully, your biological father has only done this one thing. So, when your mother divorced him, your grandparents still persuaded your mother.”
Speaking of the past, Li Miao’s tone was very sad.
“I never knew there was such a thing.” Ji Yuanyuan whispered.
She did not expect her mother to suffer like this when she gave birth to Second Brother.
“It’s not a good thing that your grandmother doesn’t want us to talk about this. Your mother wouldn’t mention it in front of you. Don’t you know her? Whatever she had sacrificed, she would never publicize it publicly.” Li Miao said in a low voice.
“What happened after that? What happened after that?” Ji Yuanyuan asked.
“What else could it be? After your mother was discharged from the hospital, she went back to your grandparents’ house to recuperate. Your biological grandmother hasn’t even shown her face. From the beginning to the end, your Second Brother has never been to the hospital. We definitely couldn’t have taken the wrong person.” Li Miao seemed to feel the atmosphere was too solemn and said jokingly.
“I see.” Ji Yuanyuan said thoughtfully.
“It’s probably because your mother has spent too much effort raising your second brother since he was young, so God gave him a chance to repay your mother.” Li Miao thought for a moment and said with a smile.
Saving Zhang Kun was also protecting Li Xu’s happiness. Wasn’t it indirectly repaying Li Xu?!
As soon as she finished speaking, the waiter came over to serve the dishes.
Ji Yuanyuan no longer asked about the past.
No matter what the truth was, she would wait until her father finished his surgery.
The most important thing now was to convince his father to have the surgery.
Li Lei was very efficient. At around 3 pm the next day, he came over with more than ten members of the Zhang family and the Li family.
The parents, younger brother, younger sister, sister-in-law, and brother-in-law of both parties had come, filling the small ward.
When Wang Yuechu and Zhang Dali saw their son lying on the hospital bed, their hearts ached so much that tears welled up in their eyes.
They staggered forward and held Zhang Kun’s hand.
Li Xu quickly brought a stool over so that the two of them could sit down.
Ji Yuanyuan also quickly moved stools for Liu Guihua and Li Zhiming.
After some small talk, Li Xu asked about the children.
“You’re all here. What about the children?”
“Sister-in-law, don’t worry. We don’t have to do anything about Wenwen as she lived in a dormitory in high school. Our two kids were sent to my brother’s house.” Hao Meiting said.
“Li Xiang, Li Nian, and Li Jie have all been sent back to their grandmother’s house. You don’t have to worry.” Qin Xiaomin said with a smile..
