Chapter 503 Not a biological child
Old Mrs. Li doesn't feel sorry for her daughter, but that is her own child, and Li Dahai is really worried.
"Mom, the child is so big now, I can't watch her die. Please give me some money and I will take the child to the county town for medical treatment. I promise to make good money in the future and be filial to you." Li Dahai was in deep sorrow and hated himself for being incompetent and unable to take good care of the child.
"What if I die? I can just give birth to another one. You think this money came from the wind? You eat and drink my food, and you still think of ways to get money from me. I owe you all. You are all ungrateful wolves, bah!"
Old Mrs. Li stared at Li Dahai fiercely, as if she was looking at an enemy, and uttered a series of vicious words.
"Dad, if I don't see a doctor, Xiaoxiao will really die. Can you consider this money as a loan from me? I will definitely pay it back later." Knowing that it was useless to beg Old Lady Li, Li Dahai turned to kowtow to Old Man Li a few more times.
His head hit the hard ground with a bang. Old man Li, with a pipe in his mouth, looked at Li Dahai's actions with a slightly moved expression.
The second son was an honest man who did a lot of housework. Sun was also a hard-working woman. Although she didn't like the skinny girl, she was the second son's blood after all.
Finally, Old Man Li sighed and narrowed his eyes slightly: "Dahai, our family wants to support your eldest brother's education. It's not that your mother and I are cruel, but our family is really not rich.
But Xiaoxiao is my granddaughter after all, and I can't just watch her die. I'll take out 500 coins for Dahai."
Old Mrs. Li, who was sitting on the kang, did not dare to refuse. She looked at Li Dahai with a look that was as if it was poisoned. It would be worse to take her life than to take her money.
"She is not destined to be a lady, but she has lady's disease. I don't know why she is so delicate. I am an old woman who lives frugally, but I spend all my money on her little bitch. She has no conscience!"
Old Mrs. Li cursed and swore, wishing she could go up and slap Li Dahai twice. She reluctantly counted out five hundred copper coins from her purse.
He threw it to the ground as if to vent his anger, and threw it far away: "Just this once, if she gets sick again, even if the king of heaven comes, I will have no money."
"Thank you, Mom and Dad." Li Dahai said in a heavy tone. He kowtowed to them again before picking up a string of copper coins from the ground.
Going to the main house to ask for money took a lot of time. When Li Dahai came back, Li Xiaoxiao was still unconscious and hot all over.
Li Dahai and Sun hurriedly picked up their daughter. At that time, there were no ox carts, so they could only walk to the county town.
So the two of them took turns carrying their daughter all the way to the county town. Sun cried as they walked. Li Xiaoxiao's condition was so serious that she almost stopped breathing.
As a result, what Sun was most worried about happened. Just as they were about to reach the county town, the child in her arms stopped breathing.
"Xiaoxiao, don't scare your mother. Wake up quickly. We have money and we can take you to see a doctor. You will get better soon." Sun had burst into tears without her knowing. She simply couldn't believe it.
Why did this happen? This was the child she had given birth to with so much effort. Why couldn't she just wait a little longer and find a doctor in the county town?
She shook the child in her arms desperately, but there was still no movement.
It is said that men don't shed tears easily, only because they are not deeply sad. Li Dahai also felt sorry for the child. Tears welled up in the corners of his eyes. Seeing Sun's painful look, he thought it was all because of his own uselessness, otherwise the child would not have died.
Sun didn't want to believe this was true. She always felt like she was dreaming. She hugged her child and cried for a long time, until she could no longer cry. Li Dahai silently accompanied her by her side.
It was not until the evening that Li Dahai suggested burying the child. It would be unlucky to take the child home, and his mother would definitely not let him take him home given her temper.
For such a young child, since there was no adult around, we had to bury him somewhere random.
Sun's eyes had already been shredded from crying, and she knew it very well. Even though she was reluctant, she had to bury her daughter with tears in her eyes.
After taking one last look at the place where the child was buried, Sun and Li Dahai reluctantly went back. Perhaps God took pity on them, for not long after they left, they seemed to hear the cry of a child.
At first, Sun thought she was hallucinating and that she must have missed her child too much. But strangely, Li Dahai also heard it.
The two looked at each other to make sure they had heard correctly, and then followed the sound to a bush on the side of the road. There was a moon in the sky, and sparse moonlight shone down, allowing them to vaguely see things.
When the two of them arrived at the source of the sound, they were surprised to find that there was a child there, wrapped in swaddling clothes and crying loudly.
Sun hurriedly picked up the child. She couldn't see the child's appearance clearly, but from the clothes she could tell that he was from a wealthy family. The clothes were made of soft and smooth material, and he should be slightly smaller than her daughter.
I looked around and found no one. I guessed that the child might have been abandoned by someone. It was late at night and it was lucky that they passed by. If a wild beast came, the child would probably be dead.
No one knew how long such a young child had been lying here. The moment she was picked up, she stopped crying immediately and looked into Sun's eyes with her big watery eyes.
Li Dahai looked at Sun's happy expression and suddenly had an idea in his mind. It would be better to take the child home and raise him as his own child, so that Sun would not be so sad.
No one in the family likes Xiaoxiao. Xiaoxiao stays in the house all day and has never met them. It is estimated that they will not notice her if she is brought back home.
He tentatively proposed the idea to Sun, but to his surprise, she agreed without even a second thought. He thought that God must have taken pity on her and sent this child specifically for him.
Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that she met this child right after she lost her child.
So without the knowledge of the Li family, Li Dahai replaced his daughter, and so many years passed and no one knew about it.
Sun was a kind-hearted person. Even though they were not her biological children, she treated every child the same. So even someone as smart as Li Xiaoxiao never doubted that she was not Sun and Li Dahai's child.
After hearing this, the old lady took a while to come back to her senses, with tears rolling down her eyes. She knew that her daughter's life had not been comfortable before, but she didn't expect it to be so difficult.
Because of lack of money, a child's life was delayed. The Li family is really conscienceless and they deserve the retribution they are getting now.
"So, Xiaoxiao and you have no blood relationship." Although she felt heavy-hearted, the old lady was also happy.
