"How could it be difficult? Didn't the doctor say that there was no problem during the checkup? What should we do now, Jianshe?"
"Doctor, can we save both of them?"
"The condition of the mother is very dangerous. Make a decision quickly, or you won't be able to save either of them!"
..
Chu Qiao was awakened by these noisy voices. Her body was wet, as if she were floating in the vast ocean. She felt that her body was very heavy, and she kept falling, but she also felt that it was very light, like a feather, floating upward.
The doctor's cold and heartless voice, as well as the voices of her mother-in-law and husband, was clearly heard by Chu Qiao. She opened her mouth, wanting to tell the doctor that she wanted to live.
But after opening her mouth for a long time, she couldn't make a single sound.
She heard her mother-in-law's urging again. "Jianshe, Chu Qiao is already so old, and she's bleeding so much. She definitely won't be able to get pregnant in the future. Why don't you save the baby!"
Chu Qiao's mouth opened again, and the blood under her body flowed even more, but she still couldn't make a sound. She heard her husband, Gu Jianshe's voice again, and she perked up a little. Jianshe would definitely save her.
There were also the two children that she had painstakingly raised. Although they weren't her biological children, she had painstakingly raised them to adulthood. They definitely wouldn't just watch her die.
Moreover, for the sake of these two children, she had never given birth to her own children. She only became pregnant when she was forty-two years old. If it were not for the fact that she was too old, she would not have had a difficult birth.
"Dad, Aunt Chu likes children so much. She definitely doesn't want anything to happen to our younger sister," the voice of the eldest brother sounded.
"Eldest brother is right. Aunt Chu wanted her children so much. We can't let Aunt Chu be disappointed," The voice of the little b*stard, the second brother, sounded.
Chu Qiao's dark gray eyes suddenly lit up. She straightened her body and her eyes widened. Her face was pale, and her mouth was wide open. She looked as pitiful as a dying fish.
She could feel the sympathetic eyes of the nurse beside her. Chu Qiao could even guess what the nurse was thinking. It must be...
"Poor woman. She worked so hard to raise someone else's child. In the end, she still raised two ungrateful wolves!"
That's right, she raised two ingrates that were worse than animals. She should have figured it out a long time ago. Those two animals wouldn't even call her 'Mom', and they always called her Aunt Chu. How could they treat her sincerely?
Only when she was about to die did she realize the truth. Heh... she was too stupid!
Her death was not unjustified!
Chu Qiao did not have any hope for her husband who had been silent all this time. Up until now, he still hadn't expressed his stance. Wasn't he just trying to drag her to her death?
But she was still unwilling!
She had followed her father at home and her husband after she was married. What had she done wrong?
"Gu... Jianshe!"
Chu Qiao used all her strength and called out one last time. The faces of the Gu family members outside changed drastically. Gu Jianshe gritted his teeth and said loudly, "Qiao Qiao, I will take good care of our daughter, so don't worry!"
Her vision went dark, and Chu Qiao fell into the darkness. There were all kinds of chaotic voices in her ears, but then she heard a fiery voice.
"Nonsense, what's there to be conflicted about? Save the woman's life!"
"Uncle, this is my family's business!"
"Gu Jianshe, are you even human? That's your wife inside. She's giving birth to your child. You're an animal, you're a disgrace to the Gu family. Give it to me to sign. If you don't give it, I'll kick you to death!"
"Doctor, Sir Bao, it's signed!"
The man's temper was very fierce, and his voice was like gunpowder, but it made Chu Qiao's heart feel very warm. The corners of her mouth twitched, and she really wanted to say 'thank you', but she didn't have any strength left.
It was too late.
She was going to die.
But she wasn't willing to give up.
If she could live her life over again, she would absolutely NEVER give birth to another child!
If she did, may she never be born!
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Chu Qiao stared blankly at the furniture in the room until she saw the white enamel jar on the chest of drawers. There were red words on it: Shanghai's No.6 Hospital.
Only then did she come back to her senses and somewhat understood the current situation.
As expected, her life had really started anew.
But how many years was it now?
She hoped that she had not married that heartless beast, Gu Jianshe.
Chu Qiao suddenly stood up and walked towards the calendar. She remembered that her father, Chu Yuanzhi, had obsessive-compulsive disorder. Before going to bed, he had to tear off the page from that day. She only needed to look at the calendar to know what date it was.
July 10th, 1986.
Chu Qiao's heart relaxed. She had just turned 21 and had not married that bastard, Gu Jianshe. However, her family had already arranged for her to date Gu Jianshe. In her previous life, she had listened to her father and stepmother's arrangements in everything. After she got married, she also listened to her husband's family. If they didn't let her give birth, she wouldn't give birth. If they didn't let her go out to work, she would obediently stay at home and be a housewife.
Gu Jianshe didn't like how she dressed, so she always kept her face bare and wore gray clothes. In just a few years, she became a real yellow-faced old woman. After Gu Jianshe became rich, he would go out and indulge in debauchery. He even went around telling people that the yellow-faced old woman at home was more wooden than a log and couldn't help at all. She only knew to stretch out her hand to ask for money.
Her mother-in-law also often said that she couldn't do anything useful. She also said that if she didn't marry her son, a useless woman like her wouldn't be able to live a wealthy life.
Ha!
Chu Qiao laughed coldly and walked to the wardrobe. She tucked her bangs, and in the mirror, she saw a young girl with a curvaceous body. Her eyebrows were like distant mountains, her eyes were like autumn water, her nose and mouth were like pieces of carved jade. Her face was shaped like a beautiful goose egg, her black hair was like ink, and her skin was like snow. The place that should be big was big, but the place that should be small was small.
She was 165 centimeters tall, not considered short in the south, but her feet were only 35 centimeters, and she had a tiny waist. However, she wore a 34D cup and had the especially popular peach buttocks of later generations. She would realize a long time later that she was actually very beautiful.
However, that b*stard Gu Jianshe deliberately belittled her, saying that she had a vulgar appearance and that she was not attractive. Only he did not dislike her. After hearing it so much, she really thought that she was disgusting, and her self-esteem had gotten lower and lower. She did not dare to go out and see others anymore. She was at ease staying at home, raising his child, and she was an old woman who did not complain. She even felt grateful to that b*stard and felt that Gu Jianshe did not dislike her. He was really kind-hearted.
What the f*ck!
She was really stupid. She deserved to die a horrible death in her previous life.
Chu Qiao sneered at herself in the mirror. Although she had a good figure and good looks, the clothes she was wearing were hiding her beauty. The loose white shirt was old-fashioned, long and fat, and the black pants were also big. She was also wearing a pair of black sandals. This outfit perfectly covered her good figure, and her thick bangs covered half of her face. Her good looks and good figure were all ruined by this old-fashioned outfit.
This was all thanks to her good stepmother.
She also blamed herself for being stupid.
His stepmother, He Jihong, was very good at putting on a facade. She never spoke harshly to her. Every good thing was done by her, and the bad things were all done by her biological father, Chu Yuanzhi. In her previous life, Chu Qiao hated her father very much, and she felt that her biological father was worse than her stepmother, but now she understood. Although her biological father was not a good person, he still had a little bit of conscience towards her. It was just that his ears were too soft, and his courage was too small. He could not protect her at all.
The sound of keys being inserted came from the door. Chu Qiao rushed into her room, closed the door, and hid behind the door. Outside the door, the voices of her stepmother and stepsister, Xu Bilian, could be heard.
