Zheng Muyun stayed in the hospital for about another week. After a thorough medical examination, she was discharged.
Her life, which had been imprisoned and tormented by Su Zhang Lin for twenty years like a prisoner, was rescued by her own son.
No. 58 Yonghe Road.
Zheng Muyun and Bai Jinghan stood at the door, looking at the green tiles and red walls, the four doorstops on the vermilion gate, the azure sky above the door frame, and the magpies fluttering by.
They are all new students.
It's all freedom.
The torment of the past twenty years cannot be erased, but the days to come are filled with visible, graspable, and compensable happiness.
Seeing Zheng Muyun standing blankly at the door, Bai Zheming assumed she still wanted to return to the Bai Family mansion and sighed softly, "Mom, our house on Green Moon Mountain is still there..."
Zheng Muyun took Bai Zheming's hand, shook her head, and then smiled at him, "Let's stay here. We'll go pay our respects to your Uncle Wang over there in a few days."
As they were talking, the vermilion gate opened from the inside.
It's Zhao Jiayuan.
I received a message saying they had arrived at my doorstep from the hospital, and they held a welcoming ceremony inside, but I've been waiting for ages and no one has come in.
Zhao Jiayuan ran out to see what was going on.
As soon as the door opened, Zhao Jiayuan saw Zheng Muyun Bai Jinghan, and Bai Zheming standing at the entrance. He immediately turned around with a smile and called out, "We're here!"
After shouting, he grinned, his face beaming, and called out to the outside, "Auntie, Uncle, come in quickly!"
Come home!
A-Wang's house is big. As they walked in, Zhao Jiayuan excitedly said, " Xiaoxi said this piece of land is going to be allocated to me. I want to plant some scallions here in a while."
He scratched the back of his head, grinning foolishly, "I'm afraid the others won't survive."
As they were talking, Zhao Ke came up to them. He had clearly heard what Zhao Jiayuan said, and he greeted him with a smile, calling him "Uncle" and "Auntie." He then pointed to a vacant lot next to them and said, " Xiaoxi said that this vacant lot is allocated to me. I'm going to plant some tomatoes and peppers here. When they're ripe, Auntie, how about you make me some scrambled eggs with tomatoes? I heard from Bai Zheming that Auntie's scrambled eggs with tomatoes are really delicious."
Zheng Muyun's nose felt sore.
After regaining her memories, she recalled countless times the days when she was imprisoned by Su Zhang Lin.
Su Zhang Lin told them again and again that Xiaoxi had been burned to death, describing how Xiaoxi had been burned, how her arms, legs, and face were burned...
After she regained her memory, she was awakened countless times in the middle of the night by nightmares, all of which involved Jiang Mingxi crying out in the fire, "Mommy, Xiaoxi is scared, Mommy! Save Xiaoxi!"
But her Xiaoxi is perfectly fine now.
Having such good friends by my side...
During their time in the hospital, Bai Zheming and Jiang Mingxi stayed by their side day and night. They both spoke highly of the good things that had happened over the years, and no one mentioned a single bad word about it.
Zheng Muyun could only speculate about how Bai Zheming was doing, but how was Jiang Mingxi doing...?
Zheng Muyun secretly went online to check.
That's terrible.
She was adopted and beaten, taken home and bullied to the point of cutting her wrists, countless times. Her Xiaoxi was far from good.
These things are not good; even a little bit of them makes her heart ache so badly she can't breathe.
Her Xiaoxi suffered countless injustices.
"Aunt!"
The group walked in talking, and just as they passed the second gate, two crisp sounds came from behind them.
Zheng Muyun turned her head and immediately recognized the two girls who came forward to greet her.
"Hello Auntie, my name is Manman. I'm so happy to see you! Do you remember me?" Manman, a lively girl, greeted us with a smile.
The tears that Zheng Muyun had been holding back finally streamed down her face when she saw her and the girl beside her.
That day.
Right there in the convenience store, she saw her Xiaoxi on the two girls' phones.
The two girls bought popsicles at the convenience store and sat on a bench outside the store, watching variety shows on their phones.
She was drawn in by a voice on her phone calling " Xiaoxi!" and secretly stood behind them to look over.
The child in the phone, with a fair and clean face and big, bright eyes, looked strangely familiar. In that instant, Zheng Muyun's memories of being forcibly suppressed by Su Zhang Lin began to surface.
"Hello Auntie, my name is Qianqian, I'm... I'm a fan of Jiang Mingxi." Qianqian stood timidly next to Manman. "Yes, it was Jiang Mingxi who saved me."
She never expected that day, because of her unstable emotions, Manman suggested that she watch Jiang Mingxi's variety show to adjust her mood. The two of them bought popsicles and sat in front of the convenience store watching...
By sheer chance, they actually met Jiang Mingxi's mother!
"Auntie and Uncle are here!" Gao Le stood at the entrance of the inner courtyard and shouted as he saw a group of people walking towards him.
In the courtyard.
Jiang Mingxi, wearing an apron, was bringing out dumplings to put on the table in the yard when she saw them come in. Jiang Mingxi immediately smiled and said, "Mom and Dad, come and eat!"
Zhao Jiayuan exclaimed, " Xiaoxi and I made these dumplings together!"
Zhao Ke chimed in, "Me too! I've got one too, and I've put ten peanuts in it. We'll see who's lucky enough to find a peanut in it; good things will happen to them!"
They escorted Zheng Muyun and Bai Jinghan to the dining table.
Inside the house.
Grandpa Song directed Song Lan, Chen Chong, Feng Moshan, and Song Bai to cook the meal themselves.
A table laden with dishes.
A-Wang carried a jar from the side courtyard. Special Assistant Su looked at A-Wang's back with concern and followed beside him, saying, "Give it to me, I'll carry it over."
A-Wang insisted on holding it, saying, "I can give you anything else, but not this. I buried this wine under the pomegranate tree the day I bought this house. I was thinking that I would dig it up when Xiaoxi found her mother."
Special Assistant Su lightly touched his waist. "Are you sure Xiaoxi's mother is still alive?"
A-Wang glanced at the bustling crowd in the distance, pursed his lips, and said, "I'm not sure, but whether he's still alive or not, I will find his mother."
Special Assistant Su didn't understand.
A-Wang laughed, "As long as you have money, there's nothing you can't do. Otherwise, what would I do with all that money? I'll try my best to find one. If I really can't find one, I'll buy him a mother. Whatever kind he likes, I'll buy him."
Special Assistant Su frowned.
Thinking back to my last trip to Xuancheng for a meeting, I overheard someone jokingly mentioning that Pei Heng Pei Clan of Xuancheng had found nine mothers for his wife.
Thinking of Pei Heng, Special Assistant Su couldn't help but ask, "Do the Bai Family know about Xiaoxi's illness?"
A-Wang shook his head, "If they really care about him, they'll know even if I don't say anything. They're not that concerned..."
Even if they are his own parents, A-Wang wouldn't feel comfortable telling anyone.
A-Wang didn't say it aloud, but Special Assistant Su understood. "Then why did you tell Song Lan back then?"
Could their second young master be more reliable than Jiang Mingxi's biological parents?
