Chapter 221 Yu’s mother’s self-blame!
Chapter 221 Yu’s mother’s self-blame!
After Jia Dongming left the crime scene on his bicycle, he rode towards the steel rolling mill. As he was riding, he passed by Qianmen Street.
When he saw the tavern on Qianmen Street, Jia Dongming remembered what Guo Jianguo had asked him to report, so he turned the bike around and rode towards Xueru Silk Shop.
Soon Jia Dongming arrived at the door of Xueru Silk Shop. Thinking of the enemy spy in the plot of Little Woman, Jia Dongming rode his bicycle directly towards the backyard of the silk shop.
Soon Jia Dongming arrived at the backyard of Xueru Silk Shop. Looking at the closed door, he immediately used his Eagle Eye skill to scout the yard in front of him, only to find that the yard was empty.
This discovery made Jia Dongming feel very puzzled. He murmured to himself in his heart: "Could it be that the plot of the little woman has deviated? Why is there no one living in this yard?"
Although he was puzzled, Jia Dongming used his Eagle Eye skill again to scout the courtyard. He soon discovered the secret room under the courtyard, as well as the radio and weapons placed in the secret room.
After discovering the radio and weapons in the secret room, Jia Dongming realized that the plot had not changed. The first team had been waiting for so many days without any results. It should be that the enemy spies hiding in the yard did not come back, or the yard had not yet been activated by the enemy spies.
After making sure that there was no one in the small yard, Jia Dongming gave up the idea of continuing reconnaissance and rode his bicycle towards the steel mill.
After working in the textile factory for two days, Yu Li gradually adapted to the work in the textile factory. At the same time, she felt that her life had not only become more fulfilling, but also more hopeful.
Around five o'clock in the evening, after Yu Li finished her lunch in the factory cafeteria, she pushed her bicycle, said goodbye to her co-workers, and rode towards the hospital.
"Sister! Aren't you going to work in the textile factory? How come you have time to come to the hospital at this time?" Yu Li walked into the ward carrying a cloth bag. Yu Haitang, who was sitting in the ward eating, saw Yu Li coming, and immediately put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hands, and asked Yu Li happily.
When Yu Li heard Yu Haitang's question, she took off the cloth bag hanging on her shoulder and replied with a smile: "I haven't seen my mother for several days, so I came to see her now that I have some free time."
Yu Li took out two cans from her bag and asked her mother with a smile, "Mom! Are you feeling better?"
Mother Yu looked at Yu Li in work clothes with a happy smile on her face. She still replied in a weak voice, "Xiao Li! I'm much better now. It's just that I feel uncomfortable lying like this all day."
"Sister! Is this canned beef? Where did you get this canned beef? I heard that this canned beef is very delicious." When Yu Haitang saw the two cans of canned beef that Yu Li took out of the bag, her eyes suddenly lit up. She quickly walked to the bedside table, picked up a can of beef, and asked Yu Li with surprise.
When Yu Li heard Yu Haitang asking about the source of the canned beef, she couldn't help but think of Jia Dongming. A happy glow inadvertently appeared on her crystal-clear face, and she said leisurely, "Haitang! These two cans of canned beef were given to me by a friend of mine. I thought our mother needed nutritional supplements the most during this period, so I sent them to her."
Yu Li's reaction was seen by her mother who was lying on the hospital bed. Her mother frowned and asked Yu Li tentatively, "Xiao Li! Who is your friend to send you such an expensive can of beef? Don't forget that you have a family. You can't do anything to let Yan Jiecheng down."
When Yu Li heard her mother's reminder, she realized that her natural reaction just now had been seen by her mother. Thinking of Yan Jiecheng, the selfish guy, Yu Li's face immediately showed hatred, and she complained to her mother with some dissatisfaction: "Mom! Why do you mention Yan Jiecheng, the selfish guy? Since the day you were hospitalized, I have no relationship with him anymore."
At this time, Yu's mother didn't know that Yu Li had divorced Yan Jiecheng. Facing Yu Li's complaint, Yu's mother showed a guilty expression on her face and blamed herself: "Xiao Li! If I didn't have this disease, you and Jiecheng wouldn't have quarreled. It's all because of mom who implicated you." Yu Li heard Yu's mother's self-blame and quickly comforted her mother: "Mom! If you hadn't suddenly fallen ill this time, I wouldn't have been able to see Yan Jiecheng's true nature. So what happened between me and Yan Jiecheng has nothing to do with you. You don't have to feel guilty about my affairs at all."
When Yu's mother heard Yu Li's consolation and thought of the blind date between Yu Li and Yan Jiecheng, she said with regret, "Xiao Li! When you were dating Yan Jiecheng, your father and I saw that the Yan family was an honest family, and their upbringing should be much better than other families. If you married into the Yan family, it would be considered a decent marriage. But I didn't expect that the real Yan family would be full of calculations and stinginess."
When Yu Li heard her mother's complaints, she quickly comforted her mother, "Mom! This matter has nothing to do with you and my dad. It's mainly because I didn't know people well. I didn't see in advance that Yan Jiecheng was willing to ignore his relatives for money, so I married into the Yan family. If you want to blame someone, you can only blame myself for being blind."
Yu's mother didn't know that Yu Li and Yan Jiecheng were getting divorced. When she heard Yu Li's answer and thought of the character of the Yan family, she looked at Yu Li with heartache and replied with a sigh: "Xiao Li! This is fate!"
When Yu Li heard her mother's answer and thought about everything she had now, she smiled and comforted her mother: "Mom! I have found a job now and have a fixed income every month. I believe everything will be fine, so you don't have to worry about me."
When Yu's mother heard Yu Li's consolation, she nodded subconsciously and advised Yu Li, "Xiao Li! Husband and wife quarrel, and they make up at the end of the bed. Although Yan Jiecheng deducted a little, life still needs to go on. Just pretend that nothing happened and it will pass if you endure it."
After hearing her mother's advice, Yu Li wanted to tell her mother that she and Yan Jiecheng had divorced. However, considering her mother's illness, Yu Li finally resisted the urge and nodded, "Mom! I know."
Yu Li said this and then told Yu Haitang who was standing beside her: "Haitang! Come out with me."
When Yu Haitang heard Yu Li's instructions, she immediately followed Yu Li out of the ward and asked Yu Li curiously, "Sister! Why did you call me out? What's the matter?"
When Yu Li heard Yu Haitang's question, she took out the money and receipts she had prepared in advance from her pocket and said to Yu Haitang, "Haitang! Keep these ten dollars and receipts. Buy some nutritious food for our mother during this period to nourish us."
When Yu Haitang saw the money and bills Yu Li handed over to her, she was surprised and asked Yu Li: "Sister! Where did you get these money and bills?"
When Yu Li heard Yu Haitang's question, she glared at Yu Haitang unhappily and replied, "Don't worry about where I got the money and notes. Just keep them if I ask you to. I now live on Gulou East Street, at the entrance of Xiaojing Hutong, in a courtyard with shops along the street. If you have any questions, you can find me there."
After hearing what Yu Li said, Yu Haitang took it to heart and said to Yu Li, "Sister! I've taken note of everything you said. I'm here to take care of mom, so there won't be any problems. Just go to work with peace of mind!"
After hearing Yu Haitang's promise, Yu Li nodded with confidence and replied, "Okay! It's getting late now, so I'll go back first. If anything happens to mom, you must remember to inform me as soon as possible."
After Yu Li finished explaining everything to Yu Haitang, she walked into the ward, said hello to Yu's mother, and then left the hospital, riding her bicycle towards Gulou Street.
