C543 For Mercy
"Mo, go and see Second Xue." Early in the morning, Old Lady Xue sat at the doorstep and squatted down to Third Xue, who was about to go out. She suddenly opened her mouth and almost scared Third Xue.2
Third Xue's foot stopped when he stepped out of the house. He turned his head to look at Old Lady Xue, his face full of disbelief.
When it was so serious back then, he thought that his mother did not want to care about Second Elder Brother anymore. Who knew that his mother was still thinking about Second Elder Brother.
After that, he was wild with joy for a while. His face was full of smiles, and he could not close his mouth. He did not even want to work anymore. He directly asked his colleagues to help him take a leave of absence. As for himself, he planned to go to the kitchen to pack some things and bring them to Second Xue's house.
Seeing that he was busy, Old Lady Xue frowned and was somewhat puzzled. "What are you doing?"
"Go to Second Elder Brother's house and bring him some things. He is still sick." The last sentence was obviously to make Old Lady Xue's heart ache. When Old Lady Xue spoke just now, he thought that she had gone back on her word.
Who knew that Old Lady Xue took out a bag from beside her feet and placed it in a conspicuous place. She said, "Here, it's right here."
As she spoke, Old Lady Xue turned around again and no longer looked at Third Xue. She was still very awkward herself. If Second Xue was not her child, she really would not want to care anymore.
Third Xue picked up the bag and looked. There were a lot of things here. What noodles and milk powder were there? It was just that they didn't have money. That was true. If he put away the money, Wang Zhaodi would probably snatch it away.
Yesterday, he also heard that Wang Zhaodi gave birth to another baby. It was very likely that she would not be able to raise it. On the other hand, it was somewhat tiring for Second Elder Brother to take care of the child alone.
He still had to earn wages.
"Mother, I'm leaving now. You should stay at home." Third Xue greeted her and left with his things. He did not see Old Lady Xue's reluctant look after he left.
She also wanted to follow Third Xue to see her son, but since they had said that they would move out, she had to be like the other families in the village now.
When Third Xue arrived, he knocked on the door many times but no one opened it. In the end, he tried to push the door open. This time, the door opened.
He took the things inside and looked around. Finally, he found Second Xue and the sleeping Wang Zhaodi on the bed. Second Xue was still holding the child in his arms.
Second Xue was in a daze at the moment. He heard a sound and barely opened his eyes. He was afraid that it was a thief, so he held the child tightly.
"Who is it?"
His voice was very hoarse and weak. His face was pale and his eyes were unfocused. No matter how one looked at him, one could not tell that he was in high spirits.
Third Xue choked and said in a low voice, "Second Elder Brother, I have come to see you."
Second Xue's wariness was finally lowered. He stretched out his hand to support his body, but was held back by Third Xue. Third Xue found a random chair and sat down. He looked at the man in front of him with a complicated look.
His sideburns seemed to have grown some white hair.
"Why are you here?" As Second Xue spoke, he suddenly coughed violently. His body was like a broken bellows, and he was about to cough out his heart.
"Second Elder Brother, is it really worth it for you to do this back then? Look at her. She doesn't even care about you and the child now." When Wang Zhaodi was mentioned behind Second Xue, Third Xue's face was filled with anger.
If it wasn't for Second Xue pulling her along, he would have chased her back to the Wang Family and let Wang Chunhua bite the dog together with Wang Zhaodi.
Now that the peaceful days were here, it made her even more arrogant. She did not even eat or work. How could she not live these days?
Lowering her eyelids, no one could see the bitterness and hatred in Second Xue's eyes. He slowly closed his eyes and sighed. "Go, Mo. Go back and take good care of your mother. Say sorry for me too."
"If you want to go, go by yourself. I won't say it on your behalf." Third Xue became excited for a moment and his voice became louder. He almost woke Wang Zhaodi up.
Wang Zhaodi pouted in her dream and quickly turned around to continue sleeping.
"Mo, I'll count it as Second Elder Brother begging you. In the future, I won't be filial in front of my mother anymore."
