Chapter 441

~8 min read 1,459 words

According to common sense, Shen Man, as a mother, was the least able to listen to such things.

But after hearing this, she felt nothing.

"What's wrong? Are you not feeling well?"

Jiang Ye, who had been paying attention to his wife, instantly noticed his wife's daze.

"No, it's just that I suddenly feel a bit strange. Forget it, let's go into the carriage first. Maybe I didn't sleep well last night, let me catch up on some sleep."

Shen Man tried to ignore this strange feeling, although she didn't know where this strange feeling came from.

Jiang Ye was worried about his wife's answer. Was it really like this?

"Clatter—clatter—clatter—"

With the start of the train, this trip to the Capital came to an end.

And at this time, the little boy who was urgently sent to the hospital for treatment opened his eyes.

How could he still be alive?

Shouldn't he have died in the fire he lit himself?

"The patient is awake. Little guy, how do you feel?"

The nurse was the first to discover that this poor little boy had woken up, so she hurriedly pressed the bell to call the attending doctor.

This little boy was really pitiful, not to mention that there wasn't a piece of good skin on his body, and there was a tail behind his butt, which was an atavistic phenomenon.

Thinking about it, his parents must have disliked him because of this, which is why they sold him to the circus, right?

And the circus animal trainer was a beast; he could even lay a hand on such a small child. He deserved to die in the fire!

"Where is this? Who are you?"

Zhou Manjin curled up in fear, his eyes full of fear and vigilance.

A child nearly three years old was as thin as a child about one year old.

It was enough to prove that he had a very bad time in the circus.

"Little friend, don't be afraid, this is the city hospital, you were saved by someone, I am a nurse, I won't hurt you."

The nurse saw this and hurriedly comforted him.

Then she took a lollipop out of her pocket, unwrapped it, and stuffed it into the little friend's mouth.

"You eat it first, I'll call the attending doctor to come and check your body. I'll go and get you a bowl of thin porridge. Only after you are full will you have the strength to have surgery."

Zhou Manjin tasted sweetness for the first time, his tense body relaxed slightly, and he asked cautiously:

"Nurse sister, what surgery are you going to do for me?"

"Excision surgery for you. The little tail on your butt is an atavistic phenomenon. If your parents could have sent you to the hospital for excision when you were just born, it would have healed long ago without any scars."

The nurse's tone was gentle as she explained.

At the same time, she felt very sympathetic to this little boy in her heart; he was so small and had encountered such childhood shadows.

"But I have no money."

Zhou Manjin lowered his eyelashes, looking pitiful.

But in his heart, he was thinking that when he had the ability to find his father, he would definitely torture him to death!

Giving birth without raising him, abandoning him, his mother abusing him like a madwoman, and selling him to the circus as a monster...

"Don't be afraid, our hospital has a public welfare project, we can treat you for free. After you recover from your injuries, we will send you to an orphanage.

Although the orphanage isn't a very good place, if someone adopts a child and takes a fancy to you, you can still have a happy home."

The nurse comforted the little boy; these were all her heartfelt words.

If the little boy were sent directly to the orphanage, the tail behind him would be a tool for other children and adults to bully him.

If the child grew up like this, with a dark heart, it wouldn't be surprising if he went astray.

So they discussed it and applied for this public welfare surgery with the director.

"Thank you, sister."

Zhou Manjin heard these words, and the hatred surging in his heart was suppressed.

Humans are strange; there are bad people and good people.

His hatred for his parents didn't decrease, but he couldn't vent his anger on those who were kind to him.

However, the other party was right; as long as he became normal, maybe one day, a family would be willing to adopt him.

He needed to lie low and grow up.

Not long after, a male doctor in a white coat walked in. Seeing the little boy awake, he smiled.

"Little friend, is there anywhere in your body that feels uncomfortable?"

"Gurgle, gurgle, gurgle."

Responding to him was the empty city strategy coming from Zhou Manjin's stomach. The nurse saw this, hurriedly gave an instruction, and went to the canteen to get porridge.

If there were boiled eggs in the canteen, she would pay out of her own pocket to buy one for this little friend.

Nothing else, as a mother, she really couldn't bear to see children suffer.

"Little friend, what is your name? How old are you this year?"

The doctor filled in the information on the medical record. For abandoned children, their identities were probably black households.

"My name is, Mao Mao, I'm almost three years old this year."

Zhou Manjin didn't want to use the name given by his heartless parents; he wanted to start over.

"Okay, Mao Mao, after the nurse sister finishes feeding you, we will have surgery in the afternoon.

Don't worry, Uncle Doctor guarantees that I will cut off your little tail cleanly, and in the future, you will be the same as a normal little boy..."

The doctor felt heartbroken; such a small child, abused like this!

Truly heartless parents; he cursed that pair of parents to have no descendants!

Zhou Manjin, oh no, Mao Mao looked at the doctor gratefully.

During these days in the circus, he learned to observe words and colors.

He knew how to show weakness to avoid abuse.

No matter what, now that this doctor and that nurse treated him well and felt sorry for him, he had a way to make them sympathize with him, thereby planning a good family to adopt him.

In the remote mountainous area, the National Day holiday ended, and the students returned to the classroom one after another.

The only teacher, Zuo Weiguo, happily raised a smiling face.

Manman was found to be pregnant, their child!

Whether it was a boy or a girl, he regarded it as a treasure.

Although his family had severed relations with him, he still sent a letter to his parents at home.

It was his fault as a son, but his child was innocent. He didn't ask his parents to forgive him, but reporting the good news was a move he should make as a son.

"Teacher, why are you so happy?"

"Yes, teacher, you haven't smiled so happily for a long time."

"Your teacher's wife is pregnant, I have a child."

Zuo Weiguo smiled honestly, his joy overflowing in words.

After hearing this, the students all applauded and congratulated him.

They all knew that the teacher's wife's brain wasn't quite normal.

But the teacher didn't mind at all and was very good to his wife.

Now that the teacher and his wife had a baby, they sincerely congratulated them and were happy for the teacher.

So, after school, they went home and told their parents and elders the good news.

Although the mountainous area was backward, the folk customs were simple.

After learning the news, every household took out the good things they had kept at the bottom of the box: bacon they couldn't bear to eat, cloth they couldn't bear to wear, and brown sugar they couldn't bear to use.

Little by little, they gathered a pile, and then the old village chief sent it to Teacher Zuo's house.

"Teacher Zuo, you are a person, these things were pooled by the villagers, give them to your wife to supplement her body.

Don't decline. You can stay to teach, open the mind for the dolls in our mountain ditch, and change their future destiny. Please don't dislike these things..."

Zuo Weiguo never thought the people in the village would treat him like this, and he was extremely grateful in his heart.

He didn't decline; his wife really needed to supplement her body.

After accepting the things, the two chatted for a while. When the old village chief left, his back was very hunched...
