cute in his palm

Chapter 224

When Mu Jiu mentions her brother's illness now, she feels a headache. She even thinks about asking the hospital to prescribe some sleeping pills for her brother, and then transport him directly to the United States for surgery.

"It's okay, let him think for himself, my brother has a stubborn temper, if he insists on not being willing, no one can force him." On the contrary, Mu Jiu has become much more relaxed now.

Since Jiang Dingcheng told her that it is good for him to handle her brother's affairs, she also completely believes that Jiang Dingcheng can persuade her brother.

The two of them had a nice chat.

Jiang Dingcheng should be able to persuade his brother to go to the United States for surgery.

"Yeah, Liangchen's temper is stubborn, and most people can't resist it." Tao Mian also admitted.

She understood Mu Liangchen's character.

He usually looks very gentle and easy to get along with, but once he sticks to a certain principle, ten cows will not be able to pull him back.

"So, let's talk about it in a few days. The doctor said that my brother's condition will be fine in a short time." Mu Jiu comforted Tao Mian.

Tao Mian thought about it, and then asked her, "Liangchen's illness is so serious, have you ever thought about telling your aunt?"

As soon as she heard about that woman, Mu Jiu's mood sank immediately, and she almost braked.

"Mianmian, you clearly know..." Mu Jiu didn't want to say the following words, knowing how much they hated her for abandoning her back then.

Although she hated that woman, she was Tao Mian's real aunt and brother's mother after all. Now that his brother was so seriously ill, he should have told her. Maybe his condition really got worse?
"Xiao Jiu, I know it was her fault that my aunt left you like that, but after all, she is the mother of you and Liang Chen, and Liang Chen is so seriously ill now, as a mother, she should have the right to know." Tao Mian reasoned He said affectionately.

Although Mu Jiu knew what Tao Mian meant, but now she didn't have the heart to care about that woman.

"Mianmian, when she was able to abandon us, she already broke up with us, so we have grown up to such an age, and it has nothing to do with her. I won't tell her about my brother, and you shouldn't either." Mu Jiu said with a serious face.

She knew that Tao Mian should still be in touch with that woman, otherwise she wouldn't have asked such a question.

Seventeen or eighteen years have passed since they abandoned their brother and sister at the time. Did my elder brother tell her when he was sick, so that she could relive the feeling of being a mother?

no need.

At that time, she had already lost the qualification to be a mother, so now she will not give her this qualification. If my brother wants it, then let him contact her by himself.

Anyway, she is determined not to contact.

"Xiao Jiu..." Tao Mian looked at her with some embarrassment and said.

"Mianmian, let's not bring up this matter again, okay, I don't want to hear another word about her." Mu Jiu resolutely refused.

Tao Mian still wanted to say something, but seeing her determined look, she didn't say anything anymore.

What my aunt did so badly back then should really make Xiao Jiu hate her.

After any child is abandoned by his father or mother, the hatred for them will only become deeper and deeper. In addition, now that Liangchen is seriously ill and her aunt has never appeared, it's no wonder that Mu Jiu doesn't hate her.

However, she had her own reasons for her aunt's behavior at that time. The marriage between her and Mu Andong was decided by the two adults. She didn't love Anton at all. decided to leave.

It doesn't matter if you say she is selfish or cruel, but it's just to get rid of the shackles of marriage without love.

So to put it bluntly, there is nothing wrong with her striving for happiness for herself. What is wrong is that she abandons her child for more than ten years. It is normal for children to accumulate resentment.

Tao Mian is understandable.

However, my aunt visited her at the military academy from France, and talked to her about Xiaojiu and Liangchen. After all, these two are her children. I owe them all these years, and I always want to get their forgiveness and start anew. Get to know mother and child.

Tao Mian hoped that they could regain their mother-child relationship, but judging from Mu Jiu's attitude, it might be difficult.

"Mianmian, I'm sorry, my tone was a bit aggressive just now." Mu Jiu found that Tao Mian's mood was a little low, probably because he just spoke a little too seriously.

"No, I'm fine. What you said, Xiaojiu, is not wrong. Auntie was indeed sorry for you and Liangchen back then. It's normal for you not to forgive her." Tao Mian just looked at this matter from the perspective of a passerby.

"En." Mu Jiu responded lightly, not intending to mention this matter any more.

It's been seventeen or eighteen years, and she's become a little numb from hatred.

It's just that she still feels disgusted when someone mentions this woman in front of her. Whenever she hears any news about her, Mu Jiu's first reaction is to resist.

Since then, neither of them talked about life until the car drove to the cemetery.

At the foot of the mountain, Tao Mian's face became serious.

Four years have passed, and this is the first time she has come to Cheng Dong's tombstone, so she is already a little sad before she arrives.

"Mianmian?" Mu Jiu got out of the car, but saw Tao Mian was sitting on the seat and didn't even take off his seat belt, as if he didn't want to get out of the car.

Now that they have summoned up the courage to come here, why do they retreat temporarily when they get here? This is not Tao Mian's style. She has never been a person who would evade responsibility.

"Mianmian, don't you want to get out of the car? We've arrived, and the tombstone of Brother Cheng is just ahead." Mu Jiu opened Tao Mian's car door and pointed to a certain location on the mountain.

Of course Tao Mian knew which tombstone Cheng Dong was buried in, but he just couldn't muster up the courage to come and see him.

"Xiao Jiu, I... I don't want to go again, let's go back."

Tao Mian was timid, she refused to look at Cheng Dong's tombstone, afraid that seeing the word Cheng Dong would force her to admit that Cheng Dong was really dead.

"Mianmian, we've all reached the foot of the mountain, why don't you..."

"Xiao Jiu, I still don't have the courage to say goodbye to Cheng Dong." Tao Mian murmured.

Four years ago, she returned to China with Cheng Dong's ashes in her arms, and passed out the moment she got off the plane. She didn't wake up until three days after Cheng Dong's funeral, so she didn't make the final farewell.

Mu Jiu knew that there was a hurdle in Tao Mian's heart, just like she also had a hurdle in her heart. This kind of hurdle cannot be helped by outsiders, and she can only overcome it by herself, otherwise she will not be able to pass it for a lifetime.

Cheng Dong is the deepest hurdle in Tao Mian's heart. If she can't get over it, she will always be trapped in the pain of losing Cheng Dong.
