Chapter 49 Chen Yulian was discharged from the hospital and returned to the Qiao family on her own.

Nobody knew what he was looking at.

Qiao Qiao thought for a moment, then got up and walked over.

She was short, and with her short legs, she needed to hold onto the door to step out of the main room.

After some effort, she arrived at Fu Yu's side and first reached out to tug at the corner of his clothes.

After he looked over, she said, "Brother Yu, time to eat! Grandma made spicy dry pot rabbit, it's so delicious!"

Fu Yu didn't move, but looked down at her little hand that was holding the hem of his clothes.

Qiao Qiao seemed to realize something, so she let go of his clothes and rummaged in her own pocket, soon pulling out the osmanthus flower she had casually picked earlier.

She smiled and held out her hands, making sure she sounded sincere: "Brother Yu, look, these are osmanthus flowers I specially brought back for you from the back mountain. They smell amazing!"

She lowered her voice as she spoke, as if she didn't want others to hear.

"Only Brother Yu has these; no one else does."

So, dear Yu-gege, please give her more affection points so that she can increase her consciousness.

The osmanthus flower that the little girl was holding in her palm had wilted and even turned black.

But Fu Yu's gaze softened because of her words.

He reached out and took the osmanthus flower she held in her palm.

"Alright, let's go eat. If we're late, the meat will be eaten by the older brothers." Qiao Qiao said, patting the little hand that Fu Yu had picked up even a tiny osmanthus flower between her fingers.

"Okay." Fu Yu nodded, put the osmanthus in his palm, and then walked towards the main room with one hand on his cane and the other holding Qiao Qiao's small hand.

In the countryside, children are usually not allowed to eat at the table.

They either carried bowls around the village or used tall benches as tables, sitting in a line in the courtyard to eat.

Today, Qiao's family ate a bit too well, so the boys didn't take their bowls outside; instead, they all gathered in the yard.

When passing by the entrance of the main room, next to Qiao Qiao who was using a chair as a table, people would consciously stop.

She would transfer the better cuts of meat from her own bowl, or the scrambled eggs without chili, into her small enamel bowl.

After receiving a sweet thank you from their younger sister and being told that they loved their older brother the most, everyone's lips curled up in a wide smile.

The Qiao family ate their lunch with great satisfaction, not to mention the boys, even Qiao Qiao, who had never experienced hardship.

This is a benefit she earned for her family through her own abilities, which makes her very happy and satisfied.

In addition, Grandma Qiao and her two aunts are indeed very good cooks.

Not to mention the spicy rabbit, even that simple wild egg stir-fried with chili peppers is incredibly delicious.

In contrast, the Qiao family's side was filled with a harmonious scene of everyone enjoying their food.

The Chen sisters, who were in the hospital at the time, were not having such a good time.

More than an hour ago.

"Ah Lian, Ah Lian, damn it, do you know who I just saw at the hospital!"

Chen Xiue rushed into the ward in a flurry of activity, shouting and yelling, without any regard for the other pregnant women in the same room.

She rushed to Chen Yulian's bedside and said angrily, "I just saw your man at the cafeteria entrance, and he was with a young man! Your sister-in-law personally escorted him out!"

"You just gave birth to a girl, and your husband didn't come to take you home, but instead brought a boy back from outside. What does that mean?"

These days, the Qiao family hasn't come to pick up Chen Yulian. Apart from going to the Qiao family a few times to persuade Grandma Qiao, Chen's mother hasn't come to the hospital.

Chen Yulian was always taken care of by Chen Xiu'e.

Chen Xiu'e was hoping that the Qiao family would come to take Chen Yulian back, and then Chen Yulian, remembering the care she had given her during this time, would persuade the Qiao family to give her third daughter to the eldest branch of the Qiao family for adoption.

Now that Qiao Changdong has suddenly brought back a boy he doesn't recognize, Chen Xiu'e can't help but wonder.

She was afraid that someone else would take away her position as the third daughter.

"Kid?" Chen Yulian's face darkened. "Are you sure you're not mistaken?"

"How could I be wrong? I'd recognize him even if he were ashes!"

"I saw him leading a boy who was about half a year old. I saw it very clearly. It wasn't one of the Qiao family members. It was a boy I had never seen before!"

She's also extremely good-looking.

However, Chen Xiu'e did not say the last part. She just glanced subconsciously at her little niece who was being held in Chen Yulian's arms and nursing.

My little niece has grown a bit in the last few days.

But it's even uglier now.

Sometimes she would wonder to herself, even in her own Chen family, where not everyone was particularly good-looking, there were no children this ugly.

How could Chen Yulian's child be so ugly despite having such good looks as the Qiao family?

She was worried that this girl would never be able to get married when she grew up!

Chen Yulian didn't speak, but her face looked pale, and she couldn't help feeling flustered.

These past few days, she has been staying in the hospital, trying to appear calm.

Firstly, she knew in her heart that Qiao Changdong was still angry with her, after all, he had called the police, which showed how angry he was.

She thought she might as well wait until he calmed down and came to pick her up before going back.

Anyway, she didn't believe the Qiao family would abandon her because of this; otherwise, she would be gossiped about and cursed by the villagers.

It's only a matter of time before we bring her back.

Secondly, I'm afraid that if I'm discharged and go back home, I'll have to pay for the hospital stay myself.

Although she had money.

After marrying Qiao Changdong, although he didn't give her all his salary, he did give her twenty yuan a month for household expenses.

However, Grandma Qiao always ate with their family and bore most of the household expenses. The twenty yuan that Qiao Changdong gave her every month was never used.

She had only been married to Qiao Changdong for half a year, but she had already saved more than 100 yuan. After deducting the money she gave to her family, she still had 80 or 90 yuan left.

But now she can't stand it anymore.

She was afraid that Qiao Changdong would bring back another boy from outside to raise.

Boys and girls are not the same.

If she really has a son in the family, even if she has another son later, it won't compare.

She pulled down her clothes, turned around and put her daughter on the bed, took out her luggage bag from under the bed, and was about to pack her things to go back.

"Ah Lian, what are you doing?" Chen Xiu'e asked knowingly as she watched Chen Yulian pack her things.

"Go back." Chen Yulian said without turning her head.

She couldn't wait any longer.

She feared that if she waited any longer, the Qiao family would have nowhere for her and her daughter to stay.

"Then I'll help you. You're still in your postpartum period, so please rest." Chen Xiue was overjoyed and quickly said.

These past few days, she had tried to persuade Chen Yulian to go back to the Qiao family, but she just wouldn't agree. Now that she was finally willing, she was naturally more enthusiastic than anyone else.

As she was putting things away, Chen Xiue remembered something and stopped.

Seeing that she had suddenly stopped moving, Chen Yulian reached out and pushed her.

Chen Xiu'e turned to look at Chen Yulian and whispered a few words in her ear.

Chen Yulian's expression shifted, and after a long while, she nodded, abandoning her plan to go back today.
