Chapter 225 He is just a brother
When meeting her in-laws, Wu Meifeng always behaved very amicably and did not cause any trouble, so the whole process went very smoothly.
The parents of both parties scheduled the wedding for the fruitful autumn season of that year.
After returning from the hotel in the afternoon, Darong and Zhong Yunxing went directly to Ruyi's house.
"Ruyi, An'an, come with me tonight. You two can get a good night's sleep, and then pick up the kids tomorrow."
An An has always been a relatively easy child to take care of. Now he can sleep through the night and doesn’t need to be fed at night anymore.
But Darong still understands Ruyi's rare weekend and often takes An An away on weekends just to let Ruyi sleep in.
When coming out of Ruyi's house, little Anan seemed full of energy, but as soon as he got in the car, he became drowsy and soon fell asleep soundly in Darong's arms.
"This kid fell asleep as soon as he got in the car." Zhong Yunxing said happily after taking a look in the rearview mirror.
"If you sleep now, you will have to wake up when you get home." Darong said helplessly while holding little An An in her arms with a pout.
"Let's go, let's send them back. I won't take care of the kids today. Let my wife take a break. I'll turn around at the next intersection!"
Zhong Yunxing's serious tone made Da Rong so amused that she couldn't help but hit the back of the driver's seat from behind.
"You just talk nonsense. Send him back as if you can sit still at home. Have you ever not missed him when you can't see him?"
Zhong Yunxing bared his little white teeth in front and smiled happily again, but the smell of blood on his gums made him lick them again unconsciously.
"I have to go check my tooth later. It's been bleeding for the past two days and there's always a bloody taste in my mouth."
"Tomorrow is the weekend, and there are no doctors in the hospital. I just asked Ruyi, and she has made an appointment for Monday. I'll go with you."
After hearing what Zhong Yunxing said, Darong remembered what Ruyi had just told her.
"I'd better go by myself. You stay at home and take care of the kids."
After Zhong Yunxing and Darong brought the child home, Zhong's mother just came out of the house.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?" Zhong Yunxing glanced at Mother Zhong and felt that she didn't look very good.
"Xiaoping is sick..." As soon as Mother Zhong finished speaking, tears welled up in her cloudy eyes.
"what happened?"
Zhong Yunsheng had just seen Xiao Ping when he met his in-laws for lunch at noon. It had only been a few hours, so he didn't understand what Zhong's mother meant by "being sick."
"We had lunch together at noon. How did you hear this?" Darong also looked at Mother Zhong with a confused look on her face while holding the child.
"My aunt has been ill for a long time... She has never let me tell you... She got sick again today." Mother Zhong murmured while wiping her tears.
"Mom, what's going on? Please tell me slowly." After seeing Zhong's mother like this, Zhong Yunxing quickly helped her sit on the sofa.
After Zhong Yunping and Xiao Gao squeezed out Darong and Wu Meifeng, they have been running the cosmetics store on Food Street independently.
Xiao Gao is a very business-minded person. After several years of hard work, the business of his shop is becoming more and more prosperous.
From a small shop on Food Street to one of the best cosmetics stores in the southern suburbs, he completed the transformation and upgrading in less than ten years.
After her living standards improved, Xiaoping no longer had to run the store herself, and spent more time accompanying Miaomiao, who had excellent grades. After Miaomiao went to school in the city, the couple had completely become separated, spending less time together than together.
Once a middle-aged couple separates, their relationship will immediately plummet, and the resulting problems are self-evident.
Xiaoping suffered from severe depression as a result. Although she was still able to control her behavior in front of others, her condition had actually become very serious.
To define it with a term that we are more familiar with now, it is called "sunshine depression". It goes unnoticed on a daily basis, but once it occurs, it can be fatal.
After Darong and Zhong Yunxing finished listening to Zhong's mother's story, they both frowned slightly and said nothing.
Since Xiaoping has been hiding it, it means she doesn't want anyone to know about her family affairs. Now they are in a dilemma whether to persuade her or not.
"Why is Xiaoping sick today?" Zhong Yunxing was silent for a while and then asked Zhong's mother.
Although the word depression is not a new term, people of Zhong Yunxing and Darong's generation still know little about this disease.
"She said she smashed everything in the house... She talked to me for a long time, crying and shouting, and said she would take some medicine and go to sleep."
"This won't work. We should go to her house right away. Zhong Yunxing, take her grandmother there. Go quickly."
Darong suddenly thought of a distant relative of hers who had committed suicide by hanging. At that time, some people said that he committed suicide because of depression. She began to feel inexplicably nervous.
Mother Zhong is really old and her reaction has become slow. After hearing what Darong said, she took a long time to reflect, and seemed to finally understand what Darong meant. She followed Zhong Yunxing out without even changing her clothes.
Fortunately, Darong reacted quickly that day and Xiaoping was sent to the hospital for gastric lavage in time, so nothing irreversible happened.
"Is aunt okay?" It was already late in the evening when Zhong Yunxing got home.
"He's been rescued, but the first thing I did after he woke up was not to tell people." Zhong Yunxing frowned, and he felt his back teeth were clenched tightly.
"As long as you are alive, you have to hold on to this breath... People... Hey!"
Darong looked at Xiao Anan who was already sleeping soundly and sighed softly.
"Mom insisted on staying in the hospital. I came back to get her medicine. I'll stay there with her at night. Otherwise, who will take care of whom when one is old and the other is sick?"
"Where's Xiao Gao? Didn't he go to the hospital?" Darong asked with a little surprise.
Although he knew about Xiao Gao and Xiao Ping, they had not divorced after all. After Xiao Ping had encountered such a thing, he should at least go to the hospital to take care of her.
"Hmph... I called him and he said he was on the train and he definitely wouldn't be able to come back today."
Zhong Yunxing said as he packed his things, and Darong could feel the coldness in his tone.
Darong knew that he was in a bad mood, so she stopped talking.
When Zhong Yunxing had finished cleaning up half of the fruits, he seemed to be unable to suppress his inner emotions. He threw the half bag of fruits in his hand heavily to the ground and stomped on it to crush them.
"When Xiaoping was little, she was most afraid of taking medicine. Every time she was sick, I had to act like a monkey and do somersaults for her to coax her into taking the medicine. How did she swallow so many medicines?"
Darong walked silently to his side and gently stroked his trembling back with her hand. He was his brother, but he was just his brother.
