Tang Yucheng’s sister-in-law helped her onto the bed before carrying the infant in her arms. “Your daughter is so fair-skinned. She’s going to be gorgeous when she grows up.”
Tang Yucheng scooped Mu Wansheng some rice and asked, “How’s Auntie’s health?”
“It’s the same. Well, she’s been suffering from the same illness for years. She can’t be treated. We can only let her condition drag on. It’s pretty torturous for her, but there’s nothing we can do about it. Brother, have you named her yet?”
“Yes, her name is Mianmian.”
“Sounds great. Did Sis-in-law come up with that name?”
“Of course.”
“I thought so too. Brother, where does Sis-in-law’s family live?” the sister-in-law asked curiously.
“Your sis-in-law…”
Mu Wansheng said, “I don’t have a family.”
“Sis-in-law, tell us, how did you meet Brother? He refuses to tell us. What do you like about Brother?”
“We met by chance… Your brother is a very nice man. He doesn’t mind that I’m blind. Life is safe with him too,” she said softly.
“That’s true. Both Brother and my husband are very reliable. Their parents passed away a long time ago, and no one sent them for matchmaking sessions. Sis-in-law, you may have lost your vision but you still have ears and hands. Some people may be blind, but they can still see with their heart. Meanwhile, some may be able to see with their eyes, but they’re as good as blind.”
Mu Wansheng could tell that she was a genuine person.
She smiled and said, “You have a point, Sis-in-law. I may be blind, but I can still work and carry out chores.”
Everyone gathered together for a meal, after which Tang Kangcheng and his wife left.
Mu Wansheng and Tang Yucheng began the next phase of life as the parents of Tang Mianmian.
Mu Wansheng would usually stay home to look after Tang Mianmian while Tang Yucheng goes out to work with the other male villagers. He opted for jobs nearby so that it would be easier for him to look after them.
Although he wasn’t making big bucks, it was enough for them to make ends meet.
Tang Yucheng had also been secretly finding out more about viable treatment options for the removal of scars.
He wanted to let Mu Wansheng have the courage to go out without having to hide her face.
He then heard from a villager that there was a certain type of algae in the lake that could remove scars. However, the algae was not easily obtained.
During his free time, he would dive into the river to look for the algae.
After searching for a long time, his efforts finally paid off and he found the algae. He then let Mu Wansheng try it, only to discover that it really worked.
However, she felt a stinging pain the moment she applied it onto her face, as if she was being slit by a knife.
After several applications, Mu Wansheng began to develop rashes on her face and her flesh started to fester as well. Tang Yucheng hurriedly brought her to see a doctor. Her wounds only began to heal after being put on medication for a period of time.
Hence, their attempt to alter her appearance fizzled out.
Mu Wansheng had forgotten who she was after living in the countryside for a long time.
She had even forgotten her own name.
No one called her Mu Wansheng anymore.
She had already gotten used to her new name as well as to her current lifestyle. She had even begun treating herself as one of them.
However, she would sometimes be jolted awake at night by a sudden, acute pain in her chest.
These were decisions she had made out of her own accord. Hence, she did not regret them.
She did not allow herself to regret them either.
If only life could continue to stay like this.
Mu Wansheng would be contented if her life continued to stay peaceful.
Tang Yucheng met with an accident when he was working in the brickyard. He was transporting some bricks together with his colleagues when a drunk driver lost control of his car and rammed into them.
Although they were sent to the hospital in time and managed to survive, the numerous bricks fell from the truck and landed onto Tang Yucheng’s lower body. As a result, he became impotent and sexually disabled. He would even have to undergo an amputation.
Mu Wansheng was infuriated and resented the drunk driver at the same time that she took pity on Tang Yucheng. She left her daughter in Tang Kangcheng’s care temporarily and rushed to the hospital together with Snowman to take care of Tang Yucheng.
Not only did Tang Yucheng lose his reproductive ability, he even had to be wheeled around in a wheelchair after the surgery. Upon finding out about his condition, he flew into a rage and became a completely different person. There were huge changes in his temperament as well.
Tang Yucheng used to dote on her and would never bear to speak to her harshly. He had never once laid a hand on her either. Yet now that he was in the midst of receiving treatment, he had actually begun scolding Mu Wansheng and berating her. He had even pushed her onto the ground multiple times before.
Well aware that he was terribly upset, Mu Wansheng did her best to bear with his tantrums and tried everything she could to help him get a grip on his emotions. However, he went from bad to worse.
She knew how mentally destructive the amputation was to him, especially since he had become sexually impotent as well.
They had been sleeping separately all this while ever since they got married. They had never even kissed each other before, let alone got intimate. Before the accident, he was planning to consummate his marriage with her after their daughter grows a little older.
Yet, his plans will never come to fruition.
She understood that he was filled with resentment.
But what wrong did I do?
I’ve suffered lots of massive blows before, but I’ve still chosen to resign myself to fate.
The brickyard owner and the drunk driver had compensated him with a total of 1.2 million dollars.
It was a massive sum in the eyes of the poor villagers.
However, Mu Wansheng did not find it to be a large sum. After all, the money was an exchange for the sacrifice that Tang Yucheng had made.
She did not feel in the least bit happy about the money at all.
However, Mu Wansheng finally understood that there were hidden sides to everyone when she overheard her sister-in-law’s remark at the entrance of the hospital ward.
She had always thought that her sister-in-law was a kind and genuine person who was also helpful enough to help her look after her child.
She finally saw her true colors.
“Brother, don’t think about anything else and focus on recuperating. Kangcheng and I are here to take care of everything. However, there’s something I must tell you.”
COMMENT
“What is it?” Tang Yucheng asked.
“I heard that both parties would be receiving an equal portion of the assets in the event of a divorce. Perhaps Kangcheng and I are just overthinking, but we can’t help but feel that Mianmian doesn’t look like you at all. Everyone else says the same thing too. Brother, since you’re not short of money now, shall we get a DNA test done to verify if she’s your daughter?”
“Mianmian just resembles her mother. Sister-in-law, don’t say such things again from now on. Mianmian is my daughter,” said Tang Yucheng.
