Rebirth: I Farm in Hell to Live a Lifelong Life

"I'm sorry, Yueyue, for making you worry."

Li Xiao breathed a sigh of relief only after he had examined his mother.

"We are all friends. Why would we say these things to each other? We are relieved that you are okay."

Xu Qingyue wet a towel and helped Li Xiao wipe the blood off her head carefully. She also cleaned the blood on her body from protecting her mother and comforted her:

"Don't be too sad. The doctor said that Auntie will wake up soon."

"I know. Don't worry. I'm not sad. I'm used to it."

"It's just that I may have had too many good days in school. When I walked in and saw him tying my mother to the bed with a belt and beating her, I had only one thought in that moment, which was to perish with him."

Li Xiao still feels chest tightness and shortness of breath when she recalls that scene. Her eyes are red and she says in a hoarse voice:

"You know, Yueyue, how hard I have to control myself to remember that I am a human being. But he is not a human being, he is a devil, and he doesn't want us to be human beings either. He wants to drag us to hell together."

Xu Qingyue hugged her tightly with heartache and stroked her hair which was wet and sticky with blood, tears and sweat.

"It's all over, it's all over. There's only half a year left. Let's bring Auntie out to live with us. When you get admitted to university, you can take Auntie away with you."

As they were talking, Jiang Zixi and Han Xixue also came to the ward. They also brought some clean clothes for Li Xiao and showed concern for her. They carefully checked her body and made sure that she only had a wound on her head before they felt relieved.

"It's a good thing we're all here, otherwise how would you have gotten through the night with your thin arms and legs? You wouldn't even have had the energy to wipe your aunt's body."

Jiang Zixi is a person with a sharp tongue but a soft heart. She was the most excited when she saw Li Xiao bleeding, but now that he is safe and sound, she is the first one to be harsh in her words.

Li Xiao also knew her temper and was not annoyed:

"It's all thanks to the young lady that she brought me a change of clothes, otherwise I would have stunk like a beggar."

Han Xixue walked up and handed the toiletries she bought to Li Xiao:

"Sister Xiaoxiao, is Auntie okay? We can all stay with you tonight."

Li Xiao was so moved that she almost cried again:

"It's okay. Thanks to you guys tonight."

At this time, Xu Qingyue carefully noticed that Li's mother on the bed had made some movement, and hurriedly greeted everyone: "Auntie is awake."

Li Xiao quickly wiped her tears and walked to the bedside, holding her mother's hand: "Mom, you're awake, are you thirsty?"

"I thought I wouldn't be able to see you this time."

"What are you talking about? The doctor said that there is nothing serious wrong with you, you are just a little weak and too thin."

"Where's your father?"

When Li's father was mentioned, Li Xiao's face changed:

"Why are you still mentioning that beast? Hasn't he hurt you badly enough?"

"After all, he is your father. What about others?"

Li Xiao was somewhat annoyed at his mother's incompetence and said angrily:

"I called the police and asked them to arrest him."

After hearing this, Li Xiao's mother looked anxious. She nervously struggled to sit up from the bed and grabbed Li Xiao:

"How can you call the police? Tell them to let him out."

"If I don't call the police, he will beat you to death."

"Even if you beat me to death, that's my fate. I don't care. You have to let your father out, otherwise you are unfilial."

"mom!"

"If he goes to jail, what will you do, my son? You can't bear the reputation of being unfilial. You still have to go to college. You are the pride of our Li family. Didn't you say you still want to go into politics? I heard that if someone in the family is in jail, the child can't go into politics."

"Mom, I can do something else if I don't go into politics, and I can still live a good life. When the time comes, I will take you over, and we won't have to endure his anger anymore."

"No, I can't leave your father. He was finally willing to marry me. I can't send him to jail just because he beat me. He also said that he would accompany me to the beach to watch the sea when I get old."

"Mom, how long are you going to keep deceiving yourself? Look at him now."

"If you don't let your father come out, don't recognize me as your mother. I don't have a daughter like you."

Li Xiao felt exhausted both physically and mentally, and she should have expected her mother to remain stubborn.

Seeing that the two were still arguing, Xu Qingyue quickly stepped forward to support Li's mother and persuaded her:

"It's okay, Auntie. The police just took Uncle away for questioning. It was mainly because Uncle drank a lot of alcohol. The police were afraid that Uncle would do something bad again. They just wanted to make sure he was safe first."

At the same time, he signaled with his eyes to Jiang Zixi and Han Xixue to persuade Li Xiao to go out of the room to get some fresh air.

Seeing that Xu Qingyue seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw, Li's mother hurriedly asked:

"Then he won't go to jail, right? If he does, how will my mother and I survive?"

As she said this, she began to sob sadly.

Xu Qingyue could only patiently comfort her:

"The police usually mediate family conflicts first and criticize and educate your uncle. If you think your uncle can change and forgive him, he will be able to come back in due time."

"Really? If I forgive him he will come back?"

"Yes, the most important thing is that you have rested well and have energy now. The police may come to understand the situation tomorrow."

"Okay, okay, thank you, little classmate. You must be Xiaoxiao's friend, right?"

"Yes, Auntie, I am Xiaoxiao's friend. I am going out to persuade Xiaoxiao now. Auntie, you should have a good rest first."

After finally convincing Li Xiao's mother, Xu Qingyue walked out of the ward with a headache. She now understood the harm of being in love, and she wanted to be together even if it meant risking her life.

As they walked out the door, Han Xixue came up to them and asked, "How is Auntie?"

Xu Qingyue walked over to Li Xiao and sat down resignedly: "At least I persuaded her to go to sleep."

Li Xiao said angrily:

"She said she did it all for me. How could she not divorce me for my sake? Who can she blame for the way she lives? It's all her own cowardice."

But Xu Qingyue knew that no matter what Li Xiao said, it was all out of love and love for his mother.

"Okay, don't be angry. Don't bother with the patient."

"You've had a hard day today," Jiang Zixi consoled him, "I asked my dad to arrange a large ward for us. It will be easier for the four of us to take turns taking care of him."

"Yes, Sister Xiaoxiao, go to bed early."

Li Xiao rolled his eyes at the three of them and asked:

"Why are you three staying here? You should go home to be with your parents on New Year's Day. Don't make trouble for me here."

"What a joke! I'm so useful, how can I be a nuisance?"

"I am also useful."

"Okay, okay, you are all useful. Can you go home, young lady? We really don't need so many people here."

Finally, Xu Qingyue stood up and said:

"We don't need so many people here. I'm not going home anyway, so I'll stay with Xiaoxiao and Auntie. You two can come back tomorrow morning."

Li Xiao also echoed:

"Yueyue is right. You two can come back tomorrow morning. You will feel more at ease knowing Yueyue is with me. Otherwise, Yueyue will stay in the hotel by herself."

"Ok."

In the end, the two of them walked back unwillingly, looking back every few steps.

Suddenly, Jiang Zixi stopped, turned around and shouted to Xu Qingyue and Li Xiao: "Happy New Year!"

Han Xixue looked at the angry eyes of the nurse next to her and tugged at the corner of Jiang Zixi's clothes guiltily.

Li Xiao smiled helplessly and responded in a low voice: "Happy New Year, be safe."

Xu Qingyue hung on Li Xiao's shoulder as if she had no bones, watching Jiang Zixi pull Han Xixue's hand and run away quickly.

All the past is a prologue; all the future is worth looking forward to.

May you be content and motivated, gentle and firm, not dwell on the past, not fear the future, and eat well and sleep well while waiting for the flowers to bloom. The sun will eventually cover your way and the road ahead will always be glorious.

May love be worry-free, may you be worry-free.
