After the divorce, my second-married military officer husband doted on me

"Even if you have no appetite, you should eat something. You are too weak." Zhou Xiaowei's mother looked at her son's increasingly thin face, and her heart ached.

God, please stop torturing my son.

He hasn't had a good night's sleep or a full meal in the past 20 years. How can you bear to torture him any further?

Let me bear all the suffering from now on alone, and don’t torture my poor son anymore.

"Cough cough..." Zhou Xiaowei coughed lightly a few times, and his mother hurriedly helped him to breathe.

Zhou Xiaowei pretended to be fine, "Mom, I feel much better now. Don't worry too much. I promised you that I would accompany you to find your father and sister."

His mother forced a smile and said, "Mom knows that you always keep your word and you will never break it.

Come, drink this millet porridge first.

This is what Sister Hong made specially for you early in the morning. You must not let her kindness go to waste."

Zhou Xiaowei really had no appetite, but in order not to worry his mother, he forced himself to drink half a bowl despite the discomfort.

But he really couldn't eat eggs.

His throat felt like it was burning, and swallowing porridge felt like it was being cut by a knife.

Seeing that he really couldn't eat, his mother didn't force him.

“Then lie down for a while, and we’ll leave when you’ve recovered your strength.

I'll go help out on Hong Sao's farm later. I can't stay at her house for the next two days and eat and drink for free."

Zhou Xiaowei nodded and said, "You go ahead. I'll be fine on my own."

……

Ten minutes later, as soon as his mother left, he coughed violently several times, and then spurted out a mouthful of blood...

puff……

The bright red blood sprayed onto the ground, and the bright red color made Zhou Xiaowei's eyes red.

"Mom, I'm sorry!"

"My body may not be able to make it to Kyoto.

The journey is so long. How long will it take us to get there if we just walk?

I'm afraid I'll never see my father and sister again in this lifetime."

……

Sister Hong was weeding in the fields. Seeing Zhou Xiaowei's mother coming to help, she hurriedly said with a smile, "Sister, why are you here? Go back quickly, your son is still sick!"

You should go back and take care of him. I don’t have much work here and I’ll finish it in a short while.

By the way, have you eaten the breakfast I left for you?

My family is not well off and I can’t afford good food, so you guys just have to make do with what you have.”

Zhou Xiaowei's mother said gratefully, "No, Sister Hong, you have done very well.

If you hadn't taken me and my son in, my son's fever might still be here!"

Zhou Xiaowei's mother had already changed into a set of coarse linen clothes given by Hong Sao, and the dirt on her face and body had been washed off.

Her face looked exactly like Zhou Yuru's, except that the hair on both sides of her forehead was much whiter.

Over the years, she was used as a test subject for drug trials and had taken countless strange pills, but surprisingly, she was fine.

But Zhou Xiaowei was not so lucky. He was injected with a lot of poisons since he was a child, and his body reacted greatly. It was a miracle that he could survive to this day.

Sister Hong waved her hand indifferently, "You're welcome, who doesn't have problems when they go out?

We are all women, so if we encounter problems, we will help.

It’s a pity that my family is poor and I can’t help you much.

My husband also went to the city to work and will only come back during the Chinese New Year.

My son fell ill two years ago and died because he had no money for treatment.

So when I saw you and your son yesterday, I felt like I was seeing my old self.

At that time, in order to pay for my son's medical treatment, I picked up trash in the city and sold it, and even drew blood to sell, but that little money was just a drop in the bucket.

In order to save my son, my husband secretly sold his kidney without my knowledge, but he still couldn't save my son.

So, big sister.

Our village is backward, and your son's illness needs to be treated in a large hospital in the city. We can't delay here."

Zhou Xiaowei's mother nodded with tears in her eyes, "I know, I will take him away when he recovers his strength.

Once his father is found, the child can be saved."

She told Hong Sao yesterday that her son's father was working in the city, and they were coming to the city to look for relatives and seek medical treatment.

She knew that deceiving others was wrong, but their identities were special. If others knew that they had escaped from northern Myanmar, no one would be willing to take them in.

My son is too weak to travel now.

Another thing is, they escaped penniless. If they couldn't find their son's father, then the son...

Zhou Xiaowei's mother was heartbroken. Whenever she thought of the consequences, her heart ached like a knife.

They finally escaped, but the journey was long and it was impossible for them to find their son's father even on their own two feet.

I haven't seen him in 20 years. I don't know if he has remarried. Does he still remember her...?

……

Several hours passed.

Ten thousand meters in the air, Huo Jiantao and his crew's plane were getting closer and closer to Jiang Nuan's dream.

Huo Jiantao's face was solemn. "Nuannuan, are you sure you remembered your dream correctly? That mother and son are in the village ahead?"

Jiang Nuan was also very nervous, "Dad, I remember it very clearly, that's what the woman said in the dream.

She also said that the boy was dying.

I don't know why they appear in my dreams.

But nothing like this has ever happened before, and what they did in my dream was too real.

The woman's crying was so miserable.

The boy was so sickly and skinny that he would fall down at the slightest gust of wind.

When I see them sad, I cry too.

Dad, if there is no connection between this, how can it feel so real to me?

And why is it such a coincidence that they escaped back from northern Myanmar?"

Huo Jiantao didn't doubt Jiang Nuan's words. His eyes were red and he choked up, "Dad doesn't disbelieve you, Dad is panicking.

If they are really in that village, how do you think Dad should face them?

If your mother was really switched, how painful would she have been all these years?

Dad can’t imagine how she and your brother survived these 20 years of torture?

And how did you escape from that brutal place in northern Myanmar?"

"Nuannuan, this is even more cruel than her leaving you behind, you know?"

Of course Jiang Nuan knew it, but it was precisely because she knew it that she had to face it.

"Dad, it's not your fault.

If mom was really switched, she wouldn't blame you.

She blamed the culprit who tore our family apart.

Once you find your mother and brother, no matter how painful it is, you must face it bravely.

They are still waiting for you to avenge them!"

Huo Jiantao stared intently at the distance as the plane flew lower and lower. "Yes, if the truth is really as you dreamed, Dad will avenge them even if he dies."
