After Being Reborn and Regaining Her Identity, the True Heiress Is Spoiled in the Seventies

Chapter 279

When Zhi Xia gave birth, Guo Momo and her newborn were both rushed for emergency treatment.

It was a boy, weighing 4.7 jin. He didn't cry at all after birth. His whole body was black and blue, with blisters on his chest. His facial features were still blurry, clearly underdeveloped.

Pei JianGuo was stunned. Old Pei came to inquire about Zhi Xia despite his hardship. She didn't hide anything and told him the truth.

The baby was born but the situation was still not good. Whether he would live or die depended on the effect of the emergency treatment.

"Dad, what on earth happened to Momo? Do you know?"

Pei JianGuo was beyond help. As a grown man, he couldn't take the blow. Zhi Xia could only ask Old Pei.

"She...fell down." It was an extremely perfunctory answer. She didn't know whether Old Pei really didn't know or pretended not to know.

She didn't bother asking anymore and found a place to sit, waiting for the result of the emergency treatment.

Before Guo Momo was taken away, Zhi Xia fed her some life water, hoping it would help.

After all, it was a living life, a young girl.

Pei Sheng and Jiang Su also hurried over to inquire about the situation.

Old Pei gave the same answer. Jiang Su regretted and said with such a big belly, how could she have an accident and not been more careful.

An ZhiXian hadn't left. Zhi Xia told him to go back first. There were so many people here already and it was useless. Moreover, he had to work tomorrow. Doctors couldn't rest well.

He didn't insist on staying and only told Zhi Xia to take care of herself.

It wasn't until late into the night that Guo Momo was moved into a ward and the baby survived. But he would need careful attention in the future given his poor health. Even a minor illness could take his life.

As for Guo Momo, the damage to her body this time was too great. She may have trouble conceiving in the future.

But that didn't matter. As long as Zhi Xia was willing and Guo Momo was alive, she could recover.

Old Pei was getting on in years and Pei JianGuo was beyond hope. Jiang Su sighed helplessly, "I'll stay here with Momo. You guys go back and rest if nothing else. Whoever has time tomorrow, come over to take over for me?"

Old Pei looked at Pei JianGuo for a long time before calling out in disappointment, "JianGuo, lying inside is your wife. Look at yourself now. As a man, do you have any sense of responsibility?"

Pei JianGuo shuddered and looked up blankly at everyone, clearly not having heard what was just said.

Jiang Su could only repeat it again. Only then did Pei JianGuo say, "Tomorrow...I'll come."

Although she got what she wanted, the disappointment remained. Jiang Su shook her head helplessly and pulled Zhi Xia aside, "I don't think JianGuo can be counted on. Have Sister Zhang come to help keep watch tomorrow. I still have to work during the day and can only come over at night to take over for a few days."

This time, she didn't pity Pei JianGuo at all. She purely pitied Guo Momo.

The poor girl originally thought marrying Pei JianGuo was a blessing. Now it seemed she had terrible luck marrying such a man.

"I'll let Sister Zhang know. I'll also come over when I have time," Zhi Xia said. "Sister-in-law, don't you feel Momo's fall is a bit strange? If she fell by herself, wouldn't Pei's reaction be a bit much?"

Although Jiang Su was disappointed with Pei JianGuo, she didn't think further about it. "He must have been scared witless. He and Momo always had decent affection. Suddenly something like this happening must have shocked him."

Guo Momo still hadn't woken up so Zhi Xia didn't want to put the blame on Pei JianGuo for now.

Of course, it would be best if this incident had nothing to do with him. No one wanted more chaos in the family.

Zhi Xia supported Old Pei out of the hospital, still feeling his tense muscles.

By the time they returned home, it was past midnight.

The house was pitch black with the children not home. Zhi Xia helped Old Pei inside before going to rest herself.

She was awakened early next morning by the children's voices. She quickly got up and talked to them, also telling Sister Zhang about the situation. Sister Zhang readily agreed to help.

After hurriedly eating, Zhi Xia first went to the hospital.

Hearing the noise, Jiang Su frowned impatiently in the ward. Turning back and seeing it was Zhi Xia, all her anger evaporated. "Why are you here so early? Where's Pei JianGuo?"

They had agreed yesterday that she had work today and Pei JianGuo would come over himself to keep watch. Yet there was still no sign of him now.

"I came to see if Momo was awake and bring over some food. Pei JianGuo still hasn't come?" Zhi Xia frowned.

"Oh!" Jiang Su's attitude indicated the current circumstances. "She still hasn't woken up. What did you bring to eat? I'm really hungry."

Zhi Xia hurriedly scooped rice into a bowl for her while she went to look at Guo Momo herself.

Her face was ghastly white without a trace of color. Fortunately her chest still rose and fell, indicating she was still alive.

Jiang Su wolfed down the rice and asked Zhi Xia, "Zhi Xia, can you stay here and keep watch for a bit if you're free until JianGuo comes to take over? I really have to get to work and don't have time to keep waiting."

"Then you go. I'll stay here and watch," Zhi Xia said.

Jiang Su told her what to pay attention to and to use a spoon to moisten Guo Momo's lips from time to time before hurrying off.

It wasn't until midday that Pei JianGuo finally arrived, still wearing yesterday's rumpled clothes. He looked rather disheveled.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I came late," stubble was sprouting on Pei JianGuo's face, making him look slovenly.

And he came empty-handed, clearly in a rush.

Of course, it wasn't because he had something important to do. After returning home last night, he had felt restless. Bumping into Wang Yue's nagging, he had lain in bed tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep until it was almost dawn before he finally drifted off, waking up only now.

He hadn't washed his face or brushed his teeth, just directly rushing over.

Some people were like that by nature, not something that could be changed by scolding.

Zhi Xia briefed him on what to pay attention to before leaving to return home, as she still worried about whether Pei JianGuo could properly care for the patient. She asked Sister Zhang to hurry over, with Old Pei going along too.

With no one home, Zhi Xia felt the difference having no help with so many kids.

From morning to night, she was exhausted to the point of fuming.

Of course the matter with Guo Momo could not be kept from Pei Yong. It was only later that Zhi Xia learned that Guo Momo fell because of Pei Shuangshuang.

Wang Yue didn't truly want to sever ties when she told them to move out. Seeing their situation getting better and better, she could no longer use money to coerce them otherwise it would only push her son further away.

Guo Momo understood Pei JianGuo's temper. Wang Yue was even clearer about her son's character.

Starting half a month ago, she had coaxed Pei JianGuo back home, then put all kinds of pressure on Guo Momo while Pei Shuangshuang constantly caused trouble.

Finally, Guo Momo couldn't stand it anymore and talked back a few times. Pei Shuangshuang pushed her to the ground and she started heavily bleeding on the spot.

Old Pei had wanted to smooth things over but if not for Guo Momo waking up and calling the hospital and police for help, Zhi Xia and the rest would still be kept in the dark.
