The Beautiful Stepmother from the Eighties: Marrying a Factory Director to Raise Kids Chapter 360
Hearing her words, the doctor's face imdiately darkened, and her voice beca much sharper. "Oh, so you do know your son is poisoned? People who didn't know better would think his parents were dead. You didn't even know your child had food poisoning?"
Fang Hui choked, her face flushing red from the scolding.
She hadn't expected this person's words to be so venomous. Embarrassed, she said, "I... I've just been busy with work, and this was an accident. I suspect soone secretly fed my son diseased pork, which caused this."
"Didn't those other children also get sick from eating diseased pork?"
The doctor scoffed coldly. "What nonsense are you spouting? Is the other kids' situation the sa as your son's?"
"Your son was poisoned by eating spoiled bread; his symptoms are different from those children's. Your son's condition is much worse than theirs. The child had barely anything in his stomach. Even when we induced vomiting, he only threw up a little bit of bread mush, and it was sour! I don't know what kind of mother you are. You dress up all fancy, but your child can't even get a proper al?"
"Also, here is the dical report. Food poisoning is only secondary. More importantly, he suffers from severe hypoglycemia, calcium deficiency, and extre physical exhaustion, which led to his fainting. He needs to be hospitalized for observation for a period of ti. Please go pay the fees first."
After saying that, the doctor rolled her eyes at Fang Hui, then walked over to Da Zhuang's mother and her group and started scolding them.
Her scolding was incredibly harsh.
The group of parents, who were usually quite arrogant, were now flushed red from the reprimand, unable to lift their heads.
Si Nian couldn't help but give a ntal thumbs-up to this doctor who dared to speak her mind and scold them.
After a mont, she looked mockingly at the stiff Fang Hui.
"Miss Fang Hui, you haven't forgotten what you just said, have you?"
Fang Hui's face was deathly pale, and she looked extrely embarrassed.
She hadn't expected that her son really hadn't eaten pork, but was poisoned by eating bread.
Usually, her own cooking wasn't very good, and combined with being busy at work, she would just buy all sorts of bread for her son to keep at ho.
Fang Hui had studied abroad, where she had developed the habit of drinking milk and eating bread.
She ate like this herself, and to maintain her figure, she basically stopped eating staple foods.
It was fine before; at least she had hired a nanny to co cook.
But after her money ran out, she rarely hired a nanny and cooked everything herself.
However, her cooking skills were not great, and her son didn't like eating it.
She just assud her son was a picky eater.
Who would have thought...
Fang Hui tightly clutched the dical report in her hand.
eting Si Nian's mocking gaze, her face flushed red. "I-I'm sorry... This, this was a misunderstanding on my part."
Fang Hui laughed awkwardly. "I was just too worried just now. Concern leads to confusion, which is why I was so angry. Teacher Si, please be the bigger person and forgive my offense."
Si Nian sneered. "I'm sorry, Miss Fang, but I'm exactly the kind of petty person who holds grudges."
"If it weren't for the fact that I happened to bring my son to the hospital for a checkup today, you wouldn't have even known your son was in trouble. If you don't thank , that's fine; I don't demand gratitude. I do good deeds to accumulate my own karma. But being falsely accused and bitten back is not sothing I can tolerate. Miss Fang, please kneel. I can accept it."
Fang Hui's face looked awful, her hands trembling with anger. "Teacher Si, you should be forgiving when possible. I've already apologized. If that's not enough, I'll compensate you. We see each other around all the ti, is there really a need to be so aggressive?"
Si Nian refused to yield an inch. "You really know how to joke. Did I suggest the kneeling apology? Wasn't this proposed by Miss Fang herself? Why is it that now you realize you're in the wrong, you're backing out and refusing to honor your word?"
"Is it that hard to admit you're an ungrateful person?"
Fang Hui gritted her teeth in fury.
"Mom..." A weak voice sounded from behind, breaking the awkward situation.
The group turned around, only to see Fang Bowen standing by the hospital room door, his small face deathly pale, holding himself up against the doorfra.
"Don't make my mom kneel. It's all my fault," Fang Bowen said, his eyes red as he looked at Si Nian.
If he hadn't sneaked out to peek yesterday afternoon, his mother wouldn't have misunderstood Teacher Si's family.
It was his fault.
Fang Hui saw him, abruptly turned and walked over.
Under everyone's astonished gazes, she slapped Fang Bowen across the face.
The crowd stood frozen in shock!
Fang Bowen sat on the ground, staring blankly at Fang Hui, motionless for a long ti.
Fang Hui's face was almost distorted with rage. "You still have the nerve to speak? If it weren't for you, would I be this humiliated? How many tis have I told you? Don't sneak out by yourself. You just won't listen, will you? Apologize to your Auntie Si right now!"
Si Nian was also stunned by Fang Hui's actions.
Seeing how Fang Hui usually took pride in her son, she had thought she treated Fang Bowen very well.
She never expected that when the child was in such a serious condition, her first reaction wouldn't be concern, but rather blaming and beating him.
At this mont, Si Nian suddenly understood why Second Child had said Fang Bowen was pitiful.
Being stuck with a mother like this, how could he not be pitiful? He really had the worst luck in the world.
Fang Bowen's small face was swollen, but he stubbornly held back his tears. Just as he was about to open his mouth, Si Nian said, "There's no need. The child did nothing wrong."
Fang Bowen looked at her.
Si Nian looked away; anyone raising a child really couldn't bear to see such a thing.
She looked mockingly at Fang Hui. "It must be hard on Miss Fang, pushing all the bla onto a child just to give yourself a way out. When it cos to being disgraceful, the child really can't compare to you."
Fang Hui's face turned livid with anger.
After Si Nian finished speaking, she didn't spare the group another glance and led the three terrified children away.
The doctor, recovering from her shock, was also furious and rushed forward. "Hey, what kind of parent are you, hitting people! This is too much, are you even human?"
Although things had been delayed today, Si Nian didn't want the trip to be in vain, so she simply had all three children examined.
However, the hospital was about to close, and with tomorrow and the day after being Saturday and Sunday, they would have to wait until Monday to pick up the results.
Si Nian simply took the children ho first.
On the way back, Second Child had a solemn expression. "Mom, did I do sothing wrong?"
Si Nian paused for a mont. "What do you an, did sothing wrong?"
Second Child pursed his lips and said, "It's all my fault for showing off the at skewers and giving at to Fang Bowen, otherwise they wouldn't have blad Mom."
Second Child was filled with remorse, hating himself for loving to show off so much.
Otherwise, when Fang Bowen, Da Zhuang, and the others got sick today, it wouldn't have been blad on Mom and Dad.
Si Nian shook her head. "You didn't do anything wrong, but it's true that we shouldn't interact with them in the future to avoid trouble."
Even though Si Nian said that, Second Child knew it was definitely still his fault.
He suddenly really disliked himself.
Just because life was happy now, he got complacent and showed off everywhere.
He had caused so much trouble for his family.
Seeing him stay silent, Si Nian patted his head.
"Alright, stop thinking about it. It's all in the past."
Second Child still frowned. "Mom, I have another question."
Si Nian: "Go ahead."
Second Child said, "Mom, do you think Auntie Fang is really Fang Bowen's mother?"
Si Nian was taken aback. "Why do you say that?"
Second Child thought carefully and said, "Because I think she's just as bad as my previous stepmother."
Si Nian fell silent.
Fang Hui had moved here alone with her child and never once ntioned her husband. It was only through the passing gossip of the apartnt building's residents that people heard her family was incredibly wealthy, and that her husband was a rich man from Jing City.
They said he ran a business, was always busy, and things of that nature.
Everyone envied her and never gave it a second thought.
No one truly knew what kind of man Fang Bowen's father actually was.
Just as Si Nian was pondering this, a familiar car pulled up and stopped right in front of their group.
