Siheyuan: I am the God of Cooking, and all the birds are crying with envy!

Ouyang Mei suffered torture and humiliation in that new family which was like purgatory.

Every beating, scolding and violation was like a sharp blade, cutting her body and mind into pieces.

Finally, she plucked up the courage and escaped from that terrible place under the cover of night. She ran all the way with only one thought in her mind: to return to Hu Deqing.

When she appeared at the gate of the courtyard in tattered clothes and with tears on her face, Hu Deqing was preparing dinner with the children.

The moment he saw Ouyang Mei, Hu Deqing was stunned. A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by indifference.

"What are you doing here?" Hu Deqing asked coldly.

Ouyang Mei fell to her knees and sobbed, "Deqing, I was wrong, I was really wrong.

I am not living a human life there. They beat me, scold me, and bully me. You are all I have. Please let me stay."

Hu Deqing frowned, with mixed emotions in his heart, but when he thought of what she had done before, he hardened his heart again: "Do you think I will still accept you? You abandoned our family for Ouyang Chun, and now you are desperate and want to come back, isn't it too late?"

Ouyang Mei shook her head in despair: "I know my crime is unforgivable, but I have nowhere else to go.

Children, I am sorry for you, can you forgive me? "

Dani looked at her mother in such a state of disgrace, feeling mixed emotions. She gritted her teeth and said, "Mom, you left us so cruelly back then, and now we have finally started our lives again, why do you come back to disturb us again?"

Ouyang Mei cried and said, "Dani, Mom knows I was wrong. Mom will make it up to me as long as you give me a chance."

At this time, Hu Deqing's youngest son couldn't help crying: "Mom, I miss you so much, please don't leave."

Ouyang Mei crawled towards her youngest son and wanted to hug him, but Hu Deqing pulled her away: "Don't touch the children! You will scare them if you look like this."

Ouyang Mei cried and complained: "Deqing, I was bullied by that old man every day in that home. He would touch me when he was drunk, and his children also treated me like a slave. I really couldn't stand it.

I now understand that only this home is my harbor, and only you and the children are my closest people. "

Hu Deqing snorted coldly: "You brought this upon yourself.

You only had Ouyang Chun in your eyes. For him, you emptied our family. Now that you have been abandoned by your family, you want to come back to us?"

Ouyang Mei knew how feeble her explanation was, but she was still unwilling to give up: "I know I was wrong, and I will spend the rest of my life making up for it.

I can do housework and go out to earn money, as long as it allows me to stay.”

Hu Deqing was silent for a while, then slowly said, "Ouyang Mei, you have completely destroyed the relationship between us. I only want to raise the children and don't want to get involved in these disputes anymore. Go away, I won't let you stay."

Ouyang Mei looked at Hu Deqing's resolute eyes, her heart filled with regret and despair.

She knew that she had made too many mistakes and it was difficult to be forgiven.

Just when Ouyang Mei was about to leave, Ouyang Chun asked someone to bring her a message saying that he was sick in prison and his condition was very serious. He hoped that Ouyang Mei could find a way to save him.

Ouyang Mei was extremely anxious when she heard this: "Deqing, I know I am not qualified to ask you for help, but Chun'er is sick. He is my brother, and I cannot ignore him. Can you help me?"

Hu Deqing said angrily: "Are you still thinking about him?

Haven't you done enough for him? Look at what you are now, it's all because of him! I won't do anything for you anymore."

Ouyang Mei looked at Hu Deqing helplessly, she knew she could no longer change his decision.

She stood up and staggered toward the door.

At the door, she turned around and looked at Hu Deqing and the children, her eyes full of reluctance and regret: "Deqing, children, I am leaving. I hope you can live a good life."

After Ouyang Mei left, Hu Deqing couldn't calm down for a long time.

He knew that although he rejected her, he still had some concerns in his heart. The children also became silent. Although they resented their mother, they also felt bad when they saw her in such a miserable state.

Ouyang Mei ran around trying to find a way to help Ouyang Chun, but she was penniless and had no one to rely on, so she was completely powerless.

She could only wait for news from Ouyang Chun in despair, spending every day in pain and regret.

After careful consideration, Hu Deqing decided to let go of past grudges and work hard to give his children a happy future.

He worked harder and also focused on the education and psychological growth of his children.

As the days passed, Ouyang Mei wandered the streets. Her health was getting worse and worse, and her spirit was on the verge of collapse.

Even the hunchbacked old man dislikes Ouyang Mei because of her appearance.

I don't want her anymore.

The hunchbacked old man dragged Ouyang Mei to her parents and demanded the return of the betrothal gift.

But her parents only earn money and never spend it, and besides, all the money has already been spent, so how can they afford to pay it back?

So, they became rogues.

They said frankly that Ouyang Mei was a member of their family, and even if she died, she would be their ghost.

It is also said that a daughter who is married off is like water spilled.

There is no reason to send her back to her parents' home.

He even said shamelessly that even if the person was sent back, there was no reason to return the betrothal gift.

In short, there are all kinds of rejections.

The hunchbacked old man had no choice but to suffer the loss in silence.

He took Ouyang Mei to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a divorce certificate.

He just threw Ouyang Mei on the street and left without caring whether she was dead or alive.

From then on, Ouyang Mei began to wander in this world.

She used the ground as her bed and the sky as her quilt. She slept under bridges, in dilapidated temples, under roofs and on the streets. When she was hungry, she picked up garbage to eat.

If you don't even have trash, just steal other people's things.

She was caught many times, but some people felt sorry for her and stopped pursuing the matter.

Most people beat her up.

Hu Deqing stepped in to deal with this issue several times.

However, Ouyang Mei had no place to stay, so she had to continue wandering.

There was no other way. For the sake of his three children and their former marriage, Hu Deqing sent Ouyang Mei to a shelter through He Yuzhu's relationship.

The people adopted by the rescue station are all fatherless and motherless people who have no one to rely on.

These people are all supported by the state.

From then on, Ouyang Mei ended her wandering life and had a place to live that was sheltered from the wind and rain.

I can also have a full meal.

Ouyang Mei was no longer crazy. She was silent, with a dull look in her eyes. Sometimes she would sit for a whole day and no one knew what she was thinking.

But in fact, she often thought of the good times she had with Hu Deqing and the smiling faces of the children, and her heart was filled with endless regrets.

One day, Ouyang Mei fainted and was sent to the hospital. In the hospital, after she woke up, she looked at the unfamiliar ceiling and was filled with despair.

She knew that her life might be coming to an end, and her greatest wish was to see Hu Deqing and the children again.

When Hu Deqing learned that Ouyang Mei fainted and was hospitalized, a ripple appeared in his heart.

He hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to take the children to the hospital to visit her.

When they came to the hospital ward, Ouyang Mei saw them, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. She said weakly: "Deqing, children, you are here."

Hu Deqing looked at Ouyang Mei, who was emaciated on the hospital bed, with mixed feelings in his heart: "How are you?"

Ouyang Mei smiled bitterly: "I may not live long.

Deqing, I have one last request from you, can you take good care of our children?"

Hu Deqing was silent for a while, closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, they are my children, I will naturally protect them, love them, and take care of them until they grow up."

Ouyang Mei smiled with relief: "Thank you for coming to see me. I know that I have let you down in this life. I hope that I can make it up to you in the next life."

After saying this, Ouyang Mei slowly closed her eyes and left this world. Hu Deqing and the children stood by the bed, their hearts filled with grief and regret.

They knew that all the past grudges and hatreds had disappeared with Ouyang Mei's departure.

They will continue to move forward with this complex emotion and strive to pursue the happy life that belongs to them.

Hu Deqing lives a peaceful life with his three children.

He lived in the courtyard, in the room of the deaf old lady. Now that the matter has been resolved, he felt guilty about He Yuzhu's trust in him and almost let He Yuzhu's house be taken away.

Hu Deqing felt very guilty about this. He felt ashamed to continue living in the courtyard.

So he found He Yuzhu and asked him to move out of the courtyard.

He Yuzhu did not try to stop him, "Let the past pass, don't hold a grudge against it."

"That's someone else's mistake. You don't have to keep punishing yourself for it."

"I don't blame you. Anyway, my house didn't suffer any damage. I know that was not your intention. You are also a victim. I don't blame you. You shouldn't feel any psychological burden."

"The cotton mill is hiring. If you want to work there, tell me and I can get you in."
