Chapter 442 Taking Care of Children

"Xizhou, you are finally willing to bring your wife to see an old man like me."

As she spoke, she carefully examined Su Nanzhi and continued with a look of satisfaction, "She is indeed prettier than that girl Qiange, and her temper seems to be better than Qiange's!"

Su Nanzhi couldn't help but look at Gu Xizhou for help.

Is this Xia Qiange’s biological grandmother?

Gu Xizhou didn't see her look, and a hint of embarrassment appeared on his face at Grandma Xia's teasing.

"Qiange is very good, but I have always treated her as my own sister since I was a child."

He did not refute Grandma Xia's words about Su Nanzhi's excellence, and even acted as if it was a matter of course.

Grandma Xia rolled her eyes in a very unpresentable manner, "Don't play tricks on me, kid. I know Qiange's bad temper. If she wasn't my granddaughter, I wouldn't want to pay any attention to her."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Su Nanzhi and said, "Su girl, my Qiange didn't cause you any trouble, did she?"

After the initial panic, Su Nanzhi finally realized that Gu Xizhou's words of comfort were not a lie.

Grandma Xia really has a good temper and was not angry at her for "stealing" her grandson-in-law.

But she had a good temper and couldn't say bad things about someone else's granddaughter to her face.

"Grandma Xia, Sister Qiange didn't cause me any trouble. She is still quite simple."

However, Grandma Xia didn't buy into her polite words. "You and Xizhou are family, but you just like to say nice things to an old woman like me. I know Qiange's temper."

After saying that, she waved her hand, interrupting what Su Nanzhi was about to say next.

"Let's not talk about that unlucky kid Qiange. Girl Su, I heard from your Grandpa Xia that you took the college entrance examination this year?"

Su Nanzhi nodded and said, "I want to try my luck."

Grandma Xia tsks softly, "I've always said you and Xizhou are truly a family. You say polite things, but your confident expression makes me want to bite you."

Halfway through her conversation, she suddenly moved closer to Su Nanzhi and whispered in a low voice, "Talk to your Grandma Xia and ask if your test results were good this time."

Although they only had contact for a few minutes, Su Nanzhi really liked Grandma Xia, an old lady with a cheerful and open-minded personality.

Seeing this, she couldn't help but lean over to Grandma Xia and whispered, "I think it's pretty good, but the results haven't come out yet. Grandma, you have to keep it a secret for me."

Grandma Xia raised an eyebrow. "I'm the best at keeping secrets. Even the Japanese couldn't pry the words out of me back then. I'll definitely keep it a secret for you."

Su Nanzhi let out a long sigh of relief.

"That's good. It would be bad if I didn't do well in the exam and was laughed at by others."

Grandma Xia patted Su Nanzhi's forehead and said, "You are such a mischievous ghost."

"If you do well in the exam, grandma will prepare a feast for you to show off that I have a wonderful granddaughter-in-law."

Su Nanzhi was a little moved. When she returned to Taipei yesterday, the Gu family, except for Gu Poguan, treated her and Gu Xizhou badly.

Although the Xia family has no blood relationship with Gu Xizhou, they treat him as a relative.

Grandma Xia was even more affectionate to the man who had snatched away her "grandson-in-law".

"Grandma Xia, I will definitely not let you down." Gu Xizhou responded with a smile, and then said seriously, "You must take good care of yourself. You will help Nanzhi host the banquet later."

Grandma Xia agreed cheerfully, "I haven't even had a great-grandson yet. I would have taken good care of myself even if you hadn't said anything."

"Although you are barely good-looking, Su girl is pretty. I wonder how pretty your child will be."

Gu Xizhou looked normal. Looking at Grandma Xia's tired face, he walked up to her and pinched the quilt for her.

"Okay, you still have to look after the child for me then."

Grandma Xia acted angry and slapped his hand hard, "You little bastard, I'm still taking care of your children at my age."

After saying this, she smiled kindly again.

"Forget it, I'll just work harder then."

Su Nanzhi looked at Grandma Xia again, but she had already closed her eyes and fallen asleep.

As the two tiptoed out of the ward, Su Nanzhi couldn't help but ask, "Gu Xizhou, where are you going to find a child for Grandma Xia when the time comes?"

Then she said tentatively, "Or do you plan to adopt?"

After all, Gu Xizhou is infertile now, so if he wants a child, he can only adopt one.

Seeing that Su Nanzhi was thinking about something messy, Gu Xizhou couldn't help but poke her head.

"You're just daydreaming. We only adopted a child because you wanted to."

Su Nanzhi nodded. After all, they had been together for so long, and she believed that Gu Xizhou was not such a dictatorial person.

But...where can I find a child for Grandma Xia when the time comes?

"Grandma Xia is not in good health, maybe..."

Then Gu Xizhou's next sentence interrupted Su Nanzhi's thoughts.

Although the two of them came to Taipei City to visit Grandma Xia, from their conversation just now, Grandma Xia's illness did not seem serious at all, which made her never think that Grandma Xia's health was really not good.

Seeing Gu Xizhou's red eyes at this moment, she realized that Grandma Xia's health was really not good.

"Has Grandma Xia seen any other doctors?"

Su Nanzhi is not the kind of person who would indulge in sadness. The first thing she thought of was to solve the problem.

But as soon as she said it, she realized that she had said nonsense.

As a powerful family like the Xia family, the treatment that Grandma Xia receives will only be the best available in China.

Sure enough, Gu Xizhou nodded and said, "The Xia family has found many domestic doctors for Grandma Xia, but the results are not good."

Su Nanzhi narrowed her eyes and asked, "Have you seen a Chinese doctor?"

Gu Xizhou was also smart. When he heard Su Nanzhi talking about traditional Chinese medicine, he immediately understood what she meant.

“I looked for doctors, but none of them were suitable.”

Now that the Four Olds are being eliminated, traditional Chinese medicine is also considered to be dregs. The Xia family is in a high position of power, and in order not to give the enemy any handle, it is naturally impossible for them to go to the old Chinese doctor in a high-profile manner.

The traditional Chinese medicine doctor introduced by someone familiar was also unable to treat Grandma Xia's illness.

After all, traditional Chinese medicine is in a critical situation now and will not be exposed to outsiders at will.

Su Nanzhi understood the meaning of Gu Xizhou's words, and her eyes lit up.

It just so happened that she knew an old Chinese doctor with real skills.

She immediately leaned in and told him about how she had accidentally met Mr. Xu Wenshu when she was in the army.

Gu Xizhou's eyes lit up.

But he is not a real member of the Xia family after all, so he cannot make a decision easily. He still has to inform Old Man Xia and then let the Xia family decide.
