Ning Hao was initially a bit flustered taking care of the baby, but fortunately, Qiao Jie was there to guide him. He got used to it after a while, and when he changed the baby's diapers again, he was much more skilled.

"Oh, not bad, not bad. You have the potential to be a good husband."

While Jiang Qiao and her mother were cooking, she explained to Wen Jingwan in detail the ins and outs of her relationship with Zhou Songyuan.

"I never expected that Aunt Ningxiang would be involved here. Sigh, I don't even know what to say about this coincidence."

We should try to get along well with them in the future. That family is kind-hearted; they'll help us if they can.

As she spoke, Wen Jingwan turned to Wen Songtao, "Qiao'er, are you planning to visit your grandfather during the summer vacation? I'm really worried about him. That old man is really cautious. Why did he decide to stay somewhere else?"

Jiang Qiao gave a wry smile. "Better safe than sorry. Who is my maternal grandfather? He's the helmsman of the Wen family. What is my paternal grandfather like? Doesn't my maternal grandfather know better? The old man is shrewd. It's better to hide early than to have nowhere to hide when things come to a head."

I've already made plans for the summer vacation. I'll go visit them, but don't tell my uncle a word. If he asks, just say that the old folks have their own ideas and can go wherever they want.

Jiang Qiao had already made up her mind. This time, she would go and see that great-aunt. She wondered how the old lady was doing now. However, she didn't mention this to Wen Jingwan. Since even her grandfather hadn't said anything, she chose to keep quiet as well. There were reasons why the elderly shouldn't talk about these things, so she decided to keep it a secret.

Zhou Songyuan arrived later than Jiang Qiao and the others had expected. According to Dai Chun, they shouldn't come and bother Jiang Qiao and the others, but Zhou Songyuan didn't think so.

"Who is Jiang Qiao, and what is her relationship with us? If we don't go this time, that girl might get angry. Also, Ning Hao, how is that child doing? We haven't seen him in a long time. We should at least check on him for Sister Zhou."

Although Sister Zhou is no longer here, she still has this thought in her heart. We should take care of the children for her. Listen to me, these two people have heard that we are coming. Who knows what they are preparing at home? If we don't go over, wouldn't that be letting the children have been disappointed?

Besides, the doctor doesn't have a better solution for your illness right now. Why don't we go find Jiang Qiao? That girl might know how to treat it.

Dai Chun looked worried. "Don't bother with treatment. It won't kill you anytime soon. At most, you'll just feel uncomfortable. Why waste money? We're not well-off to begin with. If you treat my illness, will my child ever get married?"

Zhou Songyuan glared at his wife and said, "If you're sick, we'll get treatment. What does it have to do with getting a daughter-in-law? Without you as our mother, how do you think our family will survive? You are the most important person. Getting a daughter-in-law is still a long way off."

When Zhou Songyuan arrived, Jiang Qiao and her mother had already finished preparing and were just waiting for him to come.

"Brother Zhou, you've finally arrived! Come in quickly, we'll start eating right away."

Dai Chun, feeling embarrassed, took Wen Jingwan's hand. "Little sister, tell me, I was originally thinking of just spending the night outside with my man and the others, but wouldn't you say we're just causing you trouble by coming here? This man just won't listen—"

Wen Jingwan took Dai Chun's hand and said, "Sister-in-law, you're too kind. When the child was born, my brother and sister-in-law treated our Qiao'er very well. If you don't come over, wouldn't that be disrespecting us? Come inside quickly. Child, are you hungry?"

Zhou Jian shook his head. "Auntie isn't hungry. Where's little Qiao'er?"

Jiang Qiao brought the food out of the kitchen. "Oh, hehe, Uncle, Aunt, Brother, please come in and sit down. I've finished my work here."

I'm telling you, I'll only get angry if you don't come. Tell me, how long has it been since we last saw each other?

Uncle, what meeting are you attending this time?

As Zhou Songyuan walked, he explained, "The fisheries conference was held here, so I brought your aunt here to see a doctor. Girl, do you have any ideas?"

Jiang Qiao looked at Zhou Songyuan in surprise, "What's wrong? What illness does your aunt have that made you come all this way to see her?"

"My whole body aches. I've seen a doctor, and he said it's rheumatism. There's not much that can be done. The doctor said it will get worse and worse in the future."

I was thinking you know a little about medicine, could you take a look at your aunt? Do you have any folk remedies? She needs treatment, the children at home are still so young—”

"Uncle, don't worry. After we finish eating, we'll take a look at my aunt. My grandfather is a senior doctor, so don't fret. He'll definitely have a way to treat her."

Zhou Songyuan stopped and looked at Jiang Qiao with surprise. "Girl, are you telling the truth or not?"

Jiang Qiao smiled and looked at Zhou Songyuan, "Uncle, how do you know it won't work if you don't try? Besides, don't you believe me? Come inside, we'll talk about this after dinner."

Jiang Qiao put down the basin and directly prepared hot water for the three people to wash.

She understands the difficulties of being away from home after a long day out.

"Come on, come on, don't be shy, get on the kang (heated brick bed). We've eaten plenty of the things you send us. It's not easy for you to come all this way, so don't be shy. If you're pretending, you'll be the one who's hungry. Eat as much as you want, make yourselves at home."

Qiao Jie warmly invited everyone to eat, while Ning Hao poured wine for Zhou Songyuan and the others.

"Uncle, Aunt, now that we're here, please don't stand on ceremony. Putting aside our relationship, Jiang Qiao isn't far from you either. It's fate that we've gathered together. I'm using Grandpa Qiao's wine to welcome you."

The Qiao family's hospitality warmed Zhou Songyuan and his wife's hearts. The doctors' inability to cure their illness had made them feel disheartened, but upon arriving at the Qiao family's home, seeing their attitude and the table full of delicious food, they were deeply moved.

They did take care of Jiang Qiao, but the other girl's child took care of them even more. If you really compare them, they would feel ashamed.

"Uncle Qiao, thank you—"

"Xiao Zhou, don't be shy. My family loves lively gatherings. We're so happy you could come. Come on, let's eat."

"Uncle, Aunt, Brother Zhou Jian, please eat more. I've never been polite at your house."

He piled a lot of meat and vegetables into the bowls of the three people before turning to look at Qiao Jie.

"Grandpa Qiao, my aunt seems to have rheumatism. She came here for a checkup. After we finish eating, shall we take a look at her?"

The old man nodded. "Why not? We have a prescription like that at home. We can get it for your aunt to try."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Songyuan felt relieved. Seeing the old man Qiao Jie, he inexplicably believed that the old man was a skilled doctor. Look at him, he looks radiant and healthy, he doesn't look like someone who is almost eighty.
