Again, relying on his father's prestige in the town, Feng Haidong successfully found a minivan that was about 80% new.

Then, he, his parents, his wife, and his niece Lu Yue headed to the provincial capital.

In fact, Feng Haidong's city is very close to the provincial capital; the two cities are right next to each other. So, it would only take Feng Haidong and his group at most two hours to drive to the provincial capital.

Feng Haidong did not instruct the driver to drive fast, but instead asked the driver to drive as smoothly as possible.

This way, the parents and wife sitting in the car won't feel too much of a bumpy ride.

Lu Yue sat in the car, occasionally leaning over her aunt's side, looking at the scenery outside the window with curiosity.

This was the little girl's first time visiting the provincial capital.

For Lu Yue, everything outside was full of surprises.

However, Lu Yue also knew that this trip was to accompany her aunt, so the little girl was very quiet the whole way, just sitting next to her aunt, and occasionally gently touching her aunt's hand, as if to comfort her.

There were no unexpected incidents on the way, and the car arrived in the provincial capital smoothly.

Feng Haidong gave the driver directions, asking him to drive to the place where he had arranged to meet his third cousin.

When the car arrived at the agreed location, Feng Haidong saw an ambulance parked on the side of the road in the distance.

When Feng Haidong and his group stopped their car, Liu Fenlin, the third cousin, wearing a white coat, immediately got out of the ambulance.

When Liu Fenlin saw Feng Haidong and his group, she quickly ran over to greet them: "Auntie, Uncle, you've arrived. Haidong, help Wanling into our hospital's ambulance. We'll go to the hospital first."

Feng Haidong responded, first putting his wife into the ambulance, and then letting his niece Lu Yue go with her aunt.

He then went back to the van and gave the driver some money.

The driver initially refused, saying, "Brother Haidong, I can't take this money. I came here to help Uncle Feng. If I take your money, my dad will definitely scold me when I get home."

Feng Haidong smiled and stuffed the money into the other person's hand, saying, "Take this money. When you get home, just say it was given to you by your Uncle Feng. If your uncle scolds you, just tell him to wait until your uncle gets back and scolds him."

Finally, the driver accepted the money, said goodbye to Feng Haidong and the elderly couple, and drove away.

Feng Haidong and his entire family were taken to the ambulance.

Along the way, Liu Fenlin chatted a lot with her aunt and Lu Wanling.

Lu Yue stood beside her aunt, sizing up Liu Fenlin, who was wearing a white coat. The young girl thought that although her aunt was wearing a white coat, she seemed to be a very kind person.

Liu Fenlin quickly noticed the little girl staring at her and asked with a smile, "Hello, what's your name? How old are you?"

Lu Yue wasn't intimidated at all and answered clearly, "My name is Lu Yue, and I'm almost five years old."

Liu Fenlin laughed and said, "Haha, what a good child, Wanling, your little niece is so smart."

Lu Wanling said, "She is very smart, but no one in the family can take care of her, so I had no choice but to bring her here, which is a trouble for my third sister."

Liu Fenlin said, "What are you saying, Wanling? What do you mean by causing trouble or not? We're all family."

Then Liu Fenlin said to Lu Yue, "Lu Yue, why don't you go to your aunt's house? There's an older sister there. You can play with her, okay?"

Lu Yue listened and thought for a moment before saying, "Okay."

Lu Wanling, standing nearby, said, "Won't this disturb the child's studies?"

Liu Fenlin said, "It's okay, she's a sophomore in high school now, so her studies aren't too stressful."

Then Liu Fenlin looked at Feng Haidong and suddenly said, "Haidong, your niece really admires you. She has read several of your articles in Reader's Digest and really likes them. She even told her classmates that the author is her uncle."

Upon hearing this, Feng Haidong smiled and said, "Rujuan also likes literature?"

Liu Fenlin said, "You know, most of the students these days have some kind of literary dream. When your niece first brought the book home for us to read, I didn't think it was written by you. It was your brother-in-law who saw the name and said, 'Could it be you?' Later, I called you to confirm, didn't I?"

Feng Haidong said, "Yes, I was wondering too, how come my third sister and brother-in-law still have time to read readers?"

Liu Fenlin said, "Your brother-in-law and I really don't have much time. We can't read newspapers and magazines carefully even if we occasionally flip through them. It's not that your niece likes them. We even subscribe to Reader's Digest for her. She really liked the articles you wrote and showed them to your brother-in-law and me."

At this point, Liu Fenlin said, "Haidong, let me tell you something. When you meet at noon, if your niece makes any unreasonable requests, don't agree to them."

Feng Haidong was both amused and exasperated by his third cousin's words: "What unreasonable demands could there be?"

Liu Fenlin said, "You don't understand. Their school has some kind of literary group. I'm scared. They want you to participate in their literary group's activities. There will be a bunch of young kids having fun, and you won't be able to compete with them."

His third cousin's words only made Feng Haidong more curious.

In his previous life, Feng Haidong was so burdened by life's hardships that he didn't have the opportunity to properly develop his love for literature.

There was even less opportunity to get to know them, especially now that my third cousin's niece is in high school or college.

So hearing what his third cousin said piqued Feng Haidong's curiosity, and he wanted to see what kind of understanding and pursuit high school students in the provincial capital would have in literature.

The ambulance quickly drove to the hospital where my third cousin was.

The third cousin led Feng Haidong to register and be admitted to the hospital. Then she ran around helping to contact various departments and even found two obstetrics and gynecology experts who had been rehired by the provincial hospital to examine Lu Wanling.

To avoid disturbing his wife, Feng Haidong took his niece, Lu Yue, and accompanied his parents to their medical check-up first.

By the time Feng Haidong returned with his parents after completing part of the project, his wife's side was also almost finished.

Liu Fenlin said, "We've arranged some inspections for you this afternoon. We'll go back for lunch first; Lao Yue has already prepared a meal at home and is waiting for us."

Upon hearing this, Feng Haidong immediately said, "Why are you still making your brother-in-law cook at home? You should have said so earlier, sister. If you had, we could have just eaten out. Your brother is earning some money now, so it's better to save your brother-in-law from working so hard."

Liu Fenlin said sternly, "Feng Haidong, you're making money now, you're a big boss, so you look down on us eating at home, right?"

Feng Haidong quickly said, "No, how could I look down on him? My brother-in-law's skills are so good, how could I dare to look down on him? I just feel that my brother-in-law works too hard."

Feng Chungu said, "Your third sister is right. Eating out is so expensive. Don't think about eating out just because you've earned a little money. Wanling will need money later on this trip to the provincial capital, and you can't reimburse her. You should save your money for Wanling later."

Liu Fenlin said, "Your uncle is right. Feng Haidong, you should keep the money safe for your wife and children."

Feng Haidong naturally smiled and nodded in agreement.

Then the whole family left the hospital and went to my third cousin's house.
