Xiang Pengfei had disliked Lin Dongzhe for a long time, but after not seeing him for the past few days, he didn't dislike him anymore. He nodded and said, "Okay! Let's go! By the way, ask Xiaoting if she's still going?"

Lin Dongzhe said, "Stop bothering her. Why are you running back and forth? She's pregnant and experiencing morning sickness. Don't let her throw up in your car!"

"All right!"

The two got into the car and headed straight for the hospital.

Upon arriving at the hospital and entering the ward, Xiang Pengfei saw that Zhuang Tunan's grandparents were also there. He quickly greeted the two elderly people, saying, "Grandma, Grandpa, why did you come all this way?"

Old Zhuang said, "Today is the opening day of Zhenbei's newsstand. We originally wanted to go to your house to thank Chaoying for helping Zhenbei, but Zhenbei told me that your aunt was hospitalized, so we came to the hospital to visit her!"

Let me know before you come, and I'll pick you up!

"No need, the bus is convenient enough, I don't need you!"

Xiang Pengfei then took out his marriage certificate from his pocket, handed it to his grandfather, and said, "Grandpa, look, this is my marriage certificate. I'm married!"

Old Zhuang took the marriage certificate and looked at it, saying, "Hmm, not bad, Pengfei has grown up. Only Tu Nan is left! Sigh, if it weren't for his leg, he probably would have gotten married this year! Then it's Zhen Nan and Zhen Bei, but unfortunately, that brat Zhen Nan has gone astray. It makes me both angry and worried that something bad might happen to him!"

Grandma Tunan said, "What are you worried about? Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Let him walk the path he chose! When he realizes his mistake, he'll know who treated him well!"

"well!"

Old Zhuang sighed and returned the marriage certificate to Xiang Pengfei.

Xiang Pengfei then asked Zhuang Chaoying, "Uncle, how is my aunt? Has she had lunch yet?"

Zhuang Chaoying said with a smile, "That was pretty good. She ate a steamed bun and half a bowl of millet porridge, and now she's asleep!"

"Oh, it's good that she can eat. She'll recover faster. Once she's discharged, I'll have my aunt sit at the head table!"

Grandma Tu Nan, perhaps feeling that Xiang Pengfei wasn't listening, said, "What? You let your aunt sit in the head seat, and we older folks can sit in the side seats!"

Xiang Pengfei immediately realized the old lady had gotten the wrong idea and quickly said, "No, if everyone's the chairman, then doesn't the chairman have eight seats?"

"Eight seats aren't enough, are they? What about your second uncle's family of three? Plus Tu Nan and Xiao Ting, how can that be enough?"

"How about Second Uncle doesn't sit in the head seat? Let him sit with the other guests!"

"Why should that be? No way! Only your second uncle can sit at the head table, and your eldest aunt has to share a seat with someone else!"

Old Zhuang looked at his wife and said, "What's wrong with you? Didn't you come to see your daughter-in-law? We agreed not to argue, so why are you arguing again?"

"Dad, it's not that I started this argument, it's that this kid can't distinguish between what's important and what's not, he doesn't respect the hierarchy!"

For some reason, Xiang Pengfei suddenly said, "I'm getting married for my aunt. She's helped me for so many years, and the only person I want to repay is her. If she doesn't become the chairman, I'd rather not hold a banquet!"

Sitting next to the hospital bed, Zhuang Chaoying couldn't sit still any longer and said angrily, "Pengfei, how dare you talk to your grandparents like that? Don't you have any respect for the elderly?"

“Uncle, I’m holding this banquet to bring good luck to my aunt. My aunt has suffered so much in her life. She was finally about to get through it all when Tu Nan injured his leg and she got into a car accident. I’m so sad! I want to help my aunt, but my abilities are limited. I can only do my best to make her happy and not let her suffer anymore.”

As he spoke, large tears began to stream down Xiang Pengfei's face.

Perhaps it was Pengfei's filial piety that moved Zhuang Chaoying, who said to Grandma Tu Nan, "Mom, just listen to Pengfei! This child has had a hard time getting by, and he finally wants to do his best to show filial piety. We can't hold him back!"

At this moment, Old Zhuang seemed to soften and said to his wife, "Alright! We're old and can't take charge anymore. Listen to the younger generation's arrangements and don't be stubborn!"

Grandma Tunan might still be a little resentful, but she couldn't resist everyone's pleas for her. Although she didn't say anything more, her face was still gloomy, making people uncomfortable to look at.

At this moment, Lin Dongzhe said, "Grandma, I've started a trading company and will be importing a batch of fruits from the south. I'll send you some that you've never tried before!"

Grandma Tu Nan was overjoyed to hear that she could get a good deal, and immediately said, "Really? That's wonderful! My granddaughter and son-in-law are so kind! Send me extra supplies later. I'll open a small shop next to the Zhenbei Newsstand and earn some extra pocket money!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Dongzhe knew that the old man was greedy and couldn't get enough of a bargain. But once he had said it, he couldn't take it back, so he could only force a smile and agree, though he probably wanted to curse him in his heart.

At this moment, Huang Ling, who was lying in the hospital bed, opened her eyes and said as soon as she saw the elderly couple, "Dad, Mom, you've come! Thank you for coming all this way!"

Grandpa Tunan smiled and said, "It's alright, it's alright, we're all family, it's only right that I come to see you!"

Xiang Pengfei quickly opened the marriage certificate for Huang Ling to see and said with a smile, "Auntie, look, I got my marriage certificate!"

Huang Ling smiled and said, "Good, good, Pengfei has grown up and is about to start a family. I'm relieved now. I don't have to worry about you failing at everything. Just treat Yuxiang well!"

"I understand, Auntie!"

Lin Dongzhe quickly said, "Mom, I've come to see you too. I'm a little late, I'm sorry!"

"It's alright, it's alright, it's good that you're here. That's better than anything else. By the way, have your parents left? Did they go to the south?"

“My parents aren’t leaving. Xiaoting told me that my mom is going to take over Ming’s mom’s small shop and turn it into a breakfast shop. My dad also bought a 200-square-meter empty yard and wants to turn it into a supermarket. I also quit my job and started a trading company to supply my dad with goods. With resources shared, it’s hard not to get rich!”

"Great! I can chat and laugh with Song Ying again. We'll have each other as companions and spend our old age together. That's incredibly wonderful!"

Grandma Tu Nan said, "Your in-laws are so much better! You can discuss everything, and everyone gets along so well! Unlike ours..."

Upon hearing this, Zhuang Chaoying knew that the old lady was about to say something inappropriate again, so she quickly tugged at the old lady's sleeve to stop her from speaking carelessly.

Perhaps the old lady knew that she shouldn't say anything at this time, so she stopped talking to avoid upsetting Huang Ling.

"Auntie, we've come to see you!"

Two young people appeared at the door of the ward, a man and a woman. The man was dressed in a well-fitting suit, with a tie and glasses, and looked very refined. The girl was wearing a cotton dress, had permed hair, and also wore glasses. She looked young and pretty.

As soon as Huang Ling saw the two of them, she said, "Oh, Ziyao, Zijuan, what brings you here? You're both so busy with work, you didn't need to make a special trip!"

Huang Ziyao handed a bouquet of roses to Huang Ling and said, "Aunt, you can't say that. Even if we're very busy, it would be inappropriate for us juniors not to come when something so serious has happened to you!"

The girl looked at Huang Ling lying on the hospital bed, her eyes reddening and tears quickly flowing down her cheeks. She walked closer to the bed, looked at Huang Ling with a pout, and said, "Auntie, why are you suffering like this? It breaks my heart!"

As she spoke, Huang Zijuan rested her head on Huang Ling's chest and began to cry beside her.

Huang Ling stroked Huang Zijuan's hair and said, "Silly girl, don't cry! Your aunt is fine now, isn't she? It's alright!"

Huang Zijuan looked up and said, "Auntie, my parents are buying plane tickets to go back to China. They'll come to see you tomorrow. They're so worried about you and say they want to take you to the United States for treatment!"

"No need, Auntie's just a minor ailment, she'll be fine in a few days. Tell them not to worry!"

"Auntie, we're all family, how could we not worry?"

Huang Ling asked, "Zijuan, who told you I was hospitalized?"
