"I still have to take care of your grandma, so I can't go to the hospital right now."
"What about my dad? Did he go to work?"
Xue Qiaolan glanced at Gu Xueqing and her daughter and nodded softly.
"Yeah, I went to work."
Gu Huai coughed lightly and said.
"Mom, aren't Xiaoqing and Second Aunt here? Ask them to help take care of Grandma. Go to the hospital. The third child is seriously injured. The chances of success in this surgery are very low. The third child may not be able to get off the operating table."
Xue Qiaolan's expression changed, but she stiffened her neck and continued speaking.
"I can't leave"
Gu Huai sighed. Before making the call, he knew that he could not persuade his mother. His mother and the third brother were the same kind of people. They were the kind of people who would give up everything. From the day the third brother left the capital, a crack appeared in their mother-son relationship.
After hearing what Gu Huai said, Gu Xueqing subconsciously grabbed her mother and whispered.
"Mom, let's go check on our third brother. He's all alone, so scared!"
But he was glared at by his mother.
"We still have to make dumplings for your grandma. Who will take care of her if we leave?"
Gu Xueqing whispered to Xue Qiaolan.
"Aunt, my mom and I will take care of your grandma..."
Just as she said this, she was hit by her mother again. She lowered her head in embarrassment, but her mind couldn't help but think of her cool and handsome third brother. Although her third brother was usually cold and indifferent, he was very kind to her. When she didn't do well in the exams in junior high school and was scolded by her parents, her third brother stood up to defend her.
But later, my third brother had a quarrel with his family, and the elders in the family didn't allow them to mention him anymore.
After hanging up the phone, Xue Qiaolan still looked a little dazed. She walked silently to the kitchen, kneaded the dough, and chopped the stuffing, without saying a word from beginning to end.
"Xiaoqing, go and keep grandma company."
She walked to Xue Qiaolan's side, helping her wash the vegetables while speaking.
"Sister-in-law, when Jinghong died, we really can't be blamed. Under the circumstances at that time, if the Gu family didn't cut ties with him, they would have been implicated. Who knew he would be so ignorant and hold a grudge against us now? Actually, if you want to go see him, you can go. He's about to go into the operating room. Even if he gives you a cold shoulder, how long can he keep it for?"
Xue Qiaolan suddenly raised her head and glanced at Gao Hong.
"When he didn't want to stay in the Gu family and insisted on running away to Jiangcheng, I told him that if he left, I would no longer recognize him as my son. So, what happens to him now has nothing to do with me."
She lowered her head and kneaded the dough vigorously, and the surface of the dough made a creaking sound with her strength.
Gao Hong curled her lips. She was one of the people who kicked Gu Jinghong out of the Gu family. After Gu Jinghong was rehabilitated, he retained his position as division commander and was promoted to a higher rank. She felt a little regretful at that time. However, Gu Jinghong was paralyzed, so it was useless to retain his position. So when the Gu family later allowed him to come back but he was arrogant and refused to come back, Gao Hong thought he was ridiculous.
So what if he is a hero, so what if he has outstanding abilities, he still can't live past the age of thirty. If he dies, the only people the Gu family can rely on will be her son and Gu Huai.
"Mom, something bad has happened, something bad has happened"
Gu Xueqing ran in hurriedly.
"Aunt, Mom, something bad has happened. Grandma is missing."
"What?"
They were both startled at the same time and then hurried out.
I went to the old lady's room and saw that there was no one there.
Then the three of them searched the house again, Gao Hong said.
"Will you go back?"
The three of them discussed it and decided to leave Gu Xueqing at home to look after the house in case grandma came back. Xue Qiaolan and Gao Hong went to look for her separately. They first went back to the military compound where the old lady lived to check, but the old lady had not come back.
