My daughter-in-law is in the hospital, and she's already feeling very unwell. I can't let her feel bad too.
The patient needs to remain cheerful.
A bad mood is detrimental to recovery.
"Don't worry!" Lu Anguo patted his chest and assured him.
After all, he was just an "unofficial staff member," so even if he made a mistake, it could be easily rectified.
But Bai Xiuhui, her mother-in-law whom she has lived with for several years, cannot be allowed to slip up easily, otherwise it will not be so easy to make amends.
"Honey, don't forget to cough then," Lu Anguo added.
"Of course I won't forget!"
The two brought chicken soup to ward 307.
"Crescent Moon!" Upon seeing Su Yueya, Bai Xiuhui rushed over, her eyes filled with heartache.
My daughter-in-law was already very thin, and after being sick like this, she looks even thinner and more pitiful.
"Lu Zhengjun, how do you take care of people?" Bai Xiuhui was quite dissatisfied with her son.
Can't they take care of people or call for help?
If you can't take good care of yourself, just tell her, and she'll be willing to come to the hospital to take care of Su Yueya!
"Mom, Zhengjun has taken very good care of me," Su Yueya quickly said in defense of Lu Zhengjun.
She feels extremely embarrassed whenever she sees Lu Anguo and Bai Xiuhui.
"Tch, him? Do you think I don't know his own limitations? Let's not talk about him anymore. Come on, Crescent Moon, Mom made you some nourishing soup. Drink it while it's hot, you have to drink at least two bowls!" Bai Xiuhui said.
Lu Anguo placed the thermos in place and asked Lu Zhengjun to take out the bowl.
After such a long hospital stay, some simple tableware was provided in the ward, making it more convenient to get meals and eat. It can also be washed in the bathroom.
"Dad, let me pour it," Lu Zhengjun said.
Lu Anguo didn't argue with him.
As soon as the lid of the thermos was opened, the aroma of chicken soup filled the entire ward.
"It smells so good!" Su Yueya exclaimed, then immediately took Bai Xiuhui's hand. "Mom, thank you for your hard work. I'm sorry to have made you and Dad worry during my hospitalization."
Su Yueya's obedient appearance softened Bai Xiuhui's heart.
What a lovely daughter-in-law!
However, she wasn't really worried, since her good son hadn't told her at all!
"It's alright, Crescent Moon. What's so hard about Mom making soup? As long as you drink a couple more bowls, Mom will be happy." Bai Xiuhui looked at Lu Zhengjun, her smile immediately disappearing. "Hurry up, is it really that hard to serve soup? Is this how you usually take care of people?"
Lu Zhengjun: "..."
Surely not?
Su Yueya gasped, sensing that her mother seemed very unhappy, and she no longer dared to speak up for Lu Zhengjun.
"Mom, I can drink three bowls! I can drink three bowls!" Su Yueya raised her hand to promise.
"Alright, it's all yours!" Bai Xiuhui's smile returned when she looked at her daughter-in-law again.
Lu Zhengjun: "..."
Did he learn how to change his expression?
Lu Zhengjun hadn't told his parents the real reason Su Yueya was hospitalized this time; he simply said that Su Yueya wasn't feeling well.
Therefore, in Bai Xiuhui and Lu Anguo's minds, Su Yueya is still the Su Yueya who has lost some of her memories.
The soup was served, and Su Yueya held the bowl and sipped it slowly.
While drinking, he praised Bai Xiuhui for making such delicious soup.
"Mom, this soup smells so good!"
"You must have been stewing this for a long time. Thank you for your hard work."
"I'm fine. The doctor said I can be discharged in two days, and all the test results are normal."
Bai Xiuhui nodded, only to be suddenly poked on the shoulder by her husband.
What are you doing?
Lu Anguo covered his mouth with his hand, pretending to cough, and then kept blinking.
Bai Xiuhui understood instantly.
"Cough—cough—"
Talented actors are now available.
Su Yueya was still "reporting" on her physical condition when she saw her mother-in-law suddenly cough, and she was immediately stunned.
With her little mouth open, she forgot to drink the soup.
This is……
Intentional?
Since Bai Xiuhui is not Zhang Cuihua, there is no way she could be in poor health.
He had been pretending to be unwell, probably all for her sake.
Su Yueya was filled with guilt.
It seems that because of her amnesia, not only Lu Zhengjun was affected, but also her family members.
"Mom." Lu Zhengjun gently nudged Bai Xiuhui's shoulder, turned her head, and whispered, "Don't cough."
"What?" Bai Xiuhui asked with difficulty between coughs.
"Stop coughing," Lu Zhengjun repeated.
Bai Xiuhui was puzzled and looked at her son with a questioning gaze.
No need to install it anymore?
Unfortunately, the mother and son failed to connect telepathically this time, and Bai Xiuhui continued coughing.
How could I not pretend?
We can't let our daughter-in-law find out anything while she's sick!
Then, Bai Xiuhui continued coughing.
Even Su Yueya couldn't stand it anymore.
"Mom, please stop coughing. I know you're faking it," Su Yueya whispered, feeling very sorry for her family.
"What?" Bai Xiuhui looked embarrassed, even blushing slightly, and said stubbornly, "Mom wasn't faking it, her throat is just a little sore, it's nothing serious..."
Lu Zhengjun: "..."
He simply couldn't stand it anymore.
Su Yueya's chin was almost buried in her chest.
"Mom, Yueya has regained her memory, and I've told her everything I needed to tell her," Lu Zhengjun confessed honestly.
After hearing this, Bai Xiuhui was speechless.
Shouldn't such an important matter have been explained to them before they arrive?
“You…” Bai Xiuhui pointed at her son, completely doubting whether he was even her own child.
She turned her head and quickly explained to Su Yueya.
"Crescent Moon, I'm not the mastermind. I didn't lie to you on purpose. This kid made me pretend!" Bai Xiuhui quickly tried to distance herself from the situation.
"You brat!" Bai Xiuhui slapped Lu Zhengjun on the back and scolded, "How could you lie to Yueya? You even made me lie with your father! Look at the mess you've made!"
"Crescent Moon, you absolutely mustn't get angry. If you have to get angry, get angry at him. He not only made me pretend to be sick, but he also said that I found his father later. We've been wronged!"
Su Yueya was both amused and exasperated.
"Mom, am I really her biological child?" Lu Zhengjun asked helplessly, utterly exasperated by her mother's attempt to shift the blame.
Instead of speaking up for him, you're making Crescent Moon angry with him?
Is she really her biological mother?
As expected, his parents truly loved him; he was just an accident.
“You’re not,” Bai Xiuhui deliberately contradicted.
Su Yueya recalled the past and how convincingly Lu Anguo and Bai Xiuhui acted in front of her. She felt both amused and wanting to cry.
Because she knew that their pretense at that time was just to prevent her from overthinking due to her anxiety about gains and losses.
"Mom, I'm not angry," Su Yueya quickly said, grabbing Bai Xiuhui's hand.
“I know you all mean well for me, and Zhengjun too. He didn’t lie to me on purpose. I was in a bad state at the time and had amnesia, so I mistook him for someone else. He didn’t abandon me, which is already very kind of him.”
