The car drove away from the restaurant, made a U-turn at the alley entrance, and then smoothly drove onto the main road. The young master pouted and held his breath for a while before finally unable to hold back and questioning Zhu Qianying.
"Mommy, are you lying to your son?"
Zhu Qianying pretended not to understand what the little guy was saying, blinking her eyes and looking at Zizai with an innocent expression.
"Sweetie, what did Mommy lie to you about?"
"Didn't you say that Grandma and Grandpa Luo were just filming a commercial? It's not just a commercial, I think Grandpa Luo is Grandma's boyfriend!"
Zizai puffed out his cheeks angrily, making his little face look even rounder and chubbier.
Just as Zhu Qianying was about to explain, Xiao Luzi tugged at Zizai's hand and asked.
Why did you say that Grandpa Luo was Grandma's boyfriend?
So, young master Zizai turned to look at Xiaoluzi and said.
"Look, Grandpa Luo is busy in the shop, he's even helping to collect money!"
It seems that in young master Zizai's mind, as long as someone helps collect money, they are considered one of his own.
Xiao Lu chuckled, "My grandpa accompanies my grandma to buy groceries every day, and they practice Tai Chi together. My grandpa even helps with collecting money. Why don't you just say my grandpa is your grandma's boyfriend?"
The young master was speechless after what Xiao Luzi said, while Zhu Qianying was trying her best to suppress her laughter.
So, Xiao Luzi actually wanted her own mother to be her mother-in-law?
It seems that at least one of these two little ones will have their wish dashed.
Previously, Zhu Qianying only felt that Bai Xiangdong was very good to her mother.
She still feels that way now.
But compared to Luo Yifan, the feelings between the two are very distinct and completely different.
Especially when I saw my mom and Bai Xiangdong interacting in the hospital this morning, they were indeed affectionate and close, but more like siblings than like when my mom was with Luo Yifan, there was always a little awkwardness between them.
That little bit of awkwardness could perhaps be understood as shyness.
However, it's best to let the parties involved decide this matter themselves. As Yan Shao said, matters of the heart are like choosing shoes; only the wearer knows which pair fits best.
Zhu Qianying found that Xiao Luzi's words were really effective. For several days afterward, Zizai didn't mention that Luo Yifan was his mother-in-law's boyfriend.
Bai Xiangdong stayed in the hospital for a few days, and his complexion was better than before. Whether it was because of the effects of the medicine prescribed by the hospital or because his condition was not serious to begin with, he did not faint again during his stay in the hospital.
So he started clamoring to be discharged from the hospital, which Bai Shao naturally refused.
Because Bai Shao had a detailed discussion with the doctor after his test results came out, and the doctor consistently recommended surgery as soon as possible. However, for the time being, they hadn't been able to schedule an appointment with a highly authoritative expert.
Yan Shao received another call from Bai Shao on the fourth day after Bai Xiangdong was hospitalized.
"Young Master Yan, could you give me Dr. Zhao's contact information? I'd like to try contacting him myself."
Yan Shao could understand Bai Shao's anxiety, because the results from the hospital's examination were not optimistic.
Yan Shao had asked someone else to find another authoritative expert, and they had just received a reply.
"Bai Shao, just give up on the idea of contacting Dr. Zhao. I've contacted another specialist, but he won't be available for a week to fly over and check on Uncle Dong's condition. Are you going to wait?"
The answer from Bai Shao is, of course, to wait.
Just a few minutes after Yan Shao hung up the phone, he received a call from Bai Xiangdong.
"Uncle Dong, what's the matter?"
Yan Shao thought that Bai Xiangdong was going to tell him something discouraging, like not to see a doctor because he wouldn't treat him.
Unexpectedly, Bai Xiangdong said, "Young Master Yan, did Yingzi mention what I told her a few days ago?"
After receiving an affirmative answer, Bai Xiangdong added, "I found the contact information for that old neighbor. Write it down. He will be waiting in front of my shop at nine o'clock tomorrow. Ask him for details when you see him!"
After finishing his sentence, he didn't mention his illness or treatment at all. He only gave some basic information about Chen Jing's family. Yan Shao recorded what he said and sent the recording to Ke Kai's email after hanging up the phone.
When he got home that evening, Yan Shao naturally couldn't bring up the matter in front of his family and Chen Jing.
It wasn't until the two returned to the bedroom that Yan Shao roughly relayed what Bai Xiangdong had said.
After hearing this, Zhu Qianying immediately said, "Then I'll go with you tomorrow, okay?"
Yan Shao was slightly annoyed. To be honest, he was reluctant to let Zhu Qianying know about anything that was being handled in Tongjia Village, and he didn't want her to get involved.
But this matter involves her and her mother, so it seems unlikely that she would not get involved.
"Ying'er, Kai can handle that kind of thing. You don't know that person, so even if you see him, it won't help."
Yan Shao regretted telling Zhu Qianying about this, but he had no choice but to tell her, because Bai Xiangdong's heart was with Zhu Qianying, and he couldn't possibly keep this from her.
Even though Yan Shao said that, Zhu Qianying still insisted.
“I know I can’t be of much help, but I have some questions to ask that old neighbor.”
There were some things that Zhu Qianying had always been puzzled about, but she could never get the answers from her mother, so she wanted to ask that old neighbor for confirmation.
After thinking for a moment, Yan Shao came up with a way that could both ensure her safety and allow her to verify the information.
"How about this, tomorrow you and I will go to Tongjia Village, and I will have Kai bring that old neighbor to Tongjia Village."
And so, the matter was settled.
The next morning, Zhu Qianying got up early, which was unusual for her. She saw Bai Shao and her daughter, as well as Zizai, at the breakfast table.
After everyone greeted each other, Bai Shao asked curiously, "Why are you up so early today? Are you going back to work at the jewelry store?"
Zhu Qianying shook her head. "No, the jewelry store is still closed for renovations. I'm currently unemployed and very bored at home, so I've decided to be a dutiful wife today and accompany him to the company."
In a sense, Tongjia Village is also Yan Shao's property, so what Zhu Qianying said is not wrong.
Bai Shao expressed her understanding and wanted to say something more, but Zhu Qianying, afraid that she would gossip, reminded her that time was almost up, so Bai Shao quickly took the time to lower her head and drink her porridge.
Speaking of which, Bai Shao and her daughter have been staying at the Yan family's house for a few days now, and both Bai Shao and Xiao Luzi are having a great time.
Firstly, the Yan family and they were already quite familiar with each other. They used to eat together at restaurants often. Although they weren't as close as family, their relationship was still very good.
In addition, the Yan family is too big, and the number of people in the Yan family is too small. Even with the addition of Zizai, the house is still not very lively.
But now that Xiao Luzi has arrived, with another child, the sounds of the two kids arguing and playing can often be heard in the house.
