When Jiang Yan heard the soft and tender voices of the two babies, her heart softened.
"Okay, wash your hands and eat." Hearing the two babies' baby voices, even an eagle-like woman like her couldn't help but clamp them up!
Jiang Yan washed their hands with the two little ones. As luck would have it, Si Lu also came back. He was busy in the afternoon, so he worked overtime. Thinking of Jiang Yan who wanted to go home, he hurried and finally made it in time for dinner.
"Dad is back."
"Hurry up and wash your hands. It's time to eat."
Jiang Yan sat down with the two babies. Si Lu washed his hands and changed his clothes before going downstairs. It was a rare family reunion for them to sit together and have dinner.
While eating, Mr. Si was still talking about the Jiang family's move to Beijing. "It's been delayed again. With this, I'm afraid it will be good if they can come during the Chinese New Year."
The capital is now under martial law, mainly because we are afraid that the movement of people will cause unnecessary spread of the epidemic, so the conference that was previously planned will now be postponed to the end of the year.
This is the second time the schedule has been rescheduled.
"The current situation is like this. It feels like there is a lot of trouble outside now, but with the previous experience of fighting the epidemic in Beijing, it has been well controlled."
Ning Yu couldn't help but join in the discussion, "So how is your research on that medicine going? Have you made any progress?"
Jiang Yan couldn't help laughing. When Si Lu saw her expression, he knew that the special medicine was successful.
"Done?"
"Really?" Even the old man got excited, "Yanyan, is this true?"
Jiang Yan nodded, and everyone in the Si family breathed a sigh of relief. "Fortunately, we have fulfilled our mission. The special medicine has been successfully developed, but it still needs to undergo two more phases of experiments. I believe it will soon be officially launched on the market and complete its mission."
"Oh, this is great news!"
“Good!”
The two babies didn’t quite understand what the adults were talking about as good things, but they knew that their family members were happy, so they were happy.
"Now there's hope." Ning Yu has been a doctor for decades and knows best how difficult it is for ordinary people. Many people's diseases can be cured, but because they have no money, they have to give up treatment and lose their lives.
If there is any disease in this world, it is only poverty.
This is even more true for an epidemic. In its face, there is no distinction between high and low people. No matter whether you are a high-ranking official or a commoner, you will get what you deserve and die what you deserve.
The old man lived through the old society and had seen many such things. People were really miserable back then. When faced with an epidemic, they could only grit their teeth and endure. If they could survive, they would survive. If they couldn't, they would be wrapped in straw mats, buried, or burned.
"Now it's good. Everyone has food to eat and education. Smart people like Yanyan can even research drugs to fight epidemics. That's great."
The old man was so happy that tears welled up in his eyes. "Today is a good day. We should drink a little wine, right?"
Ning Yu and Si Guangming looked at each other, both feeling helpless.
The old man is old and acts like a child.
"You can't drink too much, you can only drink one glass, and you can only drink the medicinal wine that Yanyan brewed."
"Okay, okay, one cup is fine."
The old man didn't bargain. After all, something to drink was better than nothing.
"If I had known I would be so happy, I would have bought a roast duck."
"There are so many vegetables at home. It would be a waste if we can't finish them."
While everyone was happy, Si Lu announced another piece of good news, "Yanyan, uncle woke up at noon."
"real?"
Si Lu nodded, "It's just that he was a little weak, so we didn't talk for a few words and let him rest."
There was another round of jubilation at the dinner table. "This is great news, Yanyan. Go see him when you have time. When he recovers a little, we'll go visit him again. It hasn't been easy for your uncle over the years. Our two families are legitimate relatives, and he doesn't have any children. From now on, you and Si Lu will have to take on the responsibility of taking care of him in his old age."
I have to say that the Si family is extremely righteous. They consider issues very comprehensively, do things rationally and considerately, and they care a lot about others.
"Thank you, Dad."
Jiang Yan's words came from the heart. Most people can't be so open-minded! Let the young couple take care of their uncle in his old age.
Of course, there is no financial pressure on the Si family, and Song Qingzhou will receive a lot of pension in the future, which is enough for his retirement.
When people get old, apart from money, what they need is companionship and care, which are very time-consuming and energy-consuming.
Si Guangming took the initiative to mention this matter at the dinner table because he really hoped that they could take care of Song Qingzhou's later years.
"We are one family and we don't have different opinions."
"The wine is here." Huai Xinnian brought the poured wine to the old man, "Just one glass."
After saying that, he placed another cup in front of Si Guangming.
impartial.
The family finished their dinner happily. Jiang Yan read picture books with the two babies for a while. After the three of them played for a while, the two children became very sleepy.
Ning Yu quickly prepared milk for the children and asked Jiang Yan and Si Lu to go to the hospital.
"It's so late, go and come back quickly, don't disturb your uncle's rest."
"Okay, got it."
The two little ones waved goodbye to their parents and went to drink milk obediently.
The two rode their bicycles to the hospital, talking about Song Qingzhou as they walked.
"My uncle will need some time to recover from his injuries. I have assigned several colleagues to stay in the hospital to protect him. They all carry sidearms just in case."
"Security needs to be strengthened. What did he say about Song Qingyun?"
Si Lu acted as a mouthpiece and told Jiang Yan exactly what Song Qingzhou said.
"Is this good news or bad news?"
Jiang Yan sighed, "Of course it's good news! It's easier to take action now that we have a target. Knowing her identity will make the action more satisfying."
Si Lu remained silent, but just pedaled forward blindly, as if letting the wheels carry them forward.
"What do you mean by not saying anything? Do you think I'm cruel and ruthless? Disobedient and unfilial?"
As Jiang Yan spoke, she pinched the man's waist. Unfortunately, Si Lu didn't have any fat on his waist and abdomen. His eight-pack abs were as hard as when they first met.
"How dare I! Besides, am I such a person who can't tell right from wrong? Don't you think about it? What she did is not good for the family or the country. You are just getting rid of harm for the people."
Besides, has Song Qingyun ever fulfilled his responsibilities for a single day?
"That's more like it."
"When the time comes, you won't have to do anything. Don't dirty your hands."
Si Lu had already made up his mind. If it really came to a life-and-death struggle, he would never let Jiang Yan kill Song Qingyun. After all, she was Song Qingyun's biological mother. It would be unpleasant to be accused of matricide! If the news leaked out, who knows how people outside would frame Yan Yan!
Absolutely not.
The two arrived at the hospital while talking. Si Lu locked his bicycle and accompanied Jiang Yan upstairs.
As soon as she reached the corridor, Jiang Yan noticed something was wrong. The whole corridor was filled with a smell of medicine, which seemed to be the smell of drugs...
