Chapter 62: Innocent Old Man



Zhou Shixun quickly stepped back and sat up straight. His ears couldn't help but turn red again. His voice was a little tense when he spoke: "The place where those people appeared is too strange."

Sheng An Ning saw the man's ears turn red again, and he smiled like a little fox with his eyes bent. She was afraid that his enthusiasm would scare Zhou Shixun, so she sat down and started a serious conversation: "Then why are they doing this?"

Zhou Shixun was originally a man of few words, but facing Sheng Anning who loved to ask questions, he spoke more unconsciously: "First of all, it was not accidental that they kidnapped Luo Caixia, but they knew that I knew her, so they would not stand by and watch her die."

"They were carrying explosives and were forcing me to shoot and rescue Luo Caixia. It is against regulations to shoot without the consent of superiors, and my current unit does not allow such things to happen."

Sheng Anning was puzzled: "What kind of weird rule is this? The kidnappers who brought explosives must be extremely vicious. Why can't they be shot dead?"

Zhou Shixun shook his head: "We are not the police, we don't have this power."

The other party didn't want to kill him, but wanted to destroy him and ruin his future.

Sheng An Ning thought that if Song Xiuyan and Zhou Shixun hadn't cooperated well at that time, it would have been easy for them to get into danger. She couldn't help but think more: "Is there anyone who is jealous of your promotion and is trying to trip you up behind your back?"

Zhou Shixun was a little surprised: "How do you know this?"

Sheng An Ning pouted: "Sister Hongxia said so. She also said that if our relationship is not good, it will also affect your promotion."

Zhou Shixun was silent for a moment: "It's okay."

Sheng An Ning stared. This guy is really stupid. She said that she didn't want to divorce for the time being. What does it mean to say it doesn't matter? She wanted to divorce, and he agreed?

But she wasn't the type to hold back her anger and ignore it. Since there was a problem, she should speak it out immediately. It was also a good way to stop the loss in time: "Zhou Shixun, why did you marry me in the first place?"

Zhou Shixun was very honest: "Mr. Cheng came to me."

Sheng An Ning knew that the old Cheng that Zhou Shixun was talking about was the original owner's grandfather, Zhou Shixun's former chief. She pouted and said, "Marriage is for a lifetime. If I tell you to marry me, just marry me."

After he finished speaking, he paused for a moment and said, "By the way, are you thinking of getting a divorce if your marriage is not going well?"

Zhou Shixun frowned and denied: "I have never thought about divorce."

Sheng An Ning was satisfied. That was great. This wooden man had no idea about the relationship between husband and wife, nor did he understand love and liking. He thought that marriage was just two people living together.

And he is the one who will never mention breaking up.

Zhou Shixun didn't understand why Sheng An Ning suddenly laughed, and her smile was a bit cunning and calculating.

Sheng An Ning put aside the topic of divorce and suddenly changed the topic that made Zhou Shixun blush: "Have you ever thought about how many children you will have in the future? Boys or girls?"

She wasn't quite sure whether family planning had started, but she didn't see any slogans on the wall.

As expected, Zhou Shixun's ears turned red again. He turned his head to look out the window and ignored Sheng Anning's words.

Sheng An Ning really admired Zhou Shixun's innocent look. She felt like a little hooligan teasing a decent woman.

While covering her mouth and laughing secretly, Zhou Shixun suddenly said, "It's not good for a grown-up girl to talk like that."

Sheng An Ning leaned against the car door and chuckled, what an old antique.

When Zhou Shixun's ears were about to smoke, Song Xiuyan came out holding Xiaozhu and his third uncle.

Sheng An Ning quickly opened the door and ran out of the car to greet him: "How is it? What did the doctor say?"

Third Uncle looked worried and puzzled, as if he didn't understand what the doctor said.

Song Xiuyan explained: "The doctor said that Xiaozhu has a lump in his throat. I wonder if this has affected his pronunciation."

Just like Sheng An Ning thought: "What should I do? Do I need surgery?"

Song Xiuyan shook his head: "We don't have the conditions here. Let's go to the city to see if it's a tumor or something."

After all, the county hospital doesn’t even have a decent B-ultrasound machine.

Zhou Shixun also came over, and seeing that his uncle's eyes were red, he comforted him, "It's okay, let's go to the city to see a doctor, it will definitely be cured."

Sheng Anning directly denied it: "It can't be a tumor. It's been two or three years and the columella has not been affected at all. It may be a small thing growing on the vocal cord. It will heal after removal."

Song Xiuyan thought it made sense: "Yes, it shouldn't be a tumor. We'll know when we go to the city hospital."

The third uncle was in so much pain that he couldn't speak. It was in this hospital that he saw his son and daughter-in-law for the last time. It was also in this hospital that he came to collect his grandson's body.

Now it's this hospital again. The little great-grandson was diagnosed with a disease, some kind of tumor, which sounds like a terminal illness.

The old man suddenly felt as if the sky was falling and his back bent.

Sheng An Ning went over and held his arm: "Third Uncle, don't worry, believe me, this is really a very, very small operation, just like a mole on our finger, which doesn't hurt or itch but doesn't look good, we cut it off with a knife."

Hope ignited in Third Uncle's eyes: "Is it really that simple?"

Sheng An Ning almost patted his chest to make a promise, nodding vigorously: "Yes, the doctors in the city are good. For them, this operation is as easy as cutting a cucumber. I guarantee that Xiao Zhu will be able to speak five or six days after the operation."

Song Xiuyan also chimed in: "Let's go to the city hospital right away."

Zhou Shixun looked at Sheng Anning's vivid persuasion, and his heart warmed slightly: "Uncle, we will stay in the county town tonight, go back tomorrow morning to tell my uncle's wife, and then go to the city."

Although Third Uncle was worried about not having money, he looked at Xiao Zhu's tender face and choked up as he looked at Zhou Shixun: "Changsuo, I'm counting on you this time. I will definitely pay you back in the future. Even if I can't pay it back, I will ask Xiao Zhu to pay you back when he grows up."

Zhou Shixun held his uncle's arm and said, "You don't have to be so polite. Changdong has helped me a lot in the past. It's my duty to take care of Xiaozhu."

Third Uncle wiped the tears from his eyes, but he was still not relieved.

They first went to the guesthouse and booked two rooms, a triple room where Zhou Shixun and Song Xiuyan would stay with their third uncle, and a single room where Sheng Anning would sleep with Xiaozhu.

Sheng Anning held Xiao Zhu's hand: "Will you sleep with me?"

Xiao Zhu's eyes were bright and he nodded vigorously.

He doesn't have a mother and doesn't know what a mother is like, so he likes his second aunt. She smells sweet and soft, and must be the same as his mother.

After arranging accommodation, Zhou Shixun took them out for dinner again, this time to Li Ji Milk and Egg Fermented Gravy Shop.

Sheng An Ning could smell the strong smell of fermented glutinous rice wine as soon as she entered the door.

Could it be that the milk, egg and fermented glutinous rice wine she ate that day was bought from here? Isn't this place too far from the hospital?

After sitting down, Sheng Anning took Xiao Zhu out to wash their hands by the door, but when she looked up, she saw Zhou Changyun flash by across the street!
