Zhang Guoqing was riding a bicycle with Zhou Jiao sitting sideways on his back. The two wheels were running fast on the street, but it did not delay their conversation at all.
"...Since we don't even know Mr. Zuo, would it be rude to visit him so suddenly?"
"No, he's so happy to see us. There aren't many people in the capital who can have my wife come to their house."
Zhou Jiao smiled. Her man really knows how to talk!
"I'm a little afraid of the General Hospital. It's a really bad place for us."
"That was an accident. I don't have any regrets. Why are you being so cowardly? Now you should think about how many people still remember this incident. Maybe someone will ask you for compensation."
"Eight hundred years have passed. How is that possible?"
——You know what, someone really wants compensation.
Before they even entered the hospital gate, Yang Qun saw Zhang Guoqing and his wife riding their bicycles like Hot Wheels.
At first he didn't notice them chatting with his colleagues, but now it happened so quickly that even though he hadn't seen them for a long time, he was still deeply impressed by them.
Yang Qun's eyes lit up, and he patted his colleague next to him, "I have something to do, let's talk later."
After saying that, he stepped forward, raised his hands and shouted, "Zhang Guoqing, Zhang Xiaowu, here..."
Zhang Guoqing looked forward and said, "Oh my god..." He almost got cuckolded.
"It's Yang Qun." After reminding Zhou Jiao, he quickly rode to the other side and stopped, grinning cheerfully, "Brother Yang, long time no see."
Yang Qun nodded to Zhou Jiao who was coming down from behind and said with a smile, "Why don't you come to play with me? Why are you and your sister-in-law going to the hospital? Do you need help?"
"I really need your help. Do you know where Mr. Wan Dali lives? His son Zuo Lin is a very good elder of mine. I heard that he is in the hospital and I want to go see him."
Yang Qun's smile deepened upon hearing this. "Even if I don't know, I'll still help you find out. After all, you're Zhang Xiaowu. I told you that you kicked the door in, and you just walked away. Do you want to pay me first?"
Zhang Guoqing, pushing the cart and walking in the same row with him, smiled and said, "Brother Yang, let's not dwell on the past. I was hoping you'd give me a red envelope. Look how good you are now. I heard you have a lovely wife and children."
"It's over. I know the money was wasted. You have to buy me a drink."
Zhang Guoqing smiled and nodded, "That's a must. Pick a weekend and let's get together. Uncle Yang is at work today, right? I don't dare to go see him, so you have to say hello for me."
Yang Qun laughed heartily, patted his shoulder with his hand, and said, "Okay, we'll see you then. Leave the car here, I'll take you to find someone first."
Zhou Jiao saw the two of them arm in arm from behind and was speechless - they got together so quickly.
Along the way, she saw that Yang Qun did not mention his ex-girlfriend Lin Xuelin, which she understood. After all, the elder sister's love affair was widely spread. Who would be willing to be cuckolded?
But the other party took me to deliberately avoid my aunt Lin Liying, so he was really a "scheming person".
Standing downstairs in the ward, Yang Qun pointed upstairs and said, "Then I won't go up. If anything happens, ask the nurse to call me."
Zhang Guoqing smiled and nodded, saying, "Go and do your thing. I won't come to the office to look for you later. I'm usually at home every weekend, so we can keep in touch over the phone."
Yang Qun smiled and nodded, watching Zhang Guoqing carefully carry his wife upstairs with the net bag. He smiled, as he was still quite frightened by what happened back then.
Thinking of Zhang Guoqing, he grinned. No wonder this guy is so popular. He has a really good personality, and talking to him is really enjoyable and comfortable.
When Yang Qun turned to leave, he thought of Lin Xuelin, that woman... and curled his lips in disdain.
After going up to the second floor, Zhang Guoqing and his wife came to the door of the ward and knocked. When the door opened, a handsome little boy about ten years old appeared.
He tilted his head and looked at the two of them, "Who are you?"
A calm female voice came from inside, "Don't ask around, kid. Let the guest in."
The little boy quickly opened the door and jumped in front to lead the way.
Zhou Jiao looked around the eye ward. It was just as she'd imagined, with two rooms, one inside and one outside. No one was outside, so everyone must be inside. She had no idea what illness they had.
In addition to the old man leaning on the bed, there was also an old lady, a middle-aged woman, and a couple in the room. At this moment, they looked curiously at the young couple at the door.
Zhang Guoqing glanced around, his gaze lingering on the old man. He smiled and said, "You are Grandpa Zuo, right? I can tell at a glance that my Uncle Zuo takes after you. We look so much alike. I am Zhang Guoqing from Northeast China, and this is my wife Zhou Jiao."
Zhou Jiao smiled at them.
Zuo Dali, the old man, asked in surprise, "Does our Zuo Lin know that I'm in the hospital?"
"You old man are really... children, you are so thoughtful. Come and sit down." Old Mrs. Zuo smiled and waved her hand, asking her grandson to move the stools.
A middle-aged woman beside him whispered in the old man's ear, "These are Comrade Zhou Xiaozheng's daughter and son-in-law who are both in college. I guess I don't know that you are not in good health yet."
After hearing this, Old Master Zuo laughed and said, "This child is really... Turns out to be that Zhang Xiaowu. I know, I know this child."
Mrs. Zuo patted her husband's hand and said, "Don't worry. We didn't inform him because we knew you didn't want the children to leave their work and come here."
Zhang Guoqing and Zhou Jiao looked at each other and said to the old man, "What's wrong with you? What did the doctor say? Even if you don't let my uncle Zuo come over, you still have to take care of yourself."
Old Master Zuo said, "These doctors are rubbish. I said I'm not sick, but they insisted on hospitalizing me. It makes me angry just thinking about it. Son, please don't tell my son."
The middle-aged woman smiled apologetically at Zhang Guoqing and his wife. "I'm Zuo Cuiying, the eldest sister of Zuo Lin. Don't be offended by the old man's temper. He's in the hospital with gastric bleeding and is now throwing a tantrum because of the dietary restrictions."
"Stop talking nonsense. Stomach bleeding? Where's the blood? Ask the doctor to get it out. I just have rheumatism in my legs and they're weak, I'm not fainting."
Old Lady Zuo echoed him, "Yeah, he accidentally got drunk, otherwise he would be jumping around like a young man."
When Mr. Zuo was prodded by his wife, his temper immediately dropped. "I just saw some good wine. Okay, one glass a day from now on, okay?"
Old Lady Zuo raised her voice suddenly, "Do you still want one cup a day?"
"My dear, please be restrained when the younger generation is here."
Zhang Guoqing and Zhou Jiao, watching the show, finally saw that the Zuo family's female-led style was inherited from this. No wonder Aunt Zuo was so capable of handling Zuo Lin.
Zhang Guoqing whispered to the young man beside him, "Doctor, is it serious?"
"It's chronic gastritis. The doctor told me to quit drinking and smoking, and eat a light diet. It will be fine after some rest, so my family didn't notify my uncle."
"Have you tried any folk remedies?"
"I've tried a lot of folk remedies before, but they didn't work. Now, this time, something went wrong because I wasn't paying attention. My uncle has been asking people about it these past two days."
Zhang Guoqing chatted with him for a while and learned that the old man was fine. He was happy for them. An old man in the family is like a treasure. Having Mr. Zuo standing by is a good thing for the Zuo family.
It was the first time the two sides met and there was not much to talk about.
Zhang Guoqing and his wife showed their courtesy and sincerity, sat for a while and then said goodbye and left.
