The two talked as they walked back home.
Xu Xiangyang felt that things hadn't been going well these past two days. He kept running into Liu Feng, and the new city was just too small.
He sighed, then thought for a moment whether he should change jobs.
Although things were not peaceful at this time and it was best not to make any rash moves, he always felt that Liu Feng had ill intentions.
Therefore, try to be as stable as possible to avoid causing major trouble.
He wasn't afraid of Liu Feng, but he had a family to support, which he had to consider.
At noon, Grandma Wang made chicken stew with hazelnuts, pork bone soup, and two small cold dishes.
"Wow, this tastes amazing!" Qian Wenqing took a bite and praised the food.
"This stewed chicken tastes much better than the ones at state-run restaurants! Grandma, you cook better than a professional chef!" he said, eating as he spoke.
Xu Xiangyang couldn't help but feel ashamed. Why wasn't this person usually so eloquent? When trying to say nice things to the boss, he always ended up saying things that didn't make sense.
I guess it's from eating too much meat.
"Oh my, the child is so good at talking! Eat more! Come to our house often!" Grandma Wang smiled from ear to ear.
She also saw that the other person was a year younger than Xu Xiangyang, and since it was rare for her grandson to have a good friend, she had to take good care of him so that the two of them could look after each other at work.
Wang Zhongshan thought the kid was a bit reckless, but he was a good one; at least Xu Xiangyang wouldn't suffer any losses.
"Good boy, eat more." He looked at him with a smile.
The meal went quite harmoniously, and the whole family had a very good impression of Qian Wenqing.
The child is simple-minded, yet she still gets along well with Xu Xiangyang; that's good enough.
When Xu Guangtian returned in the afternoon, there was hardly any food left. Xu Xiangyang said he wouldn't eat dinner, so the family heated up the leftovers.
"When did you eat this? If I'm not mistaken, it should be chicken stew with mushrooms, right?" Xu Guangtian pointed to the mushrooms in the small bowl, which were still covered with a layer of golden oil.
He pointed to a bowl of minced meat and yellowish scallion soup and said, "If I'm not mistaken, this should be pork rib or bone broth, right?"
"Tsk tsk tsk, this is so oily, there must be a lot of meat in it, right?" He sighed after saying that, "Sigh, now I don't even deserve a basic dish when I go home."
Wang Xiumin, holding a plate of scrambled eggs with cucumber, said unhappily, "Who told you not to come home for lunch? Your son's colleagues are coming over, can't I cook something nice for them? You, as their father, are complaining!"
Xu Guangtian chuckled and said, "My wife is so thoughtful. She even made me a plate of scrambled eggs. Don't think I'm being picky. We haven't had meat more than twice in the days since our son left. We used to eat meat every day. Who can get used to this sudden change?"
"I finally get to eat something nice, and I haven't even had a chance to enjoy it. Do you think I shouldn't say something?"
He also felt wronged. Today, the cafeteria at his workplace had braised pork, but he couldn't bear to buy a portion to satisfy his craving, thinking that he hadn't eaten meat at home either.
When he came back and saw this, how could he feel good about it?
Wang Zhongshan tugged at Wang Xiumin, who was still about to speak, and said, "Guangtian has been working all day. Make whatever you want to eat. We have plenty of meat coupons this month. We can get some more meat to make dumplings tomorrow."
Xu Guangtian's favorite food is dumplings, especially celery and pork dumplings, but he didn't have the means to eat them before.
Although they now have the freedom to eat meat, they are reluctant to part with it and usually save their meat coupons to eat when Xu Xiangyang is at home.
So during Xu Xiangyang's business trip, they didn't eat meat and ate only vegetables.
Xu Xiangyang happened to come into the house and, upon hearing that they were going to make dumplings tomorrow, said, "My dad likes celery, so make celery and pork dumplings, with lots of meat."
He just said it casually, went inside to grab his things, and then walked out.
Xu Guangtian, standing to the side, was deeply moved. It had to be his own son; he remembered everything about him.
Xu Xiangyang returned to the house. He had just gone to get a wrench, and he found something in his spatial storage.
He was curious because he couldn't open the door at the back of the cafeteria, even after trying many different methods.
He didn't eat dinner that night, thinking he'd just grab something to eat at the cafeteria. But when he went to check the kitchen, he found an iron gate at the back that was locked.
He tried everything, but couldn't open the door.
This time I took a wrench, wanting to take the door off and try it out.
Xu Xiangyang appeared in the space with a wrench and tried to open the door again, but the result was obvious: he couldn't open it at all.
What should I do?
He was circling the iron gate when he heard someone calling him from outside.
"Open the door, Xiangyang! Open the door quickly!" Wang Xiumin's urgent voice rang out, accompanied by a series of knocks on the door.
Xu Xiangyang was stunned for a moment. The tone of voice was definitely not a trivial matter, so he quickly opened the door and went out.
"What's wrong?" He looked at Wang Xiumin, who was sweating profusely, and didn't know what was wrong either.
Wang Xiumin pulled him outside, saying, "Your grandma isn't feeling well, so your dad took her to the hospital. Why don't you go with her and go see her?"
There was no one inside the house, the gate was open, and the stroller in the yard was gone; they probably pushed it there.
Xu Xiangyang immediately said, "You wait at home, I'll go check on things, it'll be fine."
Since Wang Xiumin is also about to give birth, sending her would probably only cause more trouble.
Knowing she couldn't help, Wang Xiumin nodded through her tears and watched her son leave.
Xu Xiangyang didn't know what was going on, but he still took out two hundred yuan from his spatial storage. No matter what, money can cure diseases, that's the truth.
As long as the money is available, the treatment will definitely not be delayed.
Because there was only one health center in the new town, he arrived at the destination quickly.
He couldn't catch up with the two people ahead of him even while riding his bicycle, and he didn't see them along the way.
I guess they were in a hurry, because they pushed the cart and ran this way.
However, when Xu Xiangyang arrived at the health center, he couldn't find anyone.
He was a little confused. Could it be that he was riding too fast? No way, he hadn't seen anyone on the road.
I asked a nurse if there was only one health center in the new town, and she said that was the only one.
So where did those two people go?
Xu Xiangyang stood at the entrance of the health center for a while, and then saw two people pushing a cart running towards him.
this……
It hasn't arrived yet.
"Dad, why are you two so late? I didn't see you on the way here." He helped push the cart and asked again.
Xu Guangtian, panting heavily, said, "I...we went astray! Ugh, I'm exhausted!"
He was panting heavily, trying to calm himself down.
Xu Xiangyang immediately pushed the cart to get the doctor to take a look. Granny Wang was still unconscious, so they had to hurry.
Although Wang Zhongshan hadn't recovered yet, he still came over to check on things.
A doctor in his fifties examined them briefly and said, "Take them to the ward first, and the family can wait outside."
Once inside the hospital, they had to listen to the doctor, so he pulled Wang Zhongshan to sit at the door and wait for news.
