Lin Qingqing looked at Qiao Jingzhen with a smile and asked, "Grandma Qiao, how do you know about Silk Shadow?"
She had heard of this brand in her previous life. It was famous for its expensive materials and exquisite workmanship. Its main customers were the wives of senior government officials and wives of large conglomerates. It was very famous in the upper class, so it has remained popular for a long time.
She hadn't expected Qiao Jingzhen to know about this brand. While Silk Shadow wasn't as famous as it had been in her previous life, it was gaining traction, attracting wealthy individuals. She couldn't understand how Qiao Jingzhen, living in Shijiazhuang, could have known about the Yanjing brand.
Qiao Jingzhen glanced at her and said calmly, "I have a friend who knows someone there, and I heard what she said. Let's not talk about this anymore, let's eat!"
Lin Qingqing said "oh" half-believingly and hurried to the kitchen to help her serve the rice.
Tonight, Qiao Jingzhen is stewing the chicken that Xue Guixiang plucked last night. After Xue Guixiang sprinkled salt on it, Qiao Jingzhen added some spices. The chicken had been marinated for a day and a night and was already well-seasoned. After three hours of slow-cooking on low heat, the soup was thick and the meat was delicious. It tasted better than what the chef of a state-owned restaurant cooked.
Xue Guixiang was still in the hospital, so Qiao Jingzhen kept her portion and brought the rest to the dining table.
Lin Qingqing couldn't resist the temptation and secretly picked up a piece of chicken and put it in her mouth. Unexpectedly, Qiao Jingzhen saw it and scolded her, "Greedy cat!"
Lin Qingqing laughed shamelessly, "It smells so good..."
After eating, she and Zhou Zhuo went to the hospital.
They rushed to the hospital, firstly to visit Zhou Xilai, and secondly to call Xue Guixiang back, otherwise their naive mother would definitely compete with Wei Xiaobao for taking care of the patient.
When I arrived at the ward, I saw Xue Guixiang feeding her brother-in-law some light red date millet porridge. Wei Xiaobao was sitting on the sofa, poking his cheek boredly, as if nothing had happened.
Today, the Wei family only came for a symbolic visit, showed up briefly and left. Wei Xiaobao also wanted to go home, but was scolded by her mother.
Zhou Xilai was lying on the bed with his little eyes open, looking in good spirits.
He was in pain for half the night last night, but the most difficult period has passed. He can now barely talk to people, but he has lost too much blood, so he needs to slow down after speaking a few words.
Seeing his nephew and niece-in-law coming, he signaled them to sit down with his eyes.
Zhou Zhuo didn't sit down. He came to his bed and asked in a low voice: "Are you okay today?"
Zhou Xilai nodded.
"The person who tried to assassinate you has been apprehended. Rest assured and take good care of yourself."
"I heard about it." Zhou Xilai said weakly.
"Then we'll leave first and come see you tomorrow."
Zhou Zhuo's few words were simple and perfunctory, and he couldn't wait to leave. Lin Qingqing had already taken action and pulled Xue Guixiang: "Mom, let's go quickly, don't disturb Second Uncle's rest."
Xue Guixiang was extremely anxious. "You asked me to leave, but I refused to leave," she said. "No, I must stay here tonight to take care of your uncle."
"Don't you have Sister Xiaobao to take care of you?"
"It's better if two people take care of it together." Xue Guixiang's temper flared up again.
"The ward is so small, there's no room for two people."
"Then let Xiaobao go home and rest for a night. She has taken care of her all night, so she deserves to go home and have a good sleep."
Wei Xiaobao was shocked. She was just looking forward to it. But when she thought of her mother and her sister-in-law, she withered again. She had no home to return to.
"It's the same for Sister Xiaobao to sleep in the hospital, so don't worry about it."
