She had handed the choice back to Mr. Shen.
The main point is to respect fate.
After all, for those who have built their own kingdom like them, once they make a decision, it is no longer the time for bystanders like them to change their mindset with a few words.
"Okay, I'll let him come right away."
Mr. Shen acted very quickly. Once things were basically confirmed, he took action immediately.
About two hours later, just as it was nine o'clock, Mr. Gao had already arrived at the Shen family.
He was somewhat surprised to see Song Rushuang here.
Song Rushuang called out sweetly, "Grandpa Gao, good morning."
Mr. Gao was sitting at the tea table on the other side, and his eyes moved from Song Rushuang to Mr. Shen in surprise.
"No wonder you're so mysterious. Did you kidnap my Xiaoqi to your house?"
Mr. Shen was not happy with what he heard, and he immediately expressed his dissatisfaction:
"What do you mean, your Xiaoqi? This child calls me grandpa, and he'll be my child soon. No matter what, he's definitely closer to me than an old man like you!"
"Your child?"
Old Master Gao looked doubtfully between Song Rushuang and Old Master Shen, then asked uncertainly:
"Are you dreaming? Xiao Qi's father is clearly..."
When he mentioned the name, Mr. Gao braked in time.
He looked at Song Rushuang with full apology, but he didn't mean to mention Song Laoliu.
Mr. Shen knew what his old friend wanted to say.
So, he said very bluntly: "She was before, but not anymore. When my A Yao comes back, she will be my legitimate granddaughter."
When Song Rushuang heard this, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but twitch slightly.
Listening to what Mr. Shen said, people who are not in the know would probably think that this matter is a done deal.
Take Mr. Gao for example, he obviously misunderstood something.
Mr. Gao pondered for a while, then suddenly realized, "No wonder. No wonder A Yao risked his future to save them. I was wondering why he cared so much about them, but now it seems it's because he loves them."
"Of course not! I'm telling you, as soon as A Yao comes back, I, an old man, will immediately hold a wedding for our two children!"
Song Rushuang didn't know when Duan Dinglan would come back. If she heard such words, it would definitely cause a "big uproar".
She quickly interrupted and said, “Grandpa Shen, have you forgotten the purpose of inviting Grandpa Gao here today?”
With just one sentence, Mr. Shen instantly calmed down.
His gaze fell directly on Mr. Gao.
"Why are you looking at me like that all of a sudden?"
"I remember that your pneumonia was serious at first. How did you cure it?"
I only have a few good friends, and they all fought on the battlefield together. They know each other's chronic health problems.
When I met my old friend a few years ago, he was ill and his face was always very pale.
But this time when I saw him, his face was obviously glowing, and just by looking at him I could feel the vitality emanating from him.
Could it be that Song Rushuang also cured his chronic illnesses?
Although Mr. Gao did not say anything, his eyes were immediately fixed on Song Rushuang.
So, the truth seems to be self-evident.
"Why do you ask this suddenly?"
Now that things have come to this, it's better to speak frankly.
Song Rushuang simply told Mr. Gao about Mr. Shen's physical condition.
Moreover, she also specifically mentioned that he didn't have much time left, so he had to make a decision quickly.
Mr. Gao said in a deep voice:
"Xiao Qi really helped me cure my illness. Although it's strange, I am indeed cured. If you are worried about this, I think you don't have to worry about it because of my experience."
Mr. Shen was stunned, even though he had been mentally prepared.
But when his old friend really said it directly, it became a different matter.
He couldn't help but look at Song Rushuang, his eyes filled with shock:
"You, who are you?"
But Mr. Gao spoke up in time to persuade him, "Old Shen, don't ask about these things. Who doesn't have a secret? The child is thinking about us, and that's enough."
It seems that his good friend already knew something.
Mr. Shen is not a pedantic person. The reason why he can become friends with someone like Mr. Gao for many years is not only because of their similar status, but more because their temperaments are compatible.
No matter how many questions he had in his mind, he would not deny Gao Cheng this face.
Moreover, his old friend was right in one thing he said.
The child knew that saying such things would make others suspect her, but she still said it.
Then she really treated him as an elder.
The children were thinking about him, which was enough for people of their age.
"Thank you for your hard work, Xiao Qi. Just relax. If it can be cured, then treat it. If it can't be cured, that's fine too. Don't be too hard on yourself."
Mr. Shen naturally knows the best about his own physical condition.
He didn't want his affairs to bring unnecessary pressure to Song Rushuang.
Song Rushuang naturally knew how well-intentioned he was in saying this.
She nodded, then said softly, "Don't worry, Xiao Qi will do her best to help you recover."
Her attitude was very firm.
Gao Cheng slapped his thigh and said in a deep voice: "Okay, then I, the old man, will protect you!"
When Song Rushuang handed the medicine in the bottle to the old man, Mr. Shen's reaction was somewhat strange.
"Is this medicine enough to make me better?"
It’s not that I don’t believe Song Rushuang, it’s just that this is a bit exaggerated.
Can Traditional Chinese Medicine really cure all diseases?
Song Rushuang thought for a while and now she had no choice but to rely on Mr. Bai's reputation to do things.
“Grandpa Shen should know who Bai Lao is, right?”
"Of course I know."
Song Rushuang said slowly, "By chance, he thought I was extremely talented and gave Xiaoqi an ancient book. That book had a record of this medicine."
After a pause, she continued as if unintentionally:
"Perhaps, Xiao Qi is really talented in this area. That's why he was able to create a medicine that even Old Bai couldn't. You can be considered Xiao Qi's first tester."
After a pause, Song Rushuang felt herself becoming increasingly guilty. "Even though the effect is unknown, are you still willing to trust Xiao Qi?"
