However, once the topic of hospitalizing Wu Jiang came up, Wu Jiang immediately demonstrated the adage "silence is golden" to the fullest, leaving those around him feeling helpless and at a loss.
Song Lili was both amused and exasperated after hearing Song Jianshe's description of what Wujiang had done.
So Wu Jiang's current attitude is that silence is golden, and he's just passively resisting? No matter who tries to persuade him, it's useless?
He has consistently maintained his stance of refusing hospitalization and treatment.
Song Lili was so angry she almost laughed. She was already furious even before she met Wu Jiang.
But even if she was angry, she couldn't just ignore it, since he was her own maternal uncle.
Song Lili followed Song Jianshe, and the two of them went to Wujiang's home together.
Upon seeing Song Lili, Wu Jiang scolded her, "Why did you come back? It's just a minor ailment, you didn't need to make a special trip for me."
"You have so many things to do at home, and so much business to do, plus you have to take care of your children, so you shouldn't go."
Song Lili said irritably, "Then Uncle, you should listen to other people's advice. As long as you get proper treatment, I definitely won't make an extra trip."
“But now, you simply won’t listen to anyone’s advice. You refuse to get treatment, so I have no choice but to make the trip. After all, you’re my uncle, and I can’t just abandon you.”
Song Lili's words made Wu Jiang feel awkward, but he wouldn't budge and agree to treatment. Song Lili admired him for it.
Wu Jiang's family was worried about him and tried to persuade him every day, but he just wouldn't agree.
"Uncle, what are you really thinking? Or do you have other ideas in mind? Tell us, and we'll all think of a solution together."
“Even if you have any concerns, you should speak up. With more people involved, we can come up with a solution. Why are you always so stubborn? This won’t solve the problem.”
Song Lili looked at Wu Jiang with a sense of helplessness. In the end, she decided to have a good talk with Wu Jiang and try to get him to agree.
Song Lili was only guessing, but she didn't expect Wu Jiang to remain silent.
His silence meant that he tacitly agreed with what Song Lili had just said, and that he did indeed have other concerns.
However, he did not tell anyone else about this concern.
"Uncle, just tell me why you're not going. Tell me, maybe I have a solution."
"As you know, I do business in the capital. I can handle anything that isn't particularly difficult."
Song Lili is now taking on everything, regardless of whether she can actually do it.
Let's get Wu Jiang to agree to the treatment first. As for whether she can actually do it, that depends on what Wu Jiang is worried about.
Seeing Song Lili's "I won't give up until you tell me" attitude, Wu Jiang felt helpless.
He also understood that he couldn't go against his niece's wishes.
He could fool others if they didn't tell him, but this niece was different. If he didn't tell her, he would keep at it until he found out what he wanted to know.
Wu Jiang sighed, "Lili, let's not go. Taking medicine at home is the same. I don't think there's any need to be hospitalized."
"Why wouldn't it be necessary? If it weren't necessary, the doctor certainly wouldn't have recommended hospitalization."
"The doctor has said that you must be hospitalized, which means that your condition has reached the point where hospitalization is absolutely necessary."
"Uncle, you should just agree already, so everyone won't worry. Look at my cousin and aunt, they all have dark circles under their eyes."
"That means they didn't get enough rest last night, which must be because they were worried about you. Just agree."
"If you're worried about money, I can find my cousin a job, so there's no need to worry about money at all."
"Besides the money issue, what other concerns do you have? Tell me."
Song Lili felt that there was no need to test the waters now; it would be better to just get straight to the point with Wu Jiang.
Wu Jiang's heart was still heavy. "I know they told me before the construction started that they could arrange a job for Huanhuan, but won't that put you in a difficult position?"
"And when you assign jobs, don't you have to use connections? Otherwise, how can you assign jobs?"
Wu Jiang's ultimate concern was Song Lili, fearing that she would have to beg for favors and be at the mercy of others.
Therefore, Wu Jiang has always insisted on not causing any trouble for Song Lili.
Upon hearing this, Song Lili was deeply moved, her eyes welled up, and she felt tears welling up in her eyes.
Song Lili didn't want Wu Jiang to see her tears, so she quickly turned her head to look out the window and blinked hard. She wanted to blink away all the tears and not let anyone see her like this.
Once she finally managed to control her emotions, Song Lili smiled, as if the person with teary eyes just now wasn't her at all.
"Uncle, you don't need to worry about these things. Besides, I don't need to owe anyone any favors."
"I run a hot pot restaurant, right? It's my own place. I can find a spot for my cousin without having to ask anyone for help. Don't worry, it won't affect me at all."
What else could Song Lili say? She felt very happy to have someone who always thought of her.
But I was also a little angry. Why didn't Wu Jiang tell me? If he had, none of this would have happened.
He was worrying to himself, but how could he be sure that his worries weren't unfounded?
These words are hurtful, but Song Lili won't say them; at least she wouldn't be so heartless.
Wu Jiang did this because he cared about her; if it were anyone else, who would care if you owed him a favor?
"Really? This really won't affect you?" Wu Jiang didn't actually know much about these things.
However, hearing Song Lili say this, I still couldn't help but have doubts in my heart, fearing that Song Lili was only saying this to reassure me.
Wu Jiang's appearance warmed Song Lili's heart. "Of course it's true, don't worry. Otherwise, you can ask my older brother. Even my older brother can find a place for my cousin."
"Don't worry about these things. Your main task now is to listen to me, go to the hospital, and get well. That's the most important thing. We'll take care of everything else."
Seeing that Song Lili really didn't seem to be lying, Wu Jiang finally felt at ease.
What he had been insisting on before was resolved by Song Lili in just a few words, so now he had no reason to persist.
"In that case, I'll go to the hospital. However, we don't have that much money at home, so I'll need your help."
"Your cousin will pay you back once he earns money."
