The atmosphere was a little awkward. The old lady comforted her, saying, "I think Xiaonan is a lucky girl. She is beautiful and does well in school. She will definitely be successful in the future. It's okay if you suffer a little now. You will enjoy the blessings of your children in the future."
"Thank you for your kind words. As long as my brother and sister are healthy, safe, and have stable jobs, Yin Feng and I will be content," Master Ye said with a smile.
Ye Qingqing frowned slightly. She had just discovered that the little girl was suffering from emotional distress when she took her pulse. This was more serious than ankylosing spondylitis. Lin Daiyu died from emotional distress. She was always frowning, worrying about this and that, and crying all the time. She rarely smiled. First, she had a poor appetite, then she developed tuberculosis, and finally died vomiting blood.
Ye Mengjia's condition was certainly not that serious, but this girl was carrying too heavy a psychological burden. No wonder she looked so worried and preoccupied at such a young age, and she was also prone to tears. I just saw several tears on Ye Mengjia's hands.
"Can I call you Mengjia?" Ye Qingqing asked softly.
Ye Mengjia nodded and replied softly, "That's what my classmates call me."
Ye Qingqing smiled and said softly, "Can you come for a walk with me? Just the two of us."
Ye Mengjia didn't dare to look up, afraid of being discovered crying, and nodded again, "Okay."
Ye Qingqing took her hand and said to Master Ye and the others, "I'm taking Mengjia out for a walk to clear her head. It's nearby, is that alright?"
"Of course it's alright, little girl, you have to be good!" Yin Feng instructed.
Ye Mengjia nodded again, still not daring to look up. Mr. and Mrs. Ye felt a little sad. Their daughter was not only in poor health, but also had a quiet personality. She always lowered her head when she saw people. Her teacher also said that she didn't like to talk in class and didn't like to participate in group activities. She was very withdrawn. They were really worried. Their daughter was so lively and cute when she was little, and so lovable!
Ye Qingqing took Ye Mengjia out and found a dessert shop near the hospital. Girls love desserts, and Ye Mengjia was no exception. Ye Qingqing bought two cakes and two hot drinks, and found a seat to sit facing Ye Mengjia.
"I'm hungry, will you eat something with me?"
Ye Qingqing handed over a pack of tissues, gesturing for Ye Mengjia to wipe her eyes.
Ye Mengjia wiped her eyes shyly, her eyes red, and nodded again, though she seemed a little reserved. She wasn't used to interacting with strangers, but she really liked this beautiful older sister, who was even prettier than the stars on TV. She dreamed of becoming someone like her, but she probably couldn't!
"This cake is pretty good, you should try it."
Ye Qingqing gestured for the girl to eat the cake, and then started eating herself. Ye Mengjia hesitated for a moment, then scooped up a spoonful and put it in her mouth. The rich milky aroma filled her mouth, making her feel very satisfied. Ye Mengjia scooped up another spoonful and ate it, her expression relaxing considerably.
The two ate in silence. Ye Qingqing didn't ask anything, and Ye Mengjia became more and more relaxed, her guard slowly disappearing. When they were almost finished with the cake, Ye Qingqing casually asked, "You cried just now because you felt guilty, right?"
Ye Mengjia was taken aback, and her expression became wary again.
Ye Qingqing said with a smile, "I have a younger sister, not by blood. She was my patient at first. She had leukemia. When I met her, she was almost dead. Her head was this big."
She made an exaggerated gesture, as big as a watermelon, which immediately diverted Ye Mengjia's attention, making her listen intently, wanting to know how her younger sister with leukemia was doing now.
