Sister Wang looked suspicious. She reached out and saw the blue striped hospital gown and the needle sticking out of the back of her hand. Only then did she believe that she was indeed in the hospital, and she immediately underwent surgery.
"Do I really have a heart condition?"
Sister Wang muttered to herself, her expression very strange. No wonder she had been feeling chest tightness and shortness of breath lately. She had been wanting to get checked out, but kept putting it off. Fortunately, nothing serious happened this time; she couldn't bear to die.
Ye Qingqing grumbled, "You've already had surgery, why don't you believe it? Aren't your son and daughter both doctors? How could you not see such obvious signs of heart disease? Luckily you ran into me and Grandma, otherwise... Humph!"
She swallowed the rest of her words, as it was considered unlucky to say such things in a hospital.
However, she wasn't exaggerating. If she hadn't used the golden needles to keep Sister Wang alive, the old lady would definitely be lying in the morgue now—no, the crematorium—and might have already been burned to ashes.
Sister Wang's eyes were strange, with a hint of gratitude. In fact, although she couldn't move while unconscious, she was conscious, even more so than usual, and she had just remembered everything.
Those so-called friends who were usually close to her all shirked their responsibilities at the crucial moment. On the contrary, Gu Nianci, whom she targeted the most, stepped forward. Moreover, she could feel that this little girl was pricking her with golden needles. After the needles were inserted, her pain was obviously relieved.
This shows that the young girl is truly skilled in medicine; she could tell at a glance that the girl had a heart condition and even saved her life.
"Thank you," Sister Wang said sincerely.
She looked old and haggard without makeup, but her face was kinder and less harsh than when she was wearing makeup.
Ye Qingqing was a little taken aback by the kindness of Sister Wang. After a moment of stunned silence, she awkwardly said, "It was nothing, no need to be so polite. By the way, what are your children's phone numbers? I haven't heard from them yet."
Sister Wang's expression turned somber, and after a long while, she gave a self-deprecating laugh. "No need to contact them anymore. Just hire a caregiver for me. They're too busy with work to find the time."
"No matter how busy you are, you still have to come to the hospital, right? You can't be busier than the president, can you? Give me the phone number, and I'll call them now."
Ye Qingqing guessed that there must be a hidden story; Wang Jie's children were definitely not as filial as she claimed.
Sister Wang hesitated for a moment, then gave her eldest son's phone number, her eyes filled with hope. Actually, she also wanted her children to come to the hospital to see her. It didn't matter at other times, but when she was sick, she especially needed company. Sigh, if only her husband were still here.
Ye Qingqing dialed her eldest son's phone number. It was almost dark, and even if her eldest son was at work, his wife was definitely home. The call was answered shortly by a woman.
"Is this Liang De'an's family? His mother is at the Second People's Hospital..."
Ye Qingqing briefly described Sister Wang's situation. She guessed that this woman was the eldest daughter-in-law. Her voice sounded quite gentle, but she didn't know what her temper was like. However, she soon found out.
"De'an isn't home. He's so busy he doesn't even have time to sleep. You should ask the second brother and the others."
She slammed down the phone, leaving only the dial tone. Ye Qingqing stared at her phone in astonishment, thinking to herself, "Damn it!"
If your son doesn't have time, surely you, as his wife, do? Can't you come to the hospital?
"You and your eldest daughter-in-law don't get along well?" Ye Qingqing asked definitively.
Sister Wang gave a wry smile, feeling somewhat embarrassed, because she used to boast that her two daughters-in-law were exceptionally filial and considerate towards her, even more so than her own daughters. Now, all her boasts had been proven false.
