After confirming from the doctor that her son was fine, Wang Po went back happily.
It’s good that you’re okay. It’s okay if you can’t walk, as long as you’re okay.
Hearing the old lady talking about her injury, Ling Xiao was silent for a while before saying, "Mom, I'm leaving the hospital and going back to recuperate."
The old lady paused for a moment, and looked at her son nervously with eyes without any anxiety, "Ling Xiao, your leg is not healed yet, how can you be discharged from the hospital? Let's at least heal your leg..."
"No need, I'll be discharged from the hospital in the afternoon." Ling Xiao had a calm expression. He knew the situation at home. Although the old and the young had his allowance, it was probably taken away by his second uncle's family.
It’s not that he didn’t notice when he came back to visit, but he was not at home and there was nothing he could do. The best thing was that they were not in danger.
The old lady didn't say anything more about her son's decision. She had originally planned to go back later as she was worried about the absence of anyone at home all day long.
Ling Cheng, who was playing nearby, crawled down from the bed next to him, "But, uncle, your leg isn't healed yet!"
Ling Xiao reached out and touched it, and said in a gentle voice, "Uncle's leg is fine, just go back and lie down."
"Uncle." The little girl stood up, her face serious, "Stand up and talk."
Ling Xiao was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "Little thing, you dare to tease your uncle."
Although Wang Po couldn't see it, she laughed out loud when she heard the conversation between her son and niece.
"Is this the place? Are you sure Ling Xiao is here?"
"If you can't find it, just ask?"
The dissatisfied voice outside interrupted the warm moment in the ward. When Grandma Wang heard the voice, she stood up quickly with a smile on her face, "It's my in-laws."
In-laws? Ling Xiao frowned slightly, put away the smile on his face, and leaned back gently...
In the corridor, Meng Qidi heard the old lady's voice and gently pulled the old man Meng in front of her, "In the ward in front."
"How do you know?" Meng Yuzhen asked suspiciously. Has she been here before?
No wonder, it turns out that she was attracted by him and was determined to marry Ling Xiao.
Meng Qidi glanced at her coldly and said, "Just because you are deaf doesn't mean others are deaf."
Meng Yuzhen was so angry that she vomited blood, "You! Xiaoqi, don't go too far!"
"Shut up!" Old Lady Meng said in a low voice, "Xiao Qi is right, I heard everything."
Old Lady Meng coldly left the two of them behind and walked away.
Meng Yuzhen looked over and saw, sure enough, a blind old woman and a dirty little girl poked their heads out. She frowned in disgust.
Fortunately, she didn't marry here, a lame man, a blind man, and a burden...
"Is...is it a relative?" Wang Po groped in the air with her hands.
Old Mrs. Meng walked over and said, "We are the grandparents of Meng Yuzhen and Meng Qidi."
Grandma Wang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Her grandpa and grandma are here, come in quickly, is Yuzhen here?"
Old Lady Meng glanced at Meng Yuzhen who was far away, and said with some displeasure, "They are all here."
Mrs. Meng immediately stepped aside and said with a smile, "Then hurry in and talk. Speaking of which, Yuzhen and Lingxiao haven't met yet!"
He wanted to cancel the engagement before his son's death. Now that Yuzhen is here, he hopes he can change his mind. Otherwise, given their family's situation, if the engagement is cancelled, it will be difficult for Ling Xiao to find a wife...
Old Mrs. Meng pulled the old man in, and Meng Yuzhen followed unhappily.
Meng Qidi sneered and followed. Speaking of marriages these days, couples get married blindly. Many of them only meet for the first time on the wedding night, and marriages are basically decided by the family.
When Ling Cheng, who was pushed aside, saw Meng Qidi behind him, his eyes lit up and he shouted crisply, "Fairy Sister! You came to see me, right?"
In the ward, a hint of surprise flashed across Ling Xiao's indifferent eyes. The one named Xiao Qi is here?
A rare smile flashed across Meng Qidi's face. She gently touched the little girl's head and said, "Yes, I came here specially to see you."
"Really?" Ling Cheng glanced around secretly and motioned Meng Qidi to squat down.
Meng Qidi squatted down suspiciously, "What's wrong?"
The little girl stood on tiptoe and leaned close to her ear, lowering her voice, "Sister Fairy, I gave a lot of the big red dates you gave me to my uncle. Sister, can you protect my uncle's legs?"
The innocent voice of the little girl made Meng Qidi slightly startled. Could it be? She really didn't know.
Fearing that the little girl would be disappointed, she nodded gently, "I will."
The little girl's eyes were curved with laughter. She knew that the things from the Fairy Sister would definitely make her uncle grow legs.
A man and a woman were talking at the door. Meng Yuzhen sneered and said that Xiao Qi came to see Ling Xiao secretly. Haha...
Not wanting to look at Meng Qidi again, Meng Yuzhen looked at Ling Xiao lying on the hospital bed. She didn't know Ling Xiao and this was the first time she saw him today.
What caught her eye was a pair of cold and sharp eyes. Meng Yuzhen's heart skipped a beat and she looked away in fear.
But when her eyes swept across the hideous scar at the corner of Ling Xiao's eye, her face turned pale and she quickly looked away.
Ling Xiao was also disfigured! The scar was so scary, and he was lame and ugly. He was a perfect match for Meng Qidi...
Ling Xiao did not miss the fear and disgust on Meng Yuzhen's face. He looked at the man who had been talking to his little niece at the door with a sneer.
Meng Qidi? The fairy in Xiaochengzi's mouth?
He looks handsome, but it seems that he had a bump on his forehead.
"Her grandpa and grandma, sorry, I'm a blind old woman and I can't see anything, you guys just sit anywhere."
When someone from the Meng family came, Wang Po was a little at a loss.
"It's okay, we just came to see Ling Xiao and talk about their marriage."
Old Mrs. Meng put the bag of ten eggs in her hand on the table.
Grandma Wang said quickly, "Marriage? We can easily discuss it. If your family thinks it's okay, we can send a matchmaker to your house tomorrow."
"No, I guess you misunderstood. We are getting married today, but we haven't set a date."
Old Man Meng glanced at Ling Xiao lying on the bed, somewhat dissatisfied with his old woman for being too slow.
"What about you?" Wang Po asked in confusion. Aren't you talking about the wedding date? What is that? Are you canceling the marriage?
Thinking of this, Wang Po felt cold in her heart. If the Meng family canceled the engagement, and her son also wanted to cancel it, she was afraid that her son's marriage would be...
Old Lady Meng pulled the old man and said with a smile, "It's like this, we want to switch the marriages of our two children. It was originally agreed that Yuzhen would marry Lingxiao, but now Xiaoqi wants to marry him."
She married? Ling Xiao, who was lying on the bed, looked at Meng Qidi at the door. After a moment, he chuckled, "No need to bother. Just cancel the engagement."
He has a lame leg and his family is in that situation, so why should he burden the girl?
Ling Xiao's words made the four members of the Meng family look over in shock.
Old Man Meng frowned, "What did you say?"
Ling Xiao lowered his eyes calmly, "I said that we should cancel our engagement. Marriage is irrelevant to each other."
The cripple actually didn't want to marry Xiaoqi? Meng Yuzhen was anxious and angrily said, "How can you cancel the engagement? How can Xiaoqi get married in the future? Her face is ruined, and she was abandoned by you, she..."
A hand was placed on Meng Yuzhen's shoulder, and Meng Yuzhen's voice suddenly stopped...
Meng Qidi pulled Meng Yuzhen away and looked at Ling Xiao steadily, "Let me talk to you."
Meng Yuzhen was thrown against the door, and she felt so much pain that she wanted to slap Meng Qidi a few times.
