Chapter 130
The next day, when Mu Qingxuan got up again, she heard Huo Changfeng say that Chen Hongxia and Sun Hongtao had borrowed a donkey cart from the village and rushed to the town to find a hospital at night.
Because of this, the affairs of the Sun family spread throughout the village overnight.
When Mu Qingxuan was squatting at the door playing with the big yellow dog, she heard everyone talking.
"The old woman in the Sun family is getting more and more absurd as she gets older. She actually asked her cousin's daughter to give birth to her son's child. The son didn't want to, but she forced the two of them to have a done deal..."
"Tsk, you make it sound so easy, but don't forget that Chen Hongxia is also a hen that can't lay eggs. Isn't that the old woman worried that the Sun family will be extinct, so she took such a desperate measure?"
"So did Sun Hongtao and Shi Jingyu succeed in the end?"
"Probably not. I heard that Sun Hongtao cut off his own vitals with a knife, and ran to the little girl from the Mu family for treatment in the middle of the night."
"Oh my god, this is too cruel. There is a ready-made opportunity here. He can sleep with another woman and have another son to carry on the family line. Why doesn't Sun Hongtao cherish it? I think Shi Jingyu is pretty."
"What do you think? Could it be that Sun Hongtao is not good enough?"
Everyone was talking about it, saying all kinds of things.
Mu Qingxuan inadvertently listened for a while and felt disgusted. She turned back into the house and closed the door.
Trying to block out the noise and discussion outside.
In the room, Huo Changfeng was packing their luggage.
In a blink of an eye, the two had been in Lotus Village for several days, and the National Day holiday was almost over.
The two of them have to take the train back to the capital early tomorrow morning.
Mu Qingxuan and Huo Changfeng looked at each other, and she ran straight to Yao Jinglan who was lying on a lounge chair basking in the sun.
She took a deep breath, ran over on the golden spots on the ground, moved a small stool, and sat down next to Yao Jinglan.
“Grandma, you really won’t go to the capital with me?”
This topic was discussed with Yao Jinglan on the first day they arrived in Lotus Village.
But Yao Jinglan's attitude softened at the time, but she did not agree directly.
During the past few days, whenever Mu Qingxuan had free time, she would find opportunities to stay by Yao Jinglan's side and try to persuade her to take her to the capital.
Yao Jinglan was wearing reading glasses, and her skinny fingers were slowly threading the needle. The silver needle glowed coldly in the setting sun, and she never raised her eyes to respond.
Mu Qingxuan was not discouraged and continued, "I have been with you these days, grandma, are you happy too?"
"But if you don't come with us, when Changfeng and I leave tomorrow, you'll be alone again. How lonely you will be."
Yao Jinglan's eyelids moved slightly.
Seeing this, Mu Qingxuan knew there was hope and continued to persuade.
But Yao Jinglan has not expressed her opinion, as if she is still hesitating about something.
The warm autumn sun shone obliquely in the courtyard, and Mu Qingxuan was leaning against Yao Jinglan and trying to persuade her.
Suddenly, her face turned pale, she covered her stomach tightly with both hands, and cried out in pain.
Her body trembled violently, and beads of sweat instantly appeared on her forehead, as if she would be swallowed by pain in the next second.
Huo Changfeng, who was packing his luggage in the room, heard the sound, and the clothes in his hands fell to the ground, and he rushed out in a few steps.
He half-knelt in front of Mu Qingxuan anxiously, holding her shoulders carefully but firmly with his hands, his voice full of anxiety and worry.
"Xuanxuan, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable? Don't scare me!"
In those deep eyes, there was only Mu Qingxuan's painful expression at this moment, and the anxiety and heartache almost overflowed from her eyes.
Yao Jinglan no longer cared about her previous reserve. She hurriedly took off her reading glasses and stood up from the recliner tremblingly.
Her wrinkled face was full of nervousness, and her voice was obviously trembling: "Qingxuan, is the fetus unstable?"
The old man stretched out his skinny hand, wanting to touch Mu Qingxuan but afraid of aggravating her discomfort, so his hand, which was hanging in the air, trembled slightly.
Mu Qingxuan bit her lower lip tightly, her facial features wrinkled tightly in "pain", she just kept shaking her head and never spoke a word, looking extremely pitiful.
Huo Changfeng's heart jumped into his throat when he saw this. He picked her up without saying a word, and said in a hurried and firm tone: "I'll take you to the hospital now!"
Just as he was about to pick up Mu Qingxuan by the waist, he inadvertently raised his eyes and met Mu Qingxuan's gaze.
The moment their eyes met, he caught the clarity in Mu Qingxuan's eyes, as well as the cunning hidden in her quietly blinking eyes.
Huo Changfeng was stunned for a moment, then he understood.
There was no flaw on his face, and his anxious expression was portrayed even more realistically.
He walked out of the hospital quickly while holding Mu Qingxuan in his arms, gritting his teeth and saying, "I really hate that we are not in the capital right now. It will take at least several hours to get to the hospital in town from here."
"Xuanxuan, you must hold on, nothing must happen to you!"
Huo Changfeng kept walking, his voice full of self-blame and worry, as if his mind was truly occupied by fear and panic.
Mu Qingxuan in his arms leaned weakly on his chest, but her fingertips gently pinched his back.
Avoiding Yao Jinglan's gaze, Mu Qingxuan curled the corners of her lips speechlessly.
For the first time, she discovered that Huo Changfeng had the potential to be an actor.
This performance is too realistic.
Yao Jinglan's skinny hands tightly grasped the corner of Mu Qingxuan's clothes, tears welled up in her cloudy eyes, and a suppressed sob came from her throat.
She fumbled tremblingly for the handkerchief in her pocket, but could not wipe away the tears that kept flowing out, and her voice was filled with tears.
"What should I do... What should I do..."
The old man's hunched back rose and fell violently, as if he would be crushed by fear in the next second.
Mu Qingxuan looked at Yao Jinglan's pale lips and trembling fingertips, and a feeling of bitterness arose in her heart.
She gently patted the back of Huo Changfeng's hand, signaling him to let her go.
As soon as her feet touched the ground, she staggered forward and held the old man's cold hand tightly.
"Grandma, don't worry."
She placed Yao Jinglan's hand on her warm cheek and said in a soft but firm voice, "Look, I'm fine now. I just felt a little pain, but I'm all better now."
"How can I feel at ease when you were like that just now?"
Yao Jinglan's tears dripped onto their clasped hands: "My face turned pale from the pain, and beads of sweat kept dripping down..."
Her voice gradually trailed off, filled with fear.
Mu Qingxuan's eyelashes trembled slightly, and a hint of cunning flashed in her eyes.
She put her arms around Yao Jinglan's shoulders and rubbed the old woman's cheek like a coquettish kitten.
"Since grandma is so worried, why don't you come back to the capital with us? This way you can watch over me every day. With you by my side, I'm sure nothing will happen to me."
She raised her head, her eyes sparkling with anticipation: "Grandma, please promise me, I'm alone outside, and I'll feel at ease only if you accompany me."
