"If there are any problems, we can face them together. Family members don't need to blame each other."
"sister."
Lin Banxia buried her face in Song Xunying's shoulder and couldn't help but sob softly.
Just then, several doctors suddenly walked over in a hurry and went straight into the operating room without saying a word.
Having so many doctors come for consultations is really not a good sign.
Song Xunying and Lin Banxia had no room to cry anymore. They quickly wiped their faces and anxiously walked to the operating room. They wanted to ask, but they really didn't know who to ask for information.
Knowing that the family members were getting anxious waiting outside, a nurse came out to report the news to them.
"The patient went into shock on the operating table just now. We managed to save him, but his condition is still not optimistic."
The nurse's expression was particularly solemn as she said this.
"Families, you need to be prepared for the worst at any time."
"how so……"
Lin Banxia released her grip on Song Xunying and staggered a few steps toward the operating room.
The glaring red light overhead seemed to burn her eyes, and two lines of tears uncontrollably slid down her cheeks. She moved her lips, unable to bear the blow any longer, and fainted on the spot.
"Pinellia, Pinellia!"
Song Xunying turned pale with fright and quickly squatted down to hug Lin Banxia.
"Oh no, Banxia's breathing is very weak now. We must find someone to save her as soon as possible, otherwise it may not be as simple as just fainting."
Cheng Yuanfang quickly called the doctor over. After a period of emergency treatment and CPR, Lin Banxia was put on a ventilator and sent to a ward.
After receiving Lin Banxia's test results, Song Xunying and Cheng Yuanfang looked at the series of shocking data, and their hearts sank to the bottom.
“No wonder, I felt something was wrong with Banxia the moment I first saw him.”
"Unexpectedly, not only did Mingqian have an accident, but Banxia's own health also deteriorated to this extent."
With both heart disease and a precarious mental state, how could Lin Banxia withstand even the slightest stimulation?
She might not even make it to Song Mingqian's full recovery before she herself passes away.
Song Xunying and Cheng Yuanfang swayed precariously, muttering incoherently.
"how so……"
Perhaps it's true that good people don't live long. This couple's fate was already difficult and bumpy enough, and God just had to play such a joke on them.

On the other side, Cheng Xiangling and Cheng Wan had already thoroughly inspected every nook and cranny of the house, and sprinkled some salt water on the ground in the house and yard to drive away bad luck.
After doing all that, the two sisters each brought out a stool and sat down in the yard to rest.
"It's been so long already. My parents must have gone home to do a big clean-up. They should be done by now. Why haven't we seen them yet?"
Cheng Xiangling had an ice cream in her mouth, fanning her sister to cool her down while peeking curiously outside the courtyard gate.
"Could something have happened to them? Should I go back and check?"
Cheng Wan felt extremely uncomfortable as well, but she still forced herself to cheer up and comfort her sister.
"Don't talk nonsense. It's broad daylight. Mom and Dad are just going home for a short while. They'll probably be back soon. Let's not rush them and wait a little longer."
Cheng Xiangling was also worried about leaving her sister, who had not fully recovered, alone here, and could only feel secretly annoyed.
As time ticked by, and there was still no news from their parents, Cheng Xiangling and Cheng Wan were truly worried.
I wanted to lock the gate and go back to check on them, but I was worried that my parents were already on their way and I might miss them halfway.
Just as she was getting anxious, Cheng Xiangling suddenly saw Grandpa Xie and Grandma Xie walking over.
She quickly put down her fan and got up to greet him.
"Grandpa Xie, Grandma Xie, what brings you here all of a sudden?"
Grandma Xie handed her a gift box with a smile.
"We heard you moved to your new house today, so we specially picked out some gifts to celebrate."
Cheng Xiangling and Cheng Wan exchanged a glance and, without prior agreement, chose to keep their concerns to themselves.
After all, today is a big day for Shen Zhihuan to retake the college entrance examination. If they tell Xie's grandparents that their parents have been out of contact for so long, Shen Zhihuan will definitely find out.
They didn't want their own family matters to affect the Xie family's mood, and they certainly didn't want to delay Chen Zhihuan's important life event.
The two sisters hid their emotions well, pretending nothing was wrong as they chatted with Grandpa Xie and Grandma Xie.
"Then we'll accept this gift. Thank you, Grandpa and Grandma. After Sister Zhihuan finishes her exams, we'll definitely treat you to a meal to celebrate."
"This child, why are you being so polite with us?"
Grandma Xie patted Cheng Xiangling's hand with amusement.
"Zhihuan has already told us that she wants to recognize you as her god-sister. We're all family, so let's not stand on ceremony. Now that we've moved so close, we should visit each other often."
Knowing that the Cheng family just moved in today, they'll definitely be busy.
Grandpa Xie and Grandma Xie didn't take up too much of their time; they exchanged a few words and left.
After seeing off the two elders, Cheng Xiangling and Cheng Wan exchanged a glance, then turned around and sat back down on the bench, resuming their sighing and complaining state.
"I didn't do much work today even though Qiu Shanshan helped me, so why do I feel so tired?"
"Me too."
The two sisters were upset, but fortunately, Song Xunying returned not long after.
Cheng Xiangling's eyes lit up, and she quickly grabbed her sister's hand and went to greet her, drawing out the last syllable of her words and acting all coquettish.
"Mom, you haven't come back for so long, my sister and I were so worried, we thought something had happened to you."
Cheng Wan looked around and, seeing that only Song Xunying was there, asked in bewilderment:
"Isn't Dad with you? Why is it only you who came back, Mom? Where did Dad go?"
Before Song Xunying could speak, Cheng Xiangling sniffed and, following the scent in the air, looked at the thermos her mother was carrying.
"We just moved to a new house today, why aren't you cooking here? And Mom, the groceries you brought look like they were bought from outside."
"Besides, I think this amount isn't enough for our family of four."
Song Xunying glanced helplessly at her two daughters: "You two keep saying one thing at a time, are you even letting me speak?"
Seeing the solemn expression on her face, Cheng Xiangling and Cheng Wan both felt a chill run down their spines and instantly understood what was going on.
"Mom, what happened? Please tell us! Is it my dad...?"
