"Xiao Song." Su Jin called Xiao Song and said, "Miao Miao said that your sense of taste has declined. Now you can only taste sour things."
Su Jin placed a plate of pickled radish strips cut into small pieces and a small plate of pickled vegetables that looked crisp and delicious in front of Song Jingcheng.
"Try this. I made it back home and brought it over. If you like it, take some back. I'll make it again later."
"Thank you, grandma." Song Jingcheng picked up the chopsticks and reached out to pick up a piece of pickled radish.
He was chewing the pickled radish and was about to praise it for being delicious when he heard Su Jin say, "You are Mu Tingyun's uncle, one generation older than Chen He. It's not appropriate for you to call me grandma."
Song Jingcheng: "..."
Su Jin pulled out a chair and sat down, then asked Song Jingcheng, "How does it taste?"
Song Jingcheng: "Sour."
Su Jin laughed out loud.
The medicinal stomach-nourishing porridge cooked by Su Jin tasted particularly rich and fragrant, and Song Jingcheng actually drank a small bowl of it.
After dinner, Shen He went to the bedroom to change clothes and touch up her makeup.
Su Jin asked Song Jingcheng, "Mr. Song, Miaomiao told me that you had trouble sleeping after you got sick. Did the aromatherapy sachets I gave you work?"
"The effect is very good." When Song Jingcheng mentioned this, he felt grateful to Su Jinsheng, "After using the sachet you prepared, I can sleep for five hours every night."
This is a rare thing.
Hearing this, Su Jin felt relieved.
Song Jingcheng stood up to say goodbye, and Su Jin suddenly took off her apron and said, "I'll see you off."
Seeing that Su Jin seemed to have something to say, Song Jingcheng hesitated for a moment before agreeing, "Thank you for your help, old man."
After walking out of the apartment door, Su Jin closed it and looked up at Song Jingcheng with an extremely serious look.
Song Jingcheng looked at the old man silently.
He felt a little confused.
"Mr. Song, you're Mu Tingyun's uncle, so you're Miaomiao's elder. But you're still single, and you avoided Mu Tingyun to come to my house for dinner today. That's not what a respectable elder would do."
"I also hope Mr. Song will not cause trouble for Miaomiao. I don't want to hear outsiders gossiping about her, saying she's two-timing and fickle."
"Mr. Song, I know better than anyone how damaging rumors can be. Our Miaomiao, even though her father doesn't love her and her mother doesn't care for her, as long as I'm alive, I won't allow anyone to mistreat her!"
Faced with Su Jin's condemnation and threats, Song Jingcheng was neither angry nor refuted.
"Chen He is truly blessed to be protected and cared for by someone like you."
“Please believe me, I will never do anything to damage Shen He’s reputation.”
As for playing both sides...
Oh.
How could that be?
A broken boat should be chopped up and used as firewood. How could it be worthy of being stepped on by Chen He?

Ma Kai stood at the window at the end of the elevator hall and smoked.
Seeing Song Jingcheng coming over, he quickly fanned the smell of cigarettes out the window, "Mr. Song." He pressed the cigarette into the ashtray above the trash can and pressed the elevator button.
Staring at the decreasing elevator floor, Song Jingcheng suddenly asked Ma Kai: "What do you think of the relationship between Grandma Su and Chen He?"
Without a second thought, Ma Kai said: "They are the most important relatives in each other's lives, relying on each other."
Song Jingcheng asked again: "How is Grandma Su's health?"
"She's quite healthy and a very energetic little old lady. I'd say she could live for another decade or so."
"Um."
Song Jingcheng didn't say anything else.
He lowered his head, fiddled with the vintage ring on his thumb, and suddenly said, "What month is it?"
Ma Kai: “It’s almost May.”
Song Jingcheng: "It's not far from July."
"Huh?" Ma Kai was confused. He asked Song Jingcheng, "Is there anything important happening in July?"
"I don't know yet." Shaking his head, Song Jingcheng walked out of the elevator first.
Just as I walked to the car, I suddenly received a WeChat video call from Shen He.
After hesitating for a while, Song Jingcheng still answered the video call.
"Mr. Song, are you still in the underground garage?" Chen He recognized that the environment behind Song Jingcheng was an underground garage.
She trotted into the elevator and told Song Jingcheng, "Wait a few minutes. I have something for you."
Song Jingcheng said, "I'll take the pickled radish."
"It's something else."
Chen He easily found Song Jingcheng in the underground garage.
Ma Kai was sitting in the car, while Song Jingcheng was leaning against the front of the car, with his head down, not knowing what he was thinking about.
Shen He ran towards him in small steps.
Opening the bag, Chen He took out a talisman from his inner pocket and handed it to Song Jingcheng, "Uncle, this is a health talisman drawn by the abbot of Chang'an Temple in Kyoto. I asked my grandmother to ask for one for you."
Staring at the talisman, something flashed in Song Jingcheng's eyes, "Do you still believe this?"
Chen He shrugged, "Just take it as a good omen."
Chen He directly stuffed the talisman into Song Jingcheng's palm and said, "I'm going to work now. Goodbye."
Watching Chen He get into her own car, Song Jingcheng lowered his head and carefully examined the talisman in his palm.
In the first few years after Song Jingcheng fell ill, his mother also asked for health talismans, safety talismans, and good luck talismans for Song Jingcheng.
But the one Shen He gave him was slightly different from the ones he had seen before.
They are all quacks, so it is normal that they are different.
Song Jingcheng folded the talisman, thought about it, and put it in the ID folder.
As soon as the two returned to the Dongye Health Villa, they saw a tall and strong young man standing in front of the house, wearing a police uniform.
It’s Shen Sri.
Seeing that Song Jingcheng finally came back, Shen Sili smiled stiffly and walked towards Song Jingcheng with an envelope.
"Hello, Mr. Song, I am Shen Si..."
