Chapter 59 Grandma is discharged from the hospital
On the weekend, Zhou Jingyu was going to attend a cocktail party in the evening and originally wanted Chen Zan to accompany her.
It was just that grandma was discharged from the hospital that day, and she had already known in advance that Xu Anan would attend with her father, so she wanted to invite him to attend the school fundraising event in person.
Chen Zan always felt that there was a huge gap between her and Zhou Jingyu's status, and that separation was a matter of time. She didn't want to expose this relationship to people around her, so she politely declined Zhou Jingyu's invitation.
Although the man felt it was a pity, he didn't say anything because Chen Zan used his grandmother's discharge from the hospital as an excuse.
He got up early in the morning, watched her finish breakfast, and then drove her to the hospital gate.
Before getting off the car, Chen Zan was held in Zhou Jingyu's arms and kissed hard. His light pink lips turned deep red, and when they separated, a silver streak was left.
He rubbed the corner of her mouth with his fingertips reluctantly and said, "You really won't let me go up?"
Chen Zhan shook his head and said politely, "Forget it. I'm afraid that when grandma sees you, she'll get too excited, which won't be good for her recovery."
In fact, it was just a matter of Chen Jiaohua saying clearly that she didn't want to see these powerful children.
In the morning, Zhou Jingyu suggested that he would visit his grandmother in the name of the old lady of the Zhou family when she was discharged from the hospital, but was rejected by Chen Zan once.
Zhou Jingyu brought it up again. After Chen Zan refused, although he looked cold, he didn't say he had to go.
He placed another soft kiss on the corner of her lips before releasing her: "Go ahead."
Chen Zhan pursed his lips and said, "Let's go."
It was not convenient to park for a long time in front of the hospital. Chen Zhan turned and headed towards the hospital only after seeing Cullinan merge into the traffic flow.
But the moment she turned around, she froze in place. Xu Jing appeared outside the hospital gate, looking at her with a scrutinizing look.
The smile on his face slowly faded, and he clenched his palms and asked, "Mom, why are you here?"
She didn't know when Xu Jing stood here, and how much she saw, and she was extremely nervous.
"I went home last night to get some clothes for my grandma." Xu Jing asked directly, "Whose car did you say you got out of?"
Chen Zhan's breathing tightened, and he said stiffly, "Well, An An's driver brought me here. She's going to a cocktail party tonight, and I helped her choose an evening gown last night."
His mind was racing, fearing that Xu Jing would call Xu Anan to confirm the authenticity of the matter.
Xu Jing knew Xu Anan and knew that there was a girl in her dormitory who was the daughter of Xu's Real Estate in Rongchuan. Her family was very rich and she had a good relationship with her. She had even met her grandmother many times, and her grandmother also liked this girl very much.
Fortunately, Xu Jing only gave her a suspicious look before saying, "You need someone to send you to the hospital. When did you become so squeamish? Don't cause trouble for others in the future."
Chen Zhan's palms were already wet with sweat after hearing this casual remark. He replied meekly, "I know, Mom."
Fortunately, Xu Jing probably didn't see anything and didn't doubt her lame excuse. She was also glad that Zhou Jingyu was not driving the Audi sedan with the license plate number that appeared many times in news reports.
Xu Jing: "Let's go, Director Gu has already completed the discharge procedures for your grandmother."
Seeing that she didn't suspect anything, Chen Zan breathed a sigh of relief.
My grandmother had had surgery before and had all her hair shaved off, so on the day she was discharged from the hospital, Chen Zan gave her a few beautiful hats that he had prepared long ago.
Ms. Chen, who loves beauty, was worried that she would lose her hair and look ugly. This hat was exactly what she wanted. She couldn't wait to put it on as soon as she got it.
Director Gu praised the grandmother for living in the countryside before, where she was busy with flowers and plants and kept her body in good shape, so she recovered well after the operation. Other elderly people were not as energetic as she is now.
After being discharged from the hospital, she would need at least a few months of recuperation to fully recover. Xu Jing did not allow her to return to her small courtyard in the countryside and took her to live with her.
After the New Year, when she has recovered, we can decide whether to let her go back and live with us.
Chen Jiaohua had been reluctant to move to the city before, firstly because she was reluctant to leave the yard she had taken good care of, and secondly because she felt that she and Xu Jing had incompatible personalities. Now that she had recovered from this serious illness, the relationship between mother and daughter had eased a lot, and she didn't object to moving to Xu Jing's place, but she felt bad that if she didn't go back, no one would take care of the flowers.
After hearing this, Xu Jing said speechlessly, "I'll pay for the neighbors to come over and water your flowers every now and then. Is that okay?"
Chen Jiaohua snorted twice, "You have more money, so you pay."
Xu Jing: "So, what's more important, your recovery after surgery or your flowers and plants?"
Seeing that the mother and daughter were about to quarrel again, Chen Zhan quickly said, "It's okay, grandma. I can help you go to the countryside when I have time this weekend and take pictures for you."
Chen Jiaohua: "Zhanzhan, is this too much trouble for you?"
Chen Zhan shook his head and quickly said, "It's not a big deal, and winter vacation will be here soon."
Xu Jing frowned upon hearing this and said, "Aren't you preparing for the competition? How can you have so much time and energy to worry about other things?"
When Chen Zan heard this, he knew that the rhythm was about to start again, so he quickly winked at Director Gu, and Gu Wenjun immediately reacted and pulled Xu Jing away.
"Xiao Jing, let's take the things down first and drive the car over. Let Zhanzhan accompany Auntie down."
Only then did Xu Jing stop what she was about to say.
The rooms at home had been cleaned up a long time ago. Chen Jiaohua was particular about where she lived. She disliked the coldness of her home, which didn't even have a single green plant. She said she would go to the flower market and buy two pots of flowers the next day.
Chen Zhan stayed by her side, fearing Xu Jing would suddenly lose her temper after hearing this. He didn't know if Director Gu had said anything to her, but this time, she remained silent, letting Chen Jiaohua pick on her without getting angry.
Seeing that Xu Jing didn't respond to her suggestion, Chen Jiaohua gave up.
Gu Wenjun dragged Xu Jing to the kitchen to make lunch. Grandma then whispered in Chen Zhan's ear, "Director Gu is quite good. He can actually control Xu Jing's bad temper. Not bad, not bad."
It's like the mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law and becomes more and more satisfied.
Chen Zhan didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he heard this, "So, Grandma, you did this on purpose."
No wonder after entering the house, he complained about this and that. He just wanted to make Xu Jing angry and go back home alone.
However, Chen Zan had to go back to school to attend classes, and Xu Jing had to return to the orchestra to work after her vacation. Director Gu couldn't come here every day, so they finally decided to hire a nanny to take care of them for two months.
My grandmother thought hiring a nanny was a waste of money, as she felt that she could walk very fast now. However, she was met with collective opposition, and everyone agreed that hiring a nanny was a way to save trouble.
In the evening, Xu Anan sent her a photo of her wearing an evening gown in front of a mirror and sent a message saying, "Going out tonight, only success is allowed, no failure."
When Chen Zhan saw the message, he couldn't help but laugh and replied with two words: "Keep going."
