Chapter 361: Too anxious
At the Shangjing Railway Station, a jeep was waiting at the exit. When it saw Lu Zhenping, it waved to him. When the two of them came up, it nodded to Shen Meng.
"Hello, I'm Bai Yan, Zhenping's cousin."
"Hello, Shen Meng."
Bai Yan smiled and opened the door. After the two of them got in the car, he turned to the co-pilot. The driver asked a few questions before starting.
"I know you don't want to live at home, so I'll arrange for you to stay in a guesthouse near the hospital. Your aunt is in the hospital now. Wait until you have a night's rest before you go to see her."
"Well!"
Bai Yan looked at Lu Zhenping's expressionless face and couldn't help but "tsk".
"It's been so many years. She's your mother after all. You shouldn't be so heartless. Can you be nicer to people when you meet them? Even for my dad's sake."
"Don't say so much. Turn away."
Bai Yan rolled his eyes, but still turned his head away. Now the whole family is waiting for Lu Zhenping to go to the hospital to meet Bai Shuyu. If he dares to show some respect to Lu Zhenping and makes him angry and turn away, the whole family will beat him to death.
"Are you tired? Take a good rest. Let's go eat something delicious later. I heard that the roast duck and hot pot in Shangjing are very good. Let's go and try them. Of course, no matter how delicious the food is, it can't be as good as your cooking."
Shen Meng glanced at him. She felt embarrassed to praise her in front of outsiders.
"From what you said, my sister-in-law is a good cook. Haha, isn't aunt in the hospital? Could you trouble my sister-in-law..."
"I don't think it's good to go to Beijing, Zhenping, let's go back tomorrow. The children are going to take exams and they are very busy."
Bai Yan: "........" He
looks gentle, but I didn't expect him to have such a bad temper! ! !
"My wife is right."
"No, no, no, I said the wrong thing, haha, I just think that aunt is my sister-in-law's mother-in-law after all. I heard that when she was in her hometown, she was very filial to that fake...the one who raised her mother-in-law. Isn't this to let you get closer to aunt!"
Shen Meng glanced at him and dozed off with her head on Lu Zhenping's shoulder. Lu Zhenping touched her hair and closed his eyes.
Bai Yan's face looked a little ugly, but he didn't dare to say anything.
Arriving at the guesthouse, Lu Zhenping and Shen Meng went through the formalities and went straight back to their room to rest. Bai Yan smiled at them but it didn't help.
"Really? I just said one wrong thing. You treat me like a servant and have no regard for family affection at all?"
Driver: "Third Master, what you said is right. Minister Lu has relied on himself all these years. You have looked up the information here. Minister Lu and Comrade Shen have built up their current reputation and prestige with their own abilities. Neither my family nor my aunt's family can help. They have just come to Beijing, and you let someone cook for them. You are too anxious."
Bai Yan said nothing after hearing this. He knew very well that he was too anxious, but his aunt's health was very poor because she missed Lu Zhenping too much. If he had married Nian Nian when he was in the army, his aunt would not have been separated from him for so many years.
"Let's go home."
Shen Meng and Lu Zhenping washed up in the room and began to lie down to rest. Riding the train was really tiring. Fortunately, the seat they bought was OK, otherwise she didn't know how she would get through the journey.
In the evening, Lu Zhenping woke up and saw Shen Meng was still sleeping. He got up and walked to the balcony to start smoking. Originally, he was scheduled to stay in Beijing for three days. After looking at Bai Yan's attitude today, he probably had an idea in his mind that he might not be able to leave for three days.
"Are you awake? Do you want to sleep a little longer?"
"Did I disturb you?"
"No, I'm awake too. Let's go out to eat something. I'm a little hungry."
Lu Zhenping nodded, helped Shen Meng get clothes and shoes, and the two of them packed up and left the guesthouse.
Shangjing was also very lively at night. Lu Zhenping and Shen Meng walked on the road for a while and saw a hot pot restaurant on the corner. It was very lively inside. Lu Zhenping ordered two servings of chicken soup hot pot and two servings of hot soup.
"Is it enough? If not, order something else."
"Okay, I heard that there is a place selling salted food near our guesthouse. Let's go and try it tomorrow morning!"
"Huh? I heard that the bean juice in Shangjing is very delicious. I also want to take you to try it. We had planned to stay for three days, but now I estimate that we can't go for three days. Let's taste the food in Shangjing. You have worked so hard these years. It's just the right opportunity to take you to relax."
Shen Meng: "............"
Relaxation is fine, but forget about the bean juice. I have drunk it. Thank you very much! ! !
The next morning, Bai Yan drove to the guesthouse himself. About five minutes later, he saw Lu Zhenping and Shen Meng coming out of the guesthouse.
"Good morning, have you had breakfast? Shall I take you to eat something?"
"We have already eaten. Let's go buy something first. It's not good to go to the hospital to see a patient empty-handed."
"Okay."
Although he only said one word, Bai Yan was very happy in his heart. When he saw the two of them yesterday, they looked dull and thought they would just go over and take a look, but he didn't expect them to buy something.
But think about it, one is the director of the provincial capital, and the other is the secretary-general who used to be in charge of the economy of a county, so they are still very polite.
Shen Meng and Lu Zhenping were just visiting an elder at the time and bought some common health-replenishing gifts. They were not expensive, but Bai Yan was very happy to see them.
"You bought so much? Let me get it. Aunt's ward is in the single room on the third floor. Nian Nian is taking care of her. Oh, Nian Nian is aunt's adopted daughter. Your sister-in-law has never met her. But people from our family, as well as uncle and cousin will be there soon."
"So many people are here, so is it appropriate for me and Zhenping to go there?"
"No, no, we are all family. What's appropriate or inappropriate? Well, let's get in the car first. When aunt heard that you were coming, she felt much better."
Shen Meng smiled at him. Lu Zhenping pursed his lips and said nothing. After all, she was his biological mother and he hadn't seen her for many years. It was impossible for him to not feel a little emotional. It's just that some of his expressions were invisible to outsiders, so Shen Meng noticed it and held his hand tightly.
The two looked at each other and got into the car without saying a word.
Bai Yan drove very fast, as if he was afraid that they would regret it. In less than ten minutes, they arrived at the hospital. After parking the car, he walked in front without taking anything.
Shen Meng was carrying fruits in one hand and high-calcium milk powder in the other. He pretended not to see it.
Lu Zhenping also had a lot of things in his hands. He looked at Bai Yan's back and felt a little depressed. They had already arrived at the hospital gate, how could they still run? They ran like rabbits, and there was no calmness and energy like in the army.
