"Brother-in-law, help my sister get down and walk around a bit. Qin Yi's car will be here soon. If she can't walk anymore, she can take the car. I'll carry her things."
"ah!"
Qin Qinghuai was already panicking. Jian Dan had gone into labor earlier than her due date, and Tang Sumei hadn't arrived yet. He was a bit flustered and agreed to almost everything Cheng An said. He helped Jian Dan slowly get off the bed and subconsciously bent down to hug her.
Cheng An carried a bundle, somewhat helplessly. Was it really appropriate for a young man who was still a minor to be in charge of this?
"Brother-in-law, let my sister walk around; it'll be good for her delivery."
"Huh? Oh, oh, then, wife, if you, if you're in pain, I,"
The pain came in waves, and Jian Dan didn't have the strength to argue with him.
"Alright, come and help me up,"
"Why!"
Qin Qinghuai, as if granted a pardon, carefully supported him.
The old lady, having received the news, was quick on her feet, with the old man following closely behind. Behind them were a group of children, two guards, and the Wang family from next door who came out after hearing the commotion. It has to be said, this was quite a large entourage.
"What's wrong? What's wrong with Jian?"
The old lady answered.
"Sigh, when I got back I said I wanted to go to the hospital to get checked out, but she was afraid people would think too much, so she wouldn't go. And then she comes here every night, sigh!"
Cheng An's lips twitched. They had heard about what happened that afternoon. Although they felt sorry for her sister, all things considered, her sister hadn't suffered a loss. As for that educated youth, even if they didn't do anything, their future days probably wouldn't be too smooth.
Adding to the old lady's sarcastic remark, Wang's temper will surely spread quickly, and that Sun Jianhong will probably be kicking herself.
Sure enough, Sister-in-law Wang immediately exploded.
"What a tragedy! I knew that young educated youth had no good intentions; she was just deliberately trying to annoy people. She had no good intentions at all."
Without hesitation, she also went out of the yard and joined the old lady, indignantly adding fuel to the fire for Sun Jianhong.
By the time they slowly made their way to the hospital, Jian Dan was soaked in sweat, but she felt confident she could manage. She refused to be carried or take a car.
Dr. Qin, the obstetrician who had just finished her shift, was hurriedly dragged back by Qin Yi to stand by. As soon as they entered the hospital, she quickly took over the case. Qin Qinghuai, along with the old lady and her group, were left outside the operating room. She only had one sentence...
"Wait!"
Jian Dan frequently came for checkups, and because of her relationship with Tang Sumei, Dr. Qin was also familiar with Jian Dan and didn't stand on ceremony with Qin Qinghuai.
Qin Qinghuai leaned against the wall, his legs weak and his whole body exhausted, his hands trembling.
The old lady and old man stood at the door, nervously taking small steps.
Cheng An and Cheng Rui exchanged a glance and sighed in unison.
"Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin, you should go back and eat first. We'll stay here and keep an eye on things. If anything happens, we'll run an errand for you."
"We're not leaving; we'll stay here and guard this place."
"Yes, we're not leaving. We can't stay back anyway, so we might as well stay here and watch over things."
The old man waved his hand, and Cheng An immediately followed up with a sentence.
"Grandpa Qin, if you're all staying here, my sister won't be able to rest easy, right?"
How about this, you go back and eat first. There are still some children at home. If we leave like this, won't they be frightened?
You guys go back and eat first. If you're really worried, you can come back later after you've eaten and drunk your fill. That's perfect. My sister didn't get to drink the chicken soup earlier. She'll be hungry after giving birth, won't she?
You see, my mom isn't here, and you know my sister's situation. My brother and I are still kids, we don't understand this, we only know the theory.
Brother-in-law, look at my brother-in-law, he probably doesn't feel like going back to cook either.
Grandma Qin, my sister can only rely on you and Grandpa Qin at times like this.
"How about you go back and cook some millet porridge and boil some eggs? My sister can have it as soon as she gives birth. What do you think?"
These words delighted the old lady, and the old man was also very pleased. They exchanged a glance, saw that there was no movement in the operating room, and then simultaneously gave their dazed son a look of disdain. They patted Cheng An, turned around, and walked out with their heads held high. They even whispered their opinions to each other at the door.
"You know what, this kid's mouth, even though you know he's doing it on purpose, it's really satisfying to hear."
"Yeah, really. This kid is way smarter than his dad. His dad is such a stubborn mule."
Look at all this commotion, so many people, and he's the only one who's calm. Look at how stupid the third brother is, he panicked when his own wife was giving birth.
What is this thing?
"What a piece of trash, what a disgrace!"
Cheng An breathed a sigh of relief, and Cheng Rui secretly gave him a thumbs up.
It has to be you again!
Qin Yi also laughed.
"That's right, Xiao An's mind works really fast. He knows exactly what they care about. He gets it right every time."
"You haven't eaten yet, have you? I'll go to the cafeteria and get you something to eat, okay?"
Cheng An shook his head.
"Forget it, Brother Qin Yi, we can't eat anymore either. Look, brother-in-law,"
Qin Qinghuai, having recovered a bit, was sitting down on a chair in the corridor when he heard this and turned to meet three pairs of eyes. He spoke in a hoarse voice...
"I'm not eating either, I'll just wait here."
Qin Qinghuai regretted not transferring Tang Sumei back sooner, or even just temporarily transferring her. It wasn't that he didn't trust other people's medical skills, but when it came to his wife, he trusted Tang Sumei more.
With his arm propped on his knee, nervously rubbing his hands, he stared intently at the operating room door. Cheng An and the others saw this but didn't try to persuade him; they sat down on the other side of the chairs and waited.
