"Hey, girl, slow down!"
"Daughter, don't run away!"
"Sis, you're pregnant with my nephew! Don't run away—"
Jiang Junrong, Zhou Wenjing, and Jiang Jinhua exclaimed in unison upon seeing Jiang Jinxiu's actions.
But at this moment, Jiang Jinxiu only had eyes for Gu Xichen and couldn't hear anything else.
However, she didn't hear it, but Gu Xichen did.
Gu Xichen was shocked when he saw his wife's actions.
He rushed to Jiang Jinxiu and picked her up.
My body was trembling slightly when I picked him up.
With so many people in the hospital, what if my wife trips and falls?
"Honey, you scared me to death! How could you run around like that? You can't run around like that again. Don't you remember you're carrying a baby?"
Gu Xichen felt a cold sweat break out on his back; this was a fear he had never experienced before.
Jiang Jinxiu then remembered that she was pregnant and couldn't help but stick out her tongue.
She used to remember her morning sickness a while ago, but now that she's better and her belly is still small, she doesn't feel anything. She forgets about it when she gets excited and sees him.
She didn't know why, but this time, she missed him terribly.
"I miss you."
A thousand words cannot compare to this one sentence.
Gu Xichen's various emotions were instantly soothed.
"Wife, I miss you too."
Gu Xichen took a deep breath of his wife's sweet fragrance...
"Cough cough cough..."
Suddenly, a coughing sound came from beside them.
Gu Xichen then realized that they were outside.
As soon as Gu Xichen released Jiang Jinxiu, he saw his brother-in-law's mocking gaze and his father-in-law and mother-in-law's faces, with only the backs of their heads visible to him.
I suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
Gu Xichen still had a lot to say to his wife, but seeing the situation, he could only tell her when he got back.
Just as he was about to walk with Jiang Jinxiu and the others, someone came from the other side and whispered something in his ear. His face then became much more serious.
He had no choice but to leave.
Gu Xichen couldn't help but hug his wife again: "Wife, there are still some things to do here, so I can't go with you. Wait for me at home. If nothing unexpected happens, I can go back tomorrow."
Take good care of yourself and the baby.
He was extremely reluctant to leave, but the responsibilities on his shoulders forced him to go first.
“Go ahead, she still has us,” Zhou Wenjing said as she walked over.
Her husband is a soldier, and her son-in-law is also a soldier; she's used to them being on missions at any time.
After greeting them one by one, Gu Xichen quickly left.
Jiang Jinxiu watched his retreating figure, filled with reluctance.
She doesn't know if it's because she's pregnant, but lately she's been feeling quite emotional.
Seeing his daughter like this, Jiang Junrong's heart ached.
...
The group went together to Xie Ji's hospital room.
At this moment, Xie Hongfu was telling Xie Ji about what had happened at the Gu family these past few days, gesturing excitedly. Xie Ji's smile never stopped.
When Xie Hongfu saw Jiang Jinxiu and the others come in, his eyes lit up and he was the first to run over to greet them.
Hello, uncles and aunts, brothers and sisters!
After saying that, he looked at Xie Ji and said, "Grandpa, these are the uncles, aunts, sisters and brothers I told you about. I've been staying at their house for the past few days."
Jiang Junrong's eyes lit up when he saw the old man. When he first heard the name, he had some guesses that it might be Xie Ji, whom he knew before.
But then I thought about how he had faded from public view in recent years, and I wasn't sure if it was him.
Xie Ji was a renowned doctor in Beijing. However, because he studied traditional Chinese medicine, he had been marginalized in recent years.
He gradually withdrew from the public eye after a family tragedy.
Recalling what Xie Hongfu had said before, and putting the two together, he finally understood why the old man had retired.
What impressed him even more was that this old man, even though he had retired, still made sure to share the good medicines he developed with the Chinese people.
Just as Xie Ji was about to say something, he heard the older middle-aged man opposite him speak up: "Old Xie, is it really you?"
Xie Ji looked over and felt that the person looked somewhat familiar, but he couldn't quite place who it was.
Seeing the confusion in Xie Ji's eyes, Jiang Junrong quickly offered an explanation.
It turns out that Jiang's mother had been seriously ill before, and someone recommended Xie Ji to him.
However, Jiang's mother disliked the bitterness of traditional Chinese medicine and made all sorts of excuses and disturbances.
In the end, it was only under Jiang Junrong's coercion and enticement that he obediently went to the doctor and took the medicine.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have such a strong voice now.
Jiang Jinxiu knew that her former grandmother had once been seriously ill, but she didn't know that the attending physician was Xie Ji.
"Your mother, is she still alive?"
After Jiang Junrong explained, Xie Ji immediately remembered who the person in front of him was.
Several years ago, Jiang Junrong had sought medical help from him.
He was a very filial son, but unfortunately he had such a mother.
His mother's favoritism is off the charts.
Even when she was sick, she didn't forget to squeeze some benefits from her youngest son to give to her eldest son.
He had never seen a mother act like this before.
Before Jiang Junrong could say anything, Jiang Jinhua said directly, "You have a strong voice, but we have already severed ties!"
Jiang Junrong glared at his son and then said, "She is not my biological mother. We are indeed no longer related."
"Good riddance. Your mother, I could tell at a glance she wasn't a good one."
After saying that, he looked at Jiang Jinxiu and said, "Girl, this old man doesn't want to go back to Beijing. Can I stay with you for a while?"
Don't worry, those bad guys have been arrested, and I've handed over the prescription.
I'll change my name later, then no one will know I live with you.
Xie Ji spent the whole day listening to his grandson talk about how wonderful the Gu family was, and his happy expression practically radiated from his face.
It's clear that he really likes the Gu family. How long has it been since he's seen his grandson smile so genuinely?
After careful consideration, he felt that living here was quite good.
There's nothing left to worry about in Beijing.
He had already decided that if the Gu family was willing to take him in, he would stay there temporarily and then try to buy a house in Gu Family Village later.
If all else fails, he will stay in the hospital temporarily, ask someone to buy him a house, and then be discharged.
How could Jiang Jinxiu not welcome a big name in traditional Chinese medicine? She wholeheartedly agreed, especially since they had other rooms available at their house anyway.
She believed that her husband and in-laws wouldn't mind either.
No one else present had any objection to Xie Ji's request.
Jiang Junrong and Zhou Wenjing even thought it was great that he could live with his daughter, after all, his daughter was carrying three babies.
Having someone with medical skills nearby provides an extra layer of protection.
Having a skilled doctor in the family is like having a pillar of strength.
Who wouldn't like that?
