Xie Jing didn't smile. "I just heard you say your son was sick. Is it serious? I remember your son wasn't very old, right?"
Uncle Feng wiped his face and said, "Yes, I found out during a physical examination at the hospital a few days ago. He just graduated from college... If I can't afford the medical expenses, he will have to wait for death in the hospital."
"My wife and I worked so hard to raise him. In just two years, he'd be getting married and having children. Now he's got this disease...what's his mother going to do? Are we really going to have to see him die young?"
Xie Jing didn't hesitate: "How much more do you need?"
Zhou Jiyun's eyes also fell on Uncle Feng. "If it's convenient, could you please leave me your contact number so I can send someone to the hospital to check on him? I'll find the best doctor for him and will also do my best to help find a kidney donor."
If they could plant a nail in the Liu family, it would be easier for them to gather information in the future.
What does it mean to see the light at the end of the tunnel? It is now. Uncle Feng never expected that when he was on the verge of despair, Xie Jing and Zhou Jiyun suddenly appeared and extended a helping hand to him.
Uncle Feng wiped away his tears. "The monthly dialysis costs over 8,000... and there's also the cost of preparing for a kidney transplant... I've saved some money over the years, but it's still not enough."
Zhou Jiyun understood: "Wait for me, I'll make a call."
Xie Jing knew that he was referring to Brother Yaofan, and that was indeed the case.
Brother Fan was in a state of panic after receiving the call: "What good thing can I do to take care of my brother?"
Zhou Jiyun said softly, "I met an uncle here. His son is sick. Brother Fan, can you help run a trip? The medical expenses are not a problem."
Brother Fan became more serious: "Liu family?"
"Hmm," Zhou Jiyun glanced in Old Feng's direction and said, "He's a gardener from the Liu family. He's been working there for many years."
Brother Fan obviously understood what he meant: "Okay, give me his number and I'll go with him personally."
"I'll leave everything up to you." Zhou Jiyun said softly, "After all, it's not convenient for us to show up."
"I understand. You're being watched closely," Brother Fan whistled nonchalantly. "As long as the money's in place, we can do any job."
Zhou Jiyun smiled, and when he returned to the recliner, Lao Feng had already talked about the sadness and pain he had experienced during this period.
"The child's mother wasn't in good health to begin with, and when the child suddenly became ill, she couldn't hold on any longer and was recently hospitalized. I'm like a candle burning at both ends..."
"I begged Mr. Liu for help, but he wouldn't listen to the suffering of a nobody like us..."
Xie Jing handed him a pack of tissues and said, "Don't worry, Uncle Feng. Now that we've encountered this, we won't sit idly by. If we didn't know, it would be fine. But now that we know, we can't just sit there and watch."
Zhou Jiyun also spoke: "Don't worry, give me your phone number and someone will go to the hospital with you. I will take full responsibility for your child's medical expenses and so on. Anything that can be solved with money is not a big problem."
Uncle Feng's tears flowed down his cheeks: "Thank you, Miss Xie Jing, and thank you, uncle."
Zhou Jiyun raised his hand: "It's just that I don't want others to know about this."
Xie Jing quickly explained, "We're just guests after all. If my uncles knew about this, they'd be embarrassed. We'd also be blamed. Better to keep out of trouble than to worry about it."
"Uncle Feng, it will be hard for you to explain it later, so it will save you from having to do it."
Uncle Feng nodded quickly: "Don't worry, young lady and uncle, I promise I won't tell anyone."
Zhou Jiyun nodded: "That's good. Jingjing and I will go to the hospital to visit you if it's convenient in the future. But today is grandma's birthday party after all, so we can't leave."
Uncle Feng couldn't think of anything else. After receiving Brother Fan's call, he and the housekeeper asked for leave and rode his electric scooter out of the Liu family villa.
Zhou Jiyun looked at Uncle Feng's back as he left, and suddenly raised his eyebrows slightly: "Do you think Uncle Feng will bring us a surprise?"
Xie Jing: "Whether it's a surprise or not, that's all. If I can save his son's life by spending money, then I think it's worth it."
"Of course, if Uncle Feng knows something, that would be great. Even if he knows nothing, I wouldn't feel sorry for him. After all, even if he's not an employee of the Liu family, even if he's just a stranger I've never met."
"If he really encounters difficulties, I will help him."
Zhou Jiyun held Xie Jing's hand: "That's why I said you are soft-hearted. You look cold, but you are actually the softest-hearted one."
"That's not the case with me."
Xie Jing glanced at him sideways. "I can see that you're a typical example of someone who appears warm on the outside but is actually cold on the inside. That's fine. As long as you don't break the law, don't do anything immoral, and don't hurt others, no one has the right to criticize your character."
Zhou Jiyun smiled: "You are really tolerant."
Xie Jing gently pushed him: "I just accept this. The view I have always adhered to is to mind your own business."
Zhou Jiyun seemed unhappy: "Am I someone else? Huh?"
Xie Jing knew it was happening again: "No, you are my husband, right? What's wrong with you? I just like hearing people call you husband."
"Only to you," Zhou Jiyun hugged her tightly, "Just you are enough. I was so panicked and scared before, but now that you are by my side, I am so grateful."
"I'm grateful that you're by my side. I'm grateful that you accepted my past without any qualms and stood by me without backing down."
Xie Jing smiled and patted the back of Zhou Jiyun's hand: "Didn't I say it? I will always firmly choose you. And all of this is expressed through actions."
Zhou Jiyun smiled: "That's great."
The two stayed in the greenhouse until three in the afternoon, when Grandma Liu and the others who were taking their lunch break woke up. Xie Jing and Zhou Jiyun also arrived in the living room, where everyone just sat there, drinking tea, playing with their phones, or chatting.
Seeing Xie Jing and Zhou Jiyun always together, Liu Quan couldn't help but feel a little jealous and once again complained to her aunt Liu Limin. If it was him who married Zhou Jiyun, how could Xie Jing be so proud?
Although old, Grandma Liu was not at all confused. She knew from Liu Quan's expression that she was feeling unbalanced. From an angle where no one was paying attention, Grandma Liu glared at Liu Quan, signaling her to restrain herself.
Did she really think Zhou Jiyun was just an ordinary grandson-in-law? It could be said that today was her birthday, and Xie Jing could come or not. Because of that paper agreement, Grandma Liu would be short of breath when facing Zhou Jiyun and Xie Jing.
Especially when she thought of Xie Jing...if Xie Jing had no connection with the Liu family, Grandma Liu was unconsciously lost in thought. If Xie Jing cut off her relationship with the Liu and Xie families, would she be able to completely let go of the things in her heart?
