Chapter 298
Today is New Year's Eve, and the sound of firecrackers outside has been continuous since early in the morning.
Qin Xiang got up and opened the door, and saw Miao Sheng standing outside, and asked hurriedly, "What happened?" "
My uncle fainted and has gone to the hospital now."
If it wasn't for this matter, Miao Sheng would not dare to knock on the door at this time.
The two hurriedly put on their clothes and went downstairs, heading straight to the hospital.
Meng Huaiqing frowned, "Do you know what happened now?"
Miao Sheng shook his head, "I don't know yet, I didn't have time to ask."
Fortunately, there were not many people on the road early in the morning, and the car drove very fast, and it took more than ten minutes to reach the hospital.
The man was still in the emergency room. Ge Lijuan and several bodyguards were waiting outside anxiously. When she saw Meng Huaiqing coming, the old lady seemed to have found her backbone. She threw herself into Meng Huaiqing's arms and started crying, "If he dies, it's all my fault, it's all my fault."
The old lady cried sadly. Qin Xiang guessed something after hearing this. Who knows what the old lady said to make Master Ge angry.
The matter that could make the old lady so protective must be Jiang Licheng's family.
She couldn't help but glance at Ge Lijuan. Although the mother-son relationship was there, Jiang Licheng's character was not accustomed to her indulgence.
Qin Xiang didn't say anything, Meng Huaiqing just comforted her, "Grandma, don't cry yet, wait until uncle comes out."
The operation was not over for a while, and after a while Qin Baotian and others also heard the news and came over. Seeing that the operation was still going on, they went back to make some food for Ge Lijuan to eat first.
Ge Lijuan shook her head, "I don't have an appetite to eat at this time."
As soon as these words came out, the scene suddenly became awkward.
Qin Baotian stood there a little uncomfortable.
He was kind enough to send some food to her because she was old, but he ended up saying such things.
Qin Xiang and Meng Huaiqing couldn't help frowning. Without waiting for Qin Xiang to speak, Meng Huaiqing said, "Uncle Qin, thank you. My grandmother is worried that my uncle can't eat. Qin Xiang and I will eat something."
The three of them went to the side and opened the incubator. There was millet porridge with yam in it, and there was also a bucket of soft noodles. Both kinds of rice were prepared for the old lady.
Qin Xiang and Meng Huaiqing ate a bowl each. Ge Lijuan looked at them and didn't say anything several times.
After dinner, Qin Xiang said to Qin Baotian, "Dad, you go back first. My fourth sister and the others are coming over today. You go back and get busy. Huaiqing and I will stay here."
This year is the first year after Qin Yang and Zhao Qian got married, so the two of them are going to come to the capital to celebrate the New Year. At Qin Baotian's invitation, Zhao Wenbo and his wife also came, otherwise they would be lonely in the provincial capital. Qin Hai and his wife also came with their two children, but Huang Lifen's parents refused to come and stayed alone in the provincial capital to celebrate the New Year.
As the head of the family, Qin Baotian had a lot of things to do, so he could only take the things back.
Although he was not happy, he didn't care too much about an old man. Before leaving, he told Qin Xiang, "Don't be angry, she is also worried."
Qin Xiang nodded, but she didn't agree in her heart.
Maybe the two of them quarreled over Jiang Licheng's matter, which made Master Ge faint. The old man had a stroke last time, and it would be fatal if it happened again.
After Qin Baotian left, Qin Xiang asked the bodyguard and got a positive answer.
It was said that Ge Lijuan knew from somewhere that Meng Huaiqing was going to send Jiang Licheng's family to Africa to farm, and she was anxious to go back to Gangcheng to find Meng Huaiqing to ask for clarification. Master Ge didn't like what Jiang Licheng's family did, and felt that they deserved it. As a result, Ge Lijuan felt sorry for her son and only said that her son knew he was wrong, saying that Meng Huaiqing was a son after all, why was he so cruel to his father.
Naturally, Master Ge would not agree with such remarks, and the brother and sister started to quarrel. Master Ge was not in good health to begin with, and he lost his breath in anger and then fainted.
Qin Xiang really lost the last bit of good feelings towards the old lady Ge Lijuan, so she might as well go with her son.
Just after hearing this, Ge Lijuan came over, wiping her tears, "Huaiqing, I know I shouldn't quarrel with your uncle because of this, but I can't help it. After all, those are your biological father and brothers and sisters. I understand that you don't like Mao Xinhui, but how can you let them go to Africa to farm?"
Meng Huaiqing was stunned when he said the complaining words. His grandmother was complaining about him.
Pain flashed in Meng Huaiqing's eyes, and he looked away, "Then the news you heard is out of date. I have arranged for them to go to America after the new year. Are you satisfied with this?"
This is his most respected grandmother. She once told him gently that he should not be afraid when encountering things, even if it is his own father. They don't care about you, but grandma cares about you.
But everything seems to be a lie. No matter how close a grandson is, he can't compare to his own son.
He didn't even figure out the matter, but he accused him of being cruel. After
Meng Huaiqing finished speaking, the operating room was opened, and Meng Huaiqing hurried over to inquire about the situation. Qin Xiang looked at the old lady sarcastically and said, "If you love your son so much, why don't you go to America with him instead of hurting Huai Qing's heart every day in the capital. He calls you grandma, but are you really worthy of this title? He treats you as his closest relative, but what have you given him in return?"
After saying that, Qin Xiang hurried over to see the old man's condition. Ge Lijuan stood there motionless.
This time, Master Ge fainted because of a cerebral infarction, but it was more severe. He didn't wake up after the operation, and he had to be hospitalized for observation for a while.
This year, he was destined to spend it in the hospital.
Not long after being wheeled to the ward, the old man woke up again. Looking at the two young people in front of him, the old man grinned, "I'm not dead yet, I'm already seeing Prince Yan. It's great, I can come back and eat the meals made by Xiao Qin again."
Qin Xiang's tears were about to fall when she heard this, "Uncle, don't say anything, today is New Year's Eve, I'll make you a delicious New Year's Eve dinner."
The old man couldn't help laughing, "Okay, I'll wait."
His eyes fell on Meng Huaiqing. Looking at the warm young man, Grandpa Ge's eyes were full of "Huaiqing, your grandma didn't mean it, she was just anxious, but she might not understand the situation, don't resent her."
Meng Huaiqing nodded, "Okay."
Grandpa Ge felt even worse, "Uncle also told you one thing today, no matter how close your parents, brothers, grandpa and grandma are, they will be two families when you get married. Only those who have been with you all the time are your family. I have watched you and Xiao Qin come all the way, you must be fine in the future, don't bully Xiao Qin, otherwise you will lose your last relatives."
The old man's words made Meng Huaiqing's eyes moist. He glanced at Qin Xiang and nodded, "Uncle, I understand."
The old man was tired after talking for a while, so he closed his eyes and said, "I'll take a nap."
Old Man Ge was too tired to sleep, and he had to continue to be observed in the hospital. It was not easy for him to say these words.
The doctor came over and said, "Just leave one person here to take care of the patient. Too many people will affect the patient's rest."
Qin Xiang and Meng Huaiqing looked at each other and said, "Then let's take turns to take care of the patient."
Meng Huaiqing shook his head, "You go back for the New Year, I'll stay here."
Qin Xiang glanced at the old lady who was a little bit at a loss and said, "You send her back first. I'll leave when you come back."
Meng Huaiqing nodded, then went to talk to Ge Lijuan and sent her back. After the two left, Qin Xiang stood in front of the window and looked outside. It was New Year's Eve outside and it was very lively. The hospital also hung big red lanterns on the trees outside, but because it was too quiet, there was a sense of discomfort.
Meng Huaiqing left and didn't come back until almost noon. His face was not very good. I guess he had talked to Ge Lijuan once.
Sure enough, when asked, Meng Huaiqing nodded, "She admitted that someone contacted her through a bodyguard and told her that I sent her family to Africa."
"So now that she knows you sent people to America, what does she say?"
Meng Huaiqing sighed, "She just said she didn't know. If she had known earlier, she wouldn't have quarreled."
Qin Xiang was furious when she heard this, "So she is blaming you for not arranging it earlier?"
Meng Huaiqing didn't say anything, but the result was obvious.
"Forget it, don't bother with her. When that family goes to America in the future, cut off her source of information and never let them contact you again."
The omission will definitely be plugged. There will never be a second time after the first time.
Not long after the two returned to the ward, Qin Juan and Qin Yang brought lunch over, "How is it?"
"He has been sleeping all the time. The doctor said that we have to continue to observe him."
Qin Juan sighed and worriedly said, "He is old, it is better to be less stimulated."
She understood the reason and had taken good precautions, but who knew that something went wrong with the bodyguard.
After the two had lunch, Meng Huaiqing urged Qin Xiang to leave. Qin Xiang said, "Wait until I come back after preparing the New Year's Eve dinner, and we will spend the New Year with uncle together."
Meng Huaiqing looked at her and said, "Okay."
The three siblings left the hospital, but snowflakes were falling outside.
Qin Juan glanced at Qin Xiang and said, "What about the old lady? Should we take her over to celebrate the New Year together?"
"Forget it." Qin Xiang shook her head, "Huaiqing has already asked, she doesn't want to celebrate the New Year, let her calm down."
Qin Juan hesitated, "She is pitiful, she supports the family alone, her son is her life..."
Qin Xiang suddenly looked at Qin Juan, "She is pitiful, does Meng Huaiqing deserve to suffer? He was treated like that by his biological father and stepmother when he was young, and now his stomach is not good. It's hard for him to have a grandmother who cares about him, but now his dearest grandmother is sticking a needle in his heart. Who is more pitiful?"
Seeing that she was angry, Qin Juan explained, "That's not what I meant, I just..." She looked sad, "I just empathize with you."
"Can you relate?" Qin Xiang was amused. "When Huaiqing's grandfather died, Jiang Licheng was already an adult, not an orphan or a widow."
She opened the car door and got in without saying anything. Qin Juan and Qin Yang followed. Seeing that Qin Juan wanted to say more, Qin Yang said, "If you don't want to say it , don't say it."
Qin Juan shut up, but she felt a little uneasy. She fiddled with her fingers for a while and explained, "I didn't mean to say this, don't mind it."
Qin Xiang looked at her sarcastically, "If I minded, I would have been mad to death. I thought you had matured and made up your mind after so many things, but I didn't expect you to say such things. If one day you use the pain and hardship of the past to ask Nian Nian to do this or that, I advise you to think it over. What's the difference between you and the Zhao family?"
Hearing this, Qin Juan widened her eyes in surprise, "I don't."
"It's better not to." Qin Xiang was too lazy to continue talking to Qin Juan.
She hoped that her brothers and sisters could live well, and she did try hard to do so, but everyone chooses their own path, and how Qin Juan lives in the future is Qin Juan's business.
She didn't want to be told that I am different from you because of a sentence...
This is hurtful.
Before getting off the car, Qin Juan mustered up the courage to say, "I'm sorry." Qin Xiang
wanted to say it was okay, but she felt it was unnecessary.
She got off the car and walked in. Qin Yang looked at Qin Juan and said disapprovingly, "It's better if you are confused yourself and don't teach Nian Nian to be confused. In addition, you should tell Nian Nian less that you do everything for her. Let a child carry this burden every day, won't it crush her?"
Hearing this, Qin Juan wanted to say no, but after thinking about it carefully, she seemed to really say it often.
Qin Juan said in a panic, "Will it really bring her a lot of pressure?"
She thought she had withstood all the pressure and didn't get married, and she could make money and give Qin Nian a happy family, but did what she said really hurt the child without realizing it?
Pushing the door and entering the house, it was bustling.
Qin Baotian rarely went to the kitchen, and sat on the sofa to watch TV with Nian Nian.
Qin Xiang came over, "Dad, Happy New Year."
It was already afternoon, and the Spring Festival couplets on the door had been posted. Qin Baotian smiled and said, "I've also posted the couplets on your villa. Do you want to go over and take a look?"
Qin Xiang shook her head, "No, I'm going to cook some food. I have to go to the hospital later."
She went to the kitchen to cook a few New Year's Eve dishes, put them in lunch boxes one by one, and covered a box with a torn cotton blanket for insulation before carrying them to the hospital.
When they arrived at the hospital, Qin Xiang said to Miao Sheng and the others, "You guys go back to celebrate the New Year. It's okay to be in the hospital here."
After sending everyone away, Qin Xiang pushed the door open and went in. The old man had already woken up and was talking to Meng Huaiqing.
Qin Xiang went in, looked at them and said, "Happy New Year."
"Happy New Year."
