I thought Aunt Chi would hesitate for a while, but to my surprise, she calmly said, "Okay."
Startled, Old Man Chi grabbed his wife and whispered, "Don't be angry, it's not worth it! Think of the children! Especially Tangtang, she's so young, can you bear to see her without a mother?"
Chi Tang: ...
Dad, are you trying to comfort me?
Aren't you afraid of getting beaten up?
To everyone's surprise, Aunt Chi, who was usually short-tempered, was incredibly gentle. She patted the man's arm that was holding her, her expression calm and serene.
"I know, don't worry."
She knows her own body perfectly well.
Although Dr. Li and Tangtang were taking care of her, she was still not as well as before.
She has a bunch of kids now, so she won't neglect her own health.
What's more, it's for someone who has never considered me family.
"Then I'll go with you. I'll stay outside. If anyone bullies you, just shout and I'll rush in immediately."
Old Man Chi was still worried.
Lin Huainan frowned as he listened.
Is this something you're saying to him?
Don't worry.
Aunt Chi already understood what was going on, so naturally she wouldn't make a mistake.
The reason I'm still willing to go now is mainly because I want to ask Lin Jianglai in person.
There are some things that you'll always regret if you can't hear the answer to yourself.
"Um."
"Mother, I'll stay with you."
Chi Tang hugged her mother tightly.
At times like these, she needs to stay with her mother to avoid anyone bullying her.
Seeing her daughter's sweet little face, Aunt Chi didn't refuse and carried Chi Tang downstairs.
When they arrived at the entrance of the Lin Family Escort Agency, Old Man Chi was already waiting outside while the others went inside.
As soon as she entered, Chi Tang could clearly feel that her mother's breathing was different; she was obviously quite nervous.
She knew.
In her mother's heart, the Lin family was ultimately different.
"Lan Niang, come quickly, come see your father." The old lady was waiting in the courtyard, tears still dripping from the corners of her eyes.
It seems the old man's condition is not good.
Aunt Chi nodded and picked up Chi Tang to walk inside.
The old lady stopped her, saying, "The child is still young, so please don't bring him inside."
The old lady meant well.
The room was already somewhat oppressive, but now that the person was about to die, the room felt even more oppressive and uncomfortable.
Bringing children in at this time might not be a good idea.
Aunt Chi understood what she meant, so she hesitated a bit when she held Chi Tang.
Chi Tang immediately hugged her mother's neck and said firmly, "I don't want to, I want to stay with you, Mom." Then, her eyes darted around and she said cleverly, "I also want to see Grandpa and Grandma, okay?"
Ouch~
How could the old lady bear this?
I softened immediately.
This is a filial and good girl. Although she is young, she knows to visit her grandfather.
"Okay, okay, okay. But if you feel uncomfortable, come find Grandma, and Grandma will carry you out, okay?"
The old lady had a kind face and clear eyes.
Despite her advanced age, she has never experienced anything truly devastating, which is why she remains so naive at this age.
This is also thanks to the old man's good protection.
Chi Tang had a very good impression of the old lady and immediately nodded in agreement: "Okay, okay, thank you, Grandma. I like Grandma very much."
"Oh my, Lan Niang, you're such a good talker, your words are so sweet. You're much better than you were when you were little!"
The old lady's eyes crinkled with laughter.
When her daughter was little, she would rather be beaten to death than admit her mistakes or say anything nice!
She was very worried at that time.
This child is so stubborn and argumentative, what will become of him?
Who would like a girl with that kind of personality?
It's fine at her parents' home, but what if she goes to her husband's home? That would be terrible!
"That's right, my daughter is a gift from God."
Whenever Chi Tang is mentioned, Aunt Chi's face is always filled with pride.
Her daughter deserves all the pride she has!
"Alright, go in."
The old lady and Aunt Chi exchanged a few words.
It turns out that the other two children haven't arrived yet, and even Lin Huainan's child isn't in town; he's staying at his maternal grandmother's house and won't be back until tomorrow.
So the old lady was very worried. What if the old man couldn't hold on? Wouldn't only her youngest son be by her side? And she wouldn't be able to see any of her grandsons?
Just thinking about it makes me feel heartbroken and sad.
"Everything is predestined..."
Aunt Chi said this out of the blue.
Just as the old lady was about to ask what it meant, she pushed open the door and went inside, and then she shut her mouth.
The room was indeed cramped and uncomfortable, with waves of heat mixed with an indescribable smell, making one feel extremely oppressed.
Lin Jianglai lay on the bed, motionless and silent, as if he were dead.
After Aunt Chi came in, she found a stool and sat down.
She was too tired.
So I'm too lazy to stand here and wait like I'm being punished.
"No manners at all! Did I tell you to sit down?" The old man suddenly opened his eyes, stared coldly at Aunt Chi, and cursed her out.
Chi Tang was about to speak angrily when her mother slapped her.
Chi Tang looked up at Aunt Chi, somewhat puzzled.
mother?
What does this mean?
Aunt Chi shook her head at her, then retorted, "There's nothing we can do; that's how my parents taught me."
