"Sister Zhuang?"
Lord Yang was taken aback and rushed forward to hug his thin, small granddaughter.
That tiny little bundle, nestled in your arms, staring at you with pleading eyes, looking as pitiful as a kitten about to die.
"grandfather."
"Sister Zhuang, don't be afraid, it's alright, it's alright. Someone come here, someone come here!"
Although he was trying to reassure his granddaughter that everything was alright, the way Lord Yang called out was distorted.
Nothing is as shocking as seeing it with your own eyes.
All of this information came from other people.
Now I see my granddaughter so thin and small, with so much blood flowing from her nose, her skin almost transparent...
Lord Yang felt a sudden, inexplicable panic, and he began to resent and even hate his stepmother.
How could anyone harm such a young child?
Isn't that a bit too reckless?
"Grandfather, don't cry. Sister Zhuang is not scared anymore. Grandfather, please don't cry."
Sister Zhuang stretched out her soft fingers, wanting to wipe away the tears on her grandfather's cheeks.
"Sister Zhuang!"
Lord Yang was heartbroken.
Why should such a lovely and sensible granddaughter suffer like this?
The doctor arrived quickly.
However, the doctor didn't have any good solutions and could only try to gradually improve his condition.
You'll definitely get nosebleeds or something in the first few days.
It's inevitable that such a young child's body can't handle such highly nutritious food.
Since Lord Yang hadn't seen it with his own eyes before, and only heard that it would take three to six months to recover and that there wouldn't be any major problems on a daily basis, he didn't pay much attention to it.
But after seeing it with my own eyes, I no longer felt that way.
"Grandfather, you go ahead and do your work. I'm fine. I just get nosebleeds occasionally, it's really nothing."
Little Sister Zhuang was initially very scared, but after seeing her grandfather shed tears, she pretended not to be scared at all and even comforted him instead.
How can one not feel sorry for Sister Zhuang?
Lord Yang patted his granddaughter's head, fighting back tears: "Sister Zhuang is so naughty. How about Grandpa takes Sister Zhuang out to play in a few days?"
"Really? Does Grandfather have time? Will this take up too much of his time?"
"No, how could Grandfather not even have time to spend with Sister Zhuang?"
"Thank you, Grandfather."
The little guy immediately perked up when he heard he could go out and play.
Seeing his granddaughter's happy expression, Lord Yang felt somewhat relieved.
After dinner, Lord Yang tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
He then asked, "Madam, are you asleep?"
"Say what you want to say."
In the darkness, Madam Yang rolled her eyes.
She knew this guy would do it.
After being married for so many years, they already knew perfectly well what was going on.
"How could your stepmother have become like this? She watched Zhuang Jie grow up. Even though they're not related by blood, she still respectfully calls her Great-Grandmother. How could she be so heartless?"
Madam Yang sneered: "What? Didn't you say that the stepmother might have acted unintentionally?"
Lord Yang was speechless, so he turned around with the quilt in his arms, his back to his wife.
But after turning his back to her for a while, he still didn't get his wife to come and coax him, so he had to start talking to himself again.
"That wasn't...sigh, I just didn't expect it. Seeing Sister Zhuang like that made me feel really uncomfortable, I wanted nothing more than to kill my stepmother..."
"Why say such useless things? She's the legal mother; for the sake of our reputation and the children, we can't really do anything to her."
"So it is indeed the lady's plan that is superior and well thought out."
Lord Yang turned around, embraced his wife, and softly admitted his mistake: "I was too impulsive during the day. I apologize to my wife here."
"Hmph, I know you too well. Alright, from now on you don't need to worry about anything in the old lady's courtyard."
"Then... how do we explain this to my eldest sister? And what about the birthday banquet?"
Madam Yang said calmly, "Originally, I only guessed that Tangtang knew about this and deliberately told me. Now that my eldest sister hasn't asked about it, I can be sure."
"Tangtang? What does Tangtang have to do with this?"
Lord Yang quite liked that little girl.
Mrs. Yang said, "Tangtang is a good child..."
After listening to the lady's words, Lord Yang nodded: "It seems that Tangtang has noticed something. This child is really smart."
"Who can argue with that? As for the birthday banquet, we'll just find some excuse, saying that our stepmother is seriously ill, and the banquet will only be a meal for our own family. As long as our eldest sister and the others wait until after the birthday banquet before leaving, outsiders won't suspect anything."
"Well then, let's arrange it that way. Thank you for your hard work, Madam."
"As long as you can understand what I'm doing, I won't feel bad."
The couple talked for a long time, and became more open with each other.
Even the closest of spouses need to have in-depth conversations from time to time.
Because people change.
-
Before we knew it, it was time for the old lady's birthday banquet.
But Madam Yang still did not release the old lady.
She had said that from now on, she would not let the old lady see anyone again.
Let her die alone!
The Chi family was fully aware of this.
Even if they didn't know exactly what Madam Yang wanted to do, they knew that Madam Yang wouldn't let the matter rest.
Aunt Chi was a little embarrassed.
She did consider pleading for mercy, but thinking of poor Sister Zhuang and with Chi Tang's persuasion, she decided to say nothing more.
