Xiao Bao seemed to be trying very hard, squeezing out a single word from his throat: "Uncle..."
Because he hadn't spoken for a long time, Xiao Bao's voice sounded like that of a toddler just learning to talk; his pronunciation wasn't very clear, but you could still understand what he was saying.
“Miss Su, Yi’er can talk now, cough cough, Yi’er can talk now, cough cough.” Jiang Qi’an looked at Su Ruojin.
Su Ruojin also looked relieved; Xiao Bao was finally willing to speak.
Once he takes this step, it's only a matter of time before he recovers from his dementia.
Xiao Bao will be a healthy child from now on.
At this moment, Feng Ying came in carrying a wooden tray with a small medicine bottle on it: "Miss, I've come to change Young Master Jiang's dressing."
"Alright, thank you for your trouble. Young Master Jiang, please change your dressing first. I'll come back to see you later." Su Ruojin left with Xiaobao.
After closing the door, Feng Ying unwrapped the gauze from Jiang Qi'an's body and reapplied the medicine to him.
"Young Master Jiang, do you know who could have treated you so cruelly? If it weren't for Miss, you probably wouldn't even be alive today," Feng Ying said as she applied the medicine.
"I don't know who the other party is yet, but it was indeed Miss Su who saved my life," Jiang Qi'an readily admitted.
“Young Master Jiang, I don’t know your background, nor do I want to know. However, our young lady has always only wanted to live a peaceful life. Judging from your injuries, your enemies are not simple. I hope you will leave the clinic as soon as you recover and not cause any unnecessary trouble for the clinic.”
Jiang Qi'an could easily hear the rejection and indifference in Feng Ying's words.
"Is this your idea, or your young lady's idea?"
"Whose opinion is not important. I don't want to cause trouble for Miss because of irrelevant people. I'm sure Young Master Jiang isn't the kind of person who repays kindness with enmity," Feng Ying said calmly.
Fengying is very hostile towards me.
Jiang Qi'an, being a man himself, understood perfectly well the way Feng Ying looked at Su Ruojin.
However, Feng Ying was right about one thing: his enemy this time was not simple. If he stayed at the clinic, and the other party found out he was there, they might really come looking for him.
“Young Master Feng, I will leave once I am able to get out of bed and walk.”
"Very well, Fengying will take good care of Young Master Jiang so that you can get up as soon as possible." Fengying finished bandaging Jiang Qi'an and left.
When Madam Lin learned that Xiao Bao could talk, she was very happy and wanted Xiao Bao to call her Grandma.
But this time, Xiao Bao kept his mouth shut and didn't say anything more.
Madam Lin was somewhat disappointed.
Su Ruojin smiled and said, "Grandmother, it's already a great achievement that Xiaobao can speak. He can't say much yet, so let's give him some more time. He hasn't called me 'sister' yet either."
Hearing this, Madam Lin calmed down: "That's right, Xiao Bao, don't rush, take your time. Grandma will cook you some white fungus soup later."
"Thank you... Grandma..." Xiao Bao suddenly blurted out two words.
Madam Lin was stunned: "Xiao Bao, say it again?"
Xiao Bao's face turned red, and he finally managed to squeeze out another word: "...milk".
"Oh, my dear little one, he can finally call me Grandma." Madam Lin felt her eyes welling up with tears.
Although she and Xiaobao had only spent a little over two months together, she had long regarded him as her own child. Now that the child could finally speak, how could Old Madam Lin not be overjoyed?
Now it was Su Ruojin's turn to be frustrated. When would this little treasure be able to call her name?
Xiao Bao turned to look at her and said, "Sister..."
Su Ruojin suddenly felt a sense of pride as a mother, because her little one could speak.
