Chapter 140
Today is the day Jiang Ling’s mother has surgery.
Qiu Zijie made an appointment with Song Xingqi and Sheng Xiaoxing to go to the hospital together to accompany Jiang Ling.
Sheng Xiaoxing arrived at the club early, finished his usual work in advance, and then rushed to the hospital. Song Xingqi was driven to the hospital by Fu Chen himself. He got out of the car reluctantly. Fu Chen didn't want to part with Xingqi so soon, but it would be more appropriate for his younger brother Xiaosi to visit Jiang Ling's mother, so as not to steal his younger brother's limelight.
Everyone watched Liang Qian enter the operating room. As soon as the door closed, Jiang Ling's heart was in his throat.
Four of us sat in a row, five in total including my younger brother.
Song Xingqi comforted her: "Auntie's surgery will definitely be very successful, Jiang Ling, don't worry!"
Qiu Zijie: "I have checked the success rate of this type of surgery. In China, it is over 90%. According to the data from the People's Hospital in the past, the success rate can reach 98%-99%."
Sheng Xiaoxing: "I saw a magpie on the way here. It's a good sign."
Jiang Ling smiled and said, "Don't worry, I am a little worried, but not as nervous as you think."
But it’s great to have friends’ care.
"Yes, my mother is a lucky person," Jiang Yi laughed.
A few people squeezed Jiang Ling in the middle and chatted for a while, and the atmosphere became more relaxed.
"Who of you can make room for me?"
Fu Zhan came. He just went to buy water for a few people.
Sheng Xiaoxing was sitting next to Jiang Ling on his right. Upon hearing this, he looked at the empty seats in the next row and said, "Fourth brother, there's a seat next to us."
This is a real straight man.
Fu Zhan laughed: "Duoduo, this little fur ball needs me right now, I have to stay close to him to give him a sense of security."
Jiang Ling's eyes curved: "Is it possible that my friends can also give me a great sense of security?"
Fu Zhan: "Just keep talking tough."
"Speaking of hardness," Qiu Zijie said, "Fourth brother, how is your illness? Second brother said that psychological treatment is not very effective. Should we consider physical stimulation next?"
"What physiological stimulation?" Song Zhouxing was curious.
Sheng Xiaoxing speculated: "Electric shock? Is it similar to opening up the Ren and Du meridians?"
Qiu Zijie: "Almost. My second brother and I have discussed this. There is low-intensity shock wave therapy, which uses sound waves to promote blood vessel regeneration and repair. You can also do hot compresses, massage, and acupuncture to improve blood circulation and achieve therapeutic effects."
The four kids discussed in low voices.
Fu Zhan showed a dangerous smile, but none of the boys in front of him could move.
I waited outside the operating room for two hours and the operation was completed smoothly and was very successful.
Because of the minimally invasive treatment method used, the healing was fast, and the doctor informed them that they could be discharged from the hospital a week later. After Jiang Ling settled the bill and returned to the ward, there was an extra person in the room. Who else could it be but Fu Zhan? He was helping Liang Qian pack her things by the cabinet, and Liang Qian felt embarrassed.
"Lingling, come on, call your friends, chat or go for a walk outside," Liang Qian pulled her son over, "Xiaoyi and I will clean up here."
"Auntie, you're welcome. These are just the easy things to do."
In order to perform well in front of little Maotuan and to leave a good impression on Maotuan's mother, Fu Zhan took special care of himself, looking like a peacock with its tail spread out.
Jiang Yi lowered his head and held back his laughter.
Jiang Ling glanced at his brother, then at his mother. He hadn't mentioned the matter between him and Fu Zhan to his mother, and he didn't know how far his relationship with Fu Zhan would go. But at the moment, he was truly with Fu Zhan, so there was no need to be polite. He took his mother's arm and said, "Mom, just let him help. We have a very good relationship. He would feel bad if you don't let him help."
"Well... okay," Liang Qian smiled at Fu Zhan, "Thank you then."
Fu Zhan: "It should be."
Fu Zhan safely escorted Jiang Ling and his family home.
Liang Qian wanted to go to the store after sitting at home for a few minutes, but Jiang Ling persuaded her not to do so. However, Liang Qian couldn't sit still, so Jiang Ling brought all the material incoming and outgoing lists from the store to his mother for checking, which was also a way to find something to do.
"Mom, I bought the vegetables!"
The town’s vegetable market is very close to home, and Jiang Yi only needs seven or eight minutes to go back and forth by bike.
He was carrying two large plastic bags.
"Give it to me, I'll cook," Liang Qian reached out to take it.
"No," Jiang Ling pressed his mother's shoulders and asked her to sit down, "I'll make lunch."
It was the first day his mother was discharged from the hospital. He couldn't let her get tired, so he took the ingredients from his brother and went into the kitchen.
Jiang Yi wanted to help, but someone got there first, so he immediately tactfully withdrew and went back to the living room to chat with his mother.
"Little fur ball, what dish are you going to cook?" Fu Zhan opened the plastic bag, which contained pork, panting fish, and lively shrimps. The other bag contained vegetables, such as carrots.
"Of course, I do whatever I can," Jiang Ling poured the vegetables into the sink, turned on the faucet, and broke open the leaves in a professional manner.
"The crucian carp will be used to make soup," Fu Zhan helped the little fur ball think of dishes, "and the pork will be boiled in water, which is a lighter dish. As for the shrimp...how about braised prawns?"
Feeling a pair of eyes staring at him intensely, he glanced sideways.
The little fur ball was staring at him sideways.
Fu Zhan: “?”
Jiang Ling: "Do you think I have what it takes to be a chef?"
Fu Zhan took a sip, walked behind Jiang Ling, surrounded him with his arms, held Jiang Ling's hands with both hands and helped him wash the leaves: "It seems that you are only good at talking, but you don't have any hands-on ability?"
"You make it sound like you have the ability to do it, do you?"
He didn't believe it. Could it be that Fu Zhan, a born young master, could cook?
"Of course I don't, don't underestimate me, as long as you can say it, I can do it."
“Is this true or false?”
"Of course it's true."
Baji, Fu Zhan lowered his head and kissed Jiang Ling on the face: "Wife, believe me."
A minute later, Fu Zhan downloaded the "Cooking" APP.
Jiang Ling: “…”
It turns out that I planned to learn and apply it at the same time.
Jiang Yi was in the living room, helping his mother sort out the store's inventory and turned on the TV, but the volume of the TV program was not as loud as the loud shouting coming from the kitchen.
"Oil, oil! Can't you see it's frying? Be careful!"
"Didn't you say you wanted to fry the shrimp in oil? Can we fry it without oil?"
"I'm talking about greasy stuff!"
"That's called oil stew. Didn't you see on the app that it says you have to put the shrimp in and stir-fry it?"
"Yeah??"
Liang Qian in the outer room was very worried and asked her youngest son to go over and take a look: "Xiao Yi, no, tell them to stop cooking. Let's go out to eat. Mom will treat us."
"Oh, okay!" Jiang Yi came to the kitchen door and peeked in.
Fu Sishao held his brother in his arms with one hand to protect him, and checked the app with the other hand: "It really needs to be stir-fried. It's a pure name scam. I thought it was just to smear some oil and sauce and simmer it. Tsk, it's so complicated."
"Don't worry about how complicated it is. Let me stir-fry it for a few times first, or it will get burnt!" Jiang Ling waved the spatula in the air.
However, he was held down by Fu Zhan and could not rush to the pot.
"It's a mess if it's a mess, just be careful with the oil!"
"Get out of the way!"
"No, give me the shovel and I'll do it."
Fu Zhan tried to grab the shovel, but Jiang Ling held it tightly and refused to let go: "You are definitely not as good as me, get out of the way."
"I can't bear to hear the word 'no' right now," Fu Zhan lowered his head, cupped Jiang Ling's face and kissed him, "Take back what you just said, you hear me, little fur ball."
"I don't?"
"Kiss you until you give in."
The private words were spoken very quietly, so Liang Qian outside could not hear them, but Jiang Yi, who was lying at the door, heard them all. The fierce old man surrendered to Fu Zhan's light pecks and gave up the shovel in his hand.
Jiang Yi turned and left.
It's too shameful to watch.
After more than an hour of preparation, lunch was finally ready, but it must be said that this was the most unpalatable meal Liang Qian had ever eaten in all these years.
In the evening, Liang Qian had to go to bed early. In order not to be a third wheel, Jiang Yi tactfully went back to his room with his phone, leaving Fu Zhan alone in the living room.
Jiang Ling came out of the kitchen after cutting some fruit and asked, "Why haven't you left yet?"
"What do you mean I haven't left yet, is there anyone who is in love like you?"
"Yes, haven't you seen it?"
Fu Zhan sighed deeply, saying in a resentful tone, "Why do you think I like you? Others flatter me, but when it comes to you, I am the one trying to please you."
Men also need to be coaxed. Jiang Ling sat down next to Fu Zhan and took the initiative to kiss him on the face: "So you regret it so soon?"
"How could that be possible!" Fu Zhan took Jiang Ling's shoulder, lowered his head and took a piece of fruit from the little fur ball's hand, then raised his head and let it go into his throat, saying contentedly, "I will never regret it in my life."
Jiang Ling lay down, resting his head on Fu Zhan's legs, and yawned slightly.
"Tired?" Fu Zhan felt sorry for him.
“A little bit.”
"Take a moment."
Fu Zhan turned down the volume of the TV.
Although he felt a little sleepy, Jiang Ling didn't particularly want to sleep. He quite enjoyed staying with Fu Zhan like this.
The TV commercial just ended and the TV series continued. The hero and heroine expressed their feelings to each other and then started to kiss, inseparable.
"Well," Fu Zhan started to find a topic, "I asked you to find two more employees to look after the store, but you didn't want to. I asked you to let the chef come to your house to cook, but you didn't want to. I asked you to hire a few nannies for our mom, but you didn't want to. Little fur ball, do you still treat me as an outsider?"
For Zhan, these were things that could be done with a simple wave of the hand, so why did the little fur ball refuse to do so?
"You are so natural and familiar, calling me mom all the time."
"Sooner or later."
"I told you, the more you help my mom, the more likely she'll get suspicious. Wait until she fully recovers, and then let nature take its course. Mom will know when she needs to. Besides, I haven't even started college yet, so there's no need to tell my family about my relationship."
"I'm afraid you want to be the King of the Sea again."
Fu Zhan was very worried. Whenever he thought of Mao Tuan’s ex-boyfriends, he would become jealous.
Jiang Lingle.
"Still smiling, looking very proud, huh?" Fu Zhan pinched his wife's face.
"Of course not," Jiang Ling sat up and sat directly on Fu Zhan's legs. He boldly kissed the man's sensitive Adam's apple, and his lips slowly rubbed his earlobe. Anyway, Fu Zhan was not good enough, so he was not afraid of teasing him. "I feel happy that you are jealous, which means you care about me."
"That's more like it," Fu Zhan tightened his arms around his wife and said, "There's something else I want to tell you."
"What's up?"
"There's a banquet hosted by the group in two days. It happens to be my birthday, so we'll hold it together."
"You mean, you want me to participate?"
"Well," Fu Zhan kissed his wife, "I ordered a little skirt for you."
Jiang Ling: Hehe (￢_￢)
At the same time, Song Xingqi, Qiu Zijie and Sheng Xiaoxing also received invitations from the men of the Fu family.
