Chapter 331: Heartbroken



The other two male doctors smiled and said to them, "We have to go too. Our homes are not in the same direction as yours. See you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow."

Ji Liangcai and Liang Mingke waved goodbye, and as the crowd dispersed, Ji Liangcai and Liang Mingke looked at each other, and neither of them spoke tacitly; it was not until they walked out of the hospital that Liang Mingke spoke.

"Did you see the two people next to Dr. Zhong?"

"I'm not blind." After rolling his eyes at the other person, Ji Liangcai asked doubtfully, "Are those two bodyguards? Their figures resemble those of Dr. Zhong's husband."

This image does not refer to height or body shape, but to the temperament and upright posture.

Liang Mingke nodded, "It should be."

"A doctor doesn't need bodyguards? What does she need to be protected by?" Her medical skills?

"Dean Zhang said that Dr. Zhong not only has professional titles at the Medical University, but also at Huazhong University of Science and Technology. Although he didn't say what major his professional title was at Huazhong University of Science and Technology...but, he can be protected..." This made them think more.

Ji Liangcai nodded, "Is she a researcher?"

"See through it but don't say it out loud." Liang Mingke frowned slightly, turned around and left; we are all smart people, and we have to know when to say what and when not to say it.

In this case, neither of them is suitable to have a close relationship with Dr. Zhong; and Dr. Zhong has no intention of having a close relationship with them. Perhaps they did not leave a good impression on each other when they first met.

......

Zhong Yuxiu didn't know that Ji Liangcai and Liang Mingke were planning to stay away from her, and she wouldn't care even if she knew; she didn't want anyone approaching her with ill intentions.

The car entered the compound and stopped at Yan's house. Then the group parked the car and walked home.

As soon as she stepped into the house, the aroma of food hit her face. Zhong Yuxiu rubbed her stomach. She had just eaten and was hungry.

"What delicious food are Aunt Wang and Aunt Gong cooking? It smells like braised meat."

"It should be." Yan Rushan took her to the hall, while Gu Lingguo and Fang Guozhong carried the thermos bucket and took the plates to the kitchen to wash them.

Old Master Yan was playing with the children in the hall. He heard their voices, followed by footsteps, and looked up and smiled at them.

"You're back! The nanny has made some delicious food. We'll be eating soon. Go wash your hands first."

"Okay, Grandpa."

Yan Rushan agreed, took his wife to the bathroom to wash their hands and came out; Zhong Yuxiu went straight to the crib. The three little kids were awake at this moment. The three little guys were very similar, all with tense faces and big round eyes. The third one, Li Ming, let out a "whoosh" and grinned.

The second and eldest sons were not willing to be left behind, so they started laughing as well. Because they were so happy, their laughter looked a bit like ducks. They laughed briefly for a few seconds and then stopped, pursing their lips as they looked at Zhong Yuxiu beside the bed.

Old Master Yan narrowed his eyes in a smile. "Look how happy they are! They know Mom is back. I've been teasing them here for quite some time, but at most they just said hello to me, not even smiled. They still love Mom."

"Really?" Yuxiu's eyebrows danced with joy for a moment.

"If you don't believe me, you can ask the nanny. They are witnesses."

Zhong Yuxiu shook her head and chuckled. "Don't ask. How could I possibly do what you say? The children are still young. When they grow up and can control their facial muscles, they will smile more often. Right now, their muscles are just not flexible enough."

"Yes, Dashan was like this when he was a child." Grandpa Yan knew in his heart that the three children liked their mother more and could not control their facial muscles; but when they laughed, they looked at their mother. It would be fine if only one of them was like this, but if all three were like this, then there would be no suspense.

"Li Ji, Li Zhen, Li Ming, mommy is back. Have you been well behaved today? Did you drink enough milk?" Facing the children, Yuxiu's face was warm and her gentle voice was full of love.

Old Master Yan chuckled. "They don't understand a word you say. Our children, Liji, Lizhen, and Liming, are so well behaved. They don't cry or make a fuss. After you left, they drank two bottles of milk, one every two hours. These three little ones have big appetites and eat like crazy. As soon as the bottle comes in, they won't let go until they finish the milk. If you take it away, they start crying."

"Isn't that a bit much?"

"It's not much. We can afford to feed more than that." The old man was very happy. "The baby is willing to eat and loves to eat. A good appetite will help him grow fast."

Seeing this, Zhong Yuxiu fell silent, hoping the three little ones hadn't inherited her good appetite. "You're right, the more a child eats, the healthier they are. Do we have enough milk powder at home? The milk powder we're swallowing will only last for two months at most, right?"

"It's not enough, but it's okay. My comrades and I exchanged a lot of milk powder coupons for Dashan to buy. I can't let my darling grandson starve."

Okay, as long as you are happy.

When facing the children, the old man really couldn't put on any expression.

Yan Rushan looked helpless. "Then give me the milk powder tickets. I have more than a dozen of them here."

"That's enough for two months of feeding the dog." Old Master Yan hurried back to his room, fetched a stack of bills, and stuffed them into his pocket. "I haven't counted the exact number of milk powder coupons, but it looks like a lot. It should be enough for the children to eat for a month."

Yan Rushan counted them and found that there were eight milk powder tickets, totaling more than 300 yuan.

"Grandpa, you don't have to give us money, we have money." The money was returned and he would not take it back no matter what; he had previously accepted three courtyard houses for the children, so how could he continue to ask grandpa for subsidies?

Old Master Yan glanced at him and said nothing. He quietly put the money away and said, "Don't count it. When my great-grandchildren grow up, I will buy them some candy."

"You're thinking too far ahead. It'll take another four or five years before we can eat candy." Yan Rushan couldn't help but poke the old man in the heart again.

"What four or five years? When my great-grandchildren are one year old and can eat solid food, I will give them candy."

"Please, please don't eat sweets until your child has all his teeth."

Mr. Yan obviously didn't believe it. "You're just kidding. Let me see if I believe you or not."

Zhong Yuxiu held her forehead and chuckled.

"Yuxiu, you are a doctor and you know better than him. Is it true that children can't eat candy because they don't have all their teeth? This kid is trying to fool me." Old Master Yan rolled his eyes at his eldest grandson and felt displeased with him no matter how he looked at him.

The fire burned her body, and Yuxiu coughed lightly, "Eat less sweets, not that you can't eat them; I'm just afraid it will damage their newly grown teeth."

Small baby teeth are tender and easily infested with cavities.

Old Master Yan rolled his eyes at his eldest grandson again and said, "Did you hear that? My granddaughter-in-law said that the children can eat some sweets in moderation."

"Wife, you don't help me." Yan Rushan looked at her pitifully.

Zhong Yuxiu spread her hands and said, "There's nothing we can do. This is our grandfather after all."

Yan Rushan's eyes were filled with resentment, but Old Man Yan smiled widely and felt comforted in his heart; so, what was the point of having an eldest grandson, a thing that only pricked his heart.

As the sky gradually darkened, Gu Lingguo and Fang Guozhong brought the dishes to the table one after another. As soon as the cut braised meat came out, Yuxiu's mouth started to water and she wanted to eat more.

"Grandpa, let's go, it's time to eat."

"You go first, I'll wash my hands." The old man looked at his great-grandson again, then got up and went to the bathroom.
