Hou Guifang followed her gaze and saw the girl standing there quietly, her eyes clear and bright. Her features were not the kind that were stunning, but the more you looked at her, the more attractive she became. The charm between her brows and eyes seemed to have been sculpted by a divine hand, and she was inexplicably captivating!
Perhaps due to farm work, the girl's skin was a healthy wheat color, and her hands, which were not hidden, bore the heavy marks left by farm work.
He had a simple and honest demeanor, and although his clothes were badly patched, they were very clean.
Overall, it's quite satisfactory.
Hou Guifang had only seen her briefly before and hadn't paid much attention, but it wasn't hard to notice that Sheng Qian had changed somewhat today.
There was no longer any timidity in his eyes, and even his posture was upright.
It's refreshing!
"Today is our first official meeting. Originally, we planned to meet in the village, but our family situation is a bit special. Xiaoqian, please bear with us." Because of taking care of her son, she hasn't had a proper rest for several days.
Sheng Ping chuckled and said, "It's alright, it's the same if we come," and then gently nudged Sheng Qian, "Quickly call for help."
"Auntie," Sheng Qian greeted Hou Guifang, seeing that she was in a good mood.
"Why call her 'auntie'? You should call her 'grandmother'!" Sheng Ping glared at Sheng Qian, afraid that she would anger Hou Guifang.
Hou Guifang smiled and gestured with her hand, "It's alright, let's go inside first. Not all of our family members could come, only a few are here, so we feel bad that this meeting has been inconvenient for you. We'll make it up to you later, and you can make any requests you have."
“Madam Long, we want to transfer Guanhua to the county hospital for treatment as soon as possible. Oh, Guanhua is my son,” Sheng Li hurriedly mentioned.
Sheng Ping glanced at Sheng Li.
They have no sense of propriety at all.
Is it appropriate to bring this up now?
The other party asked Sheng Qian to come over to meet her family, just as a formality, because they wanted to pay money to save her son.
Hou Guifang frowned slightly, feeling a little uncomfortable, but she didn't show it on her face.
"We can arrange the transfer today; someone at the hospital will handle everything. Once Xiaoqian enters the Long family, she'll be a member of the Long family."
"Thank you, thank you so much!" Sheng Li wanted to see his son right now, but he still had to go through the formalities here; as Sheng Qian's father, he couldn't leave.
Sheng Qian then learned that the original owner of the body had married into a family surnamed Long.
The Long family got a private room at the town clinic. There were many staff members from the clinic coming and going, and Sheng Ping recognized them and greeted them as he entered.
"That's the one, the one surnamed Long, I don't know where he came from. I heard that he was seriously injured and unconscious during a mission, so he asked a famous Taoist priest in the mountains to check his birth chart and find a girl whose birth chart matches his to bring him good luck. And look, the girl he found is the one who just passed by."
The people in the health center saw the group of people walking by and began to talk in hushed tones.
"What a tragedy! We don't know if what this Taoist priest said is true or false. If the girl gets married and can't be cured, won't she become a widow?"
"Sigh, the Sheng family is in a hurry to save the child who was brought in a couple of days ago. Getting him to the county hospital for treatment will cost a lot of money. They had no other choice but to have their daughter's birth chart calculated. And it was accurate every time! The girl's birth chart is the best match for the young man lying in the hospital bed!"
"How did you find out so much about this?" someone asked curiously.
“This can’t be kept secret. Once they come in to complete the formalities, everything will be crystal clear.”
Sheng Qian followed behind into the private ward, where two men and a woman were sitting. They seemed to have just arrived, and their faces showed signs of fatigue. A person was lying quietly on the hospital bed.
His head was wrapped in thick gauze, covering most of his face.
He was covered with a thin blanket, with only his head showing.
Judging from his high, straight nose, he's quite a good-looking young man.
The two men were the same age as Hou Guifang. The woman was dressed in plain clothes, had short hair, and her features were somewhat similar to the two men.
All three were good-looking, and compared to Sheng Ping, the two rough men, they appeared much more refined.
Long Haifeng walked over, trying to force a smile, but couldn't manage it. He could only say to Sheng Ping and Sheng Li with a warm face, "My family situation is special, so I have to trouble you to come over in person."
Hou Guifang then introduced, "This is Yunting's father, Long Haifeng." She then pointed to two other people and said, "This is Yunting's third uncle, Long Xufang, and his eldest aunt, Long Jingyu."
Hou Guifang then introduced Sheng Li and Sheng Ping to the three of them, saying, "These are Xiao Qian's father and uncle."
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, the two sides got down to business.
"Xiaoqian's request from last time will be fulfilled tomorrow," Hou Guifang said.
Long Jingyu then asked, "Xiaoqian, the house in town is ready, so we plan to let you and Yunting stay there for a month first."
A month?
Sheng Qian pointed to the person on the bed: "With him?"
“Yes, these are the conditions we agreed on before,” Long Jingyu reminded her, her voice a little low, clearly not satisfied with Sheng Qian’s reaction.
Sheng Qian raised an eyebrow, wanting to refuse.
It's very uncomfortable to be given an injured person out of the blue.
But this was the result of the original owner's actions. Now that she is married, she has to get a divorce if she wants to get rid of it.
"Wait, the previous conditions were the previous ones. Can I make another condition?" She had no idea what conditions they had exchanged before.
The members of the Long family frowned deeply.
He showed a displeased expression.
Their self-control helped them regain their composure.
Long Haifeng said in a deep voice, "You speak."
“I want a divorce after he wakes up,” Sheng Qian said, pointing to the person on the bed.
The Long family members' faces immediately darkened.
Sheng Ping's eyes widened, but it was too late to stop him.
