"Ma'am, are you okay?"
Gu Qingning was shocked and hurried forward to check her physical condition.
What surprised her was that after seeing that the old lady was in poor health, Lu Changqing chose to step forward and support the old lady immediately.
He was very considerate and careful to let the old lady lean on him so that she wouldn't continue lying on the cold ground.
Seeing the old lady so angry at him, Lu Hongjun took a step back and said stubbornly, "Mom, why did you have to put on such a show for me? Everyone knows that you have the best health. You were a soldier back then and served in the army for so long."
Gu Qingning's face darkened. "As her son, don't you feel a little sorry for your mother? Don't you know that your mother was once poisoned?"
Even if she had never been poisoned, the old lady is now 80 years old.
Even though she was stronger than her peers, she was beginning to feel overwhelmed.
"Poisoned? How is that possible! Stop slandering me here. You should know that Bai Huan and I have been taking care of the old lady's daily life and have never let outsiders interfere. How could she be poisoned?"
After saying this, Lu Hongjun seemed to have thought of something, and his face suddenly became ugly.
"I think you just want to use this to slander Bai Huan!"
Gu Qingning was so angry that she laughed: "How would I know who among you will be responsible for the old lady's food and daily life? If you still have a brain, think about it carefully!"
"Don't order me around here. I'm a member of the Lu family, and you're just an outsider!"
However, looking at his current appearance, he is no different from outsiders.
Even worse than these two outsiders.
He left angrily, feeling more and more that he only had two relatives in this world, Bai Huan and Lu Jian.
He will never consider this family as his own family again!
After he left, Gu Qingning quickly ordered 888 to continue examining the old lady.
"She was fine the past two days, but for some reason, it seems like the poison has invaded her body again these past two days. This time, it's completely drained the old lady's body."
Gu Qingning sighed deeply and quickly took out a few pills from the immortal cultivation plane.
The old lady's body was too weak. Even after taking the elixir and detoxifying herself, her body's vitality could not be fully restored.
Lu Changqing sent her back to the room and let her lie down comfortably.
"I'm sorry, Chang Qing, and you, Qing Ning, you saved me again!"
Gu Qingning breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the old woman, though frail, was finally out of danger. "Old lady, don't worry about anything else. Just take a good rest!"
"Cough cough cough..." The old lady closed her eyes weakly.
"Have you eaten anything in the past two days? Have you been in contact with anyone?"
The old lady paused, obviously having thought of something.
She shook her head: "Qing Ning, this matter has nothing to do with you. You don't have to worry about me anymore. Don't worry, I will take good care of myself. I still have to wait for my great-grandson to be born!"
It’s pitiful how loving parents are. Even though the old lady had already noticed something, she still kept her mouth shut and said nothing.
Lu Changqing also saw through her thoughts and did not continue to ask.
But his face looked very bad.
"Old Madam, I'm also going to be a mother soon. I just feel that sometimes, blindly indulging a child won't help them grow, but will instead make them fall into a deeper abyss.
If you keep covering for him and don't let him bear the consequences himself, he will never grow up and will only cause more trouble in the future."
As an adult, you must be responsible for your own actions.
If you always rely on your family to support you, you will never grow.
Although Gu Qingning loves children, she will never spoil them.
The old lady nodded: "I know, from now on, I will pretend that I don't have this son!"
She lay in bed alone, but did not forget to ask the driver to take them both back.
"Even though it's autumn, the scorching heat is still biting people. It's okay for you, but your wife is pregnant. How can she withstand such harsh weather?"
After hearing this, Lu Changqing no longer refused the old lady's kindness.
The old lady also smiled with relief.
The two of them returned to the village in a car.
Even though so many cars had arrived in the village in such a short time, everyone was still looking forward to it.
Several children surrounded the car, praising it and chirping like little sparrows.
As soon as they saw the two of them get out of the car, the expressions of several people changed.
"Where did this car come from? Did you two meet some kind of distinguished person?"
Lu Changqing kept silent as usual, as if nothing had happened.
Like him, Gu Qingning did not intend to tell the truth. She only said that he was a friend she met in the city and was specially giving her a ride.
Many people were amazed and praised her for being lucky, knowledgeable and capable.
An auntie who was not on good terms with the driver nearby started to rush to the car with her child in her arms: "I am so old and my grandson is so young and has never ridden in a car before. Let us sit in it!"
"How can that be? This car is not mine!"
Gu Qingning would never tolerate such unreasonable requests.
"Why are you so stingy? What's wrong with riding in your car? It's not like you're going to break it down!"
This auntie obviously didn't think she had gone too far, and was about to go up while cursing.
Gu Qingning simply closed the car's doors and said, "Do you know who owns this car? It belongs to a state agency. If you damage it, even the lives of your entire family won't compensate you enough!"
The aunt's face changed and she left with the child in her arms.
He said with dirty words: "Tsk, you really think you are so great just because you found a job in the city? You look down on us country folk."
Gu Qingning didn't bother to care about such sour words: "What I did is shameful. Every time I do it, I just use the countryside to make trouble. No one looks down on the countryside, it's just that everyone looks down on you!"
Everyone burst into laughter and ridiculed the shameless aunt.
At this moment, Chen Jing, who had just embarked on the journey back to the city, naturally saw this scene.
It seems that before returning to the city, she can still trip up Gu Qingning again.
She quickly pulled over the aunt who was being ridiculed and said a few words to her. Only then did the aunt leave with a satisfied smile.
As for herself, she sneered and set out on the road back to the city.
"What? He went to jail himself? Who the hell is this guy you're looking for? Not only is he a country bumpkin, but now he's a prisoner in a labor camp!"
Chen's mother was so angry that she slapped the table.
