Chapter 735: 194: Go to Ni Family _6

Doctor Jiang nodded, “True, contentment breeds happiness.”

After some more chatting with Old Lady Zheng, Doctor Jiang left the Zheng Family.

Zheng Lingling saw Doctor Jiang to the door.

“Please watch your step.”

Doctor Jiang nodded, “I will. Also, according to your mother, she seems to have given up finding Tingting. If you have a chance, try to persuade her. Blood is thicker than water after all, she should still try to look for her.”

Upon hearing this, Zheng Lingling’s face was filled with disbelief.

Not looking for her?

That old witch really gave up?

She just gave up on her own daughter?

Zheng Lingling narrowed her eyes, “Alright, I will try to persuade my mother. Thank you for today.”

“You’re welcome.”

The study room upstairs in the Zheng’s home.

When Doctor Jiang had just left, Master Zheng came in. “Aqing, I met a girl today with excellent medical skills. Your health keeps deteriorating, let’s have her take a look.”

Old Lady Zheng laughed, “Look who’s talking! I wonder who the one refusing medical treatment is!”

Master Zheng had nothing to say.

Old Lady Zheng added, “Xiaoyan says my health is fine, there’s no need to call another doctor, right?”

“I think she’s a quack. She always says you’re fine but your constant coughing proves otherwise!” Master Zheng furrowed his brow.

Old Lady Zheng laughed, “It’s just a bit of coughing. No need to overreact!” As soon as she finished, Old Lady Zheng started coughing violently.

“Are you alright?” Master Zheng quickly patted Old Lady Zheng’s back.

“Don’t worry, it’s not going to kill me,” Old Lady Zheng reassured, waving her hand.

Master Zheng’s face fell, “Don’t talk about dying!”

Old Lady looked at him in surprise.

Master Zheng continued, “Until we find Tingting, we all have to stay well! Nobody can talk about death!”

He wants to meet his daughter alive.

Old Lady Zheng laughed, “Alright, we won’t talk about it.”

Master Zheng insisted, “Aqing, seriously, you should let that girl examine you.”

Old Lady Zheng replied, “Xiaoyan has been taking care of my illness all along. If suddenly another doctor comes in, how will Xiaoyan feel?”

Not to mention her longstanding friendship with Doctor Jiang.

Master Zheng considered, then continued, “How about this? We’ll go to that girl’s house directly, so she can check on me too. We’ll keep it a secret, not telling anyone.”

“That could work,” Old Lady Zheng nodded.

As long as it doesn’t embarrass Doctor Jiang.

“Let’s go tomorrow then,” Master Zheng added.

“Alright, we’ll go with your plan.”

The two old people chatted some more and just then, there was a knock on the door. Zheng Xianjing walked in with two bowls of Ginseng Soup, “Grandpa, grandma, it’s time for your soup.”

“Okay,” Old Lady Zheng nodded cheerfully.

Master Zheng took a bowl, drank it all, and walked out without a word.

He wasn’t particularly close to Zheng Xianjing, but he wasn’t indifferent to her either.

He simply had nothing to say.

Unlike other families, grandparents and grandchildren always have lots of things to talk about.

Master Zheng could go a whole year without exchanging a word with Zheng Xianjing and Zheng Lingling.

Zheng Xianjing watched Master Zheng’s retreating figure with a flash of resentment in her eyes.

She’s always been kind to Master Zheng, but he never treated her like his own granddaughter.

He only cared about his own daughter!

It was surprising how dutiful and respectful Zheng Lingling was, making Ginseng Soup for them every day. What a waste of filial piety.

“Xianjing, when did you get back?” Old Lady Zheng asked.

School had started by now, and Zheng Xianjing was normally in the dorm.

Zheng Xianjing smiled, “I just got back, grandma.”

“The school canteen is terrible, making you lose weight. Let Chef Liu make you something delicious tonight to replenish yourself,” suggested Old Lady Zheng.

But Old Lady Zheng didn’t truly care about her.

If she really cared, she wouldn’t have Chef Liu make the food. She would do it herself. As a grandmother, Old Lady Zheng never even made her a bowl of porridge, let alone anything else!

Was it just because her mother wasn’t her biological daughter?

How ironic!

Zheng Xianjing cursed Old Lady Zheng hundreds of times in her mind, but her face remained smiling. “Grandma, I’m not skinny at all. Besides, these days people in Western countries don’t favor being overweight. It’s better to be slim.”

Zhao Family.

Old Lady Zhao chatted at length with Shangguan Furong.

At that moment, a servant came to knock at the door, “Old Lady, the people from the nursing home are here.”

“So soon?” Old Lady Zhao was a little surprised, then she looked at Shangguan Furong and said, “Furong, the people from the nursing home are here. Can you please help me check? I’ve already paid them.”

“What are the people from the nursing home here for?” Shangguan Furong was curious.

“They’re here to pick up Old Lady Chang,” Old Lady Zhao replied.

Hearing this, Shangguan Furong was even more puzzled.

Old Lady Zhao sighed, “Speaking of Old Lady Chang, she is Lin Fang’s former mother-in-law, also a pitiable woman. Her only son died in a car accident, leaving her paralyzed and alone. She previously suffered a lot under Lin Fang’s hands. Now that she’s lost all her ability to work, I found a nursing home for her to live in.”

When Lin Fang married into the family, she brought Old Lady Chang with her. Old Lady Chang was now taken care of by Zhao Family’s servants. Now that Lin Fang was in prison and Old Lady Chang was bedridden, they couldn’t just abandon her.

That would be an atrocious act.

Shangguan Furong remembered that indeed, Lin Fang had a bedridden mother-in-law. She nodded, “Okay, I’ll go check.”

“Wait, Furong,” Old Lady Zhao seemed to remember something.

“What’s up?” Shangguan Furong turned back.

Old Lady Zhao continued, “Can you ask the people from the nursing home to come back later? In a few days, Yangyang will come to follow up with my condition. We can ask her to examine Old Lady Chang as well. Now that Old Lady Chang can’t talk or move, it’s really pitiful.”

Old lady has also experienced similar desperation.

“Alright,” Shangguan Furong nodded.

The next day was Monday.

At around ten in the morning, Master Zheng and Old Lady Zheng arrived at Jinghua Village by car.

The cement road in Jinghua Village was still under construction, so the car could only stop at the entrance of the village.

As soon as they got off the car, Old Lady Zheng exclaimed, “The air here is so fresh.”

Master Zheng took a coat and draped it over Old Lady Zheng’s shoulders, “The temperature difference between outdoors and indoors is quite large, don’t catch a cold.”

“Hmm,” Old Lady Zheng snuggled into her coat.

The Ni Family’s small courtyard was not hard to find. It wasn’t long before the two old people found the main gate.

“Excuse me, is anyone home?”

“Chirp chirp …” A Mynah bird flew out from the yard, circling in the air.

Just then, the door opened.

Opening the door was Ni Yang. Seeing the visitors, she was surprised and said, “Grandma Zheng! Grandpa Zheng?”

It turns out that these two old people are from the same family!

Old Lady Zheng was equally surprised, “Yangyang!”
