Chapter 157 Another purpose
Lu Tianyu took a deep breath, "Aunt, I..."
"Xiao He needs to rest." Lu Junyan interrupted him halfway through his words.
Lu Tianyu understood that his uncle did not forgive him.
With his head hung down, Lu Tianyu looked very dejected.
"Okay, why are you still wandering around outside instead of going home to see your son?" Old Master Lu glared at him impatiently, "You are already a father, can't you let the elders at home worry less? It all depends on your performance from now on."
Lu Tianyu understood, "Mom and Dad, Uncle and Aunt, I'm going home first."
Bai Baozhi watched his son leave the ward, thoughtfully.
"It's getting late today. I think we should go back and not disturb Xiao He's rest here." Mr. Lu said, standing up with his crutches, "Let's go."
Bai Baozhi gave Xia He a few simple instructions and left.
Lu Demin patted Lu Junyan on the shoulder and said, "Take good care of Xiaohe and the children."
Lu Junyan nodded slightly and said, "He would."
After they left, the whole ward became quiet. The children had just fallen asleep after drinking milk and were sleeping soundly in the trolleys.
"Do you want to sleep for a while?" Lu Junyan asked in a low and gentle voice.
"No," she slept too much during the day and couldn't sleep at night. Xia He shook her head, "Have you thought of a name for the child?"
The names the old man came up with were all good, and Xia He was in a dilemma.
"I've thought it through." Lu Junyan said, "The son will be named Zhiheng, and the daughter will be named Zhiran."
Xia He remembered these two names, they were two of the many good names chosen by the old man.
"Lu Zhiheng, Lu Zhiran," Xia He repeated, "It sounds nice."
"Well," Lu Junyan was about to say something while holding Xia He's hand when Old Lady Kou came.
This was the first time the Kou family came to see Xia He after she gave birth.
Xia He thought to herself that maybe after the old lady knew the truth, she no longer planned to acknowledge her as her granddaughter.
Xia He didn't care. The Kou family treated her well because of her original identity.
Lu Junyan treats her well simply because she is Xia He!
Besides, now that she has children, Xia He feels very happy.
As for what other people think or do, she won't care, let alone take it to heart.
Lu Junyan sat beside the bed without moving, and no longer had the same "respect" for Old Mrs. Kou as before.
In fact, the main reason was that Old Mrs. Kou knew that Xia He had given birth to a child, but no one in the Kou family came to see her.
The meaning is self-evident; they have no intention of recognizing Xia He.
Lu Junyan respected them because they were Xia He's relatives.
But if they treat Xia He badly, it doesn't matter whether they recognize this relationship or not.
Kou Zhuang seemed to no longer be as close to Xia He as before, and his smile was stiff. "Xiao He, I should have come to see you earlier. Your grandmother is not in good health, and I was worried that she would pass the disease on to you and the children. That's why I came a little late. Where are the children? Let me see!"
"The children are sleeping." Xia He smiled faintly, "Grandma, you should take care of yourself. You don't need to come to see me."
Old Mrs. Kou sighed, "You are still blaming me, kid."
"No." Xia He's smile faded. "I'm not your granddaughter, so it's not strange at all."
"Didn't I tell you that even if you are not her, you have the same blood as my daughter, so I have to recognize you as my granddaughter." Old Mrs. Kou raised her hand as if to hold Xia He's hand, but Lu Junyan held it tightly and refused to give it to her.
Old Mrs. Kou could only withdraw her hand in embarrassment.
"This is the red envelope I gave to my two children. Keep it."
Xia He politely said "thank you", then thought of something and looked at Lu Junyan, "Do you have any money with you?"
Lu Junyan said "hmm" and immediately understood what Xia He meant.
"Take it with you."
Lu Junyan took out a wad of money from the bag left by his brother. "These are the red envelopes that the old lady gave to Xia He before. There are more here than not. If you don't believe me, you can count them again!"
"What are you doing?" Old Mrs. Kou frowned. How could she take back the red envelope she had given out? Moreover, this was given by the elders to the younger generation!
If she took back the red envelope, it would be equivalent to not recognizing her granddaughter.
"I won't accept the red envelopes from the children either," Xia He smiled. She appreciated the children's blessings, but she didn't want the red envelopes given to her.
Old Mrs. Kou looked very unhappy, "I don't want it."
"..." Lu Junyan handed the money over directly, but Mrs. Kou refused to take it.
Kou Zhuang pushed it back, "Jun Yan, keep it well."
"..." Lu Junyan said nothing and forced it into Kou Zhuang's hand.
Kou Zhuang and Old Lady Kou were both a little at a loss, this...
"I suddenly feel a little tired." Xia He said, meaning that they needed to rest and go out.
Old Mrs. Kou staggered, "Let's go back!"
Kou Zhuang supported the old lady's arm and looked at Xia He hesitantly, "Okay, then you should have a good rest first, and we will come to see you in two days."
After saying that, the mother and son of the Kou family walked out of the ward. Old Mrs. Kou's ward was downstairs, and they changed the ward door. The mother and son both looked a little solemn.
"Mom, this girl is not as innocent as we thought. We should have gone to see her earlier." Kou Zhuang frowned, worried about what would happen next. "Now they even return the red envelopes they gave out. It's clear that they don't intend to recognize our relationship. All the efforts we made before are in vain."
"Why are you in such a hurry?" Old Mrs. Kou looked up at him and gave him a calming look. "Everything needs to be done slowly. You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. Do you think that even if this incident didn't happen, she would be willing to help us?"
Kou Zhuang said nothing.
"Well, she just gave birth to a child, and her current physical condition does not allow it. We have to at least wait until she finishes the confinement period." This is a good opportunity to take advantage of the confinement period to get closer to her.
"Mom, they're waiting at the hospital." Kou Zhuang stopped talking abruptly. He understood the principle that walls have ears.
"We have to wait even if we can't. If we tell it at the wrong time, then all our efforts will be in vain."
Old Mrs. Kou said earnestly, "Send her some soup from time to time in the next two days so that she can get well as soon as possible, so as not to delay important matters."
Kou Zhuang: "Understood."
……
Blacksmith Zheng didn't want to get divorced, but he said he would not divorce his wife because he had paid a high price for her.
Xia Bao was not in a hurry, but instead took a step back.
"I didn't expect you to have such deep feelings for my sister. If that's the case, then I'm relieved."
Blacksmith Zheng was confused. What did Xia Bao mean?
"What happened to your sister?"
"Alas." Xia Bao sighed heavily, "I know I can't hide this from you for too long, so I'll tell you the truth now. My sister has been crippled by you."
