Chapter 22 The Stubborn Old Lady

Uncle Zhang stood aside and almost laughed out loud. Did the Second Master know how his grandmother framed him in front of outsiders?

When Meng Qingyi heard this, her eyes raised, she bit her lip and tried to hold back her smile.

But she began to think about the old lady's words. She had never been in love before? Then where did Chu Yan come from? Meng Qingyi was very suspicious.

Seeing that she hadn't spoken for a long time, the old lady turned her head and glanced at her.

Meng Qingyi came back to her senses and coughed twice, "I guess I didn't meet someone Mr. Chu likes!"

"Who knows, what kind does Xiaoer like?"

"I think Doctor Meng is a very good person. Does Doctor Meng have a boyfriend?" The old lady leaned back in her chair, changed the subject, and looked back at Meng Qingyi.

Meng Qingyi blushed slightly. Why did both of them like to ask her this question?

She paused, shook her head, and said modestly: "Mr. Chu is handsome, how can I reach his height? Please stop joking, old lady."

The old lady muttered quietly, "That may not be the case."

But Meng Qingyi did not hear these words.

"Doctor Meng, you are too modest. Doctor Meng and I really have a connection. Could you please add Doctor Meng on WeChat?" The old lady changed the subject and started to add Meng Qingyi as a friend.

Meng Qingyi curled her lips. The old lady was really fashionable and even knew how to use WeChat.

Meng Qingyi and the old lady got along very well. She tilted her head and agreed readily.

After Meng Qingyi's massage, the old lady's frown relaxed, the dizziness in her head eased a little, and she leaned back in the chair comfortably.

Chu Yan's tense little face also relaxed. He looked at Meng Qingyi's actions with disdain and took note of them silently.

The two of them became friends, and the old lady then spoke, "I think I'm about the same age as your grandmother, so don't call me old lady, it's strange. Just follow the waiter and call me grandma."

"I won't call you Doctor Meng anymore. What do your family members usually call you?"

When talking about grandma, Meng Qingyi's body paused obviously, her fingers clenched for a few seconds, she exhaled, and then loosened them.

"My grandfather calls me Yiyi." Meng Qingyi respected the old lady in her heart. Looking at her, she thought of her deceased grandmother and said it without reservation.

The old lady held Meng Qingyi's hand, with a kind face, and said with a smile: "Yiyi."

"Grandma." Meng Qingyi called out shyly. When she was a child, she also longed for the title of grandma, but... it's better not to mention it.

The old lady recovered and stood up, leaning on the armrest of the chair. She trembled slightly and said, "Then Yiyi, you go ahead and do your work. We'll leave and come to our house for dinner another day."

Meng Qingyi thought for a moment, then glanced at the old lady and said, "Grandma, do you want to go get a checkup? I see you haven't recovered yet."

"Yes, old lady, since we are already at the hospital, you should go for a check-up so that we can feel at ease." Uncle Zhang handed over the crutches with a worried look on his face.

Chu Yan also grabbed the corner of the old lady's clothes and looked up at her.

The old lady sighed and held Chu Yan's hand, "I know my own body, there is nothing to check."

The old lady's tone was firm and unquestionable. Uncle Zhang and Meng Qingyi didn't know what to say.

"Then I'll get you some calming and brain-nourishing medicine. If it doesn't work, you must come to the hospital as soon as possible." Meng Qingyi reminded, with a worried look on her face.

If she met Mr. Chu, she would have a good talk with him and ask the old lady to see a doctor as soon as possible.

The old lady nodded and held Meng Qingyi's hand. "Girl, did I delay your meal? We'll leave first. I'll ask Uncle Zhang to bring you lunch later."

"Don't bother, grandma. The hospital cafeteria is still open. I'll go downstairs and eat later."

The old lady sighed, "That's impossible! You've been delayed until now because of us. Uncle Zhang's braised pork is delicious. You must try it."

"Yes, Doctor Meng, it's not a big deal, I'll be there right away." Uncle Zhang echoed. Seeing that she couldn't refuse, Meng Qingyi had no choice but to agree.

After the three people left, Meng Qingyi took a short rest and then started to get busy again.

……

On the other side, when Chu Jingyan returned to the old house, Uncle Zhang was packing the braised pork and other side dishes.

When Chu Jingyan saw this, he frowned and asked, "Uncle Zhang, what are you doing?"

"Second Master, this is what the old lady asked me to give to Doctor Meng. It's because we went too late and delayed Doctor Meng's lunch." Uncle Zhang said with a smile.

Chu Jingyan frowned even more tightly. It was almost three o'clock now. Hadn't she had lunch yet?

"By the time it's delivered, the day lily will be cold." Chu Jingyan complained.

"Don't worry, Second Master. Doctor Meng has already eaten. She just called and said that she asked her colleagues to bring the meal, so we don't have to worry." Uncle Zhang packed up all the food and was about to arrange for someone to deliver it.

Chu Jingyan's tightly knitted brows relaxed a little, and he looked at the lunch box in Uncle Zhang's hand, "In that case, I'm just passing by the hospital, I'll take it over there."

Uncle Zhang looked at him suspiciously and smiled, "Thank you very much, Second Master."

"Where are grandma and Chu Yan?"

"The old lady and the young master are taking a nap upstairs. The old lady hasn't been in good spirits since she came back from the hospital, and she has been sleeping until now." Uncle Zhang looked worried.

"Doctor Meng asked the old lady to do a checkup, but she said she would not do anything. Second Master, what do you think we should do?"

Chu Jingyan frowned and lowered his voice, "I'll think of a solution another day."

"In that case, I won't go up to disturb her. Let Chu Yan stay here today. I'll pick him up tomorrow."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Yan came down from the stairs in his slippers. When he saw Chu Jingyan, his face was full of joy.

Quicken your pace and shout loudly: "Dad."

Chu Jingyan picked him up, and he hooked his arms around Chu Jingyan's neck, "Dad, you're back, I missed you so much." His little face was pressed against his chest, moving back and forth.

Chu Jingyan patted his little butt and asked, "Have you been good these days? Have you listened to Grandma and Grandpa Zhang?"

"Of course." The little guy smiled and swung his legs.

"That's good." Chu Jingyan put him down, "You continue to stay here today. Dad is going out for a while and will pick you up tomorrow."

"Dad, where are you going?" Chu Yan asked suspiciously.

"Second Master is going to the hospital to bring food to Dr. Meng!" Uncle Zhang took over the conversation.

"Really? I want to go too!"

"I didn't have a good chat with my sister this morning. I have a lot to say to her."

Chu Yan raised his head and stared at Chu Jingyan.

Chu Jingyan pinched his brows and said in a tough tone, "Have you finished your homework? You just want to go out and play?"

"It will be the same if I write tomorrow."

"Do you want to go to the amusement park tomorrow?"

"If you behave yourself today, I'll take you to the amusement park tomorrow, and you can also date your favorite kid."

Chu Yan was conflicted, twirling his fingers and thinking, "Okay, I won't go."
