MTL - After Breaking Off the Engagement, She Went To the Countryside and Was Pinched By a Rough Man and Pampered

Xia Zhi looked at the dumplings he had prepared and found that there might be too many. After thinking about it, Zhou Zhengan had to work overtime.

 If you go to the canteen to eat, it will be tasteless.

 First, I packed a whole insulated lunch box with cooked dumplings.

 This is for the old man.

Not only does it bring vinegar, but also mashed garlic and other seasonings.

 Originally, I made two cold side dishes, but now I also served them to the old man.

 I drove directly to the hospital. It was not yet 5 o'clock, and it was actually not time to eat.

But she wanted to come here earlier. She also wanted to visit the Criminal Investigation Brigade later.

Walking into the ward, I found that there was no one in the old man's ward. The old man was lying on the bed alone reading the newspaper.

Even though he was half-relying on the pillow, it was obvious that the old man didn't look too good.

 I always feel that the old man’s face is a little sad.

 Seeing Xia Xia coming in, the old man quickly and quietly wiped the water from the corners of his eyes and said with a smile,

 “Xiaoxia, why are you here so early?”

Xia Zhi smiled and put the insulated lunch box on the bedside table next to her, and pushed the dining table over.

“Grandpa, what did you eat for lunch? I was worried that you were hungry, so I came to deliver the meal in advance. I made dumplings.”

 Putting away the newspaper calmly, I saw that there was nothing special in the newspaper. I didn’t know why the old man felt sad.

 The old man perked up upon hearing this.

 “Okay, okay, I’m just craving for dumplings.

 In fact, you don’t have to go out of your way to eat something just because I want to eat it.

 Make what is comfortable for you. You young people are busy, so you should be busy with your own work first. "

 Xia Zhi smiled,

“Grandpa, my job is as a self-employed business, so I have more free time. I can come back early after finishing things during the day.”

“Grandpa has two kinds of fillings for dumplings, one is stuffed with three delicacies, the one with this color is stuffed with three delicacies, and this one is stuffed with carrots and mutton.”

 “Try it.”

　　Prepare the chopsticks and bowls for the old man, and take out the condiments.

There were side dishes and two kinds of dumplings in front of the old man. Just smelling the taste made the old man look satisfied.

“Well, I haven’t eaten dumplings stuffed with mutton and carrots for a long time. My aunt at home can’t make mutton well, and it always tastes fishy every time.

Later on, people gradually stopped making mutton fillings and replaced them with pork fillings. "

“Chenghua likes to eat dumplings stuffed with mutton the most, and the dumplings stuffed with mutton she makes are also the most delicious.

I haven’t eaten the delicious mutton filling dumplings she made in many years. "

“Your dumplings are really as good as hers, but the taste of you two is still a little different.”

“Every time that kid makes dumplings stuffed with mutton, he always puts a little bit of other seasonings in it, which is always a little weird.

I also found a lot of excuses saying that this can cover up the fishy smell. "

"well!"

The old man said this casually while eating dumplings stuffed with carrots and mutton.

 Xia Zhi raised his head and could see the hope and sadness in the old man's eyes.

“Grandpa, who is Chenghua?”

 She doesn’t know much about the Shen family.

 After all, Zhou Zhengan rarely mentioned the Shen family, and he and Zhou Zhengan also avoided mentioning their respective families.

 The families behind each are the wounds on their hearts.

“Chenghua is my little daughter, so logically you have to call me aunt.

Where is my little aunt?

One day when I see my little aunt, I have to ask her for advice on how to make your favorite dumplings stuffed with mutton. "

 The old man sighed and shook his head.

"Her, forget it! If we don't have this person in the Shen family, just think that I don't have this daughter."

 The old man never spoke again. Xia Zhi didn't say anything anymore. Obviously this Chenghua should be a taboo of the Shen family.

The old man asked strangely when Xia Zhi didn't see anyone coming after dinner.

 “Grandpa, where are my uncle and aunt?”

Although the old man will not undergo surgery, there should still be someone by his side. If anything happens to the old man, someone will always notify the doctor.

 After all, the old man had a cerebral hemorrhage. If the bleeding point expanded, it would compress the nerves at any time, causing fainting or other problems.

“The two of them said that there was something going on at the work unit, so they went back to deal with it and came over right away. As a result, they left all afternoon.”

When the old man talked about this, he had to admit that he still felt a little emotional.

 I am old and it seems that I am not popular with others.

 Even his son doesn’t want to be with him.

 Xia Zhi smiled.

“Grandpa, let’s play chess.”

With a smile, he actually took out a chessboard from his backpack. When the old man saw it, he immediately became happy.

“Hey, when did you prepare this thing?”

"I know you must be bored in the ward all the time, so I just want to play chess with you."

The two of them had just finished two games of chess when Uncle Shen hurried over and wiped the sweat from his head.

 Seeing that the summer solstice had arrived, he smiled and said,

"Xiaoxia, I knew you would come to deliver food in the evening, so it was a little late to deal with it."

He looked back at the old man and said,

 “Dad, have you eaten?”

"After eating, I will probably starve to death if I wait for you two. Are you two going to walk for a while?"

"If you are really busy, you two don't have to come over. It's okay. I can do it alone."

 The old man knows that his son is busy!

 My son has not retired yet, so he can certainly understand this situation.

 But he did not require his son to stay here, and he was busy with work while accompanying him.

 But leaving myself here alone like this makes me feel a little uncomfortable.

Uncle Shen blushed. In fact, he was busy when he went back to work to work.

 But it’s not so busy that I can’t spare time.

 He just felt that when he was with the old man in the ward, the two of them had nothing to say and seemed a little awkward with each other.

 So I pretended to be busy in the office to delay time.

 But when I saw Xia Zhi and the old man playing chess, the two of them were smiling.

Every young man can think of ways to make the old man happy, but he didn't think of this trick at all.

 Suddenly, I felt panicked and felt that my son was a bit like a deserter.

  I didn’t put myself in the old man’s shoes, I just considered my own feelings.

“Dad, I’ll take care of things today. Don’t worry, it won’t happen like this next time.”

Uncle Shen felt a little guilty. His father had always been very strict with his three sons, so they were not close to their father.

 This is my only chance to accompany my father as an adult.

 But he actually found a chance to hide out.

　　If you follow people’s words, it’s really unfilial.

“It’s okay, if you’re busy, just do your business. I’m not doing surgery now.

 It doesn’t matter whether there is someone around or not.

　　Go back in the evening. You haven’t eaten yet after a busy day. So go back and eat first so you don’t have to come over in the evening. "

“Have a good rest. I have a doctor and a nurse. Nothing will happen to you.”

The more the old man said this, the more guilty Uncle Shen felt.

“Dad, I’ll go back and have a meal first. I’ll be back in a moment.” (End of chapter)
