Chapter 332 Xia Zhiheng Investigates His Mother
"Zhiqian, where's your brother?"
"My brother was taking care of Grandpa. My sister-in-law and Ah Ying stayed with him for several hours before they just went back."
Su Qingyan had to go back to take care of the child, and Zhou Miaoying was pregnant and couldn't stay away, so they were told to go back first.
"Zhiqian, what happened to your grandfather?"
Xia Guoan asked anxiously, "My parents have always had a very good relationship. If my mother doesn't make it through this, my father probably won't be doing well either."
"Uncle, after Grandma fainted, Grandpa rushed to make a phone call and accidentally tripped and fell. He broke his leg, but the doctor examined him and said he was fine elsewhere."
If it weren't for his grandfather's shouts alerting the neighbors, Xia Zhiqian simply couldn't imagine what the consequences would have been.
"What? Why didn't you tell me about this? Where is your grandfather?"
Xia Zhiqian didn't know why his brother hadn't told his uncle. After they brought their grandparents to the hospital, it was his brother who called his uncle to inform him. He had been staying there with his grandmother, assuming his uncle knew about his grandfather's situation.
"Uncle, my grandfather is on the second floor, in room 206."
While his grandmother was being resuscitated, Xia Zhiqian went to see his grandfather. The doctor said that apart from a broken leg, his grandfather was otherwise fine, but he needed someone to stay by his side.
The doctor just said that his grandmother is out of danger for the time being, and he went to his grandfather's ward to tell them.
"Big brother, I'm going down to see my dad," Xia Guoan said as he walked up to Lin Weidong.
Go!
"Zhiqian, you go with Uncle Xia. We'll take care of things here with Grandma Xia."
Zhang Huaitong took Wu Mingli to rest, and Xia Guoan was left alone. Pei Shizhou was worried, but since he couldn't leave Xia Yichu, he could only have Xia Zhiqian accompany them.
"Okay, Mom, you must be tired after a long day. Why don't you go back first? My uncle and his family are at the hospital. You can cook some rice for Grandpa tomorrow morning and bring it over."
Xia Zhiqian turned around and saw his mother standing in the corner telling him that it was almost ten o'clock. There was no point in keeping too many people at the hospital; they still needed to cook something for his grandfather early tomorrow morning.
Grandpa and Grandma also need care during the day; they can't all stay at the hospital. Someone has to go home to rest so that someone else can come and take care of them tomorrow.
"Yes, sister-in-law, you go back first. We'll take care of Mom and Dad here."
"Okay, call me if you need anything."
Yang Yunxia nodded in agreement, and Pei Shizhou watched her walk away with them. He'd heard she'd been living with Grandpa and Grandma Xia recently; he wondered where she was when Grandma Xia had her accident.
"Zhiheng"
Xia Guoan pushed open the door and saw Xia Zhiheng standing by the bedside; his father seemed to be asleep.
"Uncle, Grandpa just fell asleep after learning that Grandma is out of danger. Let's go outside to talk."
Xia Guoan glanced at his father, nodded, and followed Xia Zhiheng out, closing the door behind them.
"Zhiheng, who exactly is spouting nonsense in front of your grandmother?"
"Uncle, I asked Grandpa, and he said that he was playing chess with Grandpa Huang at Grandpa's house at the time. When he left, Grandma was lying in bed listening to the radio, just like usual."
When he came back, he saw his grandmother faint in the living room. His grandfather had been gone for almost an hour and didn't know when his grandmother had fainted.
At that time, Grandpa touched Grandma's nose with his hand and found that she had just fainted, so he quickly tried to pinch Grandma's philtrum.
Grandma briefly regained consciousness, her words trembling as she said, "Xiao Chu has been kidnapped by spies. Tell Grandpa to call Uncle immediately." Then she fainted again and hasn't woken up since.
So, we don't know where Grandma heard the news from. Uncle, is Xiao Chu really...?
Xia Guoan nodded seriously and said, "Yes, but very few people know about this. I didn't even tell you. Also, Xiao Chu was rescued not long after I went to Pengcheng."
After a moment of silence, Xia Guoan looked at the two brothers, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.
"Uncle, is there anything else? Did something happen to Xiao Chu?" Xia Zhiheng asked anxiously, seeing Xia Guoan's expression.
"No, Xiao Chu is fine! I wanted to ask where your mother was at the time?"
"Uncle, what do you mean? Do you suspect my mother? Impossible, how could my mother know about spies? She couldn't possibly have done something so vicious to my grandmother."
Besides, my mother basically doesn't have any contact with the Yang family anymore; she's changed a lot lately.
Now that the Yang family isn't stirring things up, Xia Zhiqian thinks his mother is doing quite well. She's very patient taking care of her grandmother and has been treating Aying well lately too.
"Uncle, I've had someone check. My mom was working at her workplace at the time."
For some reason, when Xia Zhiheng learned that his grandparents had an accident, his first suspicion was that of his mother, and he took the time to make a phone call to have someone investigate.
Fortunately, his mother went to work after finishing her chores at his grandmother's house and didn't have time to do this. Xia Zhiheng breathed a sigh of relief; he was genuinely afraid of discovering problems.
"Brother, why are you also suspicious of Mom and even had someone investigate her? If Mom finds out, she'll make a scene again."
Xia Zhiqian said with dissatisfaction, "It's one thing for my uncle to doubt my mother without knowing the situation."
Is his brother having a professional habit of suspecting everyone? Just because his mother lives with his grandparents, he's even starting to suspect his own mother.
"Zhiqian, this matter involves spies. I'm doing this for Mom's own good; it would be best if we could clear her of suspicion."
Xia Zhiheng didn't want to doubt his own mother, but based on her past actions, he felt that she was cunning and not as simple as she seemed on the surface.
"Zhiqian, your brother is right. According to the spies, there are still spies in Kyoto. It's always better to be careful."
"Uncle, my mother definitely has nothing to do with spies."
Xia Zhiqian confidently stated that his mother had been controlled by his maternal grandmother for half her life, and with her personality, how could she possibly be related to spies?
"Zhiqian, I didn't say your mother was connected to spies. I was afraid the spies would use our family members to target our own family."
After hearing his uncle's explanation, Xia Zhiqian felt a little better.
"No, my mom goes to work every day and then goes home to take care of my grandparents. She won't be taken advantage of."
"Alright, now that your brother has investigated, let's leave it at that. Let Zhiqian stay and take care of your grandfather. Zhiheng, you go back and rest first, and come to relieve Zhiqian later tonight. I'll take care of Grandma, so don't worry about her."
The two brothers had no objection to Xia Guoan's arrangements, but Xia Zhiheng was worried about his wife and children at home. Zhou Miaoying was newly pregnant and couldn't eat anything, suffering from severe morning sickness. Zhiqian was busy, so Aunt Chunhua had been taking care of her recently.
So now only Su Qingyan and the child are at home. Xia Zhiheng followed Xia Guoan upstairs, glanced at his grandmother, and said goodbye to Xia Yichu and the others before going home.
In the morning, Su Qingyan and Yang Yunxia appeared at the hospital entrance at the same time, each carrying a lunchbox.
"Mom, you're here too."
Su Qingyan greeted them with a smile, then took the child to Zhou Miaoying's place, where Aunt Chunhua was taking care of the child. She had come to the hospital today to relieve her uncle and take care of her grandparents.
Yang Yunxia nodded. "I'll bring some food to your grandfather."
The two walked in together, first going to Grandpa Xia's ward. They didn't speak to each other along the way, and the atmosphere was somewhat awkward.
When they arrived at the ward, they saw Xia Zhiheng helping Grandpa Xia wash his face and wipe his hands. The two of them greeted Grandpa Xia.
"grandfather"
"dad"
"Mom, Qingyan, you're here."
