Protagonist:

Chai Mi

A single sentence from Chai Mi pulled Liu Zhijing out of his somewhat dazed inner world.

Liu Zhanggui and his wife had been divorced for several years; previously Liu Zhijing often went to his maternal grandmother's home, but later his mother went out to work and seldom returned, so the number of times Liu Zhijing went there decreased.

By the time Liu Zhijing opened his own motorcycle repair shop, he himself was busy, and the number of times he went became even fewer.

This year, only after the New Year, during the first lunar month, Liu Zhijing went to see his mother once; thinking about it, it's been nearly half a year since he last saw her.

Hearing Chai Mi say this, although Liu Zhijing was somewhat baffled — because Liu Zhijing didn't know how Chai Mi knew his mother was sick; after all, his mother's maternal family was very far from Sanjiacun — Liu Zhijing still believed her.

"My mother is sick? What illness?"

Chai Mi scratched her head, becoming a bit embarrassed.

In her previous life, Chai Mi had heard of this matter: Liu Zhijing's mother got cervical cancer and passed away young. But right now it seems she hasn't fallen ill yet...

However, counting the days, she should already be sick and have symptoms, but has never gone to the hospital for an examination, so she doesn't know she's sick, right?

But since Liu Zhijing gave her a ride today, Chai Mi didn't want to owe anyone anything, so she said what she just said.

Hearing Liu Zhijing ask, she said: "I also heard it from a relative in my family..."

Anyway, in the countryside, within ten li and eight villages, you can basically find a relative; otherwise there wouldn't be the saying 'seven great aunts and eight great aunts'.

So when Liu Zhijing heard Chai Mi say she heard it from a relative, he no longer suspected anything, and planned to go see his mother tomorrow.

"Then thank you."

"Remember, if your mother isn't sick, take her to the hospital for a check-up too." Chai Mi instructed.

Liu Zhijing didn't doubt whether Chai Mi's words were right or wrong; anyway, what Chai Mi said would never be wrong, so he agreed.

After the two parted ways, Chai Mi first conveniently went to the small shop next to the hospital and bought some things.

In this era, it's actually the shops next to hospitals that can sell everything, even more complete than big supermarkets. As for the rural supply and marketing cooperatives, this small shop is a hundred times stronger than them.

Chai Mi bought some children's diapers, bought a set of baby clothes, bought some food and daily necessities, then went to the inpatient department.

Going upstairs, she ran into a young nurse, asked about her mother's condition, learned there was nothing serious, and Chai Mi felt even more at ease.

But as soon as she entered the hospital room door, she saw Chai Zhongxiao and his wife were also there...

Chai Mi looked awkwardly.

Fortunately, Chai Zhongxiao and his wife only came reluctantly to take a look at Su Wan; seeing Chai Mi arrive, they left.

They didn't even say a single sentence.

"Mom, what did they come for? Could it be to give you bewitching medicine so you'll keep helping them work?" Chai Mi watched Chai Zhongxiao and his wife leave, shook her head and said: "However they coax you, you absolutely must not believe them."

Although Chai Mi made a big commotion at the old residence today, after all, neither side has truly reached the point of drawing knives to help each other.

Chai Zhongxiao and his wife also came empty-handed to see Su Wan; after all, Chai Youde's leg is broken and he's undergoing surgery, and the two of them, for the sake of Chai Youqing's face, since they'd come to the hospital anyway, just came to take a look at Su Wan — going back they really wouldn't be able to explain.

At that time, the village would definitely have gossip.

They only came with a hard scalp.

"No... they just said your Third Uncle's leg is broken, it's because you were frightened, they want me to persuade you, don't have such a big temper in the future." Su Wan's complexion was much better, her movements also very convenient.

Although her body was somewhat depleted, she already had no serious issues.
