Cheng Nuo knew that his son and younger daughter were surprised, but in front of his eldest daughter, he definitely couldn't explain anything.
After He Xiaomei finished drinking the milk, she handed the empty cup to her mother without saying a word, but her face relaxed and she showed a smile.
Cheng Nuo immediately understood what his eldest daughter meant. He took the empty cup and put it on the coffee table. He looked at his eldest daughter and said, "Xiao Mei, are you tired now? Do you want to go upstairs and take a rest?"
He Xiaomei shook her head and said nothing.
Then, He Xiaomei looked at her younger siblings in front of her. He Xiaomei first stretched out a hand to take her brother's hand, and then stretched out a hand to take her sister's hand.
He Xiaomei looked at her younger brother and spoke, "Li... Chen."
Hearing his sister speak, He Lichen was not happy at all, because there was a big pause between the two words that his sister said, not at all fluent as usual, let alone her usual tone. Instead, the words she spoke were
, as if it was very difficult.
He Xiaomei looked at her sister aside and said, "Xiao, Xiaoxi."
"Well, sister, it's me." He Xiaoxi didn't think much about it, and happily answered hurriedly.
I am already very happy to hear my sister talking.
He Xiaomei also heard what her sister said and smiled happily.
Cheng Nuo was relieved to see Xiaomei talking to Lichen and Xiaoxi. He smiled and said to Xiaomei, "Xiaomei, how about letting Lichen and Xiaoxi play with you for a while? Mom goes to the kitchen to cook.
Cook your favorite dish.”
"Okay..." He Xiaomei also answered her mother now.
Cheng Nuo could see that his eldest daughter was in a good mood. After nodding, he looked at his son and younger daughter and told them, "Li Chen, Xiao Xi, you must take good care of your sister. If your sister doesn't want to talk,
Just don't force her to say it, and don't make any big moves, because your sister's injuries haven't fully healed yet, you know?"
"Yes, I know." He Xiaoxi replied.
"I know it too." He Lichen replied.
After hearing the answers from his son and youngest daughter, Cheng Nuo left with peace of mind.
After that, He Lichen and He Xiaoxi talked with their sister. They were very sensible and knew how to take care of their sister. They tried to talk as much as possible, and they talked about light topics, just to make their sister feel better and make her happier.
When He Xiaomei heard these words from her younger siblings, He Xiaomei's mood was indeed aroused. She would occasionally say a few words, but she said more words than before.
And when I didn't think about the previous things and Long Yixi, my mood improved a lot.
Gradually, He Xiaomei was able to speak a sentence, as if the language was slowly becoming smoother.
"Xiao Xi," He Xiaomei looked at her sister and said, "I never noticed you were so funny before."
"Hey, sister, then you don't pay attention to my changes." He Xiaoxi said to her sister with a smile. Now she will cling to her sister and rely on her very much.
"Then I will pay more attention to your changes in the future." He Xiaomei said.
Although there was no happiness in his tone, his voice was very flat, and no emotion could be heard, at least he spoke one sentence fluently.
"Well, sister, if you pay more attention to me in the future, I will also pay attention to you." He Xiaoxi said.
"Um……"
The three of them were chatting in the living room when suddenly the doorbell rang.
Then the three people were a little surprised and looked at each other, wondering who was standing outside the door?
"Hey, dad's not at home?" He Xiaoxi said in confusion. He guessed that he was saying this because he and Lichen had returned home and hadn't seen his dad yet.
"No, our dad is in the study." He Xiaomei replied. After she and her parents came back from the hospital, her parents stayed with her for a while, and her father went upstairs to the study.
"Then who is coming to our house?" He Xiaoxi said doubtfully, but did not forget to direct He Lichen, "Lichen, go and open the door."
"Why don't you go?"
"Just go if I tell you to go, why ask why?" He Xiaoxi said impatiently.
He Lichen was very dissatisfied with He Xiaoxi's command of him. He wanted to object and didn't want to go, but before he could speak, he heard his sister say.
"Lichen, go ahead." He Xiaomei said to her younger brother, worried that if her younger brother and Xiao Xi were to confront each other, the two would definitely quarrel again.
"Oh." He Lichen responded, and for his sister's sake, he opened the door.
When He Lichen opened the door and saw the people standing outside, He Lichen was stunned.
"Grandpa and grandma, why are you here?" He Lichen asked.
"We came to see your sister, where is your sister?" Bai Wanjing said to her grandson.
"My sister is in the living room, come in quickly." He Lichen answered grandma, hurriedly went over to help grandpa, and together with grandma, he helped grandpa walk into the living room.
While walking, He Lichen asked casually, "Grandpa and grandma, you should have told us when you came. I would have stood at the door to pick you up if I had known."
"Didn't your dad tell you?" Bai Wanjing asked in surprise. She was still angry when she mentioned her son.
"No." He Lichen replied, as if his father never came downstairs.
"I talked to your dad on the phone before. I heard that your sister was just discharged from the hospital today, so I rushed over with your grandpa," Bai Wanjing explained to her grandson, and then said angrily, "Your dad is an unfilial son. My granddaughter is pregnant."
Such a big thing is hidden from us, the old couple, wait and see how I teach you a lesson."
Hearing his grandma's angry words, He Lichen naturally knew that his grandparents would not really teach his dad a lesson, but he was not suitable to talk about the topic at this meeting.
He Lichen had an idea and shouted happily into the living room, "Sister, Xiaoxi, grandparents are here."
After shouting, He Lichen shouted towards the kitchen, "Mom, my grandparents are here."
Such shouting was not only heard by everyone on the first floor, but also He Zikai in the study on the second floor vaguely heard it.
But He Zikai hadn't read the documents in his hand yet, so he could only wait a little longer before going downstairs.
He Xiaomei and He Xiaoxi stood up in a hurry and were about to walk to their grandparents when they saw grandma letting go of their grandfather's arm and walking over quickly.
"grandmother."
"grandmother……"
"Xiaomei, Xiaoxi," Bai Wanjing called excitedly, then walked up to her eldest granddaughter, hurriedly took her hand, and while inspecting her body from top to bottom, asked, "Xiaomei,
Are you okay? Does it still hurt anywhere?"
When He Xiaomei heard her grandma's concern and her constant inspection of her injuries, He Xiaomei smiled slightly and replied, "Grandma, I'm fine. The injuries on my body are all healed and they don't hurt anymore."
After hearing her eldest granddaughter's answer, Bai Wanjing looked at her eldest granddaughter and said distressedly, "My little baby, I have made you suffer." (To be continued)
