Chapter 212 She is a rough gem
Hearing Song Qiao say this, Tao Meiling hugged Tong Yao: "My baby, how can you be so sensible? Okay! Grandma promises you, after you see Grandpa, you will go back and take care of them."
Touching Tong Yao's head, Tao Meiling said with affection, "But you also promised Grandma that when we miss you, we'll bring you to live with me. You and your mother should agree on that."
Tong Yao looked up at Tao Meiling and nodded: "Grandma, I promise you."
Lu Mingxuan had just finished the discharge procedures and even called his grandfather to find out that he had arrived home before returning to the ward.
"Auntie, we're going home."
Because Lu Mingxuan was injured, Song Qiao wouldn't let him carry Tao Meiling. The two of them helped her slowly to the wheelchair and sat down. She looked relieved and said, "Finally, I can go home."
Tong Yao and Xiao Cui carried their things out of the room together.
Tao Meiling looked at Tong Yao, who was so sensible at such a young age, and then at Song Qiao, and said, "This child is much more sensible than Ranran!"
"It's more than just a lot, it's incomparable, Mom! It's all thanks to Sister Cuihua's excellent teaching. Actually, Yaoyao has turned misfortune into blessing. Having Sister Cuihua and Brother Tong as adoptive parents is a blessing for her. On the contrary, if Yaoyao had stayed with me, she might not be so sensible."
Tao Meiling nodded in agreement: "That's true, Ranran is spoiled by Jiang Ming and Zhang Dalan."
"And Zhao Xiaoya too!"
Song Qiao now realizes that Jiang Xiaoran has been spoiled by them since childhood, while she herself has always been the one to try to discipline her, with either Zhang Dalan stopping her or Jiang Ming getting angry.
Jade must be carved to become a useful object. Nursery rhymes are like that piece of jade being carved. From childhood, we can see how filial and sensible she is.
Song Qiao pushed Tao Meiling, and the two chatted as they walked.
Afterwards, Lu Mingxuan looked at the things Tong Yao was carrying and said, "Yao Yao, Daddy will carry them. You and Mommy go take care of Grandma."
Upon hearing this, Tong Yao handed what she was holding to Lu Mingxuan and ran forward to support the wheelchair.
Xiao Cui watched from behind, then looked up at Lu Mingxuan and said, "Dr. Lu, how come this child is so sensible?"
"Yes, she grew up in a poor family. There's a saying: 'Children of poor families mature early,' so Yao Yao is more sensible than other children."
Song Qiao pushed Tao Meiling, while Tong Yao held onto the wheelchair's armrests. This happy family of three generations made Lu Mingxuan very gratified.
At that moment, he felt a sense of reflection: What is happiness? Happiness is being together as a family, being happy together.
Once inside the elevator, Lu Mingxuan looked at Song Qiao and said, "When we get out of the elevator, you and Auntie wait in the elevator lobby. I'll go get the car. I'll drive it to the elevator door; it's getting windy outside."
With the winter solstice approaching, Lu Mingxuan decided that after sending Tao Meiling home, he would take Song Qiao and Tong Yao to the store to buy winter clothes.
When the elevator reached the first floor and the doors opened, Song Qiao reminded Lu Mingxuan, "Okay! Be careful too, you still have an injury on your back."
"understood!"
Lu Mingxuan picked up his things and started to walk out, but Song Qiao called out to him, "Just leave the things here, and put them back when you drive over."
Lu Mingxuan looked down at the things in his hands: "They're not heavy, I'll carry them over."
He was carrying a duffel bag containing Tao Meiling's clothes and toiletries.
Watching Lu Mingxuan walk away, Tao Meiling looked up at Song Qiao and asked, "When are you two getting married?"
"Mingxuan said he would consider marriage once I got my divorce certificate."
When will we receive the divorce certificate?
Tao Meiling couldn't wait any longer; she hoped her daughter would leave that scumbag Jiang Ming as soon as possible and marry Lu Mingxuan.
"I'll go to the Civil Affairs Bureau tomorrow!"
Tao Meiling glanced at Tong Yao and said sadly, "You're finally free from this misery, and my granddaughter is back too. It's wonderful."
Xiao Cui, standing to the side, was also happy for Song Qiao: "Miss, is your ex-husband blind? He doesn't cherish someone as good as you and instead finds a scheming woman."
Song Qiao gave Xiao Cui a wink, meaning that the nursery rhyme was still nearby, and Xiao Cui was taken aback.
Seeing Lu Mingxuan drive the car to the elevator door, Song Qiao quickly pushed Tao Meiling out.
"Let me take it!" Lu Mingxuan took Tao Meiling's wheelchair.
Adong Hotel.
Zhao Xiaoya returned to her seat and saw that the waiter had already brought the dishes, and Jiang Xiaoran was eating.
"Mom, eat quickly, I'm hungry!"
Zhao Xiaoya looked at Jiang Xiaoran and said, "Eat if you're hungry."
"Mom, I want a drink."
Jiang Xiaoran had just asked for it, but the waiter only agreed but didn't bring it over. She knew that the adults wouldn't agree and the hotel wouldn't give it to her, so she had to discuss it with Zhao Xiaoya.
"You can't drink beverages anymore. Look how fat you've become! The doctor said you've gotten sick from drinking beverages and you can't drink them anymore."
At this point, Jiang Xiaoran was addicted to the beverage, and when she heard Zhao Xiaoya say that she couldn't drink it, she immediately protested.
"I want to drink it. If you don't let me, I'll call my dad."
Jiang Xiaoran has a smartwatch, and Zhao Xiaoya isn't sure if she knows Jiang Ming's number.
Fearing that Jiang Xiaoran would ruin her important plans, she could only console herself: let her drink one more time.
Then, he looked up at the waiter not far away and said, "Give me a bottle of Sprite."
"coming!"
The waiter agreed and brought Jiang Xiaoran a bottle of Sprite.
"I want to drink Coca-Cola too!"
Jiang Xiaoran knew that with Sprite, Coca-Cola would be easier to get.
Sure enough, Zhao Xiaoya hardened her heart and said, "Another bottle of Coca-Cola, please."
After a bottle of Sprite and a bottle of Coca-Cola were placed on the table, Jiang Xiaoran wolfed down her food and drinks. Zhao Xiaoya frowned as she watched her eat: "Eat slowly. No wonder you're so fat. It's all because of your eating habits."
Hearing Zhao Xiaoya also say she was fat, Jiang Xiaoran was about to make a scene when a man walked over from a distance: "Miss Zhao, hello, I'm Zhang Lin!"
"You must be Zhang Lin. Please have a seat!"
Zhao Xiaoya stood up and moved to the side, and Zhang Lin sat down next to her.
"Ms. Zhao, are you out dining alone with your child? Where is her father?"
With tears in her eyes and a pitiful look on her face, Zhao Xiaoya said, "Her father left us, and we are now a widow and an orphan. If it weren't for the child, I wouldn't want to sell this house!"
Seeing Zhao Xiaoya's distressed expression, Zhang Lin said with sympathy, "So that's how it is? Well then, I won't take advantage of you. I'll give you an extra 100,000 for the house, making it 600,000!"
Hearing this, Zhao Xiaoya's eyes lit up with tears, and she looked at Zhang Lin happily, saying, "Brother Zhang, you are such a good person!"
Zhang Lin looked up at Jiang Xiaoran, who was sitting opposite him eating and drinking heartily, and whispered, "Is your sister taking care of the child alone now?"
Jiang Xiaoran was taken aback: "Brother Zhang, what do you mean? Are you single too?"
Zhang Lin smiled and said, "What a coincidence! I just got divorced too; my wife cheated on me."
