After receiving the call and rushing over, the private doctor had already treated the wound on Old Mistress Xiang's leg. After the doctor left, Xiang Qicheng frowned and asked Aunt Chen: ”What happened? Why did Grandmother suddenly trip over her feet in the garden? ”
He rushed over as soon as he received Aunt Chen's call. Fortunately, nothing big had happened, it was just that the Old Mistress Xiang's arms and legs were broken, furthermore, he was old, if he fell down like that, he would definitely have a headache. After the doctor disinfected the wound with iodine, he urged Old Mistress Xiang to stay in bed to rest, and the rest would be fine.
”Young Master, I don't know either. When I went into the kitchen to wash some vegetables, I heard a sound coming from the garden. When I ran out, I saw that Old Mistress had fallen into the mud … ”You scared me to death …” Aunt Chen was also scared to the point that he broke out in cold sweat, as he patted his chest in fear.
This Old Mistress Xiang had been unconscious for so long that she finally woke up. If she didn't notice that something had happened, she wouldn't be able to afford it even if she lost her life. Moreover, the old master specifically told her to take care of Old Mistress Xiang when he came to the old house previously.
”Later, I will get someone to mend the muddy ground of the garden. Aunt Chen, you should be more careful in the future.” After Xiang Qicheng finished speaking, he entered the Old Mistress Xiang's room. The faint smell of wormwood came from the room, and the Old Mistress Xiang sat at the head of the bed with a scripture book in his hand and chanted the contents of it.
”Grandmother …” Xiang Qicheng walked to the bedside and called out softly. When he looked down and saw the bruise on Old Mistress Xiang's arm, he frowned again and complained softly, ”Grandmother, what are you doing in the vegetable garden? Just tell Aunt Chen what you want to eat and tell him, it's so troublesome. ”
Moreover, his body, which had recovered with great difficulty, would have to lie on the bed and rest for another half a month after this fall.
Hearing Xiang Qicheng's voice, the Old Mistress Xiang raised his head and instantly smiled widely. He put down the book in his hands and smiled amiably at him: ”I think the eggplants in the garden are done cooking. Isn't Chuchu fond of eating eggplants? I want to take them off first and leave them there. I will be able to eat them when Chuchu returns to the old house... ”Little girl, why haven't you come back to see me in such a long time …”
When he mentioned Chu Yu, Old Mistress Xiang's expression became slightly gloomy. As he spoke, he looked at the lilies outside the window and sighed, then added, ”Jingcheng, don't tell your father about my injuries, lest he worry.”
The Old Mistress also naturally knew how opposed Xiang Han was towards the matter between Chu Yu and himself. Back then, the person who accidentally pushed him down the stairs was Chu Yu, and he heard that if it wasn't for Xiang Qicheng's protection, Chu Yu might even have been sent to jail by Xiang Han.
If he knew the reason behind his injuries, he would probably only dislike Chu Yu even more. Furthermore, it would not be good for her to interfere in the emotional matters of her grandchildren. She was afraid that things would only get worse and worse for her. Forget it, descendants naturally have their own blessings.
”I know, Grandmother. I won't tell Father.” Xiang Qicheng nodded, but he kept thinking back to what Old Mistress had just said.
Yeah, Chu Yu likes to eat eggplant, Australian eggplants are not as delicious as Chinese, I wonder if she's used to it.
Thinking about it, Xiang Qicheng suddenly wanted to give her a call. These few days, she had been working so hard for the international tournament, she didn't even have time to eat, let alone contact him. He had not heard her voice for a few days already, even though the old lady's words made him miss her a lot.
”Jingcheng, when will Chuchu be back? You give me a call and ask, just say... ”Just tell her I'm not feeling well and tell her to come back and see me …” The Old Mistress Xiang sighed, his words seemed to be filled with anger.
Back then, before Chu Yu left the country, he had said that he would often come back to accompany her. However, he had never come back this time, and the last time he had sent a photo back was a month ago.
