Although it was chaotic just now, Lin Chuxia also knew that the person riding a bicycle was Feng Dajun’s daughter, Feng Jingjing, and Sister-in-law Feng was following behind her.
She even saw that mother-daughter duo earlier, wobbling while Feng Jingjing was riding the bicycle in the alley, with Sister-in-law Feng helping her from behind. It was clear they were practicing riding the bicycle.
At that time, she was on the main road, while Sister-in-law Feng and Feng Jingjing were in the less crowded alley, and somehow they rushed out.
The road is so wide; she was walking in front, even if Feng Jingjing came toward her, Sister-in-law Feng had enough time to grab the bike, or she could have alerted her beforehand. In any case, the bike reached her before any other sister-in-law told her.
If there were no other people on the road at that time, would Sister-in-law Feng just watch as Feng Jingjing crashed into her?
Lin Chuxia didn’t want to think badly of people, but since it’s Sister-in-law Feng, she couldn’t help but overthink.
What can a woman with psychological problems not do?
She didn’t respond, nor did she go out to greet them.
Feng Dajun probably thought there was no one in the house, but he didn’t leave, just wandered at the door.
Very soon, Qin Yang came back.
Lin Chuxia saw the two talking at the door, and Qin Yang’s face clearly showed urgency and impatience. He nodded from time to time and would occasionally look towards the room with a frown.
Finally, he said something else to Feng Dajun, and then he left.
After Feng Dajun left, Qin Yang hurriedly returned to the room.
"Xiaxia, are you okay? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?"
Lin Chuxia held his outreached big hand and gave him a slight smile, "I’m really fine, don’t worry. I care about this baby even more than you do. If anything feels wrong, I’ll definitely go to the hospital."
Qin Yang squeezed her hand firmly, speaking with dissatisfaction, "I care about the baby, but I care more about you. Xiaxia, my concern for the baby stems from the fact that it’s our child."
He was very expectant about this baby, but if it jeopardized Lin Chuxia’s health and safety, he would certainly put Lin Chuxia first.
Just like before when Lin Chuxia wanted a child but had such a huge mental burden, he had told her, even if they didn’t have children between them, as long as she stayed by his side, it would be enough for a lifetime.
Lin Chuxia nodded with a smile, "I know. By the way, how is Sister-in-law Gong doing? Did she go to the hospital for a check-up?"
Qin Yang sat beside Lin Chuxia and pulled her into his arms, "Sister-in-law Gong is so temperamental, even Minister Wei couldn’t do anything. She said she was fine and refused to go to the hospital no matter what. It looks like she definitely didn’t hurt her bones."
"Fortunately, Sister-in-law Gong was there today. If she hadn’t cushioned my fall, sitting firmly on the ground, the consequences would have been unimaginable."
Thinking about the scene, Lin Chuxia still felt some lingering fear.
Qin Yang prioritizes her health, yet this baby is the one she’s waited for two lifetimes, their child, and she’s already deemed it more important than herself.
"I saw Feng Dajun come over. What did he say to you?"
"He asked about your condition, apologized on behalf of that mother-daughter duo, saying the child acted unintentionally. I didn’t really want to hear him ramble on about it, so I casually responded. Now he’s probably gone to Minister Wei’s house."
Qin Yang spoke lightly, but he made a deep mental note about Feng Dajun.
The unintentional actions of children can be forgiven, but there was an adult beside them.
Anyway, he has remembered what that mother-daughter duo did against Feng Dajun.
Even though Lin Chuxia repeatedly said she was fine, Qin Yang was still not at ease.
After breakfast, Old Master He would usually wander around, and Qin Jianjun would go to work at Huamei Mall.
When Qin Yang and Lin Chuxia arrived at Old Master He’s courtyard, no one was home, but Lin Chuxia had the key, so she directly opened the courtyard gate and went inside to wait for her mentor.
Old Master He’s room wasn’t anything new, except the few pots of flowers were meticulously cared for, and one pot had already bloomed with little yellow flowers.
Lin Chuxia didn’t read many medical books, but she knew these flowers were actually herbs.
Not long afterward, Old Master He returned.
Wearing the black cotton coat Lin Chuxia bought him, warm woolen boots on his feet, a blue cotton hat on his head with ear flaps down, covering half his face.
Old Master He saw the Jeep at the door and knew Lin Chuxia and the others had arrived.
Although he hadn’t entered the house, his voice came through.
"I’m doing quite well here, no need for you to worry. If there’s anything, I’ll contact you. Your own nephew is here, aren’t you at ease? In this freezing weather, don’t come here without a reason. I know you have this filial piety."
"Master, I really disappointed you. I’m not as kind-hearted as you think."
A sentence that directly stupefied Old Master He, glaring at her displeased.
He knew accepting this disciple was just inviting trouble, not as obedient and sensible as her nephew, even high praises couldn’t cover it.
He took off the cotton hat on his head and tossed it on the kang bed, "Speak up, why are you running to me?"
Afraid Lin Chuxia might say something to upset the old man enough to drive the two of them away, Qin Yang hurriedly explained their reason for coming.
