Chapter 283 Living in the Room Opposite
When Mr. Xing regained consciousness, he was awakened by the voice of his family doctor.
"Madam, don't worry. Fortunately, the second young master invited the best doctor some time ago to give the old man special care. The old man's heart, blood pressure and everything else are all good now. He will wake up soon."
The old man slowly opened his eyes and saw people surrounding the bed, including the doctor, his wife, his son and daughter-in-law, driver Chen, and Su He.
His wife, who was sitting closest to him, noticed his action at a glance.
"Alright, alright! The old man finally woke up, are you okay?"
"Dad, you're finally awake. You scared us!" Xing Qizhang heaved a sigh of relief when he saw this.
"Dad, where else are you feeling uncomfortable? Let the doctor take another look at you?" Xie Qiong also spoke up.
Where do you feel uncomfortable? When Mr. Xing heard this, he thought of Jiang Qianxun's matter. The relief he had just felt from being cared for by everyone disappeared instantly. He supported himself and sat up, snorting coldly.
"Now you know to care about me. When you hid the matter from that woman surnamed Jiang, why didn't you think that you would piss me off to death!"
Okay, the first thing I talk about is family matters.
Everyone present was perceptive. They only needed to look at each other to understand what they should do. Qinghe took driver Chen and the doctor out. In the huge room, only the old man and his wife and Xing Qizhang and his wife were present.
When Xing Qizhang and his wife saw that all the outsiders had left, the old man started cursing. Then, thinking about Jiang Qianxun's matter, they didn't dare to say anything more and took a step back silently.
In fact, they didn't need to say much. With their mother present, they only needed to take care of their father's health.
So, the old lady became the only "main force" and was stared at by the couple as if asking for help.
Feeling the gazes of her son and daughter-in-law, the old lady sitting by the bed remained calm.
She married into the Xing family at the age of twenty and lived to such an old age, she had seen all kinds of storms. Now, the problem they were most worried about was solved - the old man was not angry to death!
As long as you don’t get angry the first time, there won’t be any problem later. What are you afraid of!
The old lady was extremely calm. Seeing that everyone was staring at her, she held her cane for a while before responding to the old man's words.
"We hid it from you at first because it was for your own good. You know your physical condition and you can't stand any stimulation. If you die, wouldn't I have to experience the feeling of being a widow at my old age? That would be so boring."
Old man: "..."
"Besides, you only want to bring the second young lady of the Huang family together with Ming Yu, and you won't listen to anyone's advice. If you knew that we were against you, wouldn't you be furious? We can only hide it from you. To be honest, this is all your fault!"
"You lied to me, and you still have the nerve to blame me?"
"Shouldn't you be blamed? Mingyu has told you many times that he doesn't accept the childhood marriage proposal. But you have nothing to do and you just want to take advantage of his marriage. You are just looking for trouble and making yourself unhappy!"
"Feng Shuyi! How did the marriage between the Xing and Huang families come about? You were there at the time, and you say I'm looking for trouble? Taking advantage of him? Am I old or are you confused? Do you still have the word trust in your eyes?" The old man called him by his name and was obviously angry.
"Yes! You promised this before Old Huang died, but promises are promises, and you also have to consider the wishes of the children! Are you going to force the two children to be together if they don't have a crush on each other? That's the most important event for the children! I don't believe that Old Huang's spirit in heaven would be willing to see the two children become a couple!"
The old man sneered: "When Brother Mingyu and Xianyue were together, you didn't say that!"
"I did say at the time that the Xing and Huang families had a good marriage, but can they be the same as Ming Yu? They got together as soon as they became adults and have a foundation of love. Look at how many times your grandson has looked at Huang Xiaoxiao?"
"That's because Mingyu doesn't know how good Xiaoxiao is. As long as she marries him and they spend more time together, why would they worry about not having feelings for each other?"
"Yes, yes, yes! What you said makes sense!" The old lady said perfunctorily, and asked him back: "But now, Mingyu only likes Qianxun, and they have a child. What do you think we should do?"
The old man was speechless for a moment.
Seeing her mother-in-law's "great achievements", Xie Qiong quickly filled a cup of still warm Kung Fu tea for her to moisten her throat, otherwise she would not have the energy to "fight" with the old man later.
The old lady took the teacup and took a sip calmly.
While drinking tea, she looked up at her husband and saw that he was holding his fists and not saying anything, but his face looked better than before. Only then did she feel completely relieved, handed the teacup to her daughter-in-law, and continued.
"Ming Yu likes it, so we can only go along with him. Besides, Qianxun is a good kid. Not to mention her looks, she is also capable, both in the company and in Huawen. She is also qualified to marry into the Xing family."
"Hmph! If she's so good, why did you hide it from me? You should have brought her to me a few months ago, pointed out her advantages, and convinced me to let her marry you!" The old man said sarcastically.
The old lady was no less enthusiastic: "It is precisely because Chihiro is so good that I cannot let you know so soon. What is your style of doing things? Others may not know, but I know it. If I had let you know earlier that Chihiro was pregnant and took away your position as the second young lady of the Xing family, I am afraid you would have forced Chihiro to have an abortion long ago!"
The old man's sharp eyes were full of calmness and coldness: "This child is from an unknown source, and she is not conceived by a formal marriage. She should be aborted! It doesn't matter if she can't abort it. Even if she gives birth to it, I won't acknowledge her!"
The old lady frowned when she heard this, and replied sternly: "It doesn't matter whether you recognize it or not. The child born by Qianxun is Mingyu's own flesh and blood, both legally and morally!"
"You! You actually support that woman like this! Do you still have me in your eyes? Or do you think that you have more people and can work together with Ming Yu to look down on everyone? Aren't you afraid that the more you protect her, the more I can't tolerate her!"
When he said this, there was an obvious threat in the old man's eyes, and his cloudy old eyes became sharp. One can imagine how domineering the old man was when he was young.
When the old lady saw the old man's look, a trace of panic finally appeared on her calm expression. She clenched the cane in her hand, and a hint of anger appeared on her kind old face.
"Xing Yongguo! What do you mean? Do you still want to attack Qianxun?"
"You hid it from me, and I dealt with her, it was just a give and take, what? Can't you afford to play?"
"Just for a promise? Are you crazy?" The old lady was so angry that she stood up with the help of crutches and looked down at her husband.
Old Master Xing said calmly, "I'm not crazy, I'm thinking about the family. Ming Yu is tough, responsible, scheming, principled, and decisive. He is the heir I am most satisfied with. No son you give birth to can compare to him!
But there was a woman who, relying on the fact that she was pregnant with the Xing family's child, played with my grandson at will, patting him on the back and making him appear in the news, making the affair of my grandson known to everyone and becoming a topic of conversation after dinner!
This kind of woman with unknown origins and a petty air all over her body is not even qualified to enter the Xing family! Only Xiaoxiao is qualified to match Mingyu!
They are still engaged, they are a perfect match made in heaven! The future mistress of my Xing family can only be her! If Jiang Qianxun wants to block my way, don't blame me for being rude!"
The old lady retorted: "What do you mean by playing with your grandson? Mingyu is nice to Qianxun, it's his own will!
As for your grandson's matter, it's all because of you. You're stubborn and your grandson is afraid that you'll be mad to death, so he's telling you in a roundabout way that you have a future granddaughter-in-law and great-grandchildren! Do you really not know or are you pretending not to know?"
The old man retorted: "Oh. So my grandson played me around so hard that he wouldn't make me angry to death in the future. I really want to thank him!"
"Of course you should thank your grandson. After all, he doesn't need your consent to marry anyone he wants, legally. He's just doing this out of respect for you! He has you in his eyes, so you should thank him."
The old man looked very unhappy when he heard this.
"Besides! You said Chihiro is petty, but my Chihiro is pregnant with our Xing family's child, but I haven't seen her making a fuss about it. But your Huang Xiaoxiao's mother was making a fuss about the engagement between the Xing and Huang families this morning, and the whole world knows about it. Do we need to explain what her mother is thinking? Who is petty!"
"That's the truth! Why can't we talk about it?" The old man retorted: "You are looking at people through tinted glasses! My Xiaoxiao is a good person!"
"She's good? It's also true that Qianxun and Mingyu have feelings for each other and have a child. Why doesn't she try to avoid suspicion? Isn't this Sima Zhao's intention? Is she treating everyone in the world as fools?"
"you!"
"Besides, her origin is unknown! Isn't it Huang Xiaoxiao, whom you value, who is the one with an unknown origin? She is just an adopted daughter of the Huang family, and her biological mother even stabbed someone with a knife! Who knows what her direct lineage within three generations does! My Qianxun is the authentic eldest daughter of the Jiang family!
As for the marriage contract, Xing Yongguo, before Old Huang died, you promised that your grandson would marry Old Huang's granddaughter. Huang Xiaoxiao is not of the Huang family's bloodline, she is just an adopted daughter. To be honest, she, Huang Xiaoxiao, is not qualified!"
The old man sneered: "No matter how unqualified Xiaoxiao is, she was once a member of the Huang family, but that woman surnamed Jiang is even less qualified. She is not even the daughter of the Huang family!"
The old lady was so angry that she laughed. Seeing that the old man was in good health enough to talk back to her, she was too lazy to suppress him and continued to speak for Jiang Qianxun.
"Okay, since neither of them is qualified, then we should follow Old Huang's dying request. Huang Xiaoxiao and Qianxun should not get involved with Mingyu. Mingyu belongs to the real second young lady of the Huang family. Unless the second young lady of the Huang family can be resurrected, he should be single for the rest of his life.
Anyway, Qianxun is pregnant with Mingyu's child, and Mingyu likes her, so just live like this. As long as the two of them truly love each other, a marriage certificate is not a big deal. But as for Miss Huang, who you like, I want to see how long she, the eldest daughter of the Huang family, can hold on!"
"How dare you ruin Xiaoxiao's life!" The old man's face turned dark.
The old lady directly returned his words to him: "Didn't you also say that you don't recognize the child born by Chihiro, and you want to deal with Chihiro? It's just a back and forth between us, what's the matter? Can't you afford to play?"
"Feng! Forgive! Me!"
The old man was so angry that he pounded the bed.
Seeing this, Xie Qiong and Xing Yongzhang who were standing by didn't care to watch the show anymore and hurried over to try to stop the fight.
"Mom! Don't be too anxious. Let's just explain it to Dad. Your health isn't very good either. Don't get angry with yourself." Xie Qiong went over and patted the old lady's back, soothing her softly.
Xing Qizhang went over to coax the old man: "Dad, your illness has only improved recently, don't take your body for granted. If you have anything to say, you can talk to mom."
Qing He and driver Chen, who were waiting outside, heard the noise and opened the door and rushed over.
Qing He helped Xie Qiong to help the old lady away from the bedside to avoid a physical conflict between the two angry people.
Driver Chen went over and patted the old man's chest and helped to persuade him.
"Old man! If you really want to worry about the Second Young Master, you have to take care of your body so that you can take care of him mentally, right? You just woke up, so you should rest for a while. We can talk about the Second Young Master's affairs later!"
The old man was so angry that he didn't care about the advice of people around him. He felt even more upset when he saw his wife, who had been with him all his life, was so angry that she sat opposite him and didn't look at him.
Very unhappy!
He and his wife have had a rough but wonderful life. In other people's words, it is also a legend. After decades of companionship, they have never had such an unhappy life as today.
