Chapter 222 Madam Song's Entanglement
The hospital examinations were just these, following the standard procedures. The results were fine, and we left the hospital in about two hours.
After being discharged from the hospital, I wanted to go straight back to the restaurant, and Song Yafei had no objection. However, on the way, we received a call from the nursing home saying that something had happened to Grandpa Song.
Grandpa Song is one of the kindest people in the Song family to me. Even though I don't really want to ride in the same car as Song Yafei, I still want to visit him.
We had just arrived at the sanatorium and were getting out of the car when we unexpectedly ran into Mrs. Song.
She was dressed very elegantly and meticulously, and did not look like someone who had come to see a doctor.
Song Yafei and I both paused in front of the door for a moment. Song Yafei ignored us with a cold face and said, "Let's go."
She genuinely cares about sending her grandfather away, but she's truly speechless about Madam Song.
When Song Yafei and I arrived at Grandpa Song's room, he was lying on the bed, his face was sallow, his brows were furrowed, and he looked weak and listless, clearly not feeling well.
Beside him was Brother Liu, the caregiver who had been taking care of Grandpa Song.
When Brother Liu saw us, he whispered to Grandpa Song, "Grandpa, your granddaughter and grandson-in-law are here."
After saying that, Brother Liu stood to the side to make room for us.
Grandpa Song had been resting with his eyes closed, but when he heard us arrive, he opened them slightly, though his eyes looked weak.
I was startled; Grandpa Song didn't seem as healthy as before.
Song Yafei and I stood on opposite sides, and Grandpa Song looked up at me.
But I saw that his eyes were glazed over and he seemed to be out of it. The next second, he suddenly grabbed my hand.
"You little rascal, it's been a while since you've come to see your dad!"
dad?
I looked at Song Yafei in surprise. Grandpa Song was mistaking me for Song Yafei's father.
Song Yafei's father has always been the deepest scar in her heart. Every time someone mentions him, it's like tearing open the wound that had finally healed back then.
Therefore, people who know her almost never mention this person in front of her.
Sure enough, Song Yafei's expression changed quickly, and her eyes darkened.
I'm still worried about Grandpa Song. It's rare for him to suddenly become confused like this, which can only mean that his health is deteriorating.
Song Yafei quickly realized this and, forgetting what she had just said, grabbed her grandfather's hand with concern.
“Grandpa, I am Yafei. Look carefully, he is my husband, your grandson-in-law.”
It was Song Yafei's call that brought Grandpa Song back to his senses, and his eyes gradually cleared, but the disappointment in his eyes was hard to hide.
In fact, we all know that even if Song Yafei hates her father, he is still Song Grandpa's only child.
After losing his wife and son, Grandpa Song suffered the most heartbreaking loss, a white-haired person burying a black-haired one.
That's why Grandpa Song's health is so poor now; otherwise, given his previous mental state, he would never have become so confused.
Grandpa Song still misses his son, but what can he do besides grieve?
Grandpa Song released my hand and patted the back of my hand. "It's Xiaotian. My old eyes are failing me."
He turned to Song Yafei and said with a smile, "Yafei, you're here too!"
Just then, the caregiver, Brother Liu, brought over the medicine again. "Grandpa, you can't skip your medicine this time, or your granddaughter and grandson-in-law will laugh at you."
Song Yafei and I helped the old man up and put a pillow behind his back for support.
"I'll do it."
I took the medicine from Brother Liu, sat on the edge of the bed, blew on it to cool it down, and then fed it to Grandpa Song with a spoon.
Following my gaze, Song Yafei saw Mrs. Song leaning against the door.
I just saw Madam Song standing at the door, but she didn't seem to want to come in. I wonder why.
After understanding what I meant, Song Yafei took advantage of Grandpa Song's inattention and went out to take Madam Song away.
I fed Grandpa Song his medicine while chatting with him.
After taking his medicine, Grandpa Song felt sleepy again, so I waited until he closed his eyes before leaving the room.
Upon exiting, I saw Mrs. Song and Song Yafei sitting in the lobby downstairs, by the window.
I wasn't interested in what they talked about, but the atmosphere between them suddenly became tense, and Mrs. Song even raised her voice.
Even though I didn't want to hear it, it still reached my ears.
“Song Yafei, I know you’re all grown up now and have your own ideas. Even if you don’t want to, you still have to listen to me.”
“He owns shares in the Song family business, and he has to transfer them to your name no matter what.”
My steps to leave also stopped because of her words.
he?
Does this refer to Grandpa Song?
As far as I know, there are quite a few people who own shares in the Song family, but there are not many who can get Mrs. Song to go to great lengths to transfer them to Song Yafei's name.
I originally thought that Mrs. Song and Grandpa Song's relationship was just bad, but I never expected that it had gone so far as to scheme against his shares.
I received the news today that my grandfather's health is not good, so I need to make plans in advance.
They always blame the old folks, but now that they need money, they're all eager to help.
I couldn't help but feel angry for Grandpa Song. Just like Song Yafei in front of me, she frowned after being offended by Madam Song's words, clearly looking unhappy.
I didn't want to listen to their argument anymore, so I walked away.
I was walking around in the courtyard downstairs when I was surprised when Mrs. Song suddenly approached me. Following behind her was Song Yafei.
Before Madam Song could speak, Song Yafei cut her off with her own words.
"You've said everything, so hurry up and leave. Don't cause trouble here."
I had no idea what they were up to, but Madam Song's gaze remained fixed on me, as if she had come specifically to find me.
Song Yafei looked somewhat nervous, even quite resistant, as if she didn't want Mrs. Song to get close to me.
Madam Song was also angered by Song Yafei's words, and her face turned red.
"Song Yafei, have you lost all your manners? You really are influenced by your surroundings! Do you think I would eat a grown man like that?"
These words were directed at me.
I don't know what her purpose is in contacting me, but whatever her problem is, it doesn't matter. I don't even care about Song Yafei anymore, let alone her.
Song Yafei didn't think that way. She came in front of me, shielded me behind her, and acted like a mother hen protecting her chicks.
"He's not feeling well and can't talk to you. I already know what you want to say. We can talk about anything else later."
The mother and daughter knew each other very well. Seeing that they couldn't reason with Song Yafei, they turned their attention to me.
"Zhang Tian, it's up to you whether you come here by yourself today or I come to you in person next time."
The implication is that a talk is necessary.
Not wanting to put Song Yafei in a difficult position, nor wanting to see them argue, and even less wanting Mrs. Song to get entangled with me, I agreed to talk to her.
