"It's me, Auntie, I'm Yueyue!" Duanpeiyue said from outside.
"But there's an uncle here blocking my way!" Duanpeiyue's voice was obviously filled with dissatisfaction and anger.
"Yueyue, you can't speak to uncle like that. Furthermore, you can't call him uncle. This is Gushushu." A man's pleasant voice entered Muxiangwan's ears.
"Gushushu!" Duanpeiyue called out unwillingly.
"Guchenzhe, why didn't you let them in?" Muxiangwan pulled on Guchenzhe's clothes from behind.
Only then did Guchenzhe push into the sickroom with a cold face.
"Duanxiansheng, you're here!" Muxiangwan directly ignored the cold expression on Guchenzhe's face and enthusiastically greeted him.
"I heard you said that Xiaoqi was sick, and Yueyue kept clamoring to come over to see his big brother Xiaoqi. Coincidentally, I brought her here today when I had the time." Duanshidong looked at him with a smile. Muxiangwan felt warm when he saw this smile.
Duanshidong's face was her favorite face, so she couldn't help but take a few extra glances at it.
Looking at Muxiangwan's infatuated face, Guchenzhe looked like a little fan had seen a big star. Guchenzhe couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Did he think he was dead? When he died? Is he dead?
However, Muxiangwan and Duanshidong didn't seem to have noticed Guchenzhe's extremely stinky expression, and their conversation was extremely "fervent".
Of course, this was only fervent in the eyes of the Guchenzhe.
"Yueyue!" Xiaoqi ran over excitedly.
"This is for you, big brother Xiaoqi!" Duanpeiyue gave his handmade greeting card to Xiaoqi.
"Thank you, Yueyue!" Xiaoqi took Duanpeiyue's card and pulled her aside to play.
"This is for Xiaoqi!" Duanshidong handed over a delicate box to Muxiangwan.
"It's good that you're here, there's no need for you to be so polite!" Muxiangwan said somewhat embarrassedly as he received the thing in Duanshidong's hands.
She and Duanshidong only met by chance and didn't know each other too much. That day, when Duanshidong called her and asked her why she did not see Xiaoqi after school, she did not think too much about it, so she casually told her about Xiaoqi's hospitalization.
Did she say which hospital she was staying in or which ward she could not remember exactly?
She never thought that Duanshidong would actually bring Yueyue here, looks like Yueyue really likes Xiaoqi a lot.
"Xiaoqi, come over here quickly and thank Uncle Duan!" Muxiangwan called out.
Xiaoqi ran over quickly and thanked him. He then took the gift and went to the side to play.
"When he was in the hospital for the past few days, all of you nearly spoiled Xiaoqi. Two days ago, my colleague came and gave him a small car! " Muxiangwan laughed and said.
Duanshidong laughed and said: "I don't know if Xiaoqi will like this gift either, it was chosen by you."
"It's enough to have a greeting card personally made by the Yueyue. That kind of intention is more important than any toy!" When Muxiangwan finished speaking, he realized that Duanshidong was still sitting there, and said hurriedly: "Look at my memory, quickly sit down, don't stand."
Duanshidong looked around the room. There were two single people sitting on sofas against the wall, but Guchenzhe had already made one of them. He did not seem to be welcome to go sit with the other.
Thus, he smiled and said, "You have been sitting here all day, but now, you must stand for a while."
Muxiangwan knew that he had seen Guchenzhe, so he patted Xiaoqi's bed and said, "If Duanxiansheng doesn't mind, then sit here!"
"Alright!" The Duanshidong didn't mind as he walked over and sat down.
"Xiangwan, why do you want Xiaoqi to stay in the double sickroom? Won't it disturb the two of you?" Duanshidong discovered Gufu and Gumu as soon as he entered. However, he did not know the identities of the two and could only nod his head in acknowledgement.1
"If there's anything inconvenient, you can tell me. I can help Xiaoqi arrange a ward."
Duanshidong's words did not have any malicious intent. He only felt that it was inconvenient for a child and an old man to live together in the same ward.
Kids loved to play, old people and Aijing, not to mention the waves of people coming to visit, they would disturb each other.
What's more, the VIP ward was not so hard to find even though the ward was tight. How could they let two people of such a huge difference in grade to live in the same ward!
However, these words became a provocation to the Guchenzhe.
"Is there anything wrong with grandchildren and grandparents living together?" Duanshidong was slightly taken aback when he heard his words.
After a while, he finally regained his senses and looked carefully at Gufu and Gumu. He discovered that Guchenzhe and Xiaoqi's facial features did indeed look somewhat similar to these two people.
It was just that, unlike the Guchenzhe, who looked exactly the same, Duanshidong could tell in an instant. Duanshidong had only taken a glance, so he did not notice it.
At this time, he said somewhat embarrassedly: "I'm sorry Guxiansheng, I didn't know these two were uncle and aunt!"
With that, he stood up and bowed to Gufu and the others as a sign of doubt.
"If you don't know, then shut up!" Guchenzhe was still angry, his tone was extremely rude.
Muxiangwan didn't know what was going on with Guchenzhe, as long as he saw this Duanshidong, he was like an angry hedgehog.
Gumu had sized him up since the moment he entered the room. He found him to be extremely elegant, with a temperament similar to that of a noble's, and felt that this person was not bad.
At this time, when her own son was talking to someone like that, she felt a little embarrassed instead. "Duanxiansheng, don't be like my son, he hasn't been good at talking all this time."
"Guxiansheng is a man of character, I like him a lot!" The Duanshidong smiled elegantly, his expression not changing at all because of his words.
"How did the Duanxiansheng and my son get to know each other?" From the looks of Duanshidong, he seemed to be familiar with both Guchenzhe and Muxiangwan. However, he seemed to be more intimate with Muxiangwan, and the way he looked at him was also different.
Towards Guchenzhe, however, it was somewhat estranged. The Guchenzhe didn't treat him like an ordinary friend, but instead simply had undisguised hostility.
Duanshidong did not hide anything as he said, "Guxian and I were originally neighbors."
"When I was bringing the woman out for a walk, I met the Xiangwan and took the Xiaoqi out for a walk, so we got to know each other."
"I got to know the Guxiansheng later, through the Xiangwan and the Xiaoqi."
"What about the Duantaitai?" Gumu was very puzzled. Why was it that he always brought his woman out for walks? Why didn't his wife come out?
Speaking up to here, Duanshidong's eyes were a little dim, and immediately recovered to normal.
Still smiling, he said, "My wife is dead."
"Ever since she passed away, the Yueyue has been in a bad mood. I put down the work in my hands and stayed with her, but no matter what, she couldn't get happy."
"I know that after Yueyue met Xiaoqi, she really liked him, and her mood gradually improved."
