Chapter 296 The Fool Who Pleases His Mother-in-Law 5
Zhong Qiu excitedly urged the old couple, looked at the stone in Xiang Lan's hand, exchanged glances with Old Zhong, and nodded.
Xu Tao held the warm stone, a little bewildered, "Aunt Xiang, what are you doing?"
"Son, your father and I are old, so one is enough for the two of us. You can take it, but it may not be enough."
"Aunt Xiang, no need. I have one too. You and Dad can use it."
"Xiao Tao, don't lie to your auntie. Be obedient and take it."
Seeing that no one believed him, Xu Tao simply collected the two stacks of boxes. Facing three pairs of puzzled eyes, he said, "I was stabbed in the head at the Zhao family. The space was created behind the hospital. I don't know why. I guess I bled a lot at that time and I don't know where it dripped.
I also believe what Qiuqiu said about her dream, because I had the same dream, but I only dreamed about myself and the stars, which was almost the same as Qiuqiu's.
After hearing this, everyone became more convinced of the impending doomsday. Mr. Zhong picked up a stone and stabbed his wife's hand.
Before Xiang Lan could react, blood dripped onto the stone. She was a little anxious, "Old Zhong, I want to leave this for Xing..."
Before he could finish his words, he passed out. Zhong's father followed suit and pierced his grandson's hand before anyone could react.
Zhong Yanxing stared blankly at her grandfather holding her little hand, pursed her lips, wanted to cry but held it back, and looked at her mother for help.
Xu Tao walked over and hugged the little guy, gently comforting him, "Xingxing, Grandpa is here for..."
There is no need to say anything more after that because the little guy also fainted.
"Thank you, Dad. What are you going to do?"
Xu Shan waved his hand. He and his wife were often together, so one was enough for the two of them. Xingxing needed it the most. He was still so young, and there was still a lot of time to go.
"Qiuqiu, you were the one who picked up the stone for us. Does it have any characteristics? We can go pick it up again."
"Oh, why didn't I think of that? I don't know what the characteristics are, I just remember that these four are the brightest, and the rest are gray."
Xu Tao immediately booked the nearest flight for the father and daughter, with boarding time in three hours. She transferred 100 yuan to each of them, so that even if they didn't pick up any stones, they could still stock up on some seafood.
When Zhong Qiu saw the incoming payment information on his phone, his eyes widened. He pushed his brother aside and hugged his sister-in-law. "Oh my god, my sister-in-law is actually a rich woman. I was worried about how we would stock up."
"This is the hush money Xia Shuhua gave me."
"What did she do?"
Xu Tao glanced at the man and father-in-law, and seeing that they didn't react, she told them the general situation.
It was getting late after they finished talking, so Zhong Xia drove the two of them to the airport, while Xu Tao stayed at home to take care of the unconscious grandparents and grandchildren.
'Tick-tick-tick-tick'
When you see the caller ID, just ignore it.
Wait, she seemed to realize that she hadn't called her grandma yet. She wanted to call Xingxing in but forgot about it.
I glanced at the time and estimated that grandma should not be asleep yet. The phone rang for a while before it was answered.
"Hey?"
"Grandma, it's me."
"Oh, it's Xiaotao. How are you doing recently? Are you feeling well? Have you eaten?"
"I ate grandma, I'm in good health. How about you? Have you been eating well recently? Are you being disobedient again? The doctor said you can't do heavy work. You..."
Xu Tao chattered for a while before getting to the point. "Grandma, Xingxing and I miss you so much. Would you mind staying with us for a while?"
"Xiao Tao, grandma won't go. Your cousin just had a son, and I can't leave. If you have time, come home and stay for two days during the New Year."
Xu Tao gave some instructions and hung up the phone. Although she had prepared herself mentally, she still couldn't help feeling disappointed.
Are boys really that important in their eyes? Sometimes she doesn't want to compare, but she can clearly feel it after every phone call.
Forget it, she would take some time to go back and see her grandma in the next two days. It would be difficult to have the chance to meet again in the future, so she had to go back at least once.
"Mother."
"Hey, Xingxing, tell mom if you feel uncomfortable?"
Zhong Yanxing shook her head and nodded, pointing to her head, "Mom, there's a really big place inside."
As he spoke, he drew a big circle with his two little hands.
"Hmm...Xingxing, tell me, is it as big as our living room, or as big as the bathroom, or as big as the soccer field where Xingxing often plays soccer?"
Little Zhong Yanxing shook his head, frowned, and clapped his hands, "Mom, it's as big as the kindergarten on the star."
Xu Tao raised her eyebrows. Her son was lucky. You know, the private kindergarten she chose specifically for her son's education covered a large area, probably the size of about ten basketball courts.
"Xingxing, try to put this little toy away."
Xu Tao gestured with her fingers and demonstrated personally, progressing from small to large, and only stopped teaching after making sure that the baby could control it freely.
After finishing, he stared at the little guy with a serious face, "Xingxing, the fact that we can put things away is our family secret. Apart from grandpa and grandma, dad and mom, and aunt, you can't tell anyone else. Can you promise mom?"
Zhong Yanxing patted his chest and promised, stretching out his little finger and making a pinky promise with his mother. He was a little man and would definitely do what he promised his mothers.
Xu Tao was still relatively relieved. The little guy almost always did what he promised her. She turned her gaze to the still unconscious Aunt Xiang, feeling a little worried. She felt her pulse and found it was normal. She could only wait and see.
"Mom, I'm hungry."
Xu Tao finally realized that she hadn't had dinner yet. She took out a hot meal from her space and gave it to the little one. She stayed by Aunt Xiang's side, checking her pulse from time to time.
After sending his father and sister off, Zhong Xia stopped at a night market. Taobao loved snacks, so he had to prepare some for her.
"Hmm~"
When Xu Tao saw that the person had woken up, he hurriedly handed him a cup of spiritual spring water.
After drinking it, Xiang Lan felt relaxed all over, and the splitting headache disappeared. She smacked her lips, it was so sweet.
"Aunt Xiang, are you okay?"
"Don't worry, Xiaotao, I'm fine. I have my own space, which is probably about the same size as the room you rented."
The house she currently rents is over 60 square meters, with two bedrooms and a living room. It is neither big nor small. Xiang Lan is very content with it. As long as she has it, she is happy. She is now a little worried about how to raise money.
'Tick-tick-tick-tick'
"Why are you always on the phone? Others are sleeping too, and you're disturbing their sleep in the middle of the night."
Seeing that someone finally answered the phone, Xia Shuhua suppressed her anger and said, "You have received the money, right? From now on, we will keep our distance from each other. If you threaten me again, I don't mind fighting to the death."
"Haha, the fish may die, but the net will never break. You haven't sent me the video of the beating yet. It's okay if you don't send it. I can accept the amount you transfer today. Also, you have to double it for me. You have until the day after tomorrow to do so."
