Cheng Qing still bought a new set of clothes for himself, and bought two sets for Mi Yang and Bai Luochuan. The old man of the Bai family was still in the hospital, so they didn't bother him too much and asked Mi Yang to deliver it.
Old Madam Cheng also watched Bai Luochuan grow up, and felt sorry for him. She personally cooked some soup and asked Mi Yang to deliver it. "It's easy to be dry in winter. Luochuan has been staying with me for several days. Stew some autumn pears with rock sugar for him. Yangyang, please make a few more trips for me."
Mi Yang took it and said, "It's not hard. I was going to go take a look anyway."
Old Mrs. Cheng asked him again: "How is his old man? Is he feeling better?"
Mi Yang said: "It's better now. He is out of danger now and is in the hospital for observation. The doctor said that if his condition stabilizes, he can go home for the New Year."
Old Mrs. Cheng felt a little relieved, and sighed again, "It's not easy to survive when you're old. Please say hello to them for me when you go there later."
Mi Yang agreed and went to the hospital to deliver the things.
Mr. Bai's condition is better than before. Although he is still in the intensive care unit, he is awake more often and is cooperating with the medication. His family members are staying by his side, and even Bai Jingrong has rushed back.
Bai Luochuan and his son did not communicate much. It seemed that they had just had a small conflict over something. Bai Jingrong wanted to talk to him, but Bai Luochuan avoided him several times. When Mi Yang came to deliver sugar water, he got up and left with an excuse.
Bai Jingrong wanted to go over, but Luo Jiangjing next to him pulled him back and said, "They are talking to two juniors, why are you going over there? Wait until Luo Chuan comes back and let him talk to you."
Bai Jingrong frowned slightly and said dissatisfiedly: "You heard it just now, right? He said he wanted to get married right away. Can't I even ask a few more questions?"
Luo Jiangjing was not very happy either: "That's you, you're so happy to see dad wake up, you mention everything. Luo Chuan is so old, can't he find a partner himself? What are you busy introducing here?"
Bai Jingrong said helplessly: "I just want to ask him. Didn't he happen to have dinner with Major General Luo that day? His daughter..."
Bai Luochuan pulled Mi Yang out, and Mi Yang only heard the last few sentences of the conversation.
He looked up at Bai Luochuan and said with a smile, "Major General's daughter?"
Bai Luochuan looked unhappy, "Don't worry about him. Grandpa is so sick, and he still has the mind to mention these things." He looked at Mi Yang again and added, "This is different from our matter. Grandpa has been looking forward to our matter for several years. Now that he is talking about it, he is happy for us. What kind of thing is this? What era is it that still wants to arrange a marriage?"
Mi Yang said: "You went to see Uncle Bai with prejudice. I just heard him mention..."
Bai Luochuan pinched his face and said unhappily: "Whose side are you on, who are you speaking for?"
Mi Yang begged for mercy: "I'm on your side."
Bai Luochuan then let go, found a place to sit down, drank some rock sugar pear juice, and ate a few more bites of pear. He had a poor appetite in the past two days, so eating something light was just right for his stomach. However, he was still worried about the old man, so he didn't eat a few more bites and put the spoon down again.
Mi Yang didn't try to persuade him. He just chatted with him in a low voice and put the clothes down for him.
Bai Luochuan raised his hand and touched it, then glanced at the same one Mi Yang was wearing, showing a smile he had today, and said to him, "Thank Aunt Cheng for me. Grandpa will be discharged from the hospital in two days, and I will go to see her."
Mi Yang placed his hand on the back of his hand, gently shook it, and smiled: "Don't worry, I'll wait for you."
The rings on their fingers bumped against each other slightly, and Bai Luochuan felt as if he was comforted by something. His anxious mood was much more stable. He suddenly wanted to hug the person in front of him. As soon as he raised his hand, Mi Yang pressed the back of his hand with a little force and shook his head slightly, "Forget it, we are outside."
Bai Luochuan frowned, but still hugged him, put his hand on his shoulder with a little force, and said with a little force, "I'm married now, don't care what they say."
Mi Yang was stunned for a moment, chuckled, and raised his hand to respond to him, but they separated again very quickly. This time his tone was much softer, and he comforted him: "Okay, go back quickly, grandpa will definitely look for you when he wakes up."
Bai Luochuan was calmed down by Shunmao, his temper softened a little, and he nodded in agreement.
The Bai family father and son were fine in the morning, but Bai Jingrong went home for lunch. When he came to the hospital in the afternoon, his face changed. He hurried to the ward, and Luo Jiangjing chased him a few steps. He wanted to hold his hand but couldn't. He whispered his name all the way: "Jingrong, Jingrong, we agreed at home. What do you want to do in front of so many people!"
Bai Jingrong didn't listen. After he entered the ward, he looked around and his eyes fell on Bai Luochuan who was serving the old man in front of the bed. Mr. Bai was receiving an IV and had fallen asleep. The ward was very quiet. Bai Luochuan sat by the side and accompanied him without even glancing at the person who came in. He only raised his hand to tuck the corner of the quilt for the old man.
Bai Jingrong looked along Bai Luochuan's hand and saw the ring on his son's hand. He frowned and said, "Come out with me."
Bai Luochuan didn't even raise his eyes: "I'm not going."
Bai Jingrong said angrily: "...What did you say!"
Bai Luochuan turned to look at him, then looked at Luo Jiangjing who looked nervous, and understood most of what was going on. He sneered and said, "I said, I'm not going. I'm staying here to accompany Grandpa. I don't have anything to explain to you."
Bai Jingrong suppressed his rage and took two steps forward, his temples bulging. Bai Luochuan also stood up and looked at his father without fear. He was now slightly taller than Bai Jingrong and was no longer afraid of him in any way.
Bai Luochuan said: "You hit me in front of Grandpa, you are my father, I won't fight back, but I won't accept it."
Bai Jingrong said angrily: "You dare to talk to me like this after doing such a thing!"
Bai Luochuan laughed, his eyes fixed on Old Bai, and said in a hoarse voice: "My mother and grandfather don't care about me, why do you care about me? From childhood to adulthood, you only stayed at home for a few days a year, and now you come to manage my marriage... What were you doing before? To tell you the truth, we have been together for a long time. If Mi Yang was a girl, she would have given me several children."
Bai Jingrong's face turned pale, and he wanted to say something, but Luo Jiangjing grabbed him and scolded him in a low voice: "Jingrong! Do you really want to do it in front of Dad? Aren't you afraid of pissing our dad off to death?"
She pulled her husband's arm with a little force, but Bai Jingrong stood there without moving. Luo Jiangjing lowered his voice and called him again, then forcibly dragged him out.
Bai Luochuan stood by Old Bai's bed, watching over the old man without taking his eyes off him.
