Happy Carnival to all my loved ones, can we get another chapter? Nuan will try her best.

Even though she wasn’t Jiang Yuesheng’s chief physician, Qiao Ying, as his relative, ca to his hospital room after she finished her work.
Che Yali was peeling an apple. Seeing her niece co in, she imdiately plastered a smile on her face, “Xiaoying, are you done with work? Co sit down; I’ll peel an apple for you.”
“Auntie, you eat it. I just finished a surgery, and I don’t really feel like eating…” Qiao Ying walked over to the bed, examining Jiang Yuesheng’s complexion, and said with a smile, “Uncle seems to be recovering quite well. Don’t tire yourself out; this illness needs rest.”
Che Yali interjected, “Xiaoying, you didn’t see how your uncle looked yesterday, his face had turned colors, and I was almost scared to death by him.”
Thinking about how Che Yali had brought a bunch of people to find Zhao Yulan yesterday made Qiao Ying furrow her brow, “Auntie, Uncle mustn’t get angry with his condition.”
“I know, I know. I’m doing everything to please him, and I’m even peeling an apple for him, right?” As she spoke, Che Yali extended the peeled apple toward Jiang Yuesheng, “Hmm, I picked out the sweetest one for you.”
“I don’t want to eat it,” Jiang Yuesheng declined.
Che Yali’s expression darkened for a mont, then with a smile, she passed the apple to Qiao Ying, “Xiaoying, since you’re resting now, eat one. It’s really sweet.”
“Okay.” To not embarrass Che Yali further, Qiao Ying accepted it and placed it on the table, “I’ll take it with when I leave later; I really don’t have an appetite right now.”
Che Yali sighed, “Ah, your job is too exhausting, too dirty. In my opinion, with your husband’s family’s great conditions, why not switch to an easier job?”
“Auntie, I love this job. I wouldn’t be comfortable with a different one.” Qiao Ying glanced at the ti, stood up, and said, “Uncle, take good care of yourself. I have to get back to the office; it won’t be good if patients can’t find when they arrive.”
“Go ahead with your work. I’m fine here. When I’m better, you and Ning Jiang bring Miaomiao over to our house for a al. Let your auntie cook sothing delicious for you.”
“Sure, we’ll co over to celebrate Uncle’s discharge,” Qiao Ying replied.
“I’ll walk you out,” Che Yali said, hurrying to follow Qiao Ying. At the door, however, she grabbed Qiao Ying’s hand and wouldn’t let go, “Xiaoying, your auntie needs to talk to you.”
“Auntie, I have to work. Can you not make this difficult for , please?” Qiao Ying knew all too well what she wanted to talk about, and forcibly pulled away her hand, leaving without looking back.
Jiang ixiang, who was carrying a lunchbox, saw from a distance her mother standing at the door of the hospital room, lost in thought. When she approached, her mother was still staring blankly, so she slapped her heavily on the back, “Mom, what are you looking at?”
Che Yali was startled and scolded her daughter while patting her chest, “Can’t you be gentler? You scared to death!”
“I was holding sothing; I didn’t gauge my strength right…” Jiang ixiang said with a smile, raising the lunchbox in her hand, “Grandma and your aunt made a lot of delicious food. Let’s eat.”
“You and Dad can eat. I need to go to your Aunt’s place,” Che Yali said and hurried off, but Jiang ixiang quickly tugged at her, “Mom, where are you going? I have an appointnt with Yang Ping this afternoon to buy a bike.”
“It won’t interfere with your plans.” Seeing her daughter’s hand not relenting, Che Yali had to explain, “Your sister is ignoring , so I have to talk to your aunt. I can’t just let Zhao Yulan’s matter go like this…” She said, lowering her voice, “Don’t let your dad find out. If he asks, you say I went ho to change clothes.”
Jiang ixiang rolled her eyes, “Mom, I’m telling you, that woman obviously looks at least five years older than you. What do you have to worry about?”
Che Yali snorted coldly, “I just can’t swallow this insult.”
After thinking for a mont, Jiang ixiang nodded in agreent, “True, I can’t swallow it either. Why should they think they can hit soone so easily? But, Mom, those relatives they just recognized, they don’t seem like ordinary people; you have to be careful.”
“I know.” Che Yali nodded, “If I hadn’t noticed that, do you think I would have let her off so easily yesterday? I’m not going to confront her directly, I’ll speak to your aunt about it, so she can tell your sister to check into what kind of people those long-lost relatives really are.”
Jiang ixiang frowned, “Mom, if their connections are too powerful for us to confront, what do you plan to do?”
“If we can’t confront them, can your sister?” Che Yali huffed, “I’ve looked into the background of the man Zhao Yulan married. He’s just an honest bumpkin, with ancestors who all fard in Dalin Village. Do you think they could have any impressive relatives?”
