Chapter 84: Uncle Yang Says Yes
"Uncle Yang, does it mean that Xiao Mi's illness is likely to be cured?" Xi Lie's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he happily took Shen Mi's hand.
"If there is no rejection after half a year, it will be fine." Yang Cheng smiled, "It's entirely possible to recover." β
Shen Mi blinked, happily speechless.
"Thank you, Uncle Yang!"
She smiled, took Xi Lie's arm, and happily walked out of the office.
"Ahh I'm so happy! As she spoke, she jumped up, grabbed Xi Lie's neck, and slapped him in the face several times, causing the people around her to look sideways for a while.
"Oh, yes, young lady, is it really good to sprinkle dog food in public like this!" The little nurse's teasing voice sounded, and Shen Mi didn't care.
Where can she take care of what shyness or not shyness now, her illness is almost cured, Xi Lie no longer has to be tired, she can be a healthy person, and in the future, she will paint and make people, husband and children, it can't be more beautiful!
"Oops, wait a minute! I have one more question for Uncle Yang! Shen Mi said, let go of him, ran to Yang Cheng's office with a smoke, and subconsciously closed the door. After a while, he came out with a red face.
"Let's go! Nailed it! She smiled, looking refreshed.
"What are you asking?" Xi Lie looked back, and was about to go back to ask, but was quickly stopped by her eyes.
"Let's go, let's go, I'll tell you!"
The two had some breakfast outside the hospital to fill their stomachs, and then left to go back to the old house.
"How's my wig? Is it right? Wait a minute, put on some lipstick, it looks a little bad......" Along the way, Shen Mi was like a new daughter-in-law who met her in-laws for the first time, muttering and sorting out her appearance, always feeling uneasy.
"It's good." Xi Lie took the moment to glance at her and replied.
"Oops, isn't it too red? I didn't wear much makeup before, wouldn't it look weird? Grandma is so shrewd, she will definitely see that something is wrong......" She sighed, took out a tissue and wiped it again, tossed for a long time, and finally satisfied.
Xi Lie smiled faintly, looking at her energetic appearance, and his heart also relaxed. "Okay, grandma will be happy when you go back, where can you take care of so much? Don't be nervous. β
As they spoke, the two had already walked to the avenue at the entrance of the Xi family's old house, and saw Chen Man waiting for them in the courtyard from a distance.
"Mom, I'm back!" After getting out of the car, Shen Mi trotted into Chen Man's arms and smiled energetically.
Chen Man looked at her, "I haven't grown much meat recently, today my mother instructed the cook to cook a lot of delicious food for you, eat more!" β
"Okay!"
Entering the house, Xi Chongjin and Xi Yingjie were waiting for her with a smile, just like when she first came.
"Seeing my daughter-in-law so energetic, I thought of the past, my heart was up and down, and I was finally able to let go!" Xi Chongjin sighed and nodded with satisfaction.
"Grandpa, I'll just say I'm fine! You still don't believe it. Shen Mi laughed dryly, stepped forward, and blinked dogly.
"Hmph, you also said that our family is about to die of worry! Look at your dad, his hair is a lot grayer, and if you look at grandpa, the top of his head is bald! Xi Chongjin snorted coldly, lowered his head and accused
"That's it, grandpa likes his thick hair, and he could have bragged about it among his friends of the same age, but now it's okay, there's a coin-sized open space above his head!" Xi Yingjie said, and pretended to be unhappy for the old man.
Shen Mi was amused by them, and affectionately stepped forward to play treasure, "Grandpa, even if you are bald, you are handsome!" β
This sentence caused a burst of laughter around her, and the atmosphere in the house was finally much brighter because she returned healthy.
"I'm going to see grandma." After chatting with them, Shen Mi smiled and went straight to the second floor of his heart.
Lin Meijuan was lying on the bed with her eyes closed and recuperating, her spirit looked much worse than before, and she felt sad for a while.
Seeing her, Zhang's mother stood up and paced to her.
"The old lady just fell asleep. Let's have lunch and come back! β
"Mom Zhang, how is grandma doing?" Shen Mi sighed and asked worriedly.
"After the last time I was cold, it was not as good as a day, waiting for you to finish your work, and it is estimated that you will be admitted to the hospital for treatment." Zhang's mother said, her face grief-stricken.
When she heard this, she felt uncomfortable, paced to the side of the bed and squatted down, staring at Lin Meijuan for a moment.
Lin Meijuan lost a lot of weight, her cheeks were sunken, the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes were deeper, her hair was gray, and her eye sockets were a little sunken.
After looking at it for a long time, she straightened up and silently exited the room.
Outside the door, I met Xi Lie and Xi Yu.
"Sister-in-law." Xi Yu lowered his eyes and called out cordially.
Shen Mi nodded, "It's been a long time since I've seen my little uncle." β
"Xiaoyu has been promoted to deputy general manager, you have to congratulate him." Xi Lie tugged at the corners of his mouth, patted Xi Yu's shoulder, and said with a smile.
"Really? That's really going to congratulate the little uncle. Shen Mixiao, although this family business will be taken over by Xi Yu sooner or later, but the little uncle is still studying, and Xi Yu is only in his twenties, and he can become the vice president step by step from the bottom with his own ability, which is already very powerful, and it is indeed a thing worth celebrating.
"When I take office, my sister-in-law must come over with a face!" Xi Yu said and winked at her, she nodded, and she agreed.
Xi Lie went in to look at Lin Meijuan, and then came out worriedly.
"Let's go, have lunch first, and come to see grandma later."
Indeed, as Chen Man said, in order to replenish Shen Mi's body, today's lunch at noon was really delicious, delicacies from the mountains and seas, and light side dishes, which made her dizzy and couldn't eat it.
"By the way, Lie'er, have you met with your Uncle Song recently?" At the dinner table, Xi Yingjie asked.
Xi Lie's eyes faded and he shook his head.
"It's not a problem to go on like this, so I can't meet people now. Is there anything you can't talk about? So many years of friendship ......"
Xi Lie didn't answer when he heard this, and the corners of his mouth hooked up an indifferent smile.
"Okay, Lie'er has his own ideas, and you don't have to say a word." Xi Chongjin interrupted.
Shen Mi observed the situation on the table on the side, while serving Xi Lie vegetables to eat.
After lunch, Xi Lie was called to the study, Shen Mi was pulled by Chen Man to rest in the living room, and Xi Yu was in a hurry to go back to work in the company, and they all started to be busy for a while.
"Mom, just tell me if you have anything!" Shen Mi had already found that Chen Man always wanted to speak and stopped, his eyes secretly looked at her several times, and he wanted to talk to her several times, but then swallowed it back, making her anxious.
"That's right, I've heard a little bit about the Song family's side. I'm a little worried, and I don't know what's going on now. Wenwen may not be here for a long time......" Chen Man said, sighing anxiously.
"Mom, don't worry, Xi Lie is free to measure." Shen Mi smiled and said softly with relief.
Not to mention that Chen Man didn't know, even she didn't know what the situation was now. Song Shuwen came and left, and the Song family didn't make a sound, and she was also very anxious.
"You're in good health, but don't do anything. Take good care of your illness, and then you can fill in another son and a half daughter for the Xi family, this is the right thing. Chen Man said, and began the clichΓ© again.
Shen Mi nodded and answered softly.
"By the way, recently, I gave Yu'er a blind date in Zhang Luo." Chen Man said with a smile, "You have to add some popularity to the Xi family, as soon as you get sick, the home is deserted, Yu'er has been busy with work recently, it is best to have someone to take care of you." In life, don't always work and work, it's meaningless. β
She was stunned for a moment, and her eyes widened gossipingly.
"I don't know which daughter Mom wants to introduce to Xiaoyu?"
"I only informed Yu'er, if I don't find a girlfriend recently, I can only go out on my own. Cloud City's daughters have grabbed a lot of them, and I have to sift through them well. Chen Man said with a smile and patted Shen Mi's shoulder, "You can also introduce it well, our family attaches great importance to internality and cultivation, and it doesn't matter if the family background is good or not." β
Shen Mi blinked, nodded, and responded.
Speaking of which, there are really few girls around.
Originally, there was a Lu Yue, but it turned out that people made their stomachs bigger without making a sound, so there must be no chance, Luo Wan'er is a relative, it doesn't work, Amy's kid is a little crazy, Xi Yu has a big head when he sees her, and there is really no suitable candidate.
"Mom, let Xiaoyu find it by himself first, after all, the most important thing is if you like it."
"Well, it's just that I don't trust his eyes a little, you see the girlfriend you found before, almost ruined him. It was not easy to come out, and this time I must keep my eyes open. β
Chen Man muttered for a while, Xi Lie came out of the study, his face was not very good, Shen Mi saw him, and greeted him with great insight.
"It's a crisp autumn today, let's go for a walk in the backyard!" Shen Mi said, grabbed his arm, and dragged him out.
"How?" Out of the door, Xi Lie lowered his eyes and asked.
"Oh, don't keep your face calm in front of your mother, she's so worried. Hey, the scenery of the back mountain is good! Shen Mi diverted the topic, looked at the path full of golden leaves, and felt that it was particularly beautiful.
"Okay." Xi Lie raised his head and sighed faintly, "I think at the beginning, you tested my concentration here. β
"What?"
She was a little stunned, blinked, and suddenly remembered the experience of the two of them who were here for a fake belly and almost rubbed on fire, and couldn't help but blush, and glanced at him faintly.
"I'm sorry to say! Tsk, man! She scoffed.
Xi Lie smiled indifferently, "This angle of yours, it seems, is very ......"
"How's that?" She looked up suspiciously, meeting his burning eyes.
"It's fragrant." Xi Lie smiled, looking at her revealing half of her white neck, as well as her slightly protruding collarbone, and her fluffy undershirt sticking to her body, with a more gentle atmosphere.
ββ¦β¦ Something weird is going through your head all day long! She blushed unappetly and muttered under her breath.
The autumn wind passed through the forest, and the fallen leaves fell in a rustling sound on the ground, and a few leaves fell on her wig.
"Oops, I forgot to ask today, when will I grow my hair!" Shen Mi patted his head and muttered.
Xi Lie raised his eyebrows helplessly when he heard this, "Then what did you ask when you went back today?" β
"I won't tell you." She grinned and grabbed his arm, "Go back, it's a little cold......"
couldn't resist him, Xi Lie scooped her into his arms and hugged her tightly from behind, just like at the beginning.
"You ......" she stiffened and didn't dare to move, her ears turning red uncontrollably.
"What do you think, your thoughts are very dirty." Xi Lie was speechless, put his arm on her shoulder, and pushed her forward with a big grin.
Back in the house, she was a little sleepy, went upstairs to take a look, Lin Meijuan hadn't woken up yet, so at Chen Man's insistence, she returned to the previous room to prepare for a lunch break.
Xi Lie followed her into the room with a grin.
"I'm sick now." She scurried to the bed.
He shook his head, took a thick quilt from the cupboard, and carefully covered it.
Shen Mi smiled and patted the position next to him, "Husband, come on, together." β
"You sleep, I don't bully the sick number, and you don't want to bully me." Xi Lie shook his head helplessly and exited the room.
Looking at the familiar room, she turned over with peace of mind and fell asleep.
slept until nearly three o'clock, and after getting up, I found that Lin Meijuan had woken up and was taking medicine under the service of Zhang's mother.
"Daughter-in-law Sun, I haven't seen you for so long, you're finally here!" Lin Meijuan struggled to sit up, but was quickly stopped by Shen Miyan.
"Grandma, lie down." She subconsciously sat next to her.
"Daughter-in-law Sun, you haven't been busy with anything lately! Grandma hasn't seen you in almost two months! Lin Meijuan sighed leisurely and asked rather aggrieved.
Shen Mi's expression froze, and then he pulled the corners of his mouth, "Grandma, I'm a well-known cartoonist now, I'm not busy, I'll pay more attention in the future, I'll come to see you every once in a while, don't think I'm annoying!" β
"Is it that grandma always urges you to have children, are you unhappy?" Lin Meijuan sighed.
"No, no, I'm trying! Let Xi Lie drink some tonic soup tonight, let's continue to work hard! Shen Mi smiled, coaxing Lin Meijuan's heart to bloom, and her expression brightened a lot.
"Okay, that's good, grandma supports you spiritually!" Lin Meijuan smiled and took her hand, unwilling to let go for a long time.
Shen Mi's heart was sour, looking at her increasingly thin hands, her mouth was curled, and she couldn't speak.
It didn't take long for Lin Meijuan to hold on again, and with the help of Chen's mother, she turned over and took a few heavy breaths.
"Daughter-in-law, grandma is afraid that she won't be able to hold on to that day......"
Lin Meijuan's eyes stared at her faintly, and she sighed inaudibly.
"Grandma, no, you will live a hundred years." Shen Mi shook his head and said softly with relief.
Lin Meijuan shook her head, with a smile on her face.
"My body, I know, has been feeling more and more recently that one foot has stepped into the coffin, you guys work hard, grandma insists on holding on."
Shen Mi nodded, confused.
With her disease, she will not be able to have a child within two or three years, because the relationship between medication and chemotherapy may lead to the deformity of the child.
In this way, I can only pin my hopes on Xi Yu.
Coming out of Lin Meijuan's room, she was in a heavy mood, lost her appetite, and only ate a few bites of dinner in the evening.
Xi Lie sensitively noticed that she was a little absent-minded, and after dinner, he dragged her back to the house.
What she didn't expect was that Xu Na, who was shouting to leave in the morning, hadn't left at this time, and when she saw them come back, she followed Wang Yue and greeted her with a smile.
"Sir, what are you going to have for dinner?" Xu Na asked.
"We've eaten, so let's eat." Shen Mi replied good-naturedly.
Wang Yue glanced at Xu Na fiercely, and a smile appeared on her face again, "Then you guys will rest for a while, and I'll go to Zhang Luo and them for dinner." β
"Hmm." Xi Lie responded lightly, took her arm, and went upstairs.
Back in the room, Shen Mi changed into comfortable clothes and nestled in the chaise longue next to him to think about things.
"What do you think?" Xi Lie took a thin blanket and covered her.
"I can't see that you still have the physique to attract bees and butterflies! I look at that little girl, eighty percent of them have taken a fancy to you. Shen Mi was speechless and teased.
Xi Lie didn't even move his brows, just sat down comfortably next to her, closed his eyes and rested.
"It's not about this now, it's that you don't look very happy." He said slowly.
"Oh, you think I'm jealous? I'm worried about my grandmother's body. Shen Mi turned him by an elbow and said worriedly.
"Diabetes is like this, complications cannot be prevented, it is useless for you to worry about it, and you will send your grandmother to the hospital for treatment in a few days." Xi Lie sighed and took her into his arms.
"Alas, it's all my fault, I didn't take care of my body, now it's okay, I can't have a child in two or three years, so my grandmother's hopes have been disappointed......" Thinking of Lin Meijuan's expectant eyes gradually dimming, she felt uncomfortable for a while.
"So take care of yourself and let's start all over again." Xi Lie comforted good-naturedly.
"Hmm......" Shen Mi nodded and stood up, "I'll go take a shower." β
Xi Lie intimately helped her adjust the temperature and raised the temperature of the air conditioner, and then beckoned her in.
"Tuk-tuk."
Not long after Shen Mi entered, there was a knock at the door of the room, and he opened the door to find Xu Na holding a bowl of soup and medicine in her hand, looking at him with an innocent face.
"Sir, this is what my mother asked me to send me, saying that it was a decoction for my wife to drink."
Xi Lie stretched out his hand to take it, turned around and put the medicine on the cabinet beside him, and when she turned around, she hadn't left yet, she was looking at him with big eyes.
"You're not leaving?" He frowned slightly, his tone a little displeased.
"Ah, I'll go." Xu Na realized that she was a little too straightforward, turned around and wanted to leave, but turned back hesitantly, and said softly: "Good night, Mr. Xi." β
Xi Lie slammed the door with his backhand.
There was a sound of rushing water from the bathroom, and he felt a little confused, so he couldn't help but stand up, ran to the balcony and smoked a cigarette, and then called Chen Ming and motioned for him to come up.
"What's the matter with you?" He asked, grimacingly.
"What?" Chen Ming was confused and looked at him in a daze.
"I didn't ask you to give it away in the morning, why are you still in the evening?" Xi Lie asked in a low voice, his expression a little displeased.
Chen Ming shook his head speechlessly, "I originally said that I was leaving, and then halfway through, she said that she had left something behind and wanted to come back to pick it up, so I had to bring it back." And then I didn't hear her say that she was leaving, I can't drive others away, can I? β
Xi Lie's expression turned cold, obviously unhappy.
"Big brother, a person is just a little girl, it's normal to see a handsome guy like you, what's the matter, sister-in-law is unhappy?" Chen Ming looked at his face and asked cautiously.
"Not really, I'm annoyed." Xi Lie glanced at him coldly, "In the future, if there is any female in the house, the task of sending people away will be handed over to you." β
"Me?? I'm still a single dog, I don't want it! Chen Ming shook his head quickly.
Xi Lie frowned slightly, and there was a suffocating sense of oppression in his eyes, "Since you don't want to do this thing, you better go back to the army and work from five to nine." β
Chen Ming's face turned pale when he heard this, and his head shook like a rattle.
"I'll go, I can't go!" After speaking, he sighed heavily and ran away with a broken face.
Xi Lie returned to the room, Shen Mi had just finished taking a bath, his body exuded the fragrance of shower gel, with some dense water vapor, and his face was flushed, which looked particularly cute and attractive.
"I've found that since my hair has fallen out, I have been able to take a shower or something, and I've saved a lot of trouble." She wiped her head with a bath towel, and the old god was muttering on the ground, and suddenly noticed that something was wrong with his eyes, so he had to cover his head with a towel in embarrassment.
"I'm sorry I didn't think about your visuals, wait until I find a hat to put on!" As she spoke, she paced to the side to look for her hat, but Xi Lieyan quickly grabbed her arm.
He didn't speak, just hung his head and kissed her shiny head.
"You go and lie down, I'll take a shower. By the way, the medicine is there, it's already cold. Don't drink it, let Sister Wang boil it again later. β
As he spoke, he pulled a bathrobe and rushed into the bathroom.
Shen Mihu glanced at him suspiciously, and suddenly saw the decoction next to the cabinet, although he was a little confused, he still obediently listened to his words and took out his mobile phone to surf the Internet.
Thinking that she hadn't been posted for a long time after the operation, she knocked on a short thank you again, saying that she was already on the road to recovery, and thanked everyone for their support and encouragement.
After a while, the phone clicked, and Mike actually left her a message, said congratulations, and said that he would come to Cloud City soon, and invite her to dinner at that time.
She rolled on the bed contentedly, feeling that she was a winner in life.
Just as she sighed, Xi Lie had already finished taking a shower, his bathrobe hung loosely on his body, revealing his strong abdominal muscles, and he was wiping his wet hair with his head down, looking majestic and lazy.
Shen Mi was speechless, this man never wore a bathrobe well, didn't this test her with a red fruit?
Thinking about it, she couldn't help but swallow her saliva and clear her throat unnaturally.
"I'll blow your hair for you!" She blinked and jumped out of bed.
In the past, Xi Lie was a capable inch, she never needed to blow her hair, she could dry it after shaking it twice, but recently she didn't seem to have much time to take care of her hair because of her treatment, and it grew a lot, and it had a little more chic taste.
Xi Lie nodded, found the hair dryer, and sat comfortably in front of her exclusive dresser.
She was happily busy, her fingers moving nimbly between his hair, and Xi Lie's eyes were down, all on her short legs in her home cotton stockings.
After a while, after finishing her work, she put away the hair dryer, quickly pressed Xi Lie, who was about to stand up, and ran to him with quick movements, and smiled.
"Do you know what I asked Uncle Yang today?"
"What?"
"I ask if I can have an inside deal with you now."
With that, she smiled slyly, quickly lifted her short legs, and rode onto his lap.
"Uncle Yang said, of course you can!"
