Chapter 200 A Mother Who Repays Evil with Kindness
In the ward, Tao Meiling looked much better. When the caregiver, Xiao Cui, saw Song Qiao, she quickly told her in detail about how Song Qiao had inquired about Jiang Xiaoran's ward.
"Miss! I've already checked with the nurses. The girl named Jiang Xiaoran is in pediatric bed 46. Would you like to go now, or wait a bit?"
Song Qiao looked at Xiao Cui and said, "Wait a minute, Xiao Cui, I have something to tell you."
Xiao Cui looked at Song Qiao nervously, thinking: Is it because the old lady has been discharged from the hospital and Song Qiao wants to settle the bill with her and leave?
"I just asked the doctor, and my mom's leg can go home to recover. I think she can be discharged tomorrow. I just wanted to ask for your opinion, do you want to go home with my mom?"
Hearing Song Qiao's words, Xiao Cui's eyes lit up with surprise: "Really? I can really go home with the old lady?"
"Really, you'll be staying with me from now on, taking care of my parents. They're both getting old, so you'll have to do all the grocery shopping, cooking, and cleaning. The monthly salary is eight thousand. If you have no objections, then it's settled."
“I have no objection! The old lady is such a kind person, and the young lady pays a good salary. I am willing to serve the madam and the gentleman.”
Hearing that Xiao Cui had no objections, Song Qiao nodded: "Then it's settled. I'll come over tomorrow to complete the discharge procedures."
Tao Meiling had no objection when she heard that Song Qiao wanted to take Xiao Cui home. She looked at her and said, "Why don't you go and check on Ranran? Is she sick with a cold or something?"
Tao Meiling knew nothing about what Jiang Xiaoran had done in her previous life. So, even though she knew that she wasn't Song Qiao's biological daughter, she had still raised her with great care. Besides, there's a saying: "The kindness of raising a child is greater than heaven." She thought that no matter what, this child would always have feelings for Song Qiao.
"Mom, no rush! I'll be there in a bit."
Having not been to the hospital for two days, Song Qiao sat by Tao Meiling's bedside and told her that Tong Yao would be returning to Jiangcheng the next day.
"Mom, you haven't met that child yet. He's so sensible. At such a young age, he already knows how to take care of his adoptive father who can't walk."
Upon hearing Song Qiao's words, Tao Meiling also wanted to see her child immediately.
"Qiaoqiao, when Mom is discharged from the hospital, take the child home so that Mom can have a good look at her."
Thinking of the child's fate, Tao Meiling wiped away her tears: "I never thought I would be able to find this child again. It's truly a blessing from heaven."
Yes, in her previous life, Tong Yao was right beside her, but she still couldn't acknowledge the child. She always thought that the ungrateful Jiang Xiaoran was her biological daughter. Now that she thinks about it, Zhao Xiaoya had reminded her many times that the child was hers, but she never considered that possibility.
"Okay! Mom, take good care of yourself. I'm going to visit Jiang Xiaoran."
Song Qiao didn't say it, but she didn't really care about the child. She just wanted to see if Zhao Xiaoya and Jiang Ming had returned.
Upon arriving at pediatric ward 46, Song Qiao stepped out of the elevator and went directly to bed 46.
But when they went inside, they only saw another boy and a girl lying there, but Jiang Xiaoran was nowhere to be seen.
"Excuse me, where did the child in this hospital bed go?"
Song Qiao looked at the little girl's mother on the hospital bed next to her and asked.
"Is this the little girl in the bed you're talking about? She's been discharged from the hospital!"
"Discharged from the hospital? Ma'am, do you know what happened to the child?"
The little girl's mother sat on the hospital bed, braiding her daughter's hair. She looked up at Song Qiao and said, "She caught a cold. Her mother brought her here, stayed for a while, and then left. We were the two of us watching over the child while she received her IV drip."
The little girl's mother glanced back at the little boy's mother on the other bed and said...
"Thank you!"
Song Qiao didn't waste any time talking to the girl's mother. She quickly left the ward and was about to go to the nurses' station when Lu Mingxuan came out of the elevator.
"Qiaoqiao!"
Song Qiao was surprised to see Lu Mingxuan: "Why are you here? Didn't I tell you to stay in the hospital and rest?"
"I'm worried about you coming to see Jiang Xiaoran alone. What if Jiang Ming and Zhao Xiaoya do something to harm you?"
Song Qiao looked at Lu Mingxuan with a pained expression: "This is a hospital, what can they do to me?"
After saying this, Song Qiao changed the subject: "Mingxuan, Jiang Xiaoran has been discharged from the hospital. I just came out of her ward. The people in the ward said that she left a while ago."
"Let's go! Let's go ask the nurse what happened."
Lu Mingxuan took Song Qiao's hand, and the two went to the nurses' station.
"Nurse, I'd like to ask if Jiang Xiaoran in bed 46 has been discharged?"
The nurse gave the two of them a wary look and asked, "Who are you to her?"
“We are her neighbors. We knew she was sick and wanted to come and visit, but we didn’t expect to see her.”
The nurse's gaze fell on Song Qiao's face: "This child has a bad temper. Since she came here, she has been so noisy that the two children in the ward can't get a proper rest. Also, her mother hasn't spent much time with her child since she arrived. She disappeared after the IV drip started. Later, she said she didn't want to get her injections here anymore, so we helped her with the discharge procedures."
It seems that Jiang Xiaoran's arrogant and domineering attitude hasn't changed at all. If Jiang Ming hadn't taken her out of the juvenile detention center, perhaps she would have improved by now. Song Qiao sighed and thought to herself: It seems that no matter how hard she tries in this life, she can't change Jiang Xiaoran's personality.
"Nurse, I understand, thank you!"
After Song Qiao and Lu Mingxuan came out of the nurses' station, they looked at each other and said, "It seems that Zhao Xiaoya accompanied Jiang Xiaoran to the hospital. The mother of the girl in the same ward also said that she did not see the child's father and does not know where they are staying now."
Suddenly, Song Qiao realized where Zhao Xiaoya and Jiang Xiaoran had gone.
"Looks like it's time for me to go back to my house!"
When Lu Mingxuan learned that Song Qiao was referring to the apartment in Sunshine Community, he asked, "Isn't Jiang Ming's name on the property certificate?"
“I have the purchase invoice. Besides, my father paid for the house. I can have Zhang Guangming sue the real estate bureau. Without my presence, why should they transfer the house to Jiang Ming?”
Jiang Ming ran away, and Song Qiao is now confident that she can get the house back.
"Alright then, I'll go with you to see a lawyer tomorrow. Qiaoqiao, since you're here, why don't you go and visit your aunt?"
Song Qiao also told Tao Meiling about Lu Mingxuan's injury. She was worried about his injury and decided to go and see him to put her mind at ease.
The two left the pediatrics department and went to the orthopedics department. At that moment, Tao Meiling was instructing Xiao Cui to pack her clothes in preparation for going home the next day.
Looking up and seeing Song Qiao and Lu Mingxuan enter, Tao Meiling's eyes lit up with surprise: "Mingxuan, what brings you here? How's your injury? I heard from Qiaoqiao that you got hurt protecting her. Child, I'm so sorry you suffered."
Lu Mingxuan smiled and said, "Auntie, this injury is nothing."
Then, looking at Xiao Cui packing her things, she asked, "Auntie, are you being discharged from the hospital?"
Upon hearing this, Song Qiao quickly explained, "The doctor also called me and said that my mother's leg can be healed at home. Besides, my mother always feels that it's not as convenient as home, so I've decided to bring Xiao Cui home."
Seeing that Tao Meiling looked much better, Lu Mingxuan nodded and said, "In that case, go home and rest. Qiaoqiao, I'll pick up your aunt when you're discharged tomorrow."
