It was only two days of vacation.
Xia Linxi did not see Qin Peng for a few days. He did not even meet him by chance.
Xia Linxi couldn't hold it in any longer and only found out the reason why Qin Peng had been missing for so many days after asking his mother. While the family was resting, Uncle Qin brought Qin Peng's grandfather, Qin Jianguo, to the hospital for a physical examination. The results were not good. It was not a problem with his blood pressure, but an unknown shadow was found in Grandpa Qin's stomach. It was suspected to be a tumor. The doctor arranged for Grandpa Qin to be hospitalized on the same day for a more detailed examination. The Qin family was frightened by this matter, especially Qin Peng. He had a good relationship with his grandfather since he was young. Now, he stayed by Grandpa Qin's side and waited for the results of the examination.
Qin Peng's grandfather, Qin Jianguo, didn't like to live in Qin Peng's neighborhood because the people living in this neighborhood went to work every day. Old Master Qin didn't have anyone to talk to when he lived here. In the end, he ignored Qin Fujiang and Wen Meiqiong's objections and bought a house in a residential area with more elderly people.
Old Master Qin only came to the neighborhood where Qin Peng's family lived during the New Year. The rest of the time, Qin Peng's family would go to visit Old Master Qin. Qin Peng would also stay with Old Master Qin during the holidays.
Xia Linxi's heart tightened when she heard that. She had a good impression of Grandpa Qin. Qin Jianguo was an old man who loved to laugh. When he was young, he would play and even bring her and Qin Peng to the forest to stick cicadas. When she thought about the amiable and fun old man in her memory who might have a terminal illness, she felt suffocated.
She couldn't help but think of Qin Peng. At the thought of this, he secretly scolded himself for being stupid. He must be in the wrong. Who wouldn't feel bad about such a thing happening before the new year? Not to mention, that was his favorite grandfather.
Xia Linxi sighed. All she could do now was pray that Grandpa Qin's checkup results were good.
Fortunately, the results came out on the afternoon of the examination. It was just a polyp, and it would be fine after a minor surgery.
The Qin family finally heaved a sigh of relief when they heard the results. Qin Fujiang held the doctor's hand and thanked him continuously. Wen Meiqiong cried on the spot, and Qin Peng finally revealed a smile that he had not seen for a long time. On the other hand, Qin Jianguo's old man was very calm. He lay on the hospital bed and looked at his daughter-in-law who was crying all over her face. He said calmly,"Don't cry. I'll tell you that I'm fine, right? I'm just gaining weight by thinking blindly.”
The next step was to take care of Old Master Qin.
When Xia Linxi saw Wen Meiqiong return home, she couldn't wait to ask about the situation in the hospital. When she heard that Grandpa Qin was fine, her heart finally relaxed. She took out her phone and wanted to send Qin Peng a WeChat message, but when her fingers hung on the keyboard, her mind went blank. What was she going to say to Qin Peng? Blessing? Forget it, let's talk about it in the future. After thinking about it, he put his phone back into his pocket.
Old Master Qin's surgery was scheduled for the 30th day of the Lunar New Year, which was the day after tomorrow. Xia Linxi's mother thought that Wen Meiqiong's family would be accompanying her in the hospital and probably wouldn't have time to make dumplings, so she called Wen Meiqiong and said that she would make dumplings at home and send them to them. No matter what, they had to eat dumplings during the Lunar New Year.
Wen Meiqiong declined Chen Qin's kindness. Xia Linxi's father, Xia Longgui, had been looking for connections everywhere when Old Master Qin was hospitalized. He even ran up and down the fields with Qin Fujiang. She was already embarrassed enough. Now, she was asking Chen Qin to make dumplings for their family. She was too embarrassed to accept it.
In the end, Chen Qin even called Wen Meiqiong by her nickname and even said," We've known each other for more than 20 years.”Wen Meiqiong couldn't help but cry. In the end, she thanked Chen Qin while crying.
On New Year's Eve, Xia Linxi, Chen Qin, and Xia Longgui went to visit Old Master Qin.
As soon as she entered the hospital, the pungent smell of disinfectant made Xia Linxi frown. Perhaps it was the trauma left behind by injections when she was young. She had never liked hospitals since she was young. Even when she was sick, she would take medicine and never come to the hospital for an IV drip.
Under Xia Longgui's lead, Chen Qin and Xia Linxi finally arrived at Old Master Qin's ward. Xia Linxi looked at the sign above her head that said " Oncologist Department." A chill ran down her spine, making her shiver. She lowered her head and followed her parents into the ward.
As it was a single ward, Xia Linxi immediately saw Old Master Qin lying on the bed. Old Master Qin's white hair had increased a lot and he had lost a lot of weight. Perhaps it was because he had been hospitalized for the past few days, but he did not look too good.
When Old Master Qin heard the sound of the door opening, he looked up and saw the Xia family carrying big and small bags. He exchanged a few words with Chen Qin and Xia Longgui before seeing Xia Linxi standing at the back. Xia Linxi quickly said,"Hello, Grandpa Qin."
The old man looked at her and smiled." Xiao Xi, I haven't seen you at Grandpa's house for a long time."”Although the old man's voice was a little hoarse, it was still deep and deep, making it impossible to tell that he had just finished surgery.
" Grandpa," Xia Linxi said with a smile," I'll go play with you when you're better. Then, you can bring me to Sticky Cicada."”
The old man was in a good mood after hearing that. He smiled until his eyes narrowed into a line and said,"Alright, alright. I'll bring you and Pengpeng to stick cicadas together during the next summer vacation.”
Xia Linxi smiled and replied. Seeing that her father had gone to talk to Uncle Qin, she began to look for Qin Peng. From the moment she came in, she had not seen anyone other than Old Master Qin, let alone Qin Peng. Could it be that Qin Peng was deliberately avoiding her?
Through the conversation between Old Master Qin and her parents, she found out that Uncle Qin had gone to the pharmacy to get some medicine. When he came back later, Auntie Wen had gone to buy food, but she did not mention Qin Peng.
Xia Linxi couldn't hold it in anymore. He wanted to ask Old Master Qin, but he didn't know how to start. Old Master Qin seemed to have noticed Xia Linxi's hesitation and asked with a smile,""Little Xi, are you looking for Pengpeng? Pengpeng went to the water room to get water. Just go out and walk to the end of the corridor.”
Xia Linxi could only force himself to smile and say,""Grandpa, I'll go look for him." After saying that, she walked out of the ward and followed the route that the old man had given her. Before she left, she heard her mother say with a smile,"These two children have been close since they were young…"
After Xia Linxi heard that, she felt as if three black lines had appeared on her forehead. Where did she see that? Did she beat Qin Peng until he cried when she was young? Or did he tear his new clothes in a fight?
Xia Linxi was walking forward with her head lowered and her thoughts running wild when she bumped into someone. Before she could apologize, she heard a familiar voice above her head.
Xia Linxi, why are you here?"
