Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Suddenly Made a Comeback!-Chapter 800: So It Was Her Causing the Trouble!
Chapter 800: Chapter 800: So It Was Her Causing the Trouble!
"You, young lady, how can you be so disrespectful and interrupt when your elders are speaking? Who do you think you are?" Meng Xuezhi began accusing Jiang Li out of nowhere, like fireworks exploding.
Lin Manru saw her scolding her own daughter and was immediately displeased.
"Meng Xuezhi, my daughter was simply showing concern for her aunt. When did she interrupt? Besides, even if my daughter was being presumptuous, it’s not your place to lecture her."
"You!"
By now, Meng Wanzhi had also figured things out.
Lin Manru’s relationship with her had always been clear to her.
And for her, Meng Wanzhi felt immense gratitude.
Ever since she married into the Jiang Family, Lin Manru had taken great care of her, never giving her a hard time and even treating her warmly like an elder sister.
While she was postpartum, Lin Manru was the one creating meal plans for her, hiring confinement ladies and maids, and even coming over every night to help take care of the babies.
To put it more severely, if it were not for Lin Manru, she wouldn’t have been able to stay a day in the Jiang Family.
Even the Eldest Miss Jiang, who had once looked down on her, had rushed over tonight, finding Bu Fan and Bu Chen and even thoughtfully serving tea and water when everyone else ignored her.
This sister of hers, from the moment she woke up, hadn’t stopped complaining.
Initially, she harbored some resentment towards the Jiang Family, so she let it be.
But now, hearing what Jiang Li said, it seemed there was quite a misunderstanding.
Meng Wanzhi’s eyes closed and then opened, her expression growing cold.
"Sister, what is going on? You were the one who said that the Jiang Family hadn’t sent anyone to pick me up and that I should return home myself on New Year’s Eve to make them feel guilty, weren’t you? Otherwise, I wouldn’t have rushed with Bu Fan and Bu Chen and nearly gotten into an accident."
Lin Manru now understood.
So it had always been this maternal aunt who was causing trouble!
She quickly grabbed Meng Wanzhi’s hand and said, "Wanzhi, we never meant for you not to come back. Grandfather calls home every week, always thinking about Bu Fan and Bu Chen. We were indeed prepared to pick you up today, but stopped after your mother-in-law told us over the phone that you wouldn’t be returning."
Meng Wanzhi’s face looked even worse.
She didn’t know any of this.
All she knew was that at that time, her mother and Meng Xuezhi were furious, cursing the entire Jiang Family for being cold-hearted rich people and even threatening them during the New Year.
She too had gotten angry and had blurted out that she would never return.
But the next day, Meng Xuezhi came over to persuade her, saying it was unlucky not to have a reunion dinner during the New Year and even offering to accompany her back, so she had hurriedly set off.
Little did she think...
"Sister, is this how you and mom treat me?"
Meng Xuezhi’s face turned alternately pale and flushed, quickly running to the bedside to explain, "No, Wanzhi, it wasn’t like that, I didn’t mean to, you’re my dear sister, naturally, I hope for the best for you. I thought, I thought..."
Her brain was racing, teeth clenched as she said, "I thought the Jiang Family’s frequent calls were just lip service, not showing you real concern, so mom and I were so angry. As for the hospital... I wasn’t seeing you unconscious just to put down my own name. You were injured, how could you be moved around?"
Meng Xuezhi looked very anxious, even her eyes reddening.
Meng Wanzhi didn’t speak.
After all, the other person was her own flesh and blood, her real sister, and indeed she had been the one looking after her all day while she was unconscious.
"I’m sorry, sister, it might have been a misunderstanding... everyone misunderstood, a mix-up. I don’t blame you, if there’s anyone to blame, it’s my bad luck, just unfortunate."
"Right, right, right, it’s just a misunderstanding." Meng Xuezhi said as she poured a cup of hot water and handed it to Meng Wanzhi, "You should also stop talking and have some water to soothe your throat. You’ve just woken up and need to rest quietly."
Seeing this, Lin Manru couldn’t say much.
After all, they were sisters, and she, as a sister-in-law, had no place to interfere.
Jiang Mingchuan swiftly completed the procedures and arranged the highest-grade hospital room for Meng Wanzhi.
He spent almost the entire night busily going back and forth, thoughtfully bringing Meng Wanzhi nursing products and food.
Yet, a glacial divide remained between the couple, and despite this, they didn’t speak a single word.
Lin Manru and the old master reported that they were safe, and seeing the two groggy little buns sleeping on the couch, her heart ached. She discussed with Meng Wanzhi,
"Maybe I should take Bu Fan and Bu Chen home with me for the next few days. They distract you here. Why don’t you take this opportunity to recover properly? I’ll watch them at the house for you."
Meng Wanzhi also thought Lin Manru’s suggestion was good.
Though she disliked the family atmosphere at the Jiangs’, everyone there from the old master to the children was quite fond of Bu Fan and Bu Chen, and they would indeed be better cared for at home.
Moreover, with so many people coming in and out of the hospital, she couldn’t afford another shock if they were lost or got sick again.
"Alright then, I’ll trouble you, sister-in-law."
Upon hearing this, the previously lazy Meng Xuezhi on the couch immediately woke up.
"Can you manage these two rascals, sister? Why don’t I come with you? It’s good to have an extra person looking after them."
Meng Wanzhi’s injuries from the car accident weren’t light—she had a broken arm and her leg was hurt too. She wouldn’t be able to leave the hospital for at least ten days or half a month.
Originally, she had come with the intention to stay and enjoy the luxury at the Jiang family’s large mansion. freewebnσvel.cѳm
She certainly didn’t want to be stuck in the hospital taking care of her sister like an old nurse.
Lin Manru was somewhat reluctant, but Meng Wanzhi on the bed thought for a moment and then said, "That’s fine too, with you helping to watch Bu Fan and Bu Chen, I’ll be more at ease, sister."
Now that Meng Wanzhi had spoken, Lin Manru naturally couldn’t say much else. She just had to get the sleepy Jiang Yan up to drive.
The two little guys also woke up and knowing they were going back to their grandfather’s house, Jiang Bufan immediately cheered up.
"Awesome, we’re going back to grandpa’s!"
"Mom, don’t worry about us—we’ll take good care of ourselves. You need to take good care of yourself in the hospital too."
Compared to Jiang Bufan, Jiang Buchen spoke less and merely stood silently by the bed holding Meng Wanzhi’s hand.
Jiang Mingchuan was packing their things and turned around upon hearing this and ruffled Jiang Bufan’s head.
"Mom isn’t alone, dad will take good care of mom."
But clearly, Jiang Bufan didn’t agree with him and turned his head away, shaking off his hand.
"Bad uncle, don’t touch me!"
Jiang Mingchuan’s heart broke again, gently.
Lin Manru carried Jiang Bufan out, and Meng Xuezhi, as if afraid that Meng Wanzhi might change her mind, hurriedly followed.
Jiang Li saw Jiang Buchen trying to fit his water cup into a small bag and walked over.
"Let me help you."
Jiang Buchen looked at her, blinked his eyes, and then suddenly smiled.
"Thank you, sister."
