The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 1162: Chapter 1162 The Situation of the Hong Family

Shu Yu worried he might eat too much and have some indigestion, so she held his hand and walked slowly around the room, talking to him.

Although she was the only one talking, Gouwa never spoke a word.

After walking two laps like this, Gouwa was tired. After all, he was only two years old, and what happened in the living room earlier had already drained the little guy’s energy.

Shu Yu took him to the toilet and then put him on the bed, patting his shoulder, ”Sleep now, regain your energy and then we’ll talk about other things.”

Gouwa had just come to this unfamiliar place and was still a bit uneasy.

Fortunately, Shu Yu kept him company while talking to him, being patient and pleasant, and in the end, he couldn’t resist and fell asleep.

Once he was deeply asleep, Old Doctor Zhao came over.

Shu Yu moved aside from the bedside, allowing Old Doctor Zhao to check his pulse.

After checking, Old Doctor Zhao came out and softly said to Shu Yu and the others, ”This child probably hasn’t been eating well, his pulse is weak, and his body is lacking. Coupled with rough food, his spleen and stomach are damaged, he probably hasn’t defecated for two days. I’ll prescribe some mild medicine for him later; it’s not a big problem. He is only young now, and he can gradually recover from it in the future. As long as we’re here, we won’t let him go hungry again.”

Meng Pei asked on the side, ”What about his speech problem?”

Old Doctor Zhao shook his head, ”This can’t be determined yet. I need to wait until he trusts me enough, then I can examine his throat to determine if it’s an issue with his vocal cords.”

With children, they certainly require enough patience.

The few exchanged a glance; it seems that for now, this is all they can do. First, they need to nourish him with food.

Shu Yu thought of their journey departing from the Capital tomorrow and asked, ”Can he travel with us tomorrow?”

Old Doctor Zhao nodded, ”Anyway, we’ll be traveling by waterway; no need to worry about bumps. Traveling is not a problem.”

With that said, everyone was relieved.

Just as they were talking, Ying Xi returned.

She had secretly followed Aunt Hong earlier, visited her house, and asked around a bit in the neighborhood.

”The Hong Family is also south of the city, three streets away from us.” Probably it was because they lived close that Aunt Hong could inquire about Meng Yunzheng’s residence.

Ying Xi said, ”I asked around the neighbors of the Hong Family, and what Aunt Hong said was indeed true. Song Dazhuang was indeed being raised by the Hong Family; the head of the Hong Family treated this nephew very well. So they also prepared a dowry for him to marry a wife, whose surname is Wei. Ms. Wei was indeed taken back by her family two years ago, and at the time, this matter was quite a stir around that neighborhood.”

Although the Hong Family parents were indeed good to Song Dazhuang, the Hong Family’s children did not particularly like this foolish cousin because of Song Dazhuang’s reason, the Hong Family children were often ridiculed by the neighboring kids during their childhood.

Naturally, the feelings didn’t improve much as they grew up.

Originally, after Song Dazhuang got married, the Hong Family’s sons and daughters wanted him to move out.

But Old Man Hong disagreed, and the conflict escalated out of control.

Therefore, when Ms. Wei was taken back by her family, the Hong Family’s children only made a token attempt to stop them and then couldn’t be bothered to care.

Now, only Gouwa remains at the Hong Family; when Old Man Hong was still around, he was the head of the family and spoke with authority.

Half a year ago, he passed away, and the family’s sons directly divided the household. Aunt Hong went with the Eldest Hong, and the eldest son’s wife was very displeased, constantly cursing, because Aunt Hong was taking care of Gouwa.
