Chapter 153 The most loyal dog around the heroine
Xie Qian nodded heavily, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, there will definitely not be a next time."
"Sister-in-law believes that you were just confused for a moment, but people only have one life, and not everyone can always be by your side to remind you, so you must be more careful in the future, understand?"
Xie Qian nodded vigorously again, "I will."
When Xie Qian calmed down and the two of them went out together, Zheng Chunying had already prepared the meal, and Xie Wenfeng and Uncle Xie Qi and Uncle Xie Liu had also returned.
Several people were sitting at the table eating. Aunt Xie Qi said, "I heard from the neighbor next door that the person you rescued today is named Wu, a teacher at the Beijing University School of Medicine. His wife is named Lin, also a teacher at Beijing University, and she seems to teach English."
Zheng Chunying smiled and looked at Tang Man. "She's from the medical department. Who knows? She might be Manman's teacher."
Tang Man smiled and replied, "I don't know, but Teacher Wu is so seriously injured that I'm afraid he won't be returning to school for a while."
Zheng Chunying nodded, "Yes."
After dinner, Uncle Xie Qi, Uncle Xie Liu and the others were also going home. Xie Yan also stood up and pulled Tang Man to stand up, "Then, Mom and Dad, we are going back too. We just moved here and have some luggage to pack."
Xie Wenfeng nodded and said, "Let's go back!"
Zheng Chunying sent the two of them to the door and said, "Xiaoyan, Manman is very tired today. You are responsible for cleaning up any chores. Don't let Manman do it again."
"Okay." Xie Yan replied and pulled Tang Man towards the alley opposite the clinic.
Xie Wenfeng has a house here. It’s not very big, but it’s very close to Peking University, only about ten minutes’ walk away.
The property deed of this house is already in Tang Man's hands. Xie Wenfeng said that this was a wedding gift for them. Previously, in order to make it convenient for them to study, they wanted Xie Qian to live here with them. Now that Xie Wenfeng and his family are here, they have opened a clinic nearby. In order not to disturb their lives, Xie Qian took the initiative to move to the clinic and live with Xie Wenfeng and his wife.
Xie Yan looked at Tang Man beside him and said, "Did something happen this afternoon? Something's wrong with Xixi."
Tang Man's expression remained unchanged, and her tone was filled with pity, "It hurts. Her entire knee is swollen. She cried for a long time when I applied medicine to her."
Xie Yan looked at the people around him for a long time before he looked away and looked at the road ahead without asking any more questions. He knew that Tang Man was lying. Although she looked fine, he just knew that she was not telling the truth.
However, since she was unwilling to say, he would not continue to ask, after all, it was just a matter between girls.
The next day.
When Tang Man got up, Xie Yan had already left. He left her a note saying that he was going to the clinic first and asked her to have breakfast there after she got up.
Tang Man hadn't had a good hot spring bath for a long time. Today was the perfect time for her. She entered the Lingquan space, took off her clothes and soaked in the hot spring for a while. She changed her clothes, went to the fish pond to catch a fish, caught a chicken, picked a juicy cabbage and some shepherd's purse, and took a piece of pork out of the Lingquan space. She put them in a bamboo basket and prepared to take them to the clinic.
It just so happened that Zheng Chunying and the others were all very busy right now, so she took on the task of buying groceries, and no one would refuse, so she could take the food out of the space.
"Get out of here."
Tang Man was walking slowly in the sparsely populated alley. When she passed a big door, she was suddenly hit by a force and took a few steps back.
She subconsciously hugged the person who bumped into her and took several steps back before she steadied herself. She looked down and saw that the person who bumped into her was a ragged, haggard boy.
She frowned and looked in the direction the boy had just run from. She saw a fat middle-aged woman standing in the half-open door. The woman had an angry look on her face and was holding a broom in her hand, shouting at the boy outside the door aggressively.
"You damn bastard, I'm giving you face, right? Get out, get out right now."
The boy came out of Tang Man's arms, rushed to the door and knelt there, tears streaming out of his eyes like a dam bursting, sliding down his tender cheeks, he begged in a crying voice.
"Aunt Zhuang, grandma is really seriously ill. Please ask you and dad to help grandma find a doctor."
The fat woman snorted coldly, "What are you asking for? Doesn't it cost money to hire a doctor? We can barely make ends meet, so how can we have extra money to take care of that old man?"
The boy kowtowed heavily to the fat woman, "Aunt Zhuang, please save grandma, please."
What happened here quickly attracted a lot of people. They gathered around and pointed and talked about the boy who was kneeling on the ground and crying.
Tang Man stood in the crowd and after listening for a while, he roughly understood the whole story.
The child's name is Jiang Ling. He is a poor child. Not long after his mother passed away due to illness when he was three years old, he quickly married his current wife. Since then, Jiang Ling's life has fallen into endless darkness and pain.
The stepmother abused Jiang Ling in every way, either beating or scolding him, causing the young Jiang Ling to suffer a lot of hardships that should not have belonged to him at his age. After Jiang Ling's grandparents learned about what their grandson had gone through, they took Jiang Ling to their side and took good care of him.
A few years ago, the child's grandfather died of illness, and his grandmother's health became worse and worse. In recent days, she has been bedridden. Jiang Ling comes here almost every day, just to beg his father and stepmother to have mercy and take his grandmother to see a doctor.
However, every time the child could not see his father, he would be kicked out by his stepmother.
Gangneung...
This name sounds familiar.
Tang Man thought carefully for a while and finally remembered the name.
In the original book, Jiang Ling is one of the youngest and most loyal bootlickers around Lin Siyu. Jiang Ling has no background, but he is a business genius. The reason why Lin Siyu's business empire can grow bigger and bigger is not only due to the products themselves, but also to this person's contribution.
Tang Man looked at the boy kneeling on the ground begging, and a smile flashed across her lips.
The reason why Jiang Ling became the most loyal bootlicker of Lin Siyu was that after Jiang Ling's grandmother passed away, Jiang Ling asked his father and stepmother to help bury his grandmother but was rejected. Then he met Lin Siyu. It was Lin Siyu who helped him settle his grandmother, brought him with her, and finally handed over all her business to him.
Tang Man had no idea whether Lin Siyu helped Jiang Ling out of kindness or because of the system, but she was very clear about one thing.
She wants this person.
In just a moment, Jiang Ling's stepmother had closed the door, and no matter how Jiang Ling knocked on the door and begged, the other party ignored him.
Tang Man walked over and handed Jiang Ling a handkerchief.
Jiang Ling looked at the white handkerchief, raised his head and stared blankly at the person standing in front of him.
"Wipe it first." Tang Man smiled at Jiang Ling and waved the handkerchief in her hand.
Jiang Ling did not reach out to take the handkerchief. He just stood up by holding the door, took a few steps back and put some distance between him and Tang Man. "Thank you, but no thanks."
As he said this, he raised his hand and wiped the tears from his face with his sleeve, then turned around and was about to leave.
