“Yes, yes, of course, but there’s no point talking so much before you’ve actually got the girl,” Chen Yunlu chuckled, then turned to look at her husband who was lying on the hospital bed. “Old Huo, have you heard? Your son is finally enlightened and wants to marry a girl. You must get well soon. Don’t you want to attend their wedding?”
Huo Zhen could not speak for the moment. He could only twitch his eyelids to show that he had heard her. He wanted to attend their wedding.
Huo Yunshen was moved after watching his parents’ interaction with each other. He could feel that they had great hopes for him.
They were constantly looking forward to him marrying and settling down as soon as possible, and inheriting the family business.
He had thought carefully about it. As soon as he could walk again, he would propose to Xu Xiyan and marry her as soon as possible.
He hoped that he would not need to wait long for this day to come.
While Huo Yunshen was accompanying his father in the hospital ward, Xu Xiyan was also in the same hospital.
When she came to her grandfather’s ward, Mrs. Dong, the care worker, had already taken care of her grandfather with his dinner. The old man was sitting on his bed, fiddling with a colored candy wrapper.
The first thing Xu Xiyan did after seeing Mrs. Dong was express her gratitude. “Mrs. Dong, thank you for taking care of my grandfather these past several days, it must be really hard for you.”
Mrs. Dong’s face was kind as she looked at her. She smiled and shook her head, “It’s nothing. I’m only doing my job.”
Xu Xiyan thanked Mrs. Dong from the bottom of her heart. It was also good luck that she was able to find such a good care worker.
She remembered the day after her grandfather was hospitalized, the plainly dressed Mrs. Dong had come into the ward herself and inquired whether there was anyone who was interested in hiring a care worker.
After talking with her, Xu Xiyan came to understand that Mrs. Dong’s family conditions were not very good. She needed money for her son’s college tuition, so she was desperate to find a job to fund her family expenses.
Xu Xiyan felt that she was a sincere and responsible person, so she hired her as a full-time care worker for her grandfather.
The Xu family patriarch’s condition was still the same and there were no improvements, especially in such a short time. The doctor recommended that he was to be transferred to a nursing home for his rehabilitation.
Xu Xiyan immediately searched for the major nursing homes in Peijing on her mobile phone, checking which one would be the most suitable.
Mrs. Dong also helped out by giving her a suggestion. “Miss Jing Xi, I know a very good nursing home where I used to care for an elderly person. The sanitary conditions, environment, and location are quite good. Transportation is convenient, too.”
“Really? Which nursing home is that?” As long Xu Xiyan could give her grandfather a comfortable life, she was willing to pay, no matter how much it costed.
“Peijing Yunrui Nursing Home.”
“Oh, I know that one, but I heard that they don’t accept ordinary patients. They have a very high criterion.”
Xu Xiyan knew that the Yunrui Nursing Home was indeed good in all aspects. But she had also heard that they only accepted important government officials or people with social status.
Ordinary people could only stand outside the place and look, but to go in and live inside there was close to impossible. So when Xu Xiyan was reviewing the nursing homes, the first thing she did was cross out Yunrui.
“It doesn’t matter. I’m close to the manager and I can ask him to admit your grandfather,” Mrs. Dong said.
“Is it really all right? Wouldn’t you be owing them a favor?” Xu Xiyan said uneasily.
“It’s really okay. They are a business, after all, and there’s really no reason for them to reject a patient. I will call them now to see whether it could be done.”
Mrs. Dong was very enthusiastic as she went off to call the nursing home. A few minutes later, she came back joyfully to tell Xu Xiyan the news, “Yes, they can take in your grandfather. They have a vacant room now and you can send your grandfather there anytime.”
“That’s great! Thank you so much, Mrs. Dong.”
The next day, after finally settling on a nursing home, Xu Xiyan proceeded to settle her grandfather’s discharge procedures and send him to the Yunrui Nursing Home.
