Chapter 47: Discharged from Hospital in 47 Chapters
With the doctor’s word, Lu Xiaoting, who couldn’t stay in bed, didn’t want to stay any longer.
Just worrying about how to get back, as soon as he left the hospital, he saw an old man driving a horse carriage passing by, and Susu immediately chased after him.
“Old man, old man.”
“Old man driving the carriage, wait a moment~”
“Hmm~”
The old man stopped the carriage by the roadside, puzzled, “What’s the matter, girl?”
“This is the situation, my husband is discharged from the hospital today. I’ll give you one yuan if you could please take us back in your carriage.”
“Sure, sure, sure, why not.”
As soon as the old man heard it, he agreed without even asking for the address.
“Girl, go call your people. I’ll drive the carriage to the front of the hospital and wait for you.”
“Ah, thanks a lot, old man.”
Susu hurried back to the ward, where Brother Lu was supporting Lu Xiaoting, with Lu Huaisen and Susu carrying things like warm pots and washbasins.
…
Jiang Nan’s sister-in-law Wang Zhaodi rolled her eyes. This elder sister-in-law came back only to freeload and do nothing all day, always ordering people around.
Lazy and gluttonous, she’s just unbearable!
“Look at you, I’m busy spinning around every day, and you still only cause trouble for me. My life is so hard, serving the old and attending to the young, damn it’s like being cursed for eight lifetimes.”
“Eat, eat, eat; sleep, sleep, sleep; what else do you know besides eating?”
Jiang Nan rolled over, sat up, and glared. She hadn’t been back long, and this Wang Zhaodi was always slamming and thrashing about, squeezing her with words inside and out every day.

“Wang Zhaodi, who are you showing your cursing to? If you want to scold me, have the guts to do it to my face, don’t just mumble about it.”
Wang Zhaodi rolled her eyes and put her hands on her hips.
“Oh my, elder sister, what are you talking about? I’m just disciplining my child, don’t misunderstand. Besides, I wouldn’t dare to scold you.”
Looking at the shameless Wang Zhaodi, Jiang Nan’s chest heaved up and down with anger, and she fiercely slapped the kang.
Just as things were about even, Jiang’s mother, who had been pretending not to hear, finally spoke up, scolding her daughter-in-law and then earnestly advising her own daughter.
“We all depend on your brother-in-law for support; your job doesn’t earn much money. What if you make your brother-in-law unhappy?”
“He wouldn’t dare!” Jiang Nan glared.
“Look how long you’ve been back, and brother-in-law hasn’t even visited once. Maybe he’s annoyed, also…”
Listening to her mother go on and on, Jiang Nan became increasingly anxious, but still retorted stubbornly.
“Enough, stop nagging, it’s giving me a headache. Huai Ze isn’t like that.”
Jiang’s mother pouted, still trying to cajole her daughter.
Watching their elder sister hurry off, Wang Zhaodi rolled her eyes and pinched her husband.
“My dear, it hurts, don’t be angry, don’t be angry, we still need to rely on my elder sister and brother-in-law.”
“Hmph, if it weren’t for that, I would have slapped her long ago.”
…
“Hey, is Lu Gong’an back?”
“How is Lu Gong’an?”
People at the Family Court were all concerned, gathering around one by one.
Some timid women covered their chests, looking a bit frightened.
Susu gave the old man driving the carriage one yuan, exchanged a few simple pleasantries with the crowd, and then went upstairs.
After settling in, Brother Lu and the third brother said they wanted to go back.
Susu hurriedly gave each of them a bag of brown sugar and a jar of malted milk, afraid they would refuse, she said.
“These were given by family members or people from the Family Court, we can’t finish them at home.”
The brothers saw there was quite a lot and didn’t decline.
“Sister-in-law, once I get off work in the afternoon, I’ll come back to pick up Xiao Yu and Xiao Xue.”
“Okay, I’ll wait at home with the kids, Brother, just come directly.”
After sending off the Lu brothers, Susu wasn’t idle.
Mrs. Lu said a word and then took the basket to go out for groceries.
Susu pointed at the candy eggs piled on the cabinet, which everyone from the Family Court had brought over one after another since Lu Xiaoting was hospitalized.
“I’ve remembered them all, so we can return the favors later.”
Lu Xiaoting nodded, “I’ll listen to whatever my wife says.”
Susu was stunned for a moment, wondering what he meant by suddenly agreeing to everything she said.
When their eyes met, an unusual sparkle appeared in the man’s black pupils, and she heard his voice.
“Thank you, wife, for your hard work during this time.”
Susu felt her cheeks start to heat involuntarily as the man kept calling her wife.
She coughed, “Well, it’s good you know.”
Lu Xiaoting smiled slyly, his thin lips parting slightly, “From now on, I’ll listen to whatever my wife says.”
Susu glared, thinking when had this man become so smooth with words.
Caught by his intense gaze, Susu thought to herself—what a charming man!
Lu Xiaoting raised his eyebrows, mimicking his wife’s usual manner, and blinked, “Wife?”
Susu, feeling her heart nearly leap to her throat, covered his compelling eyes with her hand.
Her voice shaking, she said, “Don’t seduce people.”
“Hehe…”
The man’s deep, magnetic laughter exploded in her ear, and, embarassed and annoyed, Susu moved her hand from his eyes to cover his lips.
Blushing, she warned, “No laughing, no laughing.”
The next second, a cool sensation spread from her hand, startling Susu to pull her hands back behind her.
Incredulously stuttering, she started, “You-you-you… why did you kiss…”
Lu Xiaoting raised his eyebrows, his eyes smiling, “Can’t I kiss my own wife?”
Susu glared. Was this the same reserved Lu Gong’an?
“Squeak—”
When Mrs. Lu entered the house carrying a basket of vegetables and meat, her face was cheerful, “Look at me—”
“What’s the matter here?”
Seeing her daughter-in-law’s puffed cheeks, Mrs. Lu looked at her son.
“It’s nothing, mom, please start cooking. Your daughter-in-law was just saying her stomach was growling.”
Mrs. Lu looked left and right, and seeing her daughter-in-law nod, she skeptically went to cook. Before she left, she warned the second son not to upset Susu.
With her mother-in-law’s support, Susu proudly tilted her chin, snorted, and ignored the man.
Lu Xiaoting couldn’t help but smile wryly.
…
Having learned from the neighbor’s aunt that the two sisters were taken away by their mother-in-law, Jiang Nan pouted and muttered quietly in discontent.
And since she didn’t bring the house keys and didn’t want to be laughed at by others, Jiang Nan simply ran straight to the factory.
“Nannan?”
As soon as she got off the bus, Brother Lu saw his wife, whom he hadn’t seen for several days, and happily caught up to her.
Jiang Nan kept her head low, feeling a bit sullen, and afraid the man would argue with her again.
Brother Lu sighed, took the initiative, and lowered his head, “Wife, why did you only just come back? The kids and I missed you.”
Hearing this, Jiang Nan pursed her lips and glared at him annoyed.
With a tone full of grievance, she complained, “Hmph! All you do is deceive. You didn’t come to find me for such a long time.”
Brother Lu felt helpless, having run back and forth between the factory and the hospital recently, and not having taken care of the two kids.
Jiang Nan was coaxed by the man for quite a while and eventually cracked a smile, playfully swaying.
“You’re annoying.”
“I’m annoying, I’m annoying.”
Brother Lu breathed a sigh of relief, sent her back home, then rushed back to the factory hurriedly.
