Chapter 159: Teach Her a Lesson
Early the next morning, Jiang Xue finished breakfast, said a word to her in-laws, and went back to her parents’ home. She wanted to tell her parents about taking her father to the city to see the doctor next Monday.
Fortunately, it’s only Tuesday now, and there are still several days until next Monday. There is still time to pack up things at home or make necessary arrangements.
When she arrived at Jiang Family Village, it wasn’t even eight o’clock yet. Normally, at this time, everyone should be at home having breakfast. But the Jiang Family’s house was tightly shut, and the courtyard gate was locked.
Seeing the big lock on the door, Jiang Xue’s heart sank suddenly. Father Jiang shouldn’t have gone to the fields for work because he’s ill, so the main gate shouldn’t be locked.
But now, there was only one possibility, which was that her father was sick again and had gone to the hospital.
Last time she was here, Little Fox clearly said that her father’s illness shouldn’t relapse during this period. But how come after just a few days, he’s gone to the hospital again?
Thinking of this, Jiang Xue went to knock on the door of their neighbor, Uncle Jiang’s house. Father Jiang has three brothers; he is the second, with an elder brother and a younger brother.
Uncle Jiang and Father Jiang’s houses were connected together, while Uncle Jiang’s younger brother lived a bit farther away.
The door to Uncle Jiang’s house opened, and it was Aunt Jiang who came out. She seemed surprised to see Jiang Xue and asked, "Little Xue, what brings you here?"
"Aunt, I came back to see my parents. But they’re not home, and I don’t know where they’ve gone?"
"Looking for your parents, are you? They’ve gone to the hospital and have been there for several days already."
"What? Didn’t my dad just return not long ago? How come he’s gone to the hospital again?"
