Chapter 103 - 101: I Don’t Deserve This ’Number 1’ from You
——————
"Indeed. Mom, a small illness is easier to treat if caught early. How about I take you to the county town for a check-up tomorrow? It just so happens that our son-in-law got promoted and has moved into the county town. We could visit our eldest daughter’s place at noon, and get to know the way." Xie Tiesheng thought it over. He could no longer ignore his wife’s frequent clutching at her chest.
They say the body is the most honest thing; it only shows discomfort through occasional, involuntary movements. Such gestures more accurately indicate where someone is feeling unwell...
As the bedfellow of Zhou Xiuhua, Xie Tiesheng was all too familiar with her small gestures. These movements had become routine over the past two years, but in the last three months, they had become more pronounced and frequent.
Having worked hard for the family her entire life, Xie Tiesheng appreciated his old wife and was deeply concerned about her increasingly unstable condition. When Zhang Shanni hinted at this, he pushed aside his worries and coaxed his wife with kind words.
"Let’s go, I don’t need to see a doctor. Just to avoid wasting money frivolously. The main thing is, our son-in-law got promoted and took Da Niu and the kids to the county town. I wonder if they’re settled in yet? It coincidentally happened when San’er was getting married, so we didn’t have the time to help out... I don’t even know if our dear grandchildren were upset~~"
As soon as Zhou Xiuhua heard her husband mention their eldest daughter, her heart, which had been preoccupied with San’er’s wedding banquet, warmed at the thought of visiting her. Her husband’s mention reminded her of her daughter.
It just so happened that right after San’er’s banquet, they received news that their son-in-law was promoted due to his work capabilities and the whole family was moving to the county town... Zhou Xiuhua was overjoyed!
