Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 785

Chapter 785: Li Shu’s Wish ( 1 )
After hearing Lu Jueyu’s words, Su Jian reached out and picked up the jujube cake and said, “Then I won’t be polite with you. Thank you, sister-in-law.”

Before his parents could stop him, he took a bite and hummed with satisfaction before saying, “Mhmm, it’s so delicious! Sister-in-law, you have really good cooking skills!”

Hearing her brother’s words, Su Lanying was curious and reached for the raisin biscuits. She took a bite and tasted the sweetness of sugar and the sourness of raisins. Her eyes sparkled as she ate.

The more she eats, the tastier the cookies become. The taste of milk and eggs is evident. Although she could taste the oil, the cookies were not greasy at all. Before she knew it, she had finished one cookie.

When she reached for the jujube cake, Meng Qiaoping reminded her in a low voice, “Ah Ying, didn’t you say you were full when we had breakfast?”

After hearing her mother’s words, Su Lanying stopped her hand halfway and took it back.

Seeing this, Lu Jueyu said, “Aunt Qiaoping, I steamed too many jujube cakes and my family can’t finish them. Since Sister Lanying likes them, I will pack some for her to take back later.”

“How can we do this?” Meng Qiaoping said a little embarrassed.

“Just think of it as a gift to my new neighbor. I just hope you don’t dislike it,” Lu Jueyu said with a smile.

Since he was here to build a good relationship, Su Lide said, “Then we won’t refuse. Thank you, niece.”

As they chat over snacks, they get to know about each other’s family situation. After sitting for half an hour, Su Lide’s family left and went to visit Aunt Li.

Including them, there were only four families on the outskirts of the village. Therefore, their relationship was simple.

Meanwhile, in the county hospital, Li Shu was having breakfast with her grandfather when Song Yan came in for a morning routine.

After entering the ward, he walked straight to Li Shu’s bed and saw her eating happily. Seeing her eating with gusto, a smile appeared on his face.

“Good morning, Teacher, Xiao Shu,” he said.

Doctor Xie nodded to him, wiped his mouth, and said, “Xiao Yan, it’s been twelve days since Xiao Shu’s surgery. Help me do a test to check her condition and whether she can be discharged from the hospital.”

Song Yan was stunned when he heard his teacher’s words. Generally speaking, it takes at least a month for patients who undergo major surgery to be discharged from the hospital. Yet in less than two weeks, his teacher is going to take her back.

Thinking of this, he said, “Teacher, I think it would be better for Xiao Shu to stay for another two weeks, and then we can talk about discharge.”

Doctor Xie glanced at him and said, “I don’t have that much money. You should check her condition first and see the results.”

“If you don’t have that much money, then I will pay for the hospitalization expenses,” Song Yan said after hearing what the teacher said.

When everyone heard this, they all looked at him in surprise. Even Li Shu couldn’t help but look at him with surprise in her eyes.

“You don’t have to worry about this. Just go and register Xiao Shu for the test,” Doctor Xie said with obvious displeasure in his tone.

Song Yan still wanted to persuade him, but when he saw that his teacher was frowning at him, he could only sigh and said to the young doctor who followed him, “Arrange an examination for Xiao Shu.”

“Yes, Doctor Song,” the young doctor nodded and glanced at Doctor Xie.

Everyone knows how stubborn Doctor Song is, but in front of this old man, he is like a little baby. This old man is much more stubborn!

Everyone thought Doctor Xie wanted to take Li Shu back because he was short of money, but only he knew how curious he was about his granddaughter’s condition.

Five days had passed since he fed his granddaughter ginseng powder for the first time. After she drank the ginseng powder water every day, he could clearly see the changes in his granddaughter’s condition with his naked eyes.

Even though she looked better, he couldn’t rest assured until he was sure her sickle cell anemia could be cured. That’s why he insisted on her getting tested.

Seeing that his teacher was distracted by his own thoughts, Song Yan approached Li Shu and checked Li Shu’s chest with a stethoscope. After a while, he said in a low voice, “Xiao Shu, take a deep breath and let it out slowly.”

After hearing his words, Li Shu did as he asked. At this moment, because the distance was so close, she could clearly see how long his eyelashes were.

Although she didn’t understand the relationship between men and women, she knew that the man in front of her was a good-looking man.

Thinking of the conversations she heard among the nurses before, she finally understood why they said he was a good catch. Compared with women, Song Yan is indeed not inferior at all in appearance.

If he wore makeup, he might be more beautiful than a woman. She couldn’t help but giggle at the thought of him in a dress and makeup.

Hearing her sudden laughs, Song Yan was stunned. When he raised his eyes, he saw her giggling to herself. He was amused by her, flicked her forehead lightly, and said, “What are you laughing at?”

Feeling a slight pain in her forehead, Li Shu stopped laughing, shook her head, and said, “It’s nothing.”

Knowing that she was unwilling to tell him, Song Yan did not insist, and said, “Your condition is better than I thought. You no longer have difficulty breathing. It seems that it is indeed time to do another test on you.”

After speaking, he looked at his teacher and said, “Teacher, I’m sorry, I doubted you. I still lack experience.”
