Chapter 993: Better Than Her Own Family
After knocking on the door, Mother Pan and Mother Xiao entered the ward. Looking at the room, it was a four-person room. Besides Mu Zigu, three other patients were inside.

When they saw Mother Xiao and Mother Pan, the other patients and their families observed them with curiosity.

Not only were both women dressed better than the others, but they also carried a lot of items. Just based on this, the others knew that these women were well-off.

Although both Mother Xiao and Mother Pan noticed the stares, they pretended not to and ignored them. They walked towards the bed near the window and saw Xiao Yiqing sleeping, leaning against the bed while sitting in a chair.

Seeing her sleeping while holding her husband’s hands, Mother Xiao felt pain in her heart. Her daughter had been pampered by her family since birth, yet after growing up, she was disowned by her grandfather and suffered like this.

When she found out about her husband’s injury, she must have been frightened.

Noticing her friend’s expression, Mother Pan patted her hand to offer comfort but said nothing.

The sound they made while placing the bags down woke Xiao Yiqing. When she opened her eyes, she saw her mother and Mother Pan.

In an instant, she threw herself into her mother’s arms and said, “Mother, I miss you so much.”

Mother Xiao gently patted her daughter’s back and replied, “Mother misses you too.”

After the mother and daughter hugged for a while, Mother Xiao held her daughter’s shoulders and checked her over, asking, “Qingqing, why are you getting thinner? Did your husband treat you badly?”

Hearing this, Xiao Yiqing shook her head and said, “Mother, my husband treats me very well. I’m just worried and haven’t had much of an appetite lately.”

Mother Xiao sighed and said, “Even if you worry about your husband, you should take good care of yourself. If you fall sick too, then who will take care of him?”

Xiao Yiqing smiled and nodded, “I will listen to my mother and take good care of myself.”

Mother Xiao was satisfied with her daughter’s response and turned to look at her son-in-law. “How is Zigu?”

“My husband just fell asleep after having his lunch and taking his medicine. The doctor said that there are no problems with his injuries, but he lost a lot of blood and needs to recuperate for at least two months before he can fully recover,” Xiao Yiqing explained.

“Qingqing, you should give him these. Jiajia’s fiancé sent a lot of good things that we can’t finish, so Aunt Pan brought them for you and your husband,” Mother Pan said.

Only after hearing Mother Pan’s words did Xiao Yiqing realize why her mother and Mother Pan had brought so many items.

“Aunt Pan, you shouldn’t have brought so much. Save it for Uncle Pan,Brother Chiyan and Brother Chimu,” she said, feeling embarrassed.

Mother Pan waved her hands and replied, “It’s okay. You are like my own daughter. When your husband was injured, how could I do nothing?”

Knowing it was futile to argue with Mother Pan, who had made up her mind, Xiao Yiqing appreciated her kindness and said, “Thank you, Aunt Pan.”

Since they had brought so many items, Xiao Yiqing pulled the curtain to block the gaze of the other patients and their families. With the curtain drawn around them, she looked at the items taken out by Mother Pan with surprise.

Although the Pan family had better living conditions than others, they weren’t at the point where they could indulge in so many nourishing things.

“Aunt Pan, this—”

Mother Pan placed the wolfberries, red dates, longan, black beans, spinach, raisins, millet powder, and lotus root powder on the cabinet beside the bed while saying, “These were sent by Jiajia’s fiancé and his family. Ah Yun went to the mountains and found these. He often sends them to us to nourish my husband and me.”

When Mother Xiao heard this, she said, “Aifang, you are so blessed! Your son-in-law treats you and your husband so well.”

“Well, as long as he treats Jiajia well, I’m satisfied,” Mother Pan said with a smile.

Thinking about the Li family’s brothers, Xiao Yiqing smiled and said, “Aunt Pan, don’t worry. The sons of the Li family are known for their loyalty to their spouses. They are also very capable and handsome.”

“What’s more, Uncle Li is a benevolent and kind man. He is very understanding toward his sons and daughters-in-law. There won’t be conflicts between sisters-in-law either. I’m sure Jiajia will be happy after marrying into the Li family.”

Hearing her words, Mother Pan sighed in relief and said, “It’s good as long as there are no conflicts with the sisters-in-law.”

Recalling the items in her pocket, Mother Pan pulled Xiao Yiqing’s hand and said in a low voice, “Qingqing, Aunt has something special here that can help your husband recover faster. But you must not tell anyone about it.”

Seeing how serious Mother Pan was, Xiao Yiqing nodded and said, “Aunt, such a good thing should be kept for yourself.”

Mother Pan took out the small bottle and two jars from her pocket and placed them in Xiao Yiqing’s hands, saying, “These are ginseng powder, wound ointment, and scar removal cream. Just take them. Aunt still has plenty at home.”

When Xiao Yiqing saw the items, her eyes widened in surprise. She looked at Mother Pan and asked, “Aunt Pan, are these made by Jueyu?”

Mother Pan nodded and said, “Aunt and your Uncle have already tried them out, and they work wonders. So, you can use them with confidence.”

Xiao Yiqing glanced at her husband and hesitated for a moment before finally accepting the items. “Thank you, Aunt Pan. I will definitely return this favor.”

“We are family, don’t be too polite with me,” Mother Pan said with a smile as she patted her hands.

Seeing how generous her friend was, Mother Xiao felt grateful. Compared to the Zhao family and the Xiao family, the Pan family treated her and her family better.
