413 Severing Their Former Fate 3
There was no need to report. The guard seemed to know them.
Madam Zhao and Su Sanlang were surprised.
They followed the guard in. Not long after, they saw Qi Xingfeng practicing boxing. When he saw Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao, Qi Xingfeng immediately shouted in surprise, “Aunt, uncle, you’re here to see me.”
Qi Xingfeng retracted his fist and quickly ran to Madam Zhao’s side. He held her arm and said happily, “Aunt, you came at the right time. Great-grandfather will definitely faint from joy when he sees you.”
After saying that, Qi Xingfeng slapped himself in the mouth again. Then, he spat repeatedly. “Pft, pft, pft. I shouldn’t say that.”
Madam Zhao laughed and said, “You didn’t mean it. Don’t worry.”
Qi Xingfeng was careless and spoke too carelessly.
Father Qi and Mother Qi were both there. Qi Xingfeng brought Madam Zhao and Su Sanlang over. Father Qi stood up excitedly. Before he could say anything, he held his waist and cried out in pain. “Aiyo, my old waist—”
Mother Qi hurriedly supported him and said with concern, “You sprained your waist, right? Take it slow. What’s the hurry?”
“Cousin, Cousin-in-law, you’re here. I was too excited. Take a seat.”
Father Qi rubbed his waist as he spoke. Seeing Madam Zhao looking at him worriedly, he quickly said, “I’m fine. It’s an old injury. As long as I don’t run or jump, there’s no problem. I accidentally sprained it just now, it’s fine.”
Madam Zhao smiled and said gently, “My Xiaolu studies medicine. I’ll get her to take a look at you tomorrow. Xiaolu’s medical skills are very good.”
Father Qi nodded. “Sure, sure.”
“Aunt, Xiaolu knows medicine too. She’s so good at martial arts, and she still has time to learn medicine? She’s too amazing.”
Qi Xingfeng was extremely surprised. When he saw Su Xiaolu and Su Chong’s martial arts that day, he was extremely shocked. He did not expect Xiaolu to know medicine too.
Father Qi looked at Qi Xingfeng in disdain and said, “Do you think everyone is like you and can only learn one thing? Look at your cousin Su Chong. Not only is he good at martial arts, but he’s also knowledgeable.”
Qi Xingfeng scratched his head in embarrassment. He really admired his cousins.
After Father Qi finished talking about his son in disdain, he smiled and said to Madam Zhao and Su Sanlang, “Fortunately, you don’t have such a child. Otherwise, you would all be so angry that you would live a few years less.”
Madam Zhao smiled and said, “Of course not. Xingfeng is straightforward, broad-minded, and kind. He’s a rare good child.”
Su Sanlang also smiled and echoed, “Yes, he looks like a filial child.”
Father Qi and Mother Qi were naturally happy that their child was praised.
Qi Xingfeng was also in high spirits. He smiled and said, “Aunt, uncle, have a seat and have some tea first. I’ll call my great-grandfather and Xingzhi over. Xingzhi is playing chess with great-grandfather.”
“Go, go.”
Father Qi waved his hand.
Madam Zhao was a little nervous. She did not know why, but she felt inexplicably nervous.
Father Qi could tell. He smiled and said, “Cousin, you don’t have to be nervous. Grandpa has always treated you very well. It’s better than anything that you are safe. A few days ago, we also told him about you, and he had been waiting for you to visit him. If it wasn’t for Xingzhi’s persuasion these few days, he wouldn’t have been able to help but visit you.”
“Grandfather’s personality is the same as Xingfeng’s. If it weren’t for Xingzhi, we really wouldn’t have been able to persuade him.”
Father Qi sighed. All the men in the Qi family were energetic. Only Qi Xingzhi was calm and composed.
When General Qi found out that his granddaughter had returned to the capital alive, he was so excited that he wanted to visit her, but Qi Xingzhi stopped him.
He patiently listened to the whole story. However, his two great-grandsons were going to participate in the examination, so he couldn’t be distracted at this time. He endured his temper and waited. However, when the examination was over, he definitely couldn’t be stopped.
Over the past few days, it was Qi Xingzhi who played chess with General Qi and talked about the Su family’s past to calm General Qi down.
Madam Zhao smiled. Just listening to him made her heart warm.
Mother Qi asked about Madam Zhao’s life all these years. When the two of them chatted, Madam Zhao was not as restrained as when she came.
At this moment, Qi Xingfeng rushed into the bamboo garden where General Qi lived.
“Great-grandfather, Xingzhi, good news, good news.”
Before Qi Xingfeng entered the house, his voice was heard.
General Qi, who was in the room, rubbed his ears and looked at Qi Xingzhi, who was smiling without saying anything. He muttered, “If only Xingfeng was half as calm as you are. The entire family’s brains are held by you.”
Qi Xingzhi grinned, revealing his white teeth. “Thank you for your praise.”
The moment Qi Xingfeng opened the door, he smiled and said, “Great-grandfather, Xingzhi, Aunt and Uncle are here.”
General Qi’s expression changed. He stood up excitedly. “What? What did you just say?”
Qi Xingzhi’s expression also changed. “Brother, you said that Aunt and Uncle are here?”
Qi Xingfeng nodded heavily. “Yes, they’re talking to our parents in the main courtyard.”
General Qi said excitedly, “Then what are we waiting for? Hurry up and go over.”
Qi Xingzhi asked Qi Xingfeng, “Are Xiaolu and Xiaoling here?”
Qi Xingfeng shook his head. “No. Aunt and Uncle came together.”
General Qi was not in the mood to listen to this. He only wanted to see them now. He immediately left.
However, Qi Xingzhi muttered to himself thoughtfully, “Only they came. What does this mean? Why didn’t they wait until Eldest Cousin and Second Cousin finished their exams? Moreover, Xiaoling and Xiaolu didn’t come either. It’s strange.”
Qi Xingfeng pulled Qi Xingzhi to chase after General Qi. He said, “Don’t mumble at this time. It’s just Aunt and Uncle coming to visit. What’s so strange about it?”
Qi Xingzhi was pulled away, but he was still determined that something was wrong.
They arrived at the main room of the main courtyard.
As soon as General Qi entered and saw Madam Zhao sitting there, he suddenly paused.
Father Qi and Mother Qi also stopped talking. Father Qi saw that the agitated General Qi was a little worried and hurriedly stood up to support him. “Grandfather, don’t be agitated.”
General Qi pushed Father Qi away and said, “Get lost. I know my own body.”
Madam Zhao looked at General Qi and her heart ached. She said softly, “General Qi.”
“Why are you calling me old general? Call me grandpa. That’s what you called me when you were young. Don’t talk to me about amnesia. Even if you have amnesia, you have to call me grandpa. This can’t be changed.”
General Qi said solemnly as he walked towards Madam Zhao. He walked up to her and looked at her before saying, “I’ve often looked at your portrait these past few days, but it’s not as good as the real you. Don’t say anything else. It’s good that you’re back home.”
“Kid, you have to thank Xingzhi for telling me that you treat my granddaughter well. Otherwise, if I saw you today, I would break one of your legs.”
General Qi patted Su Sanlang’s shoulder solemnly.
“Thank you, Grandpa,” Su Sanlang said gratefully. He looked at General Qi seriously and said, “Grandpa, don’t worry. I’ll definitely treat Mianmian well.”
