Rebirth 78, the beginning of the marriage was broken off by the female educated youth

Chapter 1857 Shock! What brings you here?!

Li Xiangnan, along with Song Yi, Wang Defa, and others, returned empty-handed, dragging their weary and heavy steps back to the inpatient department.

As a result, from a distance, he saw his mother, Zhu Qiuju, his grandmother-in-law, Jiang Guiying, and Grandma Song still anxiously waiting in the third-floor corridor, their faces filled with worry and doubt.

Li Xiangnan quickly led the group upstairs.

"Nan Nan, how is it? Have you found him?" Zhu Qiuju ran over with great concern.

Li Xiangnan shook his head, sweat trickling down his temples. He was panting heavily, his tone filled with the same doubt, "We couldn't find him. It's like the child vanished into thin air. We've searched the area around the hospital several times, but we just couldn't find him!"

Jiang Guiying frowned, her gaze deep. "It seems the other party was prepared. They probably knew you would be looking for someone, so they deliberately sent a child to deliver the flowers. He's agile and small, so he can just disappear anywhere and you won't be able to find him after he leaves!"

Yu Jingran nodded slightly, his gaze deep and thoughtful. "Being so cautious in your actions, it seems you don't want to know your whereabouts, which further proves that this flower is not simple! Xiang Nan, so many years have passed, it seems that Mu Huanrong is no longer the little girl she used to be. She has probably been observing you from the shadows since she came to Yanjing!"

Yu Jingran was the only one among the elders who had actually met Mu Huanrong in real life.

Her words sent a chill down the spines of everyone present.

Li Xiangnan took a deep breath to calm his surging emotions: "Mom, Grandma, it's hard to say right now. I need to investigate further. We have to keep this under wraps, especially not tell Ruobai. She just gave birth and is still weak; she can't afford any emotional fluctuations!"

Zhu Qiuju nodded repeatedly, squeezing her son's hand tightly. "You're right, we can't tell Ruobai. She's still in her postpartum period, we can't let her worry about this! We'll just pretend we don't know anything about it!"

Even though she said that, the worry in her eyes still lingered.

Jiang Guiying agreed, saying, "No matter what, the most important thing right now is Ruobai and the child. As for Mu Huanrong... since she dared to send flowers, there must be some clues. Xiang Nan, you need to keep that in mind and be careful!"

“I know, Grandma!” Li Xiangnan solemnly replied, glancing at the three elders and forcing a relaxed smile: “Let’s go upstairs! Let’s pretend this never happened!”

The group reached a tacit understanding, temporarily suppressing their suspicions about Mu Huanrong, adjusting their mood and expressions as if the chase and tension had never happened, before walking together towards the private ward.

Li Xiangnan gently pushed open the door to the ward, and warm sunlight and the faint fragrance of crabapple blossoms rushed in.

Qin Ruobai was leaning against the headboard, her face glowing with the gentle warmth of a new mother, while Tang Qingshuang's maternal grandmother, sitting beside the bed, was carefully holding her great-granddaughter, her eyes full of happy smiles.

"Xiang Nan? Where have you been? I haven't seen you for ages!" Qin Ruobai asked softly, her gaze sweeping over the sweat on his forehead with some confusion.

"Hey, they delivered so much stuff yesterday, so Defa Zimo and I helped carry it all to the car!" Li Xiangnan walked naturally to the window, shook her hand, and asked with a smile, "The little one's awake?"

However, as soon as he finished speaking, his attention was diverted to the strange thing at the door.

She had been inside for several seconds, but her mother and the others remained silent. Turning her head, she saw that her mother, Grandma Jiang, and Grandma Yu were all stunned, their eyes fixed on Tang Qingshuang, who was holding the child, with shock.

"Her maternal grandmother...you, what are you doing here?" Zhu Qiuju exclaimed in a low voice.

Jiang Guiying's eyes widened in surprise. "In-law, when did you arrive in Yanjing? Why didn't you let us know?"

Even Yu Jingran, who was well-informed, showed obvious surprise on his face.

No wonder the three elderly people were so shocked.

The distance between southern Hunan and Beijing is vast and difficult to traverse. In an era when transportation was extremely underdeveloped, it was certainly unusual for an elderly man to suddenly appear here after traveling thousands of miles.

Tang Qingshuang looked up at the sound and saw the three people at the door. She smiled kindly and greeted them in her thick local accent.

"Qiuju is here, Guiying is here too! Oh, and who is this...?"

Her gaze fell on Yu Jingran.

Li Xiangnan quickly introduced, "Grandma, this is Song Yi's grandma, Yu Jingran's grandma! Ruobai is just like her own granddaughter!"

Yu Jingran stepped forward with a smile and warmly shook Tang Qingshuang's hand. "Big sister, I'm Yu Jingran! Your arrival is such a pleasant surprise! How did you get here?"

After exchanging greetings, Tang Qingshuang smiled nonchalantly, as if visiting her little granddaughter was just an ordinary thing.

"Her uncle, Chonglou, drove here. We received a call from Xiangnan saying that Baiwa was about to give birth, so we drove all the way here! We drove for a whole day and night without daring to stop, and we didn't arrive until the early hours of the morning. Chonglou went to sleep!"

I drove for a whole day and night without stopping!

These words shocked Zhu Qiuju, Jiang Guiying, and Yu Jingran.

They were all people who had lived through the old era and knew how difficult it was to travel. They could easily imagine what a bumpy, tiring, and nerve-wracking journey it must have been.

In order to see her granddaughter and newborn great-granddaughter as soon as possible, this elderly grandmother actually crossed thousands of miles in this way!

The Bai family is indeed a family with courage, spirit, and love!

Zhu Qiuju's eyes instantly reddened. She stepped forward and grasped Tang Qingshuang's hand, choking back tears as she said, "Grandma...you've really gone through so much...you've traveled all this way and you've been busy taking care of Ruobai right away. You should at least go and rest!"

Jiang Guiying was also deeply moved, her heart choked with emotion. "My dear in-law, your kindness... Ruobai, Xiangnan, and this child are truly blessed!"

Looking at the weathered yet resilient face, Yu Jingran's eyes were filled with admiration: "Big sister, your affection is more precious than gold. This is true kinship, which cannot be stopped by any hardship!"

In the ward, several elderly people held hands tightly together.

Before long, Zhu Qiuju and Jiang Guiying surrounded Tang Qingshuang, asking her with concern if she was tired, if she had eaten breakfast, if she was cold on the train at night, and if they would arrange accommodation for her right away.

Yu Jingran also greeted them warmly from the side.

Their words were devoid of flowery language, containing only the most genuine care and heartfelt emotion.

This kinship, tempered by time and transcending geographical barriers, appears especially strong at this moment, filled with the warmth and power of everyday life.

As Qin Ruobai watched this scene, tears welled up in her eyes again, but this time they were tears of happiness and emotion.

"Don't cry, it's tough on your body during postpartum confinement!"

Li Xiangnan stood by the bed, embracing his wife. Looking at the four elders who were most important to him and Ruobai gathered together, a warm feeling welled up in his heart, temporarily dispelling the gloom brought by Mu Huanrong.

However, I still feel a little regretful.

Grandma, if you were here, how wonderful it would be to have such a happy family and such warmth!

Grandma, where are you?

Ruobai and I have had our child. Do you know that?
