After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!
Chapter 1307 - 1307 Partially Paralyzed1307 Partially Paralyzed
After the doctor examined Liang Shu, he found out that she had suffered a stroke and was now partially paralyzed. She could no longer speak properly and it was very likely that she would lose control of her bowels in the future. The family would need to find a caregiver to take care of her.
Liang Lan and Liang Guo were stunned when they heard the diagnosis. They did not expect it to be so serious. Liang Shu already had very serious hypertension and was taking medicine to control it. Although she might faint whenever she got too agitated, she would usually be fine after she recovered consciousness. They did not expect her to become seriously ill this time round.
Liang Lan’s husband, Xiao Jing, and Liang Guo’s wife, Bai Ming, were also sitting outside Liang Shu’s ward. The four of them gathered to discuss and come up with a solution.
“I still need to go to work! I don’t have time to take care of Mother. My superior is about to promote me! I can’t let anything affect my work at this point in time,” Xiao Jing said quickly.
Bai Ming also chimed in, “That’s right, I have a job too. My workplace doesn’t allow me to take leave!”
Liang Guo and Liang Lan also came up with reasons to decline. None of them wanted to wait on Liang Shu. They all blamed Liang Shu for being too arrogant today. The only reason why they could all keep their jobs until now was because of their link to the Xia family. After the commotion at Qiao Mei’s house today, everyone would know that they had not actually reconciled with Qiao Qiang.
They might not even be able to keep their jobs anymore! Where would they get the money to treat Liang Shu’s illness?
“Elder Brother, Mother dotes on you the most. Why don’t you make the arrangements for someone to take care of her? I still have to look after my own family! Besides, I’m a daughter who has already gotten married and has nothing much to do with the Liang family anymore,” Liang Lan said.
“Aren’t you Mother’s flesh and blood too? What do you mean by saying you have nothing to do with the Liang family anymore? Isn’t it the Liang family who has given you everything you have now?” Liang Guo said in disbelief.
“Mother doesn’t even ask me to go home for any festive celebrations. My daughter isn’t treated very kindly at her house either. On the contrary, you’re the one who benefits in every way, so of course you have to be the one who takes care of Mother when she’s sick. I still have to go back and pick Xiao Yu up from school. Elder Brother, please take good care of Mother.” After saying that, Liang Lan grabbed Xiao Jing and left without even looking at Liang Guo.
Bai Ming sat at one side and pretended not to hear anything, as if this matter had nothing to do with her. Back then, it was Liang Shu who forced her to get married to Liang Guo as Liang Shu had taken a fancy to the Bai family and how influential they were.
Even though Bai Ming was already engaged to someone else, Liang Shu simply just ignored the fact. Bai Ming hated the Liang family to the core and there was no way she would take care of Liang Shu! It was already good enough that she did not kill Liang Shu herself.
“You can stay here by yourself. I’m going home to play mahjong,” Bai Ming said nonchalantly.
Liang Guo did not even look at Liang Shu. He simply paid a sum of money and left the hospital. As long as they gave enough money, the hospital would do their best to keep Liang Shu alive. He did not want to help out with anything else and left Liang Shu to settle the rest of the medical expenses herself.
He felt that since Liang Shu had so much money, she should pay for her own treatment.
While the Liang family was in an uproar, the Xia family was bustling with noisy excitement. The entire family was gathered together and Qiao Mei was personally cooking a feast for everyone tonight.
“I wonder what our cousin-in-law is cooking today. Just the fragrance alone makes me want to drool!” Xia You said as she looked towards the kitchen eagerly.
“Then why aren’t you helping out in the kitchen?” Xia Wan said as she laughed.
“I went just now! Qiao Mei said that there was nothing for me to do and our mother also said that my cooking doesn’t taste good. She even said that I’m not good with a knife!” Xia You said aggrievedly.
Her best dish was stirred fried shredded potatoes, which was also one of the simplest dishes to make. However, after eating the same dish cooked by Qiao Mei, she felt that her version was like swill in comparison!
Her version of the dish was to simply cut the potatoes into shreds and stir fry them. What Qiao Mei did was to slice the potatoes evenly, making them look like thin pieces of paper. Xia You felt that she really had to improve her own culinary skills.
Since it was the Spring Festival, Zhou Luo did not come to the Xia family house to cause trouble. Then again, only Xia Xing and his fiancée, Shao Yin, came with Xia Guang to the Xia family residence. Xia Lu and Xia Yan were unwilling to turn up.
Xia Jun did not really care. If they came back, they would only get on his nerves and make him feel annoyed.
“Qiao Mei is really very capable,” Shao Yin said ingratiatingly as she stood beside Liu Fen.
“That’s right. Our Xia family’s daughters-in-law are all nice girls. My third son’s wife, Yun Lan, is also a good cook,” Liu Fen said proudly. Then she looked at Shao Yin and asked, “Do you know how to cook?”
