Rich in the 70s: I Made a Rugged Veteran a Millionaire novel Chapter 213

Chapter 213: Chapter 213: Pouring Out One’s Sorrows

Jiang Cheng returned to the hospital with Teacher Lü’s son and daughter.

However, she didn’t let the two go in directly.

"Gao Zhonghua, watch over them!"

"Got it!"

With his wide shoulders and solid build, Gao Zhonghua stood opposite them, watching them without blinking.

The siblings standing against the wall really didn’t dare to move.

Just now at the guesthouse, they tried to refuse to go to the hospital, but surrounded by everyone there, they obediently put on their coats.

Gao Zhonghua watched them intently all the way, making them feel uneasy.

Meanwhile, Jiang Cheng went to the ward, and Teacher Lü had already woken up.

Shen Que was talking to her.

Seeing Jiang Cheng enter, Teacher Lü smiled and said, "You found yourself a good partner."

Standing at the door, Jiang Cheng proudly lifted her chin.

"Of course!"

Shen Que looked at Jiang Cheng tenderly before pushing the wheelchair and said, "I’m going out for a bit."

"Alright."

Jiang Cheng stepped aside, Shen Que went out, and only she and Teacher Lü were left in the ward.

Teacher Lü looked at Jiang Cheng knowingly and asked, "Did you go find them?"

Jiang Cheng giggled and sat by the bed.

"Teacher Lü is smart; I can’t hide anything from you."

Teacher Lü didn’t buy Jiang Cheng’s "sweet talk" and bluntly said, "Shen Que told me."

Teacher Lü slowly moved her hand, Jiang Cheng conveniently offered her hand, waiting for Teacher Lü to speak.

Teacher Lü took a deep breath and slowly started.

"I know I’m not a good mother."

"But what hurts me the most is how easily they abandoned their roots."

"The country invested so much time in nurturing them, just because others offered a bit more, they left."

Jiang Cheng quickly stroked Teacher Lü’s arm, reassuringly said, "Don’t think about it."

Teacher Lü shook her head, with a look of understanding in her eyes, she said, "I won’t think about it anymore; I’ve figured it out."

"Some people are just not meant for it; they can’t hold onto it."

"It’s okay if they can’t hold on, but you can! And there are many more behind you who can!"

"Without belief in the heart, the path is impossible to walk down."

Jiang Cheng observed Teacher Lü; seeing she had truly let go, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She confidently said, "I can! I’ll show you I can hold on!"

"So, you must live a long life, watch over us, be the witness of history!"

Teacher Lü smiled and slowly nodded, saying, "Okay, okay, I will watch over you!"

The two chatted for quite a while, mostly Jiang Cheng talking about the interesting things in Sea City to calm Teacher Lü’s mood.

After over forty minutes, Teacher Lü looked at Jiang Cheng and asked, "Are they outside?"

"Yes, I even taught them a lesson."

Jiang Cheng spoke the truth, to which Teacher Lü approvingly said, "Well done!"

With Teacher Lü’s consent, Jiang Cheng went out to call the siblings.

But before they went in, Jiang Cheng gave them a "kind" lesson.

The core principle of the lesson: Speak nicely, don’t upset Teacher Lü.

Under Gao Zhonghua’s demonstration of crushing a brick with his bare hands, and Shen Que’s cold gaze, they agreed readily.

The siblings entered the ward, while Jiang Cheng, Gao Zhonghua, and Shen Que stood at the door.

Upon seeing the siblings, Teacher Lü’s mind repeatedly played Jiang Cheng’s advice: Being strong isn’t always better than shedding tears.

Having been strong all her life, Teacher Lü suddenly cried.

"Go ahead, I’m your real mother, how could I not miss you!"

"I just... can’t bear to part with you."

Teacher Lü lowered her head, using a handkerchief to wipe her tears.

In reality, she was looking at the words Jiang Cheng wrote for her.

"Sigh—I was always working outside when you were little, seeing others reunite with their kids each day, it really hurt."

"Mom won’t stop you; I just hope you’ll keep in mind that you’re Hua Xia people!" 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
