Chapter 213 - Gave Him a New Job
President Wife is Pretty and Cool
Old thing!
Still thinking about your eldest son even at deathâs door!?
âGrandma, donât worry, you will be alright. Letâs eat something else today. The doctor said that you can only eat some simple soup with your illness, so I specially got someone to make some tofu soup for you to drink.â
Lan Anran took out a pot of white tofu with a little water inside. There wasnât any grease at all and there were even some chopped green onions floating on top.
Zhao Xiumei picked it up and took a sip. She frowned when there wasnât any taste at all.
âIsnât there any salt?â
Lan Anran pretended to be surprised and tried it.
âAh!â
She spat it out as soon as it entered her mouth, looking anguished.
âGrandma, itâs so salty, why did you say there isnât any salt?â
Zhao Xiumei tasted and was sure that there was no salt and said furiously, âYou brat! How dare you lie to me!â
She couldnât help but knock over the pot of tofu soup.
Just then, Lan Tingyun pushed the door open and Lan Anran started to sob.
âGrandma, itâs my fault. You were upset because you were ill. I made the tofu soup a little salty, Iâll make another one!â
When Zhao Xiumei saw Lan Tingyun return, she knew that the brat did it deliberately.
âThere isnât any salt, why are you pretending? Would an old lady like me bully you?â
She hurriedly explained.
âMom, whatâs wrong?â
Lan Tingyun walked over and asked.
âTingyun, that brat dares to tease me. This tofu soup has no oil or salt, she insisted that my sense of taste was problematic. Isnât she cursing me to make my illness worse?â
Zhao Xiumei scolded angrily.
âGrandma, itâs my fault. This tofu soup really has salt. Grandma, I didnât lie to you.â
Lan Anran said miserably.
âMom, itâs just a bowl of tofu soup, donât bicker with a child. I know youâre upset, let me help you rest.â
Lan Tingyun spoke softly.
âSleep? Do you think Iâm a pig? Iâm in bed for 18 hours a day, do you still treat me as your mother? You donât let me go anywhere and Iâm always in this small courtyard. Are you going to put me on house arrest?â Zhao Xiumei said furiously.
âMom, itâs not that. Weâre just taking care of you because youâre sick. Is the medicine you took still effective?â
Lan Tingyun asked.
âIt doesnât have much effect!â
Zhao Xiumei thought of her illness and her expression dimmed.
âAnran, your grandma is ill and needs nourishment. Why did you feed her this?â
Lan Tingyun looked at the tofu soup on the ground and questioned her.
âDad, I made a lot of soup for Grandma, but she doesnât drink it.â
Lan Anran felt wronged.
âBring the soup over.â
Lan Tingyun reminded her.
Lan Anran was overjoyed as she placed a pot of chicken soup in front of Zhao Xiumei.
âMom, be good and drink more!â
Lan Tingyun comforted her.
âTingyun, how is the matter with the house? Momâs health is deteriorating day by day, you have to fulfill my wishes.â
Zhao Xiumei was still fiddling with it.
âMom, donât worry, Iâm already raising money for the house, but itâs too much. I need time.â
Lan Tingyun blew the chicken soup to put it into Zhao Xiumeiâs mouth.
âWhat? Are you serious? Youâre not lying to me?â
Zhao Xiumei was pleasantly surprised.
âYeah.â
Lan Tingyi took the opportunity to send the chicken soup in.
âWhat about your brotherâs job?â Zhao Xiumei asked again.
âMom, if Tingyi doesnât change, he wouldnât be able to find a job anywhere. He couldnât go to his previous job and you know how Tingyi is like. He will have to depend on himself.â
Lan Tingyun continued to feed her chicken soup.
Zhao Xiumei was displeased and stopped drinking the chicken soup.
âDonât you know what your brother has experienced? He has an inferiority complex and was a conceited doctor previously. He definitely wouldnât accept you sending him to clean the toilets. Find a doctor related job for him, even if he has to give injections or manage medicine in the storeroom. He can lead an easy life and just get a salary.â
Lan Tingyun put down the chicken soup and thought for a moment.
âMom, an area in the hospital lacks people. I wonder if Tingyi dares to come? The work is relaxed and the salary is high.â
Zhao Xiumeiâs eyes lit up.
âWhat place?â
âThereâs a night shift in the hospitalâs mortuary.â
Lan Tingyun spoke slowly.
âPfft!ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Lan Anran couldnât hold in her laughter.
Lan Tingyi looked like a violent person everyday, but he was just a coward. It would be more difficult for him to go to the mortuary than to lie down himself.
âTingyun, youâ¦â
âMom, thereâs really no more room. He canât be a doctor anymore. The work in the morgue is pretty easy. He just has to move the patients, register them, and hand them over. This is as far as Tingyi can go.â
Lan Tingyun was helpless.
âSigh! Speaking of him, I donât think he has anything to do after sending me here. He didnât even come to see me.â
Zhao Xiumei was a little sad.
âGrandma, Uncle is probably busy gambling,â Lan Anran smiled and said.
âAnran, donât talk nonsense. Mom, Iâll talk to Tingyi myself and weâll see if he agrees.â
Lan Tingyun fed Zhao Xiumei the chicken soup.
âGrandma, hurry and drink, weâll go to bed later.â
Lan Anran hurried her. There was a surprise waiting for her up there.
