My Wife Is A Miracle Doctor In The 80s

Chapter 993: Chapter 977: Can Only Leave Home Chapter 993: Chapter 977: Can Only Leave Home “Chengcheng, have you asked for leave from your teacher?”

Ren Li asked her son, knowing that even if they were leaving, they still needed to ask for permission.

“Mom, school is closed.”

When Tang Xincheng came over for a check-up, the school had already received the news and had given them an early holiday.

As for when classes would resume, that would require further notice.

But it seemed unlikely they would restart within a week.

It appeared that someone in the class next door had developed a fever.

He had been worried that he might have spread it, feeling guilty.

But since he was okay, it meant he wasn’t the source of the infection.

Nevertheless, the school wouldn’t reopen anytime soon, regardless of who had spread it.

“That’s good,” Ren Li picked up a suitcase, which was hurriedly packed with both her and her son’s clothes.

There was no time for a careful arrangement.

If they needed something later, they could buy it then.

“Mom, where are we going?”

Tang Xincheng sat in the car and fastened his seatbelt before asking Ren Li, “Are we going to Grandpa Wang’s place?”

“No,”

Ren Li started the car and drove off, “Your Grandpa Wang is old and has just recovered from an illness.

His health isn’t good.

Besides, Little Bean is there too.

We might carry the virus with us.

Adults might be unaffected, but a weak child could get sick, and that would be serious.”

“So, are we going to Big Brother Gu’s place?”

Tang Xincheng actually wanted to go to the Wang Family’s home since he had grown up there.

But after hearing his mother, he understood that he couldn’t go.

If he went and Little Bean caught the infection, what would they do?

So, they could only head to the Gu Family’s home.

“There’s also a Qiqi at your Big Brother Gu’s place.”

Ren Li reminded her son, implying that they couldn’t go to the Gu Family’s home either.

“Then, where are we going?” Tang Xincheng’s face fell, “Mom, we can’t just live in a hotel, can we?” Staying in hotels day after day wouldn’t be bearable.

He wanted to live in a home, not in hotels.

Not at all.

“We’re not staying in a hotel,” said Ren Li, clearly not considering that an option either.

She had a place in mind, but she decided to keep it a surprise for her son to ease his worries.

“So, where to?”

Tang Xincheng kicked the car door with his foot, “Mom, I miss Dabai and Xiaobai; I wonder how they’re doing?”

He wanted to stay and take care of Dabai and Xiaobai.

Whenever they were sick, he was always there.

Now that his uncle was gone, who would tell them jokes and play with them?

“Stop worrying about it,” Ren Li was always straightforward, even if it sounded a bit harsh.

“As long as you don’t trouble your sister, that’s good enough.

You haven’t had chickenpox yet, haven’t you heard your sister say?

It’s not just any chickenpox this time.

They say it’s a new type of virus, and up to now, there’s no medicine that can treat it.”

“Dabai and Xiaobai are already a handful; if we add you, do you want to exhaust your sister to death?”

Tang Xincheng fell silent.

He realized he wouldn’t be of any help and would only cause more trouble, so he decided it was best to let his mother lead him away.

Besides, his father was there; he could call his nephew every day, which was just as good.

Chengcheng didn’t ask where Ren Li was taking him; after all, she was his mother and surely wouldn’t sell him.

Besides, who would buy him?

He was always eating and hadn’t grown much.

He’d be scared of getting caught if he were made to work as a child laborer.

Ren Li took Tang Xincheng through twists and turns, evoking such confusion in him that he couldn’t even remember the way.

From his backpack, he pulled out his textbook and began to read.

It wasn’t until the car stopped that Ren Li also got out, then opened the trunk and took out a suitcase.

Tang Xincheng got out with his backpack on, and then he looked at the antique-style building in front of him.

It was a large garden, filled with diverse trees that created a cool, shady canopy.

Occasionally, one could hear the call of birds, and the verdant surroundings seemed to tenderly embrace the whole span of time, leaving traces of countless bygone eras.

Even each blue brick and every green tile seemed to carry the passage of time.

People grow older, but this place remains unchanged.

Even if times change drastically, what remains here is this solidity, a simplicity, and yet, it also symbolizes the luxury of this place.

“Mom, what are we doing here?”

Tang Xincheng almost twisted his neck sore, wondering, what exactly were they doing here?

Could it be they were going to stay here?

This place looked like a hotel, but who has a hotel like this?

Ren Li, carrying the suitcase, proceeded ahead while Tang Xincheng closely followed, walking on the bluestone pavement with an indescribable ancient feel, as if even the stones under his feet were imbued with years of history.

Ren Li stepped forward and placed her hand on the lock at the entrance.

This seemed to be an ancient house, similar to Tang Garden, yet it wasn’t as worn as the past would suggest.

For instance, the door here featured the latest electronic lock.

Ren Li raised her hand and rapidly input a string of numbers; she was so fast that Tang Xincheng couldn’t even react in time.

And before he realized what was happening, the door squeaked open.

“It opened?” Tang Xincheng pointed to the door, almost dropping his jaw in surprise, “Mom, the door opened!”

“I know, let’s go in,” Ren Li replied, ruffling her son’s hair.

“This is where we will live from now on.

We can return after Gu Dabai and Xiaobai recover a bit.”

“Okay,” Tang Xincheng hurried after Ren Li, his eyes curiously surveying the surroundings.

He really found the place beautiful—there were more trees than in Tang Garden, and it looked nice, although it was a bit smaller.

But he had always thought Tang Garden was too large; they ended up using the back of it for raising chickens and growing vegetables, wasting so much space.

This place was just right, neither too big nor too small, with its verdant trees.

Especially here, there was a huge tree that several people couldn’t wrap their arms around—could it be a centuries-old ancient tree?

He ran over to it and touched the big tree, “Mom, this tree is so big!” He pressed his little cheek against the tree.

“This could fetch a good price if we sold it.”

Ren Li placed the suitcase on the ground and came over, placing her hand on the tree.

“This tree is almost three hundred years old, would you really cut it down to sell it?”

“Hehe…”

Tang Xincheng just chuckled, “I was just saying.

This tree has grown so big, it’s like it’s become sentient.

I wouldn’t chop it down.

Let’s let it grow here for life, witnessing the changes in the world for us and guarding over our descendants.”

Ren Li then stroked Tang Xincheng’s head again.

“Chengcheng, do you like it here?”

“I do,” Tang Xincheng nodded vigorously.

“I really like it.

Mom, are we going to live here?”
