Shocking! The seemingly useless ex-wife is actually an all-around queen!

Chapter 471: Old Madam Si is Critically Ill

When she finished speaking, Si Huashang could barely stand, her face turned pale, and she looked like she was about to faint. Fortunately, Shi Nanxingteng reached out and supported her.

"Hua Chang, what's wrong? What did you say on the phone?"

Jiang Ning and Shen Jingnian also looked nervously at Si Huashang.

Although Si Huashang didn't say anything.

Seeing Si Huashang like this, the group had a vague sense of unease.

Si Huashang's voice was hoarse as soon as she spoke, "My older brother just called and said that my mother might not make it, and that we should hurry back to see her one last time."

One last time?

How could this be the last time we saw each other?

Upon hearing this, Shi Nanxing's expression immediately changed, and her eyes reddened as she said, "How could this happen? Mom was perfectly fine when she came over last time."

Grandma Si came here after Jiang Ning gave birth and stayed in the capital until the children's one-month celebration was over before returning home.

During this time, Si Huashang and Shi Nanxing also flew to Hong Kong to visit Old Madam Si.

It had only been a little over two months since they last met.

Although Mrs. Si is almost 97 years old, she was in good health when we last met her. She could even kick up pebbles while walking. Everyone said that Mrs. Si would live to be at least 120 years old.

Receiving this news so suddenly was really hard for Shi Nanxing to accept.

Shi Nanxing then said, "Don't be afraid, Huashang. Maybe the doctor made a mistake. Mom will be fine."

Jiang Ning looked at Si Huashang and then said, "Mom, please have my eldest uncle send me a video of Grandma so I can take a look."

Although she is not with Old Mrs. Si now.

However, traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes observation, listening, questioning, and palpation, with observation being the most important. Therefore, one can still discern some insights from the video.

“Okay.” Si Huashang immediately picked up her phone and sent a WeChat message to Si Huawen.

Shen Jingnian continued, "Then I'll buy the plane tickets right away."

They were in a hurry and couldn't use a private plane.

The only way to get there is by plane.

The situation was urgent, and they needed to buy tickets for the next available flight.

When Grandma Shi and Grandpa Jiang heard that Grandma Si had an accident, they were extremely shocked.

Grandpa Jiang said, "How could she suddenly fall ill? Her maternal grandmother was perfectly fine at the three babies' one-month celebration last time!"

“Yes,” Grandma Shi’s face was not good. “I had made an appointment with Grandma Shengbao that when the three babies turned one year old, she would come to Beijing to play mahjong with us.”

But now.

The three babies are only seven months old; they haven't even celebrated their first birthday yet.

This was too sudden.

There were almost no warning signs.

It was at this time that Si Huawen sent over a video of Grandma Si.

Si Huashang immediately handed the phone to Jiang Ning.

Jiang Ning took the phone, and after just one glance, her expression turned serious. "Grandma probably won't make it this time."

Upon hearing this, Si Huashang almost fainted.

Jiang Ning's medical skills are evident.

She said such things.

Then there would truly be no way to reverse the situation.

Grandma Shi looked at Shen Jingnian and then said, "Jingnian, if you're buying plane tickets, buy one for me and Grandpa Shengbao too. We want to go and see Grandma off on her final journey."

This is the last time we'll see each other.

If they don't go this time, they'll never have another chance.

"Okay." Shen Jingnian nodded slightly, and soon the plane tickets were bought.

Two hours later, the family took off and, with their three little ones, rushed to the airport overnight.

An hour and a half later.

The family boarded the plane.

Because there were so many people, Shen Jingnian booked the entire business class cabin.

After putting the three children to sleep, Grandma Shi said with red eyes, "No wonder, no wonder the three little ones have been so noisy and restless ever since Jingnian and Shengbao went on their business trip. Their great-grandmother must have come to see them."

The older generation often believes in metaphysics, such as the idea that death is like a lamp going out, meaning that once a person dies, nothing remains.

But a person has a living soul before death, when they are on the verge of death.

The living soul will look back on its life, collect its footprints, and go to find the person it cannot let go of in its heart.

Who is the person that Grandma Si worries about the most and is most concerned about?

Of course, it's Si Huashang, Jiang Ning, and the newborn babies.

and so.

Maybe it really is Grandma Si who came back to see her children.

The flames of an adult are so intense that the soul cannot be seen.

However, some young babies can see the spirits of the living. When they see the spirits, the children feel insecure and cry incessantly.

Grandpa Jiang nodded, "We have the same saying in my hometown!"

--

at the same time.

Hong Kong.

Grandma Si lay in bed, her face pale, with an oxygen tube in her mouth, unable to speak.

Coincidentally.

Just three days before the incident involving Old Mrs. Si, all eight of her maternal uncles returned for a clan meeting, along with her thirteen grandsons, several granddaughters-in-law, and great-grandsons.

At this moment.

Everyone gathered around Old Mrs. Si's bedside, their expressions serious, waiting for the doctor's reply.

A few minutes later, the doctor removed the stethoscope.

Si Huawen immediately asked, "Doctor, how is my mother now?"

Everyone else looked at the doctor, their eyes filled with anticipation.

Although Mrs. Si is already 97 years old, even if something really happens to her, it will be a happy death. But as her children and grandchildren, who wouldn't want their loved ones to live longer and spend more time with them?

The doctor shook his head, his face full of regret. "The old lady is very old, and all her organs are showing signs of failure. I'm afraid she doesn't have much time left. Your family should be prepared for the possibility that she may leave us at any time."

Hear this.

Everyone's faces were filled with sorrow.

The hope in Si Huawen's and his brothers' eyes gradually faded.

My father passed away not long after my sister's accident.

Now, Mother is leaving too.

Mother is here.

They are still children, and they still have support in this world.

With their mother gone, their only support was gone.

At this point, the doctor continued, "The reason the old lady is still clinging to life is probably because there are still people she wants to see but hasn't seen yet, and there are unfulfilled wishes."

Didn't see the person you wanted to see?

The unfulfilled wish is gone?

Upon hearing this, the Si family members exchanged glances, and Sun Jiaqi immediately said, "Mom is definitely waiting for Hua Chang and Sheng Bao!"

Zhao Yunong knelt down in front of the bed and held the old lady Si's hand. "Mom, if you're waiting for Huashang and Shengbao, just blink."

Hear the words.

Grandma Si immediately blinked.

Chu Mengli walked to the bedside. "Mom, Huashang and Shengbao have already boarded the plane. They'll arrive in a little over three hours. Please hang in there a little longer."

Grandma Si blinked again.

For the next few hours, the entire Si family stayed in the old lady's bedroom, afraid of missing her last moments, and prayed that Jiang Ning and Si Huashang would arrive soon.

We must see Mrs. Si one last time, so that she doesn't have any regrets.

Three hours later.

The butler rushed in, "Miss, Miss, the young master, and Miss Sun are back!"
