Chapter 386: Chapter 386 It Seems There is Still Hope
Yuan Jiaming gave Luo Qiao a cassette tape with songs and English lessons because Grandpa Yuan had previously given her a tape recorder, prompting him to think of the cassette tapes.
At this moment, Yuan Weihan came over and said, "Qiaoqiao, Ningning, tomorrow afternoon there’s a performance at the military base, do you two want to come and join the fun?"
Yuan Jianing said, "That sounds good."
Then she turned to Luo Qiao and asked, "Qiaoqiao, I forgot to ask you, are you free tomorrow afternoon?"
Luo Qiao replied, "What time in the afternoon? I need to check my schedule."
Yuan Weihan said, "The performance officially starts at half-past three in the afternoon."
Luo Qiao thought for a moment then nodded, "Okay, then I’ll go with Sister Jianing tomorrow."
She had to visit the Jing Family early in the morning and then return to her grandparents’ to treat Big Brother and Second Brother. Her schedule was indeed tight for tomorrow.
Yuan Weihan said, "Come a bit earlier tomorrow, and I’ll show you around."
Sitting on the side, Eldest Yuan Weizhou, who had not spoken, smiled and said, "I think you just want to show off Luo Qiao."
Yuan Weihan looked at his big brother and responded, "Isn’t it better to uncover things without pointing them out?"
Everyone burst into laughter again!
Old Master Yuan walked in from outside just in time to hear the laughter in the living room and remarked, "It’s quite lively today."
As the old master entered, everyone stood up. Yuan Weizhou asked, "Dad, where have you been?"
Old Master Yuan said with a smile, "I went to the Geng Family. Their retired military dog gave birth to a litter of wolf pups a few days ago."
Luo Qiao’s interest was piqued when she heard this, "Grandpa, how many are there?"
Old Master Yuan took a seat on the sofa, "Eight in total, all very robust."
Hearing there were eight, Luo Qiao edged closer to him, "Grandpa, have the wolf pups been promised to anyone? I’d like one too."
Old Master Yuan laughed, "If you want one, then I’ll speak to them right away to reserve one for you. Is one enough?"
Luo Qiao asked, "Can I have two?"
Without hesitation, Old Master Yuan made a phone call: "Hello, Old Geng, this is Old Yuan."
"Reserve two wolf pups for me. My granddaughter wants them."
"Sure, no problem. I’ll bring her over to choose later."
"That’s fine, taking them away after the fifteenth shouldn’t be an issue, right?"
"Sure, sure, let’s do that."
After hanging up the phone, Old Master Yuan laughed, "It’s settled, but those puppies will be a few days shy of a month old when you take them on the eighteenth, so you’ll need to take good care of them."
Luo Qiao smiled, "I definitely can take good care of them."
They were in the midst of their lively conversation when Yuan Weicheng returned home, and just in time, Auntie Chen’s dinner was ready.
The family had a boisterous dinner together, and after exchanging a few words with Yuan Weicheng, Luo Qiao left with Yuan Jianing for the Zhong Family’s place.
After tidying up, Auntie Chen took leave from Grandpa Yuan to visit her daughter Aisiss and would return early the next morning to cook.
Normally Old Master Yuan would have said, "Don’t come so early, someone else here can cook."
But this time, Auntie Chen didn’t hear any polite words from the old master, only a crisp, "Alright."
After Auntie Chen had left, Song Huizhen said, "Dad, Sister Chen has been running off frequently these past few days and has been distracted. She even harangued Luo Qiao at noon today, talking about all sorts of nonsense."
Old Master Yuan responded, "If she can’t settle down, then find an opportunity to let her go. We’ve done our duty."
Song Huizhen nodded, "Understood, Dad."
As Luo Qiao was leaving the Zhong Family’s home, she said, "I won’t come the day after tomorrow, but I’ll come back on the third day of the New Year to continue with the acupuncture treatment."
She took out three jars of medicinal ointment from her sling bag and handed them to the Zhong Family, "Apply this to the knees and below as well as to the injured leg for half an hour each day. Just a thin layer, and rub it until it’s fully absorbed by the skin."
Leaving the Zhong Family, Luo Qiao and Yuan Jianing unexpectedly ran into Geng Yan Qiu on their way back. They intended to just walk past, but Geng Yan Qiu looked at Luo Qiao and asked, "Are you the one who wants the wolf pups?"
Luo Qiao nodded, "Yes."
Geng Yan Qiu, having heard Luo Qiao’s reply, said, "Come pick them out tomorrow morning."
She walked away without turning her head back.
Yuan Jianing watched Geng Yan Qiu’s retreating figure, "This person, why is she so easy to talk to today?"
Luo Qiao smiled, "Maybe there’s hope after all?"
Yuan Jianing looked away, "Are you saying the things you told her today got through to her, and that’s why she’s so approachable now?"
