Married at First Sight Chapter 4741
“Old Eight was in a car accident.”
Qiao Han’s heart tightened, and he asked with concern: “Is he seriously injured? Where did the accident happen? You, Old Five, and Sister Tong all went to the hospital, right?”
Zhan Haoyu replied: “You don’t have to worry. We didn’t tell the elders that the injury was not serious. At present, we only know about external injuries. Whether there are internal injuries or not has to wait for the results of the X-ray to come out.”
“Old Eight looks like nothing happened. He also said that there is no big problem.”
“The car was just badly damaged in the front. He said that part of the windshield was broken and scratched his hand.”
“He called my eldest brother first, and my eldest brother contacted my eldest sister-in-law and asked her to notify Old Five and me. Now my eldest brother and sister-in-law have left, and Old Five and I are still in the hospital.”
“Wait for the test results to come out. If there is no big problem, let his housekeeper come to take care of him.”
They left home suddenly. If the elders knew, they would definitely suspect something had happened.
Although grandma is no longer in charge, she is still very smart.
“As long as no one’s hurt, that’s what matters. If the car’s damaged, then it’s damaged—we’ll just replace it with a new one when the time comes. How did the accident happen? Old Eighth has always been steady, unlike Old Ninth who’s still a bit reckless.”
Old Ninth, Zhan Yan, was the youngest. All the elder brothers doted on him. He didn’t have to shoulder the family responsibilities yet, nor was he at the age of being pressured into marriage, so his life was the most carefree. That’s why his temperament was still somewhat reckless, lacking in maturity and steadiness.
A man of twenty-four or twenty-five indeed wasn’t all that mature or steady.
“Mhm, I’m fine. You don’t need to worry. Just watch over those two little rascals at home. I’ll be back later. If they don’t behave, I’ll give them a beating when I get back.”
Qiao Han laughed and said, “You’re all talk. If you really dared to beat them, Grandma’s cane would come flying at you. Even Mom and Dad wouldn’t let you off. In our family, violence isn’t allowed in education.”
Although… sometimes, she also really wanted to give those two brats a good beating.
Zhan Haoyu chuckled, “Then I’ll take them out and give them a beating. As long as I forbid them from telling when they come home, it’ll be fine.”
“They’re not stupid. During the summer break, with the old matriarch watching over them, no matter where you take them, if they get a beating, they’ll definitely run back and tell Grandma. Forget it—boys are supposed to be a little wild. It’s summer vacation anyway, just let them have their fun.”
“Yeah, and it’s not just our boys going crazy. Every one of them is playing like mad. Even Beibei and Niuniu are tagging along, running after their big brothers everywhere.”
Qiao Han laughed as she spoke: “I can see those little rascals don’t really like having to take their two little sisters along, but they don’t dare refuse either. Haha, watching them helplessly, yet forced to patiently take care of the girls—it’s pretty funny.”
“Of course, it’s also very sweet. They all dote on the two little sisters.”
Zhan Haoyu said, “Of course. There are too few sisters. They all know how to cherish them. I have nine brothers, and not a single sister. If we had even one sister, we would’ve pampered her with our lives.”
“As for Old Eighth’s matter, don’t let the elders in the family know for now.”
Qiao Han replied, “Don’t worry, I understand. It’s nothing serious for Old Eighth. Let him stay in the hospital for observation a few days. Once the injury on his hand fully heals, he can come back. Anyway, everyone’s busy with work, it’s not like we go back to the old family house every day.”
“That’s natural. We arranged it this way. Old Eight didn’t want to be hospitalized at first. He said it was okay. Big brother kept pressuring him to be hospitalized, and he was nagging about it. Now, without big brother pressuring him, he wants to be hospitalized. Maybe he even wants to stay there.”
“What’s the matter? Is there something complicated?”
Zhan Haoyu chuckled and said, “Old Eight’s fate may have come. Just now, a young female doctor came over and she is in charge of Old Eight. I noticed that Old Eight’s eyes lit up when he saw the female doctor.”
“Did Old Eight fall in love with that female doctor at first sight?”
Qiao Han also laughed. “This is really fate. Usually we matchmake for them and arrange blind dates for him, but he didn’t feel anything. When fate comes, he is moved without us even having to help him.”
“That’s right. When fate comes, it cannot be stopped. I just don’t know what the character of the female doctor surnamed Zeng is like, or what her family background is like. Our family doesn’t particularly emphasize that the couple must be well-matched, but they can’t be too ordinary either.”
“If her family background is too ordinary, my younger sister-in-law will also feel a lot of pressure to marry into our family.
