Chapter 101 Extra 3

When Chen Pan got married, Chen Aiguo and his wife jokingly said, "Now that they're fine, they naturally won't bother Chen Pan and his family. But if they really have problems, they will definitely bother Chen Pan and his family."

When they said this, Chen Aiguo and his wife were actually just giving Chen Pan and the others a heads-up, and they didn't have any intention of following them to Beijing immediately.

But no one expected that on the day when Chen Pan returned home after her wedding, Chen Aiguo suddenly felt numbness in his hands and feet and discomfort in his right eye.

Thinking that Grandpa Chen was just too busy and drank too much recently, Qin Yang and Chen Pan forcibly sent him to Longcheng Hospital immediately.

To be honest, after being diagnosed with a stroke precursor there, Xu Chunhua's head was buzzing.

Then that day, her husband, who seemed fine, suddenly said that his hands and feet were numb, he suddenly had no strength, and his eyes suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. The doctor immediately arranged for him to be hospitalized.

"Yes, the patient has a long-term smoking and drinking habit. He was recently busy preparing for our wedding and was overworked, forgetting to take his blood pressure medication. Since last night, he's been experiencing subtle numbness in his hands and feet. This morning, he woke up with blurred vision in his right eye. These are classic signs of a stroke. I gave him two aspirin tablets and one metformin tablet when he came in, and he didn't take anything else—"

When he arrived at the hospital, Grandpa Chen, who had only felt numbness in his hands and feet and some discomfort in his eyes, suddenly had a headache. When he arrived at the hospital, he could no longer speak clearly.

All subsequent matters were handled by Qin Yang, the son-in-law.

He had worked in this hospital when he was studying and was familiar with all the procedures there.

It can be said that the hospital is his home ground.

I watched my husband being quickly pushed away for various examinations, and then quickly given injections and hanging medicines.

Xu Chunhua could only be thankful that today was the day her granddaughter and grandson-in-law would return home.

We can only be thankful that Qin Yang is a medical student. Some symptoms that may not seem serious to them can be seen to be wrong just by a casual glance.

Grandpa Chen, who almost had a stroke that time, was treated in the hospital for a week.

A week later, after being persuaded by Chen Pan and Qin Yang.

Grandpa Chen and Grandma Chen, who have been unable to give up their work for many years, finally went to Beijing with Chen Pan and Qin Yang.

That was their first time to go to Beijing. They originally went there to ask Qin Yang to treat their bodies and have a good rest.

But after that, they started various tours.

Tiananmen Square, the Great Wall, the Forbidden City, and the Temple of Heaven.

The granddaughter and grandson-in-law took them to visit those four places.

Later, after their granddaughter started working and their grandson-in-law was urgently called to the hospital, Chen Aiguo and Xu Chunhua, who had never traveled far in their lives, began to try to walk outside on their own.

In the past, they were actually very afraid of traveling far away and going to the city.

They are afraid that when they talk to others, they will tilt their heads and make an expression that says, "I don't understand what you are saying."

They are also afraid that they will get lost while walking and lose their direction, and then be harassed or ignored when asking for directions.

They are also afraid of the way others look at them blatantly when they see them.

But the experience of doing business over the past decade has made them particularly bold.

Having lived in Longcheng for so long, they still spoke the Longcheng dialect most of the time, but occasionally spoke Mandarin with others. So when they arrived in Beijing and spoke Mandarin with others, even though their Mandarin sounded strange and dialectal to others, at least they were not panicking at all.

As for not being able to find the way or understand the road signs.

Now they have learned to use money to solve problems. If they get lost, they can just take a taxi back.

If you have trouble understanding the signs and icons while traveling, just pay to hire a tour guide early at the entrance to the tourist destination.

The granddaughter and grandson-in-law have been looking for a Longcheng nanny or a part-time college student from Longcheng who can understand their Longcheng dialect.

But after they went to work, Chen Aiguo and Xu Chunhua did not waste a single day. They packed their bags and went to visit places that their granddaughter and grandson-in-law had not yet taken them to.

They quickly figured out where they lived, which had better vegetable markets and large shopping malls.

Then, after living with Panpan and Qin Yang for a week, they took charge of all the subsequent purchasing matters.

The issues of hiring a nanny and finding a part-time worker naturally came to nothing.

He knew that his granddaughter had three small houses here, and he also knew that in addition to the three-bedroom house they lived in now, Qin Yang also had a small two-bedroom house for rent.

Anyway, after seeing Chen Pan's one-bedroom apartment, which was still empty and which they had never been willing to rent out, and realizing that living where their two children currently lived would not affect them, Grandpa Chen and Grandma Chen settled down there peacefully.

No matter how late Qin Yang comes back, he will check the blood pressure and blood sugar of the old couple at night.

Whenever he had time, he would cook astragalus, codonopsis, lotus seeds, black beans, soybeans and other things for everyone to drink in the evening.

Every morning when they wake up, the child will make each person a bowl of soy milk made from various beans.

Knowing that they often go out during the day, he would prepare various longan teas and Ophiopogon teas for everyone, and asked them to fill them in large thermos cups every day.

Panpan has just started working and feels a little nervous every day.

Qin Yang was like a little old man, comforting Panpan to everyone and preparing various foods and drinks for everyone.

Whenever he has time, he will make plans to take Grandpa and Grandma Chen to visit other attractions and food streets in Beijing.

As long as both children have time, they will definitely drive a little further.

In fact, they haven’t had such a leisurely life since Panpan started junior high school and since their family opened their first bakery.

That period was actually the most relaxing time in Chen Aiguo and Xu Chunhua's lives.

It is also a leisurely time for them to accompany Chen Pan and Qin Yang, allowing them to have a leisurely time every day without having to think too much, just considering what to eat and drink and where to go.

In fact, they did not completely abstain from certain foods during that period.

In fact, the route they walked every day during that period was probably exactly the same as the route they walked during working hours.

But for some reason, even though they ate and drank every day during that period, they did not gain weight.

Even though the number of steps they walked was roughly the same as before, they just didn't feel too tired.

After living with Chen Pan and Qin Yang for a few months, their blood sugar and blood pressure quickly returned to normal.

Even though they didn't go to the hospital for follow-up checkups during that period, they felt much better.

Grandpa Chen and Grandma Chen lived in Beijing with Qin Yang and Chen Pan for a total of half a year.

Later, because Grandpa Chen's grain and oil company was going to hold its annual dealer conference and Grandma Chen's bakery also had some minor problems, they decided to go back.

And that time, they also followed the trend and took a flight for the first time.

"Grandpa and grandma, are you really okay?"

It was their first time flying, and Chen Aiguo and Xu Chunhua were a little nervous, but Chen Pan seemed even more nervous than them. When Qin Yang went to get their tickets, she was holding their luggage and worried again.

"It's okay, it's okay. Once we get inside, we'll ask the staff more questions. We'll text you when we find the boarding gate, and we'll send you photos once we're on the plane."

"Yes, we will ask more questions now that we have grown our mouths, so don't worry."

Although Grandpa Chen and Grandma Chen don't know how to use □□, they can use SMS and MMS.

When their granddaughter was worried, they immediately forgot their nervousness and immediately patted their chests to make promises.

"Well, Grandpa and Grandma, I've already contacted Brother Sanbao to pick you up at the airport at four o'clock. Turn on your phones after you get off the plane, and he should call you then. Also, you've seen how we're doing in Beijing. If you feel unwell or are bored at home, come over."

Still feeling a little worried and reluctant, Chen Pan cut her hair shorter and couldn't help but talk about it again.

"Got it. Let's go back and take care of things at home first. We'll come over when we have time."

Knowing that their current home is big enough to accommodate them, and knowing that they are not opposed to living with their two children, Chen Aiguo said this with a smile.

"Grandpa and grandma, I got the tickets."

Qin Yang came over with their ID cards and boarding passes.

Seeing this, Grandma Chen said directly in front of Qin Yang: "When we return, you should invite your parents to visit Beijing as well, and don't let your stepfather's relatives say anything."

"Okay, National Day is next month, we'll try to get in touch then." Understanding what his grandma meant, Chen Pan nodded without hesitation.

"Well, we'll try. But as for my mom, I don't think she'll come."

Taking the two large suitcases from Chen Pan's hands, Qin Yang said at the right time.

"If you just buy their tickets and tell them they can't be refunded, and if they do, they won't get their money back, how can they not come?"

Knowing the thoughts of the older generation, Chen Aiguo followed his granddaughter and grandson-in-law to the check-in gate and gave them advice.

"Yes, as long as you buy the plane tickets early, they will feel your sincerity and will definitely be willing to come and have a look. Then you can take them to see Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City and the Great Wall, just like you took us. They will be very happy." Thinking of her own excitement when she came to Beijing, Grandma Chen empathized with them.

"Yes, as long as you are Chinese, there is no one who doesn't want to take pictures and raise the national flag at Tiananmen Square." Chen Aiguo was also very sensible. He knew that Qin Yang's mother would definitely want to come to Beijing to enjoy something like this. So he followed his wife and kept persuading her.

"Okay, then we'll book their plane tickets in a few days. Then we'll take them on a nice tour."

Understanding that after getting married, one cannot just be nice to one's own family, but also treat the other party's parents equally. Chen Pan listened to their words and nodded seriously.

After Grandpa Chen and Grandma Chen returned home, Qin Yang and Chen Pan invited Qin Yang's mother, stepfather, and their little girl, who was already in elementary school, to visit Beijing.

The little girl was going to school, but Qin Yang's stepfather was still teaching and had not retired yet.

So when they came to Beijing that time, they only stayed there for a week.

During those days, Chen Pan and Qin Yang were both on vacation. Just like they had treated Grandpa and Grandma Chen before, they took them to the flag-raising ceremony and took photos of them in front of Tiananmen Square. They also took them to climb the Great Wall and eat Beijing's most famous Peking duck...

Eating, drinking and playing are the best ways to enhance everyone's feelings.

Even though Qin Yang's younger sister and stepfather were not familiar with them, after spending a few days together, their feelings for each other unexpectedly grew a lot.

Anyway, after that, they were all great in Chen Pan’s family group and Qin Yang’s family group.

Whether it was Grandpa Chen and Grandma Chen, or Mother Qin and Qin Yang's stepfather, after they returned, they all took the photos they took in Beijing and showed them off in front of their relatives and friends.

After their relatives and friends learned that Grandpa Chen and Grandma Chen had lived with them in Beijing for half a year, and that Mother Qin and Qin Yang's stepfather had also visited Beijing for a week, they all felt that their two children were doing well and that they knew how to be filial.

As for Qin Yang, he has actually felt a little uncomfortable since his mother remarried.

That discomfort wasn't the discomfort of his mother being taken away, but rather the intense guilt he felt after his mother got married, after a strange sense of relief for his own survival. While he felt that clear sense of relief, he also experienced a strong sense of guilt and remorse.

What's worse is that Qin Yang had a feeling that his mother should understand what he was thinking.

Because of these strange feelings, Qin Yang felt that there was actually a little gap between him and his mother over the years.

But after that week of close contact, and after confirming that my mother and stepfather were indeed living well, and after having a few private conversations with my mother, the strange knots and estrangement between them miraculously disappeared a lot.

Anyway, the experience of inviting Grandpa Chen, Grandma Chen, and Mother Qin and Stepfather Qin Yang to live with them was unexpectedly good.

The house where Qin Yang and Chen Pan lived was a three-bedroom house. It wasn't particularly large, but it was more than enough to entertain two or three people.

Besides that house, they also have other houses.

Anyway, after that, they would basically invite them to stay for a while every year.

Every Chinese New Year or other festival, they would take the initiative to go back to their hometown.

Later on, they didn't actually become particularly rich.

But with the money they earned from the previous demolition and some previous investments, they have become a little more relaxed than most people around them.

Chen Pan later worked in the Translation Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

After graduating with a doctorate, Qin Yang has remained at the Beijing Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

When they first came to Beijing to study, they didn't actually want to stay there forever. In fact, they had the idea of ​​hanging out outside for a few years before finally returning home.

But since they all bought houses in Beijing when housing prices were the lowest.

After one of them passed the civil service exam in Beijing and the other stayed in the hospital that cooperated with the school after graduation, they unexpectedly took root in Beijing.

Four years after their marriage, the couple had their first child.

At that time, Chen Pan was only 30 years old, and Qin Yang's age according to his household registration was actually only 34.

After they gave birth to Xinxin, everyone around them felt sorry for them, and many people also gloated over their misfortune.

Later, when the country introduced the two-child policy, people from all over were happy for them and secretly urged them to have another companion for Xinxin.

But no matter how much the people around them persuaded and urged them, Chen Pan and Qin Yang only had one child, Xinxin.

Sometimes, looking at Qin Yang, who is so emotionally stable and considerate, Chen Pan would wonder if she would marry him because she really likes him, or because she likes his stable personality, or because she likes his kindness and sense of responsibility? Or is it because of Qin Yang's financial situation?

But no matter how she thought about it, Chen Pan's final answer was: She has never regretted marrying the other person in this life, and she feels that she has made the right choice.

As for Qin Yang, he sometimes had this strange feeling: Does Panpan really like me? Or did she just choose me because I was suitable for her?

But no matter how he thought about it, every night when he held her tightly in his arms, Qin Yang felt a sense of regaining what he had lost, and a sense of happiness that seemed to complete his life.

Qin Yang actually didn't know why he liked Chen Pan so much, and why, ever since he met her, he had such a strong desire and delusion in his heart that he must be with her in this life.

But no matter what, he has indeed achieved what he wanted in this life.

His mother back home is still very healthy and her illness has never recurred. He got married before he was 30 and had his own baby a few years after marriage. He also has a good job, treating patients every day. While making money, he also has a strange sense of satisfaction and pride in his heart.

Anyway, Qin Yang feels very good and satisfied with this kind of life.

Qin Yang lowered his head and kissed the little hair on Panpan's head in his arms. Then he woke up in the middle of the night and thought about it for a while, then lowered his head and hugged the person in his arms and fell asleep again.

He was scheduled to work the early shift tomorrow, so he really couldn't think too much at this time.
