I Packed Away the Supplies and Fled with My Family

Nuclear pollution has altered human genes, granting abilities that can be plundered by others. Shen Xingmian managed to acquire multiple abilities but, in the end, overwhelmed by despair for the fu...

Chapter 210 Eyes Healed

Xiao Yanyue helped her grandmother sit back on the bed, and, afraid that she would catch a cold, she wrapped her in a quilt.

There were two charcoal braziers in the room, both still burning, but the heat was limited and certainly not as good as a heated kang bed. He had to rely entirely on his body heat to keep warm on the bed, which made him feel very guilty.

He felt he was enjoying a life of luxury in the Shen family, while his maternal grandmother suffered so much because she was worried about him. He was truly unfilial.

She looked to Shen Xingmian for help, hoping to bring her grandmother back as soon as possible.

Shen Xingmian suddenly remembered that she hadn't discussed the important matter of bringing her maternal grandmother over with anyone yet. Her maternal grandfather and eldest uncle were in the military camp, and her mother and father were nowhere to be found during the day.

After tidying up the two rooms, she immersed herself in blacksmithing, and by the time she came out, it was already dark...

Oh dear, she should at least have discussed it with her aunt first.

She usually takes advantage of her spatial ability to arrange these trivial matters, and she forgot about it this time.

Although she felt she still had some say in the decision, it was no small matter since there were a few more people in the family, and she should have informed them in advance.

But since things have already come to this, we can only take the person back first, and then apologize to our parents and aunt.

The room was dimly lit, and she couldn't quite make out her grandmother's face when she stood at the doorway.

Now that we're closer, we realize that her good looks are indeed inherited; the shape of this maternal grandmother's eyes is remarkably similar to Xiao Yanyue's.

Furthermore, although she was called "Old Lady", she was not old at all. She only had some black hair at her temples, but not many wrinkles on her face.

Those black hairs must have been caused by the heartache of losing family members one after another.

Overall, she was an exceptionally beautiful aunt who made people feel fond of her just by looking at her face.

It was so different from what she had imagined an "old lady" to be.

It would be such a shame if such beautiful eyes were to go blind from crying...

Shen Xingmian came to the two of them and said gently, "Madam, my mother is Shen Yunting. You must know her. I've heard her mention you many times."

This wasn't entirely fabricated. Her mother and Xiao Yanyue's mother knew each other and were good friends when they were still young. However, they stopped seeing each other later to avoid suspicion.

This lady should know her mother.

Sure enough, the old lady reached out and took her hand, smiling gently, "Is this Mianmian? Of course I know your mother. That child has always been lively and very lovable."

Come here, let your great-aunt take a good look at you.

Shen Xingmian only realized then that she should call her great-aunt. She had never had any relatives before and had never paid attention to these kinds of titles.

Fortunately, it's not too late to find out now.

“Since Great-Aunt wants to see it, then of course we should see it more clearly,” Shen Xingmian replied with a smile.

Liang Yueran, Xiao Yanyue's maternal grandmother, and Liang Wanrong did not understand what Shen Xingmian was saying.

The room was quite dark, and Liang Yueran couldn't see clearly, so she thought Shen Xingmian was going to get closer to show her.

As a result, she didn't know what was happening, but the scene in front of her gradually became clearer!

At first, she thought it was her imagination. After all, her eyes weren't completely ruined. It was normal for them to work a little better occasionally, but it wouldn't last long before they were blurry again.

Later, she blinked several times and found that she could still see very clearly, even Wanrong, who was guarding the door, was clearly visible.

She incredulously released her hand from her grandson's, raised it to rub her eyes, and found that when she opened them again, she could still see clearly!

She excitedly stood up, this time without stumbling at all, and headed straight for the door. She wanted to see if she could spot the small peach tree by the door in the moonlight.

Seeing this, Liang Wanrong, not knowing what had happened, also hurriedly chased after them.

Liang Yueran was shocked once again.

You can actually see it!

"My God, what's going on..." she couldn't help but murmur to herself.

Shen Xingmian and Xiao Yanyue exchanged a glance inside the room, and upon seeing this scene, they couldn't help but laugh.

Xiao Yanyue's eyes were full of gratitude as she took Shen Xingmian's arm and said solemnly, "Mianmian, thank you. I know that this thank you is too little to express my gratitude, but right now, I really don't have anything to offer."

After saying that, he lowered his head in shame.

Shen Xingmian slapped him on the head without hesitation, pretending to be angry and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Your maternal grandmother? What's the difference between her and my maternal grandmother? You're talking as if you won't be filial to my maternal grandfather in the future, you little rascal."

Xiao Yanyue immediately raised her head, her eyes shimmering with light. She nodded emphatically, her eyes filled with joy and anticipation, and said, "Of course I will, I will also be filial to my master and mistress, and I will..."

At this point, he immediately stopped talking. Luckily, he almost said something irreversible!

Shen Xingmian crossed her arms and glanced at him sideways, asking with a mixture of suspicion and certainty, "You don't mean to say that you'll be filial to me too, do you?"

Xiao Yanyue couldn't help but turn her head and laugh, her shoulders shaking with laughter.

Shen Xingmian rarely saw him show such a childlike side, so she decided to indulge him and not hold it against him.

In my eyes, he's still just a kid, and there's no problem with him being filial to me!

Footsteps sounded outside, and the two had returned. They regained their normal expressions and stopped joking.

“Grandmother, Mianmian has some extraordinary medical skills. She heard from Grandma Wanrong that you have difficulty seeing, so she came along. How are you feeling now?”

Shen Xingmian nodded silently in her heart, thinking that the phrase "exquisite skill" was a very apt description.

That's wonderful!

Upon hearing this explanation, the two people opposite were momentarily stunned. No, this was truly medical skill, not magical magic?

They're almost fifty years old, and they've never heard of such a bizarre medical technique!

Not to mention the "observation, auscultation, inquiry and palpation" that doctors emphasize when examining patients, surely acupuncture and medicine must be administered during the treatment process?

But just now, this little girl only touched me once, without any process, and I was able to see it clearly. It's really hard to believe that this is medical skill!

Oh well, whatever the kids say goes. It's a good thing after all, why think so much?

Do we really have to get to the bottom of this and argue about it?

That's repaying kindness with enmity.

She had been so focused on her eyes that she only realized now that her whole body felt much lighter.

I had been worrying too much before, and my body was not only weak, but also had many minor ailments. If I hadn't been taking medicine and taking care of myself, I probably wouldn't have made it to the North.
