Chu Tian strode to Pingping's bedside, bent down and looked at Pingping, "Pingping, tell me, does the wound hurt?"

Pingping nodded, "Hmm..."

"Can you bear it?"

"OK····"

"Then bear with it for a while, okay?"

"good····"

"good···"

Chu Tian smiled and gently touched Pingping's little face.

Yao Xiujuan was stunned and looked at Chu Tian in disbelief. "Brother Tian, ​​why do you have to endure it? Didn't the doctor say that if it hurts a lot, you can take painkillers?"

Chu Tian straightened up and explained, "Before I went out to pick up Xinxin, I went to the doctor's office first. He told me that after the anesthetic wears off, there will be tolerable pain. As long as you can bear it, it's best not to take painkillers..."

The main reason is that the doctor said that Pingping is still young and painkillers have many side effects. If you can bear it, it is best to take less or even not take it. When you really can't bear it, it will still be time to take it again.

It makes sense. Today's medical drugs are not as advanced as they will be in a few decades, and many drugs have more side effects than they will in the future.

Chu Tian looked at Yao Xiujuan's still worried expression and sighed inwardly, "You and Xinxin stay with Pingping. I'll go ask the doctor."

After Chu Tian left, Yao Xiujuan sat down beside the bed and looked at Pingping lying on the bed, "Pingping, you..."

"Mom, I'm not hurt."

Pingping knew that his mother was timid, so he quickly gave Yao Xiujuan a faint smile. When he just woke up, his mind was still confused, so he cried out in pain. If it were now, he would definitely not tell his mother that it hurt and make her worry.

Yao Xiujuan held Pingping's hand lovingly, "Pingping, if you feel any pain, you must tell me. Don't keep it to yourself."

Pingping nodded obediently, "Okay."

Xinxin sat on the other side of the bed, holding Pingping's other hand, and asked softly, "Brother, I haven't been home for a few days. How did you end up in the hospital? Also, what is this appendicitis Dad mentioned? Is it something you ate that caused it?"

Pingping shook her head. "I didn't eat anything random... I don't know what happened. My stomach started to hurt a couple of days ago. I thought I was going to have diarrhea, but I didn't..."

Yao Xiujuan was surprised. "It started hurting two days ago? Why didn't you tell your parents earlier?"

Pingping pursed his lips and said, "I, I thought it was just diarrhea."

Yao Xiujuan opened her mouth, wanting to blame Pingping for not saying he was not feeling well earlier, but seeing how weak he looked, she didn't say anything out loud, but instead whispered a word.

"Pingping, if you feel uncomfortable in the future, you must tell Mom and Dad as soon as possible. If you suddenly become like this again, Mom will be scared to death, do you know that?"

Pingping nodded quickly, "Mom, I'll remember it."

"good···"

Yao Xiujuan sighed, touched his little face, and then looked at Xinxin.

"Xinxin, you too, if you feel uncomfortable at any time, you must tell your parents."

Xinxin quickly responded and assured, "Mom, I'll remember it."

At this time, Chu Tian came over with a doctor. The doctor checked the wound and nodded with satisfaction when he saw that there was no bleeding. He asked Pingping a few questions and finally looked at Chu Tian and gave instructions.

"Lie down for a while, then get out of bed and walk around. It will definitely be a little painful at first, but you have to walk, otherwise it will be difficult to pass gas, and if you don't pass gas, you can't eat."

After a pause, he looked at Pingping again and praised with a smile, "Young man, you are very strong. Don't be afraid. You will be fine soon."

Pingping nodded with her eyes curved, "Uncle Doctor, I'm not afraid. I want to be a doctor in the future!"

The doctor laughed out loud, stepped forward, bent down, and touched his head. "Then you must study hard. The road to medical study has no end, you have to learn until you are old!"

Pingping said with a determined look, "I'm not afraid. I want to perform surgery and cure illnesses like you, the doctor!"

"What a great ambition! Uncle believes in you!"

The doctor nodded appreciatively, then turned to look at Chu Tian and praised him generously, "Your son is quite good. He looks like a pretty boy, but he's tougher than some adults. Many adults would cry out in pain after the anesthesia wears off, but a child like him can endure it without even a single cry. He's really good."

"Train him well, and he will surely become a great talent in the future!"

Chu Tian smiled and nodded, "Yes, as long as he is willing to learn, whether it is to go to college or anything else, I will support him..."

After the doctor left, Xinxin looked at Chu Tian in disbelief, "Dad, can I take the college entrance exam now?"

Chu Tian glanced at Xin Xin in confusion, "Well, you don't know?"

Xinxin shook her head and answered honestly, "All the students in my class live on campus. No one has ever been home, so we don't know."

Chu Tian was surprised, "Didn't your teacher tell you?"

"without···"

After a pause, Xinxin said happily, "Are Sister Daya and Brother Xinming going to take the college entrance exam?"

Chu Tian smiled and said, "Well, your sister Daya has resigned from the school, and brother Xinming no longer works as an apprentice in the coal mine. He is now reviewing at home every day."

Daya clapped her hands happily, "Oh, that's great! I'll have brothers and sisters who are college students in the future."

At this moment, a discordant and mocking voice came from the side, "You really don't know how big your face is. You still want to apply for university? Do you have the ability to pass?"

Chu Tian and his companions followed the sound and found the middle-aged man lying on the bed next door. He looked at them with disdain, and the way he looked them up and down seemed very rude and impolite!

Originally, Chu Tian didn't want to pay attention to people like this who just said the grapes were sour, but who is Xinxin?

He was the one who dared to point out the teacher's mistakes in public at school. He couldn't bear it anymore and stood up and looked directly at the man on the hospital bed.

"Grandpa, do you know that talking about people behind their backs is very uncultured?"

"Grandpa, didn't your parents teach you to respect others and be polite since you were a child?"

The man's face suddenly turned red when he heard this, and he immediately cursed unhappily, "You little beast, do you know how to respect the elderly and love the young, you..."

Originally, after hearing Xinxin's words, Yao Xiujuan wanted to tell Xinxin not to talk nonsense, but when she heard the middle-aged man scolding Xinxin, she became strong as a mother and no longer hid behind Chu Tian timidly as usual. She directly pulled away Chu Tian who stood up to speak, walked up to him, pointed at the man's nose and scolded him angrily.

"You old beast, if you can't talk, then don't talk. What do you mean my child doesn't know how to respect the elderly and love the young? How is she disrespectful? She even calls you grandpa, and what about you? You are the one with no quality and no manners!"

"You're spewing shit all the time. Did you go to the toilet to pick out feces for lunch? Your mouth stinks so bad. Drink some urine and rinse your mouth out. Stop opening your mouth and stinking others!"

As he said that, he spat in his direction, "Bah, what the hell..."
