Chapter 129: Still Missing an Opportunity
"My child, I'm sorry for not going back to find you after all these years!"
Mr. Lu's face showed both joy at finding his granddaughter and guilt towards her.
"It's okay. I heard my elder brother talk about the pawn shop incident. You all thought I was in trouble with him."
Song Youyou shook her head.
She knew that she was not abandoned, but a child loved by her parents, and that was enough.
In her previous life, family affection was something she sought but could not obtain.
In the end, this hurdle had long been overcome, and the Gu family allowed her to experience true family love.
And recognizing the Lu family again was an unexpected surprise.
She was very satisfied, so she didn't blame anything, such as the unsolvable problem of not getting her back early.
Because this is not something that can be controlled by subjective will.
"I'm actually very happy to recognize you guys."
"Okay, okay, good kid, you've been wronged because you have no family to protect you..."
Her open-mindedness made Mr. Lu wipe his eyes.
How could a child from such a young age be so smart and sensible?
It must be because I have experienced so much!
Mr. Lu was so heartbroken!
Song Youyou was not used to the sentimental atmosphere. She shook her head to indicate that it was okay and changed the subject.
"Uncle Wang, how is Grandpa's current health?"
She looked at Wang Sen, who was standing beside Mr. Lu's bed, a man who looked to be only about fifty years old and had very little hair on his head.
According to Lu Liangchen, he is the doctor who is specifically responsible for taking care of Mr. Lu's health and is very familiar with his physical condition.
"The old man..."
Wang Sen glanced at Mr. Lu lying on the bed, his face looking a little embarrassed.
Just now, Mr. Lu told him not to tell her about his health condition.
What can he say about this?
"Uncle Wang, just tell me the truth. Or do you think that since I'm not from the Lu family, I have no right to ask about Grandpa's affairs..."
"Of course not! You are of course a member of the Lu family. If you have no right to ask, then who has the right?"
Before Wang Sen could say anything, Mr. Lu spoke first.
Afraid she would misunderstand.
"Wang Sen, why are you hesitating? Youyou is my granddaughter. Just tell her what she wants to know. Why are you looking at me?"
Wang Sen: “…”
Who just told him not to say it, so as not to worry his granddaughter?
Is he afraid that his granddaughter will be angry, so he puts the blame on him?
Wang Sen straightened the few remaining tufts of hair on his head and immediately told the truth.
“The old man’s condition…is not optimistic.
At least with my current ability, I can't cure the old man's heart disease.
All I can do is to control the disease from getting worse.
This is only possible if the old man cooperates with me.
If the old man is always so uncooperative..."
The more Wang Sen spoke, the more serious his expression became.
Mr. Lu quickly raised his fist and coughed, trying to remind him not to say too much.
Before Wang Sen understood, Song Youyou frowned and asked:
"Grandpa, he won't cooperate with the treatment?"
"Um."
Wang Sen nodded, as if he had finally found someone to talk to.
"People with heart problems should at least have regular sleep and rest routines, right? But when the old man gets busy, he tends to forget about food and sleep..."
"Well, it's not as serious as you say. I only feel this way occasionally. It's nothing serious. How can this heart disease have anything to do with eating and sleeping?"
Mr. Lu waved his hand, disagreeing with Wang Senmiao's statement.
Song Youyou, who was already frowning, immediately said seriously:
"Grandpa, what you said is wrong. People with heart disease need to regulate their diet. A good sleep schedule and moderate exercise are also necessary to improve their physical fitness."
Seeing the serious expression on her pretty face, Mr. Lu quickly nodded in agreement.
"Yeah, Youyou is right. Grandpa will definitely eat well, exercise, and sleep well in the future."
There was no hint of reluctance in that cheerful look.
Wang Sen fell silent.
It seems that all his previous nagging was not as good as a single word from the little girl?
"Also, the old man should be careful not to get too excited or too angry."
Wang Sen immediately took the opportunity to complain.
"The old man's illness today was caused by excessive emotion during the meeting."
"Grandpa..." Song Youyou even frowned.
Hearing the little girl calling him grandpa in a sweet voice, Mr. Lu felt that nothing was a problem anymore.
He nodded hurriedly: "Okay, okay, I really remember this time, and I will not get angry easily in the future. In order to spend more time with my granddaughter, my old bones can't be easily broken. I will listen to you."
Wang Sen: ...Isn’t that what he said? What does it mean to listen to Youyou?
However, looking at the old man lying on the bed with a pale face, who couldn't help but greet his granddaughter with a smile, Wang Sen was happy for him from the bottom of his heart and said nothing more.
He and the old man have so many friends around him, and they know how much this old man has contributed to the country.
Wang Sen has always admired his hard work, dedication to the country and the people, and his lifelong dedication.
Being able to find his loved ones in his old age and being so happy is the blessing he deserves.
"Alas, it's also my fault that I have limited abilities and can't cure the old man's illness.
Unfortunately, in today's time, many powerful people have disappeared.
Either they were labeled as cliques or the five black categories and sent down to the countryside, or they went into hiding because of the panic.
Therefore, many great masters of traditional Chinese medicine have disappeared.
Otherwise, if he were to meet a great Chinese medicine practitioner who specializes in treating heart diseases, the old man's illness might actually be cured."
Is Chinese medicine powerful?
This made Song Youyou think of the old master in the countryside.
Her master was also demoted. He was the successor of the Golden Needle School. Although his acupuncture skills could not bring the dead back to life, they were almost there.
She had witnessed with her own eyes how he saved an elderly man who was critically ill and lived in the same cowshed from the brink of death with just a few needles.
Song Youyou also learned all her knowledge of pharmacology from him.
Once a teacher, always a father.
Song Youyou has always wanted to get the old man back.
After all, Old Man Xu was demoted because he committed a crime, so she didn't dare ask the people from the Gu and Lu families to help rashly, for fear that they would be taken advantage of and harmed by those with ulterior motives.
After all, this is a special time, and any excuse will lead to oppression by the powerful.
This matter still lacks an opportunity.
When the opportunity comes, she will get the old man back from the cowshed, and then she can go to join the army with peace of mind.
He can also take care of Mr. Lu's heart disease and Grandma Gu's leg disease.
