Chapter 296 Bao Pandi is sick
Yu Qiang opened and closed his mouth several times, and after a long while, he whispered, "Mom is old, and her thoughts are a bit... next time you have something to say to her, talk to her nicely, and don't say harsh words that will make her feel uncomfortable."
Qian Lan sneered in her heart, but said on the surface: "I understand. I will pay attention next time."
After saying that, Qian Lan went to the bedroom to get some underwear and fetched some water to take a bath.
Bao Panddi didn't think there was anything wrong with what she said. After Qian Lan finished speaking, she heard no more sound outside. She knew that the quarrel did not break out, and she made a frustrated "tsk".
I decided to get up a few more times tonight and give Qian Lan a good lesson.
Anyway, she can catch up on her sleep during the day, but Qian Lan can't catch up on her sleep because she has to work during the day.
Qian Lan was woken up six times in the first half of the night. She knew that the old witch was deliberately making trouble for her, so she simply refused to sleep. She snored loudly and kicked the old witch from time to time as if she had a cramp.
The old witch called her, but she pretended to be sleeping soundly and did not open her eyes.
After a night of tossing and turning, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law basically couldn't sleep.
Bao Pandi finally fell asleep after waiting for Qian Lan to get up. But before he had slept for long, Qian Lan called him to have breakfast.
When Qian Lan went out after breakfast, she met Wang Tiaohua and several nearby neighbors who were out shopping.
Seeing her yawning constantly, Wang Tiaohua asked her, "Xiao Qian, you didn't sleep at night. You keep yawning and your eye circles are so dark."
"Ahaha~" Qian Lan covered her mouth and yawned, "I really didn't sleep. My mother-in-law woke up six times in one night. Every time she got up, I had to help her out of bed and get her a spittoon. I couldn't sleep at all."
"Your mother-in-law has woken up six times at night. I'm afraid she has some illness." Wang Tiaohua said with eyes wide open.
Another female neighbor also said, "Exactly. They say we women can't hold our urine because we've had so many children. But at our age, we only wake up once or twice a night. Your mother-in-law wakes up six times a night. I'm afraid she really has some disease."
"Diabetes?" said a female neighbor.
"My mother-in-law had diabetes and also had to get up frequently at night, but she didn't take it seriously. Later, her kidneys were damaged by diabetes, and she passed away in her fifties. Xiao Qian, you and your Yu Qiang must take this seriously."
"Is it that serious?" Qian Lan frowned and said, "Then I have to ask my Yu Qiang to take her to the hospital."
"Xiao Qian is still filial."
"Isn't it? Even if she is her own daughter, she can't stand her mother's way of getting up at night. Xiao Qian is still so patient to serve her mother-in-law."
As soon as she arrived at the noodle shop, Qian Lan complained to Yu Hui and Gu Hongmei about her mother-in-law's behavior in the evening, and said that she would be fed with multi-grain steamed bread starting tomorrow.
When she got home from get off work in the evening, Qian Lan called Yu Qiang to the room where her mother-in-law and mother-in-law lived and said she had something to tell him.
"Mom, do you have to wake up five or six times every night at home too?" Qian Lan asked very seriously.
Bao Pandi's eyes rolled, a hint of mockery flashed in them, "Yeah, I get up five or six times at night at home too."
Qian Lan couldn't stand it anymore and wanted to tell Qiangzi that he was deliberately tormenting her.
"How long has this situation been going on?" Qian Lan asked again.
Bao Pandi: "It's been several years."
"Yu Qiang." Qian Lan looked at Yu Qiang with a serious expression and said, "Take a day off tomorrow and let's go to the hospital to check Mom out. She might have diabetes!"
What disease?
diabetes?
What is diabetes?
Bao Pandi: "I'm not sick, I won't go to the hospital."
Qian Lan: "Whose good person would get up five or six times in one night?"
"I've asked Aunt Wang and the others. They're the same age as Mom, have more children than Mom, and only wake up once or twice at night."
"When people heard our mom was getting up five or six times at night, they said she might be sick and told us to take it seriously."
"Some people say it's a symptom of diabetes. This disease is very scary when it's not controlled. It can damage the kidneys, rot the feet, and cause heart disease and brain problems. The person can suddenly die."
Yu Qiang: Indeed, who is a good person who would wake up five or six times a night?
He's really worried that he might have diabetes.
Yu Qiang also became nervous, "Mom, I'll take a day off tomorrow and take you to the hospital for a checkup."
"I won't go. Qiangzi, you have to believe me. I'm really not sick."
She only gets up twice a night, and she got up so many times on purpose just to bother Qian Lan. Why would she spend money on going to the hospital for a check-up?
Bao Pandi was very averse to hospitals, thinking that they were not good places. Although many people were saved there, many also died. The place was filled with negative energy and was prone to attracting bad things.
"Mom, there's something wrong with you! Don't be afraid to see a doctor. Let's go to the hospital tomorrow and see a doctor. If you're sick, we'll get treatment."
Yu Qiang knew that her mother was just afraid of seeing a doctor. In the past, whenever she felt unwell, she would just put it off and refused to see a doctor.
"But I'm not sick!" Bao Pandi raised his voice.
Qian Lan: "Mom, don't be stubborn. Let's go to the hospital tomorrow. The complications of this disease are really serious. I'm not trying to scare you."
"I won't go. I won't go even if I die." Bao Pandi turned his face away angrily, not looking at Yu Qiang and Qian Lan.
Why can’t Qiangzi understand what I’m saying?
Bao Pandi felt that his son didn't understand what he was saying, and Yu Qiang felt that his mother didn't understand what he was saying.
Qian Lan looked at Yu Qiang and frowned. "Yu Qiang, I've asked people whose relatives have had this disease, and they said that even with doctors, this disease can't be cured. It can only be controlled."
"Control means controlling the sugar intake in the diet and taking medication to control the rise in blood sugar. As long as the blood sugar is stable, there will be no serious complications."
"Since Mom doesn't want to go to the hospital, why don't we find a way to control her blood sugar? What do you think?"
Yu Qiang looked helpless. His mother was so stubborn and didn't want to go to the hospital, so this was the only option at the moment.
"I'll also take some time tomorrow to go to the military hospital and ask the doctor."
"OK."
Bao Pandi breathed a sigh of relief because he didn't have to go to the hospital.
At night, Qian Lan still woke up five times.
The next day, Yu Qiang left work early and went to the military hospital. The doctor said that his mother's condition was indeed a symptom of diabetes. If the elderly woman did not want to come to the hospital or take medicine, she could first control the high blood sugar through diet.
If blood sugar is under control and stabilized, the condition of frequently waking up at night will also be alleviated.
Yu Qiang stayed in the hospital for half an hour and then left with a list written by the doctor indicating what he could and could not eat.
I also went to the grocery store and bought a few pounds of corn flour, buckwheat flour, and buckwheat noodles.
When he returned home in the evening, Yu Qiang cooked rice, fried two dishes, and made a bowl of buckwheat noodles with less oil and salt for his mother.
"Mom, eat this."
Bao Pandi looked at the dark, bland noodles in front of him, frowned, and asked, "What is this?"
Yu Qiang: "This is buckwheat noodles."
Bao Pandi: "You guys are all eating, why are you giving me buckwheat noodles? I want to eat rice too."
She ate some mushy noodles at noon, and she didn't want to eat noodles at night. She just wanted to eat some rice and stir-fried vegetables, and this buckwheat noodles didn't look tasty.
