Chapter 110 Grandma Wu
Soon Ning Jing and Boss Ning followed Wu Min to the courtyard in the town.
This is the largest yard in the town and was originally allocated to workers for living.
The yard is deserted now, but there are many corners of the wall that have been blackened by smoke, and you can still see its former popularity.
Wu Min led Ning Jing to the main room and saw an old man sitting in a wheelchair. When he saw Wu Min coming, he smiled peacefully and said, "Min Min is here. Who are these two children?"
The old man had never met Ning Jing and Boss Ning, but Minmin usually didn't bring outsiders here.
Wu Min looked at the elderly woman in the wheelchair. This was her mother. She was only fifty years old, but her hair was already gray, her face was covered with wrinkles, and her legs were broken...
"Mom, I'm sorry I'm not capable, I..."
The old man interrupted Wu Min and said, "My child, things will get better and better. I believe our lives will be even better in the future! It is the country that has given us a good life."
"Yes, thank the country and thank the party." Wu Min is an old woman who is willing to give everything for the country. Following the old woman's words, their lives are indeed getting better and better.
"Mother, this is the tranquility I told you about."
The old man looked at Ning Jing with eyes full of kindness and gratitude and said, "Thank you, little friend. You have given Min Min a new life!"
Ning Jing walked up and said, "Hello, Grandma! Aunt Wu wanted me to come and help you out this time."
Ning Jing walked up and held the old man's hand, placing her index and middle fingers right on the old man's artery.
This is what Wu Min asked Ning Jing to do, not to go there under the pretext of seeing a doctor, as this would not give the old man hope and would disappoint him.
Unfortunately, the old man saw all this, but he did not expose it. This was the child's filial piety.
Boss Ningjing and the old man chatted about all sorts of things.
The old woman's surname was Wu, so she asked them to call her Grandma Wu.
Ning Jing knew from taking Grandma Wu's pulse that her body was drained. In fact, it could be seen without taking the pulse. Grandma Wu was too thin, so thin that she couldn't even hold up her clothes. She was severely malnourished. The injury on her leg was sustained a few years ago, but it was not treated properly and broke out now.
Ningjing also found out one thing by taking Grandma Wu's pulse: whether the knot in her heart had been untied.
At the beginning, Grandma Wu gave Ningjing a very peaceful, kind and strong appearance. Such old people are generally very open-minded and rarely have any emotional problems.
So Ning Jing told Boss Ning her opinion when she went out one time. Ning Jing didn't know how to ask, but she thought it would be better to leave everything to Boss Ning.
Seeing how powerful her elder brother was, Ning Jing soon understood the old man's problem:
It turned out that the old woman was once the daughter of a landlord. She had studied abroad and had always been open to new ideas. She also joined the Communist Party of China and worked hard for the liberation of the people...
But due to historical reasons, Grandma Wu can't find Grandpa Wu.
Because he saved her, Grandpa Wu was captured by the enemy and there has been no news since...
Grandma Wu’s concern is about Grandpa Wu, but where is Grandpa Wu?
This is a big problem. Even the photos of Grandpa Wu are only from over 30 years ago. What does he look like now? No one knows, or maybe he is no longer around...
Boss Ning couldn't bear to see his sister struggling and said directly, "Leave a message for Grandma Wu to tell her where Grandpa Wu is."
Ning Jing felt that her elder brother was lying, but she couldn't think of a better way at the moment. It was a white lie!
But Ning Jing always felt like she was lying and felt a little guilty, but as long as Grandma Wu wanted to live, her body could be recovered.
Ning Jing knew from taking Grandma Wu's pulse that she seldom ate. With such a big house, eating was not a problem, but Grandma Wu was very harsh on her health.
I only ate a bowl of bran rice every day. Now few people eat bran, and life is gradually improving...
And there is also Wu Min, a daughter, and Wu Jinhang, a boy, who can get 200 yuan in child support every month, which is about the same as an ordinary worker's half-year salary. How come Grandma Wu doesn't look like she is short of food?
Ning Jingning chatted with Grandma Wu for half an hour and then came out, and saw Wu Min waiting outside the door.
