Chapter 63 Qin Yang stood and looked at it. The most...
"Seven thousand yuan!" Thinking about the number his granddaughter said at night, Chen Aiguo was so excited that he couldn't fall asleep for a long time.
"Panpan also said that we can use the money to buy a house and start a company. Can we start that company?" Hearing her husband's whisper, Xu Chunhua, who was sleeping next to him, also turned over quietly.
"If others can open a business, why can't we? Seven thousand yuan might not buy a house in the town center, but we can buy a bungalow in a slightly more secluded part of town. After we sell the house, we can pool the money to renovate it and then start the company."
Chen Aiguo became excited when the topic came up. He then turned over, pulled the pillow under him, and carefully told his wife about the various benefits of this matter if it could really be accomplished.
"In the end, all you care about is your reputation and your nephews. Our Panpan will only be fifteen by Chinese New Year. At fifteen, she has neither an ID card nor the qualifications to start a company. You only think about how powerful you will be in the village if we really open a company, and how much you will be able to show off in front of your brothers and nephews."
"Have you ever thought about this: if you used your granddaughter's money to start a company, under whose name would it be registered? What if your two brothers and five nephews started fighting over the company? Or do you cling to the old idea that you can just give Panpan a little bit of everything and leave everything else to your real family?"
Across from Chen Pan's room, the light was still on, and from inside came the sounds of him flipping through a book, writing and erasing. Lowering her voice to a minimum, Xu Chunhua spoke the key to the matter.
"Don't you know what kind of person I am? The house is being bought with Panpan's savings. Our granddaughter trusts us so much that she gave us 7,000 yuan tonight and said she'll leave all the subsequent house purchase matters to us. With her trust in us, the house will definitely be registered in her name. And we're both this age, how could I still be so confused?"
As for the company, it's ours to open, so it naturally belongs to our family. If others want to put their names on it, they'll have to pay. Why would I give them a free pass without paying? Don't worry, I'll ask Xiao Wu to the east and the Xue family next door about these matters tomorrow, and I'll definitely take care of it," Chen Aiguo assured, his voice low.
Turning her head and looking at his face seriously, Xu Chunhua slowly showed a relaxed expression: "It's okay if you can always think like this. Others may not know how well-behaved Panpan is and how hard it is for her to earn this money, but we have always seen it."
"Got it!" Looking at the small alarm clock beside him, he saw that his granddaughter was still catching up on her homework at 1:30. Thinking back to the past seven days, she had come back every day and taken out her things to sort them out, and then finally brought them back in bags at a time, a task that took two or three hours. Thinking about the wonderful vacation, his granddaughter had been getting up at five o'clock every day to sort out her things, and she had lost a lot of weight in just a few days. Chen Aiguo made a serious promise and then said nothing more.
During the entire National Day holiday, teachers of various subjects at Chen Pan’s school assigned them a lot of homework.
Chen Pan, who had no time to do his homework before, stayed up late and wrote until 4:30 that night.
Even though she went to bed again afterwards, she didn't really fall asleep.
Anyway, when Chen Pan went to school with his schoolbag on his back, he walked unsteadily.
After two classes in the morning, Chen Pan was doing calisthenics in the playground when he felt something was wrong. He bent down and paused for a moment, then his vision went dark and he fell forward subconsciously.
Chen Pan felt like she was just unconscious for a few seconds, but when she regained consciousness, she found herself on someone's back.
"Who are you?" The man's back was both thin and strong, a contradictory physique that clearly didn't belong to his grandfather, who had been doing manual labor for years. So after regaining a little consciousness, Chen Pan subconsciously asked.
"It's your brother Yangyang. Your grandfather went to look at houses with Xiao Wu early in the morning. I had no choice but to ask your brother Yangyang to pick you up from the school." Thinking of the scene when she received the call from the school just now, Xu Chunhua was scared.
"You kid, what time did you stay up last night? Didn't I tell you to go to bed early when I went to the bathroom?" Grandma Chen, who went to bed at two o'clock last night, couldn't help but scold her granddaughter again while supporting her from behind.
"I don't know. I thought I was going to be fine—"
Chen Pan's voice was very small, and she lost consciousness again as she spoke.
There is a school doctor at No. 6 Middle School. He said that Chen Pan fell asleep due to overwork, so he asked them to take the child home to have a good rest.
Originally, Xu Chunhua asked Qin Yang to come over and ask him to send Chen Pan home.
But seeing her current situation, Xu Chunhua changed her mind temporarily. After saying a few words to Qin Yang, who was carrying Chen Pan on his back, she quickly reached out to stop a car on the side of the road.
So when Chen Pan regained consciousness, she seemed to be receiving an IV drip at the Liuping Town Hospital.
"Chen Pan, are you awake? Your grandma went home to get some money and made you lunch."
When Chen Pan opened his eyes and subconsciously looked around, Qin Yang's voice came from the side door.
After taking his eyes away from the single beds around him and the patients on each bed, Chen Pan subconsciously looked at Qin Yang who had just entered.
Qin Yang came in wearing a brand new pair of black wide-leg jeans. His top was also new, a brown jacket that Chen Pan had never seen before. The jacket had a nice shape, with rivets and two metal chains lining the pockets. For this era, his outfit was considered exceptionally stylish and fashionable.
Seeing him dressed so formally, Chen Pan said reflexively: "Brother Qin, thank you for today. You are like this, is there something going on today?"
"Actually, it's nothing big. It's just what I told you a month ago about opening an advertising design company with someone else. Today we made an appointment to go see the factory with the agent." Qin Yang sat down beside Chen Pan's bed while talking.
"Now then—"
Unexpectedly, he really had something to do today. Chen Pan was shocked and immediately wanted to get up subconsciously.
"Ah!!" But at this moment her head seemed to be filled with lead. She got up a little, but then fell back onto the hospital bed with a scream.
"Be careful!" Frightened by Chen Pan's behavior, Qin Yang immediately stood up and quickly supported her shoulders.
"Yes, be careful, classmate, your blood sugar is still very low, don't rush so suddenly."
As Qin Yang supported Chen Pan's shoulders, a middle-aged doctor in a white coat slowly walked in from behind. He looked up at Chen Pan's face, then glanced at the glucose saline solution Chen Pan was currently hanging on, and then slowly said, "Little girl, hasn't your grandma brought you lunch yet?"
"She should be here soon!" After calculating the approximate time when Grandma Chen would leave in his mind, Qin Yang stood up straight and answered the question.
"That's fine. It's twelve o'clock now. If your grandma isn't back by twelve-fifteen, go out and buy her a bowl of noodles. Try to get her lunch before twelve-thirty. She's naturally weak, so she needs to be taken care of. From now on, you must remember to make sure she eats and goes to bed on time. Don't stay up late, don't drink cold water frequently, and don't overwork herself."
The middle-aged doctor who examined Chen Pan and prescribed medicine gave his usual instructions.
Qin Yang, who was dressed very fashionably today and was being secretly watched by many aunties and girls in the hospital, immediately nodded and said yes.
Seeing that he seemed to really understand, the doctor turned his gaze to Chen Pan, who had just raised his body slightly and then his face suddenly turned blue.
"Are you feeling dizzy and having a headache?"
Seeing that she seemed to be in great pain, the doctor took a few steps forward while speaking, then raised his hands and pressed them on Chen Pan's temples.
"Yeah, I still feel a little nauseous!"
Chen Pan, who had been silent all this time, finally calmed down at this time.
"Vomiting and dizziness are normal. Your blood sugar is very low right now. Even if you're given glucose, you won't recover quickly."
The middle-aged doctor moved his hand to Chen Pan's right hand and began to press the base of her palm again. "How could you, at such a young age, exhaust yourself to the point of fainting? I heard from your grandmother that you've been busy making money lately and stayed up late last night to catch up on your homework. No matter how important money is, does a little girl like you need to work so hard to earn it? No matter how important homework is, is it more important than your health? If you can't finish a homework, then don't finish it. Is it worth overdrawing your health and staying up all night?"
The doctor kept talking and took out a candy for Chen Pan. Chen Pan, who was dizzy and dazed, held the candy in his mouth, lowered his eyes and listened attentively.
Chen Pan had truly forgotten to eat properly in the past few days. It should be said that if her stall business was good, she would often skip meals. She often felt like she had breakfast but didn't have time to eat, and even if she had lunch right next to her, she wouldn't bother eating it.
She hadn't eaten well for a few days and just stayed up a little last night, so Chen Pan thought she was fine. However, she didn't expect that she would faint in front of others.
The doctor said a few words to Chen Pan, and finally let him go and told him to take care of other patients.
Almost as soon as the middle-aged doctor left, Chen Pan's grandmother came in carrying a large lunch box.
"Panpan, you damned girl, you finally woke up! You scared me to death!"
When Grandma Chen came over, she opened the lunch box and started crying.
"grandmother--"
Chen Pan couldn't bear to see her cry, so he could only grit his teeth and sit up again to comfort her.
When Chen Pan sat up again, Qin Yang moved his mouth subconsciously. But in the end, seeing that Chen Pan had already sat up again, he didn't know what to say.
Later, Grandma Chen opened the lunch box and took out the porridge, side dishes and pancakes she had made. Chen Pan started to eat with shaking hands.
Qin Yang stood and watched for a moment, then finally couldn't help but whisper to the gray-haired Grandma Chen, "Grandma, the doctor just said Panpan is naturally weak. He told you to be more careful in the future. Don't let her stay up late, don't let her overwork, and don't let her come into contact with cold water too often. And be more punctual for meals. It's best to eat three meals a day on time, and don't delay them for too long."
"Yes, I heard it all. We will pay attention next time." After a moment of hesitation, Grandma Chen finally nodded slowly.
In fact, in the entire Chen family, apart from feeding livestock and herding cattle in the mountains during winter and summer vacations, Chen Pan was not asked to do anything else.
Other children of this age have almost all gone to the fields to harvest wheat, plant crops, and pick rapeseed and soybeans.
But Grandma Chen and Grandpa Chen never let Chen Pan do all these heavy work.
They just let her herd cattle, feed the pigs, chickens, ducks and rabbits. When things were a little busier, they let Chen Pan cook, and occasionally let her deliver food to the mountains, but she really didn't let her do any other work on the farm.
As for washing clothes and dishes, rural girls don’t do these things.
Grandma Chen, who has been working all her life and only had a little free time this year, agreed verbally at this moment, but deep down she was actually very confused and couldn't figure it out.
She didn't know what the problem was, but she was instinctively a little worried, a little aggrieved and confused.
