Volume 1 Chapter 473: A Family Outing, Vomiting
"We will shoulder the responsibility together as a family. If we live frugally, we will be able to get through it."
"That's right. We both have jobs, so we just need to spend these two years together."
The eldest son and daughter-in-law of the Ning family quickly expressed their opinions. They had been mentally prepared to come to Kyoto a long time ago, and if they lost the money, they could just earn it again!
It’s not like you’re just wasting money on an illness that can’t be cured. Why should you give up on an illness that can be cured?
At worst, the family can just live frugally for two years and we’ll be able to get through it.
"Okay, as a family, you can work together and get through this."
"If the medical expenses are really not enough, your mother and I still have some pension money, you can use that first."
"As long as they can be cured, these are all minor matters."
Grandpa Gu waved his hand. All he wanted was an attitude from his son-in-law's family.
I feel relieved that my son-in-law and his family are so caring and I feel that I did not choose the wrong person for my daughter.
"Your eldest brother and I have some savings. Although it's not much, it's enough for an emergency."
"Just ask if you need anything. You're welcome."
Mother Gu also expressed that she and Father Gu had earned a lot of money in the past two years, and although they had spent a lot, they still had some savings.
"Thank you, Dad, thank you, brother and sister-in-law."
"Thank you, brother and sister-in-law."
Gu Tong's eyes were red. She was glad that she had such good parents and brothers and sisters, otherwise she would have no idea what her family would face.
"Xiaotong will be hospitalized tomorrow, so don't worry about anything else."
"Mom and Dad are here, don't let your imagination run wild."
Grandma Gu comforted Gu Tong, and Gu Tong nodded, feeling relieved at last.
I always feel at ease when I am with my parents, no matter how old I am.
Sheng Wanyan did not express any opinion throughout the whole process. As a junior, she just needed to listen quietly to the affairs of the family elders.
The next day, Gu Tong was hospitalized. Ning's father could stay and take care of him for the first three months, and after that, only the eldest daughter-in-law could take care of him, while the youngest daughter-in-law would go to work and take care of the house.
If the eldest daughter-in-law is tired, she will take turns with the younger daughter-in-law to share the burden.
As soon as Gu Tong was hospitalized, the sense of urgency at home was relieved a lot in the past two days. The master of traditional Chinese medicine also took Gu Tong's illness into consideration for the sake of Grandpa Gu.
After a check-up, the doctor recommended conservative treatment, which was to first take care of the body, then do acupuncture, and use precious medicinal herbs to nourish the body and slowly recover.
As long as the doctor's advice is followed, there is an 80% chance that the patient will recover. Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu were relieved to hear this.
"The medicinal materials cannot be cut off. You must always have them ready."
"She was overworked and felt empty."
"But remember not to take too much, take it slow."
The master of traditional Chinese medicine explained the situation and gave many instructions, which Ning's father and the Ning family's eldest daughter-in-law wrote down.
"You can go to this shop to buy herbs. It's owned by an old friend of mine. They only have good herbs. Just say you're my patient."
The Chinese medicine master gave them an address. There are many medicinal materials that are not available in the hospital, so they have to buy them at the pharmacy.
"Okay, thank you, doctor."
Father Ning hurried to buy all the medicinal herbs that Gu Tong needed.
Sheng Wanyan also went to the hospital to check on Gu Tong and bought some nutritional supplements for her. Seeing that everything was well arranged, she followed Gu's mother back home.
The fact that Gu Tong was ill could not be concealed, and soon the entire compound knew about it.
But everyone has illnesses, so everyone just gossiped for a while and then went on with their own lives.
Wang Chunmei rolled her eyes after hearing this. The old man usually doesn't like to use favors. He was even unwilling to use favors when his husband got a promotion.
But for this married girl, he was willing to swallow his pride and ask the traditional Chinese medical expert to treat her.
There really is discrimination. It's clear that the fourth room is not taken seriously.
Wang Chunmei waited for Gu Tinghao to come back and then complained to him, which made Gu Tinghao very annoyed.
That's my aunt, and it's a matter of life and death! ! !
It's already this late, why is she still holding on to it?
"That's enough! You don't have to tell Grandpa what to do!"
"Just take care of yourself and don't cause any trouble!"
When Wang Chunmei heard him talking about herself, she instantly got angry and started arguing with him.
"What do you mean? Do you think I'm meddling in other people's affairs?"
"Gu Tinghao! What are you talking about! Am I not a member of your Gu family?"
"Why do you all treat me like a sinner when you see me?"
"No matter what, I gave birth to a great-grandson for your family. Even if I have no credit, I have worked hard!"
Wang Chunmei grabbed Gu Tinghao's arm and stopped him from leaving. Gu Tinghao took a deep breath. Why didn't she understand?
It was she who didn't consider the Gu family as her own home first! ! ! She only has the Wang family in her heart!
I have given her so many chances and have been waiting for her to wake up, but she is always the same and only cares about her own interests!
Only myself, no him, no children.
The reason why she loves Gu Jinmin so much is because Gu Jinmin is a boy and can help her gain a foothold.
Help her to become the one who stands at the highest point and becomes the one that everyone envies.
If Gu Jinmin’s surname wasn’t Gu, would she still love him so much?
In her heart, from beginning to end, there was only herself.

Sheng Wanyan and Gu Tingxiao had some free time after the Chinese New Year. It was already mid-February, and she wanted to take Yi Yi out to play before school started.
"You guys go as a family, Yi Yi hasn't played yet."
Gu Tong has her husband, son, and daughter-in-law to take care of her, so she doesn't need her mother Gu. This is a rare opportunity for her mother to rest at home for a few days.
When Yi Yi heard that she could go out to play, she quickly put on her favorite clothes, put on her schoolbag and waited.
"Let's go, take Yi Yi to the Forbidden City."
Sheng Wanyan looked at Yi Yi's expectant eyes and knew that she had wanted to go out for a long time. It happened that the family of three had never gone out to play before, so she could satisfy Yi Yi's childhood.
During this period, Gu Tingxiao visited famous places such as the Forbidden City, the Great Wall, the Old Summer Palace, the Hutongs, and the Summer Palace.
I also ate the most authentic roast duck and drank soy milk.
The first time Yi Yi drank soy milk, he was completely stunned and his head was buzzing from the smell.
"Give it to your dad."
Sheng Wanyan also couldn't get used to it. She could only drink half of it and couldn't stand any more.
Gu Tingxiao was a native Kyoto native who loved soy milk. He drank up all the remaining drinks from the mother and daughter without hesitation.
Yi Yi saw that he drank so happily that he thought there was something wrong with his taste buds.
He tentatively drank two more sips, then vomited directly, all over Gu Tingxiao's pants.
Gu Tingxiao's face turned dark instantly, and he quickly apologized to his old father. Sheng Wanyan watched with a smile.
It's so rare to see this guy being so angry with his daughter, it would be strange if I didn't appreciate it.
"I'm sorry, Dad."
"Well, I forgive you."
Gu Tingxiao took a deep breath and went to the toilet to clean the stain on his pants. The soy milk was milky white, and it really looked like the real thing when it stuck to his pants...
The couple and their children played for five full days before they were completely satisfied. They all felt that they had seen a lot of new things.
