Volume 1 Chapter 476 Visiting the Savior 1
"One of them lives in the family quarters of the medical school, and another couple lives in the family quarters of the University of Tokyo."
"We'll bring Yi Yi to visit in a couple of days."
Sheng Wanyan nodded, turned around and went to the Overseas Chinese Store to buy things. This was a big deal and must be taken seriously.
When Gu's mother knew that she was going to visit the benefactor who saved Gu Tingxiao, she took a leave of absence the next day to prepare things for her.
It’s not good to take too much. After all, the Gu family repaid the favor in the first place by helping to arrange the return to the city and were very generous in giving money and tickets.
But if they take too little, it would seem that the family is not sincere. After all, this is a matter of saving lives.
"Bring two cans of tea, two cans of malted milk, two pounds of cakes, a bag of White Rabbit candy, and two pounds of meat."
"If you bring too much, it might be a psychological burden. It's enough if you are sincere."
Sheng Wanyan listened to Gu's mother's instructions and nodded, dividing the things into two parts and putting them away separately.
After breakfast the next day, the family packed their things and went out, first to the medical school.
"It was this old professor who found me on the mountain. He now lives in the staff quarters with his eldest son and his family."
The old Chinese doctor was reported by his son-in-law. Later, when he returned to the city, his son-in-law and his family came to ask for money, but they were severely beaten back.
Fortunately, his sons were filial, so even though they were implicated back then, they had to sever ties with him.
But that was something they had discussed privately, and they did not ignore their father. They would find ways to send things to the village every month.
Sheng Wanyan listened to Gu Tingxiao explaining things to her, munching on some pastries as she walked in front of her parents.
They were almost there. Sheng Wanyan wiped Yi Yi's hands clean and took her hand to walk behind Gu Tingxiao.
The family of three walked to a small courtyard, which belonged to the old man and was returned by the state.
“Knock, knock, knock…”
"Who is it?"
An old voice came from inside, and the door opened soon after. It was an old man in a Zhongshan suit with a kind face.
"Ming Lao, it's me.
When Mr. Ming saw that it was Gu Tingxiao, he was a little bit unbelieving. Then he came to his senses and quickly let them in.
"Xiao Gu! Come on, come in and sit down."
Old Ming quickly pulled him in, and when he saw his wife and daughter behind him, his eyes were full of smiles.
"Ming Lao is good."
"Hello, Grandpa Ming~"
Yi Yi greeted him obediently, looking at him with her watery eyes full of curiosity.
"Okay, okay, come in and sit down."
Sheng Wanyan and her family of three walked in and sat down. Old Ming was fiddling with his own medicinal herbs. He would have something to do only after school started next month.
"There's nothing good at home, so you can just drink this tea."
Mr. Ming poured out two cups of tea, and Gu Tingxiao quickly stood up and took them.
"Mr. Ming, you are joking. It doesn't matter what I drink."
Old Master Ming scolded him with a smile, but when he saw what they brought, he instantly became unhappy.
"Take the things back. I don't need anything."
"Besides, I will be taking up my new position next month and will also receive a salary."
Old Master Ming refused to accept it no matter what. Gu Tingxiao looked at Sheng Wanyan and asked her to say a few words to comfort him.
"Ming Lao, these are all my filial piety to you. They are not valuable things, but just a token of my heart."
"If it weren't for your kindness, my daughter and I would probably have to depend on each other now."
"It's not a valuable thing, please accept it."
When Mr. Ming heard her words, he sighed. He was a doctor, so there was no reason for him to just watch someone die.
But later, the Gu family helped the elderly people return to the city and left a large sum of money, allowing them to live a stable life in the countryside for several months.
Now he is needed by the country and has returned to work. He has already repaid his family for their kindness.
If the Gu family had not helped them, none of these old guys might have been able to hold on until today.
Whether or not you can survive is a question.
"You are such a good talker, girl."
"No wonder this kid is still thinking about it even though he has one foot in the underworld."
"Okay, I'll take it this time."
"Don't bring it next time, or I won't open the door for you."
Sheng Wanyan smiled and nodded, then sat down and continued to exchange greetings. Yi Yi stayed obediently in Gu Tingxiao's arms, looking at Old Man Ming.
"Is this your daughter? She is so pretty."
"Yes, this is my daughter. Her full name is Gu Jinsheng, and her nickname is Yi Yi."
"It's a good name, and the child is strong."
The older generation likes children the most and they are happy to see children. They took out some White Rabbit milk candies and gave them to Yi Yi.
Yi Yi looked at Sheng Wanyan and did not dare to accept the candy given by Mr. Ming privately. It was not until Sheng Wanyan nodded that she took it with both hands.
"Thank you, Grandpa Ming~"
"Good boy."
Mr. Ming's eyes are full of satisfaction. Everyone likes children who are polite and well-behaved.
"Your little girl has been well educated."
"You are a lucky boy."
When Gu Tingxiao heard his words, he nodded in agreement. He himself felt the same way.
"Usually it's my wife who educates me."
When Mr. Ming heard that he kept talking about his wife, he laughed and scolded him a few words.
"You little brat..."
"He's really a romantic."
Old Master Ming smiled and shook his head, chatting with them like an ordinary elder. At noon, Old Master Ming invited them to stay for lunch.
No matter how much Gu Tingxiao and Sheng Wanyan refused, he would throw away the things they brought if they didn't stay.
He is an old naughty boy and can only obey.
Mr. Ming knew that they were going to visit the other two elderly people's homes, so he didn't keep them.
"Be careful on the road, and keep an eye on the little girl."
Old Ming looked down at Yi Yi who was holding his hand. This child was so white and chubby that it would be easy for someone to steal him.
"Grandpa Ming, stay healthy~"
"Come again next time!"
Yi Yi was so sweet-talking that she made Mr. Ming laugh out loud with his head thrown back. The whole yard was filled with Mr. Ming's laughter.
“Hahahahaha…Okay!”
"I'll wait for you to come see me next time."
Yi Yi nodded very seriously and said that when she grew up, she could come by herself.
Next time she comes, she will bring her favorite cakes for Grandpa Ming.
"Okay~"
After making all the promises with him, she followed her parents away obediently, turning around and waving her little hand when leaving.
"Goodbye, Grandpa Ming~"
Yi Yi waved her little hands and skipped along behind her parents to go to Kyoto University.
The family of three came to Peking University, and Sheng Wanyan met the other two elderly people, a couple.
One is a foreign language professor at Peking University, and the other is a dance teacher at Beijing Dance Academy. The old couple has few relatives.
At the beginning, the daughter-in-law reported them, and the son chose his own family. Now their son also disowns them, and the old couple lives their own lives.
Both old people have their own students. They usually teach the students and help out in school, and they live a comfortable life.
Seeing her family coming was a big surprise for them.
