He Tingyan stood there alone, his figure bleak and looking lonely.
So pitiful.
Wen Xi walked over silently.
"Don't worry, Grandpa He won't leave so easily now that his wish is gone."
"Um."
He Tingyan responded softly, his throat dry.
"Where's Xingzai?"
"At home, Kimber was with him. I didn't tell him."
"Oh." Wen Xi nodded, looked at him and said, "The operation will take a long time, please sit down first."
After saying that, she walked to the water dispenser not far away and took a cup of hot water.
"Give."
"Thanks."
He Tingyan took it, and the water in the cup rippled slightly.
He took a sip and put the water aside. After a few minutes, he stood up from his seat again.
Wen Xi stopped trying to persuade him.
Only those who have experienced this kind of restlessness know how it feels.
She looked like this in her previous life when her father was pushed into the emergency room.
I felt so uncomfortable sitting outside the operating room that time seemed so long. It would not be an exaggeration to say that every second felt like a year.
The operation lasted more than 4 hours, and the old man was not pushed out until after 1:00 p.m.
"How about it?"
As soon as the door opened, He Tingyan hurried forward with a stiff expression.
"It was very successful, but the old man is old, so post-operative recovery is very important." Zhuang Yi took off his mask and instructed, "Monitor him for half a month first, for any complications. He can only be discharged if there are no problems. After discharge, come for regular checkups once a month for a year."
He was the lead surgeon today. From doctors and anesthesiologists to nurses, all of them were members of the Zhuang family. It could be said that almost all of the elite members of the Zhuang family were involved in this major operation.
"I see. Thank you."
After hearing his words, He Tingyan finally relaxed, and Wen Xi, who was huddled beside him, also breathed a sigh of relief.
Grandpa He stayed in the hospital for more than half a month. Every time Wen Xi went to visit him, he saw the grandfather and grandson bargaining.
The old man was anxious to be discharged from the hospital and go to Xi County.
He didn't have a photo of his old friend, so he dictated to Wen Xi to draw one, and asked He Tingyan to distribute it to the people sent to investigate.
Not long after, the people sent out reported back that there was no information about this person in the local area.
The old man refused to give up and insisted on going to see it himself, preferably immediately! But he was watched by the people sent by his grandson, and there was no way to escape. His mood was flammable and irritable, like a firecracker that could be ignited at any time.
Wen Xi's burden became heavier, so she had no choice but to cooperate with He Tingyan to show their affection in front of the old man and make him happy... until the road was repaired.
Xi County is known for being impoverished. Ashan's village is a remote, remote area with poor roads. To save the old man a bumpy ride, the wealthy He Boss dispatched a construction team from his company to repair the road right after the Lunar New Year! Combined with the local workers, the road from the town to the village was completed in just over a month.
The departure time was set for the weekend, and Wen Xi also went with them. Two days of special plane and car were enough for the return trip.
If my mother hadn't told her, she wouldn't have known that this guqin had a great origin. It was actually made by a famous craftsman in ancient times. It is a true antique, priceless and a treasure!
No reward without merit, so after getting the piano, she also wanted to contribute.
We took a plane early in the morning and arrived in Guang Province around noon. Then we took a bus to Xi County. It was not until dark that we arrived at the small mountain village where Ashan was.
Most of the young people in the mountain village went out to work, and none of them came back after seeing the outside world. The village chief brought the elderly, weak and sick to welcome the guests at the village entrance.
The He family built the road for them, which was a great favor to the village, and everyone was very grateful.
