Chapter 215: Not taking it seriously
Wei Ming hesitated for a moment, then let out a long sigh. "My dad has been in prison for many years. He might not be released for at least twenty years. My mom... is practically nonexistent. My aunt used to be very kind to us, but now she's married and lives far away, so it's not very convenient for her to come back."
"Let's go in."
Tu Ran was not interested in other people's miserable life stories, nor did he have time to show sympathy.
Wei Ming took her into the house carefully.
It's just over 60 square meters in total, with a small two-bedroom and one-living room layout.
Although the building is very old, the house is very clean and tidy, and you can tell at a glance that the owner loves cleanliness.
Wei Ming hurriedly poured Tu Ran a glass of water.
"Thank you."
"Don't thank me yet, I may not be able to help you yet."
Tu Ran didn't drink any water and went straight to Wei Ming's grandmother's room.
The old lady was indeed in very bad condition, her face was blue-gray and she was gasping for breath.
He was still babbling nonsense, "You're here, please take me away. If I leave, what will happen to my grandson? He's not married yet, so I'll go with you. It won't hurt when I leave. You heartless man, why don't you miss me when you go there? Are you with someone else and don't want me anymore, you bad old man."
Wei Ming's grandmother looked at the ceiling, her eyes no longer shining.
"What medicine is she taking recently?"
"I can't eat anything. I haven't eaten for two days and only drank a little water," said Wei Ming.
"Don't you plan to rush her to the hospital for emergency treatment?"
Wei Ming hesitated for two seconds and said, "I'm not qualified to consider it. If I send him to the intensive care unit, I can't afford it."
“Unless you sell the house.”
“But the house won’t sell that quickly.”
Tu Ran understood, "You don't have to blame yourself. Your grandmother is in such a bad condition that even if she is sent for emergency treatment, the outcome won't be particularly good. She might lose everything."
After saying that, Tu Ran sat next to the old lady and began to take her pulse.
"Well, the pulse is indeed very weak."
She looked at the old lady's tongue coating and pupils again.
"Maybe it's tonight."
"Didn't you inform your aunt?"
"I've been notified, they should be getting off the plane soon," said Wei Ming.
Tu Ran nodded and took out a set of needles from his bag.
This set of needles was from Old Man Sun’s clinic. She was very familiar with them, so she brought them here directly.
"I'll give your grandma an acupuncture first."
"There might be some vomiting reaction, don't be nervous."
"As for how many injections it will take to wake him up, it depends on fate."
"Of course, maybe she won't be able to come over in the end, so you have to be mentally prepared."
"Okay." Wei Ming nodded.
I don’t know why, even though I don’t know Tu Ran, I have an inexplicable trust in her medical skills.
Tu Ran then started acupuncture, and when the third needle was inserted.
The old lady suddenly started to react, and Wei Ming immediately brought the trash can.
The old lady vomited violently, spewing out a lot of food residues from the past few days.
The air was suddenly filled with a sour smell, and Wei Ming frowned slightly.
He secretly went to see Tu Ran, but only saw that Tu Ran was calm and didn't show any disgust at all.
"Looks like there's no need for a fourth shot."
"She should be awake soon."
"If you have anything to say, just say it."
Tu Ran put away the silver needle and stood up.
"Tu Ran, are you using the Thirteen Ghost Gate Needles?"
"No, the Thirteen Ghost Gate Needles are used to treat things that cannot be explained by science. Your grandmother's is purely based on what my grandfather taught me. It is to restore her blood and let her recover."
As she was speaking, the old lady suddenly woke up.
"Mingming, who is this?"
"grandmother."
When Wei Ming saw his grandmother wake up, his eyes turned red again.
"Grandma, this is the doctor I invited... to treat you."
"Oh, such a young and beautiful doctor."
Tu Ran smiled friendly.
"The little girl is so pretty, like a fairy from heaven. You said you were so lucky to be in heaven, so why did you come to the human world?"
As the old lady spoke, she began to talk nonsense again.
"My grandma is like this, don't mind it." Wei Ming quickly explained.
"It's okay, you stay with her, I'm leaving first."
"Thank you very much."
It was not convenient for Wei Ming to keep Tu Ran any longer, so he simply thanked him and sent Tu Ran out.
At this time, her phone rang.
Tu Ran: Hello?
Jin Yu: I am Jin Yu.
Tu Ran: Who? I don’t remember.
Jin Yu: Stop pretending, I’m Xie Nancheng’s female secretary, you know that.
Tu Ran: Oh, Miss Secretary, what’s the matter?
Jin Yu: You are really good at complaining. You said a lot of bad things about me to Mr. Xie, right?
Tu Ran: Where did you come from?
Jin Yu: Are you still pretending? What I hate most is high-class green tea like you, who don't admit to what they did and pretend to be innocent. Before you came along, President Xie was very good to me. If you weren't satisfied with the dress that day, you could have told me and I would have changed it to a smaller size. But you actually took advantage of my trick and tricked me. Now, as you wished, I'm no longer in the secretary's office."
Tu Ran: Oh? Were you fired?
Jin Yu: Haha, you wanted me to be fired, but unfortunately, Mr. Xie didn’t fire me. Are you disappointed?
Tu Ran: I’m not disappointed, and I don’t really care about personal privacy.
Jin Yu: I've moved to another department now, but my salary and benefits haven't decreased at all. I'm not that active, don't you know? My brother saved Mr. Xie's life, so Mr. Xie won't fire me for my brother's sake. And you don't think I'll ever see Mr. Xie again just because I left the secretariat, do you?
Tu Ran: Miss Jin Yu, what is the purpose of your call today? Please get to the point. I don't have time to chat with you. I don't really like chatting with people I don't know well. It makes me feel like it's a waste of time.
Jin Yu: Why are you pretending? You're just a bumpkin from the mountains. Lin Siyao already said that calling you the Lin family's adopted daughter was a big deal. You're just an uneducated, uneducated, and ignorant country bumpkin.
Tu Ran: But I am Xie Nancheng’s legal wife.
Jin Yu: You...
Tu Ran: You are educated, cultured, good-looking, smart, and your family is from this city, but Xie Nancheng doesn’t like you. What can I do?
Jin Yu: ...
Tu Ran: Okay, don’t call me about these boring things next time. If you have any truth or dare questions, go tell Xie Nancheng.
Tu Ran then hung up. She really couldn't get angry with Jin Yu because she didn't take him seriously at all.
The same goes for Fu Yunni. Even Zhou Han might be a little higher in rank than them, but Tu Ran still doesn't feel any sense of crisis. She thinks this feeling might be because she doesn't like Xie Nancheng at all, so she doesn't care?
After a busy day, I was just about to leave for get off work.
Dong Xue came, she was also working nearby.
"Tu Ran, let me treat you to hot pot. I got my salary today."
"Forget about the hot pot. It's not easy for you to make money, so keep it."
"No, no, no, I also made an appointment with Mu Wanjun, and she agreed. Let's go together?"
"Because the Chinese New Year is coming soon, I will go back to my hometown tomorrow."
"Okay." After hearing what Dong Xue said, Tu Ran agreed.
There was no movement from Xie Nancheng. She knew that he was probably being entangled by Madam Xie.
A cheap hotpot restaurant in the city center is crowded with people during dinner time.
After finally finding a seat, Mu Wanjun arrived as promised.
The three of them sitting together felt a different kind of emotion.
Dong Xue was quite excited, "I really didn't expect that the two most beautiful girls in our class would become my friends.
Mu Wanjun said, "Being pretty can't make a living, it's really nothing."
"I will always remember the help you two gave me."
"I'm going back to my hometown tomorrow, so I'm happy to treat you to a hot pot meal today."
Tu Ran was about to speak when his cell phone rang again.
The strange thing was that she subconsciously wondered if it was Xie Nancheng calling, so what was she expecting?
