The old lady did not answer Gao Yan, but smiled gently at him.
"Grandma, I heard from Youwei that you injured your leg. How are you feeling now?" Gao Yan asked again.
The old lady still didn't answer, but continued to smile and talk to Gao.
At this moment, Chen Youwei said, "Grandma has some hearing problems, so we have to speak loudly to her!"
"So that's how it is!"
Gao Yan suddenly realized why the old lady only smiled at him without responding.
So Gao Yan raised his voice and repeated what he had just said. This time the old lady heard him and replied, "I'm much better now."
After chatting with the old lady for a while, Gao Yan asked Chen Youwei, "Why haven't I seen Lingling? Has she not gotten up yet?"
Chen Youwei said, "She got up early and went to town to buy groceries."
Then she brought a basin and a towel, poured in hot water, and let Gao Yan wash his face.
"There aren't any extra toothbrushes at home, we'll have to wait for Lingling to come back!" Chen Youwei said again.
About twenty minutes later.
Chen Youwei rode her bicycle back, with the groceries she had bought in her pocket.
"Brother-in-law, I bought you a toothbrush and a cup!"
"Thank you, Lingling!"
You're welcome!
After Gao Yan took the toothbrush and cup and brushed his teeth with the toothpaste handed to him by Chen Youling, Chen Youwei invited Gao Yan to have breakfast!
After breakfast, Gao Yan took his leave.
But all three generations of the family tried to persuade them to stay.
In particular, Chen Youling pouted and said, "Brother-in-law, they went to town specifically to buy vegetables. If you leave without eating them, wouldn't that be a waste of their good intentions?"
"Alright then, I'll leave after lunch. Anyway, we're free this morning, so let's go to the county town and have some sightseeing!"
"Okay! Okay!"
Chen Youling said happily.
Suddenly, Gao Yan thought of something, took out a bottle of medicinal wine from the trunk of the car and handed it to Chen Youling: "Lingling, this medicinal wine can strengthen the body. Give the old lady half a cup every day, and it should help her injured leg heal sooner!"
"Really?" Chen Youling asked, somewhat incredulously.
"Of course, I never lie!"
"Then I'll let Grandma try it!" Chen Youling took the medicinal wine, found a cup, poured in a little less than half a cup, and let the old lady drink it.
"How is Grandma feeling?"
Chen Lingling asked loudly.
The old lady's cloudy eyes lit up slightly, and she nodded with a smile.
"Brother-in-law, it seems to really work!" Chen Youling said happily.
"Do you think I'd lie to you?"
Gao Yan smiled slightly.
After saying goodbye to the old lady, Gao Yan led the two sisters toward the county town.
"Lingling, what's fun to do in the county town?"
On the bus, Gao Yan asked.
Chen Youling shook her head: "I don't know either. I only study in town and rarely go to the county seat!"
"Do you know about Youwei?"
"I don't know either!" Chen Youwei shook her head.
"Let's find a shopping mall to browse!" Gao Yan thought for a moment, then looked at Chen Youling and said, "Lingling, you don't have a cell phone yet, do you?"
He noticed that Chen Youling looked at his phone with a hint of envy.
"No!"
"Then your brother-in-law will give you one!"
"No need, brother-in-law, I don't usually use a cell phone!" Chen Youling quickly shook her head and waved her hand.
"Since you've already called me brother-in-law, what's wrong with giving you a cell phone? Besides, you're about to start high school, having a cell phone will make things easier!"
Gao Yan said with a smile.
Chen Lingling then subconsciously looked at Chen Youwei.
Chen Youwei shook her head at her.
However, this scene did not escape Gao Yan's notice, who said domineeringly, "You're not allowed to refuse, or I'll get angry!"
This time, Chen Youwei did not object anymore.
Chen Youling was secretly delighted and said sweetly, "Thank you, brother-in-law."
"That's more like it!"
Gao Yan said with satisfaction.
The five-kilometer journey wasn't far, and we quickly arrived in the county town. Then, I used my phone to find the address of the shopping mall.
"We've arrived, let's get off!"
After parking the car, the three of them went into the mall together, and luckily there was a mobile phone store on the first floor.
"Lingling, what brand of mobile phone do you like?" Gao Yan asked.
"I don't know either, so it's up to my brother-in-law to decide!"
"Let's take a look first!"
Gao Yandao said.
So the three of them went to several mobile phone stores, and finally Chen Youling took a liking to an Oppein mobile phone, priced at around 2,800 yuan.
"How about this one?"
Gao Yan asked.
“Brother-in-law, this is too expensive. Just buy a cheaper one!” Chen Youling shook her head.
"So, do you like it?" Gao Yan asked, looking at her.
"like!"
"Let's take this one!"
Gao Yan waved his hand.
After buying the phone, they also used Chen Youling's ID card to get her a phone card.
Do you know how to use WeChat?
Gao Yan asked.
Chen Youling said, "I know, I've used my classmate's phone to play with it, and I also have WeChat!"
“Let’s add each other as friends. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, just come to me!” Gao said.
"Thank you, brother-in-law!"
Chen Youling logged into WeChat on her new phone and added Gao Yan as a friend.
Chen Youling changed Gao Yan's nickname to "brother-in-law".
Gao Yan also wanted to buy Chen Youwei a cell phone, since her phone was too old. However, he knew that even if he bought it, Chen Youwei wouldn't want it!
"Let's go upstairs and take a look!"
So the three of them went up to the second floor, where there were clothing counters.
Looking at the dazzling array of clothes hanging in the women's clothing store, Chen Youling couldn't help but look them over with great curiosity.
"If you like anything, go inside and pick out a few pieces. Your brother-in-law will give them to you!"
