Chapter 178: Uncle’s amazing operation!
After separating the two people who were not in conflict, Wu Lanlan took Bai Lianhua to the kitchen to cook.
Mingdai and Zhou Sinian played with Mr. Bai who had just woken up.
After a nap, Mr. Bai had completely forgotten about the two of them. Zhou Sinian carefully explained to him who he was.
Mr. Bai just treated them as Jingyi's friends who came to visit his home. He happily showed them pictures of Jingyi and told them stories about Jingyi's childhood.
Zhou Sinian listened very carefully, and the image of his mother was gradually shaped in his mind through his grandfather's narration.
Mingdai opened the peanut candy and gave it to the two of them, letting them eat while chatting.
She took the opportunity to check the old man's pulse and found that he was not in good health. In addition to dementia, he also had problems with his stomach and heart. His entire body was in serious condition and his life span was already affected.
But if you take good care of yourself, you can recover some of it.
For lunch, my uncle and Wu Hamam prepared a very rich meal, not only steamed rice, but also fried bacon.
After dinner, Mingdai suggested helping her uncle take a look at his legs first.
Bai Lianhua and Wu Zaza looked at each other in surprise. There was a doctor on the farm, but his medical skills were not very good. It was he who reconnected Bai Lianhua's leg, so not only was he lame, but it was also very painful.
"Will it be too tiring? How about waiting until you have rested?"
Ming Dai waved her hands: "It's okay, we came all the way by car, we are not very tired, let your uncle take a look first, I feel that you look not right."
Upon hearing this, Wu Zhan Zhan immediately became nervous and pulled Bai Lianhua to sit opposite Ming Dai.
Zhou Sinian shared candy with his grandfather while watching with a frown.
If Little Potato had a lame leg and was not in good health, he would be worried that people would not want him anymore.
After all, he looked so useless and ugly!
Bai Lianhua met Wu Xiaxia's nervous eyes and explained, "I'm fine, I just didn't get enough rest recently."
Mingdai raised her hand to touch it, and her brows furrowed more and more as she looked. Wu Zuanzu was so nervous that his palms were sweating. While Bai Lianhua was comforting her, he was also very worried in his heart. Could something really have happened?
After taking her uncle's pulse, Mingdai asked him to lift up his trouser legs.
Bai Lianhua felt a little embarrassed, so Wu Zaza helped him roll up his pants.
Too thin.
Ming Dai sighed as she looked at her leg whose muscles had atrophied. She touched it and found that the bone had not been set properly and it had grown crooked.
"alright."
Wu Zuizhuan helped to put down his pants and looked at Mingdai who was in deep thought without daring to say a word.
Zhou Sinian helped Mingdai to get her small backpack and stared at her, wanting to know how Little Potato was doing.
Ming Dai thought for a moment and said, "Uncle, do you suffer from insomnia and frequent nightmares? Do you often wake up in the middle of the night? How long has this been going on?"
When Bai Lianhua heard this, his body stiffened and his face turned pale.
Wu Jianjian frowned and looked at him: "Why have you never said that?"
Bai Lianhua smiled and consoled her: "I just woke up a few times during the night. I don't think it's a big deal."
Mingdai glanced at him and realized that it was nothing serious. He just suffered from severe neurasthenia due to not being able to sleep all night.
He was also extremely weak, with deficient Qi and blood. Like Zhou Sinian in his early years, he was prone to early death.
Ming Dai sighed: "The problem of insomnia must be solved. If it is not solved, your body will definitely not be able to bear it. It is only a matter of time before you collapse. I will prescribe some medicine for you. You should take it on time. Don't work hard during normal times. Go to bed on time at night. If you can't sleep, close your eyes and rest.
As for your legs..."
Bai Lianhua looked at him hopefully. Compared to the insomnia problem, he was more concerned about his legs.
Ming Dai smiled at him and said, "There is hope for recovery, but you need to go to a big hospital for surgery to re-set the bones. After that, you need to do rehabilitation. It will take one or two years for the bones to return to their original position and the muscle elasticity to recover. I can't guarantee that you will recover to your previous level of flexibility, but you can still dance!"
When Bai Lianhua heard the word "dance", he felt amused but also a little disappointed.
He is no longer the young master of the Bai family who was a big shot on the dance floor.
Wu Xiaxia was very happy to hear this!
"Okay! Xiao Ming, let's do the surgery. Which hospital do you think we should go to?"
Ming Dai comforted her, "Don't worry about this. First, take care of your uncle's health. He is now like Jiaohua. He needs to slowly heal his roots before he can have his bones moved. Otherwise, if he doesn't persevere through the surgery and rehabilitation, it will be in vain."
Wu Jianjian nodded: "Okay, you write a prescription and I'll go to the county to get the medicine!"
Ming Dai shook her head: "That's not necessary. His condition is similar to Zhou Sinian's early days. I have some ready-made herbs. Let's take them for two days and see how it goes.
Sister Hammer will arrange the food for him, and it’s best to follow the dietary therapy. I’ll teach you a few dietary therapy recipes later, and you can make them for him and grandpa. I’ve also seen grandpa’s condition, and he needs to take supplements as well.”
Bai Lianhua looked at the old man fiddling with his hat and asked, "Can his dementia be cured?"
Ming Dai looked at the old man and sighed: "This is difficult. It depends on whether he can get over the knot in his heart."
Bai Lianhua thanked him and did not ask any more questions.
Unless my sister comes back to life, my father will never be able to resolve this knot in his life. It’s good for him to be confused like this, at least he isn’t in pain anymore.
Wu Jianjian carefully memorized the dietary therapy recipe Mingdai mentioned, and even wrote it down again with pen and paper for fear of forgetting it.
Mingdai prepared medicine for her from the basket she carried on her back when she was little. She immediately took out a clay pot and started to cook it, one for each of her uncle and grandfather.
Mingdai watched her busying herself in the kitchen and thought that she must have loved her uncle terribly.
"She's a very nice girl, as kind as you are."
Ming Dai's cheeks flushed from being praised, and she quickly waved her hands: "It's different, it's different. Zhou Sinian and I are using each other, and we are in a cooperative relationship. Sister Xia Xia really likes you."
Bai Lianhua looked at her with a smile: "If you say so, then so be it."
Mingdai inexplicably felt like there was something fishy going on here, and she couldn't explain it!
Zhou Sinian pursed his lips when he heard the conversation between the two. He didn't like Mingdai saying that she and he were in a cooperative relationship, but he didn't know how to describe their relationship.
Although he thought Mingdai was very much like his mother, Mingdai seemed unhappy.
Oh, it’s too difficult!
While he was feeling melancholy, Bai Lianhua looked at Wu Zhuanzhu who was surrounded by mist and spoke softly.
"You just wanted to ask me why I wanted to marry into the Zhuwu family, right?"
Mingdai nodded.
Bai Lianhua smiled and said, "Brother Yan should have told you that someone has been watching us and looking for trouble. It was the same for my father and I on the farm. Since we were sent here, we have been squeezed out. There is endless work to do and not enough food to eat. All the letters and supplies that Brother Yan gave us were intercepted. My father and I almost couldn't survive for a long time."
Ming Dai looked at him in surprise: "How could this happen? Isn't it said that this place is not a place for torture?"
Bai Lianhua sneered: "It's true that there is no hardship. Even though we have to live in the bullpen after being demoted here, at least everyone is treated as an individual. The only ones who are treated specially are me and my father.
At first I thought my dad and I had offended someone, but later I found out that it wasn’t the case. Someone bribed the people at the farm and was targeting us maliciously!
We couldn't leave the farm, and our mail was intercepted, so we were isolated and helpless for a long time.
That’s not all, they are so crazy that they want to kill Dad!
My father drowned when he was a child and never went near the river. One time, while I was working, he secretly ran to the river and jumped into the river. If he hadn’t been rescued, he would have drowned.
He was afraid but he still wanted to go down because someone told him that his sister was in the river and he wanted to go find her! "
Ming Dai felt very sympathetic when she saw him shaking with anger. This place was so far away from the capital, and no one knew about Bai Jingyi's affairs. It could only be someone who did it on purpose.
"After that, I stopped tolerating it. If I found out that someone mentioned my sister in front of my dad and made him sick, I would beat them back!
But these people were also bought off. Who was behind it and what was their purpose? Even Brother Yan couldn't find out, so I had no idea where to start. I could only keep a closer eye on Dad.
Later, Brother Yan told me that something happened every year!
I couldn't bear it any longer. It was obviously not normal for the Bai family members to have accidents one after another.
In order to get rid of these people's conspiracy, I must find a strong enough backer, and the Wu family is the best backer I can think of.
Before liberation, the captain of the Wu family was the most powerful bandit leader in Lookout Mountain. Although he was recruited after liberation and Wujiazhai became Wujia Village, he is still a figure that cannot be provoked here.
As long as I become a member of Wujia Village, the enemies hiding in the dark won't dare to touch me and my father easily!
If things go well, I will have the opportunity to go out to the farm and see Niannian.”
At this point, he cleared his throat and said, "So, I started to find ways to approach the girls in Wujia Village and look for a suitable candidate for marriage.
That's right, you've seen my face, it's quite powerful, and before I knew it, all the girls in the village fell in love with me, and several even canceled their marriage plans for me!"
Mingdai’s eyes widened!
I finally understand why the villagers dislike people with the surname Bai and their relatives!
My dear uncle, you have disturbed the hearts of all the girls in the village by your own strength!
