"mother!"
Ji Nianqin ran panting and finally arrived at the hospital.
"Is my daughter back?"
Ji Nianqin's mother's eyes were wrapped in gauze, and the doctor was about to remove it.
"Family members of the patient, please wait outside."
"Mom, I'm back. Here are the fried dough sticks and soy milk I bought for you. Eat them while they're hot."
"The patient cannot eat irritating foods for the time being..."
Ji Nianqin was called outside by the nurse, who told her some precautions and she would tiptoe to look inside through the crack in the hospital door from time to time.
"Miss Nurse, I've taken note of everything you just said. I want to ask, is my mother's eyes really healed?"
"Yes, don't you believe it? Your mother said she wanted to see the world, and you described it to her so beautifully. I heard that you even took her to a place full of gardens, with flowers everywhere, and to the Yellow River, where she drank a sip of its water."
"No, no, the vendor was a liar. He scooped the water from the toilet. I don't think my mom drank it. But I did take a sip, haha!"
Ji Nianqin looked so painful, and I can still smell the stench from that moment on.
"Okay, you can go in."
"mother!!"
Ji Nianqin stared at her mother intently, and when she saw her eyes slowly open, the first person she looked at was Ji Nianqin.
"My dear, it's so great that I can see you again."
"Your daughter was so worried about you that she even cried outside, worried that we hadn't cured your eyes. Now it seems that those were unnecessary concerns. So once you come to the hospital, you must trust us completely. We are not those traveling doctors and charlatans from the past. Our doctors have all studied for five years as undergraduates, and are still going to get a doctorate, and then go through a period of internship before they can perform surgery on you. It's all based on experience..."
“Isn’t this ancient?”
Ji Nianqin's mother finally reacted and looked around. Outside the white wall was the blue sky, and there were several pots of fresh green plants on the windowsill.
"Where is this, girl?"
"Okay, then, you guys can chat. I'm going out first. This old lady wasn't born blind, but became blind later in life. No wonder the doctors were discussing this. I was so self-righteous. It seems that as a young nurse, I really have a lot to learn. Learning is endless. I used to think that working as a medical staff often requires multiple shifts, which is a bit hard and tiring, but now it seems that it's all worth it. But why are they discussing this like it's ancient times?"
The nurse opened the door slightly and asked, "Are you all right?"
"It's okay, it's okay. I really want to take my mom to the Yellow River and the gardens to see them all."
"Not yet. Your mother has just recovered."
"Yes, yes, I understand."
Ji Nianqin hurriedly apologized to the young nurse and returned to the time when she was reading ancient Chinese texts to her mother.
"Mom, are you feeling better now? Do you feel like you're home?"
"My dear, is what you just said true?"
"Of course, mother."
"I'm so happy to have lived through such a wonderful dynasty. I feel like the air these days is not right. It's like breathing it in makes me feel brighter and more cheerful."
"That's right, Mom. Let Lulu accompany you for a while. After a few days, when your eyes are ready to see the scenery outside, I will take you to the garden and the Yellow River where we visited last time. But Mom, after I send you home, I have to go somewhere first..."
