Chapter 37 Grandma Gu's Recovery
"What are you talking about? Why are you so happy?"
When Commander Zhang and his entourage entered, they saw this harmonious scene and couldn't help but ask questions out of curiosity.
Upon hearing the sound, the two people in the courtyard immediately looked towards the gate and saw Commander Zhang and Lu Yunting. When they saw the four of them, Grandma Gu greeted them with a smile.
"Commander Zhang, you've arrived! Come in and have a seat!"
"Grandma Gu! Your eyesight? You can see now?"
The sharp-eyed Gu Xinya couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, because she had been accompanying the old lady for the past month and knew her situation very well.
Originally, her eyes were dull and unfocused, clearly indicating a problem. But now, looking into Grandma Gu's eyes, they were full of expression, and she seemed to have become several years younger, appearing much more energetic.
Grandma Gu recognized the voice and figured out who it was. So this is what Xiaoya, who had been with her for a month, looked like. She was so pretty, just like her granddaughter.
"Yes, Grandma can see again now. Thanks to Xinyan and 011, they got me a bottle of medicine. In just one time, my eyes were all better."
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Gu Xinyan and 011 in surprise, and Commander Zhang murmured in confusion.
"Potion? What kind of potion?"
Hearing this, Gu Xinyan pointed to 011 and explained, "It's like this, 011 just came back and said that the main system rewarded me with a lottery chance. This bottle of potion was obtained through the lottery. 011 said that it is a potion from the magic world that can cure all kinds of physical damage, so I gave it to my grandma to use."
"Oh, I see. I didn't expect Gu girl to be so lucky. She actually drew the magic potion in one go. That's good. Now that your grandmother's eyes are healed, I can be more at ease when you go on missions outside."
Commander Zhang responded with a smile, showing no displeasure whatsoever. After all, the medicine was won by Gu Yatou in a lottery, and she should be free to choose where to use it.
Seeing that Grandma Gu's eyes had healed, I couldn't help but feel happy too.
Feeling a little embarrassed by the praise, Gu Xinyan scratched her head and whispered.
"Actually, it was just good luck. I didn't expect to draw this one. Last night I was thinking that if I came across any medicine that could treat my grandma's eyes, I would exchange some of it. I didn't expect it to happen so quickly."
"Hahaha, this is a good thing, it means our Gu girl can have all her wishes fulfilled." Commander Zhang laughed heartily as he looked at Gu Xinyan.
Lu Yunting and the other two standing nearby also burst out laughing, offering their congratulations one after another.
"Congratulations, Grandma Gu! Your eyesight is back! We're going to have a proper celebration today!"
Grandma Gu looked at the group with amusement and responded with a smile.
"Alright, alright, Grandma is so happy! I'll be in charge of the cooking tonight and show off my skills. Xiaoya and Chendong, thank you for keeping this old woman company these past few days. Enjoy my cooking tonight!"
Seeing her grandmother happy, Gu Xinyan's eyes darted around, and she said sourly:
"Oh my, you are so lucky. My grandma is a very good cook. I haven't been able to eat her food for so many years, and now that I'm finally getting to eat it, you've caught up with me."
Upon hearing this, Commander Zhang and the others, who had initially wanted to refuse, immediately shut their mouths. They could tell that Gu Xinyan had said these words specifically because she was afraid they would refuse, so they simply stopped refusing.
Grandma Gu, standing to the side, couldn't help but chuckle as she watched her teasing the group. She reached out and tapped her granddaughter's head, saying with a smile:
"You little rascal! Come help me prepare the vegetables later!"
Gu Xinyan, though annoyed by what was said, replied with a grin:
"Yes, yes, yes, I will obey the Emperor Emeritus's words."
Upon hearing this, everyone present burst into laughter, and the entire courtyard was filled with joyful sounds.
With so many people in the family, cooking takes only a short time. Everyone present is restless and feels uncomfortable if they don't find something to do.
When Gu An'an woke up, she saw this lively scene at home. After learning that her grandmother could see, she jumped for joy and circled around her grandmother again and again, only to be ruthlessly thrown out of the kitchen by her grandmother.
In the end, it was Li Chendong, Gu An'an's old playmate, who stepped in and made the secretly angry little guy laugh happily.
After a busy afternoon, the reward was a table full of delicious food, piled high, with bright colors and a wonderful aroma.
Grandma Gu was beaming with joy. She was so happy today; it had been a long time since her house had been this lively. She kept urging everyone to eat more, and kept muttering to herself.
"Everyone, please eat more! Don't be shy!"
As Gu Xinyan watched this scene, a warm feeling welled up in her heart. She knew that all of this was thanks to the bottle of panacea she had received today, which allowed her to see her grandmother so happy.
She couldn't help but turn her head to look at 011 beside her, and saw that it was staring at the food on the table with its big eyes, curiously looking at it, and occasionally trying to reach out its paw to touch it.
But since it has no physical form, when you try to touch it, its paw just slides right across the plate, and its expression of utter despair is absolutely hilarious.
Seeing this, Gu Xinyan didn't want to laugh, but in the end she couldn't help it and burst into laughter, making 011's fur stand on end and look at her with a reproachful expression.
Gu Xinyan touched her nose somewhat awkwardly, trying to make amends:
"Hey, you're a system, aren't you supposed to eat energy stones? Why are you so interested in our human food?"
[Hmph, host, you were just mocking 011. Although 011 absorbs energy, that doesn't mean I can't eat other things.]
It's just that my level is too low right now to have a physical form. Once I reach level five, 011 will be able to materialize into a physical form, and then I can eat anything!
011 stared wide-eyed, pretending to be angry as she explained, "Who said Tongzi can't eat?"
It's just that it doesn't have a physical form right now, otherwise it could show off its high and low status, dazzling the host's eyes, and then she wouldn't be able to laugh at the system anymore.
"Oh, is that so? Hehe, well, I was wrong, okay? Next time you can eat, I'll cook you a whole feast!"
Knowing she was wrong, Gu Xinyan decisively chose to apologize first. After all, 011, despite its small size, had quite a temper. If she angered it, they would probably have a cold war for several days. Besides, it was her fault, since she was the one who mocked it first.
[Hmph! It's a deal then, host, you can't go back on your word! 011 has it all written down! If you do, host, 011 will... will... will... will ignore you for a week! Hmph!]
After 011 finished speaking, she proudly raised her little head. This scene made everyone at the table unable to help but chuckle, even little Gu An'an had a big auntie smile on her face.
