Chapter 297: The Fake Heiress (6)
Grandma Shen couldn't persuade Wen Wan in the end. Wen Wan continued to cook for Grandma Shen according to the nutritional balance of the recipe and gave her regular check-ups. After all, people get old and their illnesses are hard to explain. It was as if she was atoning for the original owner's sins. Even if it wasn't for the original owner, she liked Grandma Shen very much and didn't want anything to happen to her.
A few days later, the system returned, bringing back good news.
[This reagent cannot cure Gu Qian's mother, but it can prevent her condition from worsening. However, there's no need to lose heart. Her main problem is psychological; if her psychological problem is cured, perhaps her physical illness will also be cured. It's hard to say.]
"A mental illness? What kind of mental illness does she have?"
System: [The author didn't write this either, and I'm not entirely sure either. The host can look it up themselves.]
Wen Yan: "..."
You're a piece of trash.
The medicine is available, but how to get it into Gu's mother's mouth is a problem. After all, she hasn't even seen Gu's mother yet, and Gu Qian doesn't seem to want her to see her either.
Gu Qian's psychological defenses were too strong, so Wen Wan could only turn her attention to the child. During her time with Gu Yao, Wen Wan subtly inquired about his mother.
At first, Gu Yao was unwilling to tell Wen Wan, but children's psychological defenses are easily broken down, and Gu Yao had a very high level of affection for her. So, gradually, Gu Yao began to talk to Wen Wan about his mother.
Gu Yao loves his mother very much, but even more than love, he is afraid of her.
He was still just a ten-year-old child. He had seen his mother at her most frantic and hysterical. At those times, his mother seemed like a devil to him. However, sometimes, his mother when she wasn't sick was the real mother.
"Can I go see your mother?" One day, when Gu Qian was out of the house, Wen Wan finally revealed her purpose. However, Gu Yao initially disagreed, saying, "My brother said that Mom will hurt others and we can't let her have contact with anyone."
"But she's so lonely! Doesn't Yao Yao want her mother to be happy? Maybe if her mother has company, she'll get better."
Gu Yao: "..."
"Can it really get better?"
"Of course, when Yao Yao grows up and earns money, he will take his mother to the best hospital, and the doctor will be able to cure his mother's illness."
Gu Yao was eventually persuaded and, taking advantage of Gu Qian's absence, secretly brought Wen Wan upstairs.
There were very few things upstairs, especially in the room where Gu's mother was.
Gu's mother was lying in bed, one hand chained to the headboard. Sharp objects around her had been removed. Gu's mother was sleeping. Gu Qian looked a lot like his mother. If she hadn't been sick, she would have been a beautiful woman. Otherwise, even with Gu's father's genes, they wouldn't have been able to have such a handsome son.
Wen Wan walked over quietly, and when Gu Yao wasn't paying attention, she pried open Gu's mother's mouth, dripped the medicine into her mouth, and then made her swallow it.
Gu's mother woke up.
Gu Yao quickly grabbed Wen Wan, "Sister Qing, let's go, Mom is about to have an attack."
Wen Wan looked at Gu's mother, though she was a little far away, she didn't leave. "Your mother doesn't seem to have had a relapse."
Mother Gu opened her eyes, her gaze shifting as she looked at the two of them, her eyes initially glazed and blank before slowly regaining their clarity. "Yao Yao?"
Gu Yao rushed over, calling out, "Mom!"
With her free hand, Gu's mother touched Gu Yao's face. "Yao Yao, did Mommy hurt you? Mommy is so sorry, so very sorry to Yao Yao and your brother."
Gu Yao shook his head. "Mom is just sick. My brother said she'll get better."
Wen Wan watched Gu's mother from the side, as if she could take Gu Yao away immediately if she had a seizure. However, half an hour later, the other party was still very calm.
System: [Host, rest assured, the works produced by Transmigration Bureau are generally reliable. As long as there are no major triggers, Mother Gu will not easily lose control.]
Wen Wan: "I hope so."
Another hour passed, and Gu's mother still hadn't fallen ill. Wen Wan asked Gu Yao to get some food for his mother, and Gu Yao ran off to do so.
Gu's mother looked at Wen Wan and asked, "Who are you?"
"My name is Shen Qing, and I am the granddaughter of Grandma Shen in the village."
Mother Gu: "Isn't Grandma Chen's granddaughter named Xinyue?"
Wen Wan gave a simple explanation, which surprised Gu's mother, as it was too fantastical.
What did you just give me to eat?
Wen Yan: "!!!"
It turns out the other party was aware of this. Wen Wan said, "It's a drug that can control emotions and is very effective for mental breakdowns. I asked my friend to bring it."
Gu's mother: "I can definitely feel it. I'm very calm. Can it really be cured?"
"As long as Auntie doesn't experience any more major shocks, she won't get sick again. This is a medicine developed by many experts, and many people have never had a relapse in their entire lives." Wen Wan started making things up, just to reassure Gu's mother.
“Auntie, I don’t know what’s bothering you, but being sick isn’t your fault, and not being able to control your emotions isn’t your fault either. You have two very good and filial sons who have never blamed you. So even for their sake, you should keep your emotions in check and not hurt the people you love most.”
Gu's mother's eyes were red. "I didn't want to either. I couldn't control myself. I even wanted to leave far away, and even thought about dying so as not to be a burden to Xiaoqian. But he wouldn't let me. I even hurt him. I really don't deserve to be a mother."
Wen Wan: "May I ask, Auntie, what caused your first episode of illness?"
This is really presumptuous of me, but it's clear that Gu's mother is a gentle person by nature, and she's very kind when she's calm.
Gu's mother sighed, "There's nothing I can't say. That day I found out my husband was cheating on me and went to a prostitute."
Wen Yan: "!!!"
That old beast.
“He said his business failed and he accidentally met that woman. They drank some alcohol and slept together. I didn’t believe him. At that time, I was pregnant with Yao Yao. I was furious, but I didn’t have a breakdown until I saw him go to see that woman several times after that. Then I couldn’t control my anger and had a breakdown.”
Wen Wan: It turns out it was all that trash's fault.
"Do you still hate him now?"
Gu's mother shook her head. "I'm already disappointed. I don't hate him for cheating. I just hate him for beating Xiaoqian and Yaoyao. He beats people every time he gets drunk and ruins the family like this. But I can't control myself. When I go crazy, I also attack Xiaoqian and Yaoyao. I want to get treatment, but it's hereditary and I can't help it."
There are many other reasons, such as the family not having enough money, or her husband not wanting her to seek medical treatment.
She herself didn't dare to go, because if she went to a mental hospital, she would never be able to get out, and she would never see her child again.
"It's not your fault at all. You must remember to keep your emotions under control in the future. No matter what happens, don't get angry or let your emotions fluctuate too much. I will secretly give you the medicine. Do you trust me?"
Gu's mother looked at Wen Wan; she shouldn't have believed it.
But she did feel that she was feeling much better than usual, so she nodded and said, "Okay."
"Also, don't tell Gu Qian and Gu Yao. After all, I've only known them for a short time, and they won't trust me."
"good."
Gu Yao brought up a bowl with some noodles in it. Gu's mother ate half of the noodles, which surprised Gu Yao. Usually, his mother was exhausted after waking up and had no appetite at all. She couldn't eat anything. But today she ate a lot, and after so long, she hadn't turned into a demon.
