During the meal, the old man brought it up himself: "You two shouldn't keep it from each other anymore. If things are going well, it's impossible for Minglan and her husband to rush over in the middle of the night. Tell me, what storms haven't I weathered? I can handle anything!"
Suddenly, everyone at the table looked at each other in bewilderment. Perhaps only one naive little person knew nothing at all?
With elders present, the younger generation didn't need to say anything. Gu Ziling and Gao Dan's family of three continued eating with their heads down, while Meimei and her husband exchanged glances and then looked directly at Commander Gu.
Well, as the eldest brother, of course the eldest brother should step up first in this situation! The couple didn't feel embarrassed at all.
“Dad, you’re overthinking it. There’s nothing terminally ill on your mind, just a lot of minor ailments. Let Xiaoye explain it to you properly; we can’t remember all those medical jargon.”
Commander Gu?
I never expected you to be like this, Commander Gu.
They actually tried to shift the blame to their daughter-in-law!
Ye Wanying was eating steamed dumplings when she almost bit her tongue: "Cough..." She quickly swallowed the dumpling in her mouth before slowly saying:
"Well, it's just some minor ailments, the three highs that are common among the elderly: high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and high blood sugar. These can all be controlled with medication. Also, as people get older, their hearts may not receive enough blood. So, sir, you can't go for runs anymore, and you can't do any more morning exercises like tai chi. Just take a walk. There's nothing else wrong. You just need to take good care of yourself, get enough sleep, eat more vegetables and whole grains, avoid sweets and high-calorie foods, and don't let your emotions fluctuate too much."
Hearing this long string of words, the old man was stunned, but he also understood that there was no cancer or terminal illness involved, and for a moment he was happy.
"Then we won't run the cloth or practice boxing."
They agreed quite readily.
Meimei then spoke up: "Grandpa, don't forget that you should avoid sweets."
You know, the old man's favorite foods are sweet cakes, steamed buns, and the like, as well as steamed glutinous rice. You can't stop him from eating them.
Sure enough, the old man looked aggrieved upon hearing this, and then looked at Ye Wanying:
"Xiao Ye, are you sure you can't eat this? But Grandpa really loves it!"
Forehead........
"No!" came the decisive reply.
For a moment, the old man really wanted to yell, "Why can't I eat those things?"
But then I realized that these were all things the doctor said, and the children were also concerned about their health, which is why they forbade me from eating them.
Why....
Then how about we don't eat it?
Or, perhaps eat less occasionally?
hehe......
It's easy to imagine that the battles of wits and courage within the Gu family will happen frequently in the future, more exciting than any opera.
She could have eaten a little less, but seeing the old man's condition and considering what Meimei had just said, Ye Wanying deliberately lied and said she couldn't eat.
"Tuanzi, you can keep an eye on Great-Grandpa from now on, okay? Great-Grandpa can't eat sweet things," Meimei said with a smile to the little boy.
Hearing this, the little guy asked suspiciously, "Why can't Great-Grandpa eat sweet things?"
"Yes, because my great-grandfather is old and in poor health, he can't eat it, or he'll get sick."
Meimei explained it to him, and the little guy understood immediately. He nodded and agreed, "Second Grandma, Tuanzi will keep a close eye on Great-Grandpa and will definitely not let Great-Grandpa eat anything sweet."
"Yes, that's right, let's do it that way."
