Thinking of how Boss Cheng had taken the initiative to help her stuff her heavy bag into the luggage rack above her head on the high-speed train.
Thinking she lived in poverty, he kindly gave her a piece of chocolate.
Grandma Su reached into her nylon pocket and pulled out a fresh wild Gastrodia elata and handed it to Boss Cheng. "Young man, this is for you. Take it home and make some soup."
"This is good stuff for calming the liver and calming the wind. I see you're exhausted both physically and mentally. Drinking this won't do any harm."
Wild Gastrodia elata is also a good thing.
Boss Cheng also took a fancy to the Gastrodia elata, but was too embarrassed to accept the old man's favor for free, so he handed the old man a business card.
"My name is Cheng Taoguang, and I run a small business at home. Auntie, if you need me in the future, just give me a call!"
"You really don't want to sell the matsutake mushrooms?" Boss Cheng still refused to give up. He said, "How about I add another ten thousand?"
Grandma Su shook her head firmly, "No, no, no."
Only then did Boss Cheng say goodbye with regret.
Chen He and Qin Yi walked over.
Chen He asked Su Jin, "Who is that, grandma?"
"A nice young man wanted to buy my matsutake mushrooms. He thought I was a poor old woman from the countryside and gave me a piece of chocolate."
Putting down the eggs, Grandma Su took out a piece of chocolate from her pocket and handed it to the two of them, "Share it between you two."
Qin Yi took the chocolate, looked down, and said, "DOMORI chocolate, imported, not cheap."
Chen He took the business card from Grandma Su's hand and read: "Cheng Taoguang, General Manager of Xiangrong Medical Manufacturing Co., Ltd."
"Keep it, it might be useful in the future."
After returning the business card to Grandma Su, Chen He picked up the bag of cured meat on the ground and reached out to grab Grandma Su's backpack.
"Grandma, let me carry the backpack."
Su Jin shook his head and said, "This isn't heavy."
She stared at the dress on Shen He and said with a smile: "Your dress is made of silk, it's very expensive, don't let it get scratched."
Chen He could only give up.
Qin Yi picked up the bucket of eggs and said, "Grandma, the car is parked over there in the garage. Let's walk over!" Qin Yi was sweet-mouthed. She took Su Jin's hand and talked while walking, making the old lady smile.
Shen He fell a few steps behind.
She felt uncomfortable when she saw the old man walking in a hurry.
How could such a strong grandma fall into the fish pond and drown?
*
Qin Yi drove the car, and Shen He sat in the back with her grandmother.
Grandma took out a plastic bag from her pocket, which contained some crushed sesame candies.
She picked a piece and handed it to Qin Yi, and stuffed the rest to Chen He.
Grandma Su said, "You loved eating this when you were a kid. Today, when I was going to the city, I passed by the town and saw that Old Lady Wang was still selling hemp candy, so I brought you one."
"Try it and see if it still tastes like when you were a kid."
Chen He and Grandma Su lived in poverty when they were young, but every time they went to the market in town, Grandma Su would weigh a pound of hemp candy from Grandma Wang.
A bite of sugar can bring sweetness to Chen He's heart.
Chen He rarely acted like a spoiled child, "Grandma, feed me."
Grandma Su laughed and scolded her for being shameless, but she still picked a piece and fed it to Chen He.
The familiar sweet taste filled her mouth, and Shen He's eyes turned red. Afraid that her grandmother would notice, she tilted her head to look out the window.
Holding back the tears, Shen He said, "It's delicious. It tastes just like when I was a kid."
"I said that Mrs. Wang is a real person."
Grandma Su's brows darkened again. She said, "Old Mrs. Wang fell down before the New Year and nearly froze to death in the toilet. Luckily, a neighbor found her and saved her life."
"But that fall has left her with all sorts of health problems. I don't know if I'll be able to see her again next time I go to market."
Hearing this, Shen He couldn't help but think of the scene in her previous life where Grandma Su floated on the water after her death.
Chen He's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly held Grandma Su's hand, "Grandma, since you're here this time, don't go back, okay?"
Every time she came, Shen He would invite Grandma Su to settle down.
This time, Grandma Su didn't take it seriously.
She said, "Miaomiao, I'm very happy that you're so kind. But I'm still in good health now, and I've gotten used to life in the countryside."
"When grandma can no longer work, I'll come and live with you, okay?"
Chen He opened a studio and was in the period of striving for his career. If his wife stayed in the city, she would become a burden to Chen He.
Hearing this, Shen He felt powerless.
Qin Yi, who had been holding back her words, suddenly said something harsh: "Grandma, Miaomiao fainted during her morning run yesterday, did you know?"
Grandma Shen's expression changed in shock, and she pulled Shen He to ask, "You fainted? What happened?"
Qin Yi answered for Chen He: "The doctor said Miaomiao is anemic, and also said that she has irregular menstruation and cold uterus, and is infertile."
Qin Yi continued to scare Grandma Su: "Mu Tingyun's family is very big, and there is a throne to inherit. If Chen He can't have children, Mu Tingyun will definitely break up with Chen He."
"Grandma, you are also a doctor, so why don't you stay and supervise Chen He to take medicine and recuperate."
Chen He: “…”
Just as Chen He was about to warn Qin Yi not to talk nonsense, she heard Grandma Su say, "I'll stay and take care of Miaomiao!"
Chen He quickly shut up. He didn't expect that this matter would be accomplished so smoothly.
Grandma Su held Chen He's hand and said distressedly: "Although you were a premature baby, you have been drinking milk since you were a child, and your body has always been strong."
"If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known you had anemia and a cold uterus. Tell me honestly, have you not been eating well in the past few years?"
Not wanting to worry the old man, Shen He said, "It's just mild anemia."
