"It should be. Ever since his sister-in-law caused trouble, he's been holding onto this issue."
Then when we went back, we told them to come over, and I could tell he was very happy at that time. I guess he must have had his own plans for his retirement, but he was caught off guard and left in a hurry, which was also a helpless move.
Putting aside his sister-in-law, his brother has seen all his hard work over the years, and yet it was all ruined like this. How could he not be furious? The one who did it was a junior. He has just retired, and there are definitely people watching him closely. He can't just retaliate openly.
Plus, with a room full of kids, it would be strange if they didn't get stressed.
It's only because the old lady is easygoing and open-minded, otherwise…
Qin Qinghuai's tone was also sullen. In this way, it was equivalent to being half-forced to leave home and forced to retire early. They had been upright people all their lives, and now they were in high positions. How could they not be angry?
Given the Qin family's connections, they naturally wouldn't sit idly by and wait to be killed. However, the Qin family is currently the victim, and in everyone's eyes, they are the ones who deserve sympathy. If something were to happen to the other party at this time, anyone with eyes would guess that the Qin family was involved.
"Originally, I was thinking of waiting until this wave of things had passed before taking action. They have been honest their whole lives, and if they are caught making baseless accusations because of this, someone might take the opportunity to bite them. Since they have already backed down, there is really no need to take this risk."
I really didn't expect it to have such a big impact on him. He should believe me; I'm not the kind of person who doesn't hold grudges.
To be honest, this man is rarely this sullen.
"It's possible that he doesn't distrust you. It's normal for him to feel uncomfortable about this, but there are things he might not be able to say. At his age, he probably thinks he can judge people quite clearly, so this is quite a blow to him."
I had been holding it all in, my mind was heavy, and when I sweated and was blown by the wind, it probably wasn't a big deal, but I guess all that pent-up anger just came out, which is why I had such a high fever.
Don't worry, we'll go check on him again tomorrow. Dad's been through so much in his life, and this is probably just because it involves family, which is why it's affecting his emotions so much. He'll figure it out."
Jian Dan wasn't good at comforting people; even she felt her words were dry and useless. After thinking for a moment, she still reached out and hugged the person.
"Don't worry, it will be alright, everything will be alright."
They spoke very well to persuade him, but unsurprisingly, the next morning when the two of them went to deliver breakfast, the old man's condition had worsened. His fever was fluctuating, he was dizzy, his throat was so inflamed that he could barely speak, and he was half asleep and half awake.
Without further ado, they took him straight to the clinic. After a whole ordeal, they got him hooked up to an IV drip, and only when they saw that the old man's breathing was no longer so heavy did everyone finally relax.
The military doctor was also somewhat frightened; he didn't even want to imagine the consequences if something had happened to his old leader here.
"Political Commissar, as people get older, their immune systems are much weaker than those of younger people. You all need to pay more attention to yourselves. If you have any headaches or fevers, come here immediately. Don't think you can just tough it out. You can't just endure it at this age."
Qin Qinghuai listened attentively, his expression very serious.
"We will definitely keep a close eye on it. Please treat us as prescribed these next few days. We will follow the doctor's orders."
This is just a clinic; it can only provide temporary medical treatment. Hospitalization is not possible.
"Okay, after this bottle is finished, you can go home. But you must keep an eye on yourself, avoid overexertion and excessive worry, eat a light diet, and breathe plenty of fresh air. However, you must not be exposed to wind after sweating, and since it's getting cold, you need to keep warm."
The old man has many hidden injuries. On rainy days and when the wind is strong, his legs must be very sore. He can only recover slowly.”
After pausing for a moment, considering the family's background and circumstances, he added,
"If possible, give them more fruits and vegetables, such as apples, oranges, bananas, spinach, and celery. Eating more of these can boost immunity and also relieve local discomfort."
Ginger can induce sweating and relieve pain, so give your child ginger water to drink regularly.
Pork, beef, lamb, and fish can also provide some relief. It doesn't need to be complicated; just make soup. Bone broth can also help replenish bones and prevent osteoporosis.
Ah, get some pine nuts, give him some pine nut kernels. Pine nuts can nourish the kidneys and spleen, and strengthen muscles and bones. Not only Chief Qin, but Chief Zhong is the same. At this age, especially after the hardships they suffered when they were young, their bodies are actually severely depleted. If possible, even if there are no obvious symptoms, it is helpful to supplement their diet.
Besides these, you can eat bitter melon, wood ear mushrooms, chicken, dates, and walnuts. Also, eat more easily digestible staple foods, and avoid spicy foods and strong-flavored foods in moderation.
Seeing his alarmed expression, I realized I had said too much and caused a misunderstanding, so I quickly waved my hand.
“What I mean is, at this age, even if there are no obvious symptoms, eating more of these things is good for your health. Others may tell you, but they can’t get them. Hearing too much of it will only make you more anxious and upset. You and your sister-in-law have many connections and you don’t lack the money, so I just said a little more.”
Qin Qinghuai secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thank you, we'll find a way. Just tell us how to treat this, what medicine to use, and we'll figure it out."
Military doctors naturally prefer family members like this; they still remember the medicine the family had previously given them.
However, there are also things to worry about.
"Political Commissar, let me tell you, schools have been in session for so long, and this clinic is still so shabby, is that alright?"
Qin Qinghuai understood his meaning perfectly well. The hospital was originally part of the plan, but they hadn't considered its priority when making the plan. Now it seemed that they had been a bit careless.
"Don't look so pitiful. I'll go back and discuss it with the battalion commander. Even if we start construction now, it won't be finished in ten days or half a month. It's almost freezing."
The unique climate of Northeast China means that some jobs are seasonal. For example, building houses is very difficult once it freezes. Not only can you not break ground, but you can't even stretch your hands out outdoors, making it inconvenient to do anything. That's why people in Northeast China hibernate during winter.
Seeing that he had softened his stance, the military doctor quickly played the victim again, until Qin Qinghuai agreed repeatedly, saying that they would discuss the topic when they got back today, before Qin Qinghuai let him go.
Only after finishing the IV drip and taking the old man home did Qin Qinghuai feel relieved enough to go back to work.
Normally, after this incident, it would be difficult to go up the mountain again. Moreover, we've already spent most of the morning fighting, and it's almost noon. But when I heard that we could eat meat and drink bone broth, I thought about it and decided to pick up my basket, grab my knife, and head out the door.
