That evening, after confirming that Ning Zhiyuan had gone to sleep, Zhao Hui and Sang Youde secretly went to find Grandma Zhang's family.
Ever since Ning Zhiyuan discovered them last time, they haven't dared to go looking for Granny Zhang and the others again.
It's been so long since I've seen them. I wonder how Grandma Zhang and the others are doing?
"Old Zhang, open the door, it's me."
Zhao Hui stood outside and called out softly for a while before someone came to open the door.
The person who opened the door was Granny Zhang's son.
"Aunt Zhao, please save my mother."
What happened to your mother?
Sang Youde whispered a reminder, "Let's go inside first and talk about it."
Zhao Hui and Sang Youde spotted the person lying on the small bed at a glance. When Grandma Zhang saw someone coming, she struggled to lift her head and looked over. Their eyes met, and tears streamed down their faces.
"My mom tripped and fell while working in the fields."
"Did you take her to the hospital?"
"They went to the health center."
"The doctor said my mother is old and malnourished, and it will probably be difficult for her to recover."
"Did she break any bones?"
"It's not broken, but the bone is injured."
Zhao Hui noticed that Granny Zhang's complexion was not right, and touched her forehead. "Does she have a fever?"
"I've had a fever for several days and it just won't go down. We don't know what to do."
"We brought fever reducers with us."
Zhao Hui quickly took a bottle of fever reducer from the sack that Sang Youde was carrying and fed it to Grandma Zhang with water.
She then checked Grandma Zhang's calves and thankfully found no inflammation, so it wasn't as bad as she had imagined. She secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"It takes 100 days to recover from a broken bone or tendon. It's not that easy to heal. Let's get the fever down first."
"Old Zhang, don't go out to work in the fields for a while. Just stay here and rest. We'll try to bring you nutritious soup often."
Grandma Zhang held Zhao Hui's hand and said as if she were giving her last instructions, "Hui, if I'm gone, you have to take good care of them for me. They are my biggest worry right now."
"Old Zhang, what are you saying? Don't worry, I won't let you go."
"I know my own situation, and I feel so tired."
Grandma Zhang, however, felt that death wasn't necessarily a bad thing.
If it weren't for her family, she probably would have died long ago.
"Living well is more important than anything else. You are the pillar of the family, and nothing can happen to you."
Zhao Hui chatted with her for a while longer before going back.
The next day, Zhao Hui was still a little worried, so she made bone broth and brought it to Grandma Zhang early in the morning.
Besides bone broth, she also brought more than a dozen egg pancakes.
"Everyone come and have some food. We don't need to make breakfast today."
"Old Zhang, take good care of yourself. I'll try to bring you delicious food more often from now on, okay?"
Grandma Zhang took fever-reducing medicine yesterday and her fever has subsided. She is in much better spirits today.
"Ah Hui, without you, I probably wouldn't have made it this far."
"Oh, stop talking about that. We're best friends, it's only right that we help each other out."
"You guys eat first, I have to go back now."
Zhao Hui wouldn't let them see her off. As soon as she went out, she found a secluded spot and quickly slipped into her spatial dimension to go home.
Everyone thought that Grandma Zhang's condition would get better and better, but the result was disappointing.
Simple dietary therapy and rest were no longer enough to restore her to her original state.
Having no other option, Zhao Hui approached Sang Feiyu, expressing her desire to bring Granny Zhang to live with her.
