The physician who accompanied Prefect Sun said, "Young General Du, since there are other doctors who can treat General Shen, then I don't need to trouble myself. I'll take my leave now."
He didn't believe the old man was a miracle doctor.
Who is Doctor Zhang? His medical skills have reached the point where he can bring the dead back to life, and even make withered trees come back to life and make flesh grow back on bones.
This old man doesn't seem to have such advanced medical skills at all.
He originally thought that by threatening him like this, General Du would definitely beg him to stay and drive away the two swindlers.
Unexpectedly, General Du simply gave a faint "hmm" and didn't even glance at him.
It's infuriating.
He secretly vowed that once those two swindlers had swindled the money and left, they should forget about asking him to save anyone.
Shen Danru was also secretly observing the two people. Through their actions, Shen Danru came to the conclusion that the two people did not want her grandfather to recover.
That was his thought, and Du Huan also had some doubts, so he immediately subdued the two of them and suppressed them.
We'll settle accounts with those two after the old general wakes up.
After General Du subdued the two men, Shen Danru continued to feed her grandfather medicine.
Perhaps Shen Shi could hear the conversation inside the room, or perhaps his will to survive was too strong, because he swallowed all the medicine that Shen Danru fed him.
An hour later, General Shen Shi slowly opened his eyes.
The moment he opened his eyes, he saw Shen Danru.
"Who are you?"
Upon seeing that General Shen had regained consciousness, Du Huan and the military doctor hurriedly stepped forward: "General, you're awake. Dr. Zhang, we'd like to trouble you to examine our general again."
He nodded deeply.
She stepped forward to take her grandfather's pulse again. Most of the poison had been neutralized, but his body had been completely drained, and he was extremely weak.
She felt a pang of heartache and couldn't help but call out, "Grandfather."
A woman's voice suddenly came from inside the room, startling everyone present.
Du Huan reacted quickly and immediately stood in front of General Shen's bed, his eyes sharp: "Who are you? You are not Doctor Zhang."
Shen Shi looked at Shen Danru in surprise, and saw her slowly take off the human skin mask, revealing the face he had been thinking about all night.
His nose tingled, his eyes instantly reddened, and he murmured, "Yang'er."
He tried to sit up, but he had no strength left in his body.
Upon seeing this, Shen Danru hurriedly tried to step forward to help, but Du Huan blocked her way.
Shen Shi ordered Du Huan: "Step back."
Du Huan feared that Shen Danru would be detrimental to General Shen, so he did not make a move.
Shen Danru explained, "General Du, there's no need to be nervous. General Shen Shi is my grandfather. I just saved him, didn't I? If anyone would harm my grandfather, it would be impossible for me."
Du Huan thought this made sense.
But he still had doubts: "Are you really General Shen's granddaughter? What evidence do you have to prove it?"
He remembered that not long ago, after reading a letter, General Shen suddenly burst into laughter.
At the time, he was also a little curious. General Shen was always serious, so when had he ever been so happy?
He and Shen Yutang secretly asked General Shen, and learned that General Shen had found his long-lost son and that he had five grandsons and granddaughters.
This means he is no longer alone.
Considering his advanced age, General Shen wished to apply to the Emperor to be transferred back to Shengjing to enjoy his retirement with his family.
Du Huan's greatest admiration since childhood was for General Shen. He had always dreamed of joining the army under General Shen.
Therefore, he practiced martial arts diligently from a young age, and went directly to the border to join the army when he grew up.
He made numerous military achievements and eventually climbed to his current position, standing behind General Shen Shi.
He felt deeply sorry for the old man and was genuinely happy for General Shen after he found his family.
However, the emperor replied that due to the tense situation at the border, he needed to wait until the Northern Di Kingdom was defeated before he could be allowed to return to Shengjing.
Shen had no choice but to obey the emperor's order and remain on the border.
They finally defeated the Northern Di Kingdom, and the emperor allowed them to return to the capital. However, when they reached Yongyang City, the border was once again under attack, and they had to turn back to the frontier.
Unexpectedly, General Shen's granddaughter actually found the border.
However, whether this person is General Shen's granddaughter still needs to be verified to prevent anyone from impersonating her.
Shen Danru understood that this person was doing it to protect her grandfather's safety, so she did not blame him.
She pointed to her face and said, "My face is proof enough."
Just as Du Huan was about to reprimand her, he heard General Shen say, "Ru'er, are you Ru'er? You look so alike, so very alike."
"Grandfather, it's me."
Du Huan had no reason to stop her anymore, so he took a step back and kept a close eye on Shen Danru.
Shen Danru stepped forward: "Grandfather, I am Ru'er."
She helped General Shen sit up.
Shen Shi carefully examined Shen Danru, and before he knew it, tears were streaming down his face.
His granddaughter looked so much like his son that there was no doubt that she was his granddaughter.
When Shen Danru saw her grandfather shed tears, she also felt heartbroken.
The moment the sixty-year-old woman burst into tears, Shen Danru also burst into tears.
My grandfather fought on the battlefield for half his life. He never showed any fear when facing the enemy, but he cried when facing his own family.
My grandmother, Lan Yangyang, has been gone for nearly forty years. As time goes by, her appearance has long since disappeared from everyone's memory.
However, her grandfather recognized her at a glance.
This shows how deep the grandfather's feelings were for the grandmother; over the years, the grandfather has never forgotten the grandmother.
Upon seeing this, Yuan Ying immediately signaled Du Huan and the military doctor to leave the room so that Shen Danru could have a proper reunion with her grandfather.
The military doctor tactfully left, and Du Huan, somewhat unwilling, was dragged away by Yuan Ying.
Shen Danru took out a handkerchief and wiped away her grandfather's tears.
Shen Shi realized he had embarrassed himself in front of his granddaughter and quickly said, "Good child, I'm fine."
"Grandfather, don't be sad. Now our family is finally reunited, and we will live happily ever after."
Shen nodded, feeling a sense of relief.
Who said he was all alone when he was down on his luck? Look, this is his wonderful granddaughter, she really feels sorry for him.
A woman, worried about her grandfather's safety, traveled thousands of miles to the border. Let alone Ru'er being a woman, how many men could do that?
Although he was overjoyed, he, as the grandfather, still needed to give Shen Danru a good talking-to regarding his behavior.
He scolded her sternly, "Ru'er, didn't your grandfather already reply to you, telling you to wait for me to return in Shengjing? How could a young lady like you run off to the border alone? It's too dangerous."
Shen Danru retorted defiantly, "So what if I'm a girl? Even if I am a girl, I am still my grandfather's bloodline. My grandfather could go to the battlefield to fight the enemy, so can I."
Chen was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.
"Good, good, she really is my good granddaughter."
When Shen Danru saw his grandfather smile, he felt happy too.
