"It was when I went up the mountain to pick mushrooms that I accidentally..." Tang Wan naturally couldn't tell the real reason.
"It's all because of me. Tang Zhiqing is kind-hearted. When I was picking mushrooms, I didn't stand firmly, so she pulled me up. Unexpectedly, she fell down the mountain instead, and that's why she was injured so seriously." Grandma Bai added.
When talking to Zhong Ling and Sister Yanhong, Grandma Bai was not so kind, and seemed like a somewhat stubborn old woman.
"Is that so? It seems we still have to be careful when picking mushrooms in the mountains." Zhong Ling's face showed some inquiry.
Tang Wan instantly understood what Zhong Ling was thinking.
Although Zhong Ling didn't care about Tang Wan's feelings when she was last there, she knew that nothing like that had happened.
That's why she felt something was wrong this time.
"When we went mushroom picking in the afternoon, we left the mountain a little late. We met Grandma Bai on the way, so we went together. It was my carelessness. I didn't expect that the mountain would still be a bit slippery after the rain." Tang Wan said with some self-blame.
When Zhong Ling heard her say it was too late, she put aside most of her doubts.
It must be because she met Zhao Donglai who brought her an umbrella, which delayed her time, that Tang Wan met Grandma Bai and the current situation occurred.
In his previous life, Zhao Dong did not send an umbrella at this time, so it did not happen.
It’s right to think so.
Zhong Ling let down her guard and the smile on her face became more sincere.
Although I still doubt why Grandma Bai, who is so stubborn, would go mushroom picking with Tang Wan, but people usually have a good impression of each other, so it's hard to say.
Anyway, she got the answer she wanted, so Zhong Ling didn't care about it anymore.
"Do you want to go back to the educated youth camp to recuperate? If necessary, Zhong Ling and I can help you go back." Sister Yanhong asked.
"No need. The educated youth came here to save me. How can I let her go back like this? Let her stay with me for a few days, which will make it easier to change her medicine. I'll have to trouble you to take care of her when she goes to the educated youth center." Grandma Bai refused directly.
Perhaps because of Sister Yanhong's usual impression of Grandma Bai, she didn't dare to refute her when she spoke.
It was Zhong Ling who spoke up again: "In that case, I'll leave Tang Zhiqing here with you. When the time comes, I'll send you her rations for the next few days."
"Do you need us to pack up your clothes and other things and send some to you?" Zhong Ling asked again.
"No need, you won't be able to rest for long at noon, I can just go back to get some in the afternoon with my crutches." Tang Wan picked up the crutches beside the stool and gestured
"Okay, I'm glad to know you're fine. We'll go home first then."
Zhong Ling told Sister Yanhong that it was over.
After they left, Grandma Bai's smile returned to her face: "These two are really good people."
Tang Wan turned her gaze to look at Grandma Bai, only to hear Grandma Bai continue, "Sometimes, saving face is more important than actual action. People like this can do well."
Grandma Bai was saying that the two of them were just putting on an act.
Tang Wan also knew this, but she didn't expect Grandma Bai to say it so bluntly.
This was because he was afraid that she might not notice and instead treat them as close friends.
Tang Wan was grateful to Grandma Bai in her heart. Not everyone is willing to give advice to others.
Especially people like Grandma Bai. In Tang Wan's eyes, she is insightful and intelligent, but in front of outsiders, she appears like an unreasonable old woman.
Grandma Bai must have her reasons for doing this, but Tang Wan didn't feel comfortable asking now.
