"Mu girl, just tell grandpa straight, don't be the only one happy! You have to let grandpa have fun too!" Grandpa Fu felt like he was being scratched by a cat and couldn't wait to ask.
Seeing how they were hesitant and unable to speak, it must be a very embarrassing thing. Otherwise, how could this kid be so shameless as to be embarrassed to say it?
"That won't work! Let's eat first! Don't talk about it until after dinner!" Mu Qingli didn't want to discuss this issue with them before dinner.
"Then I'll watch you eat! After you finish eating, cure me and I'll just drink some soup!" Old Zhou couldn't go to eat anyway, so he sat there motionless and said.
"Mr. Mu, our family is not ignorant of the ways of the world. When a guest comes to our house, how can we let him drink vegetable soup? Go and cure him!" Old Master Fu waved his hand generously.
"Yes, sir! My leader has spoken. I'll go get the medicine right away! It's in Hongzhou's room. You wait a moment!" Mu Qingli said, and ran upstairs with her cloth bag on her back.
Old Master Fu smiled as he looked at Mu Qingli's back. Who doesn't know that her shoulder bag is a treasure box?
"Hey! Old Man Fu, your future fortune has come! How did your grandson find this girl?"
"Hey! It's no use for you to be jealous, old man. This is my granddaughter-in-law! She is well-behaved, sensible, and has her own ideas!" Grandpa Fu looked proud.
Old Zhou also agreed. This girl seemed to listen to Old Man Fu in everything, but in fact, she already knew everything in her mind, but she just gave all the favors to Old Man Fu.
After a while, Mu Qingli came down with a small porcelain bottle. It was a gourd-shaped porcelain bottle about the size of a thumb, just like the small Chinese medicine pill bottles you buy.
"Here, Mr. Zhou, do it! You will be fine immediately!" Mu Qingli said with a smile.
"Really?" Mr. Zhou took the small medicine bottle and asked seriously.
"If you have doubts, don't drink it. Who forced you to drink it? Give it back to me!" Old Master Fu said as he was about to snatch it away.
"Who doubted it?" said Mr. Zhou after he dodged Mr. Fu's clutches.
"It's your blessing to meet my granddaughter-in-law, and it's also thanks to my magnanimity that I didn't argue with you and let my granddaughter-in-law treat you. Otherwise, you would be in pain for the rest of your life!" Old Master Fu still looked at Old Man Zhou with disgust, but his eyes were filled with genuine worry and heartache.
"Old man Fu, are you saying that my hidden disease can be cured?" Old Zhou said excitedly and somewhat moved.
"You'll know if you try it!" Old Master Fu glared at him unhappily.
In fact, when he recovered from his illness, he had thought of asking Fu Hongzhou to ask for another dose of medicine to help Old Man Zhou treat his illness. However, it was a turbulent time and he didn't dare to contact him.
Besides, Mr. Zhou’s hidden illness has been going on for a while, so we can wait until the situation has passed before dealing with it.
If Mr. Fu had come to treat him at that time, it might have implicated Old Man Zhou. After all, there were many conflicts in all aspects during that period.
Now, things have relaxed. Seeing that he really came to his door, Mr. Fu has a way out and directly let Mu Qingli treat him.
When Mr. Zhou heard what Mr. Fu said, he drank the medicine in the small porcelain bottle without saying a word. After drinking it, he even savored the taste.
Mr. Fu was simply disgusted: "You're drinking? What's wrong with your mouth? Aren't you ashamed?"
"Hey! We are all from humble backgrounds, so why should we be afraid of being embarrassed? Besides, it tastes pretty good! When I drink it, it feels like my internal organs are smeared with cooling oil! So comfortable!" After drinking it, Mr. Zhou felt it carefully and said happily.
"Haha!" Now everyone laughed.
Mr. Zhou's adjective really makes people laugh.
If your internal organs have been smeared with cooling oil but your brain hasn't been given enough air to breathe, you will definitely not be able to say such words.
"You old man, what nonsense are you talking about? Can we eat now?" Mr. Fu was also amused by Mr. Zhou.
Mr. Zhou didn't say yes or no, but looked at Mu Qingli.
"Why are you looking at me? Go eat! Try the effect of the medicine!" Mu Qingli said with a smile.
Seeing that Mu Qingli said it was time to eat, Old Man Zhou and Old Man Fu walked towards the dining table together.
Old Master Fu shook his head. This kid has come to this day. He doesn’t even dare to eat without my granddaughter-in-law’s permission.
Just as he took a step, Mr. Zhou suddenly froze.
"What's wrong again? Why are you so troublesome?" Old Master Fu stopped impatiently, turned around and looked at him.
"My legs don't hurt anymore!" Mr. Zhou said very seriously.
As Mr. Zhou spoke, he took a few more steps, moving with great vigor, no longer staggering and walking slowly as he did at the beginning.
"Take it easy, kid!" Old Man Fu couldn't help but remind him.
They all knew that Old Man Zhou had been shot in the legs. There were several bullet holes on both legs. The bullets had grazed his legs, sending blood and flesh flying and breaking half of his bones. Even though he was cured later, he still felt pain and his leg bones could not recover to their original state.
But Old Man Zhou is very strong. Even when his legs hurt when he walks, he won't let anyone support him. Instead, he walks slowly on his own. People who don't know him would definitely not be able to tell that Old Man Zhou has any injuries and would think that he walks slowly to show off!
In fact, every time I walk, I have to endure severe pain, and my body is covered with wounds. When it is cloudy or cold, the pain is unbearable.
"I've said it before, it's your blessing to meet my granddaughter-in-law. Do you think I'm bragging?" Grandpa Fu had expected this and was not surprised at all.
"Old brother! This is equivalent to rebirth! I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. Sometimes, I want to end my life to get rid of it. If I wasn't afraid that you would laugh at me for being useless every day, I would feel tired of living!" Old Zhou said, tears streaming down his face.
