Chapter 184 The old lady was injured
"Mom, come out and see who's here?" Wang Sufen shouted with a happy face as she just walked to the gate of the yard.
However, the old lady who usually came out to greet people when she heard the sound was nowhere to be seen, and the entire yard was empty.
Wang Sufen was a little confused. The old lady basically stayed at home because of her legs and feet. Could it be that she went out?
This is such an unfortunate coincidence!
Shen Yuanjun was carrying something and walking in front.
The gate of the Wang family's courtyard was not closed, but left ajar. The three people knocked on the door, and when they heard no response, they pushed the door open and walked in.
“Boom!”
At this moment, the sound of something falling was heard in the room.
Wang Sufen heard that the sound came from the old lady's room, so she quickly took two steps and pushed open the door.
"Mom, you, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me!"
"Old Three, An An, come and help!"
Hearing Wang Sufen's exclamation, Shen Anan and Shen Yuanjun looked at each other and hurried into the room.
In the room, the old lady's half body was hanging on the edge of the bed, and she was about to fall.
Shen Yuanjun quickly put the things in his hand on the table, strode forward, picked up the old lady, and slowly put her back on the bed.
The moment the old lady's body touched the bed, she let out a series of cries of pain.
Shen Anan was also shocked when she saw the old lady’s appearance.
The person who had a rosy complexion before now looked haggard, had pale lips, and looked like he had lost a lot of weight.
It was already early spring, but the old lady was still covered with a thick quilt, and her thin body looked even thinner against the quilt.
The room was not well ventilated and the light was very dim because the doors and windows were closed.
There was a teapot on the table not far from the bed. Judging from the old lady's posture, she probably wanted to drink some water, but she accidentally fell under the bed.
Fortunately, they arrived in time and the person did not fall.
But from the looks of it, the old lady seemed to have other injuries on her body.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to cry out in pain as soon as he touched the bed.
Seeing the old lady like this, Shen Anan also became anxious.
She was apparently fine when she left, and it’s only been such a short time!
Wang Sufen's eyes were red. She tried to hold back her tears while rubbing the old lady's cold hands.
"Mom, why didn't you tell me you were sick?"
"What's wrong with you? Have you been to the hospital?"
She had clearly been to Wang's house half a month ago, and the old lady was fine at that time!
What on earth is going on?
Besides, where is her sister-in-law? Why let the old lady stay at home alone? What if something happens?
"Sufen, don't worry, Mom is fine. She just fell down accidentally a few days ago. She's really fine."
"I've had the barefoot doctor from our brigade check him out. He's fine and in good health!"
"An'an, Yuanjun, come here quickly so I can take a good look at you!" After the old lady recovered from the pain, she quickly explained.
Upon hearing this, Shen Yuanjun and Shen Anan came to the bedside. The old lady grabbed one in each hand, looked them up and down, and kept asking about their condition.
In particular, Shen Yuanjun's emotional issues were mentioned prominently, which made Shen Yuanjun blush and he couldn't utter a word for a long time.
The look in Shen Anan's eyes was full of love, complaining that she had been away for several months and didn't miss this little old lady.
"Grandma, is your fall serious? Let me see!" Shen Anan came forward and wanted to see the wound, but was rejected by the old lady.
"Grandma is fine, she just fell down, it's nothing serious."
"The doctor has checked my wound, and it's okay now, really okay." Although the old lady's voice was weak, she seemed to be in good spirits, perhaps because she was happy today.
Wang Sufen looked at the old lady's dry lips and reached out to take the kettle on the table.
But I found that there was not a drop of water in it, and I felt angry for a moment.
Is this how her elder brother and sister-in-law take care of the old lady?
Wang Sufen suppressed the anger in her heart and walked out with the kettle in her hand.
Just as I walked out of the room, I bumped into Mrs. Wang who was carrying a basket of herbs.
"Sufen, why are you here?" Mrs. Wang looked a little unnatural and blurted out.
But after saying this, she felt something was wrong and quickly said, "You're finally here. Mother has been thinking about you!"
"Hey, An An is here too, and so is Yuan Jun. It has been a few years since Yuan Jun went home!"
"What a change the boy has had!"
Mrs. Wang stepped forward and took the kettle from Wang Sufen's hand, "You guys go and talk to mom, I'll go boil some water!"
Wang Sufen pursed her lips and said nothing.
Although she was still somewhat dissatisfied that the Wang family did not inform her that the old lady was injured.
But when he saw Mrs. Wang carrying the herbs, he realized that they were probably for the old lady, so he didn't say anything.
There was a hint of suspicion in Shen Anan's eyes. Why did she feel that everyone was changing the subject when talking about the old lady's injury?
Moreover, Mrs. Wang's expression was obviously a little unnatural, so, could it be that the old lady didn't hurt herself by falling?
However, because the old lady obviously didn't want to bring up this topic, Shen Anan could only hide her guess in her heart.
After all, the old lady was injured and had little energy. After chatting for a while, she started yawning and couldn't control her eyelids.
Seeing this, Wang Sufen covered the old lady with a quilt, and then led Shen Anan and Shen Yuanjun out of the room quietly.
After handing over the things and specialties they brought to Mrs. Wang, the three of them did not stay for long and set off on their way home.
The old lady’s illness still made everyone feel heavy-hearted.
Shen Anan originally wanted to keep a few pieces of ginseng, but was afraid that the old lady would be reluctant to use them, so she planned to go home and make some soup, and then send it to the old lady.
Anyway, judging from her mother's expression, she must be worried about her grandmother, so she will come later.
Wang Sufen frowned all the way and said nothing.
"Mom, don't worry, grandma must be fine. How about we borrow the team's ox cart tomorrow and take grandma to the county hospital for another check-up." Shen Anan looked at Wang Sufen's face and quickly advised.
"Yes, mother, I don't think grandma's injuries are serious, don't worry." Shen Yuanjun also advised.
"Yes, Mom knows." Wang Sufen responded, but she couldn't let go of the worry in her heart.
She was too familiar with the Wang family, and even though she didn't have Shen Anan's keen observation skills, she noticed something was wrong.
Her mother and sister-in-law seem to be hiding something?
And when her mother saw her, her eyes were obviously evasive.
However, in order not to worry her daughter, Wang Sufen still forced a smile.
She wondered if the old lady was unable to say some things in front of An An and the third brother.
Wang Sufen pondered for a moment and decided to come again alone tomorrow.
Maybe her mother would say something...
