Seeing his grandmother waiting for him at home, Zhou Mingqian quickly stepped forward and asked, "Grandma, why did you come here?"
"If I hadn't come over, how would I have known you were living outside with your wife and kids? Did your mother and the others do something to upset you again?" Grandma looked at Zhou Mingqian with concern.
Zhou Mingqian shook his head. His grandmother was already old, and he didn't want to tell her about those troublesome things.
But what exactly did the Zhou family mean by this? Why did they bring Grandma over?
“You’ve always been so stubborn. You’re the eldest son of the Zhou family, and your parents will be your responsibility in the future. Now that you’re living outside, do you not plan to take care of your parents in the future?” Although she felt sorry for them, Grandma was still very concerned about these issues of taking care of them in their old age.
In her eyes, the eldest son was always the one who would carry on the family line.
How could she kick her eldest son out of the house? When she came over here, she scolded her daughter and son-in-law.
Zhou Mingqian finally understood. When he was little, his grandmother loved him the most and always saved the best food for him.
If it weren't for this matter, he wouldn't have wanted to go against the old man's wishes.
“Grandma, I never shirk my responsibilities. You know my personality. Back then, it was my mother and her family who kicked my wife out. I know what they meant. They wanted me to listen to them in everything. But you also know that my parents only care about my little sister,” Zhou Mingqian said truthfully.
When talking about this, Grandma was also very angry. "I don't know what your parents were thinking. They spoiled their daughter so much that she didn't know the sky was the limit. When I talked to them, neither of them took it seriously. Sigh, Grandma is getting old, and no one listens to what I say anymore."
Zhou Mingqian felt heartbroken, but he didn't give in.
Both he and his wife felt much more relaxed after moving out of that house.
No need to hide anything when eating anymore.
"You know, Grandma knows she can't persuade you, and she knows your parents didn't call me over with good intentions, but, Qian boy, no matter what, we're all family. We can only keep warm together. It's not right for you to live alone outside, and for your wife to give birth without anyone to help her. It's not right," Grandma said earnestly.
Zhou Mingqian asked his grandmother to sit by the fire. "Grandma, I asked Aunt Zhu for help with this. You know my mother, she doesn't like being taken care of during her postpartum period."
Grandma's face stiffened. This was indeed true. Whether it was Zhou Lao Er's wife or Zhou Lao San's wife, their mothers from their own families helped with their postpartum care.
"Grandma went to talk to her," he said awkwardly.
Zhou Mingqian shook his head. "Mother is getting old, and we, as the younger generation, shouldn't cause her any trouble."
Grandma, being an old and shrewd woman, knew that her eldest grandson didn't trust his mother. Sighing deeply, she wondered what Cuihua was thinking.
They neglect their perfectly good son and dote on their daughter like a treasure. Don't they know that their daughter will eventually marry out and become someone else's family?
No matter what, her daughter always had an expression that said she would enjoy a life of luxury with her little girl in the future.
"Alright, Grandma knows. Grandma won't be annoying anymore. I won't interfere in your affairs anymore. Just make sure you know what's right. But when your mother gets old, you should still lend a hand, no matter what. Grandma doesn't know if she'll be able to see your child born."
"Grandma, don't think about those things. You're in good health and you'll definitely live to be a hundred."
Grandma's furrowed brows relaxed a bit. "Wouldn't that make me an old monster? Grandma wouldn't dare think about that. As long as you're all doing well, that's all that matters. Grandma lives one day at a time. Actually, I know your mother and the others have other plans, but Grandma hasn't seen you in a long time. This is a good opportunity to come over. Otherwise, Grandma's eyes won't be able to close properly in the future."
Zhou Mingqian didn't like hearing these things. Although he knew that everyone would eventually face that day, his grandmother was still in good health.
The grandmother knew what he meant when she saw that her eldest grandson didn't respond. She glanced at Shen Banxia beside her and couldn't help but glare at her secretly.
Shen Banxia could tell that her grandmother did indeed have some health problems.
After thinking for a moment, she said, "Grandma, let me take a look at you."
Grandma shook her head; she knew her own body best.
Zhou Mingqian chimed in, "Grandma, my wife's medical skills are amazing now. Even my uncle's boss's wife comes to her for treatment."
Grandma looked at Chen Banxia with surprise, "Really?"
Zhou Mingqian nodded firmly, "Yes, Grandma, just let her take a look. If she's sick, she can get medical treatment; if she's not, she can have her pulse checked."
Grandma laughed and said, "Oh my, even an old lady like me has a day when she can take a man's pulse. That was the kind of treatment that landladys used to receive."
She stopped worrying about the things her daughter had told her; she could tell that her eldest grandson and his wife were good people.
After systematically learning from her grandfather, Shen Banxia Qingmai discovered that she is now increasingly able to understand certain ailments.
She is now 70% confident about Su Yu's situation.
I'll just wait for an opportunity to explain it to him someday.
In particular, the family's "Thirteen Deadly Needles" consist of three basic needles, three advanced needles, three high-level needles, and three supreme needles. The last version, the Life-Extending Needle, can extend the life of a dying person and stimulate vitality.
At present, Shen Banxia has only been exposed to the first three basic acupuncture techniques, but basic lesions can be completely resolved with acupuncture.
She never knew that headaches, fevers, and stomach aches could be treated with acupuncture. Considering that she herself could awaken her past life memories and start the script, she could understand these things.
But Shen Banxia still found it amazing, especially since the effect would be even better when combined with medication.
According to my grandfather, the Shen family is famous not only for their acupuncture skills, but also for their insights into health preservation.
Shen Banxia realized that she had underestimated the heritage of the imperial physicians' family.
Right now, Shen Banxia knew what was going on. "Grandma, did you fall into the water when you were little?"
Grandma exclaimed in surprise, "You can even do that?"
Shen Banxia nodded. It wasn't hard to guess. "Have you been feeling cold lately? Your hands and feet are always cold, and even when you're covered up thickly, you still feel a chill. You're also not feeling well during the day and always feel sleepy?"
Grandma nodded repeatedly, "Isn't that exactly right? Otherwise, why would she think that her days are numbered?"
After receiving acupuncture, half an hour later, her grandmother held her hand and said, "Banxia, you are a good person. Our Ziqian is so lucky. Oh my, I never thought that my body could feel warm for a day."
"Grandma, you need to have acupuncture for nine consecutive days. In addition, you will need to take Chinese medicine. The cold symptoms will be resolved then."
Grandma was overjoyed; who wouldn't want to be alive?
"Okay, okay, Grandma will listen to you."
Meanwhile, at the Zhou family home, Zhou's mother was still waiting for news of her mother.
