Chapter 236
After the family banquet, Gu Tingchen and his wife said goodbye to Liu Bureau Chief's house.
Helping each other home, after returning home, Gu Tingchen went to take a bath. Ye Mei Qin's face changed instantly after the other party left the room.
Disdainfully threw the red cotton coat into the deepest part of the cabinet, too lazy to look at it a second time.
Growing up in the countryside, the vision was really vulgar.
Forget it, it was just acting.
She just needed to play her role as a gentle wife and a considerate sister-in-law.
Just treat it as accumulating virtue and doing good for the child in her belly.
Gu Tingchen and his sister were both stupid...
I don't know how this person's ex-wife mixed, and didn't hold the two.
Tsk, it's really interesting.
Qingshan Mental Hospital—
Lu Manman, who had been transferred to the general ward, no longer looked like a person.
Her whole hair became frizzy, gray,
Wrinkles covered her whole face, she looked ten years older, looking like someone in her thirties.
With dull eyes, she was already the recognized crazy woman in the whole mental hospital.
What rebirth, what bureau chief's wife, crazy!
But what she said was useless. A group of fellow patients listened with relish, and at night they curled up on the hospital bed, shivering and saying they were wrong, shouldn't fight, anyway, there was no truth in their mouths.
Lu Manman was very broken. Every night when it was quiet, there was a quack-quack sound arguing with her, but after waking up, there was no source of noise in the room.
She was already like this, why was there still something haunting her?
Wasn't she miserable enough?
If having rebirth memories was a constant reminder of how bad she was living now, then giving her rebirth memories was a mistake!
God, why did you treat her like this!
She was already living very hard, but here, heaven didn't answer, earth didn't respond. Could she really only die here?
Wuwuwu.
She missed her mom, wanted to go home.
If she hadn't snatched Shen Man's marriage, would she still be Lu's foster daughter now, living a comfortable and enjoyable good life?
If she hadn't married Gu Tingchen, would the source of all misfortune have stopped abruptly?
She regretted it!
If she could do it all over again, she would definitely not snatch Shen Man's fiancé!
December in the capital, the night was very cold.
No radiators, no heating equipment. This winter, Lu Manman didn't know if she could survive.
Mom, Mom, where are you? Come find me quickly, take me home, I don't want to stay in the mental hospital!
People who often lived on the Sea Island knew that the Sea Island had a constant temperature all year round, and even in winter, there was no snow.
At most, the day and night temperature difference was about ten degrees, far less cold than the capital.
Plus hot water bags, warm gloves, and other heating and warming tools, this winter, the physical examination reports of the old men stunned their families!
The high blood sugar, high blood pressure, diabetes, cholesterol, cough, recurrence of gunshot wounds, lumbar disc herniation, rheumatism that the elderly were most prone to...
In these few months of Sea Island life, the symptoms gradually lessened. Now, the values were completely controlled!
Even the hidden injuries on Section Commander Duan, the physical examination reports of these few months, had improved a lot. Doctors said this was a miracle!
When the old men reported the good news to their families, their families were all stunned!
They thought their old men went to the Sea Island to play for a while and then went home.
Then they played for three months, half a year.
Now, the symptoms on their bodies had lessened, and one by one, they had no intention of coming back at all!
Emotionally speaking, they certainly wanted their old men to go home.
However, from the perspective of physical health, the old men staying on the Sea Island was more effective for physical recuperation and health!
Was this urging them to go home, or should they stop urging?
A stone stirred up a thousand waves. Many old friends conveyed it to each other, and then they blew the Sea Island life to the sky!
The leading figures in various industries, hearing the news, were all planning to go to the Sea Island for recuperation after the year, to see if it was as magical as the old friends said!
For a time, the leading figures from all over the world had heard that the Sea Island was helpful for recuperation.
And so, the person in charge of the retirement home on the Sea Island had constant telegrams recently. Retirement homes from all over the world sent him messages, asking him how he did it.
Did what?
He was also confused!
But good news, when the higher-ups allocated funds to him, the approval was shockingly fast!
Big figures were coming to him for recuperation next year, and the higher-ups required him to improve the retirement home in all aspects, expand, increase medical care...
Busy, and happy.
It's good, roll up your sleeves and do it!
Must make the retirement home the number one in the country!
One ring after another, with funds, not only was the treatment of the staff in the retirement home improved, but the food in the canteen was also much better.
Old Man Lu muttered yesterday that he wanted to eat millet pumpkin porridge, and today he ate it.
Old Man Lin muttered that he wanted to eat century egg and lean meat porridge, and today he drank it too.
Others laughed hee-hee. If they didn't know the weight of the two, they would also be like the turtle in the wishing pool, signaling the two to wish for something else.
For example, the capital's douzhi, fried dough sticks, roast duck.
They joked, completely not seeing the corners of the mouth of the female comrade who served the food twitching.
The food became better because the fund approval for the retirement home next year came down, not because the turtle in the wishing pool worked.
Still douzhi, fried dough sticks, roast duck, they hadn't seen them, hadn't heard of them, where could they replicate them...
Although they complained like this in their hearts, all the staff in their retirement home knew that if it weren't for this group of old men, their retirement home wouldn't have had the funds approved so quickly.
Therefore, serving this group of big masters was very necessary.
There would be more powerful big masters retiring next year, and the funds for next year might be even higher!
Old Man Pei ordered a portion of century egg and lean meat porridge and observed that the mental outlook of the staff in the retirement home today seemed to be much better again.
Toward them, the attitude was very respectful.
It wasn't that they weren't respectful before, but, more respectful.
Maybe, something happened, something he didn't know.
It should be a good thing, otherwise, why was the food so good today?
"Today I made an appointment with a villager to fish in the reservoir. Do you want to go together?"
"Reservoir? Freshwater reservoir?"
"Yes, always eating sea fish, my mouth is a bit picky, I want to eat some freshwater fish."
"Okay, together, I'm staying in the room anyway."
"I'm going too, I'll go back and change into a thick coat later."
"Old Lu, bring a bottle of the fruit wine Manman made. In case it's cold, we can each have a sip, warm in the stomach."
"Go, go, your wishful thinking is really loud."
"The words are rough but the meaning is not rough. Old Lu, bring a bottle. I'll bring a grill, and we can fish on the spot and grill fish to eat, how about it?"
"I'll consider it."
Old Man Lu licked the corners of his lips. What's going on? He's old, why can't he control his stomach?
