Chapter 243: If medicine can't find the problem, then look at metaphysics!
After Lu Xiu Bai learned of his grandfather's heroic deeds, his first reaction was that he couldn't tell his sister, fearing it would stimulate her.
He whispered sneakily to his brother-in-law, then rode his bike to the cadre rest home to visit his grandfather.
However, paper couldn't wrap up fire, especially since the parents of the children who were saved went to the cadre rest home with great fanfare the next day to express their gratitude, and the matter spread.
The military wives in the Jiashuyuan were all discussing that Comrade Shen Man's grandfather was truly a sharp blade that hadn't aged; even though he was old, he was still not to be outdone!
A good person!
Disregarding life and death, together with another old comrade, he saved six children!
After Shen Man found out, she didn't know whether to say her grandfather was bold or to praise the old man for being thick-skinned.
She didn't say anything, plunged into the kitchen, and used Spiritual Liquid to boil ginger soup for her grandfather.
Boiled in an earthenware pot, Grandpa Lin could also get a share.
Lu Xiu Bai leaned against the kitchen door, peeking through the crack, and asked cautiously:
"Sister, are you angry?"
"Which eye do you see me angry with?"
Shen Man's expression was calm; there was no sign of anger at all.
But those who knew her knew that when she was like this, she was angry.
"You're clearly angry. When I see Grandfather later, I'll definitely teach him a harsh lesson!"
Lu Xiu Bai took out a smooth, polished stone from his pocket and gestured a few times.
With a "crack," the stone shattered!
This time, no gems were revealed inside, just ordinary pebbles.
"Brother, if you're idle, you can take the quilts out to sun them."
Shen Man glanced sideways at her foolish brother; it was another day of feeling sorry for her sister-in-law.
Like a big boy, he didn't say or do anything, never taking the initiative to do anything.
It was rare for him to take the initiative once, and he could still anger people to death.
Sigh.
"That makes sense!"
Lu Xiu Bai threw away the broken stones in his hand, clapped the dust off his palms, and obediently went home to fetch the quilts to sun.
Oh right, his wife said the quilts were a bit damp; sunning them would make them fluffier.
Although the winter on the island wasn't as cold as in the Capital, there was still a temperature difference between day and night.
One still had to cover with a thin quilt at night, otherwise, his wife's sleeping posture wasn't good, and she would easily kick the quilt off, which wouldn't be good if she caught a cold.
"Brother-in-law, what delicious thing are you carrying in your hand?"
Just after sunning the clothes, he saw his brother-in-law carrying things home.
His first reaction was to lean over to see what delicious food there was.
"Pork ribs and radish, raw."
Jiang Ye raised the basket in his hand, letting his brother-in-law see for himself.
He had used grain coupons to trade with the villagers for this.
Not much, just two pork ribs and one radish.
If he hadn't said it was to nourish his pregnant wife, that old man wouldn't have been willing to trade.
Anyway, after stewing it, it could only be eaten by his wife and sister-in-law; his brother-in-law shouldn't even think about it.
Lu Xiu Bai wilted visibly, still muttering to himself:
"I want to eat steamed pork with rice flour, and I also want to eat lion's head meatballs, roast duck."
Every time he mentioned a dish, his saliva would automatically secrete.
"Dream on, everything is in your dreams."
Jiang Ye dropped a few words and turned into the kitchen.
He smelled a pungent scent. What was his wife boiling?
"Ginger soup?"
"Mm, Grandfather and Grandpa Lin yesterday..."
Shen Man only hoped that it wasn't too late to mend the fold after the sheep had been lost.
Ginger soup with Spiritual Liquid could help.
Grandfather was old, and Grandpa Lin was too; it was better to be meticulous in nourishing their bodies.
"I see."
No wonder, on the way home, some people were hesitant to speak, seemingly all with admiring eyes.
At the time, he even thought, he hadn't done anything admirable recently.
So, it was Grandfather who had done a good deed!
"I'll watch the heat for the ginger soup. You sit down and rest first. Be careful of foot swelling and cramps."
"I'm not that—"
Before Shen Man finished speaking, her calf really did cramp.
"What did I say?"
Jiang Ye hurriedly dropped what was in his hand, supported his staggering wife, then picked her up steadily by the waist, and gently placed her on the recliner covered with a military coat in the corridor under the eaves.
"I'm fine, it really doesn't matter."
The young couple was intimate and natural, ignoring everyone else.
Lu Xiu Bai was suddenly shown off, and his heart felt a bit blocked.
His own good cabbage had been arched by a wolf cub.
And it was a brother-in-law he had personally chosen; how could he be so capable!
At the same time, in the Capital Railway Bureau Jiashuyuan, Gu Yinyin hadn't been feeling well lately, and her mother-in-law accompanied her to the unit to handle maternity leave procedures to protect the fetus.
"Yinyin, you stay home and nurture the fetus well. Your father and I can still earn money. We will subsidize you; don't rush to go to work."
"Mm, thank you, Mom. I don't know what's going on, but I've been feeling very uncomfortable for the past two days..."
"Yinyin, don't talk, you have a nosebleed! I'll get you a tissue!"
"Wuwuwu, Mom, my wife is bleeding!"
"Xiong Ying, don't be afraid, it's fine, I'm fine—"
Gu Yinyin had originally wanted to comfort her husband, but suddenly her vision went black, and she fell straight onto the sofa.
Fortunately, the living room sofa was covered with a mattress, so she didn't fall directly to the ground.
"Mom!"
"Oh my, why did Yinyin faint? Xiong Ying, listen to me, pick Yinyin up, let's go, we're going to the hospital!"
"Okay."
Although Liu Xiongying's brain was stuck at the age of eight or nine, fortunately, he had great strength and was obedient.
Concerned about the safety of his closest wife, his strength was surprisingly great at this moment.
The mother and son hurriedly sent Gu Yinyin to the hospital. After a busy while, the doctor didn't diagnose any results.
But Gu Yinyin's nosebleed had stopped, yet she remained in a coma.
Mother Liu was spinning in circles with anxiety, but suddenly thinking of something, she hurriedly called her husband's unit.
Bureau Chief Liu arrived urgently an hour later. The child in his daughter-in-law's belly was the next generation of their Old Liu family, their hope!
There must be no loss!
"Since the hospital can't find anything, should we look for..."
Mother Liu suddenly had a flash of inspiration and thought of a possibility.
A master!
If medicine can't find the problem, then look at metaphysics!
No matter if it's a black cat or a white cat, a cat that can catch mice is a good cat!
"Find one!"
Bureau Chief Liu nodded and agreed with this suggestion.
Spending money was not an issue; his precious grandchild must be safe!
Just like that, Mother Liu used connections to find a master. The other party was dressed tightly, came to the ward, wandered around a few times, and was pinching fingers and calculating...
"Not good, the child in your daughter-in-law's belly is being borrowed for luck!
Think about it, have any strange people sent anything to your house recently?"
If Shen Man were here, she would have to say that this person really had some ability.
They had actually calculated the ins and outs, and it was close enough!
"Borrowing luck? Who dares to borrow my grandchild's luck!"
Bureau Chief Liu was imposing without being angry, his official authority coming over him. Ordinary people would really have weak legs if they saw it.
But the people present were either Liu family members or people who ate this bowl of rice. Afraid?
Not at all.
The more it was this kind of time, the more one had to show the image of a master beyond the vulgar... ===== CHAPTER 244 =====
