Chapter 281: Perhaps, he should go and meet his former doll-marriage object

~7 min read 1,398 words

Anyone who has children knows that children usually sleep for an hour or two.

When they wake up, they wail; eight out of ten times, it's because they've wet or soiled themselves, or their bodies are uncomfortable.

When the grandfathers usually watch TV, they will lower the volume, and there are many who get sleepy after lunch.

Individual energetic ones, when the little ones wake up, take shifts; in general, the little ones are the seasoning in their retired life.

They can't be without them, but if they have them, they can't be too tired.

Still the same sentence, the more people, the better.

A group of old friends stayed until evening, and the lively little courtyard suddenly became quiet.

After Elder Lu changed the diapers for his two great-grandchildren, he told Old Pei to watch the children, and he went to the kitchen to make dinner.

What to eat?

Noodles, a stir-fried green vegetable, and a spicy shrimp.

It was just a few of them eating, so no need to make many dishes.

Otherwise, in this weather, leftovers would go sour, and eating them would be bad for the body.

Don't talk to him about "remembering bitterness and thinking of sweetness"; what bitterness hadn't he eaten back then? Why couldn't he eat leftovers now?

He couldn't make it clear to this kind of stubborn old thinking. In short, when cooking, do it in moderation; don't always cook too much, and then it gets moldy, sour, smelly, and grows hair—that can't be eaten, it's not a joke!

Mold, yes, it's this mold.

His granddaughter said that this mold is very dangerous; eating it will make the stomach unable to bear it, and in severe cases, the blood in the blood vessels won't be diluted, and you will get some kind of acute gastroenteritis, sepsis, and other diseases.

Better to believe it exists than to believe it doesn't.

He was old and cherished his life.

He still wanted to accompany the great-grandchildren for a few more years and wanted to use his eyes to see the country develop and become stronger.

In short, one must listen to advice.

"Beep beep beep."

Didn't expect that at this point, Brother Duan would come in person.

"Old Brother Lu, I have a telegram for you, urgent. I was on the way, so I sent it over. You read it first; I'll go hold Xiao Mantou and Xiao Nuomi."

Division Commander Duan came in with two cans of milk powder, not too polite, and after handing the telegram and letter to Old Brother Lu, he went to the room to hold his grandson and granddaughter with a smiling face.

Now he had motivation for everything he did, and whenever he had time, he wanted to hold the children.

When the children were a little older, he would hold them to the training ground to see shooting training and demolition scenes to practice the children's courage.

"Who else would send me a telegram?"

It wouldn't be that unfilial son, right?

Elder Lu resisted the urge to tear up the telegram and patiently opened it to read.

Good heavens, he didn't know until he looked, and when he looked, his heart skipped a beat—

Old Gu was gone!

This old friend, apart from being a bit utilitarian, didn't have any major conflicts with him.

The letter contained the content of the obituary; Old Gu's funeral was simple, leaving him only one sentence: "Resentment and grievances are both gone, hope brother takes care."

Elder Lu didn't have much culture, but after seeing this sentence, it was a lie to say he wasn't moved.

There weren't many brothers left who survived the battlefield.

One less, sigh.

The two families wouldn't have reached this point, but, heaven plays tricks on people.

As the other party said, the grievances between the Lu and Gu families were gone; neither owed the other.

Old friends are scattered, hope you have a safe journey...

Northeast—

Gu family old house.

After Gu Tingchen returned from the ancestral grave, he locked himself in the old house for the whole afternoon.

Grandfather was gone, like a bolt from the blue.

He still thought, wait until the child was born, pick up Grandfather home, and enjoy his old age.

Didn't expect that the farewell at the train station was the last time.

Grandfather, really, was gone.

At that moment, his spiritual pillar collapsed.

As he asked for leave to go home for the funeral and handle Grandfather's affairs, he learned from his uncles how much Grandfather had done in secret to lift him up over the years...

Precisely because of this, his heart was so painful!

Grandfather was the best person to him in this world!

He, didn't have a grandfather anymore.

From now on, the Gu family could only rely on him to take over the role of the guiding light.

From now on, no one would lift him up without asking for a return.

From now on, when encountering major events, no one would guide him.

From now on, really, he could only rely on himself.

Grandfather...

"Tingchen, your marriage, we have all heard about the situation, but no matter what, the Lu family cannot be offended to death."

"That's right, Tingchen, your second aunt and I were tidying up your grandfather's relics and saw a jade pendant. If I remember correctly, this jade pendant was the token exchanged when you were engaged to the Lu family when you were young."

"Since you can't offend them to death, it's better to repair the relationship. After your grandfather's funeral is over, you go to the Sea Island and return this jade pendant to Elder Lu."

"Good child, don't be stubborn. Elder Lu is a nostalgic person. I think the old man put the jade pendant in a prominent place because he had this thought. Don't let down your grandfather's last calculation for you..."

Outside the room, after the two elders finished speaking, they put the food tray at the door, looked at each other, sighed, and turned to leave.

After a long time, the door was pushed open.

Gu Tingchen saw the food tray on the ground, then looked at the jade-white jade pendant, and his inner reason overcame his inner disdain.

Perhaps, he should go and meet his former doll-marriage object.

"Achoo—"

Shen Man came home from work, and when she was washing her hands, she suddenly sneezed.

But it didn't matter, continue washing hands.

Don't know if it was a professional habit, but when she washed her hands, she would use soap twice, until there was no smell of disinfectant in her palms.

Actually, the smell of disinfectant was fine, but if it was the smell of formalin from anatomy class, that was...

Secretly tell you, once the smell of corpse rot is stained, it will take many days to dissipate!

That was a smell that perfume and the like couldn't remove.

Don't ask her why she knows; actually, her senior sister is a forensic doctor!

Those who know, know!

In the past, her parents arranged for her to go on blind dates several times, but when she talked about her profession, the other party frowned and asked if she often dealt with corpses.

Although she didn't, she couldn't stand the "down-to-earth" men, so she nodded with difficulty and answered yes, she often had to deal with corpses.

Just like that, the blind date object would knock over coffee or something, pretending to be calm, but actually sweating profusely, and soon proposed excuses like the house was on fire, parents had a car accident, etc., to escape...

Actually, medical students aren't as glamorous as the outside world feels.

Learning requires many years of textbook knowledge + practical experience, moving for three or five years, five or six years of further study, learning.

When busy, where is there time to talk about a partner?

Oh no, it should be said, where can you get in touch with a partner?

Not to mention this era, just say the era she was in before, technology was advanced, but medical students were already a watershed when choosing academic qualifications and professional courses.

Some majors are destined to be easy to employ, with a bright future.

Some majors are destined to be difficult to employ, unpopular.

Sigh, thought too far, wipe hands, eat dinner. ===== CHAPTER 282 =====
