Chapter 484: Give Me Your Granddaughter!
Gu Qingyao examined Lin Wanyin and realized that her outlook was poor.
The old lady had not taken care of herself, and together with her long period of depression, she had aged terribly. Her teacher had already spoken conservatively. Actually, without better living conditions, the old lady might not even have that much time.
At the moment, her main problems were psychological.
Gu Qingyao felt that if this old lady’s psychological issues were not resolved, even if she took good care of her, gave her plenty of food, and nursed her with high quality herbs and the water from her medicinal spring, she couldn’t extend her life by much.
Gu Chonghua and Jiang Yiru were both there to attend to Old Master Guo and Lin Wanyin’s injuries, so Gu Qingyao said, “Grandfather, I’ll go make some food for Grandma Guo and also bring some medicine.”
Gu Chonghua nodded. “Go ahead! Oh, and ask your grandmother to come over. Tell her an old friend is here, and ask her to come and take a look.”
“Okay!”
When Gu Qingyao got home, Wen Ruyu was there, sewing. She was shocked when Gu Qingyao told her what had happened!
“You... what did you say? The new arrival is called Lin Wanyin?”
Gu Qingyao nodded. “That’s right. Grandfather says you used to know each other, so he asked you to go over and take a look.”
When Wen Ruyu heard that, she was stunned for a long moment. Then she snapped out of her trance, flung down what she was holding, and headed for the straw shed at a run.
Gu Qingyao was somewhat surprised. It looked like Grandma really did know Grandfather Guo.
She recalled that when she had first met Grandfather Guo at the black market, and found out that he was from Shanghai, she had thought that he might know her grandmother!
She was surprised to discover that they really did know each other.
Gu Qingyao cooked some porridge at home, then brewed a bowl of medicine and brought it over.
When she arrived, the old folks in the straw shed were resting. They had lit a fire in the middle, so it was not cold. Grandfather Guo, Grandma Guo, and her own grandparents were in a corner.
Everyone must have found out that they were old friends, so they had given them space to catch up.
Grandma Guo was still unconscious.
Gu Qingyao went over and saw that her grandmother’s eyes were still a little red.
“Grandma!”
Wen Ruyu hurriedly helped Lin Wanyin up. “Hurry, give her something to eat. She doesn’t look well!”
Gu Qingyao fed the old folks some porridge. Although the old woman was still unconscious, fortunately she could still swallow when she smelt the fragrance of the food. She drank half of a small bowl of porridge and, after a while, a bowl of medicine.
Old Master Guo leaned over. “Wife! Wake up! You have to survive if you want to see our son! You...”
“All right, all right. She’s so badly injured, you should let her rest! Look at yourself. If you aren’t careful, you might die too.”
Old Master Guo did not know what to say.
When Gu Qingyao looked at him, she had a strange feeling that Grandfather Guo seemed a little afraid of Grandma!
Gu Qingyao said, “Grandfather Guo, don’t worry. Grandma Guo has only fainted. Let her have a good rest, and she will regain consciousness tomorrow. I’ve already fed her some medicine, so she will be fine.”
Old Master Guo looked at Gu Qingyao, then looked at Wen Ruyu. “This is your granddaughter! Your granddaughter is my granddaughter. I will obey my granddaughter!”
Gu Qingyao was shocked!
Gu Chonghua was infuriated. “You old fool, this is my granddaughter. What does she have to do with you?”
Old Master Guo looked at Gu Qingyao and said to Gu Chonghua, “Why are you so petty? Ruyu and I were childhood sweethearts, and she was once my fiancée! Of course her granddaughter is my granddaughter.
“Wanyin especially likes young girls. Our children are no longer with us, but you have so many children and grandchildren. Can’t you give us a granddaughter?”
