Chapter 299. Care
Old Wang only had dry coughs these days.
However, Lin Qing He took precaution. She got Zhou Kai to go to old Wang's place and sleep with his god-grandfather.
Although it was only a single room, it was fine for Zhou Kai to camp on the floor. There were enough quilts and blankets brought over, so it wasn't cold.
Old Wang said there was no need. It was just a small cold. What need was there?
But Lin Qing He insisted. Zhou Kai also expressed he wants to guard.
Well, that very night, at about eleven o'clock, old Wang began burning up.
The old man almost burnt silly. Thankfully, Zhou Kai was keen. Hearing his voice, he immediately got up. With a check, his forehead was so hot.
He helped the old man get up and drank water. While at it, he grabbed the medicine his mother left behind. Then he bundled his god-grandfather in warm clothes, covered him with a quilt, and went straight to the hospital.
At this time, the benefits of this kid's size were displayed.
All the way he carried his god-grandfather on his back to the hospital. He was only slightly panting. The doctor couldn't help compliment his good physical fitness.
Then he(the doctor) checked old Wang and put him on an IV drip.
After hearing that the fever medicine was fed, he didn't continue with the medicine. After all, the elderly's situation was fairly stable.
Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai didn't know. It was only the next morning when Zhou Kai came over to ask to make pork ribs and lotus seed congee did they find out.
Zhou Qing Bai went to cooked pork ribs and lotus seed congee, so he went to open a shop first. Zhou Kai brought Zhou Xuan and Zhou Gui Lai over. Of course, Lin Qing He was with them. They came to see old Wang.
Old Wang's whole spirit was sluggish, but he was obviously happy.
"Quickly go have your class. There is nothing wrong with me. The fever is gone now. I can go back but Xiao Kai told me to see the situation first." Old Wang said with a smile.
"You can't just go back like this. Need to observe a bit." Lin Qing He urged.
Then she let him eat breakfast.
The family chatted with old Wang for a while. They waited for old Wang to finish eating, and then packed up their things and went back.
No choice. Those who go to school have to go to school, and those who give class have to give class.
"Is that your daughter or daughter-in-law?" asked a patient next to him.
"My daughter-in-law and my three grandchildren." Old Wang smilingly answered.
"Then you are really blessed. Your eldest grandson is really promising. He carried you over last night." The patient said.
"Even though he is a bit tall, he is only sixteen years old." Old Wang smiled: "This kid is a filial child. I said yesterday that I don't need him to sleep with me, but he insisted on staying with me. His parents let him keep watch. Now thinking of this, I feel scared."
"When old, you have to admit you're old. Don't overexert. Fortunately, you arrived on time last night. If not, afraid you won't get better soon." responded this patient.
"That's true. I must acknowledge I'm old in the future." Old Wang nodded and said: "But I am much better now, what need is there to stay in the hospital any longer?"
"Just stay, the children will be reassured," coaxed this patient.
The old saying was right, sickness comes like a mountain and goes like a thread. But that's because Zhou Kai sent him to the hospital in time last night and the cold medicine was also fed in time. So his spirit wasn't too bad today.
Although old Wand hadn't expended much energy, he can't stand the smell of disinfection from the hospital.
Zhou Kai had two classes this morning. After finishing the class, he came over. Old Wang spoke, "Let's pack up. We're not staying in the hospital."
"Grandfather, stay here first. I'll go ask the doctor and discuss it." Zhou Kai refused to listen to him. He poured him a glass of warm water and said.
He went to the doctor. The doctor said that it was indeed possible to not stay in the hospital, so Zhou Kai came back and said, "Then I will take you back."
Old Wang nodded. Then they went back to his single dormitory.
After Zhou Kai got him to lie down on the bed, he bought some apples and slice the apple for his god-grandfather. He said, "Grandfather, what do you want to eat this afternoon?"
"My appetite is a little weak. There is nothing I want to eat." Old Wang said while eating an apple.
"Nothing you want to eat. Then let's have celery and pork dumplings." Zhou Kai said.
"Alright. Go over at noon and bring me a portion." Old Wang nodded.
"Last night, you had scared me. You know, you were completely burning up. My mother's medicine is really effective. From here to the hospital, the fever had gone down a lot." Zhou Kai told.
"Where did your mother buy that medicine?" Old Wang also thought it was effective.
"I don't know. She said she bought it in the south." Zhou Kai replied, "Grandfather, would you like to have another one?"
"Not having. I will sleep." Old Wang still felt weak and answered.
Zhou Kai nodded. He didn't leave either. He stayed at the side to keep guard and grabbed a book to read.
Lin Qing He came over after class finished and took a look. Seeing that they really came back, she felt more relieved. Being able to leave the hospital indicated that the situation was stable.
Zhou Kai came out stealthily.
"How's your god-grandfather?" Lin Qing He asked.
"The situation is very stable. There is no problem." Zhou Kai replied.
Lin Qing He said, "Got any classes in the afternoon?"
"There is one important class. It doesn't matter if I don't attend the others." Zhou Kai said.
"Then go to the important class. You don't need to go to the others. Study the book yourself. Your god-grandfather needs someone to keep an eye on him," Lin Qing He said.
In fact, it can be arranged for old Wang to go to the second floor of the dumpling shop. But the dumpling shop had people coming and going. Some people like to joke and laugh when they eat dumplings. There was no door to the second floor, so it was quite noisy.
So he was recuperating here.
Zhou Kai agreed.
Old Wang had been sick for five days. It was until the sixth day when old Wang got up this morning and his whole state was different. He was completely healed.
"Grandfather, why did you get up so early?" Zhou Kai, who was still camping on the ground, came back from jogging and saw he was awake.
He was already preparing to enter the military academy next year. He had long started getting up early to do physical training exercises like running.
"My old bones are healed. They will rust if I keep lying down." Old Wang replied in a happy mood.
"Then go to the shop for breakfast?" Zhou Kai said.
"Let's go." Old Wang nodded.
One old and one young came over to the dumpling shop for breakfast. Lin Qing He likes to sleep in during the winter. The two younger ones were the same. They haven't come yet. After all, it was only 6:40. The three of them arrived almost at seven.
However, Zhou Qing Bai was already busy since six.
This taciturn man always carried his family responsibilities silently without complaining.
Today, he cooked lily bulb, lotus seed, and rib congee. This was naturally under his wife's order. It was accompanied by a dish of pickled garlic and salted duck eggs. It was a very refreshing accompanient.
"Oh, old Wang, you're better?"
Auntie Ma hadn't started work yet. She just bought some groceries and was about to go home. When she passed by, she saw old Wang stretching his waist outside after breakfast. She immediately broke into a grin.
