Chapter 129 Grandpa is Sick
Mother Lu gestured for Lu Youning to come over and sit down, as if she had something to say to her.
Lu Youning felt a little depressed and suddenly had a bad premonition.
She walked over slowly and sat down on the sofa obediently.
Mother Lu sighed softly and said, "Your grandfather had a sudden heart attack some time ago. We have been staying in the hospital, busy running around, and haven't been able to take care of our family or get enough rest."
As Mother Lu spoke, her eyes became slightly red and her voice was choked with sobs.
When Lu Youning heard this, her heart skipped a beat. She asked anxiously, "How is Grandpa now? Why did he become like this all of a sudden? He was in good health before."
Father Lu took over the conversation, patted Lu Youning on the shoulder, and said in a heavy tone:
"Your grandfather is old and has some health issues. His condition was quite critical at the time, but fortunately he was sent to the hospital in time. He is finally out of danger now, but he will have to stay in the hospital for a while.
We've been terrified these past few days, and our hearts are in our throats. We just hope your grandpa gets better soon."
Lu Youning said with a hint of complaint in her tone: "Why didn't you tell me? Have you been hiding it from me if I didn't come back?" As she spoke, her eyes became moist.
Mother Lu took Lu Youning's hand, patted it gently and explained, "The situation was urgent at the time, and we were all focused on your grandfather's condition, hoping that he would survive the danger safely.
Later, your grandmother said that since your grandfather was out of danger, considering that you were studying in Beijing, she was afraid that it would affect your studies, and she specifically asked us not to disturb you, so she didn't tell you right away.
Lu Youning wiped the corners of her eyes and said in a tearful voice, "Mom, I want to go to the hospital to see Grandpa."
Mother Lu patted her daughter's head and said, "Okay, wait a moment. The soup I made for your grandfather isn't ready yet. Let's go together when it's done, okay?"
Lu Youning nodded, replied with an "yes", and sat on the sofa without saying a word.
The soup was ready soon. Mother Lu poured the soup into a thermos and fried some light dishes to take over.
When they arrived at the hospital, Lu Youning quietly pushed open the door of the ward and greeted his uncle.
Seeing her grandfather lying on the hospital bed, his face slightly pale and the whole person looking much thinner, her eyes suddenly reddened again. She held back her tears, walked to the bedside, and called softly, "Grandpa, I'm here to see you."
Grandpa heard the voice and slowly opened his eyes. Seeing that it was Lu Youning, a smile immediately appeared on his face. He weakly reached out his hand to hold Lu Youning and said, "Oh, my dear granddaughter, why are you back? Grandpa missed you so much."
Lu Youning held her grandfather's hand, tears welling up in her eyes as she choked and said, "Grandpa, I'm on vacation. Why didn't you tell me you were sick? If I had known earlier, I would have come to accompany you sooner."
Grandpa patted Lu Youning's hand gently and said with a smile, "Silly child, Grandpa has your uncle and your father to take care of him. As people get older, they have more problems. It's okay. Now that I see you, Grandpa feels more than half better."
The uncle also said, "Yes, Youning, we will take good care of your grandfather. It's been hard for you to get into such a good university, study hard."
Lu Youning quickly wiped her tears, served the soup and said, "I will, uncle."
"Grandpa, are you hungry? I brought some soup. Drink more so you can get better faster."
Grandpa smiled and said, "Okay, Grandpa will listen to Youning."
Lu Youning carefully held the bowl of soup, picked up the spoon, stirred it gently, blew on it, and then handed it to his grandfather's mouth and said, "Grandpa, please drink slowly, it's a little hot."
Grandpa opened his mouth obediently and drank the soup slowly. With each sip, the smile on his face grew wider, and he didn't forget to praise: "Well, this soup tastes really good."
Grandpa drank half a bowl of soup and ate some rice, then said he was full.
Lu Youning had no choice. Her appetite was not very good after the operation, so she stopped feeding the baby.
Turning to talk to his grandfather about things in college, Lu Youning excitedly talked about the interesting clubs on campus.
"Grandpa, you don't know that there are many strange clubs in school, such as the Game Club and the Wake-up Club, which are very interesting.
I joined our school's calligraphy and painting association, and the students there have beautiful handwriting. Of course, your granddaughter's handwriting is not bad either."
Grandpa listened with gusto, his smile deepening the wrinkles on his face as he said, "Our Youning's calligraphy is indeed good, but you can't be proud. You must learn with an open mind, okay?"
Lu Youning nodded obediently and said, "Grandpa, I know. I will learn from you with an open mind."
Grandpa nodded with satisfaction, but accidentally choked and started coughing violently, then a look of fatigue appeared on his face.
Lu Youning quickly helped to smooth his back and said, "Grandpa, you should have a good rest first. I have several days off. Let's talk tomorrow."
Grandpa took his time and said weakly, "Okay, Grandpa will listen to you. You should go back and rest too. You must be tired after just coming back."
Lu Youning helped Grandpa lie down, covered him with a blanket, and said softly, "Grandpa, I'll come see you tomorrow."
After saying hello to Grandpa, Lu's father and mother took Lu Youning home.
Lu Youning walked out of the ward, feeling a little depressed.
Father Lu looked at his daughter, rubbed her head, and comforted her: "Ningning, your grandfather will get better slowly, don't worry too much."
Lu Youning nodded and asked, "Dad, when does the doctor say Grandpa can be discharged from the hospital?"
Father Lu thought for a moment and said, "It will probably take another week. The details will depend on how the body recovers."
……
On this side, after Ruan Fuxi sent Lu Youning home, he also went home, went straight to his room, turned on the computer and started programming.
He just had a little inspiration on the plane and he had to give it a try.
At the dinner table, Ruan's mother was concerned about her son's life at school. "Are you adapting well in college? How's the food?"
Ruan Fuxi replied while eating, "It's good. The food in the cafeteria is also delicious."
Mother Ruan nodded and asked curiously, "Did you come back with Youning?"
As soon as Ruan Fuxi heard it, he knew what Ruan's mother was going to ask next, and replied with a faint "hmm".
Mother Ruan asked unwillingly, "How's it going? Did you catch the guy?"
Ruan Fuxi suddenly remembered what Lu Youning had mentioned before, that she didn't want to tell her parents about their relationship too early, and she quickly said, "Mom, don't worry about it. I know what's going on."
After hearing what her son said, Mother Ruan frowned and said, "You haven't confessed your feelings to her yet, have you? If you don't confess quickly and wait for Youning to be pursued by someone else, I wonder what you'll do!"
Ruan Fuxi didn't reply to Ruan's mother's words. He glanced at his phone from time to time, for fear of missing any news from Lu Youning.
Mother Ruan looked at her troubled son and said helplessly, "Okay, I won't say anything."
Father Ruan said, "Okay, let's eat first. My son has grown up now and can handle his own affairs."
At eight o'clock in the evening, Ruan Fuxi returned to his room to wash off his fatigue, opened his mobile phone again and looked at it. It was still quiet.
