Reborn in the 70s: Pampered by Regiment Commander-Chapter 1282 - 839: Explanation/Arrival 3

Although keeping you safe is important, we can’t let you become an outcast in everyone’s eyes. Don’t worry, Grandma is not old-fashioned.

Even if I really go to school and bump into you, Grandma will definitely pretend not to know you. Maybe I could even gather some valuable information for you." The old lady said, glancing at her grandson, "Xiaomi, you’ll have to reward Grandma then."

Zhou Mikang readily agreed: "Okay, whatever reward Grandma wants, I’ll definitely make it happen."

"Alright, I’ll have to think about this... " The old lady looked at her grandson seriously, "You can’t fool me, this is Grandma’s first job in many years."

"Of course." Zhou Mikang nodded, "I wouldn’t dare to fool you. Speaking of which..." He looked at Chuxia, "Grandpa and the others can arrive at the central hospital by noon, after class, hurry back so we can go to the hospital together."

Chuxia responded with great surprise and asked: "Did you visit Grandpa yesterday? Is he really okay now?"

"Before I came, I visited the hospital. The old man is recovering very well, otherwise, he wouldn’t have dared to travel all the way here. The experts also said that in terms of recovery conditions, the central hospital in Capital City is the best. It’s at least three months faster in progress compared to over there.

Looking at Grandpa’s current condition, recovering completely in a year is absolutely no problem. When I visited yesterday, he could already speak slowly.

When I called earlier, he couldn’t even complete a sentence. Even the chief physician said this is nothing short of a miracle. Grandpa said himself that he was afraid his granddaughter would laugh at him for stuttering, so he desperately wanted to recover quickly." Zhou Mikang couldn’t help but laugh as he said this. It was something the old man had told him himself, and he had been quite serious about it at the time.

"That’s really wonderful." Old Madam Zhou sighed with relief, "All this time we’ve been on edge. Over the phone, they say he’s recovering well, but without seeing it, no one can truly feel at ease.

And looking at how worried Chuxia was, we couldn’t show it. We could only comfort her with all our might, and comfort ourselves too. Now that he can be transferred to another hospital, it really means there’s nothing to worry about anymore. Chuxia, now you can finally let go of your worries, right?"

"Yes." Chuxia nodded vigorously, feeling all the strength return to her body. Unknowingly, she had fully integrated into this era, into the family relationships here...

...

In just a short month, Old Master Zhao had lost five or six pounds, and his cheeks looked slightly sunken. When Chuxia and the others arrived at the hospital with Zhou Mikang, the old man was asleep. Sitting by the bedside, looking at the clearly frail old man, she couldn’t hold back her tears.

Zhao Yulan sympathetically embraced her daughter, softly comforting, "Chuxia, Grandpa is fine now, don’t cry."

"I know, it’s just that Grandpa has lost so much weight... " Chuxia gently sniffled, "Grandpa always loved when people said he was getting chubbier. He must be feeling particularly down now."

"Anyway, Grandpa will be staying in the Capital City for a while. Mom will cook delicious food for him every day. He’ll gain it back in no time, don’t worry."

"Chuxia, are you scared?" Old Master Zhao opened his eyes and smiled warmly at his granddaughter, "Silly girl, being able to hang on to my life is already something to be happy about. Why would I feel bad about losing a few pounds? That would have truly been a wasted trip to the gates of hell."

"Grandpa, you weren’t asleep just now?" Chuxia grabbed the arm that wasn’t hooked up to an IV with a mock reproach, "You’re so naughty, knowing I’m worried about you, pretending to sleep when you saw me come in."

"Now you’re really accusing me wrongly..." the old man weakly chuckled, "I was really asleep then. When you all came in, I was still trying to determine if I was dreaming or awake. It took me a moment to realize you all were really here." 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

"Alright, it’s my fault. I shouldn’t have accused Grandpa... " Chuxia looked at the old man with genuine concern, "Grandpa, is there anything that’s still bothering you right now?"

"No, I feel just fine... " the old man smiled helplessly, "I just can’t move, can’t get out of bed. That’s the most bothersome thing."

"With so many people crowding in here, are you deliberately ensuring the patient stays in bed?" With a reprimanding voice, an old doctor with gray hair entered, furrowing his brows tightly, "Leave two people here, and the rest should go outside!"

"Yes, yes, yes, we’re leaving right away, we’re leaving immediately..." Lin Baohe responded as he embarrassedly nodded at Old Madam Zhou, Lin Yanqiu, Old Master Wan, and the others, "Auntie, in-laws, let’s wait outside. Let the two kids stay with the old man for a while. These days, he’s been thinking about them a lot."
