The villain is too crazy, the little ancestor is not going to do it anymore
Chapter 272 The illness comes like a mountain
It is really true that illness can be as devastating as a mountain falling on you.
No matter how lively a person is on a normal day, once he falls ill, he is like a punctured balloon. He instantly loses all his energy and becomes completely listless.
Gu Ranle was slumped on the bed at this moment, her eyelids felt heavy as if they were pressed by a huge rock. Just as she struggled to open them, they closed uncontrollably again.
"Eat something before going to sleep, or you won't have the energy."
Gu Jiu said softly that he specially made salty porridge with a light taste, and it was now at just the right temperature.
She carefully helped Gu Ranle up, let her lean against the head of the bed, then scooped a spoonful of porridge and brought it to her mouth.
"Master, I'm thirsty..." Gu Ranle's throat was so dry that it felt like it could spit out fire. She just wanted to drink water.
Gu Jiu quickly put down the bowl, poured half a cup of warm water, and added some salt.
But for Gu Ranle, this little bit of water was just a drop in the bucket and could not quench his thirst at all.
"Eat less porridge first, and then drink water after you finish eating." Gu Jiu advised.
Gu Ranle really had no appetite, but she didn't want to make her grandfather worry, so she had to bite the bullet and force herself to eat half a bowl.
But after eating the porridge, her stomach felt like it was churning and she felt so uncomfortable that she wanted to vomit.
But she still held back, not wanting her grandfather to notice anything unusual.
So she made an excuse, saying that she wanted to eat something sour and refreshing, and sent her grandfather away.
As soon as Gu Jiu left, Gu Ranle couldn't bear it any longer. She turned over and got out of bed, staggering to the bathroom.
Once she got to the bathroom, she laid down on the toilet and vomited so hard that it felt like she was going to vomit up jaundice.
The discomfort was like countless little hands scratching at my stomach, or like someone was hitting my head with a hammer.
She vomited so much that tears came out, and she was so exhausted that she almost collapsed on the ground.
This illness came on suddenly and violently, torturing a person who was usually full of energy into unbearable pain.
Worried that her grandfather would come up and see her, Gu Ranle sat on the ground for a while to relax.
Then, she gritted her teeth, forced herself to get up, flushed the toilet clean, rinsed her mouth, and then dragged her weak body back to bed.
Not long after, Gu Jiu came back.
He looked at his granddaughter who was sleeping again in bed and sighed softly.
Gu Jiu put the cold cucumber salad on the table and sat down beside the bed with a serious expression.
He has been practicing medicine for most of his life and has seen countless difficult and complicated cases, but now he can't even cure his granddaughter's simple fever.
For the first time in his life, he began to doubt himself.
He felt that he had failed in his duty as a grandfather and was filled with self-blame and sadness.
He sat there with a frown on his face, looking extremely haggard.
Finally, Gu Jiu couldn't bear it anymore and picked up his phone to call his master.
To him, the Master is like a safe haven in the storm, his eternal support, and his backbone.
As soon as the call was connected, before Gu Jiu could say anything, the master on the other end seemed to have the ability to predict the future and had already seen through everything.
The master said in his usual calm tone, "Old Nine, you are already old. You have experienced many ups and downs. Why did you panic and lose your composure over such a small matter? Don't worry, the girl will be fine. But you should not doubt yourself because of this. This is her calamity, and even more so yours. Especially at times like this, you must stabilize your body and mind and not lose your composure."
Gu Jiu listened to his master's words quietly, and his heart gradually calmed down.
He chatted with his master for a few more words and then ended the call.
After hanging up the phone, Gu Jiu felt much more at ease.
He walked to the bedside, took Gu Ranle's pulse and gave her acupuncture again. After careful consideration, he changed the prescription.
Then he went downstairs to boil the medicine.
Li Xiuneng had been sent away by his men long ago. He was already very upset, and when he saw Li Xiuneng, he couldn't help but lose his temper.
In fact, he also knew that he shouldn't do this.
But people are sometimes so strange. When they get emotional, they can't control themselves.
In the past, his granddaughter had no boyfriend and didn’t like to socialize. She stayed at home all day. He was very worried about her and urged her to go out and meet more people every day.
But now that she has someone she likes, he starts to dislike that person and always feels that Li Xiu is not worthy of his granddaughter.
He despised himself a little. He was already old, but how could he be so ignorant of life?
He scolded himself harshly in his heart, then picked up his phone and called Li Xiuneng, asking him to pack some clothes.
He has to take care of Gu Ranle these days and doesn't have time to run back and forth to treat him.
Li Xiu was naturally very happy to receive the call.
He immediately asked Li Jiashu to pack his things, not wanting to stay in his home for even a second.
He instructed Li Jiashu to pack two large suitcases full of clothes for him.
Li Jiashu looked at the pile of clothes and asked in confusion, "Old Four, you're just staying there for a few days. Maybe you'll be back tomorrow when Doctor Gu recovers. Why are you packing so many clothes?"
Li Xiuneng did not explain and said directly: "You don't understand. If I tell you to clean up, just clean up quickly."
He felt so happy in his heart. He finally got this legitimate opportunity to live in Gu's family. He couldn't let this opportunity go easily.
Since I'm going to be a live-in son-in-law sooner or later, it's better to live in the house earlier than later. Maybe I can develop more feelings with Old Man Gu.
After packing his clothes, Li Xiuneng hurriedly urged Li Jiashu to take him to Gu's house.
At this time, Li Minghui came upstairs and said, "It's almost noon, let's eat first."
Li Xiuneng shook his head like a rattle, "No, I'll eat at Gu's house."
He didn't want to waste even a second and wanted to fly to Gu's house and be by Gu Ranle's side immediately.
Li Minghui added, "Old Four, let your third brother go with you to take care of you."
Li Xiuneng was actually a little conflicted. With an extra light bulb, it would definitely be inconvenient for him to get along with Gu Ranle.
But he also knew that he was unable to move around easily and would definitely not be able to do without someone to take care of him.
He thought for a moment and said, "Send me to Gu's house first, and then Third Brother will come back to pack up."
Li Jiashu and Li Minghui looked at each other and shrugged helplessly.
"When did our fourth child become love-brained?" Li Jiashu muttered in a low voice.
"You know what, it's quite cute." Li Minghui said with a smile.
The fourth child, who has been more mature, calm and self-controlled than his peers since childhood, fell ill and became a completely different person after waking up.
Maybe it's because I've been on the brink of life and death that I've become more open-minded about many things.
This, in their view, is a good thing.
As a father and eldest brother, I naturally won’t fall behind.
"Okay, I'll take you there first, and then I'll come back to pack up." Li Jiashu said.
Li Minghui said to Li Jiashu, "I put some gifts in the trunk. Third brother, you should be more diligent in the Gu family."
Li Jiashu patted his chest and said confidently, "Dad, do you need to explain this? Don't worry, I will not embarrass our family."
Li Minghui also instructed: "Give my regards to the old man and Doctor Gu. When Doctor Gu gets better, I will go visit her."
"Let's go." Li Xiuneng urged from the side. He couldn't wait to go to Gu's house.
Li Minghui waved his hand and said with a smile: "Let's go, let's go. My son has grown up and I can't keep him here. I can't keep him here."
Li Jiashu started the car and drove Li Xiuneng to Gu's house.
Along the way, Li Xiuneng was so excited that he hummed a little tune.
