Mr. Meng's residence was not very far from Qin Feng's courtyard house. Meng Lin, who got in the car and drove all the way, arrived at his grandfather's residence in less than twenty minutes.
Normally, when Meng Lin came here, he would greet the guard at the door, but today he couldn't care less, nodded and rushed directly into the yard.
"Meng Lin, how old are you, and you still do things in such a panic?"
Mr. Meng, who was decorating flowers and plants in the company of his granddaughter, frowned when he saw the panic on his grandson's face and handed the scissors in his hand to Meng Yao.
Mr. Meng's attitude towards boys and girls is obviously different. He dotes on Meng Yao to the point of doting, but towards the boys in the family, he has always been known for his majesty and rarely praises them.
"Brother, didn't you say you would come over for dinner only in the evening?"
Meng Yao also looked at her brother strangely. In her impression, except when she was injured in the United States, her brother would only show such a panicked and almost helpless look.
"I'm going to see Qin Feng!"
Meng Lin stood firm. The prestige that the old man had built up over so many years could not be easily erased. Meng Lin still had to behave in front of him.
"Ah? Brother, you are not allowed to bully Qin Feng!"
When Meng Yao heard that his brother had gone to see Qin Feng, he didn't care that he was in front of his grandfather, and shouted: "Qin Feng has suffered a lot outside, you... you are not allowed to bully him anymore..."
"Huh? Girl, who is Qin Feng?"
Hearing the conversation between his grandson and granddaughter, Mr. Meng's frown suddenly relaxed. He looked at Meng Yao with a half-smile and said, "They say girls are outgoing, but this granddaughter has a boyfriend and she didn't even tell her grandpa? "
Mr. Meng has always felt guilty about his granddaughter. It was he who gave Meng Yao a baby marriage, which also caused Meng Yao to never show a smile on her face since she became an adult.
Later, the gunshot wound that Meng Yao suffered in the United States was also believed to be the gunman found by Zhou Yichen out of madness. Mr. Meng was furious and felt increasingly guilty. From that moment on, he decided not to interfere with his granddaughter's marriage.
Therefore, Mr. Meng is not unaware of things about Qin Feng, and he also knows the family pressure faced by Qin Feng and Meng Yao.
But the old man had been pretending to be confused and was planning to wait until Meng Yao couldn't hold on anymore and asked him for help before he came forward to agree to the matter between the two of them, but it was just a game.
"Grandpa, he was in danger at sea and was missing for more than a year. Didn't he just come back..."
If anyone in the Meng family was not afraid of the old man, it was certainly Meng Yao. After grabbing his grandfather's arm and shaking it a few times, he immediately made the old man beg for mercy.
"Okay, grandpa, don't ask anymore, stop shaking. Grandpa, with his old arms and legs, can't stand it anymore..."
I was supported by my granddaughter and walked into the wing room. One advantage of living in a courtyard is that it is warm in winter and cool in summer. Even though it is the hottest weather, there is no air conditioning in the room, only an old-fashioned fan is turning.
"Meng Lin, come in and talk. What are you doing standing there in the yard?" Although he usually doesn't have a good expression on his grandchildren, the old man is still in a good mood with his grandchildren around.
Especially hearing his granddaughter admit that she had a boyfriend made the old man feel less guilty, and the wrinkles on his face seemed to have relaxed.
"Grandpa, who is on duty in the health care team today?"
After Meng Lin walked into the room, he said: "I think my sister's complexion is not very good. Please ask a doctor to take a look at her. You see, she is getting thinner every day..."
"It should be Xiao Wu today, right?"
The old man usually refuses to let his own doctors treat his family members, but he loves his granddaughter the most, so making an exception once in a while is nothing.
"Xiao Liu, look who is on duty in the health care team today?" the old man shouted to the yard.
"Chief, are you feeling unwell?" A figure appeared at the door of the wing and asked, "Doctor Wu just came back, do you want to invite him?"
"Please come over, Xiao Wu, to see Yaoyao's illness." Mr. Meng replied.
"Yes, chief..." The man agreed and went to another room to make a phone call.
"Yao Yao, where do you feel uncomfortable?"
After asking someone to call a doctor, the old man looked at his granddaughter with concern. He knew that Meng Yao had been soft on the outside but strong on the inside since she was a child, and would not say anything even if she was sick.
"Grandpa, I'm fine. I just haven't had a good appetite recently and I always feel weak."
Although Meng Yao had seen from Qin Feng's solemn expression that she seemed to be seriously ill, she didn't take it seriously because her symptoms had lasted for a long time.
"You have to eat well, you know!" The old man patted his granddaughter's palm and said with a smile: "If you don't eat well in the future, you will be slapped on the palm, just like you beat Meng Lin."
Mr. Meng did not take his granddaughter's illness too seriously. Although Meng Yao suffered a gunshot wound, the diagnosis when he was finally discharged from the hospital was that he had recovered.
"Chief, what's wrong with you?"
While the grandfather and grandson were talking, a doctor carrying a medicine box walked into the room. However, his medicine box was different from that of Western medicine. It was a rare Chinese medicine box.
And if Qin Feng were here, he would find that this doctor was the old doctor he had just met in the nursing home in the morning.
"Xiao Liu, why didn't you tell Dr. Wu?"
Mr. Meng glanced at his guard reproachfully and said, "Xiao Wu, it's not that I'm not feeling well, but I want you to check Yaoyao's pulse. She doesn't look very good lately."
"Huh? What's wrong with Yaoyao?"
As Dr. Wu spoke, he turned his gaze to Meng Yao. At this glance, his expression suddenly changed and he said, "Yao Yao, go sit down over there and give me your right hand..."
Although Dr. Wu failed to demonstrate his medical skills in front of Qin Feng, he did come from a family of famous doctors, and his level of Chinese medicine was definitely among the top three in the country, so he naturally had the skills to listen, listen and inquire.
When he first saw Meng Yao, Dr. Wu felt something was wrong. Meng Yao's complexion was not only unhealthy, there was a hint of grayness in her complexion, which was a sign of a terminal illness.
"Uncle Wu, am I seriously ill?" Seeing Dr. Wu's solemn look, Meng Yao sat down with some anxiety and stretched out her wrist.
"No, why is the heart pulse injured?" Doctor Wu put his hand and noticed the instability of Meng Yao's veins. Especially the intermittent beating at the heart pulse position made his heart sink.
"Okay, I'll prescribe some Chinese medicine for you, you can take it first..."
After about ten minutes, Dr. Wu put away his hand and said: "Normally, be careful not to be overjoyed or sad. You must keep your mood stable. Nothing else will happen..."
"Uncle Wu, thank you." Meng Yao smiled sweetly. As smart as she was, she could naturally see that Dr. Wu's words were insincere, but she didn't point them out.
Mr. Meng and Meng Lin looked at each other, and when they were about to speak, a female voice came from the yard: "Xiao Lin, Yaoyao, why did you come here so early?"
"Mom, you came quite early!" Seeing the woman coming in from outside, Meng Yao quickly went to greet her and took her arm with a smile.
"Huh? Just in time, you take Yaoyao to the kitchen to have a look, and you can cook some dishes in the evening." Seeing his daughter-in-law coming over, Mr. Meng said: "Don't let Yaoyao work, she is not in good health at this time.
good."
"Okay. Dad, I will make your favorite homemade tofu tonight." Meng Yao's mother agreed with a smile, pointed at her daughter and said, "Look how thin you have become? You still make grandpa worried."
"Mom, I will definitely eat a few more bowls of rice tonight."
Meng Yao took her mother's arm and left the room. In fact, she knew very well that her grandfather wanted to take her out so that she could ask Dr. Wu about her true condition.
"Xiao Wu, tell me quickly, how is Yaoyao's illness?" Seeing Meng Yao enter the kitchen of the courtyard, Meng Lin and the old man looked at Dr. Wu at the same time.
"Chief, Yaoyao... is very ill!"
Doctor Wu's face was heavy. He said, "Her heart pulse is damaged, and she can't operate on it. I'm afraid it will be very troublesome..."
Doctors are most afraid of bringing bad news to patients' families, especially in front of Mr. Meng. Dr. Wu undoubtedly feels a lot of pressure at this moment.
"Xiao Wu, let's talk about the important point, will Yaoyao's illness be life-threatening?" The old man has been fighting in a hail of bullets in his life, but when faced with big events, he calmed down.
"I can't cure it."
Dr. Wu took a deep breath and said: "Judging from the condition, Yaoyao can only live for another year at most, but it is strange that there seems to be a membrane protecting her heart veins, and she may be able to survive for two years.
…”
When he checked Meng Yao's pulse just now, what puzzled Dr. Wu the most was that there seemed to be a powerful force in Meng Yao's heart that was slowing down the deterioration of her condition. However, he could not find out where this force came from.
come out.
"What? Only...only two years to live? You...you read that right?" Mr. Meng has experienced countless storms and waves in his life. At this moment, his figure was shaken, and a sad look appeared on his face.
"Chief, I should be right. If you don't believe it, you can ask Yaoyao to go to the hospital for a systematic examination. She has heart failure, which is different from ordinary heart diseases."
Dr. Wu smiled bitterly. He had just witnessed a medical miracle in the morning, and this afternoon he encountered a terminal illness. This is why only a doctor can encounter so many life, old age, illness and death.
"Uncle Wu, can anyone cure this disease?" Meng Lin said in a trembling voice: "Is there anyone abroad who can cure this disease? Tell me, and I will ask a doctor..."
"Yao Yao's condition is very special. As far as I know, there have been cases like this abroad before, but the result..."
Dr. Wu did not continue, but his meaning was very obvious. Those few cases of similar symptoms all died after ineffective treatment.
"Hey, by the way, there is a person who may be able to cure Yaoyao's disease!" Dr. Wu suddenly thought of what he saw in the morning, and a hint of joy appeared on his face.
