  Chapter 7, The illness of grandparents

  This is the entrance of Shanao Village, a remote mountain village in Ningcheng, Jiangnan Province.

   "Thank you uncle~"

   "Thank you, everyone from the same place, let's go~"

  Liu Yuan carried his schoolbag and watched the uncle who brought him back along the way to leave, and then looked at the mountain village in front of him.

  Shanao Village is not a small village with hundreds of households. During the Chinese New Year, it is very lively. When people who work outside come back, their cars will stop at the entrance of the village.

But now it's summer vacation, and the village is very deserted. Almost every household is closed, and not even a child can be seen. When the summer vacation comes, the children who originally stayed in the village will basically go to the city to go to the place where their parents work. summer vacation.

   It is only occasionally that you can see a few older people looking at the cement road at the entrance of the village alone, as if looking forward to their relatives to come and see them.

   "Grandma Li~"

   "Grandpa Wang~"

   Liu Yuan also greeted the old man in the village warmly.

   From childhood to adulthood, I have received a lot of love from these elderly people. During New Years and festivals, I often bring delicious food to Liu Yuan’s home.

   "I'm back~"

   "Are you tired on the construction site?"

   "You child, you have been sensible since you were a child, but your life is hard."

   "School is about to start, you must study hard and get ahead."

   "Is the tuition enough? If not, I still have some money here. I'll use it first."

  The old people were very happy to see Liu Yuan, and they all asked questions eagerly. The old people who cared about Liu Yuan even asked about Liu Yuan's tuition.

   "I have enough tuition fees. Thanks to Uncle Pan taking me to work on the construction site, I can earn hundreds of dollars a day. Tuition fees and living expenses are enough."

   "Grandpa, you have to pay attention to your body."

   "I will study hard."

Liu Yuan also responded with a smile, and soon came to his house, looked at his adobe house, and then looked at the beautiful houses of his neighbors. This house was built by grandparents and lived in for three generations. Pretty shabby.

   "Grandpa, Grandma~"

   Before the person reached the door, Liu Yuan shouted loudly, and soon Liu Yuan's grandmother came out with a cane.

   When seeing Liu Yuan back, Liu Yuan's grandmother laughed happily.

   "I'll count the time and you should be home too. You're hungry. I'm heating food in the pot, so hurry up and eat."

   "Cough cough~"

  Liu Yuan's grandmother coughed as soon as she finished speaking.

   "Grandma~"

   Liu Yuan quickly stepped forward to support her, and then gently patted her grandmother's back.

In Liu Yuan's impressions and memories, grandma has been coughing all the time, and sometimes the coughing is particularly severe. She has coughed all night, all night. She has taken many medicines and seen many doctors, but she has always been cured. No, after Liu Yuan's father passed away, he was reluctant to take medicine, so he could only keep doing this, and it was getting more and more serious now.

   "It's okay, it's okay, let's go eat."

   Grandma looked at Liu Yuan lovingly.

   I have finally grown up and become an adult, so I can relax myself.

   Just thinking of Liu Yuan's future road, the old man couldn't help but feel sad and sad, it was really hard.

As the saying goes, hemp ropes are cut at the finer points, and bad luck only finds the poor, so that Liu Yuan had to rely on himself at a young age, and he also had to carry two burdens. The other children were playing happily during the summer vacation, but he was the To work on the construction site to earn tuition.

   "Well, the dishes that grandma copied are delicious~"

Liu Yuan eats the vegetables cooked by his grandmother, all the vegetables he grows himself, and there is not a little bit of meat, but Liu Yuan eats it very happily. It has been like this since he was a child. On the one hand, he has nothing to eat, and on the other hand, Liu Yuan Since I was a child, I was sensible and did not let my grandparents worry about their own meals.

   "Eat more if it's delicious~"

   Grandma looked at her grandson carefully, with a kind face, and kept adding rice and vegetables to Liu Yuan.

   "Where's Grandpa?"

   "Your grandfather went to work in the fields and will be back later."

   "Grandma, this is the money I earned by working during the summer vacation. It's more than 10,000 yuan. I'll take you two to see the doctor tomorrow, and get some medicine~"

  Liu Yuan took out the money he earned from his summer job from his schoolbag and handed it over to his grandmother.

   "Yo, so many~"

   Grandma took the money, counted it carefully, then looked at Liu Yuan and said, "Oh, it's really hard for you, other children are playing, but you are going to work on the construction site to make money."

   "It's not bitter, it's not tired at all, you see, I've gotten fat and turned white. I'm smashing the walls and shoveling white ashes in the house, and I can't even get the sun."

   Liu Yuan hurriedly said with a smile, although he was very tired when he hit the wall, but in the grandparents' place, naturally, he couldn't say that he was tired or bitter, or he would cry again when he waited.

   "Keep the money for yourself. School is about to start, and you are in your third year of high school. There is a lot of money to be used."

"I heard people say that this is the third year of high school, it's very stressful, I have some eggs at home, and I'm not going to sell them. You will take them to school then, eat two a day, supplement your nutrition, and do well in the exam next year. University, to stand out in the future."

   "As for me and your grandfather, it's the old way, it's okay, it's the same whether you look at it or not, don't spend money indiscriminately, there will be more places to spend money in the future."

   Grandma had tears in her eyes as she spoke. The family was really poor and hard. Even the eggs laid by the hens were reluctant to eat.

   "It's okay, the money is enough, more than 10,000 yuan, enough, next year I can work on the construction site to make money."

   "No, it's all the same. It's the same whether it's cured or not. Why waste money?"

  Liu Yuan saw that his grandmother insisted, but there was nothing he could do. After eating in a hurry, he went to the fields to help his grandfather.

  Liu Yuan's grandmother was coughing all the time. No matter how to treat it, it couldn't be cured. Liu Yuan's grandfather was also in poor health and had cancer, but it was not malignant, acute, but chronic.

  Because there is no money for treatment at home, and even if there is money, cancer is difficult to cure, so grandpa simply gave up treatment.

Liu Yuan's grandfather was originally tall and strong, but because of this disease and the lack of treatment for a long time, a person who originally weighed 156 pounds is now as thin as a bamboo pole, and a gust of wind may kill his grandfather. To blow down.

   But even so, Liu Yuan's grandfather still has to work in the fields, farming and selling grain, and pulling and raising Liu Yuan.

   "Seed, do you have any medicine or method to cure my grandparents' illness?"

   In the evening, listening to the coughing sounds from the next door and the pain of grandpa, Liu Yuan also chatted with the smart program in his mind. The seed was the name Liu Yuan gave to the smart program.

   "Of course, your grandmother should have a lung disease, so she kept coughing. As for your grandfather's cancer, it's easy to treat. This kind of disease common to low-level civilizations is trivial."

   The sound of the intelligent program came to mind, and along with a slight fluctuation in the space, an instrument similar to a thermometer appeared in front of Liu Yuan's eyes.

   "This thing is called a life restoration instrument, which can cure most of the diseases encountered by the parent star civilization."

  Liu Yuan held the Life Restoration Instrument and pressed it lightly, and a green light blazed out.

   "Can you cure it with this light in a few minutes?"

   Liu Yuan looked at the life restoration instrument in his hand in disbelief, and expressed doubts about the intelligent program's words.

   "Don't underestimate this light, it incorporates a lot of high-tech technology, and the technology it uses far exceeds the current technology of your earthlings. You'll know it when you try it."

In   's mind, the seed seemed quite confident, and at the same time conveyed contempt to Liu Yuan, as if he had never seen the world.

   "Okay, I'll give it a try~"

  Liu Yuan came to the grandparents' room with the life restoration instrument, and watched the grandparents suffering from illness, and it was difficult to sleep well even if they were sleeping. It was very sad to see them.

With a single press, the life restoration instrument released a green light that enveloped the grandparents at once. As soon as the green light shone on the grandparents, the grandparents who were unable to sleep because of the coughing and pain suddenly became numb on their faces. Showing a comfortable look.

   Soon after, the two old people fell into a deep sleep comfortably, grandma no longer coughed, grandpa no longer frowning in pain.

The wrinkles and folds on the original face, accompanied by the green light, turned out to be rejuvenated. The wrinkles were slowly disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye. At the same time, even the dry white hair on the head seemed to be reborn, but it gradually began to change. black.

Being tortured by illness for many years, coupled with the advanced age, it originally looked like dead wood, but now it is illuminated by green light, like a dead tree in spring, and it begins to regenerate. The whole person suddenly seems to be more than ten years younger, and the complexion is ruddy. luster.

   "Okay, it's alright~"

  In my mind, the voice of the seeds sounded again.

  Liu Yuan put down the life restoration instrument in his hand and looked at his grandfather and grandma again, showing a surprised look.

   "It's incredible~"

   "Grandpa and grandma seem to be more than ten years younger all of a sudden, and they don't cough or hurt anymore."

"Of course, don't look at what level of technology this life restoration instrument is, this is a high-end product that can only be produced by a star-level civilization, that is, your grandparents are too old, and their lives are almost exhausted. It's so dry, otherwise, this life restoration instrument can completely make your grandparents look like they were in their twenties."

   "I'm back to being in my forties or fifties now. I guess it's fine to live a few more decades in the future."

   "How many decades will my grandparents live?"

   "Definitely, they are too old, and the treatment effect is greatly reduced, otherwise, decades are nothing."

"Great!"

   "Thank you, thank you~"

  Liu Yuan is very excited. What Liu Yuan has always been most afraid of is losing his dearest grandparents again. If grandparents also leave, he will really be alone in this world.

   Now that their illness has been cured, I can go to study with confidence and learn the high-tech knowledge in the seeds.

  PS: Thank you for your reward and support, everyone is handsome, beauties are by your side, everyone makes a lot of money, and the money is rolling in~
