Chapter 517: Is that you want.
Ye Liu took the pot of egg drop soup to the villagers together with Mammy An and Lang, after being tossed around so much Shen Li was still asleep while Chen Mi still had another round of clothes that he wanted a little bun to try. Yu Dong wanted to tease Fang Chi but he was snatched away by Grandma Fang, who had a bunch of things that she wanted to say to him. In the end, Yu Dong was left alone even Yu Mai left to accompany his favourite second brother-in-law as for Mu Ran and her brother, the two of them were with their daddy.
” What to do?” Yu Dong murmured under her breath as she walked towards her room but then she was stopped by the sound of a series of coughs. The coughing was so severe that she could sense that the person who was coughing was almost on the verge of fainting because of suffocation, she hurriedly turned around and walked to the room that was next to hers and opened the door. Sure enough, the second she pushed open the room, she saw that grandma Yu was almost on the verge of coughing her lungs out.
She glanced at the scrawny figure lying on the bed wearing worn-out clothes, grandma Yu was sitting up straight with her back hunched over as she coughed until her throat started to feel like she was drinking fire.
” Grandmother, please lay back on the bed,” Yu Dong hurried over to Grandma Yu and helped her lay back on the bed. She instilled a bit of her spiritual energy, however, Grandma Yu was old enough already Yu Dong could not give her any more spiritual energy than she has already poured into her body. What was more with Grandma Yu’s condition even if she kept pouring spiritual energy into her body it wasn’t going to help her at all.
When her coughing stopped Grandma Yu tried to push Yu Dong away as she said, ” You should stay away from me, Dong Dong. I have caught a cold, if you stay with me then you will catch it as well just …just give me some hot water and leave me alone, I am so strong… I will be fine with just hot water .. go and don’t come in the room until my cough gets better.”
As she spoke a lot, Grandma Yu got another coughing fit as she placed a hand on her mouth, she pushed Yu Dong away and said, ” Go, Go .. you have a young son and a pregnant husband, you can’t catch a cold. Leave grandma alone.”
Yu Dong took a proper glance at Grandma Yu, now that she was looking at her carefully, Yu Dong could see that even in her old clothes that were a bit too tight for her after she regained some of her strength back, Grandma Yu looked especially weak and haggard. Given that Grandma Yu was taller than her these clothes should have been a perfect fit for her but instead, they were really loose on grandma Yu’s figure.
“It’s nothing to be worried about grandmother,” Yu Dong knew it better than anyone just how much pain grandma Yu must be going through after having her lungs filled with water but she was still insisting on taking care of her. Seeing her like this Yu Dong could not help but worry about her, just what kind of life Grandma Yu has been living in the Yu family that she thought it was all right for her to be left alone like this?
” What are you talking about?” Even though Grandma Yu was lacking her usual vitality she glared at Yu Dong said in a somewhat stern voice. ” You are going to be a mother soon and there is also a little bun, do you want your pregnant husband and child to be infected by a cold? Don’t you know that the village doctor is trapped in another village and she wouldn’t be able to come back until this flood is over, why do you want to take such a risk huh?”
Yu Dong saw grandma Yu scold her and couldn’t help but chuckle as she sat down on the edge of the bed and placed her hand on the burning forehead of grandma Yu as she said, ” There is no need for you to worry about me catching a cold, you might not know this but I am even sturdier than you are.” She then turned to look at the sweat that was covering grandmother Yu’s clothes and said softly, ” You have a fever that’s why you will have sweat a lot, it’s not good for you to leave it alone, so I will go and boil some water, you can wipe your body after that make sure to change your clothes as well.”
Grandma Yu had a lot of water in her lungs, she will be getting a fever every now and then, and her limbs would feel heavy as well, but no matter how sick she felt, she has to take care of herself, what was more she has to keep herself hydrated and carefully taken care of, if not then she will end up getting pneumonia.
” But——-” began grandma Yu but Yu Dong didn’t give her a chance to say anything of the sort, instead she turned to look at her pulse and said in a stern voice, ” Grandmother, you have to take care of yourself, at least right now your condition is not as severe as I thought it was going to be…if you take care of yourself right now, you will be able to recover or else you can just stay on bed and wait to die, is that you want? If your condition turned serious then I will be cursed for being unfilial, you might not know this but the Yu family is not living with me and I am taking care of you, if something happens to you then they will have my head.”
Then she turned to look at grandma Yu solemnly as she said, ” Is that what you want grandma?”
