Chapter 790: Still Alive, How Great
Editor: Henyee Translations
Gu Dajiang heaved a sigh of relief, but when he thought of how the doctor had said that she hadn’t eaten for a long time, he frowned again.
He wondered where his sister had been for the past year or so and what kind of life she had led.
By the way, Brother-in-law, Gu Dajiang thought of the wooden carvings. His brother-in-law used to be a carpenter. These wooden carvings should have been carved by his brother-in-law. Back then, he had gotten off the carriage to help pick them up because he had seen the wooden carvings.
In that case, his brother-in-law was still alive.
However, their life was probably not easy.
Still, at least they were alive. Gu Dajiang heaved a sigh of relief.
She looked at the unconscious Gu Dafeng and felt very uneasy.
“Father, I’ll go to the restaurant next door to buy a bowl of porridge. When Eldest Aunt wakes up, I’ll fill her stomach and warm her up,” Gu Yundong said softly.
Gu Dajiang looked up. “Thank you.”
“Not at all. Finding Eldest Aunt is more important than anything else.” She smiled and ran out of the clinic.
The crowd had already dispersed. Gu Yundong entered the restaurant next door and ordered a bowl of hot porridge and stir-fried some side dishes. People who had not eaten for a long time should not eat greasy food, so she only made two vegetarian dishes with minced meat.
When she returned with the food box, Eldest Aunt Gu was still unconscious.
Gu Dajiang frowned at the side, deep in thought.
“Father, what’s wrong?”
Gu Dajiang sighed slightly and stood up to pull Gu Yundong to the side. He said in a low voice, “I’m afraid that she won’t be able to take it if I tell her about Mulan.”
Gu Yundong thought for a moment. “Then let’s not talk about it for now. We’ll tell Eldest Aunt when she gets better.”
“Sigh, that’s good too. With Yuanzhi around, your aunt can be stronger.”
Gu Yundong felt that, “Actually, Father, you don’t have to worry too much. Ever since we escaped last year, there have been too many such things. In the past year or so, I think Eldest Aunt and Eldest Uncle have already prepared for the worst.”
Although that was the case, before confirming the news, they could still comfort themselves and say that they had a glimmer of hope.
As the father and daughter were talking, a faint voice suddenly came from behind.
The two of them hurriedly turned around and saw that Eldest Aunt Gu had indeed woken up.
She looked dazed, as if she hadn’t registered where she was or remembered what had happened before she’d passed out.
However, when Gu Dajiang and Gu Yundong stood in front of her, she said with a trembling voice, “I’m not dreaming. Brother, it’s really you.”
Gu Dajiang sat on a chair at the side. “It’s me, Sister. I’m Dajiang. You’re not dreaming.”
Gu Yundong obediently greeted, “Aunt.”
“Yundong, it’s Yundong.”
She reached out and grabbed Gu Yundong’s hand tightly.
But compared to Gu Yundong’s delicate hands, Eldest Aunt Gu’s hands were so thin that they looked like bones.
Gu Yundong felt a little sad. “Aunt, the doctor said that you haven’t eaten for a long time. I bought porridge. Eat something to fill your stomach first, and then we can talk nicely, okay?”
Gu Dajiang had already taken out a bowl and spoon. He scooped a mouthful and handed it over.
Tears welled up in the corners of Gu Dafeng’s eyes. She choked up a little and nodded. Then, she opened her mouth and took a bite.
After swallowing the soft porridge, she seemed to warm up.
Looking at her brother in front of her, Gu Dafeng wanted to cry and laugh.
It was great that her brother was still alive and her niece was fine. She didn’t even dare to think about meeting them again in the past.
