Chapter 613: Chapter 613: Good Recovery Chapter 613: Chapter 613: Good Recovery “Father, how is your recovery going? Did Yunjin come today specifically to check on your wounds?” Gu Ya walked up to Gu Chengxiang and asked him.
Recently, Gu Chengxiang had been taking medicine and applying topical remedies every day, as instructed by Su Yunjin, and Mrs. An had been massaging Gu Changshun on a daily basis.
The massage techniques were also taught to Mrs. An by Su Yunjin. Such massages were beneficial for Lord Gu Chengxiang’s wound recovery. Su Yunjin taught Mrs. An to massage him every day, not only to promote blood circulation but to also make Changshun feel comfortable all over. It was said that Su Yunjin was there to check on the injury.
Gu Chengxiang looked at Su Yunjin and mentioned the previous visit from Mrs. An, “Third son’s wife, your mother came to see you last time about this matter. You said you would check on father’s wounds once every half a month. When half a month passed and you hadn’t come, she went to find you herself.”
Su Yunjin indeed had promised Gu Chengxiang that she would check his wounds every half a month, but because of the rumors, she had gone back to her maternal home and had been staying there, which delayed her from checking on Lord Gu Chengxiang’s wounds. She learned that her mother-in-law, Mrs. An, had come to find her for this.
Feeling somewhat apologetic, Su Yunjin looked at Gu Chengxiang.
“Father, I’m sorry, this month, because of the rumors, my husband and I went to my maternal home, which caused the delay in checking your wounds.” Gu Chengxiang was not unreasonable.
It was necessary to clear the name of a daughter-in-law slandered by others, “Third son’s wife, your reputation is important, and father’s injury has already been around for quite some time. A delay of a few days doesn’t matter much.”
Su Yunjin bent down and carefully checked Gu Chengxiang’s wounds. After a thorough examination, she said with surprise on her face, “Father, that’s great. It seems like mother’s daily massages have been effective. Your recovery has been very good. Based on what I see, I estimate that you could even be on your feet before the New Year approaches.”
Gu Chengxiang had been waiting for this day for a long time. Upon hearing Su Yunjin’s words, his cloudy old eyes suddenly lit up.
They were full of anticipation.
“Third son’s wife, are you speaking the truth? Can father truly be on his feet before the New Year?” Unable to contain his joy, Gu Chengxiang’s voice trembled as he spoke.
Mrs. An was also very excited and looked at Su Yunjin with eagerness, so thrilled that she was momentarily speechless. Su Yunjin nodded with a smile, fully understanding the feelings of her mother-in-law and father-in-law.
“Father, Mother, I am telling the truth. Father’s wounds are indeed healing nicely, better than I had imagined,” said Su Yunjin. Gu Ya had a similar experience last time and was able to stand almost a month earlier than Su Yunjin had estimated.
If Lord Gu Chengxiang continued this way, he might also be able to get on his feet perhaps half a month earlier.
Xiaoshan and Xiangxiang, although young,
could still tell that their grandfather’s wounds were healing well. Children always show consideration for those who treat them well.
Xiaoshan and Xiangxiang were no exception. Knowing that Gu Chengxiang was nice to them and that his wounds were healing well, both children were also happy in their hearts.
After checking on Lord Gu Chengxiang’s wounds, Su Yunjin noticed that Xiaoshan and Xiangxiang kept glancing at the loquats in the basket from time to time.
They had the look of craving on their faces.
Knowing that the two children were longing for loquats,
she smiled, went over, and handed them a few loquats.
“Here, take these and eat them! Peel them first.”
