Chapter 290 The couple has thought it through
Old Man Mu pounded his old legs and sighed, "It's not easy to live a long life."
"The King of Hell has already made it clear that not everyone can live as long as they want."
If possible, he also wants to live longer and see his granddaughter grow up, get married and have children.
Zhu gritted her teeth and made up her mind, "Old man, starting tomorrow, I will eat better."
"Don't worry about money. Eat well and take care of your body. Maybe you can live longer this way."
"Seeing the baby like this, my heart aches like a knife."
In the end, Old Man Mu couldn't help it, so he got out of bed, picked up his pipe, and sat aside to smoke.
"Okay, I'll do whatever you want."
He smiled bitterly and said, "After this incident, I dare not think too much anymore, for fear that the baby will worry."
He has many grandchildren, and they are all boys, so it doesn't matter if they are raised a little roughly.
The baby is different. She is a well-behaved granddaughter, and so young. How could he not bear to see her suffer?
Zhu raised her hand and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. "I regret it now. Why did I think so much? Look how scared the baby is."
"This child has been a good sleeper since he was little. He has never been like this before."
Mu Laodi took a deep drag on his pipe and said, "Ask Doctor Deng for help tomorrow and take the necessary medicine."
Before leaving home, he and his wife took all the silver and valuables in the house with them, for fear that they would run out of money on the road.
We can't use all the money from Doctor Deng and his men.
Zhu said, "Old man, when we get to the next town, let's find a pawnshop and pawn some things. I'm worried that we won't have enough money."
Father Mu was thinking this very thing. "Let's just go by ourselves. Don't let the children and Doctor Deng know about it."
Zhu responded and continued to pat the wooden baby.
Both husband and wife were out of pajamas.
The next day, it was dawn.
Old Man Mu and Mrs. Zhu, who hadn't slept much all night, came out of the side room holding Baby Mu.
As soon as they came out, the couple saw the servants busy packing up.
"You're up so early?" Doctor Deng was eating a Hu pancake. "Are you feeling better? Is the baby still sleeping?"
Old Man Mu and Mrs. Zhu hurried downstairs to express their gratitude.
"Doctor Deng, we'd like you to check on the baby." Zhu recounted what happened last night, her face filled with worry. "The baby's been frightened."
Upon hearing this, Doctor Deng handed the uneaten Hu Bing to an angry shop owner.
He wiped his hands on his clothes and then took Mu Baobao's pulse.
"Apart from these situations, did the baby have any other problems last night?"
Zhu said anxiously, "Also, the baby didn't sleep well all night."
"The baby has been sleeping well since he was little. This is the first time like this."
Doctor Deng had finished taking the patient's pulse and breathed a sigh of relief. "Nothing serious."
"The baby is frightened, that's why he behaves like this."
"She is too young to take those medicines. I will make some medicinal food for her to nourish her."
Mrs. Zhu felt extremely regretful and blamed herself, "If it weren't for me and the old man, the baby wouldn't have suffered like this."
Old Man Mu wanted to slap himself twice.
Doctor Deng advised, "It has already happened, so stop blaming yourself and feeling regretful."
"If you have this much time, you might as well take good care of the baby and not let her get scared again."
"Children are easily frightened and make mistakes."
Zhu and Mu Laodi quickly agreed.
As long as the baby is well, they are willing to do anything you ask them to do.
Doctor Deng gave a few more instructions and then went to the kitchen to prepare medicinal food.
Mrs. Zhu and Old Man Mu had no appetite at all, and they sat on the stool holding Baby Mu.
Baby Mu showed no signs of waking up, but his little brows were tightly furrowed, and it was obvious that he was sleeping restlessly.
"You two, please eat something." Baozi was served for breakfast.
Meat buns, soy milk and Hu pancakes were all made by the accompanying chef early in the morning.
"Old woman, eat something." Mu Laoye stuffed a meat bun into Zhu's hand and advised, "We agreed to take care of the baby."
Zhu looked at her granddaughter in her arms, eating the meat buns without any taste.
Her poor granddaughter...
After they were on the road, Cheng Zishi and others knew what happened to Mu Baobao last night and were very worried about her.
Fortunately, Mu Baobao was still in good spirits, but he insisted on staying by Zhu's side and holding on to the corner of her clothes.
Even if you tempt her with food, she won't want to leave.
"Baby, grandma and your grandpa are fine." Zhu said softly and comfortingly.
Mu Baobao tightened his grip on the corner of her clothes, and his little face lost its usual smile. "Mother..."
"It's okay, it's okay." Zhu hugged her and comforted her like a precious baby.
She really hated herself now. She had clearly told herself not to think so much, but she still thought so much and made the baby so worried.
Baby Mu nestled in her arms, sobbing, "Grandma, you and Grandpa, please don't leave me. I'm scared."
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid." Zhu's heart was broken when she heard this. "Grandma and I will never leave you. We will never leave you for the rest of our lives."
"Your grandfather and I agreed last night that we will take good care of our health and accompany the baby as he grows up."
"In the future, we still have to see Bao Bao get married and have children."
Mu Baobao didn't quite believe it, because she saw her grandpa and grandma fall in front of her yesterday.
Just like that, he fell in front of her.
Her grandparents, who were so powerful in her heart, collapsed in front of her yesterday.
Zhu and Old Man Mu looked at each other, not knowing how to coax him.
It can be seen that what happened yesterday caused great harm and stimulation to the baby.
"I'll go get Doctor Deng."
Father Mu lifted the carriage curtain and politely said to the coachman, "Could you please ask Doctor Deng to come over? The baby is feeling a little unwell."
The coachman bowed, stopped the carriage and went to invite Doctor Deng.
After a while, Dr. Deng came into the carriage.
"Doctor Deng," Mrs. Zhu said quickly, "The baby is crying again. I don't think she's in a good mood."
It was the first time that Dr. Deng saw a baby so listless and crying.
He first took Mu Baobao's pulse and then gave her acupuncture.
Baby Mu fell asleep just like that.
"The baby's mood isn't very stable, so it's best to let her get more sleep," Dr. Deng explained. "Or maybe yesterday's incident was too stimulating for the baby."
"Maybe it's the first time for both of you to do this, so the baby has such a big reaction."
Old Man Mu and Mrs. Zhu looked at each other. This was the first time this had happened.
They have always been in good health and have no illnesses.
"Doctor Deng, how should we treat the baby's condition?" asked Mrs. Zhu.
Old Man Mu also looked at Doctor Deng eagerly.
Doctor Deng said, "Just spend more time with him."
"The baby is too young to take medicine, and the effect of the medicine is not very good. Please stay with her more."
"As long as the baby understands that you will be with her and nothing will go wrong, she will be fine."
