"Grandpa, I'm embarrassed by what you said, but I thank you for your kindness. I'll remember it in the future." Zhao Yali looked at Lao Hu gratefully, her heart still feeling warm.
"Silly child, there's really nothing to be embarrassed about.
I was young once. You see, I'm an old man now, but who hasn't liked someone before?
Who hasn't sacrificed for love? "Lao Hu puffed out his chest, causing Zhao Yali to laugh out loud.
"Dad and mom raised you up and paid for you to go to school so that you could have a good life. You can't use other people's mistakes to punish yourself, it's not worth it."
"Yes, you're right, Grandpa." Zhao Yali nodded like a chick pecking at grains.
"You need to improve yourself so that you can attract those outstanding men!"
In the end, Lao Hu patted Zhao Yali's shoulder with a sincere and earnest tone. He looked like he was teaching her earnestly.
"Grandpa, you're so nice, the teacher never said these things to us." Zhao Yali said sincerely.
"Hehe, don't laugh at me, I can't be compared to your teacher!"
"Actually, our teachers aren't bad, especially our counselor, Teacher Sophie. She's like a big sister to us."
"That new Teacher Su?" Lao Hu asked tentatively.
"Yes!
It was that newcomer, the beautiful and gentle Teacher Su!
Everyone in our class likes her! "When Zhao Yali talked about Sophie, she beamed with joy. It could be seen that she really liked her.
"That's good, Teacher Su looks like a good and understanding teacher." Lao Hu smiled kindly.
"Yes!
But we heard that she hasn't been in a relationship yet. It's unbelievable, how can such an outstanding person not have a boyfriend. "Zhao Yali held her chin thoughtfully, as if she was really troubled.
"Is that so? That's a bit strange, but she's still young, it's good to focus on her career first. Dating can't be rushed, it'll happen naturally if it's fated."
"Sir, your words really hit the nail on the head."
The way Zhao Yali looked at Old Hu was not the same as before. In her heart, he was no longer just a guard.
"I'm old, I've experienced a lot. I don't want to see you kids do stupid things. Study hard and have a bright future!" Lao Hu held Zhao Yali's hand and took the opportunity to take advantage of her.
"But I heard that there's a man outside of school who keeps pestering Teacher Su!" Zhao Yali suddenly thought and said.
"You can't say things like that. Don't ruin Teacher Su's reputation," Old Hu reminded. At the same time, he was very unhappy.
"Which bastard dares to pester Sophie?
"I'm not talking nonsense. A lot of people in the class know about it. Some people saw it, and some people heard Teacher Su talking to him on the phone!" Zhao Yali raised her voice, trying to prove that she was not talking nonsense.
"Well, it's good that you guys care about Teacher Su, but this is Teacher Su's own business. It's not good for outsiders to interfere. You guys just have to pay more attention and don't let Teacher Su be bullied." Lao Hu sighed sincerely, like an elder.
"Yes, yes, I'll listen to you, grandpa. It's good to chat with you. I'll definitely come to play with you in the future." Zhao Yali's mood was much better.
"No problem, Yali, grandpa just saw that your tongue is pale. Has your mouth been bitter and smelly recently?" Lao Hu started a new topic.
"How did you know?
Don't tell me that I just …. suffocated you? "Zhao Yali's face turned red as she subconsciously covered her mouth.
This was too shameful!
She did have a bit of bad breath recently, but she didn't take it seriously. Now, someone actually pointed it out.
"No, it's me. I used to be a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, so I have a little occupational disease. It was just an accidental observation just now. You don't have to be embarrassed." Lao Hu poured a cup of hot water and passed it to Zhao Yali.
"You also know traditional Chinese medicine?" Zhao Yali's face was full of disbelief, exactly the same as Sophie.
"Of course, grandpa has a certificate." After that, Lao Hu stood up and took out the doctor's certificate, his face full of pride.
"That's amazing!" Zhao Yali took it and looked at it from left to right. Her heart was filled with admiration.
"Hehe, it's good that you know. Don't tell others about this."
Lao Hu lowered his voice. After all, it was a fake certificate. The more people knew about it, the higher the risk of being exposed!
"Okay, but grandpa, since you used to be a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, why are you now …" Zhao Yali paused, but Lao Hu also knew what she was trying to say.
"Didn't grandpa say just now? Who hasn't been crazy about love?" He took a sip of hot water and prepared to start talking nonsense.
"Back then, I had just learned traditional Chinese medicine. I was young and energetic, so I wanted to practice medicine and save the world.
Then, I fell in love with a girl, but she had a rare disease.
At that time, everyone was poor, and the medical conditions were not good. So, I studied all kinds of medical books, wanting to cure her. "When speaking of this, Lao Hu's voice was particularly hoarse, as if he was really sad.
"What happened after that?
Did you cure her? "Zhao Yali opened her big eyes curiously.
"It's all my fault for not being good at medicine!
It's also my fault for being young and inexperienced. She left me a few years later … So, I only wanted to be alone for the rest of my life. "Lao Hu wiped his eyes, deeply immersed in his role.
"Because of this, you stopped being a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner?"
"Yes."
"Grandpa, it's not your fault. You've tried your best. Life and death are decreed by fate, and the world is unpredictable. It's not up to us." Zhao Yali was a little emotional, but seeing Lao Hu so sad, she stood up and hugged him.
In this little girl's warm and soft arms, Lao Hu greedily inhaled the fragrance, which was enough for him to savor for a few days.
"Hey!
Let's not talk about the past. If you trust grandpa, grandpa will take a look at you. "Lao Hu began to get into the main topic.
"Okay!" Not knowing whether it was out of sympathy or trust, Zhao Yali agreed without hesitation.
"Okay, grandpa will check your pulse first."
Then, Lao Hu openly touched the little girl's hand, and the delicate skin was really memorable.
"Your stomach is too strong. Eat less spicy and dry food, and drink more hot water. Don't think that water is ordinary, it's really good stuff. It's said that women are made of water, and this saying is not without reason." Lao Hu seriously advised.
"I'll remember grandpa," Zhao Yali's expression was exactly the same as Sophie's at that time. She really took Lao Hu's words as an imperial edict.
