Dr. Liu's question was very direct, and Rob heard a hint of complaint in his tone, in fact, Rob also felt that Grandpa Jiang's son was a bit excessive. But she didn't know if there was anything hidden in it, so she didn't say anything.

I don't know what the other party said, Dr. Liu said: "In this case, I will give the elderly an examination, I hope you don't have a burden and cause pressure on the elderly, which is not good for the elderly's health." ”

Rob heard him say this, that is, when he went to Grandpa Jiang's son, it was likely that he knew that his father was going to come to the hospital for examination.

After hanging up the phone, Dr. Liu reluctantly began to write medical records. "I can prescribe you a check-up, but I hope you understand that you don't need to be so pressured by what other people think, can you?"

"I know, doctor, I just want to prove it to my son. ”

Grandpa Jiang was unusually stubborn, and Rob thought to himself that he must have been hurt by his son.

Dr. Liu prescribed a checklist for blood routine, C-reactive protein, and non-contrast lung CT scan, and Grandpa Jiang took it in his hand and thanked him repeatedly: "Thank you, doctor......"

"You're welcome. Dr. Liu nodded at Grandpa Jiang, and then said to Rob, "Be careful, pay attention to protection." ”

Rob hurriedly responded, followed Grandpa Jiang out of the outpatient clinic, and walked to the side where the blood was drawn.

"Xiao Luo...... I'm sorry I lied to you today. ”

His voice was very guilty, and Rob listened sadly, "Grandpa Jiang, can you tell me what the hell is going on?"

While the two were queuing, Grandpa Jiang talked about his situation.

Grandpa Jiang has been staying at home since he retired from the library, and then his wife left, he can't play cards or mahjong, and he rarely goes out on weekdays, only occasionally going downstairs to play chess at the big banyan tree.

He has a son and a daughter, and his daughter is in the field, so he usually comes back after the New Year, or once every other year, and he has to go to his son-in-law's hometown for another Spring Festival. The son, daughter-in-law, granddaughter and the old man are very close, and they live in a community, but they are usually busy with work and do not have much time to meet, and most of them get together on holidays.

The community in the city is not like the big yard in the countryside, Grandpa Jiang rarely communicates with his neighbors, but fortunately he has a balcony at home, and he can also raise some flowers and plants. He has been dealing with books all his life, reading books, tidying up the house, and the day has passed.

What he is looking forward to most is his little granddaughter's winter and summer vacations.

During the winter vacation this year, the little granddaughter was at her grandfather's house during the day, playing games, watching TV, doing homework, and waiting for her parents to pick her up after work in the evening, and occasionally leaving her to live at her grandfather's house.

But the peaceful days didn't last long, first the son and daughter-in-law came home later and later, as if they were very busy, picked up the children and left, did not eat at home, and did not talk much. Grandpa Jiang asked his son if he was busy, why didn't he eat at home, did he work overtime? The son said vaguely, he was very busy, and he had eaten casually at the unit, so he didn't ask much.

Later, the two of them didn't send their granddaughter to the old man, but also took it to the unit, Grandpa Jiang was even more puzzled, and asked them, how do you work overtime with children, how good is it for me to help you stay at home!

But the son was stumbling and didn't explain the reason.

After that, it was a year ago, and the daughter and her family were ready to come up from the county seat.

As usual, the family is sure to have a lively dinner.

Grandpa Jiang began to eat for his daughter and son-in-law, son and daughter-in-law, granddaughter and grandson 7 in the morning, but at noon, his son said to him on the phone: "Our family of three can eat a little with you, now the country does not advocate multi-person gatherings, if the eldest sister comes, I don't know if I will come into contact with infected people along the way, both families have children, I called the eldest sister and asked her not to come up first, and wait for the epidemic to pass." ”

Grandpa Jiang had seen the news on TV before, but he usually went out less and had less contact with others, so he didn't realize that the matter was so serious.

After that, he saw that the news talked about the new coronavirus human-to-human transmission for the first time, and many people in Wubei have been diagnosed, compared to the number of confirmed cases, there are more scary suspected cases, although he feels that his heart is not good, but he feels that it is understandable that his daughter will not come back for reunion for the time being.

But when his son didn't let his granddaughter come to him, he couldn't understand it.

Once Grandpa Jiang couldn't help it and called his son to ask. The son said: "It was said on the news that this viral pneumonia mostly occurs in the elderly, and the elderly are very serious when they become ill, and the mortality rate is very high. ”

Only then did Grandpa Jiang know that his son was afraid that his disease would spread to the child.

A few days later, Wubei was locked down, but Grandpa Jiang and his son lived in a community, and they also got together on Chinese New Year's Eve to have a simple meal, and they ate carefully.

After the meal, the son's family of three went back to their house without much delay.

Grandpa Jiang spent the whole New Year alone, and his son never came to see him once. The more he thought about it, the more he couldn't sit still, so today he came to the hospital to take blood and take a film to confirm whether he was infected with the virus.

After listening to Grandpa Jiang's narration, Rob felt very uncomfortable, feeling that Grandpa Jiang's son was too unkind, even for his own children, he couldn't treat the old man like this.

But although Grandpa Jiang is angry with his son, it is also his son.

After all, she is an outsider, so she can't say anything, lest Grandpa Jiang and his son have any suspicions, they are father and son, how can there be hatred?

All she could do was to accompany the old man as much as possible.

Now the results are coming out very quickly, and there is no need to wait for two days like at the beginning.

After the afternoon results came out, Rob went to Dr. Liu with all the checklists.

Dr. Liu turned on the computer and pointed out to Grandpa Jiang, "The CT scan of the lungs is normal." The hemogram is normal. C-reactive protein is normal. You don't have pneumonia, all other blood tests are normal, and then C-reactive protein and procalcitonin are normal. You are really a very healthy, very healthy old man, you can go back with peace of mind, but remember to wash your hands frequently, go out as little as possible, and wear a mask when you go out. ”

Grandpa Jiang smiled after hearing this, and when he walked, his back was straight, and his pace was very fast and steady.

Rob could feel the joy in Grandpa Jiang's heart. I thought I would have to call back in a few days, after all, he had been in the fever clinic once.

Back in the community, Rob sent Grandpa Jiang to the door, and Grandpa Jiang apologized and said that he shouldn't have lied to her, but he couldn't do it if he didn't say so.

Rob was actually able to understand the old man's mood and said, "Grandpa Jiang, the epidemic will pass soon, and you and your family will be reunited." ”

Grandpa Jiang had tears in his eyes and nodded. "Thank you, Ronaldo. ”
