Chapter 17: Old Man Jacob
Gu Yue was lying on the bed, listening to someone outside, it should be Sister Yaxuan's grandfather who is back, Gu Yue thought that Uncle Xu should also come back together. Thinking of this, Gu Yue couldn't help but feel impatient in his heart, he really wanted to see Uncle Xu immediately, although Gu Yue didn't see the battle with his own eyes, but he could also feel that it was very intense, Gu Yue was very worried about Uncle Xu's situation, now his parents' life and death are uncertain, Uncle Xu is Gu Yue's only relative in this world now, he doesn't want anything to happen to Uncle Xu. Thinking of her parents, Gu Yue became sad again.
At this time, I heard Yaxuan's surprise shout outside: "Grandpa, you're back!Grandpa Xu, go and take a look, Xiaoyue woke up just now! You've been worried about him for the past few days, but now he's finally awakened, and he doesn't seem to be fine." ”
"What, Xiao Yue woke up! Great, I'll take a look!" Then came Uncle Xu's voice of surprise, and then he heard a rush of running sounds running towards Gu Yue's room from far and near.
"Xiao Yue, Yaxuan, why are you so close?" Grandpa Yaxuan was not so anxious, but he was a little curious about the way his granddaughter called Gu Yue, and couldn't help but ask.
"Bang!" After a heavy sound of opening the door, Xu Qing ran in quickly. "Xiaoyue, you're awake? Great! Do you feel anything uncomfortable? I've been worrying about me for the past few days. As soon as Xu Qing saw Gu Yue, he hurriedly asked.
"Uncle Xu, you..." But Gu Yue was speechless in shock when she saw Xu Qing. I saw that Xu Qing's thick black hair was like snow at the moment, and there were many wrinkles on Xu Qing's face. and Gu Yue's memories are basically two people.
Yaxuan and Grandpa hadn't seen Xu Qing before, and they didn't know the specific situation, but Xu Qing was already like this when he came here, so they didn't feel shocked. But Gu Yue grew up by Xu Qing's side since he was a child, and he clearly remembered that Uncle Xu's face used to look like a middle-aged man about thirty years old, with no wrinkles on his face, his hair was black and thick, and he felt younger than his high school teacher, but now seeing Uncle Xu like this, how could he not shock Gu Yue. What happened to me in the past few days that I was in a coma? So much so that Uncle Xu suddenly looked dozens of years older.
"Oh, I'm fine. As long as you're okay, otherwise I won't have the face to see your parents. Xu Qing sensed the shock in Gu Yue's eyes, instantly understood something, and hurriedly explained.
"No, Uncle Xu, what's wrong with you? You have to tell me, is it because of those two people last time? You tell me what happened? Uncle Xu... Woo woo woo woo ..."Gu Yue recovered a little from the shock, and hurriedly asked Xu Qing, saying that in the end, he cried sadly.
"Okay, okay, good boy, isn't Uncle Xu okay? I'm glad you care about me so much, my Xiaoyue has grown up. Hehe, okay, don't cry, a big man is crying and crying so that others can see that it's time to laugh at you. Xu Qing hurriedly hugged Gu Yue's head and comforted him.
"Uncle Xu, tell me what's wrong?" Gu Yue looked up at Xu Qing and asked with tears on her face.
"It's nothing, it's just that the last battle was too attritional, just rest for a while. Xu Qing said.
"But how did you become like this, I feel that you are very serious. Gu Yue still asked uneasily.
"I'm fine, don't worry. Okay, if you're fine, let's go out to dinner, and I'll take you to meet someone by the way. Xu Qing hurriedly diverted the topic, picked up Gu Yue and walked out of the room with him.
When he came to the room outside, Yaxuan had already put the food on the table, and was about to call the two to eat, when he saw the two of them walking out, he hurriedly helped Gu Yue to the seat with Xu Qing.
After sitting down, Gu Yue carefully looked around, this house was built of a mixture of stone and wood, everything in the house was made of wood, the walls around it were stone, the walls and doors in the house were made of wood, the roof was made of stone, and the floor was made of wood. The dishes for eating are also made of wood, and their seats are made of rattan that they don't recognize.
Sitting opposite him was Sister Yaxuan, Gu Yue already knew him, and on his left was Uncle Xu, of course Gu Yue also knew him. Only the person on the right, Gu Yue, is the first time he has seen it, and he thinks it should be Sister Yaxuan's grandfather.
Gu Yue looked at this person carefully. This old man is more than 1.8 meters tall, with gray hair, and even the sideburns and beard have turned gray, but they are neatly trimmed and clean. Although there are many wrinkles on his face, he is full of energy and red light, and his eyes are bright. Square face and big ears, a big mouth is laughing. The body is broad and strong, and the muscles on the exposed arms are solid, and it can be seen that he is a strong old man.
Just as Gu Yue was looking at the old man in front of him, the old man was also looking at Gu Yue with a smile. Although this kid has been in a coma for a few days, his body is relatively weak, but he can see that his body is strong and tight, and his physique is also very good, it seems that he should have a good foundation, and he can just wake up in a coma and be able to come out and sit here with the support of others is the best proof, if someone else has been in a coma for so long and has not eaten, even if he wakes up, he must be weak and can't get up.
"Come on, Xiaoyue. Let me introduce you to it. This is my friend Jacob, you will call Uncle Jacob in the future, he is a good man, we can't find the reason after you fell into a coma, Jacob treated you so quickly that you woke up so quickly. Xu Qing hurriedly introduced the two to each other, first introduced Jacob to Gu Yue, and then said to Jacob: "Jacob! You also know the situation of this child, so you can call him Xiaoyue as I do." ”
"Okay, okay, haha. Xiaoyue, her physical fitness is good, well, she is a good seedling. Jacob didn't see any of them, so he greeted Gu Yue.
"Oh, you've won the prize, thank you for treating Uncle Jacob for me!" Gu Yue hurriedly said politely while giving a salute.
"Hmph, he can't be called Uncle Grandpa, isn't that a generation younger than him? That's not good, he's two years younger than me, he should be my brother, and he should be called Grandpa like me. At this time, Yaxuan, who was listening to a few people on the side, suddenly interjected. She didn't expect that she was a generation lower than this kid, and pouted a little jealously.
"Haha!" the people at the table laughed when they saw her like this.
"What Sister Yaxuan said is, I still call you Grandpa Jacob, you call you the relationship between you and Uncle Xu, and I am just the same as Sister Yaxuan. Gu Yue also felt that this title was a little strange, so she took the opportunity to say.
"Haha! Alright then, let's call each other, don't get in the way, just know who's who. Jacob was unimpressed, and said heartily.
"Okay, so be it. Let's eat first, Xiaoyue, you haven't eaten in a coma for the past few days, you must be hungry now, come and eat quickly, and talk about something else when you're full. Xu Qing also doesn't care about a title, for him, it's better for Gu Yue to wake up now than anything else, don't say that Gu Yue calls grandpa, even if he lets himself call grandpa, Xu Qing won't care about it now.
The next few people had dinner together, and Jacob was surprised by Gu Yue again. I saw that Gu Yue's meal was surprisingly large, and after several people were full, they watched Gu Yue eat and take care of him, but when he ate, he ate all the meals of the three of them for seven days, and the meals eaten by one person could be the sum of the meals eaten by the three of them for seven days, which stunned everyone. Even in the middle of Gu Yue's meal, Yaxuan went to cook two new meals before he could eat alone, which shows how big Gu Yue's meal is.
After eating, Gu Yue was full of energy, and his body also regained his strength, so he helped clean up together. Jacob next to him couldn't help but say: "Good boy, the amount of food is really large, if I continue like this, I won't have enough food for the winter this year, haha!"
Gu Yue was also a little embarrassed, although he was very hungry after three days of coma, he shouldn't eat so much, usually his meal is very ordinary, this time he woke up and didn't know why he kept feeling hungry, he kept eating and just couldn't eat, and in the end he was a little embarrassed to eat, so he stopped, but Gu Yue felt that he could still eat food now, and he couldn't help but be a little embarrassed when he thought of this, so he quickly found an excuse to go back to the house and lie down.
