Chapter 297: Stupid Brat VS Fierce Old Fool

When Yu Gangan walked back inside, she saw the maid cleaning up a teacup that Elder Jiang had broken.

The old man sat on the sofa, not looking too pleased. It was clear that he was trying to control his temper.

Jiang Qi heard the sound and had run down to talk to the old man.

She spoke softly and lightly, making the old man feel a little better.

Jiang Qi didn’t know what happened. After seeing the old man calm down, she quietly sent Fang Zhihan away.

Elder Jiang’s gaze fell on Yu Gangan and he frowned slightly, “Hurry here and check my pulse.”

The old man was really fierce. Yu Gangan walked over and sat down beside him.

She raised her eyebrows with a slight smile and said, “Seeing your energy, I don’t think I need to check your pulse to confirm your condition. You won’t have trouble living another 1000-10,000 years.”

Earlier, when he yelled at Jiang Baian, he was indeed loud like a siren. But, based on his physical fitness, he had simply lost his temper.

The numbers 1000-10000, immediately made the old man think of a saying: ‘A turtle lives to 1000, a tortoise lives to 10,000’. ¹

He glared at Yu Gangan, “Just because I let you be with my grandson, did you think you could act presumptuously? If I wasn’t worried about him going down the wrong path and starting some BL ¹ romance, I would never agree to it.”

Yu Gangan looked at him in surprise, “You know what BL is?”

When she first heard this term, she didn’t quite understand what it meant. Song Chabai was the one that explained it to her…

Elder Jiang didn’t know how to respond, so he said furiously, “Hurry and finish your consultation so you can leave. You’re so annoying.”

Yu Gangan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry: “…”

While she helped Elder Jiang check his pulse, she muttered quietly, “I won’t see you tomorrow, you fierce old fool.”

But, Elder Jiang didn’t hear her clearly, “What did you say, you stupid brat?”

Yu Gangan grinned, “I said you’re handsome.”

Elder Jiang: “…”

…

Elder Jiang’s illness recovered well and he needed to recuperate slowly.

Before Yu Gangan left, Jiang Qi pulled her into her room and asked about the old man’s condition anxiously.

Yu Gangan reassured her, “He is recovering well, you don’t need to worry. You can stop feeding him the medicine after another two doses. After that, we can help him recuperate with a herbal diet.”

Jiang Qi was surprised, “We can stop after two more doses? Really?”

He was so sick before, shouldn’t he, at least, take medicine for another 10-14 days?

“Take less medicine. Don’t assume that medicine is the complete answer. His body needs to be nourished, especially his stomach. Later, I will send you some herbal recipes. Food is better than medicine.”

After a pause, Yu Gangan added, “Didn’t I tell you last time that the human body controls emotions and desires? The heart controls happiness, the liver controls anger, the lungs control sadness, the spleen controls yearning, and the kidneys control fear. Excessive happiness impairs the heart, excessive anger impairs the liver, excessive sadness impairs the lungs, excessive yearning impairs the spleen, and excessive fear impairs the kidneys.”

Jiang Qi immediately understood what Yu Gangan meant, “Previously, Elder Huang had said that not only was grandfather’s stomach unwell, his spleen was even worse. The spleen controls yearning and excessive yearning impairs the spleen, so grandfather…”

“In addition to just coming out of surgery and being irritable, he had excessive yearning,” Yu Gangan explained. “A doctor can cure a physical illness, but not an emotional one. This is something that requires care from family.”

A bitter smile appeared on Jiang Qi’s face. She lowered her head and said, “My father’s sudden death left a huge impact on grandfather. He fainted and was resuscitated from a heart attack. He then stayed two days in the ICU before he recovered.”
