Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder's Comeback in the Era Tales

Chapter 650: Chapter 650: The Real and Fake Daughters 43

Yuan Chun attended an adult university, studying traditional Chinese medicine.

After receiving her diploma, Yuan Chun didn’t go out to find a job. Instead, she tidied up an empty room in the Cao Family courtyard house and renovated it into a medical research room.

Once she developed a prescription, she sold it to the Chen Family’s pharmaceutical factory.

She donated half of the share she earned to help the patients who couldn’t afford medical treatment, thus accumulating Merit Points for herself.

Grandpa Cao retired after she graduated and spent his time at home enjoying his grandchildren.

Yuan Chun gave birth to a pair of twins, a boy and a girl, which made Grandpa Cao so delighted that he couldn’t keep his mouth closed all day. He carried one child with a guard every day, showing them off to his old buddies, who got so pissed they stopped asking him to play chess.

Grandpa Cao originally thought that since his grandson had a job, the granddaughter-in-law could only have one child. But the granddaughter-in-law was exceptional; she conceived twins and gave him a pair of great-grandchildren.

A boy and a girl in one birth.

For this, Grandpa Cao rewarded Yuan Chun with a hundred thousand yuan.

This amount was almost one-third of Grandpa Cao’s entire savings.

The Cao Family had a lot of real estate, but not much cash. Grandpa Cao lived an honest and upright life, never corrupt, and saved this money painstakingly from his salary.

The salaries and compensations earned by his two deceased uncles when they were alive were also kept by Grandpa Cao, but the amount was not much, only ten or twenty thousand yuan.

”Grandpa, I’ve developed a new medicinal dish. If you eat it every day, it will prolong your life, ensuring you stay healthy and live to 120 years old.”

Yuan Chun walked out of the pharmacy excitedly, holding a piece of paper.

Grandpa Cao smiled and said, ”Then I would become an old monster. Grandpa would be delighted to live to eighty; there’s no need to live that long.”

If he lived too long, he would worry that his late wife might grow impatient waiting for him and be reborn first, leaving him behind.

What if, when he went down, he couldn’t find his wife?

If it weren’t for his pity for his little grandson, who had only him as a relative, and that his death would make it impossible for the grandson to get by, he would have long wanted to die.

Now, he’s worried that if he dies, his granddaughter-in-law won’t be able to take care of the pair of great-grandchildren alone. He wants to help her raise the children a bit more.

Once the great-grandchildren start school, he’ll go below to find his wife.

”Grandpa, you must live to be 120. Xiao Wu and I only have you as our elder. You must remain healthy and live to 120 to be our support. Without your guidance, Xiao Wu and I won’t know what to do with family interactions and whatnot.”

Yuan Chun had long noticed that Grandpa Cao harbored a wish to die.

She tried everything to give Grandpa Cao a reason to live. Even someone like her, skilled in handling people, pretended to be clueless, relying on Grandpa for everything.

This made Grandpa Cao believe that the Cao Family couldn’t do without him.

But Grandpa Cao... sigh...

”Host, you have already defied destiny and helped extend Grandpa Cao’s life by several years. You should be satisfied,” said 007.

Yuan Chun sighed, ”Grandpa Cao is such a good person. It’s rare to meet such a wonderful elder. I just want him to live a few more years. Alas, Grandpa Cao and Granny Cao must have had a very deep relationship.”

”Indeed. Back then, Granny Cao loved Grandpa Cao immensely. Otherwise, how would a young lady from a wealthy family accompany a poor boy to fight in wars and endure hardships, even donating more than half of her dowry converted into gold?”
