Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 607: Chapter 364: Nursing Home (Part 2)

”I wasn’t eating, I was just looking, and I was going to put it back after.” The old lady hurriedly explained.

”Okay, I believe you were just looking.” Luo Ye’s tone shifted: ”However, you’re not even allowed to look in the future, got it?”

The old lady quickly nodded her head in agreement: ”Okay, okay, I’ll listen to Ye’er.”

”Ye’er, you’re finally here, I’ve missed you.” Another old lady came over to greet her, it was the old lady from the bed next to Mrs. Miao’s when she was hospitalized. It was Qu Yue who had sent someone to force that gluttonous daughter-in-law to bring her here.

Luo Ye greeted everyone along the way, touring each room with Luo Lianxing Nongyao, halfway through, they encountered Qu Yue, Miaomiao, Liu Xing, and others.

Seeing Luo Ye, Miaomiao looked like she had seen a savior: ”Luoluo, you’re here, hurry, hurry, Grandpa Li and Grandpa Ma are quarreling again, nobody can calm them down, it’s driving us crazy.”

Luo Ye touched her forehead, speechless: ”Again because of Grandpa Ma taking back a move in chess?”

”Yes, Grandpa Ma took back a chess move while Grandpa Li wasn’t paying attention, and Grandpa Li caught him. They weren’t originally upset, but as they talked, they dredged up old war stories, and it just escalated into a bigger fight.” Miaomiao explained anxiously.

”These two old gents, been at it their whole lives, and now in their old age continue the rivalry in the nursing home, you’ve got to hand it to them.” As Luo Ye spoke, she quickened her pace to the activity room where the two old gents were quarreling red-faced, surrounded by a group trying to break up the fight.

”Grandpa Ma! Grandpa Li!” Luo Ye called out loudly as she approached, the two feuding old men quickly shut their mouths, pretending nothing happened: ”Ye’er is here?”

”Yes, if I hadn’t come, were you planning to bring the roof down?” Luo Ye took their hands and pushed them together: ”Shake hands and make peace, come on.”

”Elder Ma, I was wrong, I shouldn’t have taken that chess move back!”

”Elder Li, I was wrong too, I shouldn’t have yelled at you over a chess piece!”

After they both spoke in unison, Elder Ma looked eagerly at Luo Ye: ”Ye’er, I’ve admitted my wrongs, don’t kick me out, okay?”

”Alright, this must not happen again.” Luo Ye humphed irritably: ”This really is the last time, if you dare to do this again, I’ll throw you both into the river to feed the fish!”

”Okay, throw Elder Ma in first!”

”Throw Elder Li in first!”

”Hmm?” Luo Ye turned back and glared at the two.

”No, no, we were just kidding.” The two old men laughed together, holding each other’s hands tightly, looking like the best of buddies.

”If you don’t behave, you won’t get any hotpot tonight!” Luo Ye glared fiercely at them and turned to leave, the two old men poked each other playfully behind her back, and Luo Ye caught it with a corner of her eye, her lips curving into a smile, she suddenly turned back: ”What are you doing?”

Elder Ma grinned sheepishly: ”Ye’er, it’s like this, Elder Li said his back was itchy, so I scratched it for him, and then I got itchy too, so I had him scratch me as well.”

”Exactly, it’s not so itchy anymore.” Elder Li chimed in, withdrawing his hand.

After leaving the room, Luo Lian couldn’t help but laugh: ”Old kids, old kids indeed, definitely on point, but it’s also quite fun.”

Luo Ye nodded: ”Yes, old folks are actually quite interesting, but working in a nursing home requires patience. The elderly have different personalities and temperaments, some get upset over the tiniest things, and that’s when the staff need to pay attention and intervene timely.

However, most elderly are cheerful and easy to get along with. From them, you can learn many things you can’t get from the classroom. After all, a lifetime of experience can’t be covered by textbooks.

Like those two old men who were just quarreling, they are not simple, having participated in the Long March, the civil war, and during that special era, they used their power to save some real intellectuals.

Several of our country’s top scientists owe their safety to these two gentlemen. It’s just that the two old men have been competitors since their youth, arguing and quarreling for a lifetime.

But they can’t live without each other. Normally, Elder Ma wouldn’t need to come here because he has children, but to stay with Elder Li, he refused his children’s requests and insisted on moving to the nursing home. Can you imagine looking at them just now?”

”Unimaginable.” Luo Lian gave genuine praise: ”Luoluo, you really are dedicated. There are so many elderly in the nursing home, and you remember all their names, something that takes more than just good memory, it shows you truly care and like them.”

”I do like them, sincerely.” Luo Ye smiled: ”It’s strange why those two old men listen to me, right? When I first came, they were also fighting over chess.

I tried to persuade them and they wouldn’t listen. I was so annoyed by their quarreling that when I saw a fly on the table, I killed it with a needle.

Just because of that small trick, the two old men changed their attitudes instantly. Whatever I say now, they listen. They’re not afraid of me, they respect talent.

With their backgrounds, any veterans’ sanatorium would fight to have them, but they chose to come here. At first, they might have come with doubts and curiosity.

Later, they truly grew fond of this place. As for my threats to kick them out, it’s just a joke, and they know it well, just playing along to amuse me, how can you not like such elderly?”

The phone on the table suddenly rang. Qu Yue picked it up and after listening for a while, she turned to Luo Ye: ”Luoluo, the Male Emperor won’t come over tonight, the General Manager of Furma has died, and he has to assist their family with some matters.”
