Reborn in the 1980s: Recapture My Devoted Husband-Chapter 866 - 751: Old Mei’s Illegitimate Child_3

This really made her godfather and father-in-law feel terribly sorry for her.

Even Mr. Mei, seeing that foot, visibly shuddered.

"Doctor, when will my mom wake up?" Mei Shuqing quickly asked.

"She should wake up soon. However, she has anesthesia on her foot, so she won’t feel pain, but she also shouldn’t exert herself or move around recklessly."

"Understood, understood. We’ll be careful."

"The old lady just finished surgery, try to have her eat lightly."

The doctor carefully gave some instructions before leaving.

The whole family was in a relatively small hospital room and waited for more than an hour before Old Mrs. Mei woke up.

After waking up, she was a bit confused.

"Mom."

"Grandma."

"Mom, you’re awake."

"What are you doing, don’t touch me, it hurts," Old Mrs. Mei, upon waking up, was most agitated by her two sons and Mei Langchi.

The godfather saw Old Mrs. Mei wake up, quickly went up to hold her hand and asked, only to be frowned and glared at by Old Mrs. Mei, who pulled his hand away.

Mei Shuqing quickly let go and wasn’t too concerned, his main worry now was whether the old lady was still feeling uncomfortable anywhere.

"Mom, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere else?"

"I feel uncomfortable everywhere, my whole body feels awful," Old Mrs. Mei frowned, then turned to ask while looking at him, "Who are you?"

That one sentence left everyone in the room stunned, with the first reaction being that the old lady had lost her memory.

Frightened, Mei Shuqing quickly said, "Mom, I’m Shuqing, don’t you remember me?"

"Mom, I’m Shuping, what’s going on?"

Old Mrs. Mei realized, "Shuping and Shuqing, what are you doing, blocking my view, step aside a bit."

Seeing that Old Mrs. Mei recognized them, everyone in the room finally relaxed and breathed a sigh of relief.

But they also felt that the old lady’s expression was somewhat abnormal. "Quickly call the doctor to come and take a look."

When Mei Langchi called the doctor to come and do some examining, only then did everyone feel at ease.

The doctor said, "The elderly are of advanced age and have been a bit frightened. It’s very normal for there to be some mental instability right after waking up. She’s a bit confused now, but she’ll gradually recover in two days. There’s no need to worry, your family members are still known to her, it’s just that her memories are a bit jumbled."

Upon hearing it’s only temporary, the family also relaxed.

After the doctor left, Old Mei looked at his old wife and sighed deeply.

Then he looked at the people in the room and said, "Your mom is fine now, there’s no need for all of you to watch over her day and night. Taking care of your mom won’t be a one or two-day task. How about this, Xiao Zhi, you should hire a caregiver, that seems more appropriate. Shuping and Shuqing have to be at the department during the day and can’t stay up all night. You and Xiao Qian can manage for a day or two, but in the long run, your health can’t take it. Better to hire a caregiver."

"Dad, mom needs meticulous care these days. There’s no caregiver who can take care of her as well as family members can. For these couple of days, let’s have me and my sister-in-law take care of mom. Besides, there are also Ah Qing and Xiao Wan, the juniors, right, sister-in-law?" Xie Lingzhi has her own plans.

Xie Lingzhi knows this sister-in-law always has been not close with the mother-in-law, not because of the early years’ suppression by the old lady, leaving some barriers.

So, this sister-in-law won’t take care of the old lady as attentively as she would. The old lady being injured is an opportunity to demonstrate her filial piety, and by taking good care of the old lady, she believes in time, the old lady and Mr. Mei won’t have hearts of stone.

After all these years, serving them day and night, they’re already quite old, and there won’t be many years left. She might as well play the part of a filial daughter-in-law to the end. In the future, she can strive for some benefits for her son.

Besides, her efforts all these years haven’t been for nothing. Look, from a young age to now, no matter how outstanding the second daughter’s son is, in the end, aren’t the old lady and Mr. Mei still fond of her son?

As she sees it, Liang Qian is just pointless.

"We’ll listen to sister-in-law," Liang Qian responded faintly, without objection. Xie Lingzhi guessed right, she wouldn’t put effort into taking care of this mother-in-law.

Of course, she’s not a wicked daughter-in-law either. Even though the old lady can be excessive at times, she doesn’t bother with her. What a daughter-in-law should do, she won’t let others talk behind her back.

"I’ll go home later to make some porridge for mom first and bring some meals for sister-in-law."

"Okay. Thank you, sister-in-law." Cooking in this hot summer, running errands, is indeed more exhausting than sitting in the room.

Old Mrs. Mei woke up for a while and then fell into a drowsy sleep again. Having just had surgery, the doctor didn’t allow the fans to be turned on. In this hot weather, adults can endure it, but children can’t.
