When Jing You and Lu Xian stepped into Jiang's house, the first dish was just served.

"Here comes the kids! Sit down first, and the other dishes will be ready soon."

Papa Jiang came out wearing an apron, looking like a gentle cook.

The daughter-in-law of Sister Zhao's family is confinement and has to go back to help take care of her. During this time, she can no longer cook for the Jiang family.

Fortunately, now that there is one more person at home, there is no need for a nanny to watch over the whole day, so a new nurse was hired to give Mother Jiang a nursing massage at a fixed time, and the task of cooking fell on Jiang Dong.

Jiang Dong readily accepted the new role.Before he took office as mayor, he would cook for his wife from time to time, but then the business became more and more busy, and the family lost many opportunities to eat together.

"Uncle and aunt are bothering you." Lu Xian politely bowed to the host.

Jing You glanced sideways at Lu Xian's movements, thought for a moment, and then bowed politely: "Mom and Dad are bothering you."

"..."

Lu Xian tilted her head and said in a disgusted tone, "Do you have some brain problems?"

Jing You: "Why are you scolding me all of a sudden?"

Lu Xian: "You should say 'I'm home'."

Jing You frowned: "Why do you have to say 'I'm home' when you go home? I never go to my own home without extra effort."

Lu Xian: "Then why did you say 'excuse me'?"

Jingyou: "Grandma said that I should be respectful in front of my fiancée's parents, even if I put on a show. Although I don't think it's necessary, Jiang Shengyan told me to listen to grandma."

Lu Xian raised her eyebrows: "Your way of thinking about problems is always eye-catching."

Jingyou: "Thank you for the compliment."

Lu Xian: "I don't really want to praise you, I'm just pretending."

When Mother Jiang heard the conversation between the two, the corners of her lips curled up.

The two kids are really interesting.

Although Lu Xian and Jing You are adults, in the eyes of Jiang's father and Jiang's mother, those who are of the same generation as their daughter are still children, and they are all very cute.

"Auntie, long time no see, do you miss me?" Lu Xian raised a hand and waved at Mother Jiang like a beckoning cat.

"Think!" Mother Jiang smiled even more.

Jing You frowned slightly, with an inexplicable sense of crisis.

Dr. Lu seems to be very good at pleasing elders, and he could always make grandma happy in the past.

Lu Xian tapped Mother Jiang's knee lightly with her hand, and asked, "Auntie, do you insist on massaging your knees according to the technique I taught you?"

Mother Jiang smiled and said, "I'm doing it every day, and I feel much more relaxed than before."

Lu Xian: "Auntie, what did you say against your will? That massage doesn't have any effect of relaxing meridians and activating collaterals. It can only stimulate the superficial muscles of the legs, without feeling any changes."

Mother Jiang: "..."

This is very embarrassing.

Lu Xian gave Jiang's mother a mysterious smile: "Guess what gift I brought you?"

Mother Jiang showed curiosity: "You still brought a gift?"

Lu Xian took out a massager-like thing from the big pocket of his white coat, but the shape was a bit strange, it looked like an adult toy, and it was easy to cause unnecessary misunderstandings.

Mother Jiang stared at the things in Lu Xian's hands, thought for a moment, and said, "At my age... I don't really need it."

"Auntie is really humorous and funny."

Lu Xian turned on the switch of the massager, and the two balls at one end rotated, making a "buzzing" sound.

"It might hurt a little." Lu Xian only reminded her, and quickly put the massager on Mother Jiang's lap.

Mother Jiang was caught off guard and let out a scream.

More than just a little pain, the knee seemed to be pierced by thousands of steel needles at the same time, and those steel needles went down the knee and penetrated into the calf, which was dozens of times more painful than cramps.

Although Mama Jiang held back and didn't cry out, there was a fine layer of sweat on her forehead.

Just now, when Papa Jiang heard the screams outside, he put down the spatula and ran out of the kitchen. Although he didn't know what the girl who came with Jing You was doing, he didn't bother him.

His face was full of worry and distress.

After 10 minutes, Lu Xian turned off the power of the instrument.

Mother Jiang clutched the armrest of the wheelchair tightly with both hands, panting, her hair was wet with sweat.

It was the first time for Jing You to see such a scene of a person suffering so much pain, and he felt a little dazed.

Lu Xian breathed a sigh of relief.

"This little thing is made to match the shape of my aunt's legs. Once a day in the future, I believe it will get along well with my aunt."

"Once a day!" Mother Jiang wailed weakly.

Father Jiang quickly took a towel and came over to wipe Mother Jiang's face.

He stood behind Mother Jiang and asked hesitantly, "Excuse me, what were you doing just now?"

He heard his wife briefly introduce Lu Xian before, saying that he is a doctor of biology and is now working on a confidential project in Jingteng Group.

Moreover, he had a natural sense of trust in this child, and subconsciously felt that the child was helping his wife.

"An...experiment." Lu Xian put the instrument on the table, with no special expression on his face, "The meaning of the experiment is that it may succeed or it may fail; it may appear to be successful, but there are side effects that cannot be seen now. .”

Father Jiang immediately understood the meaning of this sentence, and asked, "We have to choose whether to accept the experiment, right?"

"Uncle is so smart, even smarter than this guy!" Lu Xian said, standing up and patting the back of Jing You's head.

???

Jing You had question marks all over his face.

I don't understand why I'm being attacked.

"The best result..." Father Jiang hesitated for a while, before asking, "What is it?"

"It is an honor to have your trust."

Lu Xian patted Jing You on the back of the head again, "Maybe we can be like her."

Jing You gritted his teeth and endured it.

What this means is... to be able to walk like a normal person.

is it possible?

A different brilliance burst out of Jiang's mother's eyes in an instant.

Although his complexion was pale and covered with a layer of sweat, he looked much brighter and more charming than usual.

"Is the possibility... high?" Papa Jiang didn't have too high expectations.

After he came out, he checked a lot of information. For people who can't walk, the most advanced medical methods are artificially controlled prosthetics, or auxiliary equipment for people with disabled legs and feet, and the wearing time should not be too long.

In the case of my wife, whose lower limbs are basically necrotic, there are external auxiliary devices, but the technology is still immature and cannot be controlled by the brain. At most, it is a "wheelchair" that can help the patient stand up.

"Actually, I can't guarantee this." Lu Xian's face was unprecedentedly serious, "I don't want to make you two have too much expectation, but I don't want to hide from you that I am currently researching such a technology. After the test just now, Auntie's legs still respond to pain, which is very in line with the test criteria. To be honest, many people do not have such conditions, and Auntie is the lucky one."

After a pause for a few seconds, Lu Xian continued: "This is a choice between 0 and 1. If you don't try, you can continue your current life. If you try... maybe there is a chance to stand up—a chance to stand up by implanting electronic nerves.

At the current laboratory stage, the electronic nerve can connect to the central nervous system. If such a connection can be realized inside the human body, it will not need any auxiliary equipment to achieve free standing.

But that's the best outcome, not the only one. "

There was a long silence in the room.

The air is almost frozen.

for a long time.

Father Jiang looked down at his wife, and his broad palm rested on the painful knee.

"If you want to seize that first chance, no matter what the consequences are, I can bear it. You don't have to consider my feelings. As for your daughter...she will understand. If you don't regret giving up at the last moment of your life With such an opportunity, I am willing to be your crutch all the time, to take care of you and take care of you."

"Such a choice... Even my husband has no right to interfere with your decision."

Lu Xian said: "I haven't told Mr. Jiang about this, because after this choice, there will be a long wait, and it may even be impossible to move forward in ten or twenty years. Even if it is a biological child, I am afraid that they will not understand the patient. True mood. If we choose to accept the experiment, we need to sign a non-disclosure agreement to prevent the experiment from being suspended due to any unexpected circumstances."

Although the word "agreement" sounds cold, it is a city wall that can protect everyone at critical moments.

Mother Jiang looked at her husband, then at Lu Xian.

"I... think about it carefully." Mother Jiang said.

Lu Xian moved her nose: "Is something burnt?"

"My food!" Papa Jiang gasped and hurried into the kitchen.

It is completely different from the gentle and refined image before.

"Xiao Jingyou push Mama Jiang to go back and change clothes." After Lu Xian finished speaking, her eyes were slightly suspicious, "Can you?"

"Of course I can!" Jing You grabbed the handle of the wheelchair and pushed Mother Jiang back to the bedroom.

Unknowingly, Jing You has slowly learned how to take care of others.

Lu Xian moved his wrist, washed his hands, and began to sweep the fruits on the coffee table, without any formality or politeness.

The night was gloomy.

In the community, the lights in the windows of the residents dimmed and went out one after another.

It's time to sleep.

got windy.

The cold wind whistled and made a "woo-woo" sound, and the dry branches swayed, as if they would fall down at any time.

Father Jiang came in with a wooden basin and put it at Mother Jiang's feet.

"Honey, wash your feet." He naturally sat down on the small bench beside the bed.

"Husband, I..." Jiang's mother choked her throat, unable to speak.

Father Jiang reached out to check the temperature of the water, lifted Mother Jiang's feet into the basin, and asked warmly, "You want to try it, don't you?"

Mother Jiang nodded.

She knows that her husband doesn't dislike her now, and she won't complain, but what about five, ten, or twenty years?

Asking her husband to wash her feet every day made her feel uncomfortable.

Maybe if others know about it, they will praise him: "What a loving husband."

But this kind of life is too exhausting after all.

Participating in an experiment that has a slim chance of success may cause even more pain.

It's really hard to choose, and it's hard to let go.

Father Jiang stuck the tiger's mouth on Mother Jiang's patella, which is the knee position, and exerted force with his thumb and forefinger to massage in a circular motion. The technique looked impressive.

Seeing that her husband did not speak, Mother Jiang asked, "What do you think?"

"Didn't I say it before eating, I fully respect your opinion on this matter, if you want to try, let's try."

Father Jiang knew what choice his wife would make from the moment he heard Lu Xian talk about the experiment.

His wife, Han Qiuxi, is an extremely talented dancer, even if there is only a one in a billion chance to stand up, she will not give up.

But making a new attempt means that the situation may be worse, and you will have to face the situation in the future, which may be more serious than sitting in a wheelchair.

As a wife and a mother, it is impossible to completely ignore the family.

"Xiao Lu said that Yan Yan didn't know about it yet, do we really want to hide it from her?" Mother Jiang said.

"My daughter has grown up. She has her own life. What's the matter with letting the bird out and tying a rope to her feet?" Papa Jiang laughed.

Said, "You don't know about your daughter, she loves to worry all day long, don't tell her about anything that doesn't come out of her horoscope."

"What if she blames me in the future?" Mother Jiang was still worried.

Papa Jiang: "She wouldn't run away from home, would she? If it's really so strange, we can only live together as an old couple."

Mother Jiang: "Who is the old couple with you! I'm still young!"

Papa Jiang: "Tsk tsk, I should be worried. What if you stand up in the future and go out to dance in the square and get spotted by other old men?"

Mother Jiang: "I can only be seen by the old man?"

Papa Jiang: "What else, is it called Xiao Xianrou now? I remember what other little wolf dogs? They are all very dangerous."

Mother Jiang nodded: "If I can really go out and dance in the square, I won't have to chew your old bacon raw."

"Old bacon? Do I have such sharp teeth?" Papa Jiang raised his voice, "How can I count as a piece of frozen fresh pork?"

Mother Jiang reached out and pinched Father Jiang's face, "Don't mention it, your skin is pretty good, and you can attract many little girls to like you even if you go for a walk."

Papa Jiang grasped Mama Jiang's hand, put it to his lips and kissed it.

"It's enough to recruit you, a little girl."

"It's not stinky! It's just a greasy middle-aged uncle!" Mother Jiang said, but her face turned into a shy red apple, like a little girl.

Papa Jiang brushed his wife's broken hair behind her ears, and stroked her cheek with rough palms, "You are still so beautiful, just like the first time I saw you, like a white swan."

Mama Jiang's eyes were moist.

A few seconds later, she asked with a stiff face, "You just touched my feet with your hand, and now you put it on my face again, what do you mean?"

Papa Jiang blinked: "That's your foot too, and it's not mine."

Mother Jiang: "How dare you touch my face after touching your own feet?"

Papa Jiang: "You are a bit unreasonable! Can't I touch your face after touching your feet? Do you despise me?"

Mother Jiang: "So you just want to touch my face with the hand that touched my feet?"

"Unreasonable!" Papa Jiang snorted coldly, "The water is getting cold, I'm going to pour it."

After all, he took the basin and went out.

Seeing the person disappearing from view, Mother Jiang quickly took out two tissues to dry up the tears in her eyes.

If you are really old, you will be easily moved when you hear some sweet words!

After Jiang's father poured the water, he didn't go out of the toilet immediately.

He closed the lid of the toilet, sat on it, covered his face with his hands, and drops of water slipped between his fingers.

Not long after, the shoulders of this resolute man who was always smiling trembled more and more, and there was a choking sound in his throat.

The ancients said that a man does not flick his tears lightly.

Just not to the heartbreak.

Jiang Dong's tears were both pity and guilt.

After all, his wife's leg was injured because of him.

Even if he puts this aside, every time he sees his wife's helpless appearance, his heart feels like a knife, and he wants to bear all this for the love of his life.

I am a rough guy, if I can't leave, I can't leave.

She is the proudest princess on the dance floor, and her current life is too cruel.

"Dad, Mom, how have you been these two days?"

Jiang Shengyan was making a video call to his father.

Papa Jiang: "Didn't you just leave? What about your mother and I?"

Jiang Sheng said: "I just left and you don't want to see me?"

Father Jiang: "You are almost 30, why do you keep calling me?"

Jiang Sheng said: "..." Is there anyone who poked his own daughter with a knife like this?

Papa Jiang: "Your mother called someone's name at me today, and I'm in a cold war with her!"

Jiang Shengyan sighed: "Then is it convenient for you to ask your mother to come over and have a word with me? I miss her."

"Co-author, you didn't think about me!" Papa Jiang was jealous, "Then why are you calling my phone?"

Jiang Sheng said: "Isn't it convenient to call your mobile phone!"

Papa Jiang: "So you really miss me?"

"Think about it!" Jiang Sheng said, "Can I call my mother now?"

Papa Jiang: "..." Perfunctory!

"Mr. Jiang, there is a lady surnamed Huo who wants to see you."

Other people's voices can be heard over the video.

"Go ahead, I'll call you after my cold war with your mother." Father Jiang waved his hand and hung up the video.

Jiang Sheng's "goodbye" was stuck in the middle of his mouth, and he swallowed it back.

He smiled helplessly and turned to talk to the secretary.

In the video, Mother Jiang controls the wheelchair.

"I seem to hear my daughter's voice."

Papa Jiang: "You heard wrong."

Mother Jiang: "Can I hear my daughter's voice wrong?"

Papa Jiang: "You still called my name wrong this morning! I knew you still missed your tablemate."

Mother Jiang: "When I dreamed about going to school last night, I yelled, why are you so petty now!"

"I'm in a cold war with you, don't talk to me!" Father Jiang entered the study with his mobile phone.

Mother Jiang murmured softly: "Like young people who are arrogant and say that they are not little princesses!"

The author has something to say:

-Spoof Little Theater-

Papa Jiang: Hey, you called someone else's name to me!

Mother Jiang: No more in the future, you are my little princess.

Jiang Huihui: Mom and Dad, I want to eat rabbits.
