As Shen Siyuan spoke, Lu Jiawang shifted his gaze to Dou Dou. With benevolent eyes, he murmured, "Good child, good child, thank you for remembering our Xiao Lu." He reached out to touch Dou Dou’s head, but then glanced at his own gaunt and rough hand, and retracted it. Such a clean, cute little girl , how could someone like him touch her. Dou Dou didn’t mind, she was just looking up, trying to find similarities between this old man and Lu Zimo. But after looking left and right, she didn’t find any similarities. This made her quite puzzled. Is this old man really Lu Zimo’s grandfather? Lu Jiawang was also quite puzzled, "How did you know our Xiao Lu? I haven’t heard him mention it before." Before Dou Dou could answer, Shen Siyuan jumped in, "The boss selling Longjiang Pig Foot Rice at the street corner is my cousin. Dou Dou often goes there and met your Lu Zimo. That’s how they know each other. My cousin has been puzzled for a long time not seeing your Zimo, but didn’t expect something to happen..." Upon hearing this, Lu Jiawang was enlightened and completely believed it. Although the boss of the Pig Foot Rice looks fierce, he is indeed a good person, often treating their Lu Zimo to Pig Foot Rice. He had heard his wife talk about it many times, and before he had his wife bring Lu Zimo to deliver the vegetables he picked from the countryside to him. "Thank you, truly a good person, grateful you all remember our Xiao Lu..." Lu Jiawang was somewhat tearful. "Sir, please take care of yourself, don’t be too sad, you should hurry to get well." Shen Siyuan comforted. Lu Jiawang shook his head upon hearing this, revealing a trace of relief. "Everyone has their fate, I fear my illness cannot be cured, it’s just a waste of money." It seems he himself has little hope for his illness. "What illness do you have, sir?" Shen Siyuan asked. "Stomach cancer." Lu Jiawang said. Alright, if it were other illnesses, Shen Siyuan might be able to help a bit, but stomach cancer, he really couldn’t cure it. His "Leg Stretching Eye Bulging Pill" is indeed effective, can replenish human vitality, but it also rejuvenates cancer cells, accelerating the speed of cancer, since cancer cells are also part of the body. "What did the doctor say? Early stage or late stage, can it be operated on?" Shen Siyuan continued to inquire. "What operation, medication will do." Lu Jiawang said, smiling. Shen Siyuan knew that it was probably not so simple. Many old people have this habit of downplaying their illness before the young ones, acting as if it didn’t matter, but in reality, it’s probably very severe. Shen Siyuan didn’t continue to probe, instead said, "I have a friend who works in a charity organization, with your family’s situation, you can apply for some charity aid. I’ll talk to him when I get back and let him help you apply." "No, no need for such trouble." Lu Jiawang responded, his expression was slightly excited yet somewhat embarrassed. "It’s no trouble, this is his job." said Shen Siyuan. Lu Jiawang wanted to say more, but Shen Siyuan interrupted him directly, "Your family’s situation is completely within the scope of aid, and my friend specializes in this work, helping someone is just helping, and one more wouldn’t make a difference." "Can it really be?" Lu Jiawang was somewhat incredulous. "Of course, tomorrow I’ll have him contact you." said Shen Siyuan. "Then... then that’s really too thank you, sorry for causing trouble." Lu Jiawang said gratefully. In fact, he was not that keen on aid or anything, he was clear about his condition, whether dead or alive, it actually made no difference to him, he was not afraid of death at all. But he couldn’t stop worrying about Lu Zimo’s grandma, he wanted to alleviate some of her burden, he felt quite guilty about burdening her. "Not a trouble, let’s leave it at that for now." Shen Siyuan didn’t stay long in the hospital, after understanding some situations, he took Taozi and the others and left, of course, Lu Zimo stayed behind. After becoming a Fan Soul, he knew how to find Shen Siyuan, the Banner Master. After Shen Siyuan and his group left, the patient in the bed near the door asked, "Old Lu, were those just now your family relatives?"

"No, just two kind-hearted people, heard about my situation and came to visit me." Lu Jiawang replied. "I think so too, but they really don’t understand human etiquette, coming empty-handed, couldn’t even buy a fruit basket." said a patient’s family member. "Meeting by chance, how can you expect anything from them." said Lu Jiawang. "That’s the truth, but since they came to see you, it’s unjustified to not bring anything." "Exactly, even if they didn’t buy anything, they could have left two hundred bucks before leaving, stingy rich folks." "Who wouldn’t say, looking at the clothes that man and woman were wearing, probably each piece costs thousands, especially that woman, the necklace she’s wearing is worth a fortune, not even spare two hundred bucks..." "Don’t you say, that man and woman, one is handsome and the other is beautiful, rare to see such an outstandingly good-looking and graceful pair like them..." As the conversation went on, it veered off track, turning into a speculation of Shen Siyuan and Taozi’s identity. Suddenly one of them brought up the matter of aid, given the small size of the ward, what Shen Siyuan said earlier naturally was heard by them. "Looking at that man’s bearing, his family should be in the government, saying he would aid Mr. Lu, probably true, if that’s so, Mr. Lu, you can consider your hard times over..." "Forget it, someone who can’t spare two hundred bucks, you actually believe him? Probably just talk..." "Old Lu, if you really get aid, can you say something for me too, get me some aid, my illness is somewhat similar to yours, my family is drained..." Lu Jiawang just listened with a smile, not refuting them. As for whether Shen Siyuan would do what he said, while he looked forward to it somewhat, it was just a look forward after all. The fact that they came to visit him already made him quite happy. And Lu Zimo, staying by his grandpa’s side, hearing them defame Shen Siyuan, was so angry he almost revealed himself to argue with them. How could the Banner Master deceive him? The Banner Master said he would help him, certainly, he would, tomorrow someone will come see grandpa, and grandpa and grandma won’t have to worry about not having money for treatment anymore. The Banner Master also said that grandma no longer needs to pick up bottles, can go to a nursing home, just eating, exercising, chit-chatting every day, like other old grannies, happy and enjoying old age. Lu Zimo was filled with expectation for tomorrow, full of anticipation for his grandparent’s future.
