Chapter 864 Taking the Longevity Pill
He never expected that not only would he gain such great benefits from this trip, but the two longevity pills alone would be enough to solve the problem he had always worried about, namely the death of his grandparents.
Not to mention the detailed explanation of the basic formations. Now he is already impatient to learn this book. As for the problem of not being able to recognize the handwriting mentioned by Qin Huairu, in his opinion it does not exist at all.
In his opinion, the reason why Qin Huairu could not study the details of the basic formation was because her mental strength was not good enough.
When he got home, he first looked around the house. His wife and Wu Yue'e were both at home today, and the two girls were making dumplings. As for the two little ones, they were sleeping in their cribs, blowing bubbles.
"Boss, you're back?"
When Shen Yulin and the other girls saw him coming back, Shen Yulin was the first to greet them.
"Yeah, by the way, where are Zhiqiu and the others?"
After looking around and seeing that the children were not there, he couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.
“Everyone’s out playing!”
Hearing that the children had all gone out, Zhou Tian didn't care, so he turned around and walked out of the house, heading towards the east courtyard, saying as he walked, "I'm going to go to my grandparents first, and I'll be back in a while!"
"understood!"
Behind him, Shen Yulin's voice came from afar, which made him quicken his pace.
Arriving at the east wing courtyard, he just walked in through the hanging flower gate and saw his grandparents basking in the sun in the yard. Both of them looked comfortable, but as he had not come to visit them in the past few days, he could clearly feel that their vital signs were becoming more and more serious.
Especially the age spots on grandpa's face, which have already turned faintly black.
"grandparents!"
Zhou Tian walked into the east courtyard and called out to the two people. Immediately, the two elders' eyes opened wide. When they saw that the person coming was actually their eldest grandson, both old men sat up from their recliners.
"Ah, grandson, why are you here? Are you taking a day off today?"
As the grandmother spoke, she quickly stood up and poured a cup of hot water for her eldest grandson, and brought it to the small table between the recliners. Then she lay down again, but her breathing was already slightly rapid.
This made Zhou Tian feel even more fortunate. If he hadn't exchanged the longevity pill from Qin Huairu, he really wouldn't have believed that in just a few days, the health of the two elders had deteriorated so much!
"Well, take a break today!"
Zhou Tian's eyes flashed with a trace of heartache. He came to the table, picked up the water cup and drank a few sips. Then he said to the two elders: "Grandpa and grandma, I brought you some good things today. I'm sure you haven't eaten them before. I'll get them for you right away!"
As Zhou Tian spoke, he turned and walked into the house. When he came to the main room, he took a look at the furnishings in the room. He then picked up the kettle and poured two glasses of water for his grandparents respectively, and then took out the jade bottle from the space.
He opened it and mixed the longevity elixir in the jade bottle into the cup. Immediately, an indescribable natural fragrance wafted out from the cup.
"It smells so good, grandson, what are you doing?"
The fragrance spread throughout the house in an instant, and the grandparents in the yard naturally smelled it as well. As the fragrance entered their noses, they felt a sense of comfort all over their bodies, as if they were immersed in the beauty of nature.
Taking a deep breath of the fragrance coming from the room, their complexions visibly improved.
After Zhou Tian thoroughly mixed the water in the two cups with the longevity pill, he carried the two cups of water and walked in front of the two elders, saying to them: "Grandpa and grandma, this is the honey water I gave you to drink!"
"Honey water, you are just trying to fool me. I've been here for so many years, don't you think I know the taste of honey water?"
The grandfather couldn't help but smile after listening to his eldest grandson's words. Then he took the cup from his eldest grandson and drank the water in the cup in one gulp without even looking at what was in it.
The same goes for the grandmothers. After all, they know that they just have to accept the things their eldest grandson gives them. As for whether the water his eldest grandson gives them can be drunk, they have never thought about that.
"It tastes good, grandson, your water is really delicious!"
After drinking the hot water brought by her eldest grandson, the grandmother opened her eyes and reached out to stroke his hand.
With a loving face, he said, "Grandson, last night, your grandfather and I met your parents. They asked us to go over early. From now on, you and your brothers will be the only ones left. I can actually be considered to have done my best for your Zhou family. It's just that after we two leave, there will be no one to take care of your grandson!"
As she spoke, grandma's eyes suddenly became moist.
"What are you talking about, old woman? Don't say such spoiling things. My eldest grandson, don't listen to your grandma. I haven't lived enough yet. I'm still waiting to continue enjoying the filial piety of my eldest grandson!"
Listening to what grandma said, grandpa on the side was a little unhappy. The old couple had already agreed that they would stay in the yard for the next few days. No matter who left first, they could notify their eldest grandson first!
But now he didn't expect that the old woman would be so impatient and tell her eldest grandson in advance. Wouldn't this cause trouble for her eldest grandson?
"What are you talking about, old man? Do you think I don't want to?"
Upon hearing this, grandma turned around and glared at grandpa. The atmosphere that had just arisen was instantly shattered by the old man.
"Okay, grandpa and grandma, you two must not get into any trouble. We have finally had a good life now. How can you say such unlucky words? I am still waiting for you two to give me my great-great-grandchildren!"
Zhou Tian said this, but for some reason his eyes felt moist, and he teased the two elders.
Just when grandpa wanted to say something, his face suddenly changed, and he covered his stomach with both hands and said, "Oh, I have to go to the toilet, grandson, I won't talk to you for now!"
After saying that, grandpa jumped up from the recliner and ran quickly to the toilet.
"I don't know what this damn old man ate outside, oh no!"
Grandma looked at Grandpa with disdain. Just as she complained, her expression suddenly changed. She held her stomach with both hands and said to Zhou Tian, "Grandson, grandma is going to the toilet too. You sit down first!"
After saying that, without waiting for Zhou Tian's response, he couldn't wait to go to the toilet.
Watching his grandparents' backs, Zhou Tian couldn't help but feel amused by the two elderly people's actions, but he knew in his heart that the two longevity pills must have taken effect, otherwise, the two elderly people would not have changed so quickly in such a short moment.
Judging from the speed of the two old men just now, there was no sign that their time was up.
"Grandpa and grandma, I won't let you leave like this. I just don't know if you can still be so calm when you come back later!"
When he thought of the two old people's incredulous expressions for a while, he couldn't help but laugh from the bottom of his heart, but at the same time, he felt a little sad.
Although he rescued the two old people this time with the help of Qin Huairu's longevity pill, he couldn't guarantee that he would be able to pull them back from the hands of the King of Hell next time!
