Chapter 865: Changes in Grandpa and Grandma
Although the longevity elixir can indeed add 30 years to the lifespan of the two elders, its effect is still limited. It is definitely unrealistic to really let grandparents live for a long time.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh. Compared to longevity and immortality through practicing Taoism, the lifespan of mortals was, after all, too short.
However, having said that, whenever he thought about his grandparents passing away, he couldn't help feeling melancholy and sad.
Fortunately, the two elders can still live another 30 years, which is a blessing in disguise.
"Oh, why do I feel so comfortable after using the toilet? It seems like my legs and feet have strength again!"
While Zhou Tian was daydreaming, his grandfather came out of the bathroom, muttering to himself with a puzzled look on his face as he walked, and raised his legs from time to time, somewhat unbelieving.
But when Zhou Tian saw his grandfather, he immediately laughed and teased: "Grandpa, look at how dirty you are. How long has it been since you last showered? And are you sore all over?"
But he saw that his grandfather's body was covered with a layer of oil stains, and it emitted a dark glow in the sunlight, just like a worker who had just come out of a coal mine.
It was just a sour and smelly smell that made him take a few steps back even though he was still a hundred meters away from her.
"What nonsense are you talking about, kid? I, your grandpa, just took a bath the day before yesterday, how could I have a sour smell?"
The grandfather's face turned red after hearing what his eldest grandson said. He couldn't help but retort, but he still lowered his head and smelled his clothes. Suddenly, his old face changed, and a strong sour and smell hit his nose. The smell almost made him vomit out the overnight meal.
He had just walked out of the toilet, and at first he thought it was the smell from the toilet that was coming out. He didn't pay attention to it at first, but now he realized that this was not the smell of the toilet, but clearly the smell of his own body.
He immediately stopped joking with his eldest grandson and turned around and hurried towards the bathroom.
Just as the old man walked into the bathroom, grandma also came out of the toilet. However, grandma was obviously more careful than grandpa. She must have felt the changes in her body while using the toilet. After coming out, she didn't say hello to Zhou Tian and walked into the bathroom.
After a while, as the sound of grandparents arguing came from the bathroom, he smiled and did not disturb them, and sat on the recliner to bask in the sun.
The city of Sijiu in February is already full of life. Although some willow trees have begun to sprout, it still looks very bleak. Only the occasional birds resting on the willow trees chirp from time to time.
It is refreshing and the cool breeze that blows gently, although still a little chilly, is not as biting as a winter day, giving people a feeling of a cool breeze on their face.
While Zhou Tian closed his eyes and basked in the sun, in the bathroom, Grandpa rubbed Grandma's back and said, "Old lady, I have felt that our bodies have reached the end of their usefulness recently, but why do I feel that my body seems to be much younger today?"
As an old man who came from the old society, he was considered a very knowledgeable man. A few days ago, he vaguely felt that the health of him and his wife had reached the end, and he was prepared to die without illness and disaster with his wife, which would be considered a blessing. However, he did not expect that while feeling his health getting worse and worse, in the blink of an eye, he actually felt that his body had regained its vitality.
Moreover, this vitality seemed to be constantly increasing, making him feel like he had returned to his thirties or forties.
"Why do you care about these things? Since our health has improved, doesn't that mean God will not take us away? This is great, maybe we can even have a great-grandson!"
But grandma didn't think much about it. She just closed her eyes and let her husband rub her back.
"No, aren't you curious, old woman?"
Grandpa suddenly became unhappy and asked with a frown.
"What are you curious about? Are you curious about what kind of magic medicine our grandson gave us? Are you curious about where our grandson got all these good things from? Am I a cheap old man? Since our grandson doesn't want to tell us, can't we just pretend that we don't know?"
"Besides, do you hope that these things will be exposed and cause trouble for your grandson? Anyway, this is what your grandson gave to me as a filial tribute to his grandmother. Even if you don't care about it, I still do!"
When grandma heard what grandpa said, she couldn't help but open her eyes and turned over.
In fact, she had known over the years that her eldest grandson must have given them a lot of good food. After all, they knew the health of the couple themselves. It was impossible for old people who had lived through the old society to have good health.
But since they started living in the courtyard house with their eldest grandson and enjoying the good food and drinks, their health has been getting better and better. But this year, they all felt the changes in their bodies. It was a year when their energy and spirits declined rapidly.
She even felt in her heart that the old couple had probably reached the end of their lifespan, but today she felt the difference in her body again. Although she was curious about what her eldest grandson took out, as she said.
This was given by their eldest grandson as a gift to them, and they went on to say that if they really asked questions that they shouldn't have asked, it would be a disaster for both the eldest grandson and others.
In that case, it’s better not to ask.
"Yes, oh, am I wrong? But it's a bit of a waste for my eldest grandson to use such a precious thing on us!"
After hearing what grandpa said, he couldn't help but feel that the old woman was thoughtful. However, he still felt that it was a bit of a waste for his eldest grandson to use such a precious thing on them.
Grandma also agreed with what grandpa said. After all, they were already very old and didn't have much time left to live. Even if they could be a few years or even ten years younger, in their opinion, it would be better for them and their wife to use their eldest grandson.
However, when the old couple finished taking a bath, they were shocked to find the differences in each other. It was as if both grandpa and grandma had suddenly returned from being in their eighties to being in their forties or fifties.
Although he still has silver hair, he looks much younger.
The two elders couldn't help but look at each other, and they could see the shock in each other's eyes.
After taking a shower, the two elders were shocked for a long time before they changed their clothes and walked out of the bathroom. When they saw their eldest grandson on the recliner, they slowed down their pace at the same time, walked over carefully, and looked at their eldest grandson with doting in their eyes.
"Grandpa and grandma, you are done washing!"
Perhaps sensing something, Zhou Tian immediately opened his eyes and saw his grandparents looking at him. He immediately stood up and asked with a smile.
"Yes, everything is washed. Grandson, are you going to eat here today? Or should grandma make you something delicious?"
