Chapter 388: Chapter 388 Really Not Dreaming

Luo Qiao chatted with Grandpa and Grandma for a while. Big Brother, seeing that their conversation had ended, ran over and said, "Sister, I saved some delicious food for you."

As he spoke, he dashed to the stove and fetched a roasted sweet potato. Since he’d just taken it out of the stove, it was still very hot, which made him juggle it between his hands. He looked up with a smile and said, "Wait a moment, it’s too hot, we’ll eat it later."

Luo Qiao just watched Big Brother and could clearly feel that his speech had become more organized. As long as he stuck with treatment, she believed that before she returned to Ji City, Big Brother would regain the intellectual capacity of a normal person.

He might not be as smart as Second Brother, but this was enough to comfort the family. Luo Qiao thought that it was probably impossible for Big Brother to start learning from scratch now, but once he recovered, she could have Grandpa teach him at home how to read and do arithmetic.

Once he learned enough, they would let him socialize with the people around him for a few months. After he fully integrated into society, they would consider his own wishes, whether he wanted to learn a trade or find a job, it would all depend on his preferences and his own will.

She took the sweet potato from Big Brother’s hands, peeled off the skin, and gently took a bite of the soft and sweet flesh, "Delicious, thank you, Big Brother."

Luo Xuyan was thrilled to see his sister enjoying it, and with a simple grin, he said, "Tomorrow, I’ll roast another one for Sister."

Luo Qiao did not refuse. Big Brother needed a process of interacting with others, being acknowledged, and being filled with motivation.

After washing her hands, she did not delay any further and spoke to Grandma, who was still tidying up, "Grandma, I have to go out this afternoon, let’s have lunch a bit earlier."

Zhou Guifang, upon hearing her granddaughter’s words, replied, "Alright, I’ll begin cooking once this is tidied up, and at noon, Grandma will make pancakes for you to eat."

Luo Qiao said with a smile, "Okay, I’ll quickly go and administer acupuncture to Big Brother and Second Brother, then I’ll come out to help you."

While tidying up, Zhou Guifang said, "You just look after Big Brother and Second Brother. Grandma can handle the cooking, plus your Grandpa is here to help."

Returning to the living room, Luo Qiao saw that Second Brother was reading a book. "Second Brother, you keep reading. I’ll go administer acupuncture to Big Brother first."

Luo Xuyuan asked, "Are you leaving again this afternoon?"

Luo Qiao replied, "There’s a performance in the military camp this afternoon. Sister Jianing and I are going to watch it, I’ll come back here to stay the night."

After preparing everything and sterilizing her tools, Luo Qiao quickly administered acupuncture to Big Brother first, and then to Second Brother. Once Second Brother’s acupuncture was complete, she used her Special Ability to perform a meridian repair on Big Brother’s body.

Just as the repair was finished, it was also time to remove the needles. She took them out and massaged Big Brother’s head, taking advantage of the time post-acupuncture to aid in repairing the damaged nerves in his head.

She instructed Big Brother to put on his hat, told him he couldn’t go out yet, then she removed Second Brother’s needles. Next, she fetched the prepared ointment and began to apply it to his knees and legs, giving him a full massage until the ointment was completely absorbed before she stopped.

After helping Luo Xuyuan button his trouser legs, Luo Qiao asked, "Second Brother, how are you feeling today?"

Luo Xuyuan’s expression was much livelier than before, and there was a faint smile on his face, "I feel very good, Qiaoqiao, thank you."

Then, suppressing the excitement in his heart, he said, "Qiaoqiao, when I woke up this morning, my legs had gained some sensation. I tried pinching them a few times, and there was real pain. It wasn’t a dream."

Luo Qiao had already noticed the pinch marks on Second Brother’s legs and concluded that he had been quite rough on himself, evidenced by the bruising. She purposefully let him speak for himself, allowing him to release his emotions, which could only do him good.

Once everything was in order, Grandma had finished cooking—stewed pork with vermicelli and cabbage, pancakes served with millet porridge—and Luo Qiao ate her fill.

Luo Daoren observed the changes in his grandsons with his own eyes and gave Luo Qiao a grateful look; this granddaughter truly was the lucky star of the family, and he now genuinely believed what she had told him.

After the meal, Luo Qiao, along with Big Brother, helped Grandma clean up the dishes and said, "Grandma, I’ll be back to stay tonight, but I might come back a bit late, so don’t worry about us."

She then turned to Grandpa, "Grandpa, you’re not allowed to wait outside anymore. The afternoon performance over there starts at three-thirty and will probably last two or three hours. We’ll have dinner, and by the time I come back, it will be after eight-thirty."
