Chapter 62 -62: Taking Grandpa for a Walk Outside

In the courtyard, the voice of Third Uncle Lin Baiyi, along with the happy exclamations of Lin Changyi and Lin Caiqing, could be heard.

Sitting by the bed, Lin Caisang put the jade book in her hands into the golden pearl space, then stood up and went outside. She knew that the wheelchair must have been completed.

“Sangsang, come see this, how do you find the wheelchair? Would you like to try it?”

As the door was just opened, Lin Baiyi’s bright eyes fixated on her, asking with a beaming smile.

“It’s completed already? That was fast.”

Lin Caisang glanced at the wheelchair in front of Lin Baiyi and walked over.

“Third Uncle, have you tried it?”

“Not yet, you try first.” Lin Baiyi shook his head.

He did manage to make the thing but still wasn’t sure how to use it. The four wheels – two large and two small – were quite flexible and he didn’t know if they would slide randomly. What if it ended up causing his father to fall over?

“Or maybe, Third Uncle, you should try it first?”

Considering the possibility of an accident, he was reluctant to let Lin Caisang be the first to test it.

“Or I guess I should try it first.”

With those words, Lin Caisang sat in the wheelchair and wiggled a bit in the seat.

“Grandma, maybe you can make a thin cushion to add on top, that would make it more comfortable.”

“Okay.”

Ms. Lu of the Lin family responded with a smile.

“Sangsang, Third Uncle will push you.”

“No need, I’ll try it myself.”

Lin Caisang shook her head in refusal. Resting both hands on the wheels beside her, she slowly started to rotate them. The wheelchair began to move forward, covering seven or eight steps, then she spun just one wheel, making the wheelchair turn around, and continued forward.

“Grandma, what do you think about this?”

“Good, it can’t get any better.”

Looking at her very own moving wheelchair, how could Ms. Lu deny its brilliance.

Outside the courtyard, Lin Changhong happened to return from farming, hoe over his shoulder. Seeing the situation, he couldn’t help but comment, “Sangsang, the wheelchair is good indeed, but it won’t work going downhill.”

Lin Caisang: “…”

Her elder brother indeed had sharp eyes, spotting the weakness of the wheelchair at a glance.

But there was nothing they could do, the reality of utilizing local resources was such. As for things like brakes, where could they get the materials for that? They would just have to make do as is.

“Sangsang, don’t listen to your brother’s nonsense, the chair is good enough as it is. We’re not expecting Grandpa to go and buy things in town all by himself, what nonsense about going downhill, always making a fuss.”

“Actually, going downhill shouldn’t be much of a problem. Once Grandpa gets used to the wheelchair, his arm strength would naturally build up. He just needs to hold the wheels firmly when going downhill.” Lin Caisang just smiled, got up and said.

“Besides, there’ll always be someone accompanying Grandpa when he goes out, it’s not an issue.”

“Yes, Sangsang is right.” Lin Changhong laughed.

“Third Uncle, why don’t you bring Grandpa out to try it? The weather’s nice today, it’s a good day to take Grandpa for a spin outside.”

“Okay.”

Lin Baiyi agreed, then went inside the room to carry Lin Laogeng out. It took a while as he changed the old man into his newest clothes.

Upon sitting on the wheelchair, Lin Laogeng couldn’t hide his happiness. Continuously praising his granddaughter’s brilliance and his son’s handiness, the old man was eager to go out and see his old friends.

“You all go out for a walk, and I’ll make lunch.” Ms. Lu said.

“Grandma, I won’t eat here, I have an appointment with Brother Molian to sell some game in town. I’ll leave a chicken here.” Lin Changhong said.

“No need, we still have plenty of meat at home. Why save the chicken? You should sell all…”

But before Ms. Lu could finish her sentence, a sharp scream mixed with the sound of crying came from the neighboring courtyard. Everyone in the courtyard frowned, puzzled.
