Zhang Xiaobo could hardly believe his eyes as he knew that the injuries his son suffered was difficult for recovery and chances are too slim , also given the harsh environment of the isolated backwater region of theirs ,it was a miracle his son could sit up who was still in the bed with a little breath left in his for weeks .
"Tian'er how's your injury? is it OK to move about just after you woke up? " throwing aside the trouble he had in his mind , he first asked what concerned him the most . He could feel his nose turn sour at the pale face of his son.
Being the only child they had , they've not laid a hand on him since he was born and ending in such a state ,he felt that he was a terrible father .
Guan Qin Han saw the remorseful face of her husband and she knew what was going on his mind . being together for so long made her understand her husband better. letting out a soft sigh she gave him a light pat on his shoulder and gave him a reassuring look .
Zhang Xiaobo feeling the comfort is Guan Qin Han knew he was over thinking and released a sigh and smiled bitterly.
Zhang Wutian facing his parents felt conflicted at his fathers question as he could not express himself that their son was dead and he transmigrated over their sons body . If news got out it would be disaster for him and a hard blow for his current parents . they would probably think he was some kind of evil soul practioner possesing their son.
" it's OK father , I just feel a little weak and hungry . and I have no problem with the injuries . they will probably recover in a few days time. Said Wutian as he he thought of how to answer them if they asked about his recovery. he could only make up on the fact that he ate the blood ginseng.
" its OK that you are fine " replied Zhang Xiaobo as he mulled over how his son recovered . unable to think of any reasons he asked Guan Qin Han first .
" Han'er , what did you give him?" hearing the question Guan Win han was stunned and replied " I did not give anything to Tian'er , what does it have to do anyway , its good that he recovered why ask those questions? " replied Qin Han but she too was curious over how her son recovered immediately .
looking at his parents curious face , Wutian rubbed his nose not know whether to laugh or cry . " Father , Mother, how would i know how I recovered when even both of you didnt know ? maybe its because of the ginseng i swallowed that day I can still feel abundant energy flowing in my body "
" hmm that makes sense , as the saying goes ' a blessing in disguise' , our Tian'er is lucky to have recovered from the misfortune " replied Guan Qin Han happily and Zhang xiaobo sighed in relief.
" alright its good that you've recovered , here are some ' energy revitalising pills ' , take them and see if you feel better " said Zhang xiaobo as he could feel a huge burden lifted off his shoulder and felt hungry after three weeks of sleepless nights and low appetite.
" lets have dinner , the food is getting cold , Tian'er you should have more food to recover faster " said Qin Han as she added dumplings and rice on Wutian's plate filling the whole plate with the simple dishes of the family of three.
Zhang Wutian gladly accepted his mother's care and started gobbling up the contents in his plate. seeing her son eating heartilly made her happy and satisfied . she added some for herself and Zhang Xiaobo and started the dinner quietly ..
.only the sounds of chopstick clicking against the rice bowl and slurping of soup could be heard.
During the whole dinner Zhang Wutian observed his parents every details from their etiquettes and found out that his mother had the bearing of a noble lady , graceful in everything she does and the air she carries around her outshines her environment ,the backwater village could not dimnish the noble aura of her.
Zhang Wutian wondered if his mother was off a noble , but refrained from asking as he recalled from his memories that his parents never talked about their backgrounds or the past . which made him made him wonder if there was any story behind it .
While observing his father Zhang Wutian had a peculiar feeling that his father was just like any other normal man but his aura was like that of a man a the top of the hierarchy which could be the results of royal upbringing or maybe a personal trait inherited from families .
these results of observation made Zhang Wutian ponder over their family background , for as he could remember from his memories that there were no relatives of theirs in this small village .
and only kind neighbors and their relatives visiting them from other nearby villages from time to time made him realize that his family of three seems to be different from other families in the villages with siblings and relatives while his family was of made of three members.
Finishing the meal quietly Zhang Wutian said " good night mother ,father , I am tired , I'm going to rest for the day"
"OK let me help you with the windows" Qin Han she said as she stood up and washed her hands and followed Wutian into his room and closed the windows for him and tucked him in the soft blanket .
leaving only after making sure everything is fine she said " good night dear and sleep well" she took a long look at her son who was already under the blanket and unwillingly and walked out of the room closing the door behind. she was afraid that he might not wake up the next morning or today was just a dream .
upon reaching the kitchen she frowned at her husband and said in a low voice " Xiaobo , don't you feel that our son seems strange today? he seems to be a lot more mature and the bubbly and lively Tian'er is gone? " .
she felt that she lost something as she could feel the change in her son's behavior which did not fit of some twelve years old kid. but she could not point out the lost feeling hence asking her husband.
hearing his wife's reminder Zhang Xiaobo too found it odd but dismissed it quickly saying " yes i felt it too but it might be because he was traumatized by the incident and matured earlier?"
" hmm that must be it , I felt that he was a different person for a while " replied Qin Han as she felt exhausted.
" don't overthink he's our son and nothings going to change that fact " said Zhang Xiaobo as he helped her tidy up the dishes.
" I know i was just not used to having him mature so early " replied Qin Han .
while Zhang wutian was in a dilemma over his bleak future in this new world in his room . he gradually felt asleep and didn't know what is mother was saying... as people say ' womens intuition and sensitivity are abnormally powerful ' . his mother accurately sensed his abnormality but discarded as he was her son and there's nothing more to it.
