Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 508: That Really Is Impressive
Old Mrs. Tong waved her hand and said, "You can’t say that. There’s nothing else for to do at ho all day, so it doesn’t waste any of my ti. In the future, with your old sister around, at least there’ll be soone to talk to."
Granny Zhang laughed, "Sure, if you’re not bothered, we can visit each other often in the future."
Granny Zhang was quite capable; she hadn’t even reached the market yet, but she already had a grasp of the Tong family’s situation.
Old Mrs. Tong had two sons and a daughter, all of whom were married. Her eldest son worked at the postal and telecommunications bureau, and her eldest daughter-in-law was an elentary school teacher. The second son worked at a shoe factory, and his wife was at a glass factory, though she still hadn’t beco a permanent employee. The youngest daughter was also married and worked at a distillery.
Granny Zhang didn’t hold back, sharing that Xinyan was studying at Jing University, though she didn’t ntion anything else.
When Old Mrs. Tong heard that Xinyan was a university student, she remarked, "That’s really impressive. What’s she studying?"
Granny Zhang replied with a smile, "Languages."
Old Mrs. Tong suddenly laughed, "Oh my, that must be tough to learn. A few days ago, I went to see my sister and ran into a foreigner near Qiann. I couldn’t understand a single word he said."
Granny Zhang was about to respond when she saw the three big characters for the market ahead: "Sis, is that the place we’re headed to?"
Old Mrs. Tong took a glance ahead, "When you’re chatting with soone, even the road seems short."
They both were too caught up in their conversation to realize how fast they’d reached the market.

When Xinyan arrived at school, it was still early, so she first returned to her dorm. She then inford the dorm supervisor of her situation and filled out a form, stating that she wouldn’t be staying in the dorm during the evenings for the ti being.
When she got to the dorm, everyone except Bai Aiwen was already up and tidying.
Xinyan looked at Cui Haili, who was already packed, and asked, "Why hasn’t she gotten up yet?"
Cui Haili casually replied, "She wasn’t in a great mood when she ca back last night and just lay down without washing up. I’ve called her twice already, but she didn’t respond."
Xinyan was a bit curious. Although Bai Aiwen could be a bit talkative and nosy, she had a good character.
She walked over and lightly pushed her, "Bai Aiwen, if you don’t get up now, you’ll be late."
But after a few pushes, Bai Aiwen still didn’t move.
Xinyan felt sothing was off. She pushed a bit harder, "Bai Aiwen, get up. Did you hear ?"
She still didn’t respond, and now everyone in the dorm was looking over.
Bai Aiwen was lying on her side, facing inward, so Xinyan couldn’t see her face. She reached over to touch her forehead to check if she was ill, "Oh my, why is it so hot?"
Hearing this, everyone gathered around, "Is she running a fever?"
Cui Haili stepped forward to help Xinyan turn her over to lie flat, and what they saw shocked everyone.
Even without a doctor, they could tell she had a fever, as her face was burning red and glowing.
Seeing this, Xinyan said, "Soone go downstairs and notify the dorm supervisor."
The dorm supervisor had a phone to call the campus doctor, which would be faster than them running to get soone.
Then she continued, "Soone grab Bai Aiwen’s washbasin and fetch so water from the washroom."
Fan Xiaoxing picked up Bai Aiwen’s washbasin and left the dorm.
In no ti, the water was fetched. Cui Haili took Bai Aiwen’s towel, soaked it, wrung it out, and placed it on her forehead, trying to cool her down physically and make her feel better, "How did she suddenly get a fever?"
Zhang Zhaodi frowned, "She seed to have been crying when she ca back."
Qiao Shani chid in, "It must be sothing at ho. I saw her with a letter yesterday."
As they were talking, the dorm supervisor entered the dorm, "What’s going on?"
Cui Haili, being the eldest and the dorm leader, replied, "We thought she was just staying in bed, but when we couldn’t wake her, we found out she had a fever."
The dorm supervisor checked Bai Aiwen’s condition, "She’s burning up this badly."
Without delay, the supervisor hurried out of the dorm, "You guys take care of her. I’ll go urge the campus doctor again."
She had already called earlier, but seeing how high her fever was, she didn’t want any delays, so she went to urge the doctor again to send soone over quickly.
