This is so difficult! Wang Yao sighed .
A hundred people from a thousand miles away .
Fortunately, the time allotted was two months, instead of a month . He had some time to find a way .
In another mountain village in Lianshan County, the look in the patient’s eyes as she laid on the kang was drifting . She looked as though she was going to die .
Ah .
She let out a weak cry, but there was no one in the room .
Her eyes were slowly closing . If they were shut, it was afraid that she could never open them again .
“Mother!”
She heard someone shouting and calling for her . She felt that the voice was very familiar and she wanted to open her eyes and see . However, she felt that she had no strength at all, not even enough to open her eyes .
“Father!”
Jiqing was very anxious upon seeing his mother’s condition .
His father hurriedly rushed over from the courtyard . He was also anxious upon seeing the situation .
“Quick . Give her the medicine . ”
He took out some medicine and he just managed to force one of them into her . There was no immediate visible effect .
“This… This…”
“There are more . ”
He immediately took out the three Nine Herbs pill given by Wang Yao and fed her all of them .
After waiting for a while, they thought that the old woman could not make it .
Then, the patient lying on the kang slowly opened her eyes .
Phew .
“Jiqing . ”
“Mother, you’re awake . ”
The process was just ten minutes, but her family felt as though it had been a century long .
The woman lying on the bed felt that she had a long dream . She was walking in the dark night alone and could not see her surroundings clearly . She could not even see anything under her feet clearly . There was no one around and not a single sound . She just kept walking, as if there was no end . Suddenly, a light pierced through the endless darkness . She returned to the world and saw her loved ones and their worried facial expressions .
She was alive!
“She’s awake . She’s awake . ”
The whole family heaved a sigh of relief, but it didn’t take long for them to start worrying again .
This was not the first time that such a situation had happened . She was getting closer to death by the moment . She could be saved this time, but what about the next time? What about in the future? How long could she still hold out? No one could tell .
Sigh .
The whole family surrounded by fear once again .
Sigh . Was this daytime or nighttime?
Although they were husband and wife for decades, he had enough .
After all, people needed sleep . But if they took a nap and dozed off, their loved one might leave them forever by the time they woke up .
Therefore, when there was a person in the family who was ill, the whole family had to go through agony .
When is this life coming to an end?
The night had fallen and it was getting late .
After dinner, Chen Changfeng asked his mother, “Mother, how are you feeling?”
“I feel quite well . My head hasn’t hurt for a day already . I’ll certainly be able to sleep well tonight . ”
Ever since she suffered from the strange illness, having a good sleep was a luxury that was hard to come by . However, she felt that she could definitely sleep well that day, and could even sleep through until the morning .
“When you’re free, take me to thank Dr . Wang . ”
“We’ll talk about it when you’ve recovered,” Chen Changfeng replied .
That night, Wang Yao was thinking about something while looking at the sky in the small courtyard .
How should I use the medicine? How should I test it?
He had been thinking about the tumor these past few days .
Ring, ring . Buzz . Just as he was wracking his brain, his phone rang . It was a phone number which he didn’t recognize, with an international number .
“Hello, what are you doing?” There was a clear voice like a mountain stream on the other end of the phone . It was Tong Wei, the beauty who was far away in France .
“I’m looking at the sky on the hill,” Wang Yao replied with a smile .
“Do you miss me?”
“I do!” Wang Yao answered with a smile .
“I’m coming back soon,” Tong Wei who was on the other end of the phone said .
“When are you coming back? I’ll pick you up at the airport,” Wang Yao replied hurriedly .
“A week later . I’ll give you a call when the time is confirmed . ”
“Sure . ”
Both of them only hung up after chatting for quite some time .
She’s coming back so soon?
Well, come to think of it, Tong Wei had actually left more than two months ago . Wang Yao had not been idle during this period of time .
It’s good for her to be back .
That night, Wang Yao went to bed very late . He did not turn off the lights until past 11 o’clock at night .
Early morning the next day, the sky was clear and the autumn wind was refreshing .
The weather had became a lot cooler . The temperature had dropped to less than 25 degrees . Autumn was truly coming .
In the morning, Wang Yao returned home and realized that his mother was packing clothes for him .
“Mother, what are you doing?”
“These are autumn clothes . It’s cool on the hill . Don’t catch a cold,” Zhang Xiuying replied as she packed his clothes .
“Aye, neither the hot nor cold could not invade me . Even during winter, it’s not a problem for me to just wear a short-sleeved shirt . ”
“Don’t be ridiculous . ”
She did not know that her son was speaking the truth .
“You don’t have to pack so many pieces . I’m just on the hill, not at some faraway places . I’ll come back and take it if I need to . ”
“I know how lazy you are . ”
Just like that, Zhang Xiuying packed a huge box of clothes for Wang Yao .
Sigh . Wang Yao sighed .
A mother’s love was like the ocean . What could he say?
At noon, a sumptuous lunch was served because there were guests, who were Wang Yao’s uncles . They would usually visit Wang Yao and his family . He was here to give out an invitation card .
“Is Yilong getting married?”
“Yes . ”
“This is great!” Wang Fenghua exclaimed .
Wang Yao knew that his two uncles had no luck in marriages . They were both in their thirties, but they were not married yet . The age of the uncle in front of him would be 32 years old this year, whereas the one who was getting married was 36 years old this year . Their family originally lived in this mountain village as well, but they moved away later . Wang Yao was not sure why .
“Okay . Go back and tell your father that I’ll be there for sure!” Wang Fenghua said .
“Alright . ”
“Why don’t we have some beer?”
“Sure . We’ll drink some . ”
During lunch, Wang Yao realized that his uncle was still the same as before . He seemed to lack the masculinity that men should have .
“Yishan, did anyone talk to you about finding a partner lately?” Wang Yao’s mother asked .
“Someone talked to me about it before . That woman is too good with words . ”
“What’s wrong with that? The key thing is, what’s she like?”
“She’s alright . ”
When Wang Yao heard this, he felt that his uncle did not even want to talk to her, or that he was not even interested in her .
Sure enough, his mother did not continue to ask .
“Is Yishan lacking?” After Wang Yao’s uncle left, Wang Yao’s mother said to his father .
“Don’t talk nonsense . What’s wrong with him? I think he’s quite good . ”
“Quite good? He hasn’t even found a partner until now . ”
“What’s wrong with that? It’s just that fate hasn’t arrived yet . Your son hasn’t found one too!”
This is bad!
When Wang Yao heard this, he decisively got up and ran out .
“Stop right there . ”
“I have an appointment with someone today . I’ll get going first . ” Wang Yao dashed out of the house swiftly .
Sigh . It was an unexpected calamity . He was an innocent bystander caught in the crossfire .
After coming out of his house, Wang Yao did not go up the hill in a hurry . Instead, he went to the medical center . He did not lie when he was at home just now . He was really going to meet a friend, Wang Mingbao .
He had just brewed a pot of tea when he heard the sound of the door being opened . Wang Mingbao was here .
“Isn’t it busy in the shop?”
“It’s alright . Someone’s helping me to keep an eye on it . ”
“Is there a matter?”
“There really is,” Wang Mingbao replied .
“Go ahead and say it . What is it?” Wang Yao .
“Do you know County Magistrate Dai?”
“County Magistrate Dai? Which County Magistrate Dai? I don’t know him . Why?” Wang Yao was startled .
“Sss, that’s weird then . ” Wang Mingbao was dumbfounded .
“What’s wrong?”
“Nothing . ”
He then clarified his reason for coming . It turned out that the secretary of the town felt unwell all of a sudden and he might retire in advance . As a result, there would be a vacancy . This opportunity was hard to come by . Wang Mingbao’s father naturally wanted to move up . After all, a mayor was still different from a secretary . However, there were other people who were eyeing at this position . One must have the support in the county . He inadvertently heard his father saying that County Magistrate Dai had mentioned Wang Yao before . He thought that Wang Yao knew him, so he came over to ask .
“I don’t know who County Magistrate Dai is, but I think I know someone who knows him,” Wang Yao suddenly remembered who County Magistrate Dai was .
“Who?”
“Tian Yuantu . ”
He remembered that Tian Yuantu seemed to have had several meals with County Magistrate Dai before and they seemed quite close to each other .
“Him?”
“If Uncle wants to move up a bit, I can help a little,” Wang Yao said .
“Wait, is it him?” Wang Mingbao remembered that Wang Yao knew another imminent person and the person just had to speak a few words for this matter .
“Yes . ”
“Then…”
“I’ll go to Haiqu tomorrow,” Wang Yao answered .
After all, it was his buddy’s matter . Moreover, it would be beneficial to Wang Yao if Wang Mingbao’s father became the head of the town .
“Thank you . ”
“We’re buddies . Don’t be so polite . Drink some tea . ”
“Oh yeah, the grapes which I’ve eaten last time were quite good . Do you still have them?”
“Yes . ”
“Can you give me two bunches when I leave later?”
“Sure, no problem . ”
Wang Mingbao stayed for a while and both of them chatted . He then carried two bunches of grapes and left .
Chen Changfeng was extremely happy that day because his mother slept well the night before . She slept through until the morning and she did not have a headache . His business had expanded quite a lot these few years, but he had somewhat neglected his family . His father passed away two years ago . From then onwards, he realized the importance of family . Once his mother began to suffer from headaches, he took a lot of trouble to cure his mother’s illness, but there wasn’t much of an effect There was actually an effect this time, which made him very happy .
He should express his gratitude towards Dr . Wang .
“What did you say?!”
“I said that I can move my legs a little . Look . ”
“It’s real!”
Looking at the light movements of his father-in-law’s legs, he was in high spirits .
