After Sun Dacheng and his wife had finished the dinner, his wife went to check on Sun Honglin again . She found Sun Honglin was sound sleep .
“What happened to him?” Sun Dacheng asked .
“He’s sleeping,” his wife said .
“Just leave him alone,” Sun Dacheng said .
He chatted with his wife for a while . Since he had been busy working, he went to bed early .
The next morning, smoke appeared on Nanshan Hill . Wang Yao got up early to brew a decoction for Lu Xiaomei, who suffered from a terrible disease . Sophora, poria, hexandrum…
It was very cold in the morning . It was the beginning of winter frost, the coldest time of the year . Therefore, it was quite usual for some people to enjoy sleeping in .
Still, many villagers got up early in the morning to feed the livestock, including Wang Fengmin . The first thing he did was to check the sheep in the pen . He was concerned that the other sheep left in it would get sick too . If so, he would be desperate .
“Darling, did you hear sheep baa last night?” Wang Fengmin asked .
“No . Didn’t you get up twice last night?” his wife replied .
“Yes,” Wang Fengmin said .
His sheep were all fine .
“Shall we just sell all the sheep?” Wang Fengmin suggested .
“Sell them? What if they have bugs in their belly?” his wife asked with concern .
“It doesn’t matter . As long as we are not eating them,” Wang Fengmin said .
“Do you think it’s the right thing to do?” His wife was doubtful .
“I don’t care,” Wang Fengmin said .
His wife didn’t convince him . Plus, she sort of agreed with him . Wang Fengmin started to make phone calls and tried to sell all his sheep . He didn’t want to worry about them anymore .
Wang Yao left Nanshan Hill after he had finished brewing the decoction .
He had a few patients in the morning . All the patients had minor issues such as headache and leg pain . However, it was not easy to cure those issues .
Wang Yao had gained a reputation in treating leg pain and headache . Those patients didn’t require medication or injections . He just gave them a massage or acupuncture therapy . He never tried to market his service, which sounded simple but contained a lot of knowledge and skills .
His patients all left the clinic happy .
“Hmm, he’s so good . My leg was painful on my way here from time to time . Now, I only have a warm feeling in my leg and no pain at all,” one of Wang Yao’s patients said .
“Yeah, you’d never expect a young man like him to be such a good doctor,” another patient said .
“He’s really good at treating leg pain and headache . My son saw it on WeChat,” the first patient said .
Wang Yao didn’t know that word of mouth had spread online .
Of course, not every one of his patients was happy with him . He just didn’t know .
Wang Yao heard some news when he was about to have lunch at noon . Instead of eating, he rushed out of his home .
“Where are you going?” Zhang Xiuying asked .
“Buying sheep,” Wang Yao said .
He didn’t expect Wang Fengmin to not take his advice and choose to sell his sheep . What if those sheep were really sick? What could he do about it?
He suddenly stopped halfway to Wang Fengmin’s house .
He knew Wang Fengmin was selling his sheep . What if the other villagers also intended to sell their livestock?
He arrived at Wang Fengmin’s house as he was thinking about it . Wang Fengmin had already sold all of his sheep .
“How could you sell them?” Wang Yao asked .
“Why couldn’t I?” Wang Fengmin was not happy to be blamed by someone much younger in the village . He had been upset about what had happened for days . Now, he just exploded .
“What if there are bugs inside the sheep?” Wang Yao asked .
“It’s none of your business . I’m not asking you to buy my sheep,” Wang Fengmin said .
Wang Yao was speechless .
“Mind your own business,” Wang Fengmin added .
“Who did you sell your sheep to?” Wang Yao asked .
“I’m not telling you,” Wang Fengmin said .
“Don’t be rude, Fengmin . Yao, ignore your uncle . He sold the sheep to Li from the village next door . You know, Li runs a restaurant,” Wang Fengmin’s wife said .
Wang Yao knew Li, who often came to his village to buy sheep . Wang Yao didn’t waste time arguing with Wang Fengmin . He left Wang Fengmin’s place right away without saying goodbye .
“Such a rude boy!” Wang Fengmin was still upset .
“You are so bad-tempered! Do you remember he cured your mother’s headache?” Wang Fengmin’s wife shouted .
“I paid him anyway,” Wang Fengmin said .
Wang Yao didn’t rush to the village next door . Instead, he went to Sun Yunsheng’s place .
“Hello, Dr . Wang,” Sun Yunsheng said .
“Can I ask you to do something for me?” Wang Yao went directly to the point .
“Of course,” Sun Yunsheng said .
“From now on, as soon as someone in the village tries to sell livestock, you buy it . You can’t let them sell livestock to anyone except you . Then, you find a way to get rid of the livestock . I’m concerned that there are poisonous insects inside those livestock,” Wang Yao said .
“No problem, I’ll keep an eye out,” Sun Yunsheng said .
“The restaurant serving lamb soup had just purchased several sheep from here,” Wang Yao said .
“I see . I’ll arrange someone to sort it out,” Sun Yunsheng said .
Half an hour later, Sun Yunsheng’s man went to the restaurant in the village next door .
Li Zhikui was absolutely confused about what had happened . Suddenly, someone bought all the sheep he got from Nanshan village . They paid $1,000 yuan for each sheep . He made a good profit . He made several hundreds of yuan out of each sheep . He was just surprised that the buyer loaded the sheep with a very good car . According to his son, the car was an MPV . Rich people just did whatever they wanted . Apparently, the buyer must be a big fan of lamb .
Wang Yao was still at Sun Yunsheng’s house .
Since he was there, he reviewed Lin Sitao and Hao, who were injured . They were both fine .
All the poisonous insects had been expelled from their bodies . The injury in the bones and organs had also been controlled . All they needed to do now was to look after themselves properly .
“You are fine, just make sure you rest well,” Wang Yao said .
“Thank you,” Uncle Lin said .
Sun Yunsheng walked Wang Yao out of the house . He didn’t get back until he couldn’t see Wang Yao anymore .
“Master Sun . ” As soon as Sun Yunsheng returned to the house, he heard Uncle Lin calling him .
“Yes, Uncle Lin,” Sun Yunsheng said .
“You just said Dr . Wang asked you to do something . What did he ask you to do?” Uncle Lin asked .
Sun Yunsheng told him what Wang Yao asked him to do .
“You need to tell your dad about this,” Uncle Lin suggested .
“Do I need to?” Sun Yunsheng asked .
“Yes,” Uncle Line said .
Sun Yunsheng called his dad to tell him what was going on .
“OK . I see . I will send people to do it,” Sun Zhengrong said .
He was much more experienced and efficient than his son in these types of matters .
Wang Yao saw a car parking outside his clinic on his way from Sun Yunsheng’s house to his clinic . Su Changhe and Lu Xiaomei had been waiting for him . They came to fetch the decoction .
“Hi, have you been waiting for long?” Wang Yao asked .
“Not long . We’ve just arrived,” Su Changhe said .
“Please come in . It’s quite cold outside,” Wang Yao said .
They all went into the clinic . Wang Yao gave Lu Xiaomei the decoction, which cost the same as last time . Then, they started to chat . While they were chatting, Wang Yao heard someone bang on the door of the clinic . A woman rushed in .
“Dr . Wang, could you please take a look at my son?” The woman was very anxious . She was followed by a middle-aged man, who was carrying a young man with a pale face .
“You!” Wang Yao was shocked .
He knew the three people . The young man was one of the three drug addicts . The other two were his parents .
“Dr . Wang, could you please take a look at him?” Sun Dacheng asked anxiously .
After they got up this morning and cooked breakfast, Sun Dacheng’s wife went to get their son for breakfast . However, Sun Honglin didn’t respond . They thought he had just slept in, so they left him alone . After they had breakfast, they waited until after 9 a . m . for their son to come out of the room . However, Sun Honglin was still in his bedroom . Sun Dacheng became a bit angry . He thought his son was lacking respect toward him . So, he went into his son’s room to check on him . Sun Honglin was still in bed . Sun Dacheng took a close look at his son and found his son’s face was abnormally red . He touched his son’s face, which was extremely hot . He then took his son to the hospital .
Sun Honglin had a high fever of 103 . 1 degrees . Initially the doctor thought he just had the flu . However, the results of his blood test indicated something more . So, the doctor recommended full blood and urine test . Sun Dacheng and his wife were really concerned about their son . They asked the doctor what was going on . The doctor asked them to wait for test results .
The results suggested chronic renal failure . Sun Dacheng and his wife were shocked . They didn’t know how their son could end up having renal failure .
Although he tried to put it in a nice way, the doctor told them it was a serious medical condition . So, they immediately drove their son to the village . They even crushed two chickens on their way . Blood was everywhere on the road .
“I’m sorry,” Wang Yao calmly said after seeing Sun Honglin .
“Dr . Wang, please help our boy!” Sun Honglin’s mother was almost in tears .
“Sorry, I can’t help him,” Wang Yao said .
