Chapter 33: Meeting Ye Wanwan
"Nonsense!" The village chief sighed and looked at Uncle Song with displeasure. "It's just a matter of lowering the proportion of grain income. If those leeches were really turned into money, it would be much more profitable than growing grain!"
The village chief was furious. The more he looked at Uncle Song, the more he disliked him. "You're wasting your time making money! Ye Zhiqing told me how much this pound of dried leeches can sell for!"
Song Shuxin panicked when he heard this, "Village Chief, we can't just sell it for whatever price she says it can be sold for!"
"How dare you talk back!" The village chief was so angry that he kicked Uncle Song. "Ye Zhiqing, calculate how much money you lost and make him pay for it! This will teach him a lesson and stop looking for trouble in the future."
Ye Wangshu calculated in his mind and uttered a number.
Uncle Song panicked when he heard this. "How could it be so much money? You must be lying!"
"Whether Ye Zhiqing lied or not, you'll know after she makes money!" The village chief exhaled heavily and looked at Uncle Song with displeasure. "If you don't want to compensate, I'll send you to the police station and let them settle this matter!"
"I'll go with you! Can't I go with you? I just sprinkled some salt on the paddy field. There's no need to go to the police station!"
Uncle Song laughed and looked at Zhou Jincong with a troubled expression, "Jincong! Considering the friendship between our two families, can you please delay? I can't come up with so much money right away. Look at this..."
Zhou Jincong glanced at Uncle Song and said softly, "I always listen to my wife."
After hearing what Zhou Jincong said, Uncle Song quickly looked at Ye Wangshu, "Ye Zhiqing, look at this..."
"I can do it slowly, but you have to write a document saying you have to pay it back within three months. Otherwise... I'll take this document to the police station and sue you."
"Okay! Three months is enough. I don't know how to write this document!"
"It's okay, I can write." Ye Wangshu turned to look at the village chief, "Does the village chief have any paper, pen, or ink at home that I can use?"
"Yes! I'll take it to you right now!"
After the village chief finished speaking, he went back to the house to get something, but came out after a while.
Ye Wangshu's handwriting is very different from hers. It's not that it's ugly, but it looks vigorous and powerful, not as graceful as that of other female educated youth.
Zhou Jincong looked at Ye Wangshu's words, frowned slightly, but did not speak.
After pressing his fingerprints, Ye Wangshu took the receipt back home.
After using up most of the things at home, Ye Wangshu went to the city early the next morning.
Unexpectedly, not long after getting off the bus and before buying anything, Ye Wangshu met an acquaintance.
"Doctor Ye, I'm sorry. I want to apologize to you for my previous attitude."
A crisp voice sounded, and Ye Wangshu looked at the person in front of him in confusion. It took him a long time to remember who this person was.
"Ms. Ye is also worried about Mayor Ye's condition. This is a common mentality among patients' families. I don't blame you."
As a doctor, Ye Wangshu was accustomed to such scenes.
After all, she became an attending physician at such a young age, and many patients' families felt that she lacked experience.
In addition, her face made her even less credible in the eyes of her family members.
"No, no, no, you don't blame me because you are magnanimous, but I did look down on you before. And I treated you very badly, so I should apologize."
Ye Wanwan looked at Ye Wangshu stubbornly, "Doctor Ye, you're going to buy something, right? How about you cover the cost of today's shopping?"
"No need for that. Just apologize and it'll be fine." Ye Wangshu, feeling rather amused, stopped Ye Wanwan from reaching for her wallet. "I'm actually a little curious. Why has Miss Ye's attitude towards me changed so drastically?"
Thinking back to Mayor Ye’s previous attitude towards him, Ye Wangshu felt that the prescription he wrote would most likely be thrown aside.
As Ye Wangshu expected, Mayor Ye did not intend to use her prescription.
"My aunt found this prescription while cleaning the room. She thought it was a tonic and used it. Unexpectedly, my father looked much better soon after drinking it."
"So that's how it is. Mayor Ye should take my medicine." Ye Wangshu nodded, feeling a sigh in his heart.
As expected, good people are rewarded, and I can be said to have saved Mayor Ye's life in the dark.
"Yes! We asked around for a long time before we found out it was Doctor Ye's prescription!" Ye Wanwan went up and grabbed Ye Wangshu's wrist. "Doctor Ye, could you come back to my house and take my father's pulse?"
Ye Wangshu pursed his lips, thought for a moment, and nodded.
Seeing Ye Wangshu agree, Ye Wanwan immediately hugged her, "Doctor Ye, you're such a nice person!"
This action made Ye Wangshu feel rather uncomfortable, but she had seen the world after all. Knowing Ye Wanwan was simply overjoyed, she didn't take it too seriously.
When Mayor Ye saw Ye Wangshu, he thanked him profusely and exchanged greetings for a long time before letting Ye Wangshu take his pulse.
"The mayor's health has improved a lot, but... did the mayor stay up late?" Ye Wangshu stared at Mayor Ye with a little displeasure on his face.
"You can tell from this?" Mayor Ye was a little surprised, then sighed, "My health was very poor recently, and I had a lot of work piled up. I've been feeling better these past two days, and then..."
"Mayor, you can't do this. Early to bed, early to rise, good health. You should know this common sense. What's more, you haven't recovered yet. You can't burn your life like this!"
"Dad, I've advised you so many times, but you still won't listen!" Ye Wanwan pinched her waist and looked at Mayor Ye, her face full of dissatisfaction.
"Work is important! If I don't handle it properly, it will delay a lot of work!"
Mayor Ye looked determined, and it was impossible to ask him to put down his work.
"Mayor, staying up late is like a lit candle. Once it burns out, it's gone. If you sleep eight hours a day and spend the rest of the time working, you will be like this lamp, shining brightly for a long time."
Mayor Ye stared at Ye Wangshu and felt that what she said made sense.
"Yes, Daddy, now that you've recovered, you'll be able to shine for a long time! If you, if you... I'll be without a dad!"
At the thought of this possibility, Ye Wanwan's eyes immediately filled with tears.
"Mayor Ye doesn't want his family to worry, right?" Ye Wangshu glanced at Ye Wanwan, then took out a pen and paper and began to write.
"This new prescription isn't as strong as before, so it's just right for recuperation."
"This is the food the mayor needs to avoid."
"This is the food suitable for the mayor to eat, and the schedule I wrote. The mayor can make adjustments based on these, but he must have enough rest time."
Ye Wangshu handed the three sheets of paper to Ye Wanwan. "I'll trouble you, Miss Ye, to supervise me from now on."
Ye Wanwan nodded, "Don't worry, Doctor Ye. I promise to complete the task."
Ye Wanwan raised her hand above her head and gave Mayor Ye a sly smile, "Dad, you have to be obedient!"
Mayor Ye nodded helplessly. He had been persuaded by these two people, but in the end he still had to be watched.
But this kind of life doesn't seem bad.
