Chapter 135 The sought-after “burden”!
When Old Wang heard this, he handed the pillow to Banxianer and said casually, "Hold it for me, don't spill it."
It looked as if it was certain that these little white flowers could not escape.
The Tai family members did not argue, but were all anxiously waiting for his diagnosis.
Old Wang asked Tai Yongning to sit down, then squatted down, rolled up his trouser legs, pinched Tai Yongning's injured area, and even knocked it twice.
Although it is an old injury, it still hurts because it has not healed yet.
Tai Yongning's face turned pale, he gritted his teeth, and tried his best to endure it.
Zhuzhu felt sorry for her brother, so she hugged his arm and comforted him in a baby voice, "Brother, don't feel any pain. Zhuzhu will comfort you later."
Old Man Wang stood up and took over the conversation. "It's a good thing that it hurts. It proves that this leg can still be saved. I'm busy making medicine recently and can't do anything for the time being. Wait for five or six days, then I'll come over to break the injured leg and reattach it."
Without waiting for the Tai family's surprised response, he asked Tai Yongning, "Boy, are you afraid of the pain? Reattaching a broken leg is not something that most people can endure. Many people have bitten off their tongues and died from the pain. If you can't bear it, don't do it, otherwise your family will probably eat me!"
Tai Yongning immediately responded, "I'm not afraid of pain, I can endure it! I... I want to study!"
Old Man Wang smiled for the first time and praised, "Good boy, you have a tough temper! Then wait, eat well and drink well these few days to save your strength. I will come over in five or six days."
The Tai family was overjoyed, but the sudden realization of their years of hope still felt unreal.
Tears streamed down Yang Lihua's face as she kept asking, "Is it really curable? Can I walk like a normal person after the graft is reattached?"
Old man Wang immediately glared. He would not allow anyone to doubt his ability.
"Of course I can heal it. I've even reconnected broken bones in someone's back, let alone a small leg bone!"
Banxianer knew that it was hard to believe that his old friend looked like a beggar now, so he helped to testify.
"Don't worry, this old man may not be good at anything else, but his medical skills are truly first-rate. He was quite famous in Shuntian Prefecture back then. It's just that he has a bad temper and offended the powerful, so he had no choice but to come here to avoid trouble. Otherwise, he really can't help you with your family's problems!"
"Okay, okay!" Grandpa Tai's eyes also turned red. His grandson's leg injury and his wife's death were both hurdles that he couldn't get over.
Now his wife is probably reborn and it is impossible to make up for it, but once his grandson’s injured leg is healed, the big stone in his heart will be removed!
"Two old brothers, I wonder if you have a place to stay. Would you like to stay with us for a while? Although we don't have fine clothes and delicious food, the simple meals are always warm."
The old man invited him, Banxian shook his head, and Old Man Wang also waved his hand.
"No, no!" Old Wang carefully took the embroidered pillow and confirmed with the Tai family again, "Since we've decided to use it to treat this kid's leg injury, then this fragrant chalcedony... I'll take it."
Yang Lihua subconsciously looked at her daughter, hesitantly moved over and held her in her arms, "Zhuzhu, can mother use those flowers to pay for medicine to treat your brother's leg?"
Before she could finish, Zhuzhu nodded her head vigorously, the little fat on her face trembling, and answered seriously, "Yes! Mom, give it all to the doctor. Brother wants to walk, study and become a high-ranking official!"
Yang Lihua hugged her daughter tightly, tears falling again.
"Okay, okay, Zhuzhu is really my good daughter. I will embroider a better pillow for you!"
Tai Yongning also struggled to hug his sister without saying anything, but there was no need to say anything more.
Old Man Wang was anxious to go back and prepare the medicine, so he stood up and was about to say goodbye.
The old man quickly stopped them and begged, "Two old brothers, especially Brother Wang, treating a wounded person may be a simple matter for you, but for our family, it is a rare hope and we cannot afford any mistakes.
"So, can I ask that after you two leave, if anyone asks, just say you came here today to borrow some money and other things for daily necessities, not to treat my Yongning's injuries? Okay?"
Old man Wang was puzzled by what he heard, but Banxian was very understanding and understood the situation. This request was not a difficult task for them, so they agreed to it without hesitation.
"Okay, this is a small matter. We won't mention healing."
The old man was overjoyed and thanked his daughter-in-law repeatedly. He then asked his daughter-in-law to get a basket, put the pillow wrapped with herbs in it, and added some vegetable buns. Finally, he covered it tightly with a clean cotton cloth.
Tai Jizu harnessed the Jifeng and pulled the cart to send the two back to the city.
There were a few villagers chatting under a big tree at the entrance of the village. I saw it and couldn't help but ask a few questions.
Yang Lihua suppressed her joy and said, "These two people are from the city. One of them is a fortune teller who runs a stall. He was the one who calculated the auspicious day for the roof beam raising at home. Today, I'm in trouble and came to ask for help."
Several villagers nodded as they listened, but didn't take it to heart.
After all, Uncle Six's family has become wealthy, and this is known to everyone in and outside the city, so it's not surprising that someone would come to ask for money.
But one of them felt as if he had been scratched by a cat and felt that he had suffered a great loss.
That’s Tai Jijin’s mother!
The day before yesterday, her daughter-in-law came home in a daze. She scolded her a lot, and she knew it was because of the "burden" who was still alive.
To be honest, she regrets that she has become such a burden today.
If she had known that she could clean up the thing and make the burden look like a human being, she would not have let him go.
Even if you marry into any family, you can get a betrothal gift of two taels of silver!
If anyone knew what she was thinking, they would definitely spit in her face.
Chunhong is now a decent person, and it was the Tai family who saved and raised her. What does it have to do with her?
Isn't this someone planting trees, and she plans to pick the fruits?
But Grandma Tai Jijin didn't think she was wrong, instead she felt justified.
Seeing Yang Lihua turn around and enter the yard, she followed her.
The villagers were talking, and when they saw this, the fire of gossip ignited in their hearts.
"What is this old lady going to do?"
"What can I do? She's not a good person. Chunhong was almost tortured to death before, and it was all her fault. I'm afraid she's jealous now that Chunhong is doing well!"
"Yes, yes! That must be the case. I really don't want to lose face!"
"Let's wait and see. If there's a quarrel, we'll go in and speak up for our sister-in-law. This old lady is so unreasonable!"
Not to mention the villagers' gossip and complaints, Yang Lihua just entered the yard when she heard a sound behind her. She turned her head and frowned.
"Why are you here, aunt? Is there something wrong?"
She asked coldly, but Tai Jijin's mother smiled shamelessly and replied, "Oh, what are you talking about, nephew's wife? We are a family, so can't I come and sit down with you?"
Yang Lihua was too impatient to pay attention to her and asked directly, "Aunt, if you have something to say, you'd better tell me quickly. I don't think our family has anything to do with you!"
