Uncle Ding Sanye and Old Dingtou are brothers from the same clan. The current clan leader is Uncle Ding Sanye's eldest brother. In the countryside, especially in large clans, the clan leader has a very high prestige. People in the clan call the clan leader Uncle Ding, and his brothers are naturally called Second Uncle and Third Uncle.
In reality, Third Master Ding wasn't particularly old, only forty-five, fifteen or sixteen years younger than his eldest brother. He and Old Ding had many uncles and brothers in the clan, so if they really got into a fight, it might end up being a brawl between the same clan members.
Uncle Ding San is not stupid. The family of Ding Laosi is living better and better after being separated. Youtian's wife will definitely not give the secret water to Old Dingtou and his family. Now the whole village is waiting to see Old Dingtou's family make a fool of themselves. If he fights with Old Dingtou at this time and triggers an intra-clan fight, it will overshadow the affairs of Old Dingtou's family, and it will not just be Old Dingtou's family that will be laughed at.
He won't be fooled.
He had already taught Ding Yang and Ding Jian a lesson, and the two brothers had also been forgiven by the Ma family. This morning, his eldest brother even praised him for handling the matter properly and not relying on his power as the eldest brother to bully people from other families in the village, which made him proud.
Now, thanks to Youtian's wife, their two sons have caught a muntjac. Old Ding is so angry that he is deliberately looking for trouble.
Then let him be angry again!
Uncle Ding San deliberately asked the people working next to him whether they had used the secret water prepared by Youtian's wife to set traps in the morning. If they had, they would go up the mountain to check after work. Maybe they had also trapped a muntjac like his family.
When he mentioned this, the interest of those who had been waiting to see the fun suddenly turned to the secret water. Someone said, "Youtian's wife is really capable. Carpenter Xu said his eldest son just made a random trap, and in no time he went back to check, he caught a big bird. Maybe the wild animals in the mountains like the taste of Youtian's secret water. It works every time. Brother Mai from the Ma family and Youtian's wife each caught a large antelope today!"
"Then I must hurry to work, and when I'm done I'll go and see if I can catch a couple of gugu birds in my pit."
"Stop talking nonsense and get to work. I'll go up and take a look after work. If I'm lucky, I can eat meat tonight."
Thinking of having meat to eat, everyone became very motivated. Old Ding and his son were so angry. It was obviously their family that had the secret water, and they were the family that they had least hope for in the past. But now they were the only family in the village that couldn't get the secret water. Isn't that infuriating?
It’s right to make people angry!
Uncle Ding San started humming a little tune again... He had just hummed a few lines when he heard the sound of horse hooves coming from the village entrance, and many people turned their heads to look at the village entrance.
The carriage came to a stop by the roadside, the curtains opened, and Yang Jinyu got out. He walked towards Old Ding, who was squatting on the roadside smoking. He bowed and said, "Old man, I want to ask you something. There's a woman named Jian in your village who's skilled in medicine. How do I get to her house?"
Old Ding was very angry. When he heard that he was asking about the Jian family, he didn't even raise his eyelids and ignored him.
Is this old man deaf?
Yang Jinyu was just wondering when a villager who recognized him came over and greeted him. "Isn't this Doctor Yang from the Puren Hall in town? Doctor Yang, you're not here to invite Youtian's wife to work in your clinic, are you? Then you've made the right choice. Her medical skills are incredible; she can even cure tuberculosis."
Yang Jinyu said, "My grandfather has this idea, but I don't know if Madam Jian is willing. I just heard you say that Madam Jian can also treat tuberculosis, right?"
"Of course not. Ding Pingshun from our village has been suffering from tuberculosis for many years. Youtian's wife said it can be cured and he will be fully recovered in three months at most."
Some villagers who didn't know about this said that Jian was going to heaven. No wonder even Doctor Yang from Pu Ren Tang wanted to invite her to sit in the clinic.
Awesome, there is a wife named Youtian.
The villagers all praised Ding Youtian for being lucky enough to marry such an awesome wife.
Lao Wu looked at his father and felt a little resentful. Originally, that woman should have been his wife. Back then, his father wanted to give Jian to him, and these people in the village wanted to exchange a penny for the secret water?
You’re dreaming!
He won't change it even if you give him one or two taels of silver!
Yang Jinyu didn't expect Jian Ning's medical skills to be so amazing. He became more determined to become her disciple. He asked for her home address, bowed to thank her, got back in the carriage, and headed towards the Ding family's old house.
Everyone in the old house was bustling with activity. With the help of Ding Yang and Ding Jian, half of the three stoves were now ready. The two brothers were both skilled workers, and Jian Ning and the Tian and Chang families were all exceptionally nimble. Under Ding Youtian's direction, the Ma brothers, Ding Sheng, and the four children were in charge of mixing the mud, treating it as a fun game.
The four little silver foxes followed their respective little masters, kicking them from time to time, and successfully turned themselves into little mud foxes, causing the four little ones to scream continuously.
Only the civet cat was bored, rolling back and forth on the corridor, trying every means to attract the four little silver foxes to play with it. After being ignored, it simply lay down on its back. It was not until Yang Jinyu stepped into the yard that it rolled over and sat up, staring at him fiercely.
"Brother Ding, excuse me for disturbing you." As Yang Jinyu entered the yard, the first thing he saw was the tall and graceful Ding Youtian. He had thought that he had a good appearance the last time he met him, and this time, seeing that he was wearing a long gown, his temperament was even more extraordinary. He intuitively felt that he was not an ordinary person, and his tone couldn't help but become more respectful.
"I come here uninvited, please forgive me!"
"Brother Yang?" Ding Youtian clasped his fists in return, "I wonder if Brother Yang is visiting my humble home today..." Noticing the waiter standing behind Yang Jinyu with his hands full of gifts, he raised an eyebrow, "Are you here to see my wife?"
Jian Ning heard the sound and walked over.
"Madam Jian, I'm sorry for being so presumptuous." Yang Jinyu said, then bowed to Ding Youtian and replied, "That's right."
Jian Ning asked, "I wonder what Master Yang wants to talk to me about?"
Yang Jinyu originally wanted to say that he was ordered by Taigong to invite her to sit in the hall, but when he saw the equipment placed in her yard, he guessed that she was going to open a winery, and he was afraid that he could not invite her. However, since she was already there, he naturally had to tell her.
As expected, after he told Jane Ning his purpose, she politely declined.
"I am but a country woman, and I am grateful that you have taken a liking to me, Grandpa. Please also tell me that my children are still young and I cannot leave. If I have the chance in the future, I will definitely come to visit you."
"Uncle Yang, do you want to come and play in the mud with us?" Sanniu had a good impression of this uncle with gentle eyes and eyebrows.
Erniu also invited him enthusiastically because he had hugged her last time, "Uncle Yang, come quickly, it's fun."
Of course Yang Jinyu would not miss this opportunity. He said yes with a smile, lifted the hem of his long gown and tucked it into his belt, then rolled up his sleeves and enthusiastically joined the mud-mixing army.
Buddy: “…”
Has he been forgotten by his own master?
He looked at Jian Ning and then at Ding Youtian. They were both speechless because of Yang Jinyu's outgoing manner, but they didn't want to ask her to leave. A visitor was always a guest, especially one who brought gifts.
The guy was smart. Since he had brought the things, there was no reason to take them back. He put down the gift box in his right hand, then stuffed the pieces of cloth tucked under his left armpit into Jane Ning's arms, rolled up his sleeves and joined the mud-mixing army.
His young master has already fallen into the mud, and he, a servant, just stood by and watched. He will definitely be beaten to death by his father-in-law when he returns!
