In the 1960s,
Wen Han strode towards the door, and was stunned as soon as the door opened.
"Where are you going?" Liu Shuyun was about to push the door open, but seeing his expression, she asked in confusion.
"I, I'll go find the doctor here." Wen Han said.
"Aren't you a doctor yourself? Why are you looking for a doctor? Is Haobo's injury very serious?" Liu Shuyun pushed Wenhan away and hurried in.
"Mom, don't worry, I'm fine. The doctor has examined me and said that I have no broken bones or muscles, only superficial injuries," said Ning Haobo.
Liu Shuyun finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Wen Han and said, "Then why did you go to see a doctor? You scared me."
"I'll call a doctor to help him apply the medicine." Wen Han said in a low voice.
"Can't you just help him apply the ointment?!" Liu Shuyun's anger grew stronger and stronger. If she didn't teach him a lesson today, she was going to get sick from all the anger. "You're a doctor, and he's your husband. Why do you have to go find another doctor just to apply ointment?! If you don't have him in your heart, why did you agree to marry him in the first place?! If it weren't for marrying you, our Haobo would be the champion of today's competition! Don't you realize how much our family has suffered by marrying you?!"
Wen Han had originally lowered his head in silence, but after hearing what he said next, he couldn't help but retort, "He was the one who proposed to me, not me who had to pay for marriage. If he's at a disadvantage, shouldn't I be at a disadvantage, too?"
Wen Han has been spoiled since he was a child, and he is definitely not the type of person who would not talk back even if he was bullied. He still feels aggrieved in his heart. If he hadn't married Ning Haobo, he would be the one marrying He Liyuan now.
Liu Shuyun laughed in anger, "You still feel you're at a disadvantage, right?"
"Mom, please stop arguing. It's giving me a headache..." Ning Haobo advised.
But Liu Shuyun ignored him and continued, "If you feel you're at a disadvantage, don't agree to marry him! You feel at a disadvantage because He Liyuan is fine now. If he were still lying half-dead in bed, would you still feel at a disadvantage?! If it weren't for you, our Haobo wouldn't have regretted the engagement. Now it's Yue Ruqing who's marrying into our family! It's our family that's being envied and sought after by so many people!"
"Since you think Yue Ruqing is so good, why did you break off the engagement? If you have the guts, go ask him now if he is still willing to marry into your family? Compared to your family, everyone would choose the He family!" Wen Han's temper also broke out. He said what was in his heart without caring about anything else, then turned and left.
"You! You..." Liu Shuyun was shaking with anger. She pointed at Wen Han and was speechless. Seeing Wen Han turn and leave, she shouted loudly, "Come back here! Explain yourself clearly!"
Liu Shuyun was so excited that she wanted to chase after him.
"Mom!" Ning Haobo stood up and tried to stop her, but he lost his balance and fell to the ground.
When Liu Shuyun heard the sound of someone falling, she immediately turned around and ran over to help Ning Haobo. "Son, how are you? Are you hurt?"
"I'm fine..." Ning Haobo endured the pain, climbed onto the bed and lay down, saying, "Mom, please stop arguing with Wenhan. We're all family, can't we just be harmonious?"
"You're still speaking for him?!" Liu Shuyun was distressed and angry. "Listen to what he said! How could you talk back to your mother-in-law like that? If I spoke to your grandma like that, your dad would slap me in the face. Why don't you side with your mom and speak for him?"
"I'm not on his side either." Ning Haobo saw his mother was about to cry, and immediately comforted her, "I just don't want you to quarrel. It's not good to damage the harmony of the family."
"What family?!" Liu Shuyun shouted, "Does he really consider you his husband and us his family? He only has He Liyuan in his heart! You came down from the arena, injured like this, and he didn't even bother to come and check on you. Instead, he ran to see He Liyuan! He doesn't want to live a good life with you at all. You don't want a wife like this. Divorce him tomorrow!"
"Mom..." Ning Haobo said helplessly, "Can you just say divorce casually? If I really divorce Wenhan, what good will it do me? Can I find someone better than Wenhan?"
Liu Shuyun was just speaking out of anger. She knew that marriage was a big deal and divorce was not something that could be easily decided. Besides, the Wen family was not much worse than theirs, but she still felt uncomfortable.
Under the old lady's instructions, the He family's kitchen prepared a lot of delicious dishes today, especially to celebrate for He Liyuan.
Tao Yuan sat next to the old lady and looked at the medal won by He Liyuan with her.
The old lady took the medal in her hand, examining it again and again, touching it again and again. This wasn't He Liyuan's first medal, but it was the one that made her happiest and most relieved. Just a few months ago, all the doctors had said there was no hope for her eldest grandson, but now, not only could he run and jump again, he had even won the championship in a military competition.
"It's all thanks to you." The old lady patted Tao Yuan's hand and said, "If it weren't for you, Liyuan would still be lying in bed. How could he have recovered so quickly and participated in the competition and won the championship?"
Sitting on the sofa on the other side, Su Lan said, "Isn't it? Li Yuan also said that this medal is half of Qing's credit."
The old lady placed the medal in Tao Yuan's palm and said seriously, "This should be your medal and your honor. It's just that Li Yuan won it for you!"
"This is my first honor, I will keep it well." Tao Yuan said with a smile.
"There is still a lot of time to come, and you will receive more and more honors," said the old lady.
Tao Yuan nodded seriously.
"Mom, it's time to eat. Let me help you sit over there." Su Lan stood up with a smile.
Tao Yuan also stood up, and the two of them supported the old lady and walked to the dining table in the restaurant and sat down.
"Dad and the others are still in the study," Su Lan said, "I'll go call them."
Not long after, Mr. He and the others came out of the study and walked into the dining room.
After everyone was seated, the family first raised their glasses. Grandpa He said a few simple words, mainly affirming and encouraging He Liyuan and Tao Yuan, and then asked the two to work together to live a better life.
After Mr. He started eating, the whole family picked up their chopsticks and started eating. He Liyuan and Su Lan, who were sitting next to Tao Yuan, kept picking up food for him, and Tao Yuan almost ate too much.
The family talked about He Liyuan winning the championship in the competition. He Liyuan's fourth uncle praised his performance today and asked him to perform well in the next exercise.
Tao Yuan ate a little too much today, and the old lady was happy and ate a little too much, so Tao Yuan pushed the old lady out for a walk.
In the past, the old lady was reluctant to go out because she was in a wheelchair, but now it is different. Even if she goes out in a wheelchair, she can get up and walk around a little.
There were quite a few elderly people who came out for a walk after dinner. When someone greeted Mrs. He, she responded with a smile.
When they arrived at the community garden, Tao Yuan helped the old lady up and walked along the gravel path beside the pond, looking at the big red carp in the pond.
"Mrs. He, come out for a walk. It's been a long time since I saw you out." A fat old lady came over and greeted her with a smile on her face.
"Hasn't it been a while since you've been out?" Mrs. He also smiled and said, "Before, my legs and feet were not good, and it was boring to go out in a wheelchair. Now that I can walk a few steps, I feel like going out for a walk."
"You're much better now. Even your complexion looks much better than before." The fat old lady looked at her and clapped her hands.
"My grandson's wife makes me some nourishing soup every day. How can my complexion be bad? She told me that medicine is not as good as food, and food is not as good as soup."
"You are so lucky to have such a good granddaughter-in-law. It's really enviable."
"Isn't it? He is so old, but he can still be so blessed. But the most blessed one is our Liyuan. Thanks to the blessing of Buddha, he was able to marry such a good daughter-in-law." Whenever someone said that her family had married a good granddaughter-in-law, the old lady would be very happy.
Tao Yuan was worried that the old lady would get tired after walking for so long, so he helped her sit in the pavilion for a while.
Not long after Mrs. He sat down, many old ladies came over to sit and talk to her. Tao Yuan took a walk around to digest his food.
"I bought some Qi-replenishing and Yuan-strengthening paste from Yue's shop some time ago. My complexion has improved a lot in the past few days," said an old lady.
"My daughter-in-law also bought some for me. I'm eating it these past two days. She said she wanted to buy more, but they were out of stock."
"Now you have to queue up to buy them, including the beauty cream, hair blackening cream, and facial balm. My daughter said that every time we try to buy them, we can't get them, so we have the domestic helper wait in line."
"It's because their products are so useful. Even if you have to queue up to buy them, no one is allowed to buy more than they want."
"I think typhoid powder is the best. My grandson always catches colds. He's been drinking a lot of Chinese medicine since he was a kid, which has damaged his stomach. He vomits as soon as he smells the medicine. Now he uses the typhoid powder from Yue's shop. He just needs to mix it with water and drink a cup, and he'll be fine the next day."
People love to join in the fun, and seeing that there were many people sitting in the pavilion chatting, more and more people gathered around.
They were all talking about the Yue family's shop. Tao Yuan had received a lot of dowry from the Yue family, so he wanted to repay them. He wrote down some recipes for them and asked them to make some supplements and skin care products to sell. Even if the spring water in the space was not added, the recipes he gave would definitely be effective.
As for some medicines that are useful but cannot be used casually, Tao Yuan sold the formula to the State Food and Drug Administration, asking them to specify what kind of patients and under what circumstances the medicines can be used, and what kind of people in what circumstances absolutely cannot use them.
Now, the director of the General Pharmaceutical Administration frequently came to Tao Yuan, wanting to buy the formula from him. Instead of selling it all at once, Tao Yuan asked them for shares. They were willing to accept the shares as long as they could get the formula.
The old men and women who were out for a stroll saw everyone sitting in the pavilion talking and went over. Only one old woman stood not far away, looking as if she was thinking about something, standing there blankly.
"Haobo's grandmother, why are you standing here alone? I see everyone is talking in the pavilion, why don't you go over there?"
"I seem to have forgotten something and I was just thinking about it. As I get older, I tend to forget things." Old Mrs. Ning quickly made an excuse.
"Isn't it? I used to forget things a lot. Two months ago, my son bought me some brain-nourishing essence from the Yue Family Shop. I've been taking it for two months, and my memory has improved a lot. You can ask your son to buy it for you and try it."
"Okay, I'll ask him to buy it tomorrow." Old Mrs. Ning said with a somewhat unnatural expression.
"You definitely won't be able to buy it tomorrow. It's so hard to buy now. You have to hurry and buy it before they restock it, otherwise it will be sold out." The old lady suddenly remembered, "Hey, don't your family have a good relationship with the Yue family? Why bother buying it? Just tell them and they'll deliver it to you. It's much more convenient than ours."
"Yes, we are quite familiar with each other, but why would I bother him for such a small matter?"
"Oh, look at me." The old lady suddenly remembered the Ning family's regretful engagement. "Please don't take it to heart. I really don't mean anything else."
"Not really. I didn't know you were such a person. You always say one thing and mean another." Old Lady Ning said, "Okay, go talk to them. I remember what it was. I'm going home now and will talk to you tomorrow."
"Oh, okay."
Old Lady Ning turned around and left quickly. She certainly wasn't in a hurry to go back because of something, but it was too embarrassing to stay.
Wen Han packed up and went back to her parents' home. Later, Hao Bo returned, looking hurt. Knowing Wen Han had gone back, he immediately chased after her. Her daughter-in-law was crying at home, complaining about the bad atmosphere at home. She wanted to go out for some fresh air, but she saw Old Lady He, who hadn't left the house in a while. Everyone was surrounding her, discussing how useful her Yue family's things were. She couldn't go back, nor could she leave.
If she went over there, she would be embarrassed, and so would others. If she just left like that, and someone saw her, they would think she was guilty or something.
They say that a harmonious family brings prosperity, and she certainly hopes that her family will live in harmony. Such quarrels and quarrels will ruin their blessings. She originally disagreed with breaking off the engagement with Yue's family. She had always felt that Yue's children were better than Wenhan. In her heart, family background is not the most important thing. A person's character determines whether they can live a good life.
Looking up and seeing He Liyuan walking towards them, Old Lady Ning turned around and took another route, sighing and shaking her head as she walked. It was their family who broke the agreement first, so now that Yue was unwilling to have anything to do with them, it was not their fault.
Tao Yuan was squatting by the pond watching the fish when a figure stood beside him. He knew who it was without even looking. He stood up and asked, "Have you finished talking to Grandpa and the others?"
"Yeah." He Liyuan touched his face, feeling the temperature. "It's getting dark, let's go home."
Tao Yuan nodded, and the two walked towards the pavilion.
"Grandma, it's getting dark, let's go home." Tao Yuan said to Mrs. He.
"Okay, let's go home." Mrs. He stood up with the help of the two and said to the others, "I'll come and talk to you in a couple of days."
The others said yes and watched them leave.
He Liyuan pushed the wheelchair with one hand and held Tao Yuan's hand with the other. People behind him saw this and said that the couple was a loving couple, and they looked so harmonious and happy that it made people envious.
After returning home, they sat for a while before going back to their rooms to rest.
Tao Yuan went into the bathroom to take a shower. Just as he took off his clothes, He Liyuan opened the door and came in.
After quickly taking off his clothes, He Liyuan walked over and hugged him, and the two stood under the water together.
Tao Yuan applied soap on his body, and He Liyuan stood behind him and rubbed him. At first, he rubbed him very seriously, but then his hands stopped at a certain place and did not move.
Tao Yuan knew what he wanted to do and did not stop him. He leaned on his chest and waited for his desire to rise. Then he supported himself on the wall with his hands and bent his waist.
He Liyuan held his slender waist and rubbed and vented his fiery desire in his body.
