"Prescribe the medicine first, Dr. Gu will do his best."
As she spoke, Jiang Nuan glanced at Huang Shan indifferently, her eyes revealing a subtle emotion.
This illness is really no one else's fault.
There's a limit to fooling around. Marrying a wife or taking a concubine is fine, but he just messes around with other people. Who can he blame?
Doctor Gu nodded and handed the prescription to Yu Zhu, saying, "Get the medicine according to the prescription."
After saying that, he turned to Huang Shi and said, "Boil three bowls of water down to one bowl, three meals a day, avoid spicy food and sexual activity, and don't let him do heavy work."
"Understood, thank you, doctor."
"It's just my duty, don't worry about it."
After saying that, Doctor Gu wanted to leave.
Seeing this, Sister-in-law Huang grabbed his sleeve and pleaded, "Doctor, please think of something else. There's definitely hope. Please!"
"I am incompetent, please forgive me, madam."
With difficulty, Dr. Gu pulled Huang's hand away and quickened his pace to leave.
"Yaya, go find another doctor. There must be one who can cure you."
"Sister-in-law, you must trust Dr. Gu's medical skills. Besides, this disease is indeed very difficult to cure completely."
This disease is troublesome even in modern times, let alone in this era.
Without antibiotics or various methods of extracting effective ingredients, the fact that the herbal decoction could suppress the disease only speaks volumes about the ancient doctors' superb medical skills.
"Please, find another doctor."
"Let's look for one last one. No matter what the outcome, there won't be a third one."
According to the rules, one should not seek medical help twice for the same illness. Jiang Nuan, understanding Huang Da Sao's motherly heart, was willing to make some concessions.
But that's all.
She couldn't tolerate Sister-in-law Huang's unreasonable behavior forever.
Ultimately, this is nobody's fault but theirs.
"Thank you, thank you, sister-in-law."
After agreeing, Jiang Nuan did not make excuses and asked someone to invite the most famous doctor in the prefecture overnight.
But in the end, nothing changed.
"How could this be? I don't believe it," Sister-in-law Huang still refused to accept it. "Ya Ya, can you help me hire one more, the last one, okay?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Nuan frowned. "We already agreed that this is the last one."
"But he can't cure the mountains."
"This only shows that Huangshan's problems are indeed difficult to solve."
"No, his medical skills are not good enough. There must be someone who can cure him. Let's keep looking."
“I’m sorry,” Jiang Nuan said coldly, “If you want to look for me, go by yourselves. I’m not going to accompany you.”
She felt she had a clear conscience and couldn't possibly let this family act recklessly.
If you don't want to accept the outcome now, why didn't you discipline them more severely back then?
There must be clues to this; if everyone had paid attention, things wouldn't have turned out this way.
"Ya Ya, he is, after all, your nephew."
"So, I've found him the best doctor."
“But they couldn’t cure him,” Sister Huang said, breaking down. “Dashan is so young, how can he live like this for the rest of his life?”
"It would be the same with anyone else, you should just accept it sooner rather than later."
"Ya Ya," Huang Shi pleaded, "please, help me."
"Is it that I'm not helping, or that you don't want to accept reality?" Jiang Nuan looked coldly at Huang Shi. "Both Doctor Gu and Doctor Liu have excellent reputations. They have done their best. It's that you can't accept the result."
“Father, Mother, let’s go. We won’t beg him,” Huang Shan said, looking at Jiang Nuan with hatred. “She’s unwilling to help, so begging won’t do any good.”
"I'm not willing to help? Have you lost your conscience?" Jiang Nuan's face turned ashen. "Ultimately, this is your fault for not respecting yourself. I, as your aunt, have been running around looking for a doctor. You can be ungrateful if you don't appreciate it, but don't enjoy the benefits while harboring resentment."
So helping someone has turned into making an enemy? I knew I shouldn't have been so soft-hearted.
"Ya Ya, don't take it to heart, Da Shan is still young..."
"That's enough," Jiang Nuan interrupted Sister-in-law Huang directly. "We weren't that close to begin with, but I've done this much, and I have a clear conscience. Butler, see the guests out!"
She's still protecting her baby now; what a loving mother's heart!
I just don't know if Huangshan will appreciate it.
"yes!"
Huangshan's group consisted of only four people, and despite their reluctance, they were still kicked out.
After calming herself down, Jiang Nuan told the old lady what had happened.
"I knew he was hopeless from the start," Old Mrs. Huang couldn't help but shake her head. "I noticed something was off from the beginning. He would just stare at a mandarin duck purse all day long and would be gone for half a day. I reminded him to bring the person back, but he always pretended to be stupid."
With a cold snort, Old Lady Huang continued, "That fool doesn't even consider that someone who can engage in illicit relations with a man can hardly be a good girl."
He thought this incident would cause the Huang family to lose face, but he didn't expect to get himself involved.
That's incredibly stupid.
"No wonder Mother guessed so accurately."
Jiang Nuan touched her nose, surprised by the old lady's alertness.
She wouldn't have thought of it if the old lady hadn't mentioned it.
"His wife has eaten more salt than he has eaten rice. She can tell what he's going to say just by looking at his butt. He's been ruined by women his whole life, and he has no one to blame but himself."
Being infatuated is a good thing, but if you're brainless and can't listen to reason, you deserve to be deceived.
“I’m not going to get involved in their family matters,” Jiang Nuan sighed softly. “It’s a thankless task, and I don’t want to go looking for trouble.”
I wonder if the couple regretted spoiling their child all along.
They certainly didn't think they were wrong; instead, they blamed others.
"He brought it on himself, so we don't need to worry about him."
“Husband, how can she be so heartless? Ever since she married into the Huang family, I’ve always been accommodating to her. Even if I don’t care about the debt of gratitude, I should at least give her some face. Our Dashan is her own nephew, how can she not lend a hand?”
Sister-in-law Huang kept telling herself to be understanding of her younger brother and sister-in-law, but as one thing after another came crashing down on her, she could no longer suppress the resentment in her heart.
Huang Shi didn't reply, his face expressionless and gloomy.
He also harbored resentment.
But she still had a sliver of reason, knowing that this whole thing was ultimately caused by her son.
After much consideration, he turned to the old man who had been silent since entering the villa and asked, "Father, do you have any ideas?"
"No."
"Really not?"
Huang Shi didn't quite believe it.
The old man always had a lot of intricacies and complexities, far beyond what I could ever comprehend.
"Um."
Sister-in-law Huang didn't believe it either. "Dad, you only have Dashan as your grandson now. Please think of a way."
Old Huang shook his head. "I'm not a doctor, there's really nothing I can do."
If he had known this would happen, he shouldn't have put all his eggs in one basket.
Looking back, he realized he had made a foolish mistake. Any normal person would know which was more reliable, four grandsons or one grandson, but he chose the latter.
“Father,” Huang Shi looked directly at the old man, “why didn’t you say anything when we were at the other courtyard?”
I don't want to talk.
"Dashan is your own grandson, can't you say a few good words for him and plead for him?"
He felt that the old man, as the grandfather, didn't care about his grandson at all.
"Does what I say matter?" Old Master Huang said coldly. "Have you forgotten what happened before?"
