Ye Erquan arrived at Ye Caiping's house, and Ye Daquan's family also came.
I chatted with Huan'er about things in the capital.
Little Zhuzhu is over two years old. She is beautiful and adorable, running all over the house. When she sees Huan'er, she smiles sweetly and says, "Auntie, hug me."
Ye Huan'er picked her up in one go: "Wow, little Zhuzhu is so smart!"
Grandma Ye asked with a smile, "How is Little Xing'er?"
"He's so clever. He could say 'daddy' and 'mommy' when he was nine months old, and now he walks very steadily."
Ye Erquan listened, feeling both happy and sad: "Xiao Xing'er is only one year old."
"Yes!"
The group chatted for a morning, and when Ye Erquan was about to go back, Old Lady Ye went with him.
As they walked out, Grandma Ye said, "Erquan, Grandpa is a year and a half old now, right? Has anything changed recently?"
Ye Erquan felt a pang of bitterness in his heart: "Still the same old story..."
Grandma Ye was extremely worried.
Unbeknownst to them, the two had already arrived at Ye Erquan's house.
As soon as I entered, I saw Wei Xiaojuan holding her child and sunbathing.
Wei Xiaojuan quickly stood up and said with a smile, "Oh my, Great-Grandma is here! Grandma, please welcome Great-Grandma."
When Ye Yaozu saw Old Lady Ye, he made two "ah ah" sounds, clearly recognizing her.
Grandma Ye beamed with joy, took the child from her, and played with him for a while. Ye Yaozu was not only quiet and couldn't stand, but he couldn't even crawl steadily.
Old Mrs. Ye was extremely worried and cautiously said, "Erquan, why don't we ask Doctor Zhao to take a look?"
Ye Erquan's heart skipped a beat.
See a doctor? Doesn't that mean something bad has happened?
Ye Erquan was unwilling to admit such a thing; that was his precious grandson.
Although he was utterly disappointed in Ye Peng and disliked Wei Xiaojuan, he placed all his hopes on his little ancestor.
He adored his little grandson.
But it was precisely because of his love and attention that his grandson's various abnormalities caused him even more heartache, yet he dared not face his grandson's shortcomings.
Wei Xiaojuan frowned, before she could speak.
Madam Wei rushed out of the room: "Mother, what do you mean? What do you mean by finding a doctor? My great-grandfather is perfectly fine. I already consulted a fortune teller, and the fortune teller said that my great-grandfather was destined for great wealth and honor."
"He's a late bloomer, a late talker! He won't be intelligent until he's three!"
Old Mrs. Ye's face darkened as she looked at Ye Erquan: "Erquan, you tell me! This child is your own grandson! If we go to the doctor now and they say it can't be reversed, it might be too late... It's not like we're short of money! Why don't you take a look?"
Ye Erquan pursed his lips: "Then... let's find Doctor Zhao to take a look?"
It's not that he's unwilling to spend money or anything, but rather that he's reluctant to seek medical help; the more he cares, the less he dares to face it.
Ms. Wei said with a stern face, "What are you looking at? Do you need to look?"
Ye Erquan glared at her, "It's not like I'm spending your money!"
Only then did Mrs. Wei shut her mouth.
Ye Erquan shouted into the house, "Ye Peng, Ye Peng, where did you die? Look for Doctor Zhao, see if he's home."
Ye Peng then came out of the house, walking out with a gloomy expression.
Even now, he hasn't gotten over Ye Jin'er's engagement.
After a while, Ye Peng returned with Doctor Zhao.
Doctor Zhao entered with a smile: "Who's sick?"
I just asked Ye Peng, but he didn't know either; his father sent him.
Ye Erquan pursed his lips, holding the child, unsure of what to say.
Grandma Ye said, "Doctor Zhao, look at Grandpa. He's a year and a half old and still hasn't spoken a word."
Mrs. Wei pursed her lips: "Noble people are slow to speak! My great-grandfather was known for his inability to open his mouth."
Zhao Langzhong's face was somewhat dark.
Grandma Ye continued, "Also, she can't stand up yet!"
Mrs. Wei: "The later they go, the smarter they are! My great-grandmother was supposed to be intelligent at the age of three!"
Ye Erquan glared at her: "Shut up!"
Wei then shrank back.
Wei Xiaojuan and Ye Peng felt a little ashamed and indignant. What did Grandma mean by this? She actually called a doctor to come and see their great-grandfather!
Ye Erquan said, "Zhao Langzhong, look at your grandfather. I always feel that he is a step behind others."
Doctor Zhao had already taken notice of the young master, based on his experience...
Dr. Zhao sighed silently, placed the little boy on the mat on the ground, and began to examine and tease him, asking, "What do you usually eat?"
Ye Erquan then told everyone about his little ancestor's diet.
It's a very normal meal, and even better than what other families provide, so the nutrition is definitely adequate.
Zhao Lang already had a pretty good idea in mind; he was just asking a few more questions to make his argument more convincing. He began with some difficulty:
"You yourselves have noticed this; this child is growing up way too slowly... This is not normal."
Ye Erquan's mind went blank; it felt like it had been blown away.
Although he was somewhat confident, he was still full of hope, wishing that Dr. Zhao would smile and say that children develop at different paces, and although this one was a little slow, it was still fine.
But right now...
Ye Erquan was stunned, somewhat unable to come to his senses: "What do you mean?"
"Yes, what do you mean!" Mrs. Wei exclaimed, as if her hair had been blown off. "What do you mean by 'abnormal'? Yes, my great-grandfather was abnormal! He was called a slow talker! Do you understand? That's what fortune tellers say!"
Ye Peng and Wei Xiaojuan also looked unwell, but in addition to their anger, they were also somewhat afraid.
Dr. Zhao had already guessed they wouldn't accept it, and frowned: "Uh... it's true that some children develop a little slower, but Grandpa here... it's not just his speech or walking, but his reactions are also too slow."
“But if you insist that a wise person is slow to speak… then so be it! But I have already warned you, if he is indeed slow to speak in the future, you can come after me.”
