No matter how angry and how harshly she cursed, the government workers over there had already counted the money. It was indeed 15,800 yuan. Except for the 200 yuan she spent on buying things when she came back to resettle, all the money was there. The handover procedures were completed on the spot.
The government staff handed out a donation certificate, said a few words of thanks, and then left. The plainclothes officers also took away Yang's eldest son and his family.
After the people outside the courtyard dispersed, Master Yang said to Luo Qiao and Yuan Jiayi who were standing aside, "I'm sorry to have made a fool of myself. Please sit inside."
Luo Qiao walked in, put down her things, and looked at Grandma Yang who had not yet recovered: "You still have me, I will take good care of you."
Grandma Yang burst into tears: "Good boy, we have no other choice. If we don't do this, we may not be able to save him."
Luo Qiao was a little confused after hearing this and looked at Grandpa Yang standing beside her.
Grandpa Yang said, "Shumin, stop crying and don't scare them."
Grandma Yang wiped away her tears and said, "I am so sorry for making you laugh."
After Grandma Yang calmed down, she heard Grandpa Yang explain why he had to donate the money. It turned out that his eldest son had been framed and lost money in gambling not long ago, and the person who framed him was an acquaintance.
The man came for the money from the old couple, but the eldest brother now refused to listen to others and instigated his family to take the money from them. The other two families were also afraid that he would give the money to the eldest brother privately, so they came to make trouble every few days.
They had put a lot of thought into this year for the money in their hands, and were even instigated by others to think that the money should be theirs. The eldest brother thought that even if they lost some money, they would definitely not just leave the money alone.
Mr. Yang then thought of donating all the money so that they would give up the idea and become down-to-earth people instead of just dreaming about good things.
After knowing the truth, Luo Qiao admired the old couple of the Yang family. When she was on the farm, the old couple of the Yang family did not allow her to call them master, saying that they were afraid that she would be implicated if something happened. However, the two of them taught the original owner what they had learned throughout their lives.
Luo Qiao comforted Grandma Yang for a while, and then they talked about Luo Qiao's life and study. Luo Qiao took out the tea he brought and the skin care products he made himself.
The old couple felt much better. Luo Qiao told Mr. Yang again about the acupuncture he performed today. He analyzed the patient's condition with his own judgment and guess, and the two discussed it for a while.
Seeing that they were talking about business, Grandma Yang went to the kitchen to clean up and cook. Seeing that Yuan Jiayi couldn't get a word in, he also took the initiative to go to the kitchen to help.
After the master and disciple finished talking, the meal for Grandma Yang was ready, and they moved to the dining table. Grandpa Yang's hands were broken because he was stepped on by someone during the persecution, so he could not give acupuncture now.
Today he heard that Luo Qiao had started giving people acupuncture, and it was very successful. He was really excited. He thought his medical skills finally had successors.
Now both of them are contributing their remaining energy to the school and returning to the podium. They are filled with emotion. Today, Mr. Yang was in a mixed mood and even drank too much. He is a good drinker and fell asleep after drinking too much.
After helping to clean up, Luo Qiao took Grandpa Yang's pulse, sat down and chatted with Grandma Yang for a while, and after confirming that Grandpa Yang was fine, she said goodbye to Yuan Jiayi and left.
The Yang family's house is a bungalow, and if they want to live there in winter, they have to light a stove in the house. There is no central heating in this area, so Luo Qiao decided to move back to the Yuan family to avoid causing trouble for Grandma Yang.
After Luo Qiao and the others left, when Grandma Yang was packing up, she found a bag of medicinal herbs among the gifts Luo Qiao had brought. They were all top-quality warming and tonic herbs, which made Yang Shumin's eyes tear up.
This child must have known about the family's affairs for a long time. He was afraid that the two old people could not bear it, so he prepared such high-quality medicinal materials for them. It was really thoughtful of him.
