C168 – Not Easy
Tang Yue didn’t stay idle either. While the blood test was taking place, he checked the operating room again. He could not leave behind any tools or herbs that should be prepared.
He was used to doing these things. In his previous life, he had been to the operating table countless times, but this time, he was even more nervous than the first time he had been to the operating table.
He quickly took a few deep breaths to calm himself down.
The blood type was quickly matched. He was glad that Zhao Sanlang’s blood type followed his mother, which saved him a lot of trouble.
However, Tang Yue still let them continue the match. With State Protector’s Wife’s loss of health, Zhao Sanlang alone would not be able to withstand it.
Zhao Sanlang originally thought that he would faint after being drawn out. He did not expect that he would still be able to see his own blood enter his mother’s body through a tube.
He pressed the needle for a quarter of an hour according to Tang Yue’s instructions. After a quarter of an hour, he found that there was only a small spot where the blood was drawn. There was not even a wound.
He exclaimed that it was a miracle. He was more confident in Tang Yue’s medical skills.
Tang Yue’s operation did not go very smoothly. He did not have the Western medicine that he should have, and he did not have the time to do the oxygen bottle. Fortunately, he did not have to take the medicine. After four hours of work, he finally walked out of the operating theater.
“How is my mother?” Zhao Sanlang quickly went forward and asked.
Tang Yue hesitated for a while and decided to tell the truth. “The injury on your mother’s head is not serious. Fortunately, she has a slight concussion and no blood clot in her brain. However, her ninth and tenth vertebrae are broken and her spinal cord is severely damaged. She has suppressed her nerves. For now, we are not sure what the final outcome will be, but you need to be mentally prepared.”
Zhao Sanlang looked at him blankly. “Tell me, what is the most likely outcome? I will listen.”
Tang Yue took a deep breath and said, “Half body failure.”
His spine was broken and his nerves were paralyzed. Tang Yue was sure State Protector’s Wife would not be paralyzed, but it was very likely that she would be paralyzed.
“Then... is she still alive?”
Tang Yue nodded, “Yes.”
Zhao Sanlang wiped his face. His smile was uglier than crying. “Okay, I got it.” He stood at the door of the ward and looked at it a few times. Then, he turned around and rushed out.
“Zhao Sanlang...” Tang Yue called him from behind, but he ran away without looking back.
Tang Yue said to the guards of State Protector Prefecture, “Quickly follow them and take a look. Don’t let your young master do anything stupid.”
Tang Yue did not know what Zhao Sanlang would do. He sat down with the three old doctors and talked about State Protector’s Wife’s later treatment in detail. The three stinky leather craftsmen had competed with Zhuge Liang. Tang Yue would never think that his medical skills were the best.
Tang Yue only had time to rest after they had decided on the plan and wrote down the latest prescription.
The installation of the prescription came in with food. “Master, quickly eat something. You must be hungry.”
Tang Yue took the chopsticks and ate a few mouthfuls of food. The food in his mouth was bland and tasteless, but he did not care too much. He quickly ate 70% of the food and put down the chopsticks.
Seeing Xiang Ann looking at him with sparkling eyes, Tang Yue pinched his nose. “What’s wrong? Are you still angry?”
Xiang Ann shook his head. “No, Master’s words are all reasonable. One day, I will follow you into the operating theater.”
Tang Yue smiled. “No, you should say that one day, you will lead a surgery and save people.”
“Yes.” Xiang Ann nodded confidently.
That was his biological father, no matter how reasonable he was. Since ancient times, only father beat his son and no son bullied his father.
Before the people he sent came back, Zhao Sanlang went to the door first. He was still wearing the clothes he had worn when he left yesterday. However, his clothes were stained with blood and had many holes on them.
Tang Yue took a deep breath and pulled him closer to the ward. He took the medicine box to treat his wounds. As he treated his wounds, he scolded, “Tell me. Are you a fool? He went to get beaten at this time. Aren’t you afraid that no one will take care of your mother when you fall?”
Zhao Sanlang had a straight face the whole time. He did not even make a sound when alcohol touched his wound. After a while, he said, “I went to take care of my mother in the future.”
Tang Yue used scissors to cut off his clothes that were like cloth strips. He glanced at his skin that was full of blood. He hated State Protector even more. He had never seen such an unreliable father. He was a father in vain.
He was really glad that he had a good father in his life. Compared to him, Yueyang Marquis was simply 24 filial piety.
There were too many wounds. Tang Yue treated them bit by bit. It took him an hour to apply medicine on all the wounds on his body. The serious areas were even bandaged up.
“Tell me, what did you go back to do? How did you get kicked out of the house?”
Zhao Sanlang lowered his head and twisted his fingers. He stood up and changed the topic. “How is my mother? I want to see her.”
“She woke up a moment ago. She took the medicine and fell asleep again. You just need to look at her at the door.”
Zhao Sanlang nodded and walked quickly to the next door. He came back after he finished looking at the person. “Tang Xiaolang, if she was no longer a noble son of a high school and no longer had a prominent family background, would you still treat me as a friend?”
Tang Yue sneered. “You make it sound like you used to have a very prominent family background.”
Tang Yue had been taught to be equal since he was young. Naturally, he did not have any sense of class. Besides, he and Zhao Sanlang did not care about him.
Zhao Sanlang immediately laughed when he heard this. “I knew it... Yesterday, when I returned home, I asked my father to write a divorce letter and removed my name from the family tree. From yesterday onwards, I am no longer a member of the Zhao family.”
No wonder State Protector was so angry that he wanted to beat someone up. If his son said something like that, he would even want to kill someone.
Tang Yue patted his forehead and looked at him speechlessly.
“Do you think I’m stupid too?”
Tang Yue nodded honestly. He admired Zhao Sanlang’s courage to let go, but he did not think it was the best result.
“I know...” Zhao Sanlang bit his lips. “I originally wanted to work hard to improve myself and take over Noble Heir’s position. Then, I would drive the bitch and her son out of State Protector Prefecture. But yesterday, I suddenly felt tired.”
“I am tired of that family and father. The entire State Protector Prefecture is not attractive to me. Even if I get it, I will not feel happy. After what happened yesterday, that place will become a sad place for us mother and son. What is the point of keeping it?”
“When a person doesn’t care about something, no matter how precious it is, it can be abandoned like a shoe.”
Tang Yue could understand his feelings and choice, so he didn’t say anything else. “It’s okay to drive you out of the house, but why would your father agree to write a divorce letter?”
Zhao Sanlang’s lips curled into a mocking smile. He took out a piece of cloth with blood from his still intact sleeve. It was the divorce letter.
“I told him that if he didn’t write the letter of divorce, I would burn down State Protector Prefecture. Not only that, I also wanted to kill that bitch and her son. I can do it as I say!”
Tang Yue raised his eyebrows. He believed that he could really do it. He didn’t know when, but the childish and playful Sanlang of the Zhao family had changed little by little.
“Alright, since you have left, don’t think too much. Do you have a place to stay?”
Zhao Sanlang suddenly changed his expression and said proudly, “Do you think I am not prepared for these annual meetings? That old man has been pampering that slut’s son since he was young and even wanted to make him Noble Heir. I’ve been secretly setting up businesses outside since a few years ago. At that time, I didn’t think too much about it. I thought that even if I were to be kicked out of the house in the future, I wouldn’t starve to death on the streets.”
Tang Yue gave him a thumbs up. He thought to himself. “As expected, the children of aristocratic families are not easy to deal with.”
