Chapter 237： good sign

Chapter 237 Good Omen

Old Mrs. Li quickly sent someone to ask for Dr. Zhang. Dr. Zhang was taking a nap in the row room and came over soon.

When he opened the brocade box and saw the wild ginseng with intact roots, the old man was very happy, "Good boy, you have a conscience and didn't waste my time on you."

The king stood up and gave a big salute, "Thank you so much to the miracle doctor for relieving my pain and saving my life. No amount of expensive gifts of thanks are enough to repay this great kindness."

Divine Doctor Zhang waved his hand, but he was still straightforward, "If you want to thank me, this wild ginseng is enough. You'd better thank your mother and brothers, they have endured a lot of hardships for you."

Mrs. Li's eyes were full of hope and she asked cautiously: "Boss, you still can't remember?"

Wang Yuanwai subconsciously touched the back of his head and replied: "I still can't remember it yet, but I think it will soon. I have been dreaming a lot lately, dreaming about a lot of old things. Maybe that day I suddenly dreamed about my childhood."

"Yes, that's it. This is a good sign!" Doctor Zhang immediately grabbed his wrist and began to diagnose his pulse. At the end, he said happily: "I will adjust the prescription for you, and you can continue to take it. If you are lucky, maybe three or five I can remember it in a day, but if I’m unlucky, I can remember it in two months.”

Mrs. Li burst into tears with joy. Her son, who had been missing for many years, was finally found but could not recognize him. This was a great pain for the mother.

Finally it’s time to see the end…

Jiayin felt sorry for her grandma and quickly climbed into the old lady's arms. She pulled up her sleeves and wiped her tears, "Grandma, if you don't cry, Fu Niu will give you the small fish to eat."

As she spoke, she raised the small jade goldfish in her hand.

I don’t know where Wang Yuanwai bought the gadgets. The blue jade stones were tinged with light red at one end and the other, so they were carved into the head and tail of a goldfish. They were vivid and lifelike.

As expected, Old Mrs. Li was amused, "You greedy girl, this is made of stone, you can't eat it! Do you want to knock out grandma's big teeth?!"

Jiayin smiled and said nothing, and stuffed the little goldfish into his mouth again, causing the old lady to coax it away and forget about the sadness just now.

Wang Yuanwai secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he turned to the shopping street and chose such a gadget for the little girl. Otherwise, he felt distressed when the old lady shed tears, but since her identity was not completely confirmed, he didn't know how to persuade her.

Having this smart and filial little girl here solved a big problem for him.

Soon, Doctor Zhang wrote a new prescription and tied Wang Yuanwai’s head into a hedgehog.

 Taking advantage of this time, the old lady wanted to get something for her eldest son as a return gift.

But the only vegetables at home are vegetables from the garden, and the only specialty of the village is hot springs, which cannot be taken away...

So, she hesitated for a while, and carried her granddaughter to the west wing, which served as a small warehouse.

“Fu Niu, do you have any good things there that you can bring back to your uncle? Of course, if not, don’t force it, grandma doesn’t want you...”

As soon as the old lady finished speaking, her granddaughter pulled her to look at the Kang.

It turns out that there are two baskets of apples, two baskets of pears, and two baskets of dates piled on the kang.

Just now I picked up the little goldfish from Uncle Cheap, and Jiayin was already thinking about a return gift.

Now everyone in Xindu probably knows that cold melons and cantaloupes come from Suijintan. Uncle Cheap doesn't want to expose his relationship with the Li family for the time being. Even if there is some stock left in the courtyard, he can't take it as a return gift.

Fortunately, at this time of year, the apples, pears and dates in the courtyard are all ripe.

Moreover, these are all varieties that have been optimized through many generations of grafting in previous lives. They are definitely worthy of giving as gifts in this time and space.

Sure enough, Mrs. Li was very happy.

These big red apples, yellow pears, and plump and sweet dates are so delightful.

She thought for a while and started to divide the basket into four parts.

In addition to the eldest son, there are also the Liu family, Mr. Wen and Mrs. Cui who want to send festive gifts.

When Wang Yuan had finished acupuncture and was about to leave, he got a basket of good fruits and a basket of dates. Seeing that Mrs. Li was smiling, he didn't refuse. He even picked up a piece of fruit and took a few bites on the spot, making the old lady even happier before leaving.

As a result, the Wang family’s carriage had not left for a long time when Sister-in-law Qiong brought someone to deliver the holiday gifts.

Mrs. Cui is busy and can't come, but she has made abundant preparations for the festival, including chicken, fish, meat and eggs.

Mr. Wen sent some paper, ink, pens and inkstones and a good tea set, while Liu Zhiheng prepared four pieces of fine cotton and four boxes of snacks, entrusting the Cui family to deliver them together.

These three festival gifts are not expensive, but they are carefully selected, and they are also used by the Li family.

Mrs. Li hurriedly moved the fruits and dates that had been divided into the car into the car, and also moved six jars of meat, all of which Tao Hongying had made before. There were exactly two jars for each family.

If these things are given away to outsiders, these things will not be considered very decent, but the Liu family, the Cui family, and Mr. Wen are all considered members of the family, so naturally they can get whatever benefits they can get.

As expected, Sister-in-law Qiong sent the return gift to the Liu family. Liu Zhiheng was so happy that he asked the kitchen to make a pot of meat and beans stewed that night. He also focused on the fruits and dates.

There is no shortage of fruit here in Xindu. Not to mention the various orchards, it is also easy to find wild fruits in the mountains.

But it’s so rare to have these sent by the Li family, which look and taste so good.

Unfortunately, as soon as he said a few words, his old father poured cold water on him.

After all, the Li family has not spoken. Whether it is because they don’t want to sell or they don’t have enough to sell, asking the Li family at this time will make things difficult for the Li family!

On the morning of August 14th, pigs were killed in the village and the meat was divided into fine noodles. In the afternoon, Li Laosan and his family finally came back with Jiaren and Gou Sheng'er.

The academy had a three-day holiday, which was enough for them to come back and reunite.

Aunt Wu and Uncle Wu came to pick up their son and went back happily. The Li family also had dinner together.

The old lady’s biggest wish has always been to have children and grandchildren, and to have enough food and clothing. Although she is still missing an eldest son, her return is just around the corner.

The old lady was so happy that she poured half a bowl of wine and drank it with her sons.

As a result, before getting off the table, the old lady got drunk and fell asleep, making everyone feel sad and funny...

On the second day, Jiaren carried his sister on his back and led his brothers for a walk around the house for half a morning before finally feeling relieved from the pain of homesickness.

 Zhao Yuru and Li Laosan followed the old lady to pick vegetables and work, talking about the big and small things in the shop, and asking about the valley and the village. It was also very lively.

For Mid-Autumn Festival reunion, the focus has always been on the last two words.

No matter how good the food and drink is, no matter how wonderful the day is, it will be more wonderful if the whole family stays together.

In the courtyard of the Wang family in the south of the city, Wang Yuanwai was holding the cat brother and eating some fruit. When he saw Wang Fu come in, he chased his son away and said, "Go and tell your mother that you should add some braised pork to your dinner."

Brother Cat likes to eat braised pork the most, so he ran away in a flash.

Wang Fu then stepped forward and said, "Master, Uncle Zhong went to the courtyard in the west of the city to see the master. Yesterday, people from the casino went to his house again. He must not be able to bear it anymore."

Wang Yuanwai nodded, called the book boy outside the door to explain, and took Wang Fu out.

In the small courtyard in the west of the city, Uncle Zhong was sitting awkwardly on a small stool, looking even more embarrassed than the last time they met.

Not only is his hair all white, his clothes are even more shabby, and his hands are stained with mud.

As soon as the courtyard door opened and Wang Yuanwai walked in, he couldn't bear it anymore and fell to his knees directly, crying with tears.

“Uncle, I am willing to say anything. Please save our family!”
