Chapter 158: The Money was Still There, But the Person Had Gone

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Wang Yao went to the Agricultural Bureau to look for his sister at 3 pm.

“Hi, Yao, didn’t expect to see you here. What’s up?” asked Wang Ru with a smile.

“I bought an apartment in the town center, and I’ve had it renovated. I don’t live in town, so I want you to move inside,” said Wang Yao.

“What?!” said Wang Ru in surprise. “Where is the apartment?”

“I’ll show you after you finish work,” said Wang Yao.

“Okay, just wait for me,” said Wang Ru.

Wang Ru ran into the building where she worked and came out after a short while.

“Let’s go. I’ve spoken to my manager to have the rest of the day off. Let’s take a look at the apartment,” said Wang Ru.

...

“How big is the apartment?” asked Wang Ru in surprise after they had arrived at the place and looked around.

“It’s 135 square meters,” said Wang Yao.

“And you want me to move here?” asked Wang Ru.

“Yes. You can stay here for as long as you want to. I’ve asked around. The company in charge of property management is pretty good. There are supermarkets and restaurants nearby, and it is close to where you work. What do you think of it?” said Wang Yao.

“I think it’s great! Fantastic! You didn’t disappoint me after so many years I’ve been treating you so well!” said Wang Ru excitedly. She had enough with the unit she was renting.

“Good. It’s decided then. I’ll bring some furniture here soon,” said Wang Yao.

“I’ll pay for the furniture,” said Wang Ru.

“No need. I’ve shopped around in the afternoon and ordered the furniture for you,” said Wang Yao. “You just need to bring yourself when everything’s ready.”

“Great! I have to buy you dinner this evening to express my gratitude,” said Wang Ru.

“Don’t worry about dinner. Let’s go home. You just need to bring a husband,” joked Wang Yao.

“Are you looking for a fight?” said Wang Ru.

“This is the key.” Wang Yao gave the key to his sister. “I will call you after the furniture has arrived,” said Wang Yao.

“Okay, I’ll let our parents know when I go home this weekend,” said Wang Ru.

“You are not a guest; you don’t need to notify Mom and Dad when you go home,” said Wang Yao.

It was dusk when Wang Yao arrived at home. His parents had made dinner for him.

“Did you go to town today?” asked Zhang Xiuying.

“Yes, the apartment has been renovated, and I gave the key to my sister.” Wang Yao had mentioned to his parents that he had bought an apartment but didn’t tell them any details.

“You gave the key to your sister?” asked Wang Fenghua.

“Yes, I’ve finished renovating the apartment. I don’t live in town, so she can stay there as long as she wants to. Otherwise, it’s just gonna be a waste,” said Wang Yao.

“Okay, she can stay there for now,” said Wang Fenghua.

“How is Tong Wei in Dao City?” asked Zhang Xiuying.

“She’s fine,” said Wang Yao.

“Remember to contact her regularly, and if you are available, you should visit her. Dao City is not far from here,” suggested Zhang Xiuying.

“I know,” said Wang Yao.

Wang Yao had promised his parents he would contact Tong Wei, but in fact, he hadn’t called her recently. He only texted Tong Wei in the evening. It was usually Tong Wei who called Wang Yao.

After returning to Nanshan hill, Wang Yao started to prepare for new decoctions. He only picked a few herbs. Apart from the miasma grass, which had a strong effect on human body, all the other herbs had only mild effects and were good for internal organs.

After picking up the herbs, Wang Yao read scriptures for a while as usual before going to sleep.

...

The wind was nice and warm the next day.

It was getting warmer and warmer in spring.

One leaf of miasma grass costs 30 reward points! How expensive! thought Wang Yao.

In order to treat Wei Hai, Wang Yao had to buy miasma grass from the medicine shop. He had all the other herbs for the formula except for miasma grass. Although he had planted miasma grass in his herbal field, he only planted it a short while ago, so the miasma grass was not ready.

It was relatively easy to brew the decoction because there were not many herbs involved. Wang Yao only required five different herbs.

Although only five different herbs were required for the decoction, Wang Yao was very careful when brewing the decoction. Because this was the first time for him to make it. The chances of failure were big.

Wang Yao put herbs into the pot one-by-one.

He added miasma grass into the pot at last. The leaf of miasma grass was straight and hard, like a mini sword. It took a while for the leaf to melt into the water. The decoction smelled nice.

Done!

Wang Yao was distracted when looking at the warm decoction.

The decoction was ready. How should I test its effect?

He subconsciously looked through the window and felt something. San Xian suddenly stood up in his dog house and looked around.

“No.” Wang Yao shook his head.

All the other herbs in the decoction were mild except for miasma grass, which had a strong effect. Wang Yao didn’t want to make San Xian sick. He didn’t want to do more harm than good to San Xian.

“Well, I have to leave it here for now,” murmured Wang Yao.

Then, he started the fire again as he was going to make Regather soup.

Wei Hai’s body was seriously damaged by his disease. He required herbs to consolidate his corporeity. Otherwise, he might not be able to tolerate the miasma grass.

“Mingbao, when can that Dr. Wang finish making my decoctions?” asked Wei Hai to Wang Mingbao.

“This week. I’ve told you numerous times.” Wang Mingbao was speechless as he looked at Wei Hai who had visited him three times in four days.

“Well, I can’t wait anymore,” said Wei Hai.

Wei Hai’s disease had become more and more serious, so he had become more and more nervous and scared. He was so preoccupied with his disease and couldn’t have anything else on his mind. He had spent all his time looking for a good doctor and totally neglected his business. He had left his business in the hands of his relatives, who had been running his business well. He became richer and richer, but his health continued to deteriorate which really annoyed him.

What was the saddest thing in this world? Being dead and leaving all your money behind.

“Can you ask Dr. Wang for me?” asked Wei Hai.

“I know. You just need to rest well at home. Don’t bother coming here,” said Wang Mingbao. He was a bit confused when looking at Wei Hai, who looked like a heavy smoker.

I hope this dude’s disease is not contagious. Well, I should ask Wang Yao after he leaves, thought Wang Mingbao.

Finally, Wei Hai had left. Wang Mingbao called Wang Yao straight away.

“Hello, Mingbao?” Wang Yao was brewing Regather soup.

“Hello Yao, Wei Hai just came here and asked me again when you can have his decoctions ready,” said Wang Mingbao.

“Tomorrow,” said Wang Yao.

“Okay, by the way, I need to ask you something,” said Wang Mingbao.

“What is it?” asked Wang Yao.

“Is his disease contagious?” asked Wang Mingbao.

“Very unlikely,” said Wang Yao. “Why do you ask?”

“He came here quite often in the last few days. I’m a bit scared. You said very unlikely, but there is still a very small chance for me to get infected?” asked Wang Mingbao.

“As long as you don’t drink his blood and eat his flesh,” said Wang Yao with a big smile.

“Okay, good to know. I’ll ask him to come tomorrow,” said Wang Mingbao.

“Okay,” said Wang Yao.

After hanging up the phone, Wang Yao continued to concentrate on brewing the decoctions. It took him the whole afternoon to finish all the work.

Wang Yao had to go to Renhe clinic before visiting Wang Mingbao the next day.

...

It was Wednesday. The weather was not good. It was gloomy and windy.

Wang Yao drove to Renhe clinic first. Pan Jun changed his shift for him, and he met the owner of the clinic the first time. The owner was Pan Jun’s sister; her name was Pan Mei. Pan Mei was in her 40’s. She was plump, pale and looked young.

“Hello, Dr. Wang,” greeted Pan Mei after meeting Wang Yao.

“Hello, Ms. Pan,” greeted Wang Yao.

Wang Yao started working after talking to Pan Jun and Pan Mei briefly.

“Hello, Dr. Wang; you are really here!” Less than ten minutes later, a middle-aged man walked into the clinic room where Wang Yao was. He was smiling at Wang Yao.

“You are?”

Wang Yao remembered him because he had an unusual disease—a headache caused by being overly excited.

“Hi, I came here the last two days but didn’t see you,” said the middle-aged man.

“How are you? Do you still have a headache?” asked Wang Yao.

“I’m fine now. No headache and no stomach ache, thanks to you!” said the middle-aged man with a smile.

“You are welcome. It’s good to know you are fine now,” said Wang Yao.

The middle-aged man left with a smile after thanking Wang Yao again and again.

Wang Yao didn’t have any other patients after the middle-aged man had left until 10 am. An elderly person in her 60’s came into Renhe clinic and was guided to see Wang Yao.

“Hello, Ma’am, how can I help you?” said Wang Yao.

He had a close look at the elderly lady who didn’t look well. She was stumbling when entering the clinical room. Her hair was almost white, and she was a bit kyphotic.

“Hello, young man.” The elderly lady was surprised to see Wang Yao who was so young. She sat down after thinking for a while.

“How can I help you?” asked Wang Yao.

“I have a bad headache, and I can’t sleep well at night,” said the elderly lady. She sounded weak.

“Let me check your pulse first,” said Wang Yao.

“Okay,” said the elderly lady.

Her arm was skinny. There were only bones underneath the skin.

What?

She is so weak! Her blood vessels and meridians are blocked. The Qi in her liver has stagnated. Both her heart and lungs are damaged. This lady’s health is so poor!

“Ma’am, you need to rest and don’t work too much. In addition, try not to get angry,” said Wang Yao.

“Well, I can’t stop being angry and upset. My son and my daughter in law are fighting every single day,” sighed the elderly lady.

“Do you live with your son’s family?” asked Wang Yao.

“Yes, I have to babysit my grandson,” said the elderly lady.

The elderly lady’s phone started to ring when they were talking. She took out her phone.

“Please remember to pick up Tao in the morning. Tao said last night that he wants to eat dumplings with chives inside. By the way, could you also bring some lamb home...” Wang Yao could hear the voice from the other side of the phone.

“Okay,” said the elderly lady. She sounded helpless, lost and unhappy.

She then said to Wang Yao, “People say your children will look after you when you get old. I really don’t think so!”

“Mom, you are really here!” A good-looking woman in her 30’s came in while Wang Yao was speaking to the elderly lady. “I’ve told you I would take you to the hospital,” said the woman.

“The clinic is close to our unit, so I just dropped by to see a doctor here,” said the elderly lady.

“Let’s go. I’ll take you to a proper hospital,” said the woman in her 30’s.

“I have to pick up Tao later,” said the elderly lady.

“Ask Zhang Ling to pick her son up. She’s got nothing to do at home. She doesn’t cook, doesn’t watch her son and doesn’t wash clothes; she’s just like furniture!” said the woman in her 30’s. “I think you should listen to me. Don’t stay here anymore. You can stay at my place or go back to your own home.”

“I can’t do that,” said the elderly lady.

Ding! Ding! The elderly lady’s phone rang again.

“Don’t...”

The elderly lady’s daughter grabbed the phone before her mother could speak.

“Zhao Hongren, do you still have a conscience? Mom helps you watch your son, cook, and do your laundry while you let our mother live in the basement. Why haven’t you divorced your wife? Are you gonna continue to be her servant?!” shouted the woman in her 30’s angrily.

Wang Yao was shocked by her.

“Ming!” said the elderly woman who tried to stop her daughter.

“Mom, let’s go, stay with me. Their son doesn’t just belong to you. Leave your grandson to his parents.” The woman helped her mother stand up and was going to leave.

“Miss, could you please wait?” said Wang Yao with a smile.

“What?” asked the woman as she turned around.

“Your mother is seriously ill, and we shouldn’t delay her treatment. Otherwise, it may become life-threatening,” said Wang Yao kindly.
