“About how long will you stay in the county town? Our daughter is getting married in December, you have to take charge at home!” Mrs. Sun asked nervously.Yang Huazhong smiled: “You’re asking such a silly question! Of course I have to be at home to make arrangements for our daughter’s wedding. Besides, it's only early November now, and our daughter is getting married on the 20th of December. There's still a month or so left, no need to rush!”

"Besides, I'm only going to the county town for a few days. Don't worry about me. Just take good care of Feng'er at home!"

Thus, the next morning, Yang Huazhong hurried to Wanghai County in a carriage.

Yang Yongqing didn't go this time because his little daughter caught a cold these two days and the child has some diarrhea.

Although Yang Yongqing was completely blocked in everything else, there was one opening left for his daughter.

When the child had diarrhea, Mo kept pulling open her clothes to force-feed her despite being foolish. Jin would sometimes go off to change diapers or something and wasn't paying attention, so the child would be held in Mo's arms and forcibly fed again. Jin couldn't stop her even if she tried.

So Yang Yongqing told Yang Huazhong that he would stay at home these days to look after his daughter and not go to the county town.

Yang Huazhong naturally wouldn't force it, so he went to the county town alone.

Before it fell, he rushed to the city of Wanghai County and went straight to Yida Medical Hall in the county. He called a medical hall attendant to take him to the ward area in the backyard where he found Yang Yongjin.

At that time, Yang Yongjin was just coming out of the ward, holding a food container in his hand, hurrying towards the front door of the clinic, and happened to meet Yang Huazhong face-to-face.

Yang Yongjin was dumbfounded: "Uncle Three, why are you here?"

Yang Huazhong said, "Your grandpa sent the young boy back, saying that he couldn't hold out here and asked me to come over quickly and help." Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Yang Yongjin's expression was a bit odd: "What? I clearly told him not to come back to the village and disturb all of you. He can take care of himself here. I come over every day to bring him two meals. Even if Qing Xiazi isn't here, he can manage. So why did you have to travel all this way to call your third uncle?"

Yang Huazhong was stunned for a moment, then repeated Yang Yongqing's account to Yang Yongjin.

Yang Yongjin was furious. "My grandpa is being ridiculous! Other families celebrate good news and keep bad news quiet, but he picks out all the negative things and exaggerates them! I can't believe him!"

>

Yang Huazhong also had a displeased look on his face, but since everyone was already here, it was impossible to go back now. He asked Yang Yongjin for the real situation.

Yang Yongjin said: "Let me just say this, the doctor said that my elder brother had a problem with his brain, and he's been treating it for the past two days, taking medicine and cooperating well."

>

“But two days later, the doctor wanted to give my elder brother an injection. My elder brother didn't even resist much, but my grandfather got anxious and stopped him. He said that my elder brother’s hands were meant to hold a pen and take the civil service exams. If this acupuncture damaged his tendons, he wouldn't be able to hold a pen in the future, let alone write beautiful characters to satisfy the examiners! He desperately refused to let the doctor give the injection.”

"My older brother wasn't very steady to begin with, and now that he's been brought up like this by my grandpa, he resists needles even more. He cries and makes a fuss like a little child, and when he gets angry his strength is great, he even pushed my grandpa over."

“Later, when I arrived, several people pinned him down. The doctor at the clinic said this wouldn't do; we had to tie him up with rope and give him injections. We couldn't let him refuse treatment!”

“But my grandpa absolutely refuses to let them do it. We're at an impasse! I was just about to go to the front yard and tell the doctor that no matter what, we have to tie him up. We can’t listen to my grandpa!”

Hearing this, Yang Huazhong nodded: "If the doctor says how to treat it, we should listen to the doctor. They are professionals in this field."

"Besides, acupuncture is for treating illnesses. The doctor knows how to give the right amount of needles and won't cause any damage. That year when Dayan fell ill, she also received acupuncture. It was Qing'er who gave her needles, and her whole arm was covered in them. I didn't see that Dayan developed any problems with writing afterwards!" Yang Huazhong added.

Yang Yongjin nodded repeatedly: "Uncle Three, since you're here, let's go see them in the ward together. Grandpa is there too."

Yang Huazhong nodded, and the uncle and nephew walked towards the ward together. On the way, Yang Huazhong glanced at the lunch box in Yang Yongjin's hand.

"Have they eaten?" the man asked.

Before Yang Yongqing returned, he recounted that both Lao Yangtou and Yang Yongxian had lost their appetites. Yang Yongxian was sick and refused to eat, while Lao Yangtou simply lacked the heart to do so. As a result, they had both lost significant weight.

Yang Huazhong was a little worried. This morning, before he left, he asked Sun's to make some glutinous rice cakes with preserved vegetables and bring them to the county town.

Only listening to Yang Yongjin shake the lunch box in his hand and said: "I ate, my elder brother's appetite has always been small, bringing three dishes and one soup eight percent are eaten by grandpa, grandpa even praised our restaurant's dishes are delicious, let me Ming bring him a pot of wine, I said that it was impossible, accompany patients at the medical hall and drink? The doctor doesn't allow it, and I can't bring it! Grandpa is a little unhappy, and he didn't say hello to me when I left."

Hearing this, Yang Huazhong's mouth twitched violently a few times, a surge of anger rising in his chest.

He held back for the moment and followed Yang Yongjin into the ward.

In the ward, there were two beds. Yang Yongxian slept on one, and the other was occupied by Lao Yangtou. He lay there with his shoes still on, his legs crossed, a pipe in his hand, puffing away contentedly.

When Old Yang saw Yang Yongjin and Yang Huazhong walk in together, he immediately put down his pipe and crossed legs and sat up. He then put on a mournful face and rushed to Yang Huazhong, grabbing his arm: "Third son, you're finally here! If you hadn't come, father would have no backbone at all!"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate! ?

Yang Huazhong pulled his arm out of Lao Yangtou's palm and said coldly, "Father, you seem to be living quite comfortably here. I haven't seen you in a few days, but your cheeks have gotten fuller. It seems Yongjin has been sending you meals and taking care of you very well every day."

>

Old Yang's head froze for a moment, seeing that Yang Huazhong was unhappy. The old man hung his face and said: "I know you are blaming me for lying to you and bringing you to the county town. I had no choice, either. You also saw that people away from home are
(feeling out of sorts), not to mention this is a matter of seeking medical attention? I'm dying of sadness here, really driven to desperation by my circumstances, so I had no choice but to call you over."

"Father's getting older, he's no use anymore. The doctor says things I don't understand, and I don't dare ask or say anything. I'm afraid to speak up because Father is old and doesn't know how things work outside. I'm worried he might be tricked. Yongjin and Yongqing are young, so after thinking it over, I can only call you here to take charge. Don't blame Father, alright!"

Before Yang Huazhong could even speak, Yang Yongjin was already unhappy.

"Master, are you implying that I'm a clueless kid who can't even make decisions for myself?" he asked.

He's the shopkeeper of Tianxiang Lou in the county! He greets and sends off countless people every day, dealing with all sorts of people from all walks of life. He handles everything with ease, yet when he's in your presence, he seems to revert back to that clueless teenager from Changping Village! Unacceptable!
