“Then why did you reject it? Are you stupid?” Wang Mingbao widened his eyes.
“I told him that I would buy him dinner another day. It is a bit dangerous to return to the hill at night, ” Wang Yao said calmly.
“Hey, you! I have nothing to say!” wang Mingbao said.
After saying goodbye to Wang Mingbao, Wang Yao parked her car at home before returning to the hill.
“Where did the eagle come from?” zhang Xiuying asked as soon as he saw Wang Yao.
“Sorry, I forgot to tell you about the eagle. I hope it doesn't scare you, ” said Wang Yao. It had just occurred to him that he had forgotten to tell his mother about the eagle.
“It's okay. San Xian is here with me,” Zhang Xiuying said. “What happened to his wings?”
“It was injured and fell into the herbal field. He can't fly for now, so I applied some trauma herbs on his wound,” Wang Yao said.
“So, have you bought an apartment?” ask Zhang Xiuying.
“Yes, I bought it on the 3rd floor,” Wang Yao said.
“How big?”
“130 square meter.”
“That's a big apartment! How much will it cost?”
“About 800 thousand yuan,” replied Wang Yao.
“Very expensive!” zhang Xiuying.
“Not too bad. You can't even buy a 20 square meter place with 800 thousand in Beijing and Shanghai, where the property is very expensive! ” Even Wang Yao didn't think he could afford an apartment in big cities like Beijing and Shanghai.
“Again I don't like big cities. The air there is very polluted. You can't even see the sun during the day. People are sick all the time there,” Zhang Xiuying said.
“True, I prefer our village. We have hills, lakes, and forests,” Wang Yao said with a smile.
He loved the rural lifestyle.
“Yes. It would be even better if I had a grandson!” zhang Xiuying.
“Hey, Saturday is coming, will my brother be home?” Wang Yao tried to change the topic immediately. She wanted her mother to focus on her sister.
“She said she was going home,” said Zhang Xiuying.
“OK, I'll pick him up!” said Wang Yao.
“True, you should go to the city more often. There are more girls in this city!” zhang Xiuying.
“I understand. So anyway. Ma'am, time to cook dinner, be careful on the way home,” Wang Yao said.
Wang Yao needed some effort to send his mother away. He went to check on the eagle and gave him some water from an ancient spring to drink. He did not dilute the water at all.
The magic water should help heal his wounds. Like San Xiao, the eagle seemed to know that the water was unusual. It started drinking.
To be honest, this was the first time Wang Yao had seen an eagle drinking water. That's funny to watch. Wang Yao stayed with the eagle for a while before returning to his cottage.
He made a cup of tea for himself and took out a holy book.
Looking at his green herb fields, he felt very peaceful.
On the hill was very quiet.
Wang Yao started reading the scriptures out loud. San Xian listened to him read quietly outside the cottage. Eagles flap their wings from time to time.
Time passed slowly and quietly.
It's getting dark.
Wang Yao returned home to have dinner with his family. He found his father did not look happy.
“What happened dad?” asked Wang Yao.
“Your grandfather went to the hospital today for an examination because he was not feeling well. Doctors found him to have colon cancer, late stage,” Zhang Xiuying said.
Wang Yao remained silent.
He was thinking about his grandfather. He was a skinny old man, always smiling, fond of smoking and drinking a little wine. Her aunt's grandfather had long since died, leaving her grandfather as a single father. It is not easy to raise all children alone. After his children grew up, his grandfather did not want to move to the city. He preferred to live in the village as a farmer where he continued to farm and herd sheep. He visited Wang Yao's house occasionally. He is over 70 years old now. Wang Yao had just seen him herding sheep on a hill a few days ago.
“What do doctors say about his condition?” asked Wang Yao.
That's why his father doesn't look happy. After all, it was his uncle.
“Can you go to town with me tomorrow?” asked Wang Fenghua.
“Sure,” said Wang Yao.
Wang Yao returned to the hill after dinner. He thought about his grandfather.
Cancer is like a death sentence for humans because it is impossible to cure.
Some cancer patients may live longer, but their quality of life will drastically decrease and they will have to tolerate physical and psychological pain.
Is there a magic formula or licorice root in the system that can cure cancer?
Wang Yao opened the system panel, but he did not find any formula, herbs, or licorice root that could be used to cure cancer. He also did not get any clues or answers from the system.
Maybe because of my low level.
The next day, Wang Yao woke up early to work on the herb fields. Her mother came to the hill at 9am to look after the herb fields for her. He went to the city with his father to visit his grandfather.
He bought some gifts for his grandfather before going to the hospital. Wang Yao had not seen his grandfather for quite some time.
At the hospital, his grandfather was weak, fragile, and thin. His uncle and aunt were sitting next to the hospital bed—they all looked sad.
“Maybe we should take dad to the hospital in Wei City, where they have better gear,” said one uncle.
“It won't make any difference,” said another uncle.
It was sad in the hospital room.
Wang Yao's father was a quiet man. In this kind of situation, he was even calmer. He asked how his uncle was doing and then stopped talking. He simply raised his head from time to time to look at the old man lying on the bed.
Grandfather Wang Yao died 3 years ago. His grandfather had 2 brothers. The one in the hospital was his younger brother. Another brother died when he was a teenager.
Wang Yao wanted to help, but he did not know how.
Maybe Regather Soup can work. Wang Yao's eyes became bright.
They both did not stay in the hospital for long. Their relatives drove them out.
Wang Yao met Tong Wei unexpectedly in the waiting room of the hospital.
“Hai, Wang Yao, why are you here?” ask Tong Wei.
“My father and I came to visit a relative,” Wang Yao said.
“Halo, uncle” Tong Wei turned to Wang Yao's father with a smile.
“Halo,” Wang Fenghua also smiled. He seemed to be happy to see Tong Wei as well.
“Do you have time this morning?” ask Tong Wei.
“Well, I have to drive my father home,” said Wang Yao.
“No need! I'll take the bus, you stay!” wang Fenghua said immediately.
“How about we all have lunch together? Treat Me, ” Tong Wei said with a smile.
“Thank you, but I really have to go,” said Wang Yao, “Oke, dad, let me take you to the bus stop.”
“I know where the bus stop is,” Wang Fenghua said.
“Let me drop you off,” said Wang Yao.
“I'll call you later,” said Tong Wei.
“OK, sounds good,” said Wang Yao.
Wang Yao escorted his father to the bus stop after saying goodbye to Tong Wei.
