Boss, He’s Becoming a Father (Arc 4) Chapter 84.2: Playful Son (56)
Wei Ran heard the words, the corners of her mouth twitched, and she said, “If I can marry him, even if I die now, it’s worth it.”
Then she looked at her husband.
Wei Yuan felt guilty when she said that, but he still said, “Don’t say such depressing words. You will definitely get better.”
Wei Ran said, “I know, I can’t get better.”
Shao Yu finally spoke up at this time and said, “We can save her.”
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present was stunned.
Wei Yuan’s expression was unnatural for a moment, but he quickly concealed it. He seemed to be in disbelief and asked Shao Yu: “Doctor, can you really cure it?”
Shao Yu nodded.
Wei Yuan reluctantly said, “This… This is really great.”
When Shao Jiashu heard this, tears welled up in her eyes and she said, “That’s great. I knew that you two, who are so loving, would definitely grow old together.”
Shao Jiashu’s face was filled with joy at having finally found the right couple, and her joy even exceeded that of the two main characters.
Wei Ran asked, “Thank you for your hard work, doctor. How do you plan to treat me?”
Shao Yu said: “Take medicine first, then acupuncture, it will be cured in about a month.”
Upon hearing this, Wei Ran said, “It’s so troublesome, doctor, I won’t treat it anymore.”
Wei Ran spoke lightly, as if what she was giving up was not her own life, but a handkerchief.
Shao Yu frowned slightly when he heard this, but Shao Jiashu was already anxious and said, “Sister, although this month’s treatment may be a little hard, but you can grow old, don’t you want to accompany your husband for a lifetime?”
Wei Ran heard this, shook her head, and said softly: “Sister, not everyone can endure hardship.”
Shao Jiashu was surprised for a moment when she revealed her female body, but she quickly said, “It’s only one month. One month of suffering can be exchanged for decades of sweetness.”
But Wei Ran still didn’t nod, and said to her husband very persistently: “Husband, please see the doctor off for me, and don’t forget to pay the consultation fee.”
After Wei Ran finished speaking, she slowly walked into the inner room.
Wei Yuan forced a smile at Shao Yu and the others, and then said to Shao Yu: “Doctor, how do you plan to treat her? Tell me, I will persuade her to accept the treatment.”
Shao Yu said: “If you really want her to recover, then go and prepare some medicinal herbs.”
Wei Yuan hurriedly asked, “What kind of herbs? How much does it cost?”
“The rest are easy to solve. You should first find a way to get these two: 100-year-old ginseng and 100-year-old Polygonum multiflorum.” Shao Yu seemed to be afraid that he would not take it seriously, and said, “Remember, if it is not 100 years old, it is useless. It must be 100 years old.”
Wei Yuan sighed and said, “I don’t know where to find such precious medicinal materials. I will set off for the prefecture tomorrow. If the prefecture doesn’t have them, I will go to the capital to look for them. I will definitely find these two herbs.”
Shao Yu said, “You can’t run too far. You have to start treatment tomorrow at the latest. If you delay, there will be no cure.”
Wei Yuan nodded vigorously and asked again: “You are a doctor, have you ever heard of these two herbs?”
Shao Yu said: “It seems that you can buy it in the Baoan Hall of the provincial government. You can go and try it.”
The provincial capital is about half a day’s journey from Qingning County.
Upon hearing this, Wei Yuan immediately said, “I’ll pack up and leave right away, and try to be back tonight.”
Wei Yuan politely sent Shao Yu and others out. Even though Shao Yu said that this was a free home consultation, Wei Yuan still forced him to give him two taels of silver as a consultation fee.
Shao Yu left the Wei Mansion, but did not leave. Instead, he turned a corner and sat down in a snack shop.
Shao Jiashu was filled with worry. She had no interest in the delicious snacks. She just said, “Why is Madam Wei like this? She can save lives, but she doesn’t want to live anymore. Isn’t this a waste of Mr. Wei’s efforts?”
Shao Yu said, “Why are you more anxious than them about their business?”
Shao Jiashu said: “It is the most beautiful thing in the world for lovers to finally get married. I don’t want to see them separated by Yin and Yang at all.”
Shao Yu smiled and said, “Don’t worry, Madam Wei will get better.”
Shao Jiashu came over and asked, “Dad, does Bao’an Hall really have those two medicinal herbs?”
Shao Yu nodded and said, “Bao’an Hall has several copies of these two medicinal herbs.”
“Really? How can you be so sure?” Shao Jiashu was puzzled. After all, in her opinion, Shao Yu had never been to the provincial capital, so how could he know what was going on in the provincial capital’s pharmacy.
Shao Yu looked at Ah Hei standing beside him.
Ah Hei laughed and said, “We sold these two herbs to them from our village. They are rare in other places, but people in our village have dug up a lot of them.”
As for why the Divine Stone Clan found good medicine but did not sell it in Qingning County, the reason is very simple. First, the pharmacy in Qingning County was unwilling to give a good price. Second, the former Lord Wu was here, and the people in Divivne Stone Clan felt uncomfortable.
“That’s great, Mrs. Wei is saved.” Shao Jiashu’s mood brightened when she thought of this, and she immediately felt hungry when she saw the bowl of snacks in front of her.
Shao Yu smiled, his eyes fixed on the entrance of the alley, and soon he saw Wei Yuan walking out hurriedly with a bag on his back.
Shao Yu came close to Ah Hei and whispered a few words. Ah Hei picked up the snack in front of him and ate it all in one breath. Then he stood up and followed Wei Yuan.
“Dad?” Shao Jiashu was puzzled by Shao Yu’s behavior.
Shao Yu said, “Ah Hei, follow them. If the people from Baoan Hall refuse to sell, Ah Hei is from Divine Stone Village and has my name card on him. They will naturally give him some face when the time comes.”
Shao Jiashu felt relieved and said, “Dad, you are really thoughtful.”
Shao Yu finished a bowl of snacks slowly and did not leave in a hurry. When the restaurant owner came to settle the bill, he asked casually, “Why did the Wei Mansion in the alley sell so many shops these days?”
Upon hearing this, the restaurant owner said, “What else could it be? Someone in the family is sick.”
Upon hearing this, Shao Yu asked, “Has your illness been cured after selling so many shops?”
The restaurant owner didn’t know that Shao Yu had just come out of Wei Mansion. Seeing that he was also carrying a medicine box, he asked, “Why, do you want to go and recommend yourself?”
Shao Yu nodded.
The boss said, “I advise you to give up this idea. This doctor, not to mention the whole city, even the miracle doctor from other places, can’t cure the disease. You’d better not waste your energy just for the consultation fee.”
Shao Yu said: “Can’t find the cause of the disease?”
The boss nodded.
His restaurant was not far from the Wei family’s home. In addition, there was an aunt with a loud voice at the entrance of the alley. She spread the affairs of the Wei family everywhere, so the restaurant owner knew everything about them.
“Then how did she get sick?”
The boss asked, “How did she get sick? How would I know? She was fine, but she suddenly fell ill, and we can’t even find out the cause. It’s like someone has cast a spell on her.”
Shao Yu raised her eyebrows slightly.
At this time, there were only Shao Yu’s table of customers in the restaurant. They ordered a lot of food and paid generously, so the boss was happy to gossip about the Wei family with Shao Yu. He looked around and lowered his voice and said:
“The Wei family used to be the richest man in Qingning, but it’s just not good in the past few years. It is said that the Wei family made a fortune in the beginning, so the retribution is on the eldest lady.”
Shao Yu asked in surprise: “Miss? Isn’t it Madam Wei?”
The boss said: “It’s the eldest lady.”
Then he explained to Shao Yu in detail: “When the grandfather of the Wei family was alive, perhaps because he did too many immoral things, he was busy all his life and only had one daughter, the eldest lady.”
“The eldest lady was out one day and picked up a man on the roadside. The man was an orphan, so he married into the Wei family and even changed his surname to Wei.”
In today’s world, being a son-in-law is a very despicable thing, but when the boss mentioned Wei Yuan, there was no contempt in his eyes.
Shao Yu asked again: “Who is in charge of the Wei family now? Are they just going to watch the Wei family fall into ruin?”
The boss sighed and said, “Now the Wei family is run by this son-in-law. He is an infatuated man. The eldest lady is so sick that he has no time to manage the shop.”
“Originally, the neighbors thought that after the eldest lady fell ill, the Wei family would probably be taken over by this son-in-law, but they didn’t expect that in order to treat the eldest daughter, he was willing to spend all his family wealth, even selling his shops and fields for who knows how much.”
Perhaps it was because of this that the boss looked up to Wei Yuan. He seemed to be admonishing Shao Yu and said, “Doctors are kind-hearted. Doctor, if you can’t cure them, you will bother them. After all, the Wei family is almost sold out and only an empty shell is left.”
When Shao Jiashan saw his boss questioning Shao Yu’s medical skills, he immediately became unhappy and said, “My father is not a quack. He has long been…”
Fortunately, Shao Yu stopped him in time, preventing Shao Jiashan from letting the secret slip.
The other two children standing nearby didn’t know what Shao Yu was doing, but they didn’t make any noise to cause trouble.
Shao Yu asked again: “Boss, you said that the Wei family’s early fortune was not glorious, what happened?”
The boss said, “I know you are a foreigner by listening to your accent.”
Shao Yu nodded.
The boss whispered, “In the past, there was a Jiayi tribe in Qingning County. The Jiayi tribe was in charge of a gold mine and was very rich. I don’t know what means the old man of the Wei family used to get the gold mine. After that, the Jiayi tribe seemed to have evaporated from the face of the earth, and there was no news of them since then.”
“The person is gone?” Shao Yu asked in surprise.
The boss nodded vigorously and said, “They all said that the Jiayi clan was killed by the old man of the Wei family.”
Shao Yu asked again: “Do the Jiayi people like stone carving very much?”
The boss said, “I don’t understand this.”
Shao Yu almost understood all the information he wanted. He pulled Shao Jialiang over and gave him some instructions.
Shao Jialiang left the restaurant quickly.
Shao Yu continued to sit in the restaurant and ordered a lot of snacks in order to avoid being kicked out by the boss.
