Traveling through the 1970s: The young wife loves to make trouble

Chapter 98 Arrogance
Wei Jingyuan did not refuse, nor did he nod to let Old Jiang treat him. For him, if his legs could not be cured and he could not walk, it would not make much difference whether the old injuries and hidden injuries were treated or not.

He had been limping for two years and had accepted that he would continue to limp until the day he died.

It was Tao Qiuyi's idea to ask Old Master Jiang for a medical consultation. Wei Jingyuan didn't say anything, but he still had some hope in his heart. When he heard Old Master Jiang talking about his injured leg, he had no choice.

It would be a lie to say I'm not disappointed.

Looking at Wei Jingyuan's calm expression, Tao Qiuyi knew that he didn't care at all whether his old injuries and hidden injuries were treated or not, and a sense of bitterness inexplicably welled up in his heart.

Yes, he had given up on himself and everyone long ago.

This man has suffered one blow after another and is very mentally ill. It is a blessing in disguise that he has not become so psychotic as to commit self-harm.

Seeing how pitiful he looked and how good-looking he was, she would definitely cure him.

"Thank you, Mr. Jiang, but that's okay." Tao Qiuyi directly rejected Mr. Jiang's kindness. When it comes to medicinal herbs, she is second to none.

Elder Jiang thought she was complaining about the expensive herbs, so his eyes darkened, but he didn't blame Tao Qiuyi for not treating Wei Jingyuan's injuries. Since he joined the brigade, there were many people who gave up treatment because of the expensive herbs.

He had encountered so many things like this that he became numb.

"No need to thank me. I diagnosed his disease, but I have no way to treat it, even..." Mr. Jiang didn't want to say the rest.

It's good that they don't blame him.

Tao Qiuyi said: "No, you diagnosed his illness, which helped me solve the biggest problem. I can handle the rest myself."

Sensing that there was something wrong with her words, Jiang Lao frowned and looked at Tao Qiuyi and asked, "How do you handle it...how do you handle it?"

"First, treat the old and hidden injuries in his body, and then find a way to repair his damaged tendons and veins." Tao Qiuyi did not hide it from Old Jiang, because she only knew how to use medicine and not how to diagnose. She would first let Wei Jingyuan recuperate for a period of time, and then bring Wei Jingyuan to see if there was any effect.

Repairing his damaged tendons and veins, how dare she say that? He had already said there was no way. Jiang Lao remembered that she had said before that the ointment used on Wei Jingyuan's body was made by her. "Do you know medicine?"

"I don't understand." Tao Qiuyi shook his head.

"Then how are you going to treat him?" Old Jiang's face darkened as he warned Tao Qiuyi, "Just knowing how to make ointments won't do. His tendons and veins are damaged, so you have to be careful when using medication. He can still walk with a cane, but if you use the wrong medication, it could easily lead to complete numbness in his legs."

"You have to understand, once he completely loses feeling in his legs, he won't be able to walk even with a cane."

Tao Qiuyi nodded carefully, "I understand, thank you, Mr. Jiang, for reminding me."

Jiang Lao frowned. She didn't look like she was unwilling to pay for Wei Jingyuan's treatment! Then why did she reject him just now?
Oh yes, she also said she would handle the rest herself.

"You understand pharmacology." Mr. Jiang was not asking, but confirming.

"I know a little bit." Tao Qiuyi was humble again this time.

She had the audacity to suggest she could repair Wei Jingyuan's damaged tendons and veins, despite knowing so little. Old Jiang didn't know what to say to her. After a moment's thought, he said, "I'll write you a prescription. You can go to the town hospital to get it. Traditional Chinese medicine is graded, and some are more effective, some are slower. You can prescribe it based on your preference."

"Thank you, Mr. Jiang. You don't have to write the prescription. It's not that I don't believe in your medical skills and prescriptions, but I want to do it myself. I will go to the mountains to find the herbs." Tao Qiuyi smiled and refused again.

Why spend that much money on medicine? There are all kinds of medicinal herbs in the mountains. Look at what she said, as if the herbs in the mountains were grown by her family and were so easy to find? Old Jiang didn't want to say anything more. This little girl was so arrogant that it made him speechless.

"How much is the consultation fee?" Seeing that Mr. Jiang didn't want to talk to him anymore, Tao Qiuyi didn't want to waste any more time.

Bring Wei Jingyuan home as soon as possible so that she can go into the mountains to look for medicinal herbs.

Jiang Lao said, "There's no medicine, no prescription, just give me fifty cents."

"Okay." Tao Qiuyi said nothing and readily took out fifty cents and gave it to Old Jiang. He turned around and picked up Wei Jingyuan's cane and handed it to him. "We've achieved our goal. Let's go back."

"Okay." After taking the crutch, Wei Jingyuan didn't ask her what purpose she had achieved. Whatever she said was what she meant.

"Wait." Li Hongying walked in with the support of Wei Lao San. She ignored Tao Qiuyi and looked directly at Wei Jingyuan. She said in a commanding tone, "You all have to pay for my medical expenses."

Before Wei Jingyuan could say anything, Tao Qiuyi sneered, "Why should I help you pay for your medical expenses?"

Li Hongying emphasized: "I didn't ask you to help pay for my medical expenses. I asked my grandson to pay for my medical expenses. If my grandson's money is with you, then you should pay it together."

"Your grandson has no money, so I paid for his medical treatment." Tao Qiuyi smiled and added, "The money I have is mine, and your grandson is mine too."

Li Hongying's face turned very ugly as she questioned Tao Qiuyi, "How could he be broke? The eldest and third sons gave him 470 yuan to buy those houses, and he never leaves home, so how could he be broke?"

"He didn't go out, but I did! After the separation, you took away everything in the kitchen except the stove and the stone vat, and didn't even leave us a piece of firewood." Tao Qiuyi stretched out his hand and began to count on his fingers.

"I bought pots, buckets, bowls, basins, corn, noodles, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and a few other things. There's so much I can't remember. Wait a minute, let me calculate how much I spent in total."

Hearing Tao Qiuyi counting on his fingers how many things he had bought, Li Hongying almost wanted to scream.

This spendthrift little slut, how dare she spend money like this.

"Don't worry, it doesn't matter if the money is gone." Wei Jingyuan held Tao Qiuyi's hand and looked at Li Hongying with a cold and distant look. "Grandma, we have separated."

"When the family was divided, my uncle, my third uncle, and my fourth uncle all signed a document. Each family has a copy. You might as well go back and take a look at what's written on it."

How could she remember what was written on the document? Li Hongying glared at Wei Jingyuan and looked at Wei Laosan.

Wei Lao San knew that his mother was asking for help. He coughed lightly and said, "Jing Yuan, we signed the agreement, but your grandmother is your biological grandmother. She's sick now. Do you really want to ignore her?"

"She gave birth to your father, raised him, and even found a wife for him. Now that your father is gone, as his son, shouldn't you take care of your grandmother on his behalf?"

Oh, it's not easy for Wei Laosan to say such a thing! Tao Qiuyi wanted to give Wei Laosan a thumbs up.

After a while, more people gathered at the door of the thatched hut to watch the fun.

Tao Qiuyi looked at Wei Jingyuan who was standing beside him. Wei Lao San was using his father to pressure him. She wondered what he would do?
