Lucky men are the last to have children, and fertile women are the last to have children

Chapter 472: The Delicate and Soft Sister-in-law VS the Black-hearted Brother-in-law Who Was Borrowed for Seed 22
Some of the villagers were frightened by Wang's scolding, but a few brave ones whispered.

"Humph, why don't you let people tell you what you did."

"That's right. We can't stand her attitude towards the third son's wife."

However, no one wanted to cause trouble, so they stopped talking. But they didn't leave either, and continued to crowd at the door to watch the fun.

Doctor Li entered the room surrounded by the crowd, and the room suddenly became quiet.

He sat beside the bed, first checked Chen Xiuyuan's finger movements, then carefully took his pulse, his brows sometimes furrowed and sometimes relaxed.

Everyone looked at Doctor Li nervously.

Especially Wang and Old Man Chen, their hearts were in their throats.

After a long while, Doctor Li stood up and said to everyone, "This is strange. Judging from the pulse, the blood and qi are much smoother than before. The finger can move, which is a good sign. However, it is the first time in my many years of medical practice that a person who has been paralyzed for many years suddenly has such a change."

Old Man Chen hurried forward and asked, "Doctor Li, what's going on with the third child? Is he really getting better, or is it just temporary?"

Doctor Li looked at Old Man Chen, stroked his beard, and said slowly: "It seems to be getting better now, but I can't tell the specific reason."

After saying that, he looked at Yu Yao and said, "Old Third's wife, do you have any special medicine or treatment for Old Third?"

Yu Yao blinked her eyes. She definitely couldn't tell anyone about the fitness pills. She just shook her head and said, "No, I didn't use any special medicine. I just massaged my husband's hands and feet every day to prevent his body from becoming stiff."

Doctor Li nodded slightly, seeming to agree with her: "Massage and kneading also have certain benefits. Long-term persistence can promote the circulation of qi and blood. However, you still need to continue to observe. If there is anything abnormal, tell me in time."

Old Man Chen quickly responded: "Thank you, Doctor Li. We will definitely pay attention to it."

Doctor Li nodded slightly and continued, "I won't prescribe any medicine. Just follow the Third Old Wife's method and give him a massage every day. Also pay attention to his diet and eat foods that nourish the Qi and blood."

Wang nodded hurriedly, sent Doctor Li away, and immediately asked Zhao to kill the old laying hen in the yard.

Zhao was so distressed that she was crying. She had drunk pheasant soup yesterday and killed a chicken again today.
She wanted to dissuade him from doing so, but she thought that her third brother's health was not good, and she was afraid that she would offend his wife and his wife if she tried to dissuade him at this time.

Thinking that the chicken was not his, there was no need to be the bad guy, so he didn't say anything.

"Yes, mother."

Zhao responded and went to the backyard to kill a chicken.

When Qian saw Zhao killing a chicken in the backyard, she became unhappy and couldn't help but grumble, "Mom, it's such a pity to kill this old hen. It lays eggs every day."

The third child could just move his fingers, was it necessary to use such a good thing to make up for it? However, she didn't dare to say this.

Wang glared at Qian and said, "The third child needs to be nourished. What do you know? If the third child can get well, it would be worth it even if we give him ten old hens, not just one."

Although she likes her youngest son more, the third son is also her son, so she is willing to give up her own son.

As for the daughter-in-law, no matter how well she does, she is still an outsider.

Qian curled her lips and muttered quietly: "I only know that you favor the third brother and his friends."

Chen Xiuhe heard his wife talking nonsense again, and his headache was so severe that he glared at her and yelled, "If mom says to kill the chicken, then kill the chicken. Why are you making so much trouble? Get back to your room if you have nothing to do."

Qian snorted, then turned and walked away, muttering as she walked, "Kill the old hen. What will your son do if he wants to eat eggs in the future?"

These words made Chen Xiuhe look unhappy, but he didn't say anything. Right now, the most important thing was to take care of his third brother. If he got better, there would be more labor force in the family.

Chen Xiuyuan was lying on the bed, looking embarrassed. He looked at Wang and said, "Mom, don't kill the hen. Keep it for the family to lay eggs."

Wang's face was originally grim, but after hearing his words, she became gentle again and patted his hand gently, "Don't listen to the second son's nonsense. We still have a few old hens laying eggs at home. We won't be short of eggs if we kill one." Yu Yao watched from the side. Wang was really good to her son and grandson, but she was obviously much worse to her daughters-in-law and granddaughters.

When Chen Xiuyuan heard his mother say this, he didn't know what to say.

Old Man Chen told him to take good care of his health, then took Chen Xiutian and Chen Xiuhe to work in the fields.

Wang hid the fact that she went to Qingyuan Temple to burn incense.

Seeing that everyone had left, Chen Mufeng didn't want to stay any longer. After saying a few words, he went back to his room to review his lessons.

The villagers who had originally come to watch the fun also gradually dispersed, still talking in low voices as they left.

Some said it was a manifestation of Bodhisattva, others said it was the third son’s wife’s attentive care that moved heaven and earth.

Some even said that smoke was coming out of the Chen family's ancestral grave and that it was the ancestors' blessing.

In the third room of the Chen family, only Chen Xiuyuan and Yu Yao were left in the room.

Chen Xiuyuan held Yu Yao's hand, his eyes full of tenderness and gratitude, "Thank you, Yao Niang, and thank you for your hard work."

Yu Yao held his hand tightly and gave him a gentle smile in return, "Husband, we are husband and wife, husband and wife are one, and I should do this."

Chen Mufeng, who was reviewing his lessons next door, heard this and felt mixed emotions.

I don't even feel like reading.

He closed the book and paced around the room, his mind constantly reappearing with the image of his third sister-in-law's gentle smile and her caring attitude towards his third brother.

He knew that this feeling of his could not and should not exist, but his feelings were like a horse that had broken free from its reins, difficult to control.

In the third room, Chen Xiuyuan held Yu Yao's hand affectionately: "Yao Niang, when I am completely well, I will definitely repay you and let you live a good life."

Yu Yao smiled slightly, "Husband, I'm very happy that you can get better."

The next day, Wang took Chen Mufeng to Qingyuan Temple to burn incense.

Old Man Chen wanted Yu Yao to go with him, but Wang refused, saying that it would be more sincere for her as a mother to thank the Buddha on behalf of her son.

Old Man Chen didn't say anything either.

Yu Yao didn't care. Although Qingyuan Temple was not far away, she still had to take a ox cart to Qingshi Town first, and then take another ox cart to the temple. She would arrive there by noon at the latest.

She was too lazy to endure the tiring journey and the bumpy ride on the ox cart.

In the afternoon, the fourth daughter, Chen Sangyu, who married into the town, and Chen Liuer, who married into Taoyuan Village, both returned to their parents' homes with their husbands and children.

Obviously, they all heard that Chen Xiuyuan's health had improved, so they took their husbands and children back to her parents' home to visit.

As soon as Chen Sangyu entered the yard, she pulled her husband Lin Yu to put the gifts they brought into the main room.

Following behind was a child of about five or six years old, with a chubby face. He was Sang Yu’s son Lin Xiaohu.

Zhao was working in the kitchen. When she heard someone coming home, she hurried out to see who was her husband, Chen Sangyu, and her husband. She wiped her hands and walked over with a smile, "Fourth sister, fourth brother-in-law, you are here. Come in and sit down."

Chen Sangyu followed him inside, "Did Dad go to the fields? Where's Mom? Why can't I see her?"

Lin Yu is of medium build, with a kind face and a simple look in his eyes. He followed behind with his son Lin Xiaohu.

Zhao led them to the main hall and sat them down. She poured a few bowls of water into coarse porcelain bowls and handed them over. She said with a smile, "Fourth sister, you came at a bad time. Mother took sixth brother to Qingyuan Temple to burn incense. She said she was thanking the Buddha for third brother's matter and also praying for you, sixth brother."
