Chapter 461: Medical Hall, The Worrisome Mother-in-law
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Zhou Jia pulled out a chair and sat beside Mr. Wen. “Ruyi said that you promised to teach Seven Pounds medical skills. Xiaoyu said that she will open a medical center for you and hire two doctors to help you. What do you think?”
When Mr. Wen heard this, he put down the pen in his hand and looked at the manuscript in front of him for a long time. He looked up at Zhou Jia and said, “It's good to open a medical center. Sir's energy is no longer the same as before, and he doesn't have the energy to bring that child, Seven Pounds, around to treat patients. Take some silver and open a medical center for Xiaoyu.”
Zhou Jia looked at Mr. Wen and said with a smile, “I'll leave the silver with you first. If you see rare medicinal herbs, it's convenient for you to buy them.”
“Sir, what Xiaoyu means is that on the 15th of every month, the medical center will consult and give medicine to those poor families for free. Where do you think we should choose?”
“So these two children planned to open a medical center for me.”
Mr. Wen looked at Zhou Jia gratefully. “Jiahe, thank you and Xiaoyu. You're both good children. There aren't many medical centers in West City, so you can open one there.”
“Sir, you should praise my wife. She thought of it.” Zhou Jia smiled proudly.
“Which pharmacy are you familiar with? Tell Ruyi to get him to do it.”
“Sir, praise her later,” Mr. Wen said with a smile. “Go ahead. Sir, make a list of what you need to buy.”
“Alright, I'll get Ruyi to look for you. Take him to West City and find a
satisfactory position.”
Zhou Jia came out of Mr. Wen's room and went to the outer courtyard. He sent Tiezhu to Ruyi's house to call Ruyi.
“Yes, Master.” Tiezhu agreed and hurriedly went out to Ruyi's house.
After Zhao Cai finished his business and went home, he saw that Zhizi still had not returned home. He turned around and rode his horse toward the Lin family's residence in the capital. Lin Yuxuan had planned to return after high school, so only Zhizi was left at home to watch the courtyard.
Zhao Cai went to the corner door in the back garden where the Lin family lived. Looking at the narrow house inside, he recalled that in the past, Zhizi had found her house cramped. As a big girl, she lived behind a curtain with her parents. It was too inconvenient. She wanted very much to have her own house.
Now that Master had bought two houses, they were living in the house with three servants. Yet she wanted to take another step forward. If she used Master's power to take another step forward, she would definitely not be satisfied with that step. She wanted to climb higher and could end up harming others and herself until she fell to her death.
The more Zhao Cai thought about it, the colder his heart became. He led the horse and was about to leave when he saw Zhizi's mother open the courtyard door. Zhao Cai bowed and said, “Mother-in-law…”
“Come in. I have something to tell you.” Zhizi's mother interrupted Zhao Cai and let him into the courtyard. She scolded, “What are you doing here? Back then, I thought you were a good person, so I betrothed my Zhizi to you. I didn't expect you to anger my daughter home after half a year. I didn't see you admit your mistake and pick her up. You only thought of picking her up today. Let me tell you, it's too late.”
Zhao Cai listened to her finish sternly and frowned at the closed door in front of him. “Mother-in-law, what do you mean?”
Zhizi glanced at Zhao Cai. “It's what you think. Why should my flower-like daughter be matched to an ordinary-looking person like you? It's because I heard from Zhizi's father that your master is a capable person. He wants to marry his daughter to you so that you can help Zhizi's brother. Hmph! You can just go ahead and be a servant!”
Zhao Cai suppressed the anger in his heart. “From what you're saying, you want
Zhizi to split up with me, right?”
“She's been with you for half a year and was a virgin girl before that. It's not that easy.” Zhizi's mother sneered.
Zhao Cai was furious. “Your Zhizi is a good virgin! I was also a virgin back then! You can do whatever you want. If it really doesn't work, I'll write a divorce letter and send it over, okay?”
“I'll beat you to death, you beast.” Zhizi's mother turned, picked up the broom, and hit Zhao Cai.
Zhao Cai grabbed the broom and broke it into two with a bang. He pointed at
Zhi's mother and said, 'You don't have to make a scene. Let me say this today. Your daughter was instigated by a mother like you. I won't serve a mother-in-law like you!”
Zhizi's mother watched in a daze as Zhao Cai threw the broom to the ground.
She turned around and left the courtyard without looking back. She roared, “Little rascal, don't beg me if you have the ability.”
Zhizi opened the door and walked out. She complained, “Mother, didn't you hear what I said? He's very opinionated! He won't be fooled by you. What should we do now?”
Zhizi's mother glared at Zhizi and imparted her husband's experience. “Don't be afraid. He begged us like that back then. I saw that he cherished you and wouldn't really write a divorce letter. If you let him win this time, so you'll have to be weak in front of him for the rest of your life.”
Zhizi's mother instructed earnestly, “Stay at home and wait for him to beg you.”
Zhizi nodded when she heard that. “Mother, don't worry. I'll do as you say.
Look, I haven't been back for the past few days.”
Zhao Cai returned to the residence angrily and sat on the bamboo chair under the eaves of the corridor in a daze. Uncle Zhou came out and saw him like that. He smiled and asked, “What's wrong? Did you quarrel with your wife?”
Zhao Cai got up and let Uncle Zhou sit down. He sighed and said, “Uncle Zhou, why do you think we have to get a wife?”
“For the sake of carrying on the family line and having a companion. Why don't you tell me more?” Zhou Bole said.
“I went to my mother-in-law's house just now…” Zhao Cai told Uncle Zhou what had happened and said angrily, “I know she's hiding in the house. She listened to her mother and was instigated by her mother to fight me.”
When Uncle Zhou heard this, he said with a dark expression, “Your mother-in-law is quite worrisome. You have to control what you marry into. She instigated her daughter to take charge of the in-laws' family. Don't use words to deal with such a person. If you want to have a stable life with your wife in the future, do your what you need to in peace and see what she can do.”
Zhao Cai frowned and looked at the dark sky. He suddenly felt tired and said in a low voice, 'Uncle Zhou, I've been thinking these days. I feel that her family is not on the same level as ours. If she doesn't come home in a few days, I'll divorce her. On account that we're husband and wife, I'll give her all the dowry and let her find an obedient man again.”
Uncle Zhou advised, “Your wife isn't getting married for fun. How can a divorced woman marry into a good family? If she comes back, you should still live well with her. It's just that you'll be in charge of everything in the family in the future. Don't tell her anything you shouldn't tell her.”
“Got it,” Zhao Cai replied.
Uncle Zhou patted Zhao Cai and stood up. “Alright, don't frown. Your Auntie He and I are going to pay our respects to Old Master and Matriarch. Go get the carriage. I'll call your Auntie He.”
“Aye!” Zhao Cai agreed and headed for the stables..
