261 What a Pity That His Kindness Went to Waste

His uncle was also in the county hospital.

"Uncle, Aunty."

"Yao is here. Take a seat quickly."

"It's more than enough that you came. You don't need to bring any gifts."

Wang Yao put down the gift and sat for a while. Then, he took out the decocted herbal medicine.

"Here's some medicine. You can try it out and see if there's any effect." Wang Yao placed the medicine down, then he said a few words to his uncle and aunt. He told them about the dosage and reminded them of a few things. After that, he then made a move to leave.

"Father, why don't you try and drink some?" his uncle suggested.

"Okay, I'll give it a try." The elder was frank and straightforward as well.

The medicine was still warm and did not have a nasty taste. After it was drunk, his abdomen felt warm. Then, the warmth spread throughout his body rapidly.

It was already summer, yet the hospital only had their windows open and did not turn on the air conditioners. Therefore, it was a bit hot. After drinking the medicine, the elderly man felt a little warm, and he sweated.

"Father, how do you feel?" Wang Yao's aunt asked from the side.

She did not have any confidence in the medicine formulated by her husband's nephew. She was afraid that the illness was not cured and something else would happen to her father.

"I'm fine. I just feel a bit warm."

Soon, he felt that his chest was a little warm and painful, just like being poked by a needle.

"What's the matter, Father?"

"My chest hurts a little."

"I'll call the doctor," Wang Yao's aunt answered in a hurry.

Soon, the doctor came to the ward and asked a few questions. They did not dare to say anything about consuming the medicine. Just like that all of a sudden and after observing for a while, the elderly man felt that the pain had slowly subsided. It did not seem to be a big problem.

The doctor also felt that nothing was wrong and left.

"Don't take medicine indiscriminately. You have to listen to the doctor."

"Yes. Folk prescriptions have to be used with caution."

The people in the same ward were all advising Wang Yao's aunt. They had already seen the incident that happened just now. It was quite dangerous for this situation to happen to patients suffering from myocardial infarction. Their lives might be threatened.

"How can someone who studies biology cure illnesses?" Wang Yao's aunt said.

Afterwards, she did not let her father consume the medicine again. After lunch, the more she thought about it, the more unwell she felt. She directly poured the medicine decocted by Wang Yao into the toilet bowl in the restroom and flushed it down into the sewer.

The wild medicinal herbs were wasted. The licorice roots were wasted. The whole medicine had gone to waste!

Fortunately, Wang Yao was not there. Otherwise, who knows what Wang Yao would think or do.

If she let her father try it again, there might be unexpected surprises.

It was a pity that things were just so coincidental.

The medicine which took Wang Yao a lot of trouble to decoct was wasted just like that. Not only did it not produce any effect, but it ended up being blamed. Of course, he did not know about it then.

"Has the medicine been delivered?"

"Yes," Wang Yao replied.

"Judging from Aunty's look, she doesn't even believe me. Don't ask her about it," Wang Yao said.

"Okay," Wang Yao's mother responded, and she did not sound too happy.

Not long after Wang Yao returned home, his father also came home. After lunch, Wang Yao left his house and planned to go up Nanshan hill. When he passed by the entrance of an alley in front, he happened to see Wang Fengxiang who was exercising while using the wall as a support.

"Uncle, are you feeling better?"

Seeing that it was Wang Yao, Wang Fengxiang hurriedly answered, "Yes. I'm much better, Yao."

"Don't walk too much and exercise moderately."

"Okay. Why don't you take a seat inside the house?" Wang Fengxian asked.

"It's okay. I'm going up the hill," Wang Yao replied with a smile.

"Alright. Drop in when you're free."

"Sure."

Wang Yao went up Nanshan hill and packed up some things. He was preparing to head to Jing City.

He had booked a plane ticket to Jing City online and planned to leave the day after next.

The weather was very hot at noon, but Wang Yao's herbal field was very cool instead. After an adequate lunch break, Wang Yao took out a foldable stool and sat outside, holding the book Natural Classics in his hands. With a cup of tea and a scripture, he sat there for the whole afternoon.

The dog laid quietly beside him, listening to him reciting scripture with a low voice.

The sky turned pale yellow.

He lowered his head and looked at the dog lying next to him. He asked with a smile, "San Xian, can you understand?"

Woof. The dog barked. It was considered as a reply.

"Haha. Listen more and understand well. Who knew you would become so smart!" Wang Yao laughed while stroking the dog's head. The dog squinted his eyes, looking very happy.

When he returned home in the afternoon, another relative came to his house. It was his aunt.

"Hello, Aunty."

"Oh, Yao is back." Wang Yao realized that there were tears in the corner of his aunt's eyes. It seemed like she had just cried.

Wang Yao's father stayed at the side, smoking silently. Judging from his facial expression, he was obviously angry. Wang Yao knew by one look that it was most probably because of his uncle's matters.

He was younger, so it was inappropriate for him to ask more. He just poured a glass of water from the side and then got up and went back to his room.

After a while, his aunt left.

"What's wrong, Mother?" he asked as he came out of his room.

"It's still about your uncle. He's already a man in his forties. He stays at home all day and does nothing. Not to mention that he doesn't look for work. He even loses his temper. Now, he even wants to go to Jiaonan. What's he going to do there?" Zhang Xiuying replied.

Wang Yao rubbed his forehead after hearing.

Two of his uncles were such headaches. Being associated with such relatives—he did not have much of a choice.

"I'll find a way and see if I can find him a job."

"Wait. Jiaonan. Is Wang Zhong in Jiaonan?"

His father had four brothers. When Wang Yao's second uncle was in his forties, he had an accident when he was working outside, so he passed away early. His second aunt remarried in Jiaonan and brought her son who was already a teenager along. In the past, Wang Yao's cousin would still visit his relatives during Chinese New Year. Since Wang Yao's grandparents passed away one after another, he seldom came back. He even rarely called. Hence, their contact was gradually broken.

Could it be that Wang Yao's uncle wanted to go to Jiaonan to find his cousin who they had not been in contact with for a long time?

It was not known how Wang Yao's cousin had been living over there, but his uncle wanted to go over and trouble him. The matter of helping his uncle to find a job should be done sooner rather than later. Wang Yao's aunt had already said that she had had enough of her life now. The problem of his third uncle had not been solved yet, and this couple might even divorce.

Wang Yao thought about it. He still had to trouble others regarding this matter. He had bothered Tian Yuantu last time about the matter of his third uncle. He could not trouble him again this time. Hence, he gave Wei Hai a call.

"Your relative wants to find a job? No problem!" Wei Hai readily promised at the other end of the phone.

His business was quite big. Although it was not as extensive as Tian Yuantu's, the difference was not huge. In Lianshan County, there were already two cold storages built by the aquatic products company he founded. It was not a problem for him to arrange personal work and keep an idle person busy.

Just after ten minutes, Wang Yao received a call from Wei Hai. The job had already been arranged. His uncle could pick being the storekeeper of either one of the cold storages.

"Alright, thank you."

"It's nothing, really!" Wei Hai replied with a smile.

Wang Yao told his father about the matter.

"Dad, can you spare some time and talk to Uncle about it?"

"Alright."

"Advise him not to become like Third Uncle."

He stayed at home for the whole day. In the morning of the third day, Wang Yao carried the things he had prepared and informed his family mainly about the herbal field. Then, he took a taxi directly to the airport in Haiqu City.

He boarded the plane and flew straight to Jing City.

The atmosphere and prosperity were still the same in Jing City.

After getting off the plane, Wang Yao immediately took a taxi and prepared to head to the place where he stayed for a few times when he came. He thought of something halfway.

"Go to the Hilton Hotel."

He had heard about the name of this hotel chain long ago. He could take the opportunity to look at it.

"Okay," the driver responded.

In the taxi, Wang Yao saw that the taxi drivers in Jing City had the ability to speak eloquently and had a wide range of knowledge. From international economic situations to the Somalian pirates, from the Ming and Qing dynasties to the domestic inside-news—they knew everything. This made Wang Yao sigh for being inferior.

In the car, Wang Yao experienced the heavy traffic in Jing City once again.

Even if there were traffic restrictions based on even and odd-numbered license plates, the heavy traffic in this international metropolis could still not be solved.

Wang Yao could drive from Haiqu to Lianshan County for a round trip with the amount of time spent to arrive at the hotel from the airport.

Wang Yao got out of the car and looked at the multi-story-high hotel in front of him. It was indeed an international group which was very stylish and had a typical modern style.

The hotel staff was very beautiful, and all wore standard professional outfits and smiles.
