Although old Yu was reluctant to part with the family business he had earned, this incident left a great shadow in his heart. Today can be regarded as torn face, Zhang Shi is cruel and merciless, if he continues to live with her, he is afraid that his life will be killed by her at some point.
But if he was hard-hearted and divorced Mrs. Zhang, Yu Bo and Yu Caidie were his flesh and blood after all, one would be affected academically, and the other would not be able to hold her head high in her in-law's house.
After the new emperor ascended the throne, Heli was included in the scope of the law. Mainly to protect women's rights and improve women's status. Encourage women to propose reconciliation if they cannot survive the abuse at their husband's house. Heli is protected by law.
For the sake of the two children, Lao Yu chose to reconcile and leave. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Zhang was so greedy that she wanted to take away all the Yu family's property. He knew Mrs. Zhang, the money in his hand, even the gods would not even try to take it from her.
Old Yu was disheartened and didn't want to fight any more. He shook his head weakly and said, "I only have one request. The property of the old Yu family must be used by the blood of the Yu family."
Mrs. Zhang has the cheek to fight for the family property, not only to ensure her future life, but mainly for her precious son. She has a cold nature, and although Yu Dashan is also her own flesh and blood, compared to her youngest son who can bring her a life like a master, no one is more important than him.
Heli's documents were finalized quickly, and Lao Yutou and Mrs. Zhang both signed their fingerprints. When Yu Hai and Yu Caifeng heard the news, everything was a foregone conclusion. The siblings took their father back to the old house and placed him in the west courtyard where Yu Caifeng lives now, and invited Dr. Sun from the town to come over for diagnosis and treatment. Sure enough, as Yu Xiaocao said, it was coughing up blood caused by lung inflammation.
During Dr. Sun's diagnosis and treatment, Yu Lichun and other people who had a good relationship with the Yu family gathered in the west courtyard of the old house. According to Dr. Sun, if Lao Yu's illness had not been delayed, it would not have been so serious. Old Yu's body is weak, if he delays for another two days, he might not even get his life back. The lung disease is quite serious, just taking medicine may not be effective, and I have to stay in bed to recuperate, and provide delicious food and drink. Dr. Sun also said that after all, Lao Yutou is old, and he may not be able to engage in physical labor after he recovers.
Yu Lichun and the villagers all sighed. There is no one who doesn't scold Zhang's black-hearted poisonous woman, and she is so delayed by being alone. Yu Lichun said some words of comfort to the old man, so that he can recover from his illness with peace of mind, and don't have too much psychological pressure.
Old Yu, who came to Yu Hai's house to recuperate, felt very uncomfortable. This son has been neglected since the first wife fell ill. Before the separation, he did more than others, but got less than others. At that time, he felt that those who are capable should work harder and make more contributions to the family. When the family was separated, he believed Zhang's words, Gu Nian's youngest son and unmarried youngest daughter gave almost nothing to Yu Hai.
Over the years, as a father, he owed too much to his son, but in the end he pointed at his most neglected son to live. Old Yu has been trying to be strong all his life, and he feels that there is nowhere to put his old face.
Mood directly affects the recovery of the disease. I have also taken this medicine and supplemented it with chicken and fish every day, but the disease of Lao Yu's head keeps coming back and forth, and he doesn't get better.
When Yu Xiaocao boiled medicine for her grandfather, she would always add some spirit stone water. A serious situation like my uncle's has been rescued, so how come there is no improvement when I get to my grandfather? Seeing old Yu's depressed and lifeless appearance, Yu Xiaocao, who has experienced two lives, concluded that it was psychological reasons that affected his recovery.
She told her father and aunt the crux of the problem, and the siblings began to enlighten their father. Yu Caifeng supported Old Yu's head halfway against the quilt, fed him chicken noodle soup, and said in a low voice, "Father, it's time to eat noodles. Xiaocao made this specially for you."
"My body is useless to eat anything, save it for the children to eat." Old Yu heard from Dr. Sun that even if he recovered from his illness, he would not be able to work anymore. Thinking that I will become a burden to my children in the future, I feel so panicked that I can't eat anything.
Yu Haidao: "Father, there are children. Xiaocao stewed an old hen, and the noodle soup is enough for the whole family. Father, you can rest assured of your illness and don't worry about money. Our family has been growing vegetables and melons for the past two years. Is there no shortage of silver for you to eat?"
Old Yutou sighed: "My illness, even if it is cured, is still a burden. It's better to die..."
"Father, what are you talking about? Aren't you poking me and Xiao Hai's heart with a needle?" Yu Caifeng was saddened by what he said, and her eyes slowly turned red.
Yu Hai hurriedly patted the elder sister on the shoulder, and said to Old Yu: "Father, the doctor's words may not be all right. Just like my leg, didn't the doctor say it was cured? Isn't it fine now? My son remembers that you were young. At that time, I was not only a good fisherman, but also a first-class farmer in the village. The corn and potatoes pounded by the grass can be harvested in more than a month. At that time, I will point to you to check! That is given by the imperial court There must be no mistakes in the task."
Old Yu glanced at his son's right leg which had returned to normal, and the light of hope flashed again on his ashen face. yes! Dahai's leg was said to be amputated at that time, otherwise there would be no way to save it. Now not only is he healthy, but his legs are also preserved. The doctor's diagnosis sometimes makes mistakes! His doctor said that it was not a serious illness at first, but it was delayed. If he is raised well, maybe he can still help his son with work for a few years!
"Dahai is right! Feng, give me the noodles, I can eat them myself!" Old Yu, who had regained his fighting spirit, quickly ate up a bowl of noodles.
In the days to come, he actively cooperated with the treatment and took medicine, and Yu Xiaocao provided herbal diet as if he didn't need money. Old Yutou recovered from his illness very quickly, and his body is also slowly recovering during recuperation. Half a month later, by the Yu family's cornfield, you could see Lao Yu strolling with his head behind his back.
"Uncle Yu, you're in good health!" There hasn't been much rain in the past month, and the fields are extremely dry. Many farming families are carrying burdens to water the crops in the fields. The terrain of Dongshan Village is good, and the spring water on the West Mountain is continuous all year round. As long as it is not a severe drought for many years, the impact will not be too great.
Old Yu laughed all over his face, nodded and said: "Yes! My son sees the sky and feeds him with chicken, fish, meat and eggs. Can he recover quickly?"
Wang Ergou's field lent Yu Hai to plant watermelons in the spring, and at this time there were newly planted sweet potatoes in the field. Wang Ergou, who made a lot of money with Yu Hai, became more and more active, and without his wife's urging, he carried a wooden bucket to water the sweet potatoes.
Wang Ergou smiled and said: "Uncle Yu, follow Brother Dahai from now on, just wait and enjoy your blessings!"
Old Yu nodded in agreement, and said, "Dahai and his children are filial!"
Wang Ergou took a few steps forward with the bucket in hand, and said, "Uncle Yu, after I finish watering the sweet potatoes in the field, I'll help Brother Dahai water the corn. You're in good shape, don't walk around for too long. If you're tired, Just sit and rest in the melon shed over there."
"Okay! You can do your work first! I'm walking around!" Ever since he was able to get down to the ground, Old Yu followed the doctor's instructions and exercised every day. From time to time to stroll on the ground. Not only can I exercise my body, but I can also help my son look at some corn, so don't let it be spoiled by embarrassment.
Now is the most important period for corn growth, and there will be some drought after summer. In order to prevent the reduction of corn production, Yu Hai, his wife and his sister and brother-in-law have been carrying water to irrigate the field these two days.
The drought in Dongshan Village is not bad. It is said that people from the south said that the situation there is even worse. Many small rivers have stopped flowing, and the water in the lake has bottomed out. This season's crops can be harvested by 10%. , It's all considered God's reward!
Yu Caifeng and Liu Hu, who have just experienced the severe drought in Northeast China, are very active in watering the land. Even Liu Junping has acted like an adult. They have personally experienced the harshness of the drought, and they pray every day for a rain to relieve the drought.
But the sky was not as they wished, and it was a scorching hot day with high temperature and sun exposure for several days. The Yu family's corn and potatoes are alright, and Yu Yu's grass is quietly irrigated with Lingshi water. It has a strong ability to resist drought and is still growing vigorously. For the people who grow sweet potatoes nearby, the leaves of the sweet potatoes have already wilted, and the water that is poured down is not enough for the sun to evaporate. Seeing that the harvest is due in one month, the sweet potato fields that have experienced drought must have reduced production.
In the evening, Yu Hai's family sat around the stone table and had dinner. Old Yu sighed deeply and said, "The past two years have always been full of disasters. The year before last was heavy with snow, but last year was a little better. The people's The good times have just begun, and this year there is a drought again. I don’t know how many families will have enough to eat... "
Xiaocao brought a bowl of ginseng pork rib soup to strengthen the body and invigorate Qi, and handed it to Old Yu. This herbal meal is stewed with astragalus, ginseng and pork chops. Astragalus has a good effect of nourishing the qi of the spleen and lungs, and is of great benefit to the body of the old man.
Lao Yu ate such a medicinal diet three times a day. With the addition of ingredients and medicinal materials, the food for the old man is worth chewing for the whole family. Old Yu looked at the ginseng in the medicinal diet, and said to Yu Hai: "I don't know how long this year's drought will last, and the food price will definitely increase. My health is already much better, so I don't need to eat this medicinal diet! Save some Money, buy more food and store it at home. We ordinary people, don’t panic if you have food in your pocket!”
Yu Xiaocao smiled and explained for her father: "Grandpa, don't worry about money. The most important thing for you now is to keep your body healthy. Most of the medicinal materials in the medicinal diet are collected from the mountains by me. It’s not worth a lot of money. You, take care of your body with peace of mind and don’t have to worry about money. Don’t dare to say anything else, we can still afford chicken, fish, meat and eggs every day!”
