The next day, Cui Qiyan and Dong Jiafu came to Tan's house.

The stones in the yard had been cleared, and Tan Hao welcomed them into the house with a smile.

When the old lady saw them, she also let her grandson help her get out of bed.

Seeing this, Dong Jiafu hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Master Wife, why are you up?"

"My illness was all caused by an emergency. Now that they are back, I will be cured naturally as soon as I am happy." The old lady took her hand and sat on the couch, "I was busy saving people the past few days, and you also I'm so busy that I haven't been able to talk to you properly. The matter is finally settled, you can come and sit here often."

Dong Jiafu replied warmly: "I also want to spend more time with my wife, but my family will be worried about her after being away for a long time, and I'm afraid I won't be able to stay for a long time."

"You are leaving so soon? The capital is far away from here. I don't know when we will meet again. How many more days should we stay?" The old lady said reluctantly.

Tan Langzhong said from the side: "Dong Yatou also has relatives who are looking forward to her return, so don't embarrass her."

As he spoke, Dr. Tan looked at Cui Qiyan and Dong Jiafu, "When do you plan to leave?"

Cui Qiyan said at the right time: "Actually, I would like to ask if you would like to reconsider my previous proposal to invite you to the capital."

"Going to the capital?" Mr. Tan was startled.

"Yes, don't worry. If you agree, I will make arrangements in the capital. After you arrive, you will still live as before, but you will open a medical clinic in a different place."

Faced with this proposal, Dr. Tan did not reject it immediately like the first time, but hesitated.

The other people in the room waited quietly for him to make a choice. After a moment of silence, Tan Hao couldn't wait any longer.

"Dad, I don't think there's anything wrong with going to the capital. When you rejected Mr. Cui, you didn't want to leave your homeland, but you also couldn't bear to leave these neighbors. But after your accident, how many of them believed you?"

Tan Hao was a little excited. He calmed down and continued: "To tell you the truth, I am really heartbroken. I thought that our Hui'antang has been practicing medicine and treating diseases in Linqing County for decades, and we have always been worthy of our conscience. How can we do that?" In exchange for the trust of some people here."

"When something like this happens, I don't expect them to help, even to stand by and watch. But they actually added insult to injury when our family was in the most difficult time, making my sister-in-law and Cong'er too scared to leave the house..."

Brother Tan came over and patted him on the shoulder, "Brother knows that you have been working very hard during this period. You have to take care of your family and run for me and dad. Now that you have brother here, you don't have to tighten yourself so much. As before, just concentrate on studying your medical skills."

Tan Hao shook his head and said seriously: "After this incident, I realized that I can just focus on medical skills and collect medicines everywhere, all because my father and eldest brother are in front of me. As a man in the family, I also have to take responsibility. We can no longer be as casual as before.”

The senior brother had indeed changed. Looking at him, Dong Jiafu thought of his second brother. Their experiences were very similar. They both grew up suddenly when changes occurred at home.

Doctor Tan stroked his beard and looked pleased, "It's not a bad thing if you think so. Good medical skills are important, but learning how to gain a foothold in this world is equally important."

"I understand what you mean. Tell me what you think. Do you want to go to the capital?" Mr. Tan looked at the other people at home.

Sister-in-law Tan held her son in her arms and said softly: "Cong'er is still young and doesn't understand this. I come from a womanly family. I marry a chicken and a dog and I will go wherever my husband goes."

The couple looked at each other with mutual affection.

Brother Tan looked away, thought about it and then said: "Whether I go to the capital or continue to stay in Linqing County, I can do it. Several generations of us have been born here, and it is not easy to make Hui'an Hall what it is now. Even though Some people go too far, but no one can guarantee that they will all be reasonable people when they go to the capital."

"However, the capital is also good. There are people outside the mountains, and there are many talents in the capital. Going there can broaden our horizons and help us improve our medical skills."

It was the first time that Dong Jiafu heard him say so many words, and they were well-founded and coherent.

When she was at the hospital before, she only knew that Brother Tan was in charge of some trivial matters inside and outside the hospital. He spent most of his time outside, so she didn't know that much about him.

Only then did she understand that Brother Tan was the most indispensable person in the medical clinic. With him around, the master could worry less, and the senior brother could concentrate on improving his medical skills.

The old lady beside him spoke, interrupting Dong Jiafu's thoughts.

"I am not originally from Linqing County. I have lived here for most of my life because I married into the Tan family. Now I still listen to you."

"Dong Yatou is also in the capital. If we go there, won't we be close to her?" Thinking of this, the old lady looked at Dong Jiafu with a smile.

Dong Jiafu nodded hurriedly, "Yes, you went to the capital, I will definitely visit you from time to time."

"Okay, okay -" the old lady smiled and patted her hand gently.

"Dad, just say it, we will all listen to you." Tan Hao said.

After hearing this, Dr. Tan had already made up his mind, "Since Hui'an Tang here has been closed down, let's just start over in another place. As long as the Hui'an Tang signboard is there, our Tan family can take root wherever we go!"

"Great!" Tan Hao was unexpectedly happy. He could go to more places to collect medicine.

"Dad, are you willing to leave?" Brother Tan was worried.

"There's no reason why people can't bear to move a living tree away from a dead one. When I die, just remember to bury me in the ancestral grave."

Doctor Tan's eyes fell on his grandson, "You still have a long way to go. If you are really capable, go up and get ahead. Don't be trapped in this small medical clinic."

"Didn't Dad always say that our medical clinic should be passed down from generation to generation? Why do you suddenly say this now?" Tan Hao asked in confusion.

Mr. Tan took a sip of the water in front of him and sighed: "I thought a lot in prison, even the worst possible outcome. If it weren't for Mr. Cui and Ms. Dong, your eldest brother and I would be in trouble." Less. Even if you could support the medical clinic at that time, who would dare to enter?"

"If we want to protect our Hui'an Hall's signature, we must first become stronger ourselves so that we won't be knocked down by someone pushing us."

"I understand, dad, don't worry, I will work harder to protect Hui'antang in the future." Tan Hao said solemnly.

Cui Qiyan had anticipated Dr. Tan's decision, so he brought it up again.

"When does Dr. Tan plan to leave? Do you want to come with us?"

"No," Dr. Tan waved his hand, "You have been out for a long time, so go back as soon as possible. We have to take care of things here, and the old lady's illness has not been cured yet, so we can't rush on the road. When we are ready, I’ll ask my second brother to write to you again.”

Cui Qiyan nodded: "Okay, then we will wait for your news in the capital."
