1959Siheyuan, a Turnaround

His leg was already disabled, and now when he saw his son wasting money, there was a hint of blame in his words.

Li Weiguo took a deep breath and slowly spoke out the words he had prepared: "Dad, I met a very good old doctor. He was invited from afar. I happened to meet him, so I tentatively told him about your situation.

He said that if you get proper treatment in your condition, you can recover easily.

Then I exchanged the medicine with him for an antique I bought from Liulichang.

He said your leg will be healed in just one month."

Li Dajiang listened to his son's words, his face full of bitterness, he shook his head and said: "Weiguo, Dad's leg has been lame for three years, there is no hope of recovery.

Don't waste your money and energy on your father in the future. Who knows if this old doctor is lying to you! "

Li Weiguo hurriedly said, "Dad, don't say that. This medicine didn't cost much, and that antique item only cost 3 yuan."

Li Dajiang's eyes widened when he heard this, his face full of shock: "3 yuan? How can it be so expensive! You must have been cheated! Your father's leg didn't cost much when I first saw it!"

Li Weiguo thought if it weren't for this, your leg wouldn't have become lame. It was because you were reluctant to spend money that your left leg became lame for three years.

He took a deep breath and said, "Dad, look, I've bought the medicine! Just try it, what if it really works?"

Wang Guifang, who had just returned from work, heard this and asked, "Weiguo, what medicine did you say you bought?"

"Mom, I bought a special medicine for Dad to treat his legs. I want him to try it!"

Wang Guifang kept her eyes on the medicines, with a gleam in her eyes. Could there really be a miraculous medicine?

She couldn't help but interrupt, "Da Jiang, it's a good idea for you, so just give it a try. If your leg can really be cured, I will wake up laughing in my dreams."

Li Dajiang looked at the expectant eyes of his wife and son, and was moved. He sighed and said, "Okay, let's give it a try."

Wang Guifang immediately smiled and asked Li Weiguo how to take the medicine.

"Mom, drink this big bag before meals, and this small bag after meals. They are all plasters. It's best to soak your legs in hot water and then apply the plaster."

"Okay, Mom will go get some water. Let your dad try applying the ointment today!"

After saying that, she didn't even turn her head back and hurried to prepare hot water to soak Li Dajiang's feet and apply the plaster.

Not long after, Wang Guifang came over with a small bucket of hot water.

"Our mother told you to soak your feet in this waste water bucket so that your calves can be soaked thoroughly!"

"Okay!" Li Dajiang had no choice but to obediently put his legs into the barrel.

Ten minutes later, Li Dajiang came out of the hot water and wiped the water stains on his legs with a rag at home.

With the help of Li Weiguo, a layer of plaster like a sticker was applied on Li Dajiang's injured leg.

Not long after it was applied, Li Dajiang felt a warm sensation and a glimmer of hope suddenly arose in his heart.

Does this plaster really work?

"Dajiang, how do you feel?"

After cleaning up the dishes, Grandma Li sat down next to Li Dajiang. She also hoped that her eldest son's leg could be cured.

At this moment, she was looking at Li Dajiang expectantly.

"Mom, I feel warm and comfortable on my legs!"

"Oh! It works, it really does. I asked a lot of doctors about it, and they all said that as long as you can feel your legs again, you'll get better!"

Grandma Li clapped her legs happily. She turned to Wang Guifang and said, "Old Wife, quickly get the medicine for Dajiang and let him drink it. It seems that our Weiguo has really met a miracle doctor this time!"

"Okay, okay, I'll get some water right away!"

When Wang Guifang heard her mother-in-law say this, tears welled up in her eyes. She hoped more than anyone else that Li Dajiang's leg could be cured!

Li Weiguo also smiled and comforted Li Dajiang, saying, "Dad, don't worry, you will definitely get better."

Li Dajiang nodded slightly, tears welling up in his eyes: "Weiguo, Dad knows that you are filial. Even if this leg can't be cured, Dad will be satisfied."

Grandma Li disagreed: "What nonsense are you talking about! Weiguo said that he is a very good old doctor. Just listen to him and take medicine and apply plaster every day. Don't think about anything else..."

The night fell over the courtyard, and the Yi family in the middle courtyard seemed especially quiet today.

Yi Zhonghai sat alone on a chair at home, his face pale and his forehead covered with fine beads of sweat.

His eyes were empty and lifeless, and the scene that happened today at the deaf old lady's place kept replaying in his mind. He was still frightened and his body couldn't help but tremble slightly.

When I came back from the bank today, I went to see the deaf old lady and told her what happened today.

As a result, he felt a depressing atmosphere as soon as he entered the door.

The deaf old lady sat on her bed with her back to the door, her straight back exuding an invisible majesty.

"Come in! Close the door!"

The deaf old lady's voice was cold and stern, without a trace of warmth.

Yi Zhonghai hurriedly did as he was told and walked cautiously to Old Lady Long, lowering his head and not daring to look her in the eye.

The deaf old lady slowly turned around, her sharp eyes piercing Yi Zhonghai like a knife, and the wrinkles on her face seemed even deeper because of anger.

"Yi Zhonghai, look at what you have done!"

She slammed the low cabinet beside the bed, causing the teacups on it to shake a few times.

Yi Zhonghai was frightened by the sudden slap and trembled all over, "Old lady, I...I..."

He stuttered and could not speak clearly.

"Hmph!" The deaf old lady snorted coldly.

"What do you mean by 'you'? Look at what you have done. The elder Hu and the younger Hu were arrested by the police station. If I hadn't noticed it in advance and intervened, you would have been arrested and put in jail by now!"

Yi Zhonghai's legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground. "Old lady, how could it become like this? I...I was wrong."

The deaf old lady's eyes widened with anger. "You are wrong? Where did you go wrong? Your mistake was that you were not careful enough and left so many handles! And how did someone find clues about Lao Jia's matter, He Daqing's matter, and Li Dajiang's matter?"

Yi Zhonghai's heart tightened, and only then did he realize the seriousness of the matter.

If everything he did were exposed, he would definitely be in big trouble!

Fortunately, the old lady discovered it in time and asked the people above to intervene. This time the old lady saved his life again!

Beads of sweat kept rolling down Yi Zhonghai's forehead. "Old lady, I... I don't know either. I have always been very careful."

"Be careful?" The deaf old lady sneered, "You call this being careful? You almost killed us all! From now on, put away those little tricks of yours, you must keep a low profile and behave yourself!"

Yi Zhonghai nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, old lady, I will listen to you."

The deaf old lady took a deep breath and calmed down a little: "Why are you here now?"

Yi Zhonghai quickly recounted all the strange things that had happened at home early that morning.

The deaf old lady snorted coldly and said, "You have thought this through very carefully!"
