Chapter 407: It Was More Nerve-Wracking to Stay at Home

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The bags were full of gifts from the villagers from Jia County. There were fresh dates, dry dates, millet, and walnuts. It was common food, but all the favorite foods of Wang Yao’s family.

“These are all from the villagers,” said Wang Yao.

“Really? Hmmm...the dates are nice, so are the millet and walnuts.” Zhang Xiuying could tell the quality of the food right way as she had been a farmer’s wife for most of her life.

“Has everything gone well there?” asked Zhang Xiuying.

“Yes,” said Wang Yao, smiling. “Where is Dad?”

“He went to Nanshan Hill, he should come home soon,” said Zhang Xiuying.

“Let me help you prepare dinner,” said Wang Yao.

“No, it was a long way for you to drive back. You must be tired. Go, wash your face and rest up a little. Dinner will be ready soon,” said Zhang Xiuying.

“Okay,” said Wang Yao.

He went to washed his face, then came out to set the table.

Soon his father came back home.

“Hi, Dad,” said Wang Yao.

“You are back,” said Wang Fenghua.

“Yeah, just came back,” said Wang Yao.

“Was everything going alright there?” Wang Fenghua asked the same question as his wife, with the same amount of concern.

“Yes,” said Wang Yao.

“Good,” said Wang Fenghua.

Dinner was ready after a short while. Wang Yao ate with his family while telling them what had happened in Jia County.

“It won’t work if the roads are not fixed. The economics of the village won’t develop without a good infrastructure, as it means they can’t transfer anything out of the village, even they have the best stuff in the world,” said Wang Fenghua after Wang Yao had told him the situation of the village in Jia County.

“Yes, they have to fix the roads before doing anything else. You are right,” said Wang Yao.

“The adults are fine, but those children...” said Zhang Xiuying.

“I went to Dao City before coming back. I’ve spoken to Sun Zhengrong about the village. His company has created a fund supporting poor students. He agreed to offer assistance to the village. He has sent people to the village. I want to donate some money to them,” said Wang Yao.

“Okay, I think that’s a great idea,” said Wang Fenghua.

Although he didn’t know how much money his son had earned, he supported his son to do something good.

“Good,” said Zhang Xiuying.

Wang Yao and his parents sat on the bed and watched TV after dinner.

Wang Yao gave each of his parents a massage to relax.

He felt happy when spending quality time with his family. It was cozy and peaceful.

“By the way, a lot of people came to the village last few days. They all came to see you,” said Zhang Xiuying as she was peeling peanuts.

“I see, Mom,” said Wang Yao.

“I heard some of them were government officers,” said Zhang Xiuying.

“Government officers?” said Wang Yao with a smile. “Makes no difference.”

He was no longer a new graduate who knew nothing but hard work in the herbal field on Nanshan Hill. He had travelled a lot and met all kinds of people, including those who held high position in the government. His way of thinking had changed.

“Will you go back to Nanshan Hill tonight?” asked Wang Fenghua.

“No, I’ll stay at home,” said Wang Yao. “I want to stay with you two.”

“Good,” said Wang Fenghua.

It was not very windy outside that night.

Wang Yao went to sleep before 10 pm.

It was going to be a busy day.

He got up very early the next morning, and practiced Chinese boxing in the courtyard.

He left his home after breakfast and saying goodbye to his parents.

Some of the villagers were going to walk up the hills.

“Morning, sir.” Wang Yao greeted all the senior villagers he passed.

“You are back, Yao,” said a senior villager.

“Yeah,” said Wang Yao, smiling.

He greeted every senior villager he encountered.

His clinic was standing quietly at the south end of the village. The two Acacia trees were growing very well. No leaves had dropped.

The wooden doors of the clinic stayed closed. The sign of Wang Yao’s absence was still hanging there.

“I’m back,” said Wang Yao softly.

He took the sign off, unlocked the door, and pushed it open to go inside. Nothing had changed in the courtyard. All the plants were growing well. It was a very pleasant scene to look at.

He hadn’t been to the clinic for over 10 days. He tidied up the room and watered the trees and plants in the courtyard.

“You all grow very well,” said Wang Yao. He was pleased.

He walked around the courtyard, then locked the door of the his clinic before leaving for Nanshan Hill.

The sun was climbing higher and higher up in the sky.

A small hill came into view after Wang Yao had walked for a short distance. Behind this hill, another hill came into view. That hill looked nice and green from distance. The trees were growing very well on that hill, as if it was still summer time, unlike other ones which didn’t have many leaves left.

Wang Yao was eager to go home to see his family. He was also eager to see his clinic and Nanshan Hill.

He loved Nanshan Hill. He missed it so much even though he was only away for a few days.

Before he reached the foot of Nanshan Hill, a dog with yellow hair ran towards him. The dog wagged his tail as he approached Wang Yao.

“Hi, San Xian,” said Wang Yao.

Woof! Woof! Woof!

San Xian was very happy to see Wang Yao. He stood up and licked Wang Yao’s pants.

“Wow, you look bigger,” said Wang Yao.

He played with the dog for a while before going uphill with the dog.

“Where is Da Xia? Out about again?” asked Wang Yao.

Woof! Woof!

The trees were still very green on the hill. The trees planted for the hallucination battle array initially had grown much bigger. The herbs in the field also grew well. Cizhan and Changyang, the two licorice recently planted, had grown much taller.

“Right, I am rewarded a bag of herb seeds this time,” said Wang Yao.

He was rewarded a bag of Yushuai seeds. Yushuai was able to enhance blood flow and Qi, and settle one’s mind.

A simple introduction explained the extraordinary effect of Yushuai, which was a licorice root of medium quality.

This is good stuff.

Wang Yao picked out a suitable area to plant the seeds, then watered them with ancient spring.

He walked with San Xian around Nanshan Hill afterwards.

Nanshan Hill was the only place covered by green trees and plants among all the other hills. It looked so distinguished.

“The aura on the hill is getting stronger,” said Wang Yao.

Initially the aura from surrounding places gathered in the herbal field, then the trees facilitated the aura to grow. Therefore, the aura on Nanshan Hill had become stronger. This was a virtuous cycle. The other hills nearby would also benefit from the aura.

Two men came to Wang Yao’s clinic.

“Look, the sign on the door has been removed. Dr. Wang has come back,” said one of the men.

“Yes!” said the other one excitedly.

The two of them stepped ahead to knock at the door, but found that the door was locked.

“What’s going on? Has he come back or not?” said one of them.

Wang Yao didn’t know how many people came to the village while he was away. He didn’t know whether they had urgent matters or not. Actually quite a few people came to look for Wang Yao in the last 10 days, not too many, but at least 50 people. Some of them came several times. The two middle-aged men had come to the clinic twice.

“Maybe we should visit his house?” suggested one of the middle-aged men.

“Not a good idea. Haven’t you heard that Dr. Wang didn’t like people visiting his house. Shall we just wait here for a while?” said the other man.

“Okay, since we are already here.” The two of them went back inside their car to wait for Wang Yao.

Hmmm?

Xiaohei!

Wang Yao saw the snake on Nanshan Hill. The snake was about one meter long and as thick as a toddler’s arm.

Snakes would only grow after casting off their skin. Apparently Xiaohei had grown much faster than it should.

The snake apparently recognized Wang Yao and San Xian. It lifted its head up to greet Wang Yao and San Xian in its own way.

“Looks like you are getting more and more clever, too,” said Wang Yao. “Off you go, I want to walk around with San Xian.”

The snake ignored Wang Yao, or, it probably didn’t understand Wang Yao’s words. It continued to follow Wang Yao and make hissing sound.

While Wang Yao was walking on the hill, he heard someone calling out his name. Wang Yao looked towards the voice, and saw a senior villager.

“Morning, sir,” said Wang Yao.

“Morning, Yao, I just saw two people outside your clinic on my way here. It seems they want to see you,” said the senior villager.

“Oh, I see, thank you,” said Wang Yao.

“No problem,” said the senior villager.

“San Xian, Xiaohei, go home, I’m going to the clinic,” said Wang Yao.

He left Nanshan Hill. His dog and the black snake went back into the battle array.

“Hey, hurry up, that’s Dr. Wang.” Outside the clinic, a middle-aged man who was smoking saw Wang Yao walking from distance. He immediately prompted his friend.

“Where is he? Oh, is that him? So young!” said his friend.

“I’ve told you before. He’s very young, but is a fantastic doctor. Off we go, I believe he can cure you,” said the middle-aged man.

The two of them went up to the clinic immediately.

“Hello, Dr. Wang.” They greeted Wang Yao as they walked towards Wang Yao from distance.

“Sorry for keeping you guys waiting,” said Wang Yao.

“That’s fine,” said the middle-aged man.

“Please come in,” said Wang Yao.

“Okay, thanks,” said the middle-aged man.

He and his friend walked into the clinic.

“Please sit down, who’s first?” asked Wang Yao.

“I’m fine. This is my friend. He wants to see you,” said the middle-aged man, who was slightly overweight. The person who wanted to see Wang Yao looked more overweight. He looked in his 40’s, but had already lost half of his hair.

Blocked Qi and blood flow, weak organs, thought Wang Yao.

“So how can I help you?” asked Wang Yao.

“I, em, I have habitual constipation. Sometimes I don’t go to the bathroom for four to five days. It was extremely uncomfortable,” said the person.

The person’s breath had an uniquely awful smell when he was speaking.

“Let me take a look,” said Wang Yao.

Wang Yao checked his pulse.

The person’s body was in disorder. His metabolism was in disorder.

“You are overweight. You need to lose weight,” said Wang Yao.
