Chapter 4905: Like a Child

o ordered two signature snacks of this teahouse: crab roe bun and crab seed noodle.During the wait for food, Li Da'er’s brows furrowed suddenly.He gazed toward a certain spot in the teahouse.Then, he...Yang Huazhong and Yang Yongxian, uncle and nephew, had been staying by Lao Yangtou's bedside, talking to him.

During that time, Sun came over again and brought dinner.

"Mother, I also brought your and Meili's share. It saves you both a trip." said Mrs. Sun.

Yang Huamei quickly got up and thanked Sun, "Third sister-in-law, you don't need to prepare meals for me. I have to go back. There are four men at home waiting for me to cook!"

Before Lady Sun could speak, Lady Tan jumped in: “Since your third sister-in-law has prepared your meal, you shouldn’t refuse it. You can go back and cook after eating, it’s the same anyway. There are chicken legs, the food is pretty good!”

When Tan spoke, she also put the chicken leg in her bowl into Yang Huamei's bowl.

Yang Huamei glanced at the two chicken legs, and smiled helplessly: "Mother, you eat them yourself. I really need to go back."

Then Tan turned her head and instructed Sun, "Mei'er is going back. You bring her those two chicken legs."

Sun reacted, replying with a sound and hurriedly going to prepare, but was stopped by Yang Huamei.

"Third Sister-in-law, no need, no need..."

Sun said, "It's okay, take it for the children to eat!"

Mrs. Sun insisted on getting oiled paper to pack the chicken legs. Knowing Ms. Tan, if these two chicken legs weren't taken away by Yang Huamei, the old lady would definitely berate them from dusk till dawn tonight, regardless of their personal desire for a quiet evening. The chicken legs were a way to appease her anger.

After Yang Huamei left, Tan also contentedly picked up her bowl and chopsticks to eat.

Yang Huazhong came to the bedside, “Father, I’ll feed you.”

Yang Yongxian said, “Uncle Three, let me feed him!”

Yang Huazhong said, "You go have dinner, I'll..."

"I'm coming..."

"Alright, you two stop arguing. I can't stand up with my legs, but that doesn't mean I can't lift my hands. Help me up, and I'll eat by myself!" Old Yang said.

Thus, Yang Huazhong and Yang Yongxian worked together carefully to help Lao Yang up. They placed a large handkerchief in front of him and brought a bowl of steaming white rice and dishes to the old man.

The old man glanced at the bowl of food. There were fish, meat, and chicken legs, all hearty dishes.

“It would be nice to have a little wine,” Old Yang muttered.

Yang Huazhong raised his head and said, "Father, you've just woken up and are taking medicine. Fu Bo and his son both warned that you mustn't drink alcohol! Please bear with it!"

Lao Yang pursed his lips, a little unwilling, but he had no choice but to lower his head and shovel it down.

That's how it was, at midnight, Yang Huazhou and Yang Yongjin arrived on time. "Third Brother, Yongxian, we'll take over for the second half of the night, you guys go rest!" Yang Huazhou said.

Yang Huazhong nodded. "Yongxian and I are resting in the next room. Shout if anything happens."

The next day, several brothers with dark circles under their eyes sat in Yang Huazhong's hall discussing things.

"Third Brother, this won't work. We still need to discuss how to keep watch." Yang Huazhou said.

The old man couldn't walk, and he needed someone with him even to go to the bathroom at night. As for Tan, she was blind and couldn't possibly take care of Old Yang.

Raising a child is for supporting oneself in old age, this is the time when it comes in handy.

Yang Huazhong said, “I’ve also thought about it. We're on this half-night shift, and everyone is not sleeping well. Why don't we just keep watch all night”

"As the eldest, my father lives at home, so it's convenient for me to take care of him. I can handle everything during the day, and we can take turns looking after him at night."

“I’ll come tonight, Lao Wu tomorrow night, and the rest will follow in order of age. What do you think” Yang Huazhong asked.

Yang Huazhou said, "Third brother, I have no objection to your proposal, but you are too hard-working during the day."

Yang Huazhong smiled: "It's nothing, who told me I am the elder brother!"

Yang Huazhou said, "Since that's the case, we can come by more often during the day when we have free time and help you share some of the burden."

Yang Yongxian's brothers all nodded.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Because men and women have different roles, it's not convenient for the daughters-in-law to take care of their father-in-law. So, the sons will have to lead the charge.

The Yang brothers came as they had planned, taking turns throughout the day to visit and keep Old Yang company.

At night, they also took turns keeping watch in order of seniority. A small bed was set up next to Lao Yangtou and Tan's beds. At night, when Lao Yangtou wanted water, hot tea was immediately brought to him; if he needed to urinate, a chamber pot was immediately offered; and when Lao Yangtou turned over and coughed, the sputum basin was immediately placed in front of him.

Even Lao Yang felt chest tightness and shortness of breath, and he even had to help by patting his back...

When relatives and friends heard the news, they all came to visit Old Yang with gifts.

Everyone gathered in Old Yang's house, by his bedside, speaking words of comfort and encouragement.

Old Yang once again had the feeling of being surrounded by stars.

Although my legs can't walk, this feeling of being pampered by a whole family is truly wonderful!

That's how the days passed. During that time, Old Fu and his son came several times to treat his leg, and they even invited a doctor from Yi He Chun Medical Hall to come to their house. He took medicine and had acupuncture, but there was no improvement. Old Yang was also getting tired of lying down. The initial freshness had worn off, and every day he looked out the window, his temper grew increasingly irritable.

In a blink of an eye, it was the seventh day of the first lunar month.

As dusk approached, the sound of firecrackers began to echo through the air.

Old Yang leaned back against the bed, cocked his ear to listen to the sounds outside, knowing today was 'the last day of the year'.

On the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, according to the customs of Changping Village, every household is supposed to set off firecrackers today to scare away weasels, hoping for a prosperous year for poultry and livestock.

This time last year, he would light fireworks next to the chicken coop in the backyard for good luck.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

But this year...

The old man looked at his own legs, which were numb and lifeless under the blanket, his brows furrowed into a knot.

Mingming, although he can eat, drink, sleep, and talk now, and his mind is very clear, why can't these legs stand up What kind of weird disease is this

Is it really an illness

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

The old man was agitated and panicked, clenching his fist and punching himself hard in the legs.

Even if you hit it, it wouldn't even feel a thing!

The old man was furious and smashed...

The door creaked open. Yang Huazhong, who had just finished setting off fireworks outside, saw the old man harming himself at once. The young man was startled and rushed over, grabbing hold of Lao Yang's hand: "Father, what are you doing Don't do this!"

“What's the big deal They're just a pair of useless legs anyway!” Old Yang said angrily.

Yang Huazhong tightened his grip on Lao Yangtou's hand: "Dad, don't talk like that. After the tenth day of the lunar new year, the clinic in the county should open. By then we'll take you to the county to see a doctor. Just bear with it for these few days!"

Hearing that he had to take himself to get his leg treated on the tenth day, Lao Yang finally loosened his fist.

He grabbed Yang Huazhong's sleeve and burst into tears like a child: "Third brother, my father is suffering! I've reached this age and can't even get out of bed. I rely on you all even for a simple urination. Life is unbearable for me! Please don't break your promise and take me to the county town to see a doctor!"
