Chapter 41 The Hearts of Parents Are Full of Pity
Chapter 41 The Hearts of Parents Are Full of Pity
How could Li Yi possibly bear it when an elderly man over fifty years old knelt down before him?
As soon as he saw the old woman's movements, he quickly reached out to support her.
"Grandpa, what are you doing? Get up quickly."
To everyone's surprise, the old woman shook her head. "Young man, I've figured things out. It was indeed my daughter who deliberately grabbed the wrong medicine, almost harming your friend."
Since she refuses to admit her mistake, then only the old woman can stand in for her and kowtow to you in apology.
As she spoke, she tried to kneel down again.
However, Li Yi couldn't possibly let her kneel down.
"Fellow villager, you're exaggerating. My friends were just a little upset, which is why they were a bit harsh when they spoke just now."
Since you've already realized your mistake, let's just let it go this time. There's no need for you to kneel and kowtow.
"No! As a doctor, one should practice benevolence and compassion, and be worthy of heaven and earth and one's own conscience. However, my daughter, out of selfishness, committed murder for money, and her crime is unforgivable."
As the saying goes, the retribution for good and evil follows like a shadow; the cause and effect of three lifetimes cycle without fail.
Young friend, please have pity on this old man and let me suffer in her place.
"Grandpa, you..."
Seeing the old woman in front of him, Li Yi rambled on for a long time, but in the end, he still had to kowtow and apologize on behalf of his daughter.
He originally intended to simply pull the person up.
But the next moment, Li Yi's gaze inadvertently swept over Wang Yingnan, and he was immediately stunned.
Then, a flash of inspiration struck me.
"I see!"
Li Yi looked at Wang Yingnan and finally understood why the old woman in front of him insisted on kowtowing and apologizing.
"Enough, enough! Liver qi stagnation and spleen dysfunction, my dear old friend, you've really gone to great lengths for this."
After figuring all this out, Li Yi completely let go of her hands, allowing the old woman in front of him to kneel down.
Wang Tao and the others, who were standing nearby, were quite surprised to see him say something inexplicably and then stand there motionless.
On the contrary, the old woman's eyes immediately showed a look of shock after hearing Li Yi's words.
Then, a wry smile appeared on her face. "I didn't expect that you, young man, would have such keen insight at such a young age. In that case, I seem to be being pretentious."
Upon hearing this, Li Yi shook his head. "The hearts of parents are always full of love and concern. Old lady, you truly possess great kindness and compassion!"
Seeing that he truly understood her meaning, the old woman said nothing more and immediately kowtowed heavily to the ground.
"This old woman, Wang Yinghe, kowtows in gratitude to my young friend for his kindness!"
When Wang Tao and the others saw Li Yi standing there upright, letting the over-fifty-year-old Wang Yinghe kowtow and apologize, they were greatly surprised.
On the contrary, Wang Yingnan, who was standing to the side, completely broke down when he saw his mother kneeling and kowtowing in front of a young man in his twenties.
"Mom, get up quickly!"
As Wang Yingnan spoke, she quickly ran over.
She wanted to help her mother up, but the woman remained kneeling on the ground, refusing to get up.
"Xiao Nan, everyone makes mistakes, but we should acknowledge our mistakes, correct them, and strive to gain others' forgiveness."
Upon hearing Wang Yinghe's words, Wang Yingnan immediately knelt down in front of Li Yi and kowtowed three times.
"Mom, I was wrong. I'm the one who should kowtow and apologize. Please, please get up! Waaah~"
Li Yi remained standing still, enduring Wang Yingnan's three kowtows before finally speaking: "For your mother's sake, we will let this matter go."
However, remember this: think twice before you act. If you make the same mistake again, you might not be so lucky.
"Waaah~ I promise I'll never prescribe medicine for people randomly again, please, please let my mom get up."
Looking at her daughter who was crying uncontrollably, Wang Yinghe's eyes also showed a trace of pity.
"Okay, stop crying. We've already apologized, and they're not going to pursue the matter any further. Get up now."
"Mom, let me help you!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Yingnan immediately got up from the ground and then reached out to help his mother up as well.
Wang Tao and the other two watched helplessly as Li Yi showed such a heartless attitude, and for a moment they found it hard to accept.
However, at least the mother and daughter in front of them had stood up from the ground, and they finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Since Wang Yinghe would set up such a scheme for her daughter, Li Yi believed that her medical skills were not bad either.
So he said directly, "Old man, this is all I can do to help you. The rest is up to you."
Wang Tao and the others were completely baffled when they saw that Li Yi had already taken such a big advantage from someone else, yet now he was acting as if he had done them a great favor.
Wang Yingnan was equally baffled.
In fact, the way she looked at Li Yi was filled with deep hatred.
Wang Yinghe, on the other hand, smiled and nodded, "Young friend, you are indeed a compassionate doctor. In that case, I have something to offer you, and I hope you will not refuse."
Li Yi didn't know if the other party had any further arrangements, so he could only nod and say, "It would be impolite to refuse such a gift from an elder."
"Please wait a moment, young friend."
Wang Yinghe nodded and then went back inside the pharmacy.
After a while, when she returned, she was carrying a small cloth bag.
We don't know what's inside.
"Young friend, my family has been practicing medicine for generations and left behind a medical manual. However, I am too dull-witted to comprehend it. Rather than leave it to you, I would like to give it to you."
Upon hearing that this was an heirloom passed down through generations, Li Yi immediately shook his head and refused, saying, "Old man, this is too precious for me to accept."
Wang Yinghe shook her head. "What's so precious about it? If it stays in my hands, it's just a roll of tattered paper."
Young friend, you are kind-hearted and skilled in medicine. If you can learn something from this and use it to help others, then you will truly honor my ancestors' name.
Li Yi is indeed very interested in the medical techniques passed down from ancient times.
Seeing that Wang Yinghe genuinely wanted to give it to him, he hesitated for a moment before taking the cloth bag from her. "Since that's the case, I'll shamelessly accept it."
Seeing this, Wang Yinghe nodded in satisfaction. "By the way, young friend, my family has a history of feuds with others. If you are able to comprehend some medical skills from this, please keep it a secret for me if you meet someone you know in the future."
What deep-seated hatred could be passed down from generation to generation?
Li Yi was taken aback for a moment upon hearing this, then immediately nodded, "Don't worry, old man, I've got it."
That's the end of the matter.
The group didn't linger and left Huichuntang immediately.
As soon as she got into the car, Wang Tao couldn't help but scold, "Xiao Li, what you did just now went a bit too far! How could you make an old man kowtow and kneel down for you?"
Xu Yourong, who already had a short temper, couldn't help but speak up, "Exactly! He's already so old, aren't you afraid of shortening your lifespan?"
Although Wen Rui didn't say anything, her gaze towards Li Yi was somewhat dissatisfied.
