Wang Yugui was just breathing a sigh of relief when he suddenly heard Miss Tan say, "I also dreamed about Abao!"

"Ah, what? Abao?" Wang Yugui's heart tightened again after hearing this.

Abao died of childbirth complications two years ago. Why is Miss Tan dreaming about her now?

Miss Tan took a sip of tea and nodded: "Yes, Abao doesn't talk either."

"It's just that you still follow me silently and play with me like when we were little!"

Miss Tan said, suddenly a little sad: "Hey, brother, if I knew that Abao would lose her life if she gave birth to a child, I would not let her get married!"

"Sister Tan, who can predict this kind of thing?" Wang Yugui listened and hurriedly comforted her: "You let her get married for her own good!"

"You even sent her daughter to the farm to be raised. You did a great job!"

"Oh, yes, life and death are determined by fate, wealth and honor are determined by God." Miss Tan nodded and said, "It can't be helped. I thought Abao could stay with me until old age! Unexpectedly, she passed away first!"

Wang Yugui suddenly felt that Miss Tan’s dream was a bit unlucky. Why did she dream about two dead people in a row?

He interrupted: "Sister Tan, you are still sick, don't always think about the deceased."

"You should dream about me more often, and dream about our Xiaojie!"

Miss Tan smiled after hearing this and reached out to grab Wang Yugui's hand: "Brother Gui, I don't need to see you in my dreams, you are right beside me!"

"Yes, that's right." Wang Yugui also held Miss Tan's hand tightly.

Miss Tan curled her lips and said, "I wonder if Xiaojie and his wife are doing well in Beijing now!"

Wang Yugui smiled: "Sister Tan, don't worry, Chunsheng and Damei are taking care of them. They are living well in the capital!"

"My elder sister wrote to me last time and praised Xiaojie. Didn't you read the letter?"

Miss Tan smiled and said, "Well, my son is good in every way, but he is a little stubborn."

"He insisted on waiting until he passed the imperial examination before getting married, but he failed twice, which made me very worried."

"Luckily he passed the imperial examination this year, otherwise I really can't let him do whatever he wants!"

Then he looked at Wang Yugui and said, "Brother Gui, when you were his age, you already had a son."

"Ha, Sister Tan, do you want to have a grandson?" Wang Yugui smiled after hearing this.

Miss Tan smiled and said, "Yes, now that my daughter-in-law has come home, of course I want to have a grandson. Brother, don't you want to?"

"Ah, me, haha, of course I thought about it," Wang Yugui laughed, "But there's no point in us rushing about this, we still have to look after the children!"

"Well, it would be great if Jie Er could bring me double happiness next year," Miss Tan smiled.

Wang Yugui also laughed: "Sister Tan, are you saying that our son will pass the imperial examination and give us a big fat grandson?"

"Haha, yes..." Miss Tan laughed and looked at Wang Yugui, "Oh, it's also my fault that my stomach is not doing well."

"I haven't gotten pregnant since I gave birth to Xiaojie. It would be great if I could have more children."

"Not to the extent that when a child goes out, the house becomes deserted!"

Wang Yugui listened and tried to comfort her: "Sister Tan, why are you saying that again?"

"Didn't I tell you that having Xiaojie is enough for us!"

Then he teased Miss Tan: "How can it be lonely at home? We still have you and me, hehe!"

"Well, there's also my mother." Miss Tan also laughed after hearing this.

Wang Yugui was very happy to see that Miss Tan was in good spirits during the conversation.

The couple snuggled together and talked for a long time. In the evening, the servant guarding the dock came to report: "Master, I have been waiting at the dock for a long time, but I haven't received Doctor Xue from Huaizhou!"

"I asked the people at the dock, and they said that the winds were strong these days, and the ship might have been delayed on the way, so it will take a day or two to arrive!"

"Okay, then you can go to the dock to pick them up tomorrow morning." Wang Yugui nodded, waved his hand, and asked the servant to leave.

Now that Miss Tan's condition has improved, he is not so anxious anymore.

Miss Tan talked to Wang Yugui for a long time and was in a very good mood. She ate a small bowl of white porridge, drank some medicine, felt a little tired, and lay down again.

When Wang came to see her, she had already fallen asleep. Wang Yugui and his mother left and went back to the front yard to have dinner.

As Miss Tan's condition improved, Wang Yugui's mood also improved.

Wang was also very happy and said happily: "Gui'er, mother, look, Xi'er looks much better now than a few days ago."

"Yes, mother," Wang Yugui nodded with a smile, "Maybe the medicine prescribed by Doctor Wang is working!"

Wang suddenly started coughing, and Wang Yugui hurried forward to give her tea and pat her back: "Mom, what's wrong with you? Are you sick?"

"Hey, mom is fine." Wang coughed a few times, drank a sip of tea, and waved to her son: "Mom is not sick, she is just old, and she coughs occasionally, it's nothing!"

"Didn't Doctor Wang come to check my mother's pulse a few days ago? I'm in good health!"

Wang said, looking at her son lovingly: "As long as you are here, nothing will happen to mother!"

Wang Yugui looked at Wang's head full of white hair and felt deeply moved. When he first met this ancient mother, she was only in her thirties and still very young.

Now she is a 66-year-old white-haired old woman!

"Mom, you have to take care of yourself when I'm not around." Wang Yugui looked at Wang and suddenly said this.

Wang was surprised when she heard this: "Gui'er, are you going out? Where are you going?"

"Ah? Mom, I, I'm not going anywhere." Wang Yugui came back to his senses and smiled.

Wang also smiled, frowned and said, "What did you say just now? I thought you were going away, you scared me!"

Wang Yugui also laughed. He didn't know why he suddenly said that.

The mother and son were talking and eating dinner when suddenly, the little girl in the backyard came to report in a hurry: "Master, something bad has happened, something bad has happened..."

Wang Yugui frowned and shouted, "What happened? You are so flustered! How can you be so unbecoming!"

"What happened?" Wang asked hurriedly.

The little girl said anxiously: "Madam, she fainted!"

"Ah!" Wang Yugui was so frightened that he stood up and ran to the backyard.

When he arrived at the backyard, he saw that Miss Tan was pale, her eyes were closed, and she was breathing weakly. Wang Yugui hurriedly called out, "Sister Tan, what's wrong with you?"

"Madam just woke up and said she wanted some water. I just brought her some water and she suddenly fainted," the little girl cried.

Wang also rushed over, and seeing the little girl crying, she hurriedly shouted, "The master is asking you a question, why are you crying!"

Looking at Miss Tan lying on the bed, he felt very unwell and hurriedly said to Wang Yugui: "Gui'er, please ask Doctor Wang to come over and take a look!"

"Oh, that's right." Wang Yugui nodded and said, "Oh, I was so flustered that I forgot about it!"

As he said this, he hurriedly asked someone to invite Doctor Xiao Wang, who came in a hurry and frowned after taking the patient's pulse: "Strange, how could this happen?"

"Mr. Wang, what's wrong? Is there anything wrong?" Wang Yugui asked hurriedly.

Doctor Wang lowered his head in thought, then looked up at Wang Yugui and said, "Master Wang, your wife's pulse is very strange."

"I can't make a definite diagnosis at the moment. I can only try acupuncture first. If he wakes up, I can prescribe medicine for him. Do you think that's okay?"
