w, moonlight illuminating his face. Zong Bai was startled when he saw it."Zong Hu Ge, you, you how did you lose so much weight all of a sudden."Zong Hu waved his hand. "I know something happened in th...After the sunset, another argument broke out in the old ancestral home of the Zong family, mixed with the cries of a young woman.

Zhong Ping was so preoccupied with making money that he completely forgot about his grandson, who was still running a high fever.

Zong Hu and Tie Zhu went up the mountain early in the morning to check on the water source. He thought his father would definitely invite the doctor back, so he let his wife stay home and wait at ease.

The whole day passed, and the woman sat in her room, holding her feverish child close. Her eyes were bloodshot from exhaustion, but the doctor hadn't returned.

Men of the clan are not allowed to enter a woman's house, Old Master Zong was sent out to discuss organizing people to dig a canal, and Old Madam Wu simply didn't care about anything.

When dinner time arrived, Zong Hu rushed back from outside, eager to see if the child had a fever.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw his wife holding their child, her eyes swollen from crying. She ran towards him immediately upon seeing him.

"Tiger Brother, where is the doctor"

"Has the father-in-law called the doctor back yet"

“The baby’s eyes are burning so badly, Tiger Brother.”

For as long as the child had a fever, Wang Yan'er had cried for that long. Zong Hu hurriedly supported his wife, his face filled with alarm.

"What Dad's not back yet"

Even though their village is in the mountains, it shouldn't take a whole day and night to call a doctor, should it

Zhong Hu immediately ran to the main hall. Zong Pingkang had returned home in the morning and had a heated argument with Liu Shi before going back to his room and falling asleep.

He was sitting at the table, eating the roast chicken he had brought back, and drinking small wine with Old Zong.

"Little Tiger is back, quickly, give your son his bowl and chopsticks. Today, father brought back lots of delicious food. You sit down and eat too."

Zong Hu's face was as dark as charcoal.

"Father, where is the doctor"

"The children are burning with fever and in a coma, and you still have the heart to eat meat and drink here!"

Zong Hu could no longer contain himself, and by the end of his speech his voice had risen to a roar.

He knew children born in lean years were hard to raise, but their family didn't seem to be so destitute that they couldn't afford a doctor.

"Oh dear, my grandson is still on fire!" Mrs. Liu reacted the fastest, her chopsticks clattering to the floor.

"It's all your wife's fault, she's like a closed bottle. We forgot she can't just walk out the door and speak up for herself, did we"

"Someone who doesn't leave the house all day, never venturing out. If someone didn't know better, they'd think our family had just brought home a wealthy young lady."

Mrs. Liu disliked Wang Yanger very much because she saw a bit of Mu Shi in her.

If it weren't for the fact that she gave birth to a child for the family, he would have divorced her long ago.

It's better not to keep so many mouths to feed at home anymore, as food is getting increasingly expensive now.

"Mother, how can you say such things Yan'er has just given birth and hasn't even finished her confinement period yet. How can she go out"

"When I'm not at home, could you please keep an eye on her place a bit more"

The elder stood up, "Alright alright, everyone hush."

"The child is important, hurry and take a look."

Everyone rushed to Wang Yan'er's doorstep. Old Madam Wu felt a bit guilty; she and Liu had been at home all day but had completely forgotten about her grandson having a fever.

He dared not speak, fearing that he would be scolded by his own father.

Seeing the flush on Sun Shao's face, Master Zong felt uneasy. He turned and slapped Liu shi hard.

"With a cry of pain, Liu Shi collapsed to the ground." Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!

"We men don't know about peace at home, even forgetting to see a doctor is okay, but as the daughter-in-law, you should know this too!"

"What do you do at home all day, child is burning like this and you don't care."

Liu shrieked and burst into tears, covering her face and glancing at her mother-in-law, Mrs. Wu.

"I!"

"Why are you only hitting me Your mother-in-law is at home all day too, didn't she think about it either"

Mrs. Wu, fearing that the old man would also slap her, preemptively rushed to Mrs. Liu's face and slapped her with a resounding smack.

"You dare backtalk This old woman has a poor memory and often forgets things, you don't know that, do you."

"As you are the mother-in-law of Swallow, Little Tiger is the eldest grandson of our family. If anything were to happen to him, I would have Pingkang divorce you this wicked woman."

Zong Hu and his wife are now extremely anxious. The two mothers-in-law, Wu and Liu, are constantly blaming each other, crying and arguing, which is really annoying.

"That's enough! If you want to fight, go outside and do it."

Zong Hu was truly furious this time. He walked up to Old Master Zong, his eyes red with worry for his son, and suddenly knelt down with a thud.

"Grandpa, please save Little Tiger."sure enough he had not specially prepared a room for him."Okay."But he didn't care.King Jing pointed at the steward and those behind him, generously."I heard you're swamped. Need a hand"Fang Jinxiu wa...
