Hearing his fourth brother’s voice, Yang Gang’s wife was extrely surprised and hurried to open the door, "Fourth brother, don’t be foolish, those two taels of silver, their family doesn’t even pay themselves, why should our family pay? Besides, I don’t believe they don’t have two taels of silver, they just don’t want to pay."
Although she just felt sympathetic towards Yang Xiaocui in the house, feeling she was quite pitiful, this was another matter. Their family wasn’t supporting everyone, and it was clear that Yang Xiaocui’s family had a grudge against them.
Yang Gang also grabbed his brother’s arm, "Fourth brother, you can’t just ddle in every trifling matter."
Yang Gang shared the sa sentint as his wife. If people weren’t willing to pay themselves, if his brother paid this ti, who knows what might happen in the future.
Hearing soone was willing to pay the silver, the old doctor was naturally pleased. No matter who paid, as long as it was paid, he could leave. He said, "Then let’s get the silver paid."
Yang Gang and his wife’s words didn’t change Yang Dong’s mind. He directly pulled out two taels of crushed silver from his pocket and handed them to the old doctor, "Doctor, I’ll send you back now."
This act made Yang Gang’s wife furious, and she hurriedly shouted, "Fourth brother, you..."
Actually, Yang Dong understood his brother and sister-in-law’s aning, but he couldn’t just watch Yang Xiaocui deteriorate because she didn’t take her dicine. Who knows, she might even beco his wife in the future. Spending two taels might just be spending two taels. Even if she isn’t his wife, he’ll consider it an act of kindness helping soone, "Second brother, second sister-in-law, let’s discuss this when we get ho."
After speaking, he said to the old doctor, "Doctor, I’ll take you back to town now."
The old doctor took the silver, nodding in satisfaction, "Let’s go."
Yang Dong shouted towards the house, "Auntie Lan Hua, I’m leaving now to see the doctor off."
Auntie Lan Hua was still in a daze, and upon hearing the call, she quickly replied, "Alright, you go on then."
Yang Dong thus walked the old doctor out of Yang Xiaocui’s courtyard.
Yang Gang and his wife were left behind. Yang Gang’s wife was really angered by Yang Dong, and she entered the house to see Lan Hua’s family looking smug, which further provoked her, "Hmph, what are you so smug about? Your daughter is ill, and you can’t even give her two taels of silver. Aren’t you ashad if word gets out?"
"Don’t think just because my fourth brother paid those two taels of silver it ans he agrees to this marriage. This is not for him alone to decide."
Having thrown these words, Yang Gang’s wife left the house, dragged Yang Gang along in a huff, wanting to go back and tell her parents.
After Yang Gang and his wife left, Yang Xiaocui’s family was overjoyed.
"Daughter, your marriage is almost certainly settled, didn’t you see Yang Dong’s attitude just now? He clearly favors you."
"Yes, mother-in-law, this ti little sister truly is well off."
"Absolutely! Their family is indeed wealthy; Yang Dong casually took out two taels of silver."
"Little sister, you’ve married well, make sure you don’t forget your brothers and sisters-in-law."
"..."
"..."
Listening to her family’s words, Yang Xiaocui was once again extrely disappointed. Her family really gave up on her treatnt just for two taels of silver, not even as good as Yang Dong. Despite how much she pressured him just now, he still helped her. He was truly kind-hearted, and if she really could marry him in the future, she would make sure to live well with him.
Because of the potential marriage arrangent with Yang Dong, Yang Xiaocui’s family drastically changed their attitude towards her, offering her food and dicine. However, at this mont, Yang Xiaocui felt no warmth from familial affection.
