Wang Yongzhu was startled. Although she didn't like Wang Laozhu very much, thinking him biased and obstinate, always causing her trouble and frustration,

yet when she actually heard that he was dying, she didn't feel the relief she had expected; instead, a faint sadness crept in.

Old Granny Zhang, despite being disappointed with her husband Wang Laozhu, had never wished for his death! There were many elderly men and wives of his age in Qilidun who lived tough lives but were still alive and well.

Why then, as the Wang Family's days were getting better, did this wretched old man have to go?

It was Song Chongjin who kept his composure. Seeing the doctor ready to leave, he hurriedly grabbed him and whispered something in his ear.

The doctor nodded, took out a small porcelain bottle from his medicine box and handed it to Song Chongjin, gave some instructions, accepted the doctor's fee, and hurried away.
