But Lin Jiazhong had his own pride and, after waging a three-day internal struggle, simply could not bring himself to ask Lin Jiaxin for help.

Ultimately, it was Lady Ma who came. As soon as she entered, she knelt down to Lin Jiaxin and Lady Liu, slapping her own face while apologizing.

Lady Liu was terrified and hurriedly pulled her up. Lin Jiaxin also repeatedly said that everything could be discussed.

However, when Lady Ma voiced her request for Lao Fan to save Lin Yongcheng, the couple fell silent.

They truly didn’t know how to tell Lady Ma that Lin Yongcheng was beyond medical help.

In fact, Lin Yuan had specifically sought out Lao Fan who, after hearing Xiao Linshuang’s description, had also shaken his head and said, "The disciple has not diagnosed incorrectly. "

Although she was praised by her master, Xiao Linshuang didn’t feel happy at all. This time, she deeply wished she had made a wrong diagnosis.

Seeing Lin Jiaxin and his wife pressured by Lady Ma into a difficult position where they could not speak, Xiao Linshuang finally could not restrain herself and stepped forward to say, "Aunt, please don’t make it hard for my parents.

Big Cousin’s illness is truly beyond cure now.

Even if my master came, it would be too late. "

Before Xiao Linshuang could finish, Lady Ma suddenly began screaming like a madwoman.

She pointed at Xiao Linshuang, cursing and yelling, "You’re talking nonsense!

Why would you curse my son? What do you mean it’s too late?

You just look down on us, you just don’t want to treat him!

You little wretch, I told you to talk nonsense, I’ll tear your mouth apart! "

With that, Lady Ma moved forward to scratch Xiao Linshuang’s face.

Xiao Linshuang quickly stepped back two paces, narrowly avoiding her attack.

Lin Jiaxin and Lady Liu came to their senses and staggered Lady Ma to one side.

Lady Liu, with her heart aching, protected her daughter and turned around to angrily rebuke, "You really are like a dog biting Lu Dongbin. My daughter treats your son, and instead of being grateful, you repay kindness with enmity! Humph, don’t think we don’t know.

You’ve consulted all the physicians in town, big and small, and they all said Yongcheng won’t live past the end of the year.

It’s not just my daughter who says so. What right do you have to lash out at my daughter? "

If before she could sympathize with her grief for her son, now she began to detest her. After all, as a mother, who wouldn’t feel pain for their own child?

Eveyone saying her son was done for, she didn’t believe but didn’t blame. Yet when Xiao Linshuang said it, she didn’t just disbelieve, she even viciously thought it was a curse upon her son! What is this? This is prejudice!

She thought the Lin family couldn’t bear to see them do well, hence she interpreted their intentions as malicious, that was the behavior of a petty person!

"Humph, you really have a hard heart, cursing my son!

My son is like this because you cursed him!

You bunch of malicious villains! Villains!

" Lady Ma numbly got up from the ground, her hair disheveled from the pushing and shoving, looking like a mother lion that had just lost her cubs, ferocious yet heartbroken.

Lady Liu, having also lost her own son, was very understanding of her feelings at the moment and didn’t want to argue. She waved her hand to have Ding Liang and Ding Ming drive her out.

Turning back to her distressed daughter, Lady Liu hugged her tightly and asked repeatedly to make sure her daughter was unharmed.

Lin Jiaxin also affectionately stroked his daughter’s hair and sighed, "Let’s not involve ourselves in their affairs any longer; it’s all fate, and there’s nothing we can do anyway."

Even though he wanted to help, the family didn’t appreciate it, so it’s better to not interfere.

Although everyone said Lin Yongcheng was unlikely to survive much longer, Lady Ma and Lin Jiazhong definitely didn’t believe it. They begged Shande Hall for their best, Doctor Wang, to prescribe medicine.

Doctor Wang also understood the feelings of the parents and symbolically prescribed some sedative and tranquilizing decoctions.

The couple returned home full of joy, although they didn’t want to admit it, they knew in their hearts that these medications were just for peace of mind; as for whether it could help, that was uncertain.

What pained them even more was that the frequency of Lin Yongcheng’s episodes was increasing, and each attack was more frightening than the last, even the medicine prescribed by Doctor Wang was ineffective.

Lin Jiazhong and his wife were worry-stricken all day, hardly leaving the house except to work in the town daily.

Lin Jiaxin and Lady Liu’s moods were not much better, affecting the atmosphere of the whole household with a sense of oppression.

Time flew, and by August, the wedding day of Meng Liangdong and Mo Sanniang arrived. After so many troubles, finally there was a joyous occasion that could cheer everyone up.
