91 The Knot In A Woman’s Heart
Xia Wan spoke very sincerely, and under her persuasion, the woman finally agreed to let her take her pulse.
From their conversation, Xia Wan also found out that the woman’s name was Huang Ying. When she was young, she had many suitors, but she took a fancy to a man who worked in the same factory. Now, her man had been promoted and was the factory director, with dozens of people working under him.
She had given birth to two sons for the man. Now, one of the two sons had gone to work in the factory after graduating from high school, and the other was still in junior high, though he wasn’t doing well in his studies.
Moreover, because their father was the manager of the factory, the two sons were a little arrogant and always felt that they were nobler than others.
Although Huang Ying also worked in a factory, her parents had gone to high school and were more cultured. Thus, they had instilled in Huang Ying from a young age the idea of not looking down on others.
Even if her husband was a director now, what would happen in the future? A director was still an employee in a factory, and it wasn’t like the factory could always stay open. She had once lectured her two sons, but now that she didn’t continue to work, her two sons looked down on her. They thought she was just an idle person in the family and had no position to speak at all.
Xia Chen had a sense of justice. After hearing Huang Ying’s words, he couldn’t help but say, “Sister, this isn’t your problem. It’s your two sons. Even if my parents were lying in bed and couldn’t move, I would definitely stay by their side as their son. Our parents raised us. If we’re not filial to them, how can we be worthy of being called human?”
Huang Ying looked at Xia Chen, who had a serious expression on his face. Xia Chen even seemed a little angry when he heard the story. This only made Huang Ying like the two even more.
“Sigh, everyone says that the town is good, but sometimes when the living conditions are better, people’s hearts change,” Huang Ying said with some emotion.
Despite all of that, Xia Wan felt she had no right to comment on Huang Ying’s family matters. Even if she said that Huang Ying was not in the wrong and that her two sons were the ones at fault, so what?
Huang Ying didn’t have a job now, and if she left the house, she wouldn’t be able to make a living. Even if her sons treated her very well, they were her biological sons. No matter what, Huang Ying wouldn’t leave them.
“Sister, don’t think that you can’t do it just because others disagree with you,” Xia Wan said. “I can tell that you were a beauty when you were young. You’ll definitely look much better if you dress up a little.
“As for your son and husband, you’re still young, and your sons are all grown up. You can manage yourself now. You can do whatever you want. I feel that you must be skillful at many things.”
Xia Wan’s words made Huang Ying very happy. This kind of affirmation and recognition made Huang Ying happy from the bottom of her heart.
The best compliment she would hear at home was the disdain of the three. Now, she was out shopping for clothes with the money she had saved up over the years. It was nothing short of depressing. She wanted to spend for herself once.
She didn’t expect that the moment she arrived and before she even bought any clothes, she would tell the two children about her grievances with her family. After letting it out, however, Huang Ying felt a lot more comfortable, as if the huge rock that had been pinning her heart down was lifted.
After a simple check of her pulse, Xia Wan determined that Huang Ying’s condition was caused by an endocrine disorder, and the main cause was the knot in her heart. She could prescribe medicine to alleviate her condition, but if she wanted to solve the root of it, she had to give her some counseling and let Huang Ying walk out of it on her own.
Xia Wan hesitated and said, “Sister, I can prescribe you some medicine, but it can only alleviate your condition. The strange odor is caused by the suppression of your emotions for a long time. Combined with your pulse and what you said before, your condition started two years ago. Can I ask what happened to you two years ago?”
When Huang Ying heard her words, she looked a little embarrassed, and it looked like she was struggling with something hard to say.
