Mrs. Shu thanked him several times. Then she thought of something and hurried back to collect the money from yesterday's wild boar sale.
Old Man Shu pointed to the freshly washed Wulingshen in the basket and asked, "Where's this?"
"Bring it with you. If the money is not enough, you can use it to make up for it."
Not long after, the village chief arrived driving a donkey cart.
Old Mrs. Shu hugged Yan Yan, and Old Man Shu climbed onto the donkey cart carrying the black ginseng covered with a rag. The others could only wait at home.
Fortunately, Yaoshui Village is not very far from Fugui Town, and it took the group less than half an hour to arrive at the medical center where Shu Mingyi was treated.
Before entering the door, I heard the pitiful cry of the woman in the house: "I told you not to run around, but you insisted on running home. It's fine now. The donkey cart is gone and the person has fallen. Are you ready?"
How can we orphans and widowed mothers live?"
The clerk at the medical clinic whispered persuasion from the side: "Sister-in-law, the patient has passed out, and he can't hear you even if you cry your heart out, why not let him sleep peacefully for a while."
It was okay if I didn’t persuade him, but after I persuaded him, the woman cried even harder.
Not only did the woman cry, but the little boy next to the woman also cried.
Mrs. Shu walked into the hospital and looked at Shu Mingyi, who was lying on the bed with her life or death uncertain, and then at Shu Qingfeng, whose arm was wrapped in gauze. Her heart was beating fast.
"Lao Er's family, what on earth is going on?"
The second daughter-in-law, Mrs. Yang, wiped her tears and looked at the visitor. When her eyes glanced at Yan Yan in Mrs. Shu's arms, her eyes flickered.
Finally, he turned away and said: "Didn't my father go to the store yesterday? Mingyi heard that his niece had gone to Yaoshui Village, so he wanted to take Qingfeng back to have a look. Who knew that he ran into a robbery by refugees on the way.
Mingyi was hit on the back of the head and passed out on the spot, Qingfeng was also stabbed, and the donkey cart was also snatched away by them..."
While talking, Yang started to cry sadly again.
Her father saved up for three years to buy that donkey cart!
Mrs. Shu had no time to comfort her, so she turned to ask the clerk at the medical clinic: "Brother, how are my Mingyi and Qingfeng doing now?"
The clerk pointed at Shu Qingfeng, who was huddled in the corner and wiping tears. "The little one is fine. The wound is not deep. It will heal in a few days. The older one...I can't say for sure. Let my master tell you."
After finishing speaking, he turned around and called the old doctor in the backyard over.
The old doctor looked at Mrs. Shu and the others, and asked the assistant to bring stools for them to sit firmly before speaking: "The patient's current condition is very bad, because the injury is to the brain, and I am not sure whether he can still wake up.
"
"What do you mean by this?"
"It means whether he can survive or not depends entirely on his own good fortune. If his good fortune is good, he may wake up soon. If his good fortune is not good, he may wake up..."
The doctor didn't finish what he said next, but Mrs. Shu's heart was already half cold.
"So we can only wait? How long will it take to get results?"
"The patient is strong and will be fine for the next two days. But if he doesn't wake up after two days, he will have to hang himself with ginseng soup. He can probably hang on for ten and a half days."
The old doctor glanced at the simple clothes of several people and sighed: "But I suggest you just wait for these two days. Ginseng is expensive and most people can't afford it. And with his condition, even if he wakes up later, it will cost a lot of money."
flower……"
"Let's save people!" Mrs. Shu interrupted him without hesitation, "We are willing to delay as long as we can, no matter how much money we spend. Doctor, please save our Mingyi family."
"Are you sure? Just one piece of old ginseng costs hundreds of taels of silver, and other medicinal materials are also used. I can't tell you exactly how much it will cost."
Mrs. Shu turned her head and looked at her man, nodded firmly and said, "Save! We must save!"
At this time, Mrs. Yang couldn't help but speak: "Father, mother, um... the business of the carpentry shop has not been very good in the past two years. I haven't made much money. I really can't come up with so much money. How about we..."
"Don't take any more treatment." The words were pressed in my throat, but I didn't have the heart to say them out.
"We will pay for this money. He is obviously my son. I will not leave him alone."
Mrs. Shu dropped a word coldly.
In fact, she had never been interested in the second daughter-in-law, but it was the old carpenter who proposed the marriage, and the second child nodded in agreement, and the parents were too embarrassed to refuse.
Mr. Yang is not that bad, he is quick at work, but he is too high-spirited.
Because she was a girl from the town, she looked down on the people in the village. She wanted to climb high and marry in the city, but she accidentally married Shu Mingyi, a man from the village.
However, the second child and his family have been living in the town most of the time these days, and there have been no major conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
At the moment, Mrs. Shu was worried about her son's health and had no time to talk to her. She made her attitude clear and ignored her.
"Grandma, can Yan Yan go see her second uncle?"
Xiaotuanzi touched the back of the old lady's hand and asked in a low voice.
Mrs. Shu gathered her emotions, put her down, and said, "Be careful, just don't touch his head."
"Yes." Yan Yan nodded, walked to the bed with small steps, carefully touched the man's big hand on the edge of the bed, and then closed her eyes piously: "Please, let my second uncle get better quickly!
"
Yang, who was sitting by the door, clenched his fists angrily when he saw this scene.
Hum, the cat cries and the mouse fakes mercy!
If he hadn't gone home to see this bad guy, would something have happened to Mingyi?
Now that everyone has fallen, what's the use of coming over and touching your hands and saying a few hypocritical words?
Old Man Shu noticed her indignant expression, licked his lips and said: "From the second child's family, why don't you take Qing Feng home first? If something like this goes wrong, the child will definitely be frightened. Take him with you."
Go home and coax her, we are here."
When Mrs. Yang saw that her son's lips were chapped, she felt distressed and left without looking back.
Old Man Shu glanced at her back and felt a little uncomfortable, "The second daughter-in-law has no feelings for her at all."
"Who can I blame for the wife I chose?" Mrs. Shu continued, "I am just hoping that my second son will wake up. As long as she is still here, nothing else matters."
Yan Yan turned back, nodded vigorously and said, "Grandma, don't worry, my second uncle will definitely wake up!"
If she doesn't wake up for a day, she will stay by the bed all day long;
If she doesn't wake up for two days, she will stay awake for two days, and one day she will wake up.
She is a person with good luck!
Mrs. Shu felt warm in her heart, "Well, grandma believes in you... Well, old man, go outside and buy some food for Yan Bao. You must be hungry after a long day of tossing, right?"
Yan Yan rubbed her round belly. She originally wanted to say that she wasn't hungry, but suddenly she thought that her grandmother and grandfather were also hungry, so she nodded.
Old man Shu went out for a walk and happened to meet a group of homeless people begging for food. They were like bandits and rushed up when they saw people. One man was unprepared and was surrounded by homeless people. In the end, he couldn't even save his pants!
Fortunately, he reacted quickly and escaped with oil on his soles.
