The Record of Swordsmen in the Late Sui and Early Tang Dynasties

Chapter 314: Three hundred and three

After dinner, Duan Wuji stood up.

"Father, mother, eldest brother, sister-in-law, Jinhua, I am indeed tired today, I went back to my room to rest, let's chat!"

After finishing speaking, Duan Wuji walked out from the main room and returned to his west wing room. Duan Wuji got on the kang, and immediately sat cross-legged on the kang and began to practice.

In the morning of the next day, Duan Wuji still got up early and went for a long run, and when he came back he was still practicing martial arts in the yard.

All life has returned to its previous calm, the family lives in harmony, and all life seems so peaceful and comfortable.

In the blink of an eye, more than half a month passed, and Duan Wuji lived in peace and tranquility during this time.

This morning, Duan Wuji had just had breakfast when he came back from a long-distance run, and before he had time to go out to practice martial arts, the second grandfather Duan Yingchun hurried in.

When Duan Wuji saw him, he quickly gave up his seat.

"Second Grandpa, sit down quickly, hey, Second Grandpa, what's the matter?

Dad, my second grandpa is here, so hurry up and come out. "

Duan Yanqing listened in the back room and came out.

"Second uncle, I haven't seen you for a long time. What's the matter today? Tell me quickly."

"Yanqing! Your third grandfather is sick! And it's not serious!

I'm afraid he won't be able to make it this year, so I came here to let you know. "

"Really? What happened to Third Grandpa recently? Wasn't he in good health before?
How did this suddenly become ill? "

"Oh! The age is a bit too big, this person is over eighteen years old.

Who knows how to get sick if everything is fine?

Everyone knows that a human life of seventy is rare since ancient times, which is more than the age of a saint.

There is no way around this, Yanqing!

Take some time to go over and have a look, the old man misses your family so much. "

Duan Yanqing burst into tears when he heard this.

"The third grandfather is kind and kind, he helped our family a lot in the past!

How can it be said that it will not work?

Alas, there is really no way!

Promise!Hurry up and call your brother, your sister-in-law, and our family will go over immediately.

If we don't see each other again, I'm afraid we won't see each other again in the future. "

Duan Wuji agreed and walked out, the time was not too long, Duan Yanqing's family was all present.

When everyone heard that the third grandfather was dying, tears fell down one after another.

Duan Yanqing couldn't help shaking his head and sighing!

"Hey! Your third grandpa is really a good man! However, he is a bit too old. At such an old age, there is nothing to do about it!

Let's go, let's all go and see his old man.

It is also the best to see the old man for the last time and say a few words to him. "

The family came to Duanjiaji, walked into the third grandfather's house, and saw a lot of people standing in the yard, talking quietly in twos and threes, and they didn't know what they were talking about.

The family followed Duan Yingchun into the main room and went straight to the third grandfather's house.

When I entered the house, I saw the third grandpa was lying on the kang. There was a charcoal brazier in the house, and the house was quite warm.

When the third grandfather saw Duan Yanqing's family walking in, he struggled to sit up.

When Duan Yanqing saw it, he quickly supported him.

"Third Grandpa, what's wrong with you old man? Why did you suddenly fall ill?
Today our whole family is here to see you, old man. "

The third grandfather forced a smile when he heard this.

"Yanqing! Your whole family is here? Third grandfather, I have nothing serious, but I am a little too old.

I recently had a little stroke, isn't this just bedridden?
It's okay, it's okay, it might pass after a while.

Yanqing!You all sit down quickly. "

When Duan Wuji saw the appearance of the third grandfather, his face was scorched yellow and his mouth was blue, he knew that he was seriously ill!

Not long after, the third grandpa fell into a deep sleep again, and the room fell into a deathly silence again.

Duan Wuji looked at Duan Yingchun and whispered: "Second grandfather, third grandfather is ill, didn't you ask the doctor to show him?"

"Look, why didn't you look!"

"Then what did the doctor say?"

"The doctor said that your third grandfather is too old after all, with both Qi and blood deficiency, and there is no other major problem."

"Then did he prescribe any medicine?"

After hearing this, Duan Yingchun smiled wryly and said, "Why didn't you prescribe the medicine! It's just that the medicine is too expensive, and our small family can't afford it!"

"What kind of medicine did you prescribe? Can you tell me about it?"

"Well, there are ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum, Cordyceps, and deer antler. They are these medicinal materials. I asked him to boil them as tea, and they slowly replenished them."

"Oh, it's good to have a prescription. Have you bought the medicine?"

"I bought ten sets of medicines, and the money alone cost 500 taels! You said that two sets of medicines a day, who can afford it!

I don't know how many secondary medicines it takes to heal, it's really worrying! "

Duan Wuji sneered and said, "Second Grandpa, the three 500 taels shouldn't be a big deal to your family!
Your family is not so poor that you don't even have 500 taels of silver. "

"There is still 3000 taels of silver, but if it goes on like this for a long time, then what a leader!"

Duan Wuji laughed and said, "Let me, Brother Changqing, Brother Changhong, and Brother Changhao, each pay 1 taels.

Let's take care of it first, and our family will take care of it when the money is over. It's okay.

This deficiency of qi and blood is usually not fatal.

Second Grandpa, I'm not talking about you, you old master, how can you not even settle such a small matter? "

Willow cauliflower listened to Duan Wuji.

"Damn, don't say a few words. What's the matter with you?"

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Why is it nothing to do with me? Don't forget, I am the new patriarch of our Duan family. If you don't talk about it, who will?"

At this moment, Tieniu's family also walked in.

Tieniu greeted everyone in the room in a low voice, while Duan Yingchun sat on the kang and sighed unceasingly.

Duan Yingchun looked at Duan Wuji and said in a low voice: "This is the medicine money for your third grandfather's treatment, our family can afford it.

But, it’s just that this Cordyceps sinensis is not easy to buy, and this thing is very expensive. If you say that it’s out of stock, it will kill your third grandfather. "

Duan Wuji thought for a while and said: "Hey, Second Grandpa, what's so difficult about this, can't we buy some from the place of origin?

Why bother to buy it from that herb shop?Do you think it makes sense? "

"Buy from the place of origin? Is this okay?"

"Why not? As long as we find out the place of origin, I don't believe that we can't buy the goods. Isn't there still more than two months before the Chinese New Year?
I don't believe we can't buy the goods back during this time.

Second Grandpa, find out how much the best Cordyceps sinensis in our place costs per catty, and I'll go buy it tomorrow. "

Tie Niu laughed and said, "Brother, let's go together.

Brother, I will be your companion. "

Duan Wuji smiled and said: "Brother Tieniu, if you don't live at home with my sister-in-law, what are you going to do?"

"Brother, you also know that brother, I am a person who can't sit still. If I stay at home for a long time, I will get annoyed. How nice it is to go out and walk around when you have nothing to do!

Besides, Grandfather Sanzu used to be kind to our family, and he only helped our family before.

You said that the life is rich now, how can we forget the great kindness of his old man!

Isn't that so heartless? "

"Well, since that's the case, then fine, let's set off on time tomorrow.

Hey, brother Tieniu, don't forget to bring 3000 taels of silver from home when you go, do you hear me clearly? "

"Well, I understand."

Duan Wuji said to Duan Yingchun: "Second Grandpa, don't be idle, go to the pharmacy to find out, otherwise, we will know which direction to go tomorrow!"

When Duan Yingchun heard this, a smile appeared on his face.

"Okay, okay, okay! I'll do it right away, you guys wait here first, I'll be back in a while."

After speaking, Duan Yingchun hurried out.

Duan Yanqing's family sat and chatted with Tieniu's family, waiting for news from Duan Yingchun. An hour later, Duan Yingchun hurried in.

"Wuji! Just now I went out and found out that this Cordyceps is now in the pharmacy for 1000 taels of silver per catty. This thing grows on the plateau in the southwest of our country.

That place does not belong to the national border of our Great Sui Kingdom, and that place seems to be called Tubo Kingdom.

I'm not sure if it's the sound or not.

It might be cheaper there. "

Duan Wuji listened and nodded.

"Okay, okay! Second Grandpa, I know about this matter, Second Grandpa, don't worry about this matter. My brother Tieniu and I will set off tomorrow.

Why!Second Grandpa, is the family short of money?If you are short of money, you can go to our house to get it, and you can take as much as you need. Our family does not lack this thing now. "

Duan Yingchun laughed and said: "In a short period of time, our family will not be short of that thing, and if it is missing, I will take it from your house.

Hey, Promise!You go this time, I will give you 3000 taels of silver, how can you go out without money? "

Duan Wuji smiled.

"Second Grandpa, don't worry about money, our family doesn't lack such things.

Besides, our two families are obliged to see the doctor of the third grandfather, so how can you pay for it? "

"This, how good is this! How can our family let your family spend money? How inappropriate!"

Duan Yanqing laughed and said, "Second Uncle, what's appropriate or not? The two small money should be paid by our two families.

My idea is also, no matter what, I want to save my third grandfather's life, second uncle, if there is any difficulty, just say something, since I know about it, then I, Duan Yanqing, can't ignore it.

Promise, let's go, let's go home and get ready, you will start on time tomorrow morning.

As the saying goes, saving a life is like putting out a fire, so don't delay this matter! "

After speaking, Duan Yanqing led the family straight to the house.
