Chapter 37

"Uncle and aunt, have you encountered any difficulties? Is it because of your cousin?"

Su Juan asked hesitantly.

The two have a son, Li Zhong, and a daughter, Li Min. Li Zhong is 20 years old and not yet married. Li Min has some congenital deficiencies since he was born, and has been at home all year round. Now he is 14 years old, and his immunity is not very good. He often suffers from colds and fevers. For some things, seeing a doctor and taking medicine is even more commonplace.

The husband and wife have no idea of ​​patriarchy, they only think that the daughter is also a piece of flesh that fell from their body, so they love her no less than their son's. The daughter needs to take medicine, and the two don't care about money at all. As long as it can save the daughter from suffering, they are willing to change it even if they sell everything. Besides, An's care is never careless. She will get up several times at night to tuck Li Min in order to prevent her condition from getting worse.

In fact, the situation of the family can be counted in Nanyuan Village. In the early years, my uncle studied with a master carpenter for a few years and could make some simple small furniture. Do.

Furthermore, their parents also took him with them when they opened a grocery store. Every time he made good things, they would sell them in their parents' grocery store, and he could make a lot of money all year round.

But ever since their parents had an accident and their family property was taken over by the Su family, Su Changdong took possession of the items made by his uncle, even if they sold them, he would not give any money. It's because the grocery store has been in a deficit all these years, and the small furniture he made didn't make any money at all. The reason why they could make money before was all because of his sister and brother-in-law helping them out of kindness.

Uncle couldn't understand the accounts, so he took it for granted and didn't ask for the money. Later, he cut wood at home and made some scattered items to sell, but he fell down while cutting wood, and he was still in poor health and couldn't do much. Work hard.

Coupled with the fact that Li Min had to see a doctor and take medicine all the time, the situation at home became even worse.

The uncle sighed, but his youthful face was full of oldness, "It's all my fault, your cousin has always been in poor health, and she had been given ginseng pills before to make it better, but a while ago came to town The guy who sells the magic medicine said it can cure all diseases. I heard what they said was a god, so I bought it for Miner to eat, but Miner vomited blood after eating it, and now..."

Li Fujun couldn't help crying as he spoke.

Su Juan's heart ached when she heard this, Su Mo couldn't help sighing, Su Ying looked back at the direction of the inner room, frowned and asked, "Uncle, what did the doctor say, can my sister be saved?"

Li Fujun was choked up and unable to speak, Anshi secretly wiped away tears and said,
"The only thing that can be saved is the thousand-year-old ginseng, but how can it be something ordinary people can afford? Even if we buy it for Min'er, it's just a sigh of relief for her, let her suffer!"

"How is sister Min'er doing now?" Su Ying wanted to go in to see the situation, but she was afraid that the going in and out would bring cold air into the room.

"Now I'm unconscious most of the time, and the doctor also said that time is running out, let... let... oh..."

Anshi couldn't continue, tears had already covered her face.

"Since you want ginseng, let's try it. I heard that people with congenital deficiencies like my sister can be completely cured with food supplements and careful maintenance!"

Hearing Su Ying say that Min'er's illness can be completely cured, Li Fujun and An Shi forgot to cry for a while, and their eyes lit up a little, but suddenly they thought of something, and the light in their eyes dimmed again.

"There are still 50 taels of silver at home. The doctor said that we can barely buy a hundred-year-old ginseng to make Min'er live a few more days. We are not afraid of spending money and wasting energy, but we are afraid that spending money will make Min'er feel bad, and she won't be able to survive." We found her a thousand-year-old ginseng to save her life, and let her suffer..."

Su Ying thought for a while and made up her mind, "Uncle and aunt, why don't you buy back the century-old ginseng first, I will figure out a way to get the thousand-year-old ginseng, and I can get it in two days at the fastest!"

Li Fujun and An looked up at her in a daze for a while, "Yingzi, that's a thousand-year-old ginseng, how do you get it?"

Su Juan and Su Mo also looked at her.

Su Ying thought for a while and found a reason and said, "I got the land deed of the grocery store from the Su family a while ago. I took it to the pawn shop first, and then redeemed it when I have money!"

"How did that happen? It was the painstaking effort of your father and mother. If you can't redeem it, then..."

Su Ying patted Li Fujun's hand and comforted her, "Uncle, don't worry about this. Isn't this grocery store ruined in the hands of the Su family? Besides, they are not doing well now, and I am afraid that they will sell it first." , now I can use it to treat my cousin, why not?"

"That... that... that's fine too, I'll do more woodwork and try to redeem that shop!"

After deliberation, Li Fujun bit the bullet and agreed.

Su Ying smiled, "That's right, I still need my uncle's help with some carpentry work, and I want to make some money with your skills!"

Li Fujun didn't know what work Su Ying had waiting for him, so he simply agreed, "Come to me for whatever you want to do in the future, and I will do it all for you!"

"Success! Uncle will go buy century-old ginseng to feed to my sister. I'll go to the pawn shop and have a look."

Su Ying got up, and Anshi grabbed her hand excitedly, "Thank you, auntie, don't worry, we will help you redeem this land deed!"

"Well! And auntie, we won't go back today, we three want to stay here for a few days, can you?"

Su Ying looked at An Shi with a smile.

An became more and more happy, "Yes, of course, don't talk about staying for a few days, you can just treat this as your own home. Brother Zhong is going to serve corvee, and Su Mo will live in his house today. I will give you and Juan'er tidy up one of the rooms!"

Su Ying nodded, and then thanked Su Juan and Su Mo.

Li Fujun took the silver and hurried out. Su Juan wanted to stay at home and help An's clean up the house. Su Mo was afraid that Su Ying would encounter danger on the road, so he suggested to go with her.

On the way, Su Mo expressed the doubts in his heart, "Second Sister? Have you really got the title deed for the grocery store?"

Ever since the second sister was stimulated by He Changchun, Su Mo always felt that her second sister had changed, and sometimes she was always secretive. If it was true, she could definitely tell them and let them know. Well, how could you hide it from him.

Su Ying knew that she couldn't hide her affairs from Su Juan and Su Mo. Sometimes they didn't ask because they didn't want to embarrass herself. They didn't know anything about it.

She paused, and quietly took out the laser pointer to show him, "I picked this up. Last time Mr. Qi's sculpture was made with it, so I hid it."

Su Mo looked up at her in shock, then lowered his head to touch the laser pointer, and murmured, "You are willing to give up such a precious thing?"

Su Ying smiled, there is nothing to be reluctant to part with, anyway, it is useless for her to hold it, it just happens to treat her cousin.

Uncles, aunts, and the others spent all their efforts on the cousin. If something happened to the cousin, how could their bodies be able to bear it?
Besides, it's just a pawn, and when she earns it, she will redeem it!

The two went to a pawn shop in the town, and just as Su Ying went in, she happened to find that Qi Mohan was also inside.

She was suddenly embarrassed, and quickly backed out.
