Koi Fleeing Famine: I Picked Up a Chief Assistant as a Husband

Chapter 5
"Infectious diseases usually cause rashes or erythema, and the skin of the body will rot, or it may be a cough due to tuberculosis, but his complexion is not only weak and pale, but he is still healthy. He can recover." Lu Nanzhi looked at Father Lu and said, "Father, why don't we take him in."

As soon as the words came out, Third Aunt Lu immediately objected: "Lu Nanzhi! Are you crazy! Take him in? This is a living person! And he is sick! We have no food to eat! You still want to take him in! You Are you trying to drag us down to death!"

"That's right! You little girl doesn't know the dangers of the world! You don't want those teeth, just throw them away, and you still want to take them in! Do you want to be a Bodhisattva? If you want to be a Bodhisattva, go to the temple!" Lu San Uncle also accused.

"Third Uncle, Third Aunt, if I take him in, I'll squeeze him out of our family's rations to feed him, and he's not terminally ill. If he is fed, there will be more helpers and labor on the road." Lu Nanzhi said.

"That's what you said. If you want to save people, save them! You can only feed him with the food of the three of you! You can't eat our rations!" Third Aunt Lu said warily.

"Nanzhi, do you really want to keep him?" Father Lu looked at Lu Nanzhi and asked again.

Lu Nanzhi nodded and said affirmatively, "I want to keep him."

"Then I'll go and tell those people, if they really don't want him, then let's keep him." Father Lu said in a deep voice.

Lu Nanzhi took out two rice dumplings and boiled them into a paste in the pot, intending to feed them to the boy.

Here, Father Lu found Ren Yazi, who was also stationed to rest, and asked, "Brother, someone fell off your carriage."

Ren Yazi, the leader, sneered and said, "Since he fell down by himself, that's his fate. We don't want it anymore. If you think it's in the way, throw it down the mountain."

Only then did Father Lu say: "Since you don't want it, we'll take it back."

This man Yazi thought that Lu's father wanted them to bring the sick child back, but he didn't expect him to keep it.

Ren Yazi's face was filled with joy immediately, and he said, "Are you interested? That's easy to say! I bought this sick seedling for a tael of silver. If you want it, you can bring it for a tael of silver."

Unexpectedly, people in this barren mountain and wild mountain could still encounter a victim.

However, Father Lu sneered, and said, "I just feel sorry for a life, and I just give him a sip of rice soup to drink. If I want money, then I can only stand by and watch. There is no rice for the pot these days. And spare money to buy people."

Father Lu said, turned around and left.

Seeing Father Lu gone, Ren Yazi felt that it was indeed a sin for him to throw him away and let him fend for himself. Since someone is willing to raise him, he should just give it to him.

"It's fine if you don't have money, you can raise it if you want! Anyway, you can't support it! I thought he had a good face and bought it back, but who knew he was a sick child, and he had to eat ginseng to heal! A ginseng is worth a few days. Twelve taels, who can afford it!" Ren Yazi muttered.

Father Lu didn't answer any more. Since they agreed to give it to him, they just stayed.

Lu Nanzhi cooked rice porridge, and asked Lu's mother to help, and fed a small bowl.

The boy gained some strength and opened his eyes slightly.

In the shadowy flames, he could only vaguely see Lu Nanzhi's face.

He wanted to try to see clearly, but the vitality of his body was too weak, and his eyelids seemed to weigh a thousand catties, and he couldn't open them no matter what.

Although I couldn't open my eyelids, I could hear a clear voice beside my ears: "Father, this won't work. The rice porridge is not nutritious and can't support his vitality. Otherwise, let's go over there while it's still dark." Let Linzi see if there are any wild animals? If he can get some meat for him to drink some broth, maybe it will be better."

"I have the same idea. I'll just go. What can you, a girl, do to help?" Father Lu said.

However, Lu Nanzhi still stood up and said, "I'm lucky, maybe if I follow you there, we can catch the prey."

As soon as Lu Nanzhi said this, Grandma Lu thought of what the doctor said, saying that if she survives a catastrophe, she will have future blessings.

And rolling down such a high ravine, she was unscathed, so it can be seen that she is blessed. Thinking of this, Grandma Lu's eyes couldn't help but shine.
