Fast time travel: He made up for his mistakes in the plane

Chapter 203 No. 4 Sugar Cane [-]
Qu Mantian woke up from the cold.

He was lying on the ground, half of his body was wet. It had rained last night, and there was a chill in the air. The wooden windows were wide open, and the yard was silent. Only small sounds came from the kitchen.

I have a splitting headache and feel weak all over.

He finally stood up holding on to the wall, but his feet gave way and he almost fell to the ground again.

How could he be on the ground?

Is it a dream?
What about Wang?
Qu Mantian pressed his painful temples, feeling vaguely anxious that he had had a very terrifying dream last night.

Nightmare, dreaming about ghosts!
That short-lived ghost Qu Zhe actually asked him to turn himself in, don't even think about it, he is dead, he should accept his fate, what are you doing, he can't survive!

It's better to lie flat.

He touched his forehead, it was hot, and his heart tightened, it was cold.

Being infected with wind and cold these days is equivalent to resigning yourself to fate. It is wishful thinking to survive without taking medicine.

"Old woman! Old woman!"

He held on to the wall and walked out in a panic.

The eldest daughter-in-law was cooking in the kitchen and came out with a wooden shovel, "Dad, what's wrong?"

"Where's your mother?"

"Mom? I, I haven't seen you..." Her face was full of confusion, "Is mom up?"

When she came out, her parents-in-law's door was still closed tightly, and she didn't hear any other sounds.

Not only that, but my grandparents, who usually get up early, were still silent at this time.

Strange.

Qu Mantian thought Wang had gone out for a walk, so he waved his hand and said, "I have a headache. Go and get a doctor for me."

The eldest daughter-in-law was stunned for a moment, "I still have to cook."

"Food..." Others are going to die, what else can they do to cook? Do you want to eat for nothing? He waved his hand and said, "Go and call me."

After giving the instructions, he asked Daya to pour him a glass of water.

After just saying a few words, my throat was so dry that it was smoking and painful. It seemed that the cold was well-deserved.

Qu Da was still sleepy when he came over, rubbing his eyes, "Dad, what's wrong with you?"

Qu Mantian coughed twice and said sadly, "I caught a cold. Go and fetch Dr. Tian over."

Qu Da didn't leave.

Qu Mantian: "...Didn't you hear? Why are you still here? Do you want to wait until the employer dies of illness before you will be happy?"

"Dad, that... money..." Qu Da was also aggrieved.

His parents were still living together, and all the money in the family was in the hands of his parents. His family didn't even have a copper.

"Debt collection, what did labor and management do in their previous lives to pay you unfilial sons..." He returned to the room cursingly, opened the money box, and planned to count a few copper coins.

There is no doctor in the village.

I'm going to town to invite you.

But it takes more than an hour to get from the town, which delays a lot of things, so the doctor charges a few copper coins for the trip to avoid missing out.

Qu Da squatted in front of the basin and washed his face, and then heard a roar coming from the room.

Qu Mantian rushed out with a gloomy expression while holding the wooden box, "Which of you has taken the money from home? Take it out!"

Qu Da: “…”

silver?

Do we still have this precious gold thing at home?

Soon, the entire family was dug out of their beds and lined up one by one to stand in the main room.

When an already poor family loses money, it is like the sky is falling.

It's better now, I've woken up from my drowsiness.

"How, how?"

"Dad, how much money was lost?"

"It can't be our second wife, we don't even know where our parents hide their money!"

"Where's mother? Didn't she secretly take it away to support her mother's family?"

"Dad, did you remember wrongly that the silver was not put in the box at all, or did mother hide it separately?"

...

So the whole family started digging through boxes and cabinets, even the chicken coop in the backyard.

Turned lonely.

The second child's family was so tired that she didn't dare to quarrel with her father-in-law. She just poked the man's arm and said in a low voice, "The third child has been out for several days. He said he was going to Zhou's house for a drink. Who knows what happened? Those gangsters around him are like that at home, how can they afford to treat him to drinks and dinner every day?" Ha.

They are all fools.

Qu Er is not willing to suffer losses.

In the past, the eldest brother was more valued by his father. After all, he was the eldest son. This was normal.Ever since he had the only grandson of the Qu family, and the eldest brother's family only had three girls, his father had become much more tolerant of him.

Now my family has lost money...

That's his son's money!
He immediately sneered and said, "We have rummaged through the house, and we don't even have a single coin. Dad, you might as well ask the third brother if he took it away."

"Impossible! It can't be Ah Fu!" Qu Mantian didn't even want to deny it.

"What about others? The money at home is gone, and he happens to be not here either." Anyway, Qu Er didn't believe it.

"I checked last night before going to bed. Yao Zai hasn't been back for a few days. No one can be him!"

When Qu Er heard his categorical denial, he became even more convinced of his suspicion, "He hasn't been back for a few days. Where is he eating and drinking? Don't you want money?"

Qu Mantian: “…”

My head hurts even more.

When a person is not feeling well, he has little patience. He is not a patient person to begin with.

"I told you, the money was stolen last night!"

"When is it not dad who is the one who gets stolen? You have the final say!"

Qu Mantian: Very speechless.

So this matter can’t be settled, right?

"Where's your mother?"

I haven't seen Wang since I woke up in the morning. Even if it was a visit, he should have been back long ago.

All shook their heads.

"Da Ya, go and look for her in the village."

So Da Ya led Er Ya and San Ya and ran away.

Qu Da asked cautiously: "Dad, do you still want a doctor?"

Qu Mantian felt the increasing pain in his head and itchy throat. He cleared his throat and gritted his teeth, "Please!"

His voice was extremely hoarse.

If you don’t take the medicine, the village will have to come to eat.

"That silver..."

Qu Mantian endured his headache and went back to the house, took out three coins and said, "Go."

This is his private home.

Before leaving, he repeatedly told his eldest son, "Kneel on the ground and beg the doctor to take pity on you and save some money for the family."

Qu Da: "...Yes."

Soon the three girls came back and said that no one was found in the village.

"We went to several aunts' houses where Nai often goes, and they all said that Nai didn't go there today, and there wasn't anything in the fields either."

Then...where did Wang go?

The eldest daughter-in-law said weakly, "My uncle came here not long ago and told me that my cousin was planning to get married and that the house at home should be repaired..."

Then I was pushed back by my father-in-law, and they broke up unhappy.

Qu Mantian's eyes flashed, "Second brother, go to your uncle's house and bring your mother back!"

Qu Er: "I'll go right away."

Leave in a hurry.

Run fast.

Can you hurry up?

If you were a little slow, the money that belonged to their second wife and only his son would be cheaper than the uncle's family.

The second daughter-in-law bit her lip and said, "Dad, I'll go pick up your mother too." She chased after Qu Mantian without waiting for his consent.

The yard was empty.

Also quieted down.

Only then did Qu Mantian feel exhausted.

Where did he go with so much money, more than a dozen taels of silver, and hundreds of copper coins?
