peasant girl wedding

Chapter 19
The spring breeze in March blew across the narrow campus, lifting Tong Zhier's bangs that covered her eyes, but it also allowed Lin Shi to see the fleeting light in her eyes.

Lin thought to herself: Not good.She glared at Mr. Hu with a bit of resentment, and thought, Mrs. Hu said something else is not good, so she just wanted to say this.Tong Zhi'er is a weird girl who is also very smart, if she sees something, their plans for today will come to naught.

Hu was very aggrieved by the stare.

What the fourth aunt said may be nothing to Lin, but to her, her husband doesn't know how to call a doctor when he is sick. If this gets to the ears of old man Tong and old lady Tong, she should also pack up and go back to her mother's house up.

Lin's eyes were not kind, which made Hu very uneasy, his face was a little ugly, and in Fang Cuiwei's view, it was even more pity.

Inside the room, Tong Zhiming looked at Tong Zhaojin lying on the bed in amazement, and thought to himself that his acting really resembled it, if he hadn't known the news earlier, he might have mistaken it for the truth.Taking a peek at Tong Zhixin next to him, he found that he was horrified and speechless, Tong Zhiming was overjoyed, but put on a miserable look.

"Zhaojin, don't scare dad..." Tong Zhiming leaned halfway beside the bed, holding Tong Zhaojin's trembling hand and screaming.

"Brother, don't worry, I'll invite the best doctor in the county right away."

With that said, Tong Zhixin hurried out of the courtyard, the fast Tong Zhi'er only caught the corner of his clothes where he disappeared.

In the yard, Mrs. Lin kept paying attention to Tong Zhi'er, and found that she had no plans to do anything, so she couldn't help thinking that she was worrying too much.He also felt that Tong Zhiming was the only one in the room, which was not good, so he entered the room.

After Mrs. Lin left, Tong Zhi'er walked up to Fang Cuiwei and remained silent.

When Hu Shi told Fang Cuiwei that she had invited a doctor for Tong Zhaojin, Tong Zhi'er knew something was wrong.Still, she wasn't too sure.

"Mom, let's go in and have a look at Big Brother."

Shaking Fang Cuiwei's wrist, Tong Zhi'er said in a low voice.

At this time, Mrs. Hu had stopped crying, and immediately said: "Fourth Aunt, Zhi'er, you should go inside and have a look."

After entering the room, Tong Zhi'er took advantage of her size and rushed to Tong Zhaojin's hospital bed, thinking about it.

really----

Tong Zhaojin is pretending to be sick.

This is not to say that Tong Zhaojin's acting skills are clumsy, Tong Zhi'er's eyes are like a magic mirror, and Tong Zhaojin's disguise can be seen at a glance.On the contrary, it is not an exaggeration to say that Tong Zhaojin's expression and face at the moment are superb.

What made Tong Zhi'er make a judgment was that Tong Zhaojin's body smelled of sweat but not a trace of medicine.

In ancient times, when one was sick, one had to suffer, or one had to see a doctor to take traditional Chinese medicine.The smell of Chinese medicine is strong, after taking it for three or four days, the body will be contaminated with the smell of Chinese medicine, even if it is stopped for a few days, it will not disappear immediately.

But on Tong Zhaojin's body, Tong Zhi'er could not smell the slightest smell of traditional Chinese medicine.

Glancing at Mrs. Hu and Mrs. Lin, Tong Zhi'er thought to herself, whether it's because the auntie forgot to complete the acting, or if she forgot to remind her when playing with the sister-in-law.

Seeing what Tong Zhi'er was thinking about, Lin opened her mouth and said, "Zhi'er..."

"Auntie, elder brother is really pitiful." Tong Zhi'er blinked her eyes, but a tear fell from her eyes.

Lin's doubts disappeared, only because Tong Zhi'er had never seen Tong Zhaojin so "seriously ill" and was frightened for a while.

Tong Zhixin walked very quickly, and after a while, he dragged a doctor in.

Everyone gave way to the doctor, and Tong Zhi'er walked up to Tong Zhixin, and found that there was a layer of secret sweat on his forehead, and looking at him, the lapel of the coarse cloth coat was wet a little.Hearing his unstoppable panting, Tong Zhi'er also knew how anxious Tong Zhixin was when he asked for a doctor.

Such a kind father, how dare they cheat!
Tong Zhi'er bit her lower lip.

Beside the bed, the doctor took Tong Zhaojin's pulse, but his eyes quickly met with the eldest aunt Lin's, and then moved away.He stroked his long beard on his chin, pondered for a moment, and slowly put Tong Zhaojin's hand under the quilt.

"Doctor, how is my eldest nephew?" The doctor's dignified appearance made Tong Zhixin very nervous.

"Alas..." The doctor shook his head, "His illness can be cured, but, in your yard, it's better to deal with him as soon as possible, so as not to suffer."

When he said this, the old doctor looked at the small and somewhat run-down courtyard, his meaning was very obvious.That is to say, if your family is so poor, if you have any money for medical treatment, you can prepare for the funeral early.

"This……"

"son……"

"Da Lang's father..."

Tong Zhiming, Lin Shi and Hu Shi looked at Tong Zhaojin on the bed with split eyes.

"Doctor, just ask how much money you want."

The doctor looked at Tong Zhixin suspiciously, obviously not believing that he could get the money.At this time, Mrs. Lin walked up a few steps and said: "Doctor, my fourth brother has made a big deal. He has money. If he has money, you can just treat my son, and you can pay as much money as you want."

"Okay, I don't care about the consultation fee. However, his illness is serious. If he doesn't use the best medicinal materials, he may treat the symptoms but not the root cause, and he will relapse in the future. The medicinal materials in my shop are all from the extreme cold. According to the prescription I wrote, the high-quality goods shipped from the land, if calculated without eight taels of silver, I am afraid that it will not be a problem."

Eight taels!

Tong Zhi'er's eyes widened, excluding the tuition fees of Ah Fu and Mrs. Tong's beloved son Tong Zhiyi, as well as the things they bought before, Tong Zhixin only had about eight taels in hand.

The eldest aunt is going to steal all the money in their hands!

They really dared to speak.

Eight taels!

Tong Zhixin and Fang Cuiwei also couldn't believe it, and they quickly exchanged a look.

Seeing this, Mrs. Lin quickly pinched herself severely, and immediately Tong Zhi'er saw her rushing towards Fang Cuiwei with tears in her eyes.

"Fourth sister-in-law, you have to pity me. I only have a son named Zhaojin. Don't let me send a white-haired man to a black-haired man. My sister-in-law knew that it was not good before, so she tripped up my mother and asked her to make things difficult for you. My sister-in-law is here to give If you don’t pay, you can save my Zhaojin.”

Fang Cuiwei was in a dilemma and didn't know what to do, but Mrs. Hu thumped and knelt heavily on the ground.

She didn't say anything, just looked at Tong Zhixin and Fang Cuiwei with pitiful eyes.

Tong Zhiming also came over at this time, grabbed Tong Zhixin's arm, and cried with tears in his eyes: "Fourth brother, the eldest brother only has such a son. If he can't be cured, I will admit it. But the doctor said, As long as you use good medicinal materials to attract gold, the disease can be cured. The eldest brother also knows that it is not easy for you to earn a few silver. If you are greedy in the early morning, the fourth sister and a few children will also suffer. However, if the silver is gone, you can earn more. , but if the person is gone, they will never come back..."
