Chapter 19

Without waiting for Mrs. Zhou to speak, Lin Guyu revealed a sad face, covered her face with her sleeves, and said in a crying voice, "Does mother-in-law think that I shouldn't give money to my husband to see a doctor?"

Lin Guyu pretended to wipe away his tears, and obediently stood there with his head bowed like a child who did something wrong, with a sarcasm at the corner of his mouth where no one else could see.

"You're talking nonsense," Fang pointed at Lin Guyu's nose, and said angrily, "It's been more than a month, and the doctor in the town comes here every other day. Everyone knows that the doctor's visit fee is not low, so Is a little silver enough?"

Lin Guyu looked at Fang with red eyes, and pressed his/lips tightly, revealing a streak of paleness.

What Fang said is correct, the consultation fee is not low, not to mention that when you come to the countryside, the doctor will definitely charge more money. These days, where is there any doctor who sees a doctor for free?

Everyone started to murmur.

"I paid an IOU, this..." Lin Guyu opened her eyes and said nonsense, except for the taels that were forced into Lu Ziyu, she only had three taels of silver in her hand.

"Mother," Chi Hang interrupted Lin Guyu, lying on the bed, looking sideways at Mrs. Zhou, with a low voice, "We still owe Doctor Lu ten taels of silver."

Lin Guyu hadn't figured out what to say next, but when he heard Chi Hang say that, he just lowered his head.

Chi Hang started to lie, which shows that he really doesn't want to join the family.

Mrs. Fang summed it up. For the ten taels of silver, even if the third brother recovers and hunts without eating or drinking, it will take more than a year. What's more, he doesn't know when he will recover from his current state. Still have to spend money.

This man, he can't be sick if he has anything, and he can't be without money if he has everything.

Maybe Chi Hang will spend more money in the later stage, and the gains will not be worth the losses.

What's more, the fourth brother has to spend money to study, but that is still a good start. According to the father and son of the fourth brother, the fourth brother is estimated to be admitted to the scholar.

Xiucai.

That's the official.

At that time, the family will not have to pay taxes for farming, so who can look down on their family?

For so many years, even if the family can't eat or drink, they have to support Chi Ye to study, but when Chi Ye is famous, they will become the ladies and wives of those officials one by one.

Fang's heart turned a thousand times, and after thinking about it, seeing the third brother's state, if the family insisted on dragging their whole family down.

"Mother." Mrs. Fang has always been a talkative person, so she leaned into Mrs. Zhou's ear and said softly, "Why don't we get together as a family, the third brother seems very unwilling."

Zhou's eyes fell on Chi Hang's body, her amber eyes trembled slightly, and her lips/lips quivered slightly.

Zhou's wanting to have a family is not only because he wants Chi Hang to make more money in the future, but also because of that woman, but the more reason is that her old man liked being together as a family back then.

Chi Nan has been dead for so long, but fortunately the children are obedient, and the family has always been united.

But since Chi Hang's accident, on the surface the eldest/second helped to take care of Chi Hang, but they were still very reluctant in their hearts, and they muttered outside, all about not letting Chi Hang go home.

On the surface, the Zhou family manages the entire Zhou family, but in fact, she has no power at all, and the right to speak is all on the two old families and the old/second family.

The boss is an honest person, but the eldest daughter-in-law is not. No matter what happens, as long as the eldest daughter-in-law yells, the boss will obediently do it.

The old/second and the old/second daughter-in-law are as smart as monkeys, and they often fan the flames from the sidelines. As long as the eldest daughter-in-law thinks it is right, the two families are on the same line.

Chi Ye has been studying for so many years. Although he will help out when he has time, there is not much he can do. Instead, he asks his family members to pay for him to study. Under normal circumstances, Chi Ye will not take care of his family. of these things.

Zhou sighed helplessly, looked at Chi Hang who was lying on the bed, and said what was in his heart, the palms and backs of his hands were full of flesh.

If she knew that Chi Hang's illness would recover at that time, she would never have talked about the separation.

"Forget it," Zhou looked at Chi Hang lying on the bed with distress, and said softly, "Since I still owe the doctor ten taels of silver, I will give you five taels of silver later."

Listening to Zhou's words, Mrs. Fang stood aside with a dark face.

"Mother." Chi Hang's face panicked.

"The family doesn't have much money," Zhou sighed helplessly, "recover well."

Mrs. Fang tugged at Mrs. Zhou's sleeve and winked.

"If there is something wrong with your eyes, go to the doctor and ask me to do something!" Mrs. Zhou looked at Mrs. Fang displeased, pushed Mrs. Fang aside, and respectfully helped Grandpa Chi up.

Grandpa Chi is the pillar of the Chi family, and the Zhou family would rather offend the uncle's family than disobey Grandpa Chi's words.

Grandpa Chi got up slowly, did not go out directly, walked to Chi Hang's bed, looked at Chi Hang's face, and said worriedly, "Take good care of yourself."

Chi Hang felt a little uncomfortable. If he had known earlier, he would not have said that he owed Dr. Lu so much money. He just said it casually, but he didn't expect Zhou to send him so much money.

Waiting for the group of people to leave, Wang Xiaoqian walked to Lin Guyu's side with a smile, "Sister-in-law three, when I heard that so many people came to your house, I was worried that you would not be able to speak to them, but now it seems that everything is fine. "

For Wang Xiaoqian's actions, Lin Guyu was very grateful, and felt that Wang Xiaoqian was a straightforward person, and it was best to get along with such a person, "Thank you, if you hadn't helped me in the first place, I wouldn't have dared to say it."

After seeing off Wang Xiaoqian, Lin Guyu watched Dousha sitting on the bed happily playing with the pillows, and walked slowly to Chi Hang's bed.

"If my mother-in-law brings you money later, why don't I just push it away?" Every time Lin Guyu spent money, he would tell Chi Hang clearly that Chi Hang knew how much money the family had.

Chi Hang frowned slightly, and glanced at Lin Guyu, his eyes fell on the bean paste on the bed, he gritted his teeth, "Why don't you take it, I'll pay it back when I earn money next year."

He is a good hunter, making money easier than others.

"you"

"The silver in your hand won't last long." Chi Hang stretched out his hand to hold Lin Guyu's hand, looking at Lin Guyu quietly with his dark eyes, "We need money."

The hand held by him felt a little strange. When Lin Guyu reached out to push Chi Hang's hand away, Chi Hang himself let go.

"That's fine." Lin Guyu's ears were inexplicably hot, and he turned his head to the side, "I'm going to collect herbs during this time, and I'll see if I can buy some good things to nourish your body."

"That," Chi Hang watched Lin Guyu's turning around, reached out and grabbed Lin Guyu's hand, "Second sister-in-law, she"

Chi Hang didn't speak, and saw that Lin Guyu had already shaken off his hand, and looked at him with some wariness, just like when he met animals on the mountain, those animals also looked at him this way.

Lin Guyu pursed his lips slightly, as if he had come to his senses, with a steady voice, "What's wrong?"

"Don't take what the second sister-in-law said to you." Chi Hang said hesitantly, seeing Lin Guyu's strange expression, he frowned slightly, "Is there something wrong with you?"

"No." Lin Guyu shook his head hastily.

She was still not used to being touched by strangers.

She is a doctor, and when she sees a patient, she has no objection to touching others.

only.

Without her knowing, if someone touches her, her first reaction is to push away.

If you can't push it away, you may just drop it with a heavy hand.

Obviously, there is no difference between her actively touching others and others actively touching her, but she doesn't feel that way in her heart.

After Lin Guyu finished speaking, he turned and walked towards Dou Sha.

The eldest daughter-in-law, Song Shi, who came to give the money, put the money bag into Lin Guyu's hands with a cold face, and left without saying a word.

Lin Guyu didn't care what Song's expression was, and went back to the room on his own, collected the money, and then began to prepare dinner.

Originally, he fell asleep happily at noon, but who knew that such an annoying thing happened in the afternoon.

But what made Lin Guyu happy was that Mrs. Zhou sent money over. After all, it was convenient to do anything with more money.

half a month later.

Private school in the town.

"Chi Ye, are you uncomfortable? I think your face is ugly." Wu Lei looked at Chi Ye worriedly.

He had a headache and felt uncomfortable all over his body. He didn't even have the strength to hold the chopsticks. Chi Ye barely showed a smiling face, "It's okay."

Wu Lei didn't quite believe Chi Ye's words, so he raised his hand and touched Chi Ye's forehead, brows tightened, "You have a fever, you should go back to rest after dinner."

He has no appetite, but Chiye still eats slowly, because he knows that if he doesn't eat, he will recover more slowly.

After eating, Chiye went back to his room and lay down alone.

I fell asleep in a daze, and seemed to hear something in the middle of the night, but it was very vague and I couldn't hear anything clearly.

Mrs. Zhou was weaving a dustpan in the yard, when she suddenly heard the movement of a carriage outside, she was startled, could it be they came?
Busily putting down the things in her hands, Mrs. Zhou hurriedly walked outside, only to see the carriage stopped at the door.

Sure enough, they came.

The curtain of the car was lifted, and a white-faced scholar came out from inside, "Hello, Auntie!"

Zhou was stunned, how could it be a man?

"Brother Chi Ye was unwell last night, we hurriedly found a doctor to see..."

Before Wu Lei could say anything, he saw the woman climb into the car in a panic.

Wu Lei turned sideways quickly, his voice paused, "The doctor said he had smallpox!"

When Zhou was about to touch Chiye again, his hands stopped in the air, his face turned blue, and he looked at Wu Lei in a panic.

Only then did Zhou realize that Wu Lei's whole body was tightly wrapped, and he forgot to breathe for a moment because of his nervousness.

"God, smallpox?" Although Zhou is only a woman, she still knows about smallpox, her voice trembling, she asked in disbelief.

Wu Lei glanced sadly at Chi Ye in the car, and nodded heavily.
