Zhan's mother wanted to tell her son about this, but before leaving, his husband and wife repeatedly told him not to divulge half of their affairs, even if it was to repay them for saving their lives. Therefore, Zhan's mother swallowed the words in her mouth again. I thought to myself, the benefactor and the husband and wife explained themselves so carefully, there must be a major hidden secret, and now I heard my son say that this matter of Dr. Du should be a kind-hearted benevolent doctor, if the doctor who saved himself has any relationship with them and lives in seclusion in the capital, it must be a last resort, and he can't open his mouth to talk nonsense about harming his benefactor. You can't tell how you've been healed, lest anyone else guess.

The seventh day of the appointment to return Feng's son Ah Da arrived, Ah Da's condition recovered quickly, because Ah Da could hear their voices, so these days Du Wenhao gave him a full set of night clothes, black scarves covered his head, and never spoke, taking care of him was also a guard he had never met, masked and rarely spoke.

After seven days of recuperation, Feng's frostbite has been cured, and Du Wenhao also cut off her necrotic little finger and two toes in due time. And use medicine to remove cold and dampness for him, so as not to fall into serious paralysis. She was also given a pair of crutches.

That night, Pang Yuqin and Du Wenhao went to bed, and after a while, Pang Yuqin snuggled in Du Wenhao's arms, wanting to stop talking.

Du Wenhao smiled: "Say whatever you want!" ”

"Husband, the Feng family is crippled with hands and feet, I'm afraid that he won't have the ability to earn money to support his family in the future, his son Ah Da is still young, and his body is thin, how can this mother and son live in the future?"

"You want to help them?"

"Well, can we send some silver to their mother and son, do a business or something. It's good to have a source of breadwinners. ”

"Okay, I agree," Du Wenhao agreed very happily, and said with a smile: "Actually, we don't have to pay for it, someone will help us pay for it!" ”

Pang Yuqin climbed up half of her naked body and said strangely: "Who?" ”

"Murderer!"

"Murderer?"

"Well, didn't the murderer drop gold nuggets to kill Ah Da? This nugget should be the money that the murderer paid to Ah Da. Let's keep the gold nuggets and convert them into the equivalent amount of silver, and that's fine! That nugget was worth a lot of money. It's enough for them to start a small business and make a living! ”

"That's right!" Pang Yuqin said happily: "This method is good!" Unalterable principle! However, did they tell them that the money was the money for the murderer's compensation? ”

"No, why do you want to give the murderer such a favor? If we don't take out the gold nugget by caesarean section, the victim will definitely die, and the gold nugget will be buried in the coffin with the victim. Therefore, this gold nugget is equivalent to us digging it out of the coffin and giving it to the victim, and then we will give it in the name of our donation. ”

"Hmmm! Reasonable! Then the gold nuggets obtained from Dong Zhukuai's son and Zhan's mother, will they also be converted into silver to compensate them? ”

"Dong Zhukuai's family is not very good, so he can exchange the silver and return it to them like this. As for Zhan's mother, forget it, their family has money, and they don't care about this bit of silver. If it is handed over to the Yamen, I am afraid that those corrupt officials will swallow it, so let's keep it, even if our hard work is good, we will help Zhan's mother treat her illness, but we don't want anything. There is also a lot of money for Dong Zhukuai's son, Ah Da and Feng's treatment, this cost has also cost a lot, I am afraid that there will be such things in the future, we can't do a loss-making deal. It's a god subsidy for us! ”

Pang Yuqin nodded: "Well, Qin'er listens to her husband!" ”

Early in the morning of the seventh day, Feng asked to go home and wait for his son. Du Wenhao asked her to wait for a while, and asked Pang Yuqin to bring a small box of silver and put it in front of her: "This silver is given to you, your hands and feet are disabled and you can no longer work." Use the money to do what you can. I've told my housekeeper that you've found a restaurant and it's doing well. Ah Da is still young, you still let him go to a private school to read some books, don't be blind, this child is very filial and sensible, and he will definitely have a future in the future. ”

Feng Shi looked at the box of silver in a daze, and the muddy tears rolled down one after another, and his knees were weak, and he was about to kneel. Pang Yuqin was prepared, and hurriedly supported her: "Don't do this!" My husband and wife have a good impression of Ah Da, so I hope to help you as much as we can. ”

Feng Shi was about to leave, when he suddenly remembered one thing, and said to Du Wenhao: "Engong, the last time you asked me about the day when I had a big stomach ache, did I hear anything abnormal, at that time, my wife and I were flustered, I didn't have time to think about it, but I have already taken your words to heart, I have thought about it for the past few days, there is something very strange, I slept that day, I heard someone coughing on the roof, the voice was very soft, I woke up, listened carefully, and heard a few more sounds, I am very strange, how can someone cough on the roof of my house...... ”

Du Wenhao's heart moved: "Someone coughed? Male or female? ”

"It's a woman, but the voice is a little old, by the way, and snoring and panting, and spitting, but the voice is very soft, but I was awake, it was not dawn at that time, there was nothing outside, and the old woman, my eyes and ears have always been very smart, who said anything bad about me, no matter how light I am, I can hear it...... Huh"

But all shrews who are good at arguing and scolding the street have good ears. Du Wenhao asked urgently, "When is this?" ”

"Hmm...... It should be the fifth watch, because I usually get up on the fifth watch, and I can pick up a lot of things that sell money in the morning, but it's a little strange, I didn't get up that day. ”

"Why?"

"I don't know, I wanted to get up after a little more confusion, but then I fell asleep, and I didn't wake up until Ah Da's stomach hurt so much that he shook me hard."

"Your son shook you before you woke up?"

"yes, I wondered, I've never slept like this, I can wake up with the slightest sound."

Du Wenhao pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice: "Think about it again, what did you feel when you woke up at that time?" ”

"I woke up and heard my son holding his stomach and screaming, so I hurriedly hugged my son and asked......"

"No, no, I'm asking you if there's anything wrong with you after you were woken up by your son, didn't you say that you never slept so dead?"

"Myself......?" Feng Shi lowered his head and thought for a while, then pointed behind his ear: "When I woke up, I felt a headache, and the place behind my ear was very sore, I remember that I rubbed it a few times in a daze, and then I was busy taking care of my son." ”

Du Wenhao's heart sank: "Let me see your ears!" ”

Feng turned his face sideways and asked Du Wenhao to check behind his ears, but he didn't find any bruises, but Feng hadn't taken a bath for a long time, and he couldn't see clearly with his unkempt face, so Du Wenhao asked the servant to bring a basin of water and let Feng wash his face, especially the back of his ears thoroughly.

After washing, Du Wenhao carefully checked Feng's ears again.

Suddenly, he let out a soft cry in surprise,—— at the base of Feng's ear, there was a small pinhole!

Du Wenhao looked carefully on the other side, but did not find a pinhole, he thought for a while, and said to Feng: "I'm sorry, I have something urgent to leave, thank you for telling me this, I have already told them to accompany you back." ”

After that, Du Wenhao hurriedly left in Feng's grateful.

Accompanied by the two old mothers sent by Du Wenhao, Feng returned home and waited for his son to come back.

That night, Du Wenhao gave a doctor's order, still the old way, blindfolded Ah Da, carried it to the vicinity of Feng's house in a sealed sedan chair, and then left quietly.

Ah Da tore off the black scarf and found that he had arrived next to the house, he was overjoyed, and slowly returned home holding his stomach.

Although Ah Da's footsteps were very small, Feng Shi, who was sitting in the courtyard, immediately heard his son's voice and hissed, "Ah Da! Is that you? "Limped to the door on crutches.

"Mother!" Ah Da entered the courtyard and saw Feng Shi on crutches at a glance, and was happy and surprised: "Mother, what's wrong with your feet?" ”

Feng Shi had already staggered over a few steps, grabbed his son's arm, and cried with joy: "Ah Da, you ......, doesn't your stomach hurt?" Are you cured? ”

"Well, okay, the doctor helped me to open my abdomen to heal my wounds, and I made a cut on my stomach, which has been cured. Mother, your legs ......"

"It's okay! It's okay! As long as I'm well! ”

Several enthusiastic next-door neighbors have been accompanying Feng Shi and waiting for his son to come back, seeing their mother and son reunited, their eyes were also moist, and a neighbor said: "Ah Da, your mother's foot was that day in order to plead with the strange doctor, kneeling in the courtyard of Dong Zhukuai's house for a whole day and night, and it was frozen, thanks to Dr. Wen of Fuyuntang to give your mother free treatment, although one foot and a few fingers were not saved, but this fate was saved." ”

Ah Da held Feng's mutilated hand, tears rolled down, and he knelt down with a grunt: "Mother......"

"Hurry up! Don't get on your knees, the ground is full of ice and snow, beware of hurting yourself! Feng Shi pulled his son up, and also cried: "Ah Da, we have met a nobleman, Dr. Wen of Fuyun Hall, if he hadn't instructed us to go to Daxiangguo Temple to find a strange doctor, how could my son be saved?" This doctor Wen is really a benevolent doctor, not only saved my mother's life, helped my mother heal her injuries, but also gave our mother a lot of money, and today sent a housekeeper to help us find and buy a restaurant with a good port and good business, and also helped us invite two chefs with particularly good skills, and our mother and mother will have to rely on in the future. Dr. Wen is a great benefactor of our family, remembering that my mother treated him like that before, my mother was so ashamed that she wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into. ”

"Well, I said long ago that they are good people. I must think of thanking Dr. Wen for them. ”

"My mother has thought about it, my mother sees that their pharmacy business is not good, let's run this restaurant in the future, there are many customers from the south to the north, let's give him more Fuyuntang to promote his reputation and boast of their kindness!"

"Well, that's a good idea, mother! Let's go inside and talk. ”

Feng said: "Silly boy, didn't you say it, the benefactor helped us buy a restaurant with a small house, let's live there in the future, go, go home!" ”
