Chapter 51: Extraneous Branches
Old man Donald stood by the fence with his body bent, looking at the messy yard, and his granddaughter was covered with stolen goods, and he was angry.
He was digging earthworms in the field just now, and a few old guys actually quarreled in front of him.
Some say that Yang Mian's medical skills are more powerful, and others say that this little girl of the Tang family has no teacher and can come back to life.
Old Donald was angry for slander for a while, and secretly rejoiced because someone praised his granddaughter.
But it's not good for a female doll to cause so many troubles.
Just when the two sides disagreed and almost fought, a villager ran to the field and shouted at him: "Your Tang Dou'er vomited blood!" Rou girl went back to Tang's house to get the money! ”
He almost knocked over the basket containing the earthworms, and he didn't bother to wash it all over his body covered in mud, so he hurriedly ran back to Tang's house.
As soon as I got home, my family was already in turmoil!
After asking Tang Dou'er about his current situation, Old Man Tang said categorically: "Treatment, must be treated!" ”
Now all the villagers know that Tang and Rou went back to Tang's house to get money for Tang Dou'er's treatment, if he didn't give it, wouldn't he become a person who didn't care about his grandson's life or death?
Besides, today Dr. Yang came out with the elixir. It's going to have a different effect!
As soon as he spoke, there was a dead silence in the courtyard.
Tang Yunfu and Song Ming were both standing on the side, anxiously waiting for Mrs. Tang to speak.
Mrs. Tang held a feather duster and scolded the old man, spitting saliva: "You kill a thousand knives!" One hundred taels of silver, I think you're crazy old thing! One hundred taels of silver can give the eldest and second child a few concubines, how many chubby grandsons can be born? ”
Old man Tang said angrily: "Do you want me to watch my grandson die? ”
Mrs. Tang said: "He was not cured in the first place!" ”
Tang Yourou hurriedly shouted: "No, Doctor Yang said that he can cure it!" This elixir can bring the dead back to life, so I asked for a hundred taels of silver! Just a hundred taels of silver! Grandparents, you must save Dou'er! ”
Mrs. Tang glared at her: "You said it lightly, what do you mean by only using a hundred taels of silver?!" Why don't you go back to the broken house and sew your wedding dress? Get out! ”
As she spoke, she was about to continue beating Tang and Rou, and Tang and Rou hid behind Old Man Tang.
"Rou girl, don't make trouble, there is really no money at home!" Song Ming persuaded a few words, and seeing that Old Man Tang was speechless, he asked, "Dad, can you still get the silver here?" ”
Old man Tang lowered his head and did not answer.
The ten taels of silver he gave to Tang Yourou last time were the private money he had saved for a long time.
Although the jars of wine in the cellar can be sold for money, if they are left for a few years, they are even more valuable. These jars of wine were originally intended to be sold when Yushun got married, and used them as a dowry for the other party.
However, even if these wines were sold, they would not be able to make up the hundred taels.
The yard was quiet again.
Seeing that the time was ripe, Tang and Rou knelt on the ground, gently pulled the hem of Old Man Tang's clothes, and said, "Grandpa, can I say a word to you alone?" I have a way to get the money. ”
Mrs. Tang scolded: "What are you going to do?" ”
Old man Tang didn't let anyone else follow, took Tang and Rou to an inaccessible place behind the house, and looked at her with a frown: "Rou girl, what can you do?" Don't say those nonsense! ”
Tang Yourou knelt down for Old Man Tang, his eyes were firm: "Grandpa, Mrs. Huang, who told Guo Shao that she was a matchmaker, is at the entrance of the village, as long as I promise to marry him, I can give me a bride price of eighty taels of silver." I heard that the husband my grandmother found for me at the beginning was Guo Shao, but grandpa, you didn't agree. ”
Old man Tang took his hands, his back was a little stiff, and he scolded angrily: "Ridiculous! That Guo Shao opened a gambling house! If the champion has such a brother-in-law, when he becomes an official, he will wipe his ass every day for Guo Shao! Sooner or later, my grandson's career will be ruined! The old woman didn't know it wouldn't work, but I did! I would never agree with you marrying such a person! ”
Tang Yourou knelt on the ground, a smile unconsciously raised at the corner of his mouth, and he blocked it with his hand by wiping his tears: "Grandpa, as long as I am no longer from the Tang family, from now on, no matter who I marry, it has nothing to do with the Tang family." ”
"What do you say?! Are you going to split up? ”
"No, my young lady and I beg you to expel us from the family!"
“…………”
"No matter what method we use to earn money to treat Dou'er, it has nothing to do with the Tang family! What we do will not affect the people who read at home...... It's just ......" Tang and Rou kowtowed, crying with determination in their voices, "In the future, the young lady with Rou can no longer honor grandpa!" ”
Old Man Tang fell into deep thought.
……
Hour and moment.
Tang and Rou returned to the medical hall, and Dou'er and the young lady were still sitting at the door of the medical hall, surrounded by a wave of villagers.
These melon-eating villagers pointed at them, the morning wave had dispersed, and now there was a new wave, only a few who had been sitting at the door of the hospital for a long time had not left.
The fat aunt also came at some point, and when Tang and Rou came, they were telling the villagers about the misfortune of their three children.
Tang and Rou guessed that she would come, and they were not particularly surprised.
She walked around the crowd to see Douer and the young lady.
However, when she came to her younger siblings, she saw Uncle Ah Jin sitting next to Dou'er, holding Dou'er's hand, and feeding him honey water with a handful of snot and tears.
He saw Tang and Rou, the rugged man's face was full of tears, and he wailed with self-blame: "It's all my fault, I shouldn't have let him drink that thing." I knew that this surname Yang was a quack! ”
The young lady winked at Tang and Rou, and glanced at Uncle Ah Jin, obviously hoping that Tang and Rou would quickly find a way to take him away.
Tang Yourou hurriedly stepped forward, pulled Orion away, and comforted: "It's not to blame Uncle Jin, you just gave him the detoxification soup from the medical hall, you did nothing wrong!" ”
Seeing that the young lady kept staring at her, as if she had something to say, she said a few more greetings, came to her and squatted down, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?" ”
Tang Youniang put it on her ear and lowered her voice: "Dou'er wants to pee!" ”
Tang & Rou: "......"
She calculated everything, but she didn't expect that the fat aunt would bring honey water to Dou'er, and Uncle Ah Jin fed him so much because of guilt.
Because the honey water is sweet, this little guy didn't refuse, and drank all the crockpots in one gulp.
The play has begun, and the actor temporarily said that he wants to pee?
Tang Dou'er opened her eyes, nodded desperately, and even wanted to speak.
Tang Yourou hurriedly slapped him on the head to prevent him from moving, glanced left and right, and saw that the onlookers did not notice this strangeness, and hurriedly said, "Poor child! It's too hot this day, let's go back to the broken house! ”
Tang Youniang echoed: "Yes! ”
The two of them immediately got up and put on the little bean on their backs.
It's okay to go back to the house, after tossing for so long, the ash on my face has been wiped off. I have to go back and make up my makeup, and then make Tang Dou'er's face more gray.
"How did this go? Fat aunt can go find an umbrella! The fat aunt followed and said earnestly.
"Fat aunt, I don't know if grandpa is willing to give us silver, I'll take Dou'er back to the house first." Tang Yourou showed a sad look and said, "If he really can't be saved today, I want to take him back to the broken house and let him go decently!" ”
Her words caused a sigh of embarrassment among the onlookers. They accused Old Man Tang of being too slow and asked him to hurry up and take out the silver to treat his grandson.
The two finally got out, hugged Xiaodouding, and quickly ran back to the broken house.
