Fang Shi was silent for a long time, then shook his head slightly, and said, "It's not that he refuses to come back......

Ye He came in from outside with a washed pear, put it on the small table on the side, and said, "It's because the second brother is going to get married, but the mother is sick again, so won't this marriage be delayed?" The second brother is unhappy because of this......"

"What's the matter with my mother? My mother also wants to get better as soon as possible and handle the marriage for him? He's only eighteen years old now, what's the hurry! Liu Man'er said with some displeasure.

Seeing Liu Man'er's somewhat unhappy look, Fang defended Ye Qing and said: "It's me who delayed this child, other children are as old as him, the child can walk, this time he came back, and he kindly wanted to tell me about it, but I fell ill again." ”

"Mother, don't blame yourself, this has nothing to do with you, what's more, has he already made up his mind about this matter?" Liu Man'er asked.

"Yes, the second brother said that he was going to join the Tao family, and his mother was already sick, so it was even more uncomfortable to be angry with him like this!" Ye He said indignantly on the side.

"Money?" The corners of Liu Man'er's eyes jumped slightly, it was not that she was patriarchal, but in this era, it was a matter of being ridiculed, not only himself, but even the entire Ye family would be looked down upon, even in the previous life, everyone had an opinion on entering the family.

In this era, that is to sell a son, no, it is not more than selling a son, but the Tao family opened a shop in the town, and Ye Qing, as a runner, may not be able to withstand so many influences, but the Fang family will definitely be criticized.

It's no wonder that the Fang clan disagreed, Liu Man'er felt that she could understand, if it was her, she might have to think about it for a long time, a son I worked so hard to raise would become someone else's family, this is not equivalent to cutting a piece of meat from me!

"It's all my fault." I only heard Fang Shi say leisurely again, "It's that I can't figure it out for a while, but now I've figured it all out, you children, I don't want you to toss as you want, as long as you are happy and happy, I will be satisfied." ”

"Mother's ......" Hearing Fang's words, Liu Man'er was really moved, although she was just an ordinary peasant woman, but Fang's was really very open-minded, not to mention that this was ancient, that is, compared to some parents in the present world, she was much more enlightened.

couldn't help but hold Fang's hand tightly and said, "You are really the most generous and kind person I have ever met, don't worry about us in the future, take care of your illness, you know?" ”

"Hmm." Fang Shi nodded and said, "I know, I said I'm fine, I'm just weak, just take care of it, you come back all the way, it must be hard work, go and rest by yourself." ”

"Wait, I called the doctor, I have to listen to what the doctor has to say, so I can rest assured." Liu Man'er smiled at Fang's family, and chatted with her by the bed for a while, and after a while, the doctor came over.

After helping Fang's pulse, the doctor said: "It's not a big deal, it's just that the body is weak and needs to be cultivated well, I will open a house for you to recuperate, if possible, give her more bird's nest and ejiao things, or use ginseng and wolfberry to make wine, and drink a small glass every day, which is of great benefit to her body." ”

"Okay, this ginseng doesn't require a vintage, does it?" Liu Man'er asked cautiously.

"Not requires." The doctor shook his head.

Liu Man'er said: "Then please write me a prescription, and I will ask someone to grab the medicine." ”

Liu Man'er sent the doctor out as she spoke, and after letting the doctor prescribe a prescription for self-cultivation, she asked the doctor in detail, how to make this wine, and how to take the medicine? If you have bird's nest and ejiao, is it okay to take it every day? Is there anything to pay attention to in Fang's current situation? Can you help her go outside?

After a lot of verbosity, the doctor also replied one by one, "If you have this condition, bird's nest and ejiao are naturally good to take every day, as for the medicine, twice a day, a pair of medicine can be boiled twice, if there is a special person, you can often help the patient to go out for a walk, let her relax, which is good for her illness." ”

Liu Man'er kept it in her heart, and after thanking the doctor, she gave the consultation fee, which allowed Han Ping to send the doctor out.

This doctor is not Dr. Guo in the village, Dr. Guo is a barefoot doctor after all, and his medical skills are not very clever, Fang's disease is menacing, it can be regarded as a serious illness, Han Ping specially ran up and invited this Dr. Zhang to come.

This Dr. Zhang has been seeing a doctor for the Fang family during this time, but he is a frequent visitor to the Ye family, and he also knows a little about the situation of the Ye family, knowing that Ye Yuan is a general, and his youngest son has become a Xiucai again, so he dares to mention ginseng bird's nest and other things to Liu Man'er.

However, what he didn't know was that Ye Yuan's career had just started, and he said that he was a general, but Liu Man'er didn't see his salary, and some time ago, Ye Yuan confiscated the gifts given by the gentry, so Fang's medicine money had to be supported by Liu Man'er.

There used to be a restaurant, and the money for this medicine was okay, but now there is only one snack bar supporting it, and Liu Man'er is really worried that her money is a little insufficient.

She doesn't have much savings, and when she finished the New Year, she bought most of the land, and spent a lot of money during the New Year, and she left most of the rest to the Fang family, and she didn't know how much money was left here in the Fang family, but it shouldn't be much, after all, she was sick, and she must have spent a lot of money.

Sure enough, as soon as Liu Man'er entered, Fang said to Liu Man'er: "Child, what the doctor said just now, you must not take it to heart, those ginseng bird's nests or something, where can we people enjoy them, I will take this medicine, and I have spent a lot of money during this time." ”

Knowing that the money was all earned by Liu Man'er's hard work, Fang's family was also a little embarrassed, she also told Liu Man'er about this account together, and said: "Some time ago, you gave me a hundred taels, and almost all of them were used up for medical treatment, and now my prescription is one tael of silver, which is equivalent to my illness, and I have to burn one or two taels of silver every day, and I have dragged you down." ”

"Isn't it just a tael of silver?" Liu Man'er was very calm, and said: "The money is gone, we will earn it again, as long as your health improves, then all the hard work we have done is worth it." ”

"You really don't complain that your mother spent so much money on you?" Fang said in disbelief, she was sick in bed now, and Liu Man'er was in charge of the family, she was really worried that Liu Man'er would blame her.

Once upon a time in the village, there was an old lady who was sick in bed and could not work, and I heard that her daughter-in-law would not even let her eat, and she was abused in every way, but every time the chief and others just went to say it, it was useless, and once she said it, she pretended to be good to the old man once, and said that it was all a nonsense thing.

However, after the lieutenant and the others left, she still treated the old man badly as usual, who could say anything about her? After all, she is strong and strong, and she is the head of the family.

Now that she is sick, the eldest son is not at home, the second son is disobedient, and the younger child is underage, only relying on her young daughter-in-law, she feels a little uncomfortable when she thinks about it, and she cares about Liu Man'er's opinion.

"Of course I don't care, my mother, your body is the first thing, don't you have any psychological pressure to know? When you are better, I will help you go out for a walk and relax. Liu Man'er said and helped her lie down, and said, "Something calls me, there are guests outside, I have to go and say hello." ”

"Go ahead." Fang nodded.

Liu Man'er told Ye He and said, "He'er, do you take good care of your mother?" If there is anything to call me, if my mother needs something, you can tell me. ”

"Okay." Ye He nodded, and sat on the edge of Fang's bed, Liu Man'er stood up, walked out, and talked to the two soldiers before, after all, it was not good to leave others aside.

The two soldiers were going to leave overnight, Liu Man'er left them here to rest for the night, and the next day, they asked them to help bring letters to Ye Yuan, and prepared a lot of dry food for them, as well as the hardships along the way, so they let them leave.

Maybe it was because she saw Liu Man'er coming back, Fang's situation seemed better these days, and occasionally she was able to be helped up and walked around the house, Liu Man'er told Ye He to open the window often for ventilation.

But he planned to go to the county seat to take a look and inquire about the situation, why is this Yan family no longer good? I remember that when he left, Young Master Yan still looked like a gentle son, and there was no worry between his eyebrows.

It was as if everything changed in the blink of an eye.

However, before that, he still told Ye Feng to let him go to the school to study first, although Fang's illness could not delay his study.

Ye Feng has indeed been at home for a long time, when he was at school, there were still people playing with him, everyone studied together, and the interest was always higher, in this home, after staying for a long time, he was also a little bored, hearing Liu Man'er say this, he agreed to take advantage of the situation, and planned to go to the county seat with Liu Man'er when the time came.

In the past few days at home, Liu Man'er hasn't seen Ye Qingyou come home to see, which makes her a little angry, and she can't help but ask Ye Feng, "Feng'er, did your second brother come back a few days ago?" ”

"I came back a few times in the first few days, but I didn't come back to see my mother much during this time, but sometimes we went to town, and he brought us some money."

"I'm so angry, you go to the town and ask him to come back for a few days, when we go to the county seat, no one at home will take care of it, not to mention, my mother also wants him to come back." Liu Man'er said to Ye Feng.

Ye Feng sighed when he heard Liu Man'er say this, and lowered his head as if he was a little embarrassed.

Liu Man'er said, "But is there any difficulty? ”

"I told him last time, and he said that he felt ashamed of his mother and didn't have the face to come back." Ye Feng told Liu Man'er.

"He still knows that he doesn't have a face?" Liu Man'er sneered twice and said, "You just told him that I came back, and I asked him to come back!" ”

"Okay, then I'll call him tomorrow." Ye Feng said.

"You go now." Liu Man'er said: "Tomorrow we will go to the county seat, you call him back today, stay at home for two days, you should know the truth of filial piety first, your eldest brother has no way, I will replace him, but Ye Qing is so close to home, what is the matter of always being in someone else's house?" What's more, his mother and relatives have promised him. ”

"What did you say?" Hearing Liu Man'er's words, Ye Feng was surprised.

"My mother promised him to get rich!" Liu Man'er said: "You can also tell him this, it's up to him whether he comes back or not!" ”
