Chapter Ninety-Three: The Danger Is at Stake
Going to the town to see a doctor is bound to cost money, and in the face of human life, money is not worth anything at all. You can still earn money when you don't have money, but if your life is gone, what's the use of making more money?
She didn't want Guan Wen to die like this, she didn't want to be a widow just a few months after getting married! How would she live if another Kefu's hat was buttoned down? She can only twist her hair and go to the nunnery to be a sister-in-law!
It is not bad to live a lifetime in the pure land of Buddhism, but in this world, the nunnery is a wild place, and most of the young and beautiful nuns are prostitutes in secret. She didn't dare to think that if she really went to the nunnery, what would happen to her in the rest of her life.
Suicide? She doesn't want to, she has never had a good time in her previous life, and she wants to live a long life in this life no matter what.
But if she goes back to her parents' house, she sighs and blames herself for her father's sighs every day, and she really can't bear it.
And......
And she is not without a trace of affection for Guan Wen.
She wants him alive!
Li Xin first opened the money box that Guan Wen handed over to her, and there were still five taels of silver left in it. She took out all the money and put it on her body, and opened her dowry box again.
Although she scattered most of the money saved by the original owner to her mother's family, she still kept some for herself, and she added up to a few taels of silver. She didn't have time to count it now, she put it all together in a small cloth bag, and when she left after returning to the door, Liu forced a tael of silver into her, and put it all in.
It adds up to ten taels.
I don't know if I will need ginseng to hang my life, if so. The money may also be just a foundation.
She had to prepare for the worst.
Li Xin took a deep breath, wrapped the cloth and came out, Ah Mei was waiting for her worriedly at the door, and when she saw her come out, she hurriedly wiped her tears and shouted: "Sister-in-law, the second brother went to the village chief's house to borrow a carriage." ”
Li Xin nodded, ran to Guan Wen's side in a few steps, patted his face, and when he saw that there was no response, he pinched his middle again.
Guan Wen let out a "hmm", and Ah Xiu, who was pressing her bleeding place, hurriedly exclaimed: "Big brother! You're awake! ”
Guan Wen's consciousness is very vague. I can't say a whole sentence clearly. Li Xin's purpose was not to let him speak, but seeing that he was conscious, he hurriedly said: "Sister, hurry, go get another bowl of salted and sweetened water!" ”
"Whoa!"
Ah Mei thought that the water had an effect, so she hurriedly went to the stove to get a bowl, and Li Xin pinched Guan Wen's jaw and asked him to drink it.
Guan Wen was unconscious when he was unconscious. Feed him water, and he obediently drank it. Now that he's a little conscious, he's probably tasted it, and he's stunned.
Li Xin was anxious, and he couldn't pour it at this time, what if he coughed and increased the amount of bleeding?
After thinking about it, Li Xin took a sip of it himself, pinched Guan Wen's mouth and fed him in. One bite after another, slowly this bowl of water let Guan Wen drink it up.
The mother-in-law surrounding the courtyard all looked away in shame. Occasionally, he muttered quietly. The men also sighed and avoided it, thinking that maybe the young couple could get close at the last moment.
Guan Wu's efficiency was very fast, and after a while, he came in a carriage, and the driver Li Xin had never seen it, but he was an acquaintance after listening to Guan Wu's introduction - the only son of the village chief, Yinhuan's husband, Chunsheng.
"How is Brother Guan doing now?" Chunsheng's expression was very solemn. probably listened to Guan Wu's story, and also knew that Guan Wen was more auspicious.
Li Xin spoke quickly, "It's okay now, hurry up and send it to the town medical center." Brother-in-law Yinhuan, I'm sorry for you. ”
"Don't bother, get people into the car."
Chunsheng avoided it, Guan Wu carefully picked up Guan Wen, and when he saw Guan Wenhui, he immediately snorted and said happily: "Big brother, you're awake!" ”
Li Xin said: "Now is not the time to talk about this, second brother, you hold him in the car, so as not to be bumped by the car and the blood will flow faster." ”
Guan Wu understood, and comforted Li Xin and said: "Brother Chunsheng drives very smoothly, sister-in-law, don't worry." ”
"I'm in trouble."
The carriage was not spacious, and could only fit two people at most. After Guan Wu entered, he hugged Guan Wen's upper body, and Guan Wen's legs were supported outside. There is no way, the carriage was originally for women's families, and it is narrow enough to accommodate a big man.
Li Xin couldn't sit up, and he was afraid that there would be too many people to drag the speed, so he was not ambiguous, so he directly handed the small cloth bag containing the money to Guan Wu, "You take the money and go, pay attention to see if he is bleeding on the way, and if so, wipe it with cotton, and use a little strength to hold down the bleeding place." If I go to the hospital, no matter how I save people first, if the money is not enough, I will make it up, and I will follow me immediately. ”
Guan Wu choked up and nodded firmly.
Chunsheng sat on the side and said, "Second Brother Guan, sit tight." ”
With a "drive", the carriage began to gallop away in the direction of the avenue.
Li Xin was stunned and pinched his fist, and suddenly felt that his arms began to tremble.
Ah Xiu and Ah Mei supported her on the side, Ah Xiu said with tears: "Sister-in-law, the eldest brother still depends on you to take care of you, you can't collapse......"
Li Xin nodded, saw that he was covered with blood, and he didn't care about changing it, and ordered repeatedly: "Ah Xiu, you help me pack a few clothes; Sister, you stay at home with grandpa, don't tell grandpa about this. ”
Seeing that the sisters responded, Li Xincai said to the people around him: "Trouble everyone, if you see my father-in-law and fourth brother, tell them that something happened at home, and let them come back quickly." ”
As she was talking, Xing'er and Yinhuan rushed over panting, and their noses were sour when they saw such a scene as the Guan family.
Apricot is especially apricot, she is a widow herself, so she naturally understands the difficulties of widows. If Guan Wen really has a good ...... Holding Li Xin's hand, Xing'er said, "Don't panic, we're all here." ”
"Sister Xin'er, you have something to command."
Silver Ring also spoke out. She and Xing'er had made an appointment to have lunch together, but when they were walking to her house, they met her man and drove away, and after asking a few words, they hurriedly followed.
Li Xin thanked them for their kindness, and was waiting for Ah Xiu to come out in a daze, when Brother Yue and the uncle who knew the way also invited Meng Langzhong over.
Seeing such a scene of the Guan family, Meng Langzhong was also embarrassed. He has an old relationship with the Li family, and Li Xin is as old as his daughter, and when he saw her pale face and a lot of blood stains on her clothes, he sighed, and hurriedly came over and asked Li Xin: "Who are you in charge of?" ”
"I'm going to the town doctor." Ah Xiu simply packed up two sets of clothes and came out and replied on the side: "Uncle Lu said that he couldn't delay it, so he asked people to send it to the town first." ”
The sloppy barefoot doctor is a veterinarian, surnamed Lu, and people who have a headache and brain fever will also come to him for treatment. Hearing Ah Xiu say this, Veterinarian Lu nodded and said, "There is a bit of blood loss, and the conditions in the village are not good." The town's medical hall should be bigger, and there are all kinds of medicines. ”
Meng Langzhong nodded, and didn't blame Li Xin for anything, and sighed lightly: "Li family girl, then you should quickly pack up and go to the town medical hall." "If there really is a three-long and two-short......
Meng Langzhong would not say this, although most of the people present thought so.
Li Xin nodded, "Uncle Meng." I'm sorry, I'm sorry to make a trip for nothing. ”
"Girl, you're polite to me." Meng Langzhong sighed: "You can be regarded as the one I grew up watching, you and your eldest brother have to call me uncle, and if you say that, you will be born." ”
Li Xin sobbed and said, "Then Uncle Meng, I'll go to the hospital." ”
"Bh. Go ahead. Meng Langzhong looked at her lovingly. He asked hesitantly: "You say, do you want to tell your father and mother about this?" ”
"Uncle Xie Meng, don't use it." Li Xin shook his head, "They are all old, so it's not good for them to worry about it." ”
Meng Langzhong sighed lightly, "I know." ”
Brother Yue and the uncle were still waiting by the ox cart, and when they saw Li Xin coming out, Brother Yue said, "Sister-in-law." My bullock cart is still here, and I'll take you to town. ”
"Then I'm bothering you."
Li Xin was also not polite, his hands and feet were paralyzed and he barely climbed into the ox cart, Ah Xiu also followed, seeing Guan Zhicheng hesitating on the side, Ah Xiu was angry, "You are stunned to die there!" ”
Guan Zhicheng squirmed and said, "I have to wait for my father to come back......"
Li Xin didn't want to say anything to him, so he said directly to Brother Yue: "Let's go." ”
The dog who was named "Erhei" by Li Xin also jumped on the ox cart with Li Xin, squatted in front of Li Xin, and was very close to her. Ah Xiu wanted to drive it down, but was threatened by Erhei's grinning teeth. Li Xin waved his hand, "Let it follow." ”
The puppy still has a friendship with her who can't give it a bite to eat, but the reader who has read the Four Books and the Five Classics doesn't even have basic family affection.
Who is Guan Wen for?
Li Xin sighed and closed his eyes.
If Guan Wen's injuries can be saved, she must save Guan Wen even if she is cheeky and asks her mother for money. But before that, she has to show an attitude from the rest of the family!
Rushing to Anhetang in a hurry, Chunsheng was standing with his hands rubbed outside Anhetang, and saw Li Xin getting off the ox cart and hurriedly walked over and said, "Sister-in-law Guan." ”
"Brother-in-law Yinhuan, how is Awen?"
"The doctor is watching, don't worry."
Chunsheng pointed to the inside of the medical hall, Li Xin hurriedly stepped in, Guan Wu came out sweating profusely, and when he saw Li Xin, he immediately said, "Sister-in-law!" ”
"Where's your eldest brother?"
"The doctor said that the previous treatment was good, but there was more blood loss, and ginseng was needed to hang his life, so that he could deal with the next thing."
Guan Wu's eyes were slightly red, and Li Xin gritted his teeth: "Then buy ginseng!" ”
"But ......"
Guan Wu smiled bitterly, "The money my sister-in-law gave me is not enough......"
"Can the hospital take credit?"
Li Xin walked to the counter with a self-muttering and grabbed a middle-aged gentle uncle like a scribe, "My husband's life is on the verge and he needs ginseng to hang his life, can you save my husband first?" We must find a way to pay back the money! ”
The uncle was slightly stunned, and then said, "This ...... The price of ginseng is not low, and it is not for me to decide. ”
"So who can call the shots? I'm going to beg him! ”
The uncle shook his head, "Naturally, only the owner nodded and agreed." ”
These words are tantamount to blocking Li Xin's way.
She didn't cry either, and immediately said, "How much silver does that ginseng plant cost?" Can you take ten taels of silver ginseng to hang yourself first? I'll borrow the rest, and I'll give it as soon as I borrow it! ”
Ginseng is a valuable thing, and when Li Xin was treated, Li Houzhong spent more than one or two silver to buy a slightly thicker ginseng beard. Now I want to hang my life, and I want a whole ginseng, and ten taels of silver are naturally not enough.
The uncle was still shaking his head, Li Xin rushed to the front and said, "He can't wait, if there is no one to participate, there will be no one to participate!" I won't pay the bills, I will immediately raise money, as long as people live, the amount of money is not a problem! ”
When the hospital is open for business, it is common to encounter people who see a doctor but do not give money, and the uncle is also afraid of another trick.
A man in his fifties with eyes like a torch came out of the curtain, bowed his head and said a few words to the uncle, who nodded and said to Li Xin: "Then you go and raise money, I will use the ginseng for him first." But if you break your promise, An Hetang will not let you go. ”
Li Xin breathed a sigh of relief and asked again, "You guarantee that my husband is not in danger?" ”
The man who had just come out said unhappily: "If he dies, my Anhetang's signboard will be smashed." I said that there will be nothing and nothing will be fine, no need to doubt! ”
Li Xin was completely relieved, and she was almost paralyzed, but fortunately, Ah Xiu supported her in time, and cried with joy: "Sister-in-law, the eldest brother will be fine, will be fine!" ”
Li Xin nodded, wiped her tears and snot, "Ah Xiu, you and your second brother stay to take care of your eldest brother, and I'll go raise money." (To be continued)
