Chapter 30 Sick and cured
It was getting late, and the medicine outside was almost done, and the leopard took Li and Huzi back home with a medicine that Old Man An gave him that he could follow. Li looked at his mother-in-law with blank eyes, and slowly swallowed the medicine given by the miracle doctor, and then the old lady closed her eyes and leaned on the quilt relaxed!
"How is it?" Huzi was the first to can't help but didn't dare to ask out loud, so he could only whisper to Li.
Li Shi whispered: "The divine doctor said that it will be effective if you eat it, you wait, I think it should be fast!"
Huzi pursed his lips and said with some disbelief: "It can't be that people will be deceived, right? Just such a black pill can cure my mother's illness all these years? If it is really so easy to use, then haven't all the thoughts and money we spent all these years been in vain?"
Li was unhappy in his heart, but he didn't say anything on his face, these old ladies have taken a lot of medicine, but how much money they have spent The family knows, almost all of them are picked by themselves in the mountains, how much can they spend?
"It doesn't matter if this medicine is good or not, I haven't heard my mother's cough much when I call back, and the medicine that the old man gave to my mother when he eats is very good, but it's really not good, and then ask him for that medicine!" Huzi muttered quietly.
The leopard interrupted Huzi's words, glared at him and said, "Don't talk nonsense! Look at my mother's face, is it much whiter, the red silk before is gone, I think that the medicine is useful! Besides, since the medicine taken at noon can stop coughing, then this medicine can be worse!"
Although Huzi didn't agree with the leopard's words and pouted, he didn't refute him, and only said in a voice that he could hear: "Even if the old man has the ability, but people still ask for silver, do you know if Li Laosan gave people money, how much did he give? In case Li Laosan deceived us, who knew that this medicine must have been given by the old man?"
Li didn't hear Huzi's words, but she has been married to the family for so many years, and she knows the personalities of several people very well, and she guessed that what she said must not be a good thing.
But what she cared about was not the old lady's illness, the truth of the miracle doctor she cared about, if it was true, then his father would be saved, if it was fake, she would not let the family fall for this again!
Soon she found that the old lady not only looked good-looking, but also breathed much easier, because of coughing, the old lady's breathing had been like a bellows, and she could hear the sound of snorting when she got closer!
But for a long time, she didn't hear the old lady's breathing murmur, and it seemed that the cough and throat were cured. The face slowly turned rosy from slightly pale again!
Li's eyes are getting brighter and brighter, even if this old lady is not completely cured, but she looks much stronger, only she uses one medicine! That old man must be a miracle doctor, that's right!!
The old lady slowly opened her eyes, and the leopard asked gratefully, "Mother, how do you feel?"
The old lady raised her hand and shook it in front of her eyes, then shook her head again and slowly smiled: "My head doesn't hurt anymore, I don't even spend my eyes anymore, and I am happy to breathe, I haven't been so comfortable for a long time!"
Li was the first to jump up in surprise and shouted, "Are you really okay?"
The old lady looked at Li Shi the same, and when she saw that she was happy for herself, she didn't say anything about her, but smiled at her, got up and walked a few steps forward, and said, "I feel that even my legs and feet are a lot lighter, and it's really an elixir!
Huzi was also very surprised, and couldn't help but raise his voice, and said to her mother: "Mother! Are you really good? Doesn't that mean that Li Laosan really paid a lot of money to buy medicine from that old man? I don't know how much silver he paid! I won't spend all his money, so how can we help him in the future!"
The old lady turned around and glared at Huzi fiercely: "What are you talking about? Are we people who take advantage of others? Let's help him, which time will he benefit? This time, in order to help Niangye's illness, we used Li Laosan, but did he use us less in the past? In the future, he won't need us?"
The leopard slapped Huzi on the head: "You keep quiet, you want everyone to hear it! It's a good thing for people to think that our family is taking advantage of others, right?"
Huzi was short, rubbing his head, but he didn't dare to talk back, his mother was the biggest, and then the eldest brother, annoyed these two, there will be no good fruit to eat in the future, he is not stupid!
But it is inevitable to slander in my heart: there are only a few on the mountain, and they are not close to each other, so it is so easy for people to hear it?
The old lady also had a bad face when she heard Huzi's words, but when she saw him beaten, she couldn't help but feel distressed, it must be her own youngest son, who has been spoiled for so many years, if it weren't for today, I'm afraid that the leopard would have to brand her to complain!
After the leopard cleaned up the tiger, he observed his mother for a long time, and saw that her mother was more energetic for a while, and her cough was even more gone, and even the headache was gone, so she finally put her mind at ease.
Thinking of the medicine from Li Laosan's silver this time, his eyebrows wrinkled, and he respectfully said to his mother: "Mother! The third brother is bleeding heavily for our family this time, this doesn't owe us anything, and we are afraid that his house will not be good in the future!"
The old lady smiled, and continued to circle on the ground, she had not walked so happily for a long time, and then said slowly:
"What are you afraid of? How long can he stay with us? Don't you ask, this time it's his niece who is sick, and she only comes back to live for a few days, and when they leave, can he carry the house away? Who wants his house on this mountain? That house can't be left empty forever, and if he doesn't come back in three or two years, won't it become ours?"
The leopard nodded, thinking about it too. This Li Laosan is not like a lord without silver, living on the mountain is because he inherited the inheritance of the old king, otherwise he would definitely not come to this mountain, I didn't see that several families who originally lived on the mountain moved to the village below the mountain because of the silver or relationship.
Not to mention the safety of the people there, there is still land to cultivate! It is more convenient to do anything than here, and if it were not for the lack of silver, the family would have left long ago.
Huzi is getting older and older year by year, and he can't wait for him to live with the leopard when he gets married, so he can't find any good people!
Seeing that the leopard frowned, she also knew that she was worried about Huzi, so she said: "Mother, what do you think of the third brother's niece? If we can let her settle down with Huzi, then we will not only get the third brother's house logically, but also save the money for Huzi to marry his daughter-in-law!"
The old lady looked at Huzi for a while, and saw that Huzi looked at her with bright eyes, and the light of hope flashed in her eyes, knowing that he was looking at someone else.
However, the old lady was not satisfied, and couldn't help but say coldly: "I have seen that little girl, she is soft and weak, and at first glance she is not the material for work, and her little face is white, but her body is too thin! I am afraid that it will not be easy to give birth and raise in the future! No! She will definitely not be able to!"
"But what about the house?" whispered the leopard.
The old lady also frowned, this is a thing, I can't think of a good way for a while, but she will never let that fox into her door, she just saw Huzi once, and she hooked his soul away, which is okay!
