The girl who wears fast

Chapter 209 Dalang, it’s time to drink medicine (19)

"Father, mother, he still has a fever, what should we do now? Why don't we hire a doctor? What if he has a fever?" Erniang Wei anxiously changed Chu Ran's hot blanket The rags, while talking to Mrs. Wei, Mrs. Wei.

"What kind of doctor are you looking for? Don't you know what's going on with our family now? We can't even eat, so how can we have money to hire a doctor?" Mrs. Wei said with a straight face. The nobleman doesn't know if she is still alive, if she dies, wouldn't she even lose the medical expenses?

"But he's injured so badly. If he doesn't seek a doctor or take medicine, he's really going to die!" Wei Erniang was so anxious that tears came out. She had a premonition that this man was very important to her, and she couldn't let him have an accident. .

"Father, mother, if he dies in our house, can his family not blame us when they find him in the future? On the contrary, if we save him, then he must repay us, let alone money, Let’s just say that after the fourth brother has passed the Jinshi examination to become an official, doesn’t he have to have a backer?” After all, Erniang Wei is the heroine, she still has some brains, and she also understands the character of her parents very well, so she immediately uses her future interests as her own. The big cake tempted them.

Sure enough, old man Wei and Mrs. Wei were still reluctant, but after hearing Erniang Wei say that saving this nobleman would help their beloved fourth son, they immediately became active. It doesn’t matter if they don’t have money, just sell a few more acres of land. Yes, when this noble person is rescued, the benefits will be hundreds of times.

"Old man, sell a few more acres of the family's remaining land!" Mrs. Wei said decisively, and she went all out.

Old man Wei nodded and agreed, and Erniang Wei heaved a sigh of relief. She was afraid that her parents would still be stubborn, but she didn't expect to be persuaded so easily this time.

Sure enough, old man Wei approached the village chief very quickly, saying that he wanted to sell his ten acres of land.

Village head Hu couldn't believe his ears: "How much do you think you sold?"

"Ten mu." The old man Wei said, sighing, and complained, "You know, my house is gone. The whole family is old and young, and they can't live in a dilapidated house with holes in the roof. Right? It doesn’t matter to adults, but children can’t stand it..."

When Village Chief Hu heard this, he was silent for a while, and then said: "But wouldn't it be too much to sell ten mu? To build a new house, you only need more than a dozen taels of silver, right? Now a good paddy field costs seven or eight taels per mu. You sell Isn’t two or three acres enough to build a new house?”

This family lost too quickly. You know, Wei's house was one of the wealthiest in the village before it was struck by lightning. The family had fifteen acres of land. Mu, this is too willing.

Old man Wei kowtowed the chimney in his hand, and said casually: "Oh, isn't this Erniang rescued a nobleman from the mountain two days ago? The nobleman is not healthy yet, and he has a fever again. You have to ask a doctor, I have to buy medicine, I have no money, so I have to continue selling the fields?"

Village head Hu looked at old man Wei suspiciously. He was about the same age as old man Wei, and we were neighbors in the same village. He knew exactly who old man Wei was. If it can't bring him benefits, even his own son can be abandoned.

How could he be so selfless, kind and generous this time to sell his own land and hire a doctor for the nobleman?This is very abnormal.

Unless—the benefits he will get after doing so will be far greater than what he paid...

Village head Hu remembered what the villagers said that Wei Erniang was saved by a wealthy family, so he thought he knew that old man Wei wanted to make a big fortune with his little one. Since everyone has such courage, he will not stop others.

So he didn't try to persuade him any more, and said, "Okay, I will inquire about the buyer for you."

Old man Wei hurriedly said: "It's better to act quickly, after all, the nobleman is still waiting to ask the doctor to buy medicine! It would be bad if it was delayed."

"Okay, okay!" Village head Hu had no choice but to promise him that he would do it as soon as possible.

When old man Wei returned to the dilapidated house, he heard the crying and howling of noisy children, which made his head hurt.

"Why are you back? The fields haven't been sold yet, and the new house hasn't even been seen yet. What are you doing back?" Wei Erlang frowned, looking at Wei Erlang, who was sitting on the broken threshold, covering his head.

Wei Erlang raised his head, and replied embarrassingly: "I was kicked back by my mother-in-law. She thought our family was idle and said we were the ones who had been struck by lightning. Unlucky, there are people who can beat their family in their house..."

"What? How dare they say that?! What about your mother-in-law? Your mother-in-law doesn't help to speak? Didn't she secretly help her natal family before? Now it's her natal family's turn to help her, and she changes face?" Old man Wei was so angry that his face turned pale. flushed.

"She was kicked out too, saying that she wanted to sever ties with her, and she would not be allowed to go back in the future." Wei Erlang said dejectedly.

"Too much deceit! This is to see that we are temporarily unlucky and turn our faces and deny people!" Wei old man was so angry that he cursed his in-laws at the door, but it didn't help, so the whole family had to live in a shabby house again.

However, Chu Ran, who was rescued by Wei Erniang, occupied a relatively intact door that was used as a bed, so the rest of the Wei family were not very happy.

Wei Sanlang kicked the door panel where Chu Ran was lying on, and said, "Where did this wild man come from?! We don't have a bed to sleep in, so why don't we give it to him?"

Wei Erniang was so frightened that she hurried over, grabbed Wei Sanlang's arm, and said, "Third brother, this man is of extraordinary status, our family saved him, can he repay us well? We can't treat him badly... "

Wei Erniang talked about it so that she could earn the benefit of continuing to lie on the door panel for the unconscious Chu Ran. It is also sad to say it. A good son of An Dinghou has always slept on high beds and soft sleepers since he was a child. I can't even sleep in a decent bed, and I almost can't even keep the broken door panel.

You know, in the life of the original owner, the big house of the Wei family was not struck by lightning, so after Chu Ran was rescued, the bed he slept in was clean and tidy, and he did not wrong him, but it is different now .

Chu Ran lay there in a daze, his consciousness was fuzzy, and in a trance, he heard the sharp crying of children, the screaming and cursing of women, and some words like "reward, nobleman", and he wanted to open his mouth. Eyes, but the eyelids were too heavy, and he eventually lost his strength, couldn't open his eyes at all, and fell asleep again.

Because old man Wei was in a hurry to sell the land, village head Hu had to discount the price before selling the ten mu of land. Old man Wei was unwilling at first, but the nobleman was waiting to hire a doctor, and the family members quarreled in the dilapidated house all day long. , All kinds of things annoyed him, and he couldn't wait any longer, so he had to sell the land at a low price.
