Chapter 48
"No need, I trust you."

Hongdou counted the pea money and handed it over to the two of them, not missing a penny.

"Auntie, are you at home alone today? Why don't you come with us?"

Fu Sheng was helping to unload the peas so that they could be placed in the woodshed.

Juhua replied: "No one is watching at home, so my mother is worried."

"My eldest brother and I will take dad to see the doctor first, and let's hear what the doctor says first."

Hongdou directly introduced Dr. Sun to the two of them. Now that Dr. Sun was considered one of their own, it was easier to find him.

Moreover, Dr. Sun's medical skills are very famous in the town. Grandpa Sun will do his best because they are so familiar with each other.

The two of them are incompatible with each other, and it is much better to be introduced by someone than to blindly figure it out on your own.

Mrs. Zhang went to the kitchen to prepare lunch in advance. When relatives came to visit, it was not easy to go out hungry.

After the meal, Hongdou took Juhua and the three of them to find Dr. Sun.

Mrs. Xie and others set up the stall as usual.

There are a lot of people here who can see doctors. Sanqi and Dr. Sun have already seen them, but the patients are all queuing up, so they don't break the rules.

"Grandpa Sun, I'm here to see you today."

Hongdou said hello with a smile and asked her cousin to sit at Dr. Sun's table.

"My cousin's leg has been injured for a few months. Now he can barely walk. Could you please see if there is any treatment?"

Doctor Sun took the pulse as usual, asked about the cause of the injury, and then carefully examined the injured leg.

After a lot of looking, hearing and asking, he finally said cautiously: "It can be cured. It's just..."

"Doctor, can it really be cured?" Before Dr. Sun could finish speaking, Sun Youtian was the first to get excited.

His leg had been injured for so long, and he had long given up hope.

Even if he is not a doctor, he knows that treatment of illness will be effective as early as possible.

Now that he heard the doctor said it could be cured, how could he not be excited and surprised?

Juhua and Fusheng also looked at Dr. Sun expectantly, fearing that he would say he was wrong.

Dr. Sun is an old doctor after all. He has never seen any kind of patient. Although his words were interrupted, he could understand the patient's mood.

"Don't get excited. I can treat your leg, but you'll have to suffer a lot."

"There may be other difficulties along the way. You have to think about it clearly."

Sun Youtian didn't care whether he was guilty or not. At this moment, he only knew that his leg had a chance to be cured, and he was willing to suffer no matter how much he suffered.

He didn't want to be like a waste, relying on his son to push him with a cart for a long walk.

"Doctor, I want treatment, but I don't know how much it will cost?"

Even with all the expectations in his heart, it is natural to spend money on medical treatment. Regarding this, Sun Youtian still has some sense.

Dr. Sun hesitated and said: "This is also one of the difficulties I mentioned. Even if I try to save you as much as possible, the cost of a series of subsequent treatments will probably be no less than 20 taels of silver."

Doctor Sun's words were like a bucket of cold water poured on Sun Youtian's face, extinguishing the fire of hope that had just risen in an instant.

20 taels, the shabby house they live in now is not even worth [-] taels.

If you smash the pot and sell the iron, your family won't be able to get it out.

Sun Youtian hesitated.

He wanted to heal his leg, but. . .

Juhua and Fusheng were also frightened by the 20 taels of silver. They also wanted their father's legs to get better, but. . .

Hongdou didn't take the initiative to speak. Her family could easily get 20 taels of silver.

But for today's Xie family, 20 taels is really not a small amount of money.

Hongdou was a little embarrassed. Her aunt was kind to her father and grandma, and she couldn't turn a blind eye.

It would be great if the jelly could be promoted and sold.

"Doctor, let's treat it."

Hongdou hesitated and heard the affirmative voice of her cousin Fusheng.

"Fusheng, let's take this money..." Sun Youtian said worriedly.

"Dad, don't worry, my cousin can collect two hundred kilograms of peas from our family every day, which will be enough in a month."

"I'll find some other work, no problem."

Fusheng said comfortingly that he had calculated carefully. He collected and delivered peas every day, with the help of his sister.

He can free up some time to do other work.At worst, he would have to carry sacks for a while, which would cost him dozens of coins a day.

"Dad, listen to big brother, let's treat it. It's just this pea..."

Juhua naturally wanted her father's legs to get better, but it was just a matter of peas, so she was still a little worried.

What if one day my cousin suddenly doesn’t want it anymore.

Thinking of this, Juhua looked at Hongdou eagerly.

Hong Dou's promise would naturally not change suddenly, and she also understood her cousin's concerns.

Although she hesitated to take out 20 taels at a time, she did what she said when it came to peas.

"Yes, cousin, my family needs peas every day. This will not change, and the money is paid in cash."

"Let's treat this leg."

If it's still not enough in the end, her family will stick it on first.

Hongdou's promising tone made Sun Youtian completely relieved.

Doctor Sun made the decision after seeing a few people and didn't waste much time.

He continued to instruct: "You don't have to be so embarrassed. The fee can be paid in several installments."

"Your leg needs to be broken first and then reattached."

"It will take at least half a year for you to be completely healed. It's best to stay with me for the first month. I'll pay ten cents a day for accommodation and take care of one meal."

"After one month, if there are no other problems, you only need to come back regularly for dressing changes and follow-up visits."

He actually had to break his leg. How much pain would he have to endure?

Juhua couldn't bear the thought of her father suffering such a heavy punishment.

The same was true for Anko, her legs hurt just thinking about it.

But Sun Youtian didn't care, it was better than being a cripple all his life.

He can take it.

After all, Fusheng was a boy and shouldered many responsibilities in the family, so he was more considerate of his father's thoughts.

Rather than spend the rest of his life like this, Dad would definitely be more willing to take a gamble.

"Doctor, we all listen to you, when do you think it will start?" Fusheng asked politely.

Doctor Sun touched the beard on his chin and saw that Sun Youtian was in good condition: "Let's prepare some things tomorrow."

"Don't go back and forth. The patient will stay here today."

Fusheng and Juhua naturally had no objections, and they felt more at ease with the doctor. "Thank you, doctor."

Doctor Sun asked Sanqi to lead the three of them to the patient's residence in the backyard to rest.

Hongdou handed Doctor Sun's lunch to Senior Brother Sanqi to put away.

"Girl, although your cousin's leg can be cured, he can't continue to do heavy work after treatment."

"After all, they have been injured for a long time. I don't think they are well-dressed, I'm afraid..."

Hongdou understood what Dr. Sun meant.

Let grandma talk about this matter. After all, grandma is the elder. If she talks more, my cousin will always listen.

Moreover, my cousin and cousin can do it too, and there is no heavy work at home that my cousin needs to do.

"Thank you, Grandpa Sun, for taking the trouble."

"You are really a good doctor with superb medical skills. We in Shimen Town are really lucky to have you."

Hongdou smiled and said, Grandpa Sun is a kind-hearted doctor, and she feels no pressure to flatter him.

Doctor Sun smiled and shook his head and nodded at her. This girl just likes to coax people.

"I'm not lying. I'm now your god-granddaughter. I don't know how many people envy me."

"Haha~ You, you. Tell me, what do you want me to do again?"

Doctor Sun stroked his beard and said bluntly, this girl's good words are not in vain.

He has been in contact with this girl for so long, and he has figured it out a bit.

There were no patients behind him anyway, so he just needed a rest.

Hongdou has nothing to be embarrassed about facing Dr. Sun now. Anyway, it’s not just once or twice that she’s so shameless.
