Concubine Shang Yunxiao

Chapter 66 No money for medical treatment, only waiting to die

"I've already eaten." The old man sat by the fire basket, picked up the long fire chopsticks on the ground, fiddled with the charcoal, and immediately smoke and dust rose up.

The three of them didn't care about that much, so they drank porridge in the dusty sky.When they are hungry for a long time, even wild vegetables make them feel fragrant.

"The nobleman seems to be on his way." The old man asked, "It was snowing last night, you..."

"I'll tell you the truth, old man. Yesterday we went down the mountain and encountered a sudden storm. If we hadn't found a cave by chance, we would have been buried in the snow." Ye Yangjun sighed.

"The cold wind and snow will come back in March, no one expected it. It is a blessing among misfortunes to be able to survive." The old man said with a slight sigh, and glanced at the girl lying on the bed.

The girl's chest didn't rise and fall at all, which made people feel that she wasn't alive.

Ye Yangjun was puzzled and asked: "Master, is this girl your daughter?"

The old man nodded, his eyes were sad but his face was calm, as if he had already accepted an irreparable tragedy."It's about to die," he said.

Yuanxi and Lord Yeyang exchanged glances, and they narrowly escaped death, and understood the meaning of life and how good it is to live.How can you see a life is about to die.

Yuan Xi asked, "What's wrong with her? Is she sick?"

"Yes, there is no money for medical treatment, and the only option is to wait for death." The old man said calmly, his eyes fell into the burning charcoal basket.

"If you have money, is there any help?" Yuan Xi asked urgently.

"Maybe there is a glimmer of hope." The old man smiled wryly, and said sadly, "Heng'er has traveled all over the world... I have sold everything at home, so there is no money to treat Luo'er."

"Who is Heng'er?" Yuan Xi asked.

"My son." The old man said with a sigh, "he likes to visit famous mountains and rivers, and write poems and poems. Last year, he said that he went to Beijing to catch the exam and took away all the silver in the family. He hopes to make a difference and pick me up with Luo Er I went to Beijing to enjoy the blessings, but there was no news. Luoer got a strange disease and couldn’t afford it. I am an old man with a limp and can only do some rough work to maintain a basic life. How can I have spare money to see a doctor for Luoer. She is only 13 years old.”

As he spoke, the old man couldn't bear the sadness in his heart anymore, and he burst into tears.I wiped my face with my torn sleeve.
