But Wu Jiang disagreed, saying that a little painkiller would suffice, and it wasn't a serious problem.
Because he had just overheard the two children's conversation, his first reaction was to refuse and not want to go.
My first thought was that I couldn't go; if I went, I would have to spend money to buy things, and my family didn't have that much money.
The city is a monster that devours money; these country folk can't save much money at all in a year.
The travel expenses to the city alone would be quite high, so Wu Jiang simply refused to go.
He felt that there was nothing seriously wrong with his health; it was just that he had worked hard all these years and that some painkillers would do the trick.
Wu Jiang struggled to get off the hospital bed and grabbed Song Jianshe and Wu Huan's arms, weakly trying to pull them away.
They didn't want to go to the city, and didn't even want painkillers. They just grabbed the two of them and left, afraid that the two children would send them to the city, which would cost too much money.
Song Jianshe saw that his uncle was trembling all over from the pain, but he was still holding onto the two of them tightly and wouldn't let go.
Song Jianshe felt extremely distressed, and Wu Huan's voice was already choked with sobs, "Big Brother, let's go, you're in so much pain, let's go see you."
At this point, Wu Huan had made up his mind: no matter what, he had to see a doctor to get treatment for this illness.
Even if he had to borrow from everyone, Wu Huan still wanted to take Wu Jiang to the city to see a doctor.
He was just too flustered to make a decision immediately, but he has calmed down now.
But Wu Jiang disagreed at all. Going to the city for medical treatment meant spending money, and his family really didn't have any.
Over the years, Song Lili has been helping them, but she can't give him money from time to time like she does with Song Yongren.
Even if Song Lili really gave it to me, Wu Jiang would never accept it.
After all, they were just uncle and niece. He had never raised his niece, so naturally he couldn't possibly take on a debt he couldn't afford.
So Wu Jiang didn't want to go to the city, and he pulled Song Yongren and Wu Huan along, ready to leave.
Song Jianshe grabbed Wu Jiang's arm. "Uncle, you're in so much pain right now, you can't go home. Let's go to the city. I have money. Let's get you checked out first, and we can talk about the rest later, okay?"
If Song Jianshe were to return to the village with Wu Jiang, he felt he couldn't live with himself and couldn't convince himself to really agree with Wu Jiang.
But would Wu Jiang agree? It's impossible for him to agree. Even if Song Jianshe has money, it's not their own money.
This money, once spent, will have to be paid back later.
They are just ordinary farmers; how could they possibly have the money to pay off their debts?
Moreover, going to the city would definitely cost a lot of money, and I don't know when I'll be able to pay it off.
So Wu Jiang was determined not to go to the city, and neither of them could force him. In the end, they gave in to Wu Jiang's wishes, got some painkillers, and then went home.
After returning home, Wu Jiang urged Song Jianshe to hurry back, knowing that Song Jianshe and the others were about to leave.
Wu Jiang told Song Jianshe not to worry, that it was just a minor ailment and that he would recover quickly after taking the medicine.
However, Song Jianshe was still worried. Wu Jiang's health was not as bad as he had said; it was just a minor ailment.
The problem now is that the doctors have no idea what's wrong with Wu Jiang's body.
He only said his abdomen hurt, but there are many reasons for abdominal pain. The most important thing now is to determine what the cause is.
After returning home, Song Yongren asked Song Jianshe with concern how the inspection went.
Song Jianshe was feeling down, but he still told Song Yongren everything that had happened.
Song Yongren couldn't help but sigh deeply. "Sigh, it's not your uncle's fault. It's all because of poverty. It's because he doesn't have money that he doesn't want to see a doctor."
"Otherwise, who wouldn't want to go to the hospital? Who wouldn't want to live comfortably?"
“But I told him I had money, but my uncle still refused to go to the city with us.”
Song Yongren wasn't in a good mood either; he understood why Wu Jiang had done this.
Firstly, the family had no money, and secondly, he didn't want to be a burden on his children.
Because our family isn't doing very well right now, we can only manage to have enough to eat, and becoming wealthy is simply impossible.
The money owed now will weigh on the family's shoulders for a long time to come, and may even crush the whole family.
Therefore, Wu Jiang decisively brought the two of them back.
However, even for this reason, Song Yongren couldn't help but feel sad and thought that Wu Jiang should get checked out.
Wujiang is already in this state; they can't possibly abandon things here and go back to the capital.
Song Yongren then decided to tell Song Lili that it was fine if they didn't come back.
Just as Song Yongren was talking to Song Jianshe, Song Lili called.
Song Lili then learned that Wu Jiang was sick.
In the end, Song Yongren still decided to visit Wu Jiang. Most importantly, Song Yongren felt he should persuade Wu Jiang to get a medical check-up.
The Song family is not short of money at all. Even if the Song family doesn't have it, Song Lili and Song Fang definitely do.
Therefore, Song Yongren felt that the amount of money was not an issue at all.
The most important thing now is to treat the illness. Once the illness is cured, any amount of money can be earned. No matter how much debt there is, it can all be paid off in the end. So treating the illness is the most important thing now.
Before nightfall, Song Yongren took Song Jianshe to Wu Jiang's house again, leaving Xia Niu to take care of the children alone at home.
After arriving at Wujiang's home, Wujiang seemed much better.
Perhaps because I took painkillers, now that the pain is gone, I feel more energetic.
Upon seeing Song Yongren arrive, Wu Jiang immediately perked up and said, "Why are you here? Didn't you say you were going back in the next couple of days? Don't waste time running around like this."
"I've come to see you. How are you feeling? Is there anything still bothering you?"
Song Yongren did not respond to Wu Jiang's words; returning to the capital now was simply unrealistic.
Moreover, only one person in their family might have a tight schedule; the others can postpone their projects, and it doesn't matter how long they postpone.
"I feel much better. I don't feel any pain after taking the medicine. I think I'll be fine after taking it for a few more days."
Wu Jiang still maintains the same view: he feels that after taking the medicine for a few days, his body will immediately recover.
Song Yongren strongly disagreed, saying, "I think you should go to the hospital for a checkup. If there's nothing wrong with your health, that would be the best."
