The old village chief was supported by someone and walked over. When he heard this, he immediately became unhappy.
"Qingshan's wife, the second son is also your son. He's almost dying, and you're not willing to spend money on his medical treatment? How can there be a mother like you in this world?!"
The old village chief glared at Mr. Zhao again and said, "Brother Qingshan, you didn't do this properly!"
Old Master Zhao coughed violently again, cough, cough, cough, and finally stopped. He nodded to the old village chief, turned around and glared at Old Lady Zhao: "Why don't you go and give the money to the second son's wife? The second son's treatment is urgent!"
Mrs. Zhao: "Can't you usually pay for medical treatment on credit?"
Mr. Zhao glared: "Hurry up and go!!!"
Li cried and said, "Mother, I don't ask for anything else, I just ask you to return the money that Miss Yun left me. Please, mother, this is a matter of life and death."
Old Lady Zhao was furious: "Are you threatening me with Second Brother's life? I've never seen a woman as vicious as you! Here, take these copper coins and go treat Second Brother's illness! If you can't cure Second Brother, I'll make you pay!"
Old Mrs. Zhao took the five taels of silver that Su Luo had given to Li, but the maximum number of copper coins she gave out was fifty.
How can I get into town and find someone to treat my illness with these fifty copper coins?
Li suddenly burst into tears.
Old Master Zhao looked at Li impatiently, then turned to Zhao San and said, "Go with your sister-in-law and take your second brother to town. Remember, you must treat him well, okay?"
After all, Mr. Zhao cares about his reputation, so he lets Zhao San go with him.
Zhao San is neither stupid nor smart. Like his wife, he is a self-protective person. He will listen to the old man and the old lady, but he will not take the initiative to cause trouble.
"Yes." Zhao San quickly agreed.
So, the ox cart finally started.
When the villagers saw the ox cart leaving, and then looked at Old Mrs. Zhao who showed no sadness at all, they all shook their heads silently in their hearts.
This old lady is so heartless, isn’t she?
In town——
Tao Ren Tang.
The best doctor in Tao Ren Tang was Doctor Xue. After examining him, he shook his head and said, "The situation isn't good."
Doctor Xue's medical skills are the best in the whole town. When he said this, Li almost fainted.
"Doctor, doctor, what do you mean by this?" Mrs. Li was about to cry.
Doctor Xue said, "Your husband's injuries are extremely severe. His hand bones are shattered, his kneecap is shattered, and his spine is broken in three sections...Isn't this from being trampled by several carriages?"
Li cried and shook her head. She didn't know what had happened.
Xu San also shook his head. "When I found Uncle Zhao, he was lying in the middle of the road, his body covered in blood and flesh... It must have been like what Doctor Xue said, that he was trampled by a herd of horses..."
Doctor Xue smiled bitterly and shook his head: "So, this injury is too serious. His life is in danger."
Mrs. Li burst into tears, "Doctor Xue, please save him, please save him."
Doctor Xue: "It's not that I don't want to save him, but... even if he survives, he'll have to lie in bed for the rest of his life, paralyzed forever. Are you sure you want to save him?"
Li: "Save him! We must save him!"
Doctor Xue looked at Li and said, "Then you better listen carefully. The initial treatment plus the subsequent medication will cost at least one hundred taels of silver."
What? !
One hundred taels of silver? !
Mrs. Li stared at Doctor Xue in disbelief. "What did you say... one hundred taels? One hundred taels of silver?!"
