Doctor Xue's face was filled with sympathy and pity. "Yes, at least one hundred taels of silver. And that's assuming everything goes well. If his condition relapses during treatment... then the cost will be even higher."
"More expensive is...how much?" Zhao Erya and Zhao Xiaowu both had tears in their eyes.
Although their father had disappointed them a little in the way he handled things before, he was still their father after all, the biological father who had been very good to them since they were young.
Doctor Xue looked sympathetically at the Zhao family members wearing patched clothes, sighed, and said, "If the disease recurs, we will need to use expensive herbs like blood ginseng, so two hundred taels is also possible."
Two hundred taels?!
These three words exploded above everyone's heads like a thunderclap!
Xu San and his father Xu Wang looked at each other and saw despair in each other's eyes.
This price... is too high, right?
"So, have you decided to treat me?" Doctor Xue looked at them seriously.
Li was in a dilemma. As a woman, two hundred taels of silver was enough to crush her spirit.
At this moment, Zhao Er was conscious. After hearing what Doctor Xue said, he shed tears of despair.
Mrs. Li clenched her fists and said, "Doctor, we will treat her. We must treat her. Her father cannot die..."
"If this is your family's decision, then fine..."
However, before Doctor Xue could finish his words, he was interrupted by someone.
"Second sister-in-law, are you crazy?"
The person who spoke was Zhao San.
That is Zhao Er’s third brother who has always been cautious and self-protective.
Zhao Erya glared at him: "Third Uncle..."
Zhao San said with a cold face: "Second sister-in-law, this is two hundred taels of silver, where did you get it from?!"
Li: "I..."
Zhao San: "Our family hasn't split up yet, so the decision can't be made by you, right? You can't make the decision, right?"
For a moment, many people looked at Zhao San.
Zhao San’s words were very clear.
Because the Zhao family has not yet split up, the debt needs to be borne by the entire Zhao family, and he, Zhao San, has to bear this debt as well, which he is unwilling to do.
"Xiao San, that's your biological brother..." Li cried.
Zhao San shook his head: "Second sister-in-law, such a large sum of money is beyond the Zhao family's ability to afford, so... let's leave it to our parents to decide."
"I'll go back and tell my parents about this first." After saying that, Zhao San turned around and was about to leave.
Xu San immediately stepped forward and said, "Uncle Zhao, we need help so badly. It's not right for you to leave. I'll go tell Grandpa Zhao and Grandma Zhao."
Xu San's friend Wu Yun also quickly said, "I happen to have an ox cart here. I'll go back and pick up Grandpa Zhao and Grandma Zhao."
Zhao San wanted to say something, but Xu San and Wu Yun didn't give him a chance to speak and turned around and ran out.
The young man was so fast that Zhao San couldn't stop him at all.
Zhao San was unhappy inside, but he didn't want to show it.
Doctor Xue looked at the group of people. Mrs. Li and the children were sobbing beside them. He shook his head and said, "For the time being, I can only stop the bleeding of the patient's wound. The rest... can only wait."
Li became more and more desperate.
Will the Zhao family... bear this huge debt for them? It's really desperate.
And...will the old man and the old lady really come?
And now——
