He's face turned pale.
She said anxiously, "Even after the family division, I am still his aunt! We are from the same village, how can she ignore it? Just tell me whether your boss Han is here or not?"
"Boss Han is not here," the little beggar scratched his ears, "Besides, our boss is also a well-known person, not everyone can see him. Tell me what you want first!"
He Shi didn't care about much: "Our boss went to town yesterday and didn't come back all night. We looked for him all the way here, but didn't see him. I wanted to ask if he was in town."
The little beggar asked, "What does your boss look like?"
He compared: "Our boss is this tall, with thick eyebrows, big eyes, and dark skin. When he left yesterday, he was wearing a royal blue gown."
"Oh," said the little beggar, "I know. He entered the city at 20:00 yesterday. I saw him."
He was surprised and asked, "Where is he?"
The little beggar made a gesture to ask for money. He was stunned for a moment before she understood what was going on. She angrily asked, "Why do you want more money?"
"What else?" The little beggar chuckled, "We live on this, and who doesn't pay for information?"
...
...
He yawned and leaned against the wall: "If you don't want to give it to me, forget it. You can take your time to find it."
He was anxious, but she never carried any money with her. After hesitating for a long time, she gritted her teeth, took off the silver hairpin on her head, and gave it to him: "Is this okay?"
This hairpin looks big, but it feels light in the hand, so it must be hollow.
The little beggar picked it up, clicked his tongue in disgust, and pointed to the right: "As soon as he entered the city yesterday, he was dragged into the alley over there. I don't know what happened. This morning, I saw someone sending him to the clinic over there." He pointed the way.
He was so frightened that she almost fainted.
Then she rushed over there, and everyone followed her. When they reached the end of the alley, they saw a large pool of blood on the ground.
He knew something was wrong and was so frightened that she felt dizzy. She quickly ran back and soon found the nearby clinic. As soon as she entered, she saw Tang Yongfu lying beside the clinic, groaning loudly in pain.
He burst into tears: "Boss!"
The doctor heaved a sigh of relief when he saw someone coming and asked, "Is this your family member?"
He said to He: "Hurry up and pay the medicine and consultation fee so that I can fix his leg."
He just cried silently. Tang Shijin called her twice, and she cried so hard that she couldn't raise her head.
Tang Yongfu was covered in blood and mud, and I don’t know if it was because of the pain that he became incontinent, but there was also a strong smell of feces and urine.
Tang Shijin gritted his teeth, stood up and stepped back a few steps, exhaled calmly, and then asked, "I wonder how much it will take?"
The doctor said: "Both of his legs are broken. It is impossible for him to fully recover. I can only ensure that he can walk in the future. Moreover, his body is covered with wounds and he has lost too much blood. He needs to be nursed back to health..."
He muttered for a long time: "Pay twenty taels of silver first, and I will pay the rest later."
Tang Shijin was surprised: "Do you need so much?"
The doctor said impatiently, "Broken bones, do you think it's just a minor injury? When he was sent here, he was almost out of breath. If I hadn't treated him out of kindness, he would have died long ago!"
He waved his hand as he spoke: "If you don't want to be treated here, feel free to seek treatment from someone else. Just pay for my medicine and consultation fee today first, a total of eight taels and nine cents."
Tang Shijin was silent for a long time: "Doctor, our home is far away, and I don't have so much money on me. Please treat my father first, I will go back and ask my grandmother for money, and then pay."
The doctor frowned.
Tang Shijin said: "Don't worry, we have money at home and we will not default on the debt."
The villagers nearby also said, "Don't worry, we are from Jubao Village, we will all guarantee him."
"At the Fushou Winery, right?" The doctor's face looked better. "There are many capable people in your village. Fine, I will treat him first. You can raise the money as soon as possible."
At the same time, he asked He to move aside and asked the servants to carry Tang Yongfu in.
Everyone decided to go back to the village to report the news first.
Originally, they wanted He and Tang Shijin to wait here, but Tang Shijin said, "I am very anxious. I have to go back and tell grandma. If I don't go back, I am afraid that grandma will be reluctant to come because she feels sorry for the money. Besides, I can't help much here, so let my mother stay here."
When everyone heard this, they agreed, so they left an old father-in-law who had been in charge for many years to take charge, and a daughter-in-law stayed behind to comfort He, while the others hurried back to the village.
Tang Shijin was originally a weak scholar. After walking for several hours for two consecutive trips, he was so tired that his whole body was about to fall apart.
As soon as he got home, Mrs. Sun asked him questions again and again. He sat down and rested for a long time before he told her what happened.
Grandma Sun was both shocked and angry: "Da Lang rarely goes to a town, how could he possibly provoke such a person? I don't know how he made an enemy, but he beat someone to death!"
Tang Shijin closed his eyes slightly, and after a long while he said calmly: "It may not be Dad who caused it. Don't you think about it, who in our village has such connections, knows so many people in the town, and even knows the gangsters..."
Grandma Sun was shocked: "Tang Shiyue! This little bitch is so evil and ruthless that she actually came up with such a trick! How much hatred does she have to hurt others like this!"
Tang Shijin sighed, "Twenty taels of silver may not be much for her, but for us, it is a year's living expenses... and with Daddy's injury, twenty taels may not be enough. What should we do?"
"Tell her to pay! She beat someone up and is pretending nothing happened!" Granny Sun was furious, her triangular eyes widened. "I just don't believe it. No matter how capable this bastard is, she can still be unreasonable! Just wait and see how I deal with her!"
She was so angry that she even forgot to be afraid and went to the stone house cursing all the way.
When she reached the door of the stone house, she sat down on the ground, crying, cursing, talking and singing. Soon a group of people gathered around her, but because it sounded like something big had happened, they didn't immediately pull the people away.
But now, Mrs. Sun didn't dare to go forward and bang on the door regardless of the consequences, but instead started to act pitifully.
Tang Shiyue was in the yard, leisurely drinking a glass of sugarcane juice.
When she heard that Mrs. Sun had almost finished scolding, she opened the door and came out.
As soon as she came out, everyone's discussions stopped instantly.
Grandma Sun's voice also stopped, and then she became even louder and started crying.
Tang Shiyue said: "Grandma, don't cry yet, listen to me."
She just spoke at a normal volume, neither amplified nor slowed down. Once Granny Sun started howling, she could no longer be heard and had to stop automatically.
At this moment, a thought flashed quickly through Tang Shiyue's mind.
Why should we strive to be the best?
I want no one to dare to speak when you speak, and no one to dare to turn the table when you pick up food.
Tang Shiyue then spoke up, slowly saying, "First, our family has been divided, and I haven't even seen my uncle these days. Why would I hire thugs to beat him up?"
She paused and said, "Some people said that he stole my wine... Yes, a jar of wine was lost, but before Shanzi said it yesterday, I never suspected that it was my uncle who stole it. If I knew who stole it, I wouldn't let him steal it, right?"
Everyone was speechless for a moment, thinking that this was the truth!
Tang Shiyue continued, "Second, uncle went out yesterday because of the message sent by Tang Shuizhi. I didn't even know he went out, so how could I harm him? Why didn't grandma go to Tang Shuizhi, but came to me? It's not my turn, right?"
She paused and raised a smile: "Or is it that no matter who has problems, grandma is used to coming to me first to make trouble?"
Mrs. Sun was speechless.
She then asked: "Then, what's going on?"
Tang Shiyue said: "I don't know."
Mrs. Sun held it in for a long time, and then said, "Even if you don't know, he is your uncle! Can't you give a little money? Give him a hand?"
Tang Shiyue interrupted and said, "So you did it for the money."
Mrs. Sun was speechless again.
