"What? Are you injured again? Where?" When the doctor saw him, he knew that he was in trouble again.
This kid has rarely been injured recently. Could it be that he encountered a big monster?
Alas, mom died even though dad didn’t love her. How pitiful. But at least he has grown up. In another year or two, he will be able to get married and have a family. He also has hunting skills and can make a living.
Considering Xiao Lei's name, it's really hard to find a husband for him. Who would marry their daughter to a man who has a bad fate and a family that comes to ask for money every day? Even if he earned a mountain of gold and silver, it would not go into his own pocket.
"Uncle, I'm not injured, I just want to ask you for a favor."
The old doctor turned around and asked, "What did you say?"
………………
"Da Shu, I heard that the kid from the Xiao family went into the mountains and encountered a wild boar. When he was carried down the mountain, he was covered in blood. It was really scary."
Well, he acted so quickly, it must be that boy had evil intentions towards his daughter.
"Dead?"
Liu Shunzi: ...How do you talk?
"No, at least he's still breathing. I heard the doctor hasn't left his house for a day, so he's probably dead.
You said we are so close to him, do you want to take a look? ”
"What are you looking at? If I meet Xiao Ping later, I'm afraid I won't be able to resist beating him up."
What are you talking about? Did Xiao Ping provoke you?
Zhao Dashu didn't want to hide it, but how could he not know if others didn't know? Nine times out of ten, they were pretending.
That's right, this guy is really smart, he understands what I say immediately. He is in such a bad condition now, it would be a dream to expect Xiao Ping to pay for his treatment. It's only a matter of time before he is kicked out of the Xiao family.
"Can you tell me the extent of his injury? Will he die?"
Liu Shunzi felt that his brothers spoke too harshly today, and the kind-hearted Zhao Dashu from before was gone. Did Xiao Yan offend him?
"Okay, I'll ask around."
In the shabby adobe house, Xiao Yan was wrapped like a mummy, his bloody clothes were thrown on the ground beside him, and the water in the basin was blood red, which was shocking to look at.
Xiao Yan was lying on the bed, his face as pale as a dead person, and it seemed that he was breathing in less than out.
Xiao Ping was timid and afraid of blood to begin with, so he stood far away and didn't dare to get close. There was no trace of Yang at all. The old doctor got angry when he saw how cowardly he was. It was just his own son's blood, but he could be scared like this. He was really outrageous.
"Doc, is he... is he okay?"
He is his own son, and he feels very uncomfortable watching him lying in bed unable to move.
"I don't think he'll die."
I thought of what my wife had asked me when I came here, "Is he seriously injured? Can he be cured?"
As soon as he farted, the old doctor knew what his purpose was. "It can be cured, but it will cost at least twenty taels of silver. Even if he is cured, he won't be able to continue hunting in the future. He has internal injuries and probably can't even walk on mountain roads. He can only be carefully taken care of for the rest of his life and can't do heavy work."
These were all discussed in advance between him and the boy. He said this was the only way he could get away from the Xiao family.
The old doctor closed his eyes, never thinking that after treating patients all his life, one day he would open his eyes and tell lies, and start acting like a liar.
Thinking that his whole life's reputation was ruined by the boy in front of him, he glared at Xiao Ping hatefully, it was all because of him that he was such a cruel and black-hearted guy.
Xiao Ping's face was almost as pale as his son on the kang. Not counting the twenty taels of money for the medicine, would he become a disabled person in the future?
If his family knew about this, they would definitely have a huge fight with him.
"Doctor, I have no money."
"You don't have any silver, so you're just going to watch him die on the kang? It seems like all the silver Xiao Yan earned from hunting was taken away by you guys, right? Twenty taels should be enough, right?"
"How can there be so many! Those are just small objects, worthless." He didn't lie. These coins could only be worth about twenty taels from Xiao Yan at most.
It is not easy to hunt big prey. Most of the time, Xiao Yan just hunts rabbits and chickens. Sometimes, if he is lucky, he may catch a roe deer.
He had never hunted expensive animals like wild boars, wild wolves and big insects. But it's easy to imagine that seeing these things, everyone would be scared and run away immediately.
So he thought it was normal that Xiao Yan had never caught a big animal. His wife often complained to him that he must have sold it secretly and didn't bring it back.
He just didn't believe it. How could his son possibly hunt something that even mature hunters couldn't? He thought that it was all thanks to his ancestors that he was able to come back alive.
"No? You don't plan to treat him?"
"How can I treat him without money? How about I buy him on credit first and pay him back slowly after he recovers."
"He can't hunt or do heavy work anymore, so how can he return?"
Speaking of the future, Xiao Ping felt like the sky was falling. His eldest son would become a cripple. Would he have to support him?
No, no, no, absolutely not. What if I take him home and kill him? Even if he agrees, his family won't agree.
He didn't want to have quarrels and noises at home every day, and he didn't want to go to bed early to accompany his parents.
"Doctor, you stay here first. I suddenly remembered that I have something to do at home, so I'll go back first." Xiao Ping was afraid that the doctor would pester him and blackmail him, so he had to go back to have a good talk with his wife.
After he left, Xiao Yan opened his eyes immediately. The doctor hit him hard and said, "Look, you are just pretending to be sick, but why did you make yourself half dead?"
Those injuries are not all fake, the young man is really cruel. Although most of them are superficial injuries, how many people can be so cruel to themselves?
"It's okay. I was slightly injured when I struck. I'm really not hurt at all. How could I have lied to the people in the village who carried me back to my hometown? My stepmother is not a fool."
"Hey, I hope your hard work this time was not in vain. Take a rest. I will make some medicine for you."
"Thank you, Doctor."
On the other side, Xiao Ping was rushing home in a hurry, and didn't even bother to greet the villagers he met on the way.
"He was chased by a dog?"
"What? Xiao Yan must have been badly injured, so he went home to discuss things with his wife."
"My San'er carried Xiao Yan yesterday. He said his clothes were all covered in blood, as was his face. He looked like a bloody man. Do you think he could still be alive after losing so much blood?"
The other party shook his head. "I don't think it's possible. If Xiao Ping was a good person, would he be so anxious?"
"It's scary to think about it. A healthy person came down the mountain and ended up like that. I tell you, I'm scared now when I see the back of the mountain. I don't know where he encountered the wild boar."
