Chapter 174 Too tired!
Xu Laoer and Erya, father and daughter, cried to each other again.
Xu Jiaojiao looked at Xu Laoer on the kang, looking haggard and lifeless, as weak as if his soul had left the body.
He already wants to bite his tongue and commit suicide. If he has such a desire to die, he can still send someone to watch him during the day, but what if he sleeps at night?
What a painful way to die by biting your tongue?
Unless it is a last resort, who would seek death like this?
Last time I banged my head against the wall, maybe there was a hint of drama in it. This time I bit my tongue and committed suicide, dying silently. I was really desperate and didn't want to live anymore.
Xu Jiaojiao was planning to wait a while longer for her to practice acupuncture, but now it seemed that Xu Laoer couldn't wait any longer.
A bold and helpless idea lingered in Xu Jiaojiao's mind.
"Second brother, there is no end to the road. If you wait for me for a while, maybe my acupuncture skills can be used..."
Xu Laoer shed tears, shook his head, and said, "...too...tired..."
too tired!
Living like this every day is really tiring.
After Dr. Sun from the Huichun Hall in the town declined to treat him, his eldest brother Xu Xiucai had always been his hope. As a result, the eldest brother was unable to do anything.
The old girl was taught acupuncture by a traveling doctor. What’s the use?
Even if it is somewhat useful, it will take several years for the old girl to learn it. After he has been lying in bed for several years, all the muscles in his body will no longer be able to function. By then, even if the old girl knows acupuncture, she will not be able to cure him. I missed it.
The best time to treat the injury.
He will never be able to stand up again in this life, and the result will still be the same after a few years. He might as well die now and be done with it.
Don't be a drag on your family.
The family is tired, and he would rather die than live.
Xu Jiaojiao took a deep breath and said, "Okay, since Second Brother has really made up his mind, let's do this. Second Brother, do you dare to ask me to give you acupuncture and use acupuncture right now? I'm not sure, it's possible.
If the prick is done well, it may cause problems, but if the second brother is not even afraid of death, I don’t think the second brother will worry about any worse results. Second brother, do you dare?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.
Looking at Xu Jiaojiao, I realized that she was not joking.
Mrs. Xu Zhang was the first to say, "No, old girl, you have only practiced for a few days. As a novice apprentice, how can you treat people if you don't practice acupuncture for two years?"
How courageous is this!
How brave the old girl is!
A newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger.
Xu Youde also meant the same thing and was more than half worried.
Xu Laoer was originally crying, but after hearing Xu Jiaojiao's words, he stopped crying.
He looked at Xu Jiaojiao.
After hesitating for half a second, he nodded, "...dare..."
Yes, he is not even afraid of death, but he is still afraid of Xu Jiaojiao's half-baked acupuncture skills?
Now that he is like this, how much worse can the result be?
It's amazing that he was stabbed to death!
Xu Jiaojiao was also forced. She wanted to wait, but Xu Laoer lost her will to live and she had no time to continue practicing.
Let's try pricking it first. If it works, even if it has a slight effect, it can restore Xu Laoer's desire to survive.
Xu Laoer is now focused on survival, but there is no hope at all.
She couldn't wait, and she had no idea whether the acupuncture was effective or not.
She needs to give it a try too.
"Okay, second brother, when your tongue gets better, I will start giving you acupuncture in a few days. The acupuncture needs to be combined with tiger bone wine to be more effective. We have prepared the tiger bone wine and it is almost ready. Your tongue is not good.
, it will hurt you if you drink, I am also prepared..."
That's it.
Mr. Xu regretted biting his tongue and committing suicide, which prevented him from starting the acupuncture immediately.
No one else objected.
Xu Youde hesitated for a long time without saying a word. Finally, he sighed and finally agreed.
Mrs. Xu Zhang couldn't think of any good method, so just do it if you want.
It's all like this, and it's really been forced into a dead end.
Come out of Xu Laoer's room.
Mrs. Xu Zhang calmed down and remembered the time when Xu Jiaojiao went to Liao Qing to pay back the money.
Asked how it went?
Xu Jiaojiao told Liao Qing about not accepting money.
I didn’t tell her what Mother Liao said.
Mrs. Xu Zhang said happily, "Liao Qing is such a good young man. He doesn't want you to pay him back. He probably thinks it's not safe if he keeps it in his own hands. With his mother's personality, she won't let him keep his private property, so that's okay.
, just put it in your hands. You are going to get married in the future anyway, and you will be one family by then. His money is also your money, and your money is also his money. There will be no distinction between husband and wife in their lives."
Xu Jiaojiao was naturally embarrassed to say that Liao Qing said that he would give her the money as a betrothal gift, but she only said that Liao Qing would not accept it anyway.
Xu Zhang figured out that Liao Qing wanted to keep the money in Xu Jiaojiao's hands so that he could live in the future.
"Then I will return it to him when it is convenient for you to save your money in the future. I don't want his money anyway."
Mrs. Xu Zhang thought that Xu Jiaojiao was thin-skinned and smiled, "You two are really like enemies. Everyone is fighting to get the money. One of you wants to give it to the other and you want to pay it back. You are not happy to give it back.
Okay, let's keep it for now. I heard that Liao Qing's house in Liaojia Village has been very lively recently. Since he killed the tiger and became famous, many little girls have come to hang out at Liao's house and talk about what they want to see.
Tiger-fighting hero, Jiaojiao, you have to be more vigilant. Talk to Liao Qing more when you are free to keep in touch..."
"oh!"
Mrs. Xu Zhang is quite well informed! I wonder if she has guessed Mother Liao’s thoughts.
"Mom, I will keep this money in my hand for now. What did Dad say?"
"Your father naturally said he would pay it back! This saves your father from having to use his brain too..."
Xu Jiaojiao nodded, whatever her mother said was right, "Okay!"
"Mom, please lock the money in the cabinet for me first. I'll go to a bank in town to exchange it for silver notes some other time when I'm free."
There is no lock in Xu Jiaojiao's house, and all the valuables in the house are in Xu Zhang's and Xu Youde's rooms.
Mrs. Xu Zhang agreed, and now that she had money in hand, she felt more at ease.
Liao Qing is such a good young man, there is nothing to say.
atmosphere!
Such a large amount of money was borrowed as soon as I was asked to borrow it. I still refuse to accept it now and still let it be kept. This is because I knew that Xu Laoer of the old Xu family was not well yet, so I deliberately put it in Xu Jiaojiao's hands and let Xu Jiaojiao
They should feel at ease. After all, in this difficult situation, having money is better than having no money.
