Chapter 1756: Go to the city to see a doctor and settle down
Chapter 1756 Go to the city to see a doctor and settle down
Everyone has finished buying daily necessities.
The village chief took everyone to find a small inn to rest.
The main reason why we need to find an inn to rest is that everyone carries a lot of goods and money on their backs.
If you don't find an inn, with so many people walking on the streets, they will definitely be hacked by those local gangs.
Of course, even if we found an inn to rest, the village chief sent half of his people to guard the supplies.
The villagers took turns going out shopping and buying supplies for each family.
Su Mingzhe didn't lack anything, but he still followed everyone to the market and bought a lot of things.
Among them, there are longevity locks for my son, jade hairpin bracelets, earrings and jewelry for Alan.
Of course, women cannot lack things for needlework.
I bought a lot of messy things.
When Su Mingzhe returned to the inn, he saw villagers gathering together, talking in low voices with serious expressions.
Su Mingzhe pulled over a young man from the village and asked what happened.
The young man frowned and whispered to Su Mingzhe:
"Uncle, people from the village came to report just now, saying that Uncle Gen was eaten by the river demon... Just now, when Master Gen heard the news about Uncle Gen, he was so angry that he almost didn't go... Fortunately, there is a medical center next to it, and the village chief asked someone to
I carried a few needles on my back and saved a life."
"Where is Mr. Gen now?"
Su Mingzhe looked up and saw no sign of the village chief or Master Gen.
"Back to the village."
The young man let out a sigh and said:
"Uncle Gen is gone this time, and only Aunt Gen and Changsheng mother and daughter are left in the family. If Master Gen doesn't go back, there won't even be anyone in charge of the family."
…
A fish demon appeared in the village, and no one was in the mood to continue purchasing supplies.
Early the next morning, everyone rushed back with supplies.
It was originally a journey of more than two days, but everyone came back in one and a half days.
Those who stayed behind in the village saw dozens of villagers returning with supplies, and their restless hearts slowly calmed down.
With the help of the villagers, Sister-in-law Gen completed the funeral of her husband Chang Gen and thanked everyone.
Everyone is about to leave.
The village chief stopped everyone and said seriously:
"Everyone, don't leave in a hurry. Now there is a river demon in the river, and everyone is afraid to go into the water to fish. I was thinking, how about we pool money and go to the city to find an exorcist master? What do you think?"
"Village Chief, I agree!"
The villagers raised their hands to express their approval.
If we don't find someone to catch the river demon while the tunnel is still open, then everyone will have no choice but to sit and wait for death when the tunnel is flooded.
Seeing that the opinions were unanimous, the village chief immediately ordered a few young men to follow him and set off again to find the exorcist master in the city.
…
night.
Su Mingzhe returned to his home and let Alan's father fall asleep first. Then he returned to the bedroom and took out the things he bought for his wife and children.
If it hadn't happened, Alan would have been very happy to see a man buying so many jewelry.
Now, she is holding the jewelry, but she can't smile.
"Alan, there's something I want to tell you."
Seeing that the woman was not interested, Su Mingzhe opened his mouth and said:
"When I went to the city this time, I went to the doctor at the medical center and asked about my father-in-law's condition. The doctor at the medical center said that my father-in-law's condition was not too serious and could be cured. It happened that the village chief was going to the city tomorrow to ask for an exorcism.
Master, how about we go to the city together to treat my father-in-law?"
"Hmm? Okay."
Alan's mother died of illness when she was very young. She was raised by her father alone. The relationship between father and daughter is very deep.
Now that she heard that her father's hemiplegia could be cured, she was naturally unwilling to give up the opportunity.
When Su Mingzhe heard the woman agree, even though he had expected it, Su Mingzhe breathed a sigh of relief.
…
As for Alan's father's hemiplegia, if Su Mingzhe really wanted to help him treat it, he wouldn't need to inject fairy energy, he could just prick it with a few needles and it would be cured.
However, Su Mingzhe has been delaying until now just to wait for an opportunity to leave openly.
…
the next day.
The village chief wants to take people into the city to find the exorcist master.
Su Mingzhe told the story about taking his father-in-law to the city for medical treatment.
Filial piety comes first among all good deeds.
Su Mingzhe, the son-in-law, is so filial to his father-in-law. As the manager of Taoyuan Fishing Village, the village chief must definitely encourage him.
…
Two days and two nights later.
Everyone arrived at Qinghe City.
The village chief took two villagers to find the exorcist master.
Su Mingzhe took his wife and children to a medical center to treat his father-in-law.
The doctor who was sitting in the hall quickly completed the pulse diagnosis and made a judgment.
My father-in-law has hemiplegia. Because he was not treated in time, he was ill for seven or eight years. Now if he wants to cure it, it will take several courses of treatment, that is, several months, to cure it.
When Alan heard this, his eyes suddenly turned red:
"Brother, don't say a few months, just a month. We're afraid we won't be able to go back. What should we do?"
…
The tunnel leading to Taoyuan Fishing Village may be blocked again at any time due to a heavy rain.
Therefore, if you really stay in Qinghe City for treatment for a month or two, no one will even think about going back.
And this is Su Mingzhe's plan.
…
Of course, it was impossible for Su Mingzhe to tell his daughter what he was thinking. At this moment, facing a woman who was anxious to get angry, he could only find another excuse to comfort her:
"Alan, my father-in-law's illness cannot be delayed. The doctor said that if it is not treated, he may be gone in another three to five years at most. So, if you can't go back, you can't go back. At worst, we'll be here
I have lived in Qinghe City for more than ten years..."
"Are we really going to live here for more than ten years?"
Alan has never left Liangjie Mountain since he was a child. Now that he heard that he would live outside for more than ten years, he suddenly didn't know what to do.
"Alan, I have everything, even if I live here for more than ten years, I still have enough money to spend!"
Su Mingzhe took out his 'savings' and let the woman take a look.
Money is heroic courage.
Although Alan is a weak woman, she still needs money to be brave.
Sure enough, after seeing the man take out hundreds of taels of silver, Alan's worries about the future and the fear of the unknown disappeared by 80% to 90%.
…
In this world, money can really solve many problems.
After confirming that he wanted to live in Qinghe City permanently, Su Mingzhe immediately went to Yaren and bought a two-entry courtyard.
After settling his family, Su Mingzhe went to Fangshi again and bought back two men, two women and four servants.
Although Qinghe City is the capital of Qinghe Kingdom, there is a severe drought this year, and many wealthy businessmen and wealthy people have gone bankrupt.
Su Mingzhe bought a two-entry courtyard for only eighty taels of silver.
The four servants were even cheaper, costing less than fifty taels of silver in total.
Two of the girls, aged 13 or 14, were taken to the market by their parents, had grass inserted into their heads and sold on the street.
When Su Mingzhe entered the market, he saw that the two girls were so hungry that their faces were emaciated and they were almost invisible.
Fortunately, he has a keen eye and can tell at a glance that these two girls have good foundations. If they are not the most beautiful women in the world when they grow up, they will at least be the beauties of a small family.
For this reason, he was generous and spent twenty taels of silver to buy the two girls from their parents.
The two male servants were originally the slaves of a wealthy businessman. Because they made a mistake and the wealthy businessman's family was in some embarrassment, they were transferred to them.
Compared to the two girls, these two male servants cost Su Mingzhe twenty-five taels of silver.
