After hearing everything He Daoqing said, Old Man Wang couldn't stop cursing.
"Dad! Help Meimei!" Wang was so anxious that he had no choice. All the money from Aunt Wang was taken away by that bastard Wang San. Now he could only hope that his father would still have some private property to support him.
Old Man Wang said nothing.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to save his granddaughter, he really has no money!
This bad old woman is always very concerned about money. She sells grain and firewood at home, but all the income is taken away before it is warmed in her hands. How can he have any extra money?
"Hey!" Old Man Wang sighed bitterly, raking his hair and squatting down, helpless.
Wang Da glanced at his own Meimei. The little girl was still lying quietly in Mrs. Lin's arms, silently, as if she was asleep, but he knew in his heart that if he didn't call the doctor, the child would be in trouble.
Less!
I think he only sold his energy to work in the fields and never kept anything secret. Every extra penny he earned was handed over to the old lady. Including the money earned from the handmade purses made by his wife on weekdays, none of the money was kept.
. He originally thought that the family did not need to hide anything, just give out everything. If he gave his sincerity, others would definitely return his sincerity!
But now, his daughter's life or death is still uncertain, but he can't even pay for life-saving money. How can he still deserve to be a father?!
He felt sorry for himself, but he had no choice but to lower his head and slap himself in the face, "Meimei, it's dad who is sorry for you!"
The sound of "papa" echoed in the room, which was a real effort.
Mrs. Lin's eyes were numb and she just stared blankly without any reaction.
"Brother, stop fighting!" Wang Er took his hand and turned to look at his wife.
Mrs. He looked at him, nodded, looked at Ms. Lin in the corner, and said, "Sister-in-law, I have a few cents here, but I can only pay for a doctor once. You can use it to save lives first."
After saying that, she walked into her room. After a while, she took out a plain purse and shook all the copper plates inside into the palm of Wang Da's hand.
A total of thirty coins was probably only enough to hire a doctor and get some medicine.
But this is much better than before.
Wang Da took the money, knelt down directly, and kowtowed to his second brother and sister-in-law. "Thank you!"
After that, without waiting for anyone else to react, he ran out of the yard.
There was no doctor in this village, and the nearest one was in Daxing Village. Wang Da ran all the way, and when he arrived at the doctor's house, it was already dark.
He explained the situation and begged the doctor to come to him with tears in his eyes. Fortunately, the doctor was kind-hearted. Although he was old, he didn't even need to eat dinner, so he just carried the medicine box and left.
Wang Da wanted to carry the doctor on his back all the way. Even though he went as fast as he could, it was already the moon when he got home.
The Wang family did not light candles, but only lit an oil lamp in the main room.
Aunt Wang has probably been helped into the back room, while Mrs. Lin is still sitting in the corner.
She didn't dare to move Meimei, fearing that unnecessary movements would cause problems. Wang Er and He were still watching, and their moods could be described as anxious.
"Come on, come on! The doctor is here!"
Wang Da pulled the doctor in. The old man was almost out of breath from running, but he still insisted on walking to Lin's side.
In the dim light, he immediately saw the unconscious little girl.
"Be gentle and carry her to the bed." The doctor ordered.
Mrs. Lin had been sitting on her knees for a long time, and her legs were a little weak, making it difficult to get up. Wang Da wanted to pick up her daughter, but she would not let go. In the end, Wang Er and Mr. He helped Mrs. Lin to stand up, holding her and hugging her.
Meimei went to bed.
Wang Da watched from behind, feeling sad and guilty.
An oil lamp was lit in the room, and the doctor opened the window to let in the moonlight so that he could see it more clearly.
Check your pulse.
"The girl was hit hard on the head. I'm afraid she fell. I'll use acupuncture first to see if she can wake up."
After saying this, the doctor took his own silver needle, roasted it with fire, and then began to apply the needle.
The room was quiet, except for the occasional cooing of an owl outside the window, which made people feel even more worried.
Mrs. Lin stood aside. She saw that her daughter had more than a dozen needles stuck in her head and her hands and was still awake. She couldn't help but cry silently with anxiety.
Wang Da wanted to comfort him, but didn't know how to do it. Wang Er looked at it and shook his head at him, asking him not to disturb his sister-in-law for the time being.
Fortunately, maybe because of the child's strong recovery ability or the doctor's superb medical skills, after a little while of burning the incense, Meimei groaned and opened her eyes soon after.
After the child woke up, his first action was to look at his mother and said in a hoarse childish voice: "Mom, does it hurt?"
Mrs. Lin burst into tears. After the doctor took out the silver needle, she stepped forward and hugged her child, burying her head in the other's thin and thin chest.
The doctor and everyone else left the room.
"The girl suffered a lot of injuries. She should have reacted when the silver needle was inserted, but this time it has been so long. It seems that she will need to take good care of herself in the future."
"Absolutely." Wang Da followed and asked, "How many sets of medicinal materials do you want to prescribe?"
"Let's start with the seventh payment. Remember not to move the child too much in the meantime. Let her rest on the bed without making any noise."
The doctor prescribed the medicine, collected the consultation fee, and was about to go back, but Wang Er stopped him.
"Doctor, we have some problems at home. I'm afraid we won't be able to pay that much for the medicine for the time being. Can you allow us to pay for it first, and then we can send it to you when we have enough money in a few days?"
When the doctor first arrived here, he noticed that the family's house was in a mess, as if it had been visited by thieves, which he understood.
"Please keep the prescription first." As he spoke, he took out a private seal from his medicine box and printed it on the lower right corner of the prescription. "Whenever someone is in trouble, although I am an ordinary doctor, I still have some problems.
Renxin, just take this stamped prescription and go to the drugstore in the town to get the medicine. When you have money later, you can refill it for me."
After Wang Da heard this, he immediately knelt down to the doctor, but was stopped. The little old man smiled and said: "Doctors are like parents. As a father, you have to take good care of your children. Regardless of gender, they all have abortions after all."
He's bleeding his own blood."
Wang Da bowed his head and was endlessly taught.
In the past, he only knew how to be filial to his mother, but he didn't care much about his wife and daughter.
After what happened this time, he finally knew that in addition to being his mother's son, he was also Meimei's father. His mother had three sons, and Meimei was the only father. Only he was the only father of his daughter.
Rely on!
Thinking of this, Wang Da bowed deeply to the doctor.
It was getting late, and he wanted to ask someone to stay, but was refused. Unable, he pushed a cart and insisted on sending the doctor home.
"I pushed the cart to take the doctor back and never came back." He went to get the cart from the hay shed in the backyard. "I went to the town on the night road. As soon as the city gate opened tomorrow morning, I went to get medicine for Meimei!"
