The old man was dead, and Xiao Chen felt a little sad, but he couldn't change it.
Ordinary people would definitely die if they drank paraquat, and Xiao Chen originally had a way to treat him, but the old man didn't have the slightest desire to live. In this case, if Xiao Chen wanted to treat him, he might not be able to do anything.
Looking at the old man whose warmth was gradually dissipating on the hospital bed, Xiao Chen said: "The old man is dead. Let's prepare for his death. However, there are some things that I need to follow you back to deal with in person."
The old man is already dead, so the body cannot be left here, but must be taken back to his hometown in the countryside for burial.
Nowadays, the requirements for cremation here are not high, and there is no compulsion to cremate the corpse. Moreover, cremating the corpse requires paying a sum of money. Therefore, most people in rural areas bury the deceased in coffins secretly.
The two brothers went to the hospital and paid a fee, then covered the old man with a white cloth and prepared to carry him back.
There is nothing that can be done about this.
One is that there is no car, and the other is that the road is not easy to walk. It is best to carry it like this.
Fortunately, it's summer now, so the body won't go rancid so quickly.
Xiao Chen and the young man who looked very sad followed behind him. Xiao Chen knew that this old man was also from this town and from the next village.
However, it is difficult to get to other villages from Xiaojiacun itself, because there are no roads at all. However, over the years, Xiao Chen has become quite familiar with the villages around the town, and by hearing the accent, he probably knows where they are.
As for this old man, it was not so much that he died from drinking pesticides. In fact, he was forced to death by his family members.
So, this time Xiao Chen went to see what the old man's children and grandchildren were like.
Xiao Chen followed them for about an hour and a half, and finally saw a village.
Looking at the houses in this village, you can tell that they are not very wealthy, but looking at it, there should be a lot of fields, and many villagers have built houses along the mountains.
"Little miracle doctor, we live over there." The middle-aged man said.
Xiao Chen looked over and saw a bungalow. It was mainly a red brick house and a mud house. It looked not small, it should be more than 100 square meters.
Now here, many old houses in rural areas are of this model, because there is no money to build that kind of cement house.
Xiao Chen followed him and found that the village was still quite lively. After all, it was just the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, it was still early, and many people had not yet gone out to work.
However, many people in the village have now heard that the fifth old man of the Sun family died after drinking Baicao.
Rural people know that drinking pesticides will basically never save you. Whether you force the pesticides out of a can of shit or use other methods, such as soapy water, it is almost the same.
Especially this paraquat is really deadly.
Many villagers in the village heard that Sun Laowu had been living a bad life, being bullied by his sons and daughters-in-law, and was sick. That is to say, Lao San and Lao Si still had some conscience.
Unexpectedly, now I am drinking pesticides.
Many villagers saw the third and fourth sons of the Sun family carrying things back, which were still covered with white cloths. At first glance, it seemed that the fifth son of the Sun family must not have been saved.
This Chinese New Year is supposed to be a festive day, but I didn't expect it to turn out like this. It's really unlucky.
Except for some middle-aged or elderly people who didn't think it was important to come over and take a look, the other young people were called back by their families.
"How is Lao Wu?" asked an old man in the village.
The third child of the fifth family shook his head.
Those people knew that this old man would definitely not be saved.
Xiao Chen didn't say anything along the way, but followed behind. When he arrived at the place where Sun Laowu lived, which was the row of old bungalows he saw just now, Xiao Chen found that the place was really dirty.
The ground is all covered with chicken excrement, pig excrement, and cow excrement, and no one has cleaned it up. Now the environment here really doesn't look like it is inhabited.
The third and fourth sons carried their dead father into the hall and asked the young man to fetch the mat and put the old man on the mat.
Xiao Chen stood there and watched, knowing that this is the custom here, either carrying it to the hall or to the ancestral hall.
However, during this Chinese New Year, there should be a lot of things to deal with in the ancestral hall, so now I hear in my hall.
Not long after, Xiao Chen saw many people coming. In fact, these were the old man's sons, daughters-in-law, and grandchildren.
Xiao Chen looked over and saw that there should be more than a dozen people.
"died!"
"He is indeed dead!"
…
Xiao Chen didn't say anything, just watching and listening. There were people behind him from time to time.
What are you saying.
It was obvious that especially the wives of the old man's sons, that is, the old man's daughter-in-law, seemed very happy to see the old man die.
In addition to the fact that the old man is sick and is a burden to them, they may also feel that the old man's land allocation is unfair, which makes them even more disgusted with the old man.
Now that the old man is dead, they seem very happy.
Xiao Chen shook his head. He didn't expect that the village atmosphere would reach this level now.
If this continues, will anyone really respect their elders if they follow suit in the future?
"This little miracle doctor from Xiaojiacun, his father told him some things before he died, and he needs to handle them," said the third child.
Xiaojiacun’s little miracle doctor?
In fact, Dr. Xiao's apprentice in Xiaojiacun is quite famous.
Because in the past, when I sought medical treatment, I was basically cured.
Now I heard that the other party actually came.
Seeing that Xiao Chen remained silent, the Sun Laowu family who had been noisy just now finally calmed down.
"The old man confessed some things before he died, including the handling of his inheritance. He had saved more than 50,000 yuan over the years. In addition, he also told me about the issue of land that you are most concerned about." Xiao Chen said.
"More than fifty thousand yuan? Where is the money? Get the money out quickly."
More than 50,000 yuan is a lot of money for these ordinary villagers, so it immediately seems very different.
Looking at their faces, Xiao Chen felt disgusted.
He could only shake his head and said: "After dealing with the old man's affairs first, the money and family property will be distributed fairly. However, the old man's death was not so much caused by drinking pesticides. In fact, it was caused by some of you. In this way
Not only do you people not get any money, but you also have to go to jail."
Prison?
At this time, the fifth daughter-in-law of the Sun family, and their son all calmed down.
Didn’t the old man die from drinking pesticide himself?
How could he be killed?
It was obvious that he went back to his room and drank pesticide and died?
"The ghost of the old man will come back to look for you tonight. Then you will know who killed the old man. Soon you will know."
What?
Will the ghost come back to look for me after death?
