The best grandson of Nongmen

"As long as you can take her away and give her a mouthful of food, she will be part of your family from now on."

"You want to sell her to me?" Qi Lingling said.

Qi Yuanfeng smoothed things over and said: "It's not about selling, it's about asking Cao'er to work with you. Lingling, there are many scholars in Linxian County and there are little book boys who serve them. That's pretty much what it means."

The fourth uncle knew that Qi Yuanfeng was giving him dignity, but he was a dying man, so he still cared about this. He smiled and looked at Qi Lingling and said: "It can also be said that I am selling grass to your family, but you You don’t need to pay her, just let her stutter in your home, don’t let her end up in those unclean places, and when she grows up, match her with a good family.”

"Are you explaining the funeral arrangements?" Qi Lingling spoke again.

Suddenly the scene became quiet.

Qi Yuanfeng glanced at Qi Lingling helplessly, but did not blame her.

"I can lend you money to see a doctor." Qi Lingling said again.

The fourth uncle smiled and waved his hand. The fact that this child could say this showed that she was a good character and someone worthy of being entrusted to her.

Cao'er's eyes lit up and she immediately knelt down towards Qi Lingling.

"Thank you, I will definitely treat you like a cow or a horse."

Qi Lingling shook her head and said, "You are too thin."

"And I borrowed the money just for my grandma's sake. If you want to thank them, just thank them."

After all, it was their first time meeting each other, so they were really not familiar with each other.

It was also the first time for my fourth uncle and my uncle to experience such a thing, and they didn't know what to say.

Cao'er was also a little confused. She looked at Qi Lingling for a while, then at Qi Yuanfeng, and finally focused on her grandfather.

Uncle Su said, "There's no need to borrow money. I've been suffering from this disease for so many years in town and there's no way to cure it, so I don't waste money."

"Grandpa, let's go to the county seat." Cao'er looked at his fourth uncle pleadingly.

The fourth uncle shook his head.

Qi Lingling looked at her grandfather.

Qi Yuanfeng said: "We happen to be going to the county town tomorrow. You take the child with us to the county town. Whether you like it or not, we can take the child to Lin County. This child is your only relative. If you really want to leave, even if our family is nice to her, they can't make up for the regret."

Cao'er burst into tears. Yes, her only relative was her grandfather, and she didn't want him to die.

The uncle also advised: "Fourth, go and have a look. If you are afraid, I can accompany you to the county seat tomorrow. Speaking of which, I haven't been to the city for a long time, and I also want to see the excitement."

The fourth uncle's nose felt sour. The evildoers in the family didn't care about him, but in the end, his cousin and cousin-in-law cared about him. He was not considered a failure in this life.

Finally he agreed.

When Xu Yuanniang learned about the affairs of her fourth uncle's family, she also sighed and said: "My fourth brother was considered a capable person in the village at the beginning, but I don't know why those cousins ​​became like this later."

"This person just needs comparison. Now that I think about it, we can still get some from our family." Qi Yuanfeng said with emotion.

Qi Lingling couldn't help but laugh and said: "Master, if uncle and the others heard this, they would definitely not know whether to laugh or cry."

"Never mind them, don't think that I don't know that they also have their own little thoughts." Qi Yuanfeng snorted.

"

By the way, are you willing to let Cao'er follow you? "

Qi Lingling put her hands under her head and said calmly: "It's okay. Listen to my fourth uncle, I don't need to pay Cao'er."

Qi Yuanfeng couldn't help but smile when he heard this. She was indeed his good granddaughter, and she was still thinking about money at this time.

"It's true. As you get older, you really need someone to take care of you, otherwise it will be inconvenient."

Qi Lingling didn't think there was any inconvenience, but it was awe-inspiring to have someone follow her. Anyway, she could still give her a mouthful of food for no money. She thought about it and said, "If you are not very smart or disobedient, I will do it again when the time comes." Pack it up and send it back."

"Can it still be like this?" Xu Yuanniang said in surprise. "Lingling, your fourth uncle is not in good health. He doesn't know how long he can live. If you don't like this girl Cao'er, just leave her at home to help me, and you can buy someone else here."

Qi Lingling has no objection.

When I left Qi's house in the evening, my fourth uncle and Cao'er were in the car.

The next day when I went to the county town, I still used the Li Zheng family's ox cart, but the driver was the second son of the Li Zheng family. He was very talkative, so the journey was not boring.

When he arrived at the county town, Qi Yuanfeng smiled. He had been here for more than ten years and was very familiar with it. He went directly to a medical clinic that even ordinary people could afford.

My fourth uncle was very embarrassed.

"Fourth brother, don't be afraid, we are all here." Xu Yuanniang comforted.

The fourth uncle was a little embarrassed. He was a grown man and wanted to be comforted by his cousin, and there were juniors watching. He coughed and said, "Well, I'll go."

It's just that my body is shaking.

As the old doctor frowned, Qi Lingling's hearts also followed.

raised.

The fourth uncle's forehead was sweating.

Cao'er's eyes were filled with tears.

"Stop shaking." The old doctor frowned and looked at his fourth uncle.

The fourth uncle swallowed his saliva and stammered: "I, I, doctor, am I?"

"How did you drag a simple cold into this state? Where did you get medical treatment before?" The old doctor frowned.

"Ah?" The fourth uncle didn't respond.

Qi Lingling turned her eyes and said slowly: "Fourth uncle, the doctor said your illness is not serious, and it doesn't look like it is fatal, so you don't have to worry."

The old doctor stroked his beard and glanced at Qi Lingling, who was less than the height of the table, and said with a smile: "The little girl is very articulate, but what she said is almost the same, but she delayed it for too long, and she overthought, and she had a hidden problem. , although it is not fatal for the time being, but if it continues to be delayed, it will only last two or three years!"

"Doctor, please save my grandpa." Cao'er immediately cried and looked at the old doctor.

The old doctor said slowly: "Don't cry, I'm watching."

After speaking, he looked at his fourth uncle and Qi Yuanfeng and said, "The medicinal materials required for his disease are a bit expensive. One course of treatment requires nine medicines, and one medicine costs two taels of silver."

The fourth uncle’s face turned pale!

Cao'er also wanted to cry. Although she had never been a housekeeper, she also knew that one tael of silver was worth a lot of money.

Even Qi Yuanfeng frowned.

"There is no cure." The fourth uncle said directly, then stood up and left.

Qi Yuanfeng held him down and he looked at Qi Lingling.

Qi Lingling turned her eyes and said, "Since my fourth uncle has brought you here, this disease still needs to be treated."

She looked at the old doctor and said, "How many courses of treatment are needed?"

? ”

If it was too much, she would hesitate.

The old doctor Qi Lingling was particularly kind and said with a slight smile: "The medicine for the first course of treatment is more expensive, and the medicines for the subsequent courses are cheaper. I don't mean to make money through this."
