The unlucky guy was reborn as a lucky girl from a farm
Chapter 11 Accidental fall
"Don't tell anyone about what you ate, not even Mom or Dad."
Although he didn't understand why, Niu Li promised solemnly: "I will definitely not tell anyone."
Nier peeled off the water chestnut skin and handed the flesh to Niu Li, "Eat it."
The two of them ate a pound of chestnuts. They felt full after a long time and suddenly had strength. The two children skipped back home, but were seen by their grandmother, who froze where she was.
"Didn't I tell you not to go out and play? I wonder what you'll do if you can't sleep at night because you're hungry. It must be you, the little rascal, who instigated it again."
The old lady took out a broom from the house and was about to hit Ni'er with it.
Yan Zi heard the noise and rushed out to plead for mercy, hugging Ni Er, "I was the one who asked them to leave, so if you want to hit someone, hit me."
The old lady was furious when she heard this, not caring whether Yan Zi was pregnant or not, "You two are so rebellious, you dare to disobey my words."
It hit Yan Zi all of a sudden.
A man ran over from a distance, "Mrs. Niu, please stop fighting. Something happened to your third child."
After hearing this, the old lady stood there for a few seconds in shock, and then quickly followed the person to check the situation.
Yan Zi was beaten badly. She finally stood up, but she felt dizzy and was about to fall down again. The two children supported their mother and after resting for a while, they hurried to see the third child.
"Stay at home and don't walk around."
Ni'er and Niu Li quickly agreed, not wanting their mother to worry about them anymore.
When the old lady saw the third child lying on a simple stretcher, covered in blood, and not knowing whether he was dead or alive, her head suddenly buzzed, "Will he be able to work in the future..."
Yan Zi was also shocked by the scene when she entered the room, "Brother Niu...Brother Niu Dan, how is the third brother...how is he?"
When the old lady heard this, she also looked at Niu Dan, eager to know how badly the third brother was injured.
Niu Dan frowned, "Today, Lao San is not as energetic as he was a few days ago. He seems to have no strength when working. I asked him if he needs a rest, and he said no."
"Later, he was building adobe bricks higher up and climbed up a ladder. After building just a few, he suddenly lost his strength and fell off the ladder. The doctor arrived right away."
When the old lady heard that they had hired a doctor, she thought that the money she earned would not be enough to pay for the consultation. She quickly waved her hands and said, "We are all farmers, why do we need to hire a doctor? Falling is not a big deal. I guess it will be fine after a few days of rest."
Niu Dan gave the old lady a deep look and said, "I'll pay for it."
The old lady was relieved immediately, "It's normal for me to get injured while working in your house."
Someone shouted, "Dr. Zhao is here~"
The people surrounding the third brother quickly moved aside to leave space for the doctor to treat him.
Doctor Zhao took the patient's pulse, closed his eyes slightly, and after a while he said in silence, "This patient has been hungry for a long time, and he lost his strength while working, so he broke his leg. He needs to rest in bed for at least three months, but his injuries are too severe, so he can no longer do heavy work. These bloodstains are just skin injuries, and they will heal with some medicine."
The old lady was stunned when she heard this. Three months? How could that be possible? All the housework depends on him. If he takes a break for three months, there will be no one to do the farm work. He won't be able to work in the future, and he will be like a useless person.
Yan Zi was secretly wiping her tears, not daring to delay the doctor's treatment.
"Who will pay? The consultation fee plus the medicine cost is three hundred and twenty coins." Doctor Zhao asked after finishing the treatment.
The old lady avoided Doctor Zhao's gaze. Niu Dan quickly took out the money and stuffed it into the doctor's hand. He then found two people to carry Niu Lao San back.
Ni'er and Niu Li had been waiting at the gate of the yard. When they saw their father being carried by someone, their hearts skipped a beat.
"Mom, what's wrong with Dad?" Ni'er ran forward two steps and grabbed her mother's hand.
"Your father..."
Before she could finish her words, Yan Zi fainted.
"Mom, what's wrong with you? Wake up~"
When Nier saw blood coming out from her mother's body, she immediately felt that the situation was not good.
Niu Li hurried into the house and called his grandmother over.
The few people who came to help also put Yan Zi on the kang, preparing to call back Doctor Zhao who had not yet left.
"No need to see a doctor, just rest for a few days and you'll be fine. Don't waste that money."
The old lady quickly stopped the man, saying that the third son could no longer work to earn money, and that another sum of medical expenses would be almost like costing her life. She did not consider at all that almost all the money in the family was earned by the third son.
At this time, the third brother woke up slowly, saw Yan Zi lying next to him, and asked what happened.
Nier saw this as a good opportunity and cried, "Dad, grandma wanted to hit me and my brother just now, but mom took the hit for us. Then mom lost a lot of blood and fainted, but grandma wouldn't let us find a doctor."
The third brother immediately understood what was going on. "Mom, please help Yan Zi find a doctor. When I get better, I will find a job and return the money to you."
The old lady snorted coldly, "You are still looking for a job. The doctor said that you can no longer do heavy work. What else can you do? Embroider at home? Don't waste that money anymore."
The third brother's heart sank suddenly. He turned to look at Yan Zi's pale face, tightly furrowed brows, and blood flowing out from under his body.
"Mother, I beg you, please save Yan Zi. She will die if she keeps bleeding like this."
The people who were helping couldn't bear to watch it anymore and brought Doctor Zhao back regardless of the old lady's objection.
As soon as I entered the room, I smelled a strong smell of blood.
Doctor Zhao quickly gave Yan Zi acupuncture to stop the bleeding and prescribed some medicine. "The child has been saved. You need to stay in bed for a month."
Normally, Yan Zi's embroidery work could supplement the family income. Now that the two pillars of the family have collapsed, the old lady feels like the sky has fallen.
I vaguely heard that the consultation fee is two hundred and seventy-five cents. Who will pay for it?
The third brother shouted with all his strength, "Mom~"
Pull the distracted old lady back.
"Doctor, how much?"
Doctor Zhao said calmly, "Two hundred and seventy-five coins."
The old lady glared at Yan Zi hatefully, walked back to her room, closed the door, and counted out two hundred and seventy coins.
"Doctor, this is all we have at home, two hundred and seventy coins, so just use the five coins~"
Doctor Zhao was well aware of the old lady's reputation as a shrew and didn't want to get involved any further, so he packed up his things and left.
Nier took the medicine prescribed by the doctor and wanted to cook it for her mother. However, she had short arms and legs and no strength, so she worked in the kitchen for a long time before finally lighting the fire.
Seeing this, the old lady dragged Nier out of the kitchen in a bad mood and said, "Don't waste my firewood, second wife, help me boil the medicine."
Nier quickly thanked her, "Thank you, second aunt~"
"What's the point of thanking your family?" The second son's wife went into the kitchen, boiled the medicine in a short while, and sent it to the third son's room.
After taking the medicine, Yan Zi felt drowsy and closed her already heavy eyelids.
The third brother felt more and more aggrieved. He worked so hard to earn money for the family, but in the end his children were hungry and cold, and had no place to live. His wife was beaten and almost had a miscarriage, but he refused to hire a doctor because he was afraid of spending money. All these things came to his mind one after another.
Nier saw that her father's eyes were a little scary. She was afraid that he might be upset, so she quickly stepped forward to interrupt him, "Dad, are you thirsty? I'll pour you some water~"
The two children divided the work and cooperated with each other. Ni'er picked up the broken kettle, and Niu Li held the cup to prevent it from running around, and finally poured a cup of water.
"Dad, drink water."
