Haizi's legs were tied up with bamboo curtains, but the other parts were not treated. Uncle Haizi was a little worried and wanted to ask more questions.
"Doctor Liu, didn't you say that the ribs are also broken? There are also internal injuries. How can this be repaired?"
"Take medicine. I'll go back and prepare some medicine for him, and take it on time. My medicine is very good. It's specially designed to treat red wounds. Every one of them can be cured well.
But this injury needs to be nourished. Don't let him move, let alone go to the ground. You have to eat, drink and poop on the kang, so you will suffer. "
After Liu Yitie finished speaking, he was getting dressed and was about to leave. At this moment, Haizi suddenly remembered that it was time to give money to the doctor, so he bowed slightly, but it was still difficult to speak.
"Give me money, I have..."
Grandpa Xiao took the money from Haizi, but instead of handing it to Liu Yitie, he handed it to Uncle Haizi casually: "You keep it for now. We will pay for the medical treatment, and we can't let your sister spend it."
"We'll calculate the money when we go to get the medicine later. Don't I still trust you? Look who's going to get the medicine with me?"
"Brother Liu is a miraculous doctor and a good man. He is willing to help the world. Please take a lot of trouble to prepare some good medicine for this child to get better soon. Look at how pitiful he is. He has no father and his life is difficult!" "
Grandpa Xiao said good things to Dr. Liu Yitie as he was escorting him out. When his third girl arrived at the door, she stopped Grandpa Xiao and Uncle Haizi.
"Dad and brother-in-law, please go back. Dr. Liu and I will go get the medicine."
Since the doctor was invited by the third girl, it was normal for her to follow him to get the medicine, so Grandpa Xiao did not object, but just told her to be more cautious and go back quickly.
After sending Doctor Liu away, Grandpa Xiao and Uncle Haizi made arrangements for Haizi again. They placed him on the north kang in the back room and told him not to move around and to say nothing if anything happened.
"From today on, I will sleep next to Haizi and let the big pillar sleep on the kang. Your grandma Xiao, your third aunt, and your sister sleep on the south kang, and your uncle and the others still live in the outhouse."
"Dad, I'd better serve Haizi, or let his old aunt help. You are so old that you can't move him."
Uncle Haizi felt a little sorry. After all, Grandpa Xiao was getting older, and he was Haizi's biological uncle, so it was only reasonable that he should take care of him by himself.
"You all don't know how to serve, and it's not like Haizi can't move at all. I can move him just by following his strength. You don't have to worry about it. My hands and feet are quite heavy, so I don't worry." Grandpa Xiao insisted that he serve Haizi. .
At this time, the third girl came back with the medicine. As soon as she entered the room, she hurriedly put the medicine on the kang and said that she would give Haizi the medicine.
"Let me give Haizi medicine. Liu Yitie told me how to do it. I can also feed him when he eats. You can take care of the rest. Liu Yitie said that his medicine is very effective. If you take it, you will be fine." Come on, it won’t take long before you can get to the ground by yourself.”
"You take care of it? It doesn't matter where. It saves you having to run out all day."
Grandpa Xiao actually agreed to the third girl's proposal. She knew that her third girl could do anything. She was a very capable girl, but she was a little willful.
So the third girl mixed the medicine, jumped on the kang, lifted Haizi's head and said, "Come, third aunt will give you the medicine."
"No, I can do it myself!"
"Okay, okay. Come on, open your mouth and see if the water is hot?"
"Be gentle, don't be so flustered, feed less at a time." Grandpa Xiao still didn't leave, but sat aside and gave instructions.
"This Sanxue is really good! She is really patient and promising." My aunt looked on and couldn't help but say. She and her uncle called the third girl 'Sanxue'.
"I know how to do anything, but I don't want to do anything. I have to let go of my temper." Grandma Xiao was also encouraging, and the whole family was still surrounding Haizi.
Haizi felt a warm current pouring into his heart. His uncle and his family were so nice. Haizi was extremely grateful and his eyes were a little moist.
For several days, Haizi spent time in extreme pain. Especially at night, I can't breathe, I feel uncomfortable holding it in, I can't cough even if I want to, I don't dare to cough, and my chest hurts and cramps.
I slowly tried to move left and right, but it still didn't work. My head was sweating from all the tossing, and the phlegm I coughed up was still bloody. Grandpa Xiao's family couldn't sleep well, and his uncle and aunt came over several times a night to help take care of Haizi, which was really hard work for the family.
Aunt Xiao San went to Dr. Liu's house almost every day these days, and Liu Yitie also came twice. He really couldn't stand the third girl's insistence.
After repeated adjustments and dressing changes, Haizi's condition began to stabilize after opening the curtain and changing dressings on the tenth day, and Heitian became less troubled.
That night, I saw Haizi looking very good. Grandpa Xiao and his family sat together and chatted with Haizi.
"You kid, you have such a hard life. I saw you were dying two days ago, but you are recovering very quickly." The uncle looked at Haizi, who was gradually recovering his strength, and felt happy in his heart.
"His parents have done good deeds throughout their lives and accumulated good deeds, so this child can escape this disaster." Grandpa Xiao thinks that Haizi's rapid recovery has something to do with him having good parents.
"What's the reason for beating the child like this?" Grandma Xiao held a big pipe in her mouth and sighed as she spoke.
"By the way, I went to Liu Yitie's house to get some medicine for Haizi. I saw two men with beards there who were also seeing a doctor. I heard that they were also beaten by the Yun Family Courtyard. Isn't your boss very vicious? Otherwise, why would they beat you? Like this?
It is not a gentleman not to avenge a grudge. Remember this grudge. When your injury is healed, the third aunt and you will go to him, Yun Laoer, to settle the score! "
"I'm going too, I have to kill him!" Haizi's cousin Dazhuzi, who was only ten years old, also supported him.
"The Yun Family Courtyard is not someone to be trifled with. Who in this hundred-mile radius shouldn't show respect? If you go and take revenge, you might be beaten to death before you even enter the courtyard. Please calm down."
Grandpa Xiao was a person who never caused trouble. He lived an honest and responsible life all his life. Although he was not rich, he lived a steady life without any mistakes.
Such an honest person would certainly not agree with his daughter's words such as "It is ungentleman not to retaliate against a grudge", not to mention that we still don't know why Haizi was beaten. If we are responsible for our own losses, we can't go to others to argue.
"Why did they beat you so hard? If we are justified, we have to reason with him. We can't just get beaten for no reason."
My aunt also expressed her dissatisfaction with Haizi being beaten like this. If you beat someone like this, you must at least apologize and compensate for some losses. Otherwise, it is too unethical and unethical. You should go to the Yun family to argue.
So the topic turned to why Haizi was beaten. It had been more than half a month since Haizi came to treat his injuries. Haizi didn't say why he was beaten, and everyone was too embarrassed to ask further. They only knew that he was beaten like this by his employer.
"Haizi, you have to tell us why. I think your injury will heal in a few months. We have to discuss what to do next and see if we can go back to the Yun family compound."
The uncle wanted to know the reason more, but of course he was more sensible. The uncle also had a very honest character. He felt that there must be a reason why Haizi was beaten, otherwise he would not have been beaten like this. He hoped that Haizi would tell the truth so that he could prepare in advance for the next step.
Haizi didn't want to tell the truth. After all, this was not a glorious thing. The reason was still his own mistake. But when faced with the inquiries from Grandpa Xiao’s family, I had to say that this was very important for what to do after the injury recovered.
"I had a good relationship with his fifth lady, but Master Yun found out and beat me."
"Does his lady have a husband-in-law?"
"Yes. We got married on the 28th of the twelfth lunar month."
"After you get married and she goes her own way, wouldn't it be over if you don't see her again? How about beating someone like this?"
"No, Miss Fifth and I discussed running away together while she is buying her dowry."
"You haven't run away yet? It's not a capital crime for a child to have such thoughts."
"No, we all... made out..."
It was through such questions and answers that Grandpa Xiao and his family learned the truth of the matter. Everyone stopped talking and fell into silence.
