...
Dayefang.
He Pingan and others arrived in front of Shi Gang's house.
What appeared in front of He Pingan was a small farmyard. A dilapidated adobe house in the courtyard looked extremely eye-catching among the surrounding red bricks and green tiles.
The earthen wall is full of cracks, and occasionally the cold wind blows through and penetrates into the wall, making a whining sound.
"Is this Shi Gang's family?"
He Pingan turned around and asked.
He had noticed the members of the Shi family before, and the clothes they wore were all made of fine fabrics.
Logically speaking, as their brother, even if Shi Gang died early, he wouldn't have become like this.
"It's here. Shi Gang died early, so his family fell into decline."
Shi Yong's wife looked at the adobe house in front of her, with disgust and disgust on her face, and a hint of urging in her voice: "I said, don't go in, just give us some money and forget about it."
"No, we're already here, why don't we go in and take a look?"
He Ping'an smiled lightly and walked in first with Hong Xifei.
The Shi family and others looked at each other and quickly followed the two of them in.
"mother......"
As soon as the two entered the small courtyard, they heard Shi Zhen's childish crying coming from the house. It was obvious that he had been crying for a long time, and there was a hint of hoarseness in his voice.
"Squeak..."
With a soft sound, He Pingan and Hong Xifei pushed the door open and entered.
Xiao Shizhen wiped the tears on his face and looked back at the two of them warily. When he saw Hong Xifei, he was a little surprised. Then he saw the Shi family and others who were following them and filing in. His expression changed.
"Uncle and aunt, you are here."
Xiao Shizhen stood up, with a determined look on his face, and all the fragile expressions he had before were restrained.
"Um......"
Several members of the Shi family snorted, glanced at Xiao Shizhen disdainfully, and said nothing.
He Ping'an saw all the changes in the expression on Shi Zhen's face, and scanned the surrounding area with his consciousness, but did not find where the leftover medicinal residue from Shi Wu's drink was placed.
On the way here, he had already asked Hong Xifei what the prescription was. He originally wanted to come over to check the remaining medicine dregs to see if the medicine had been replaced, but he didn't find it.
"Shi Zhen, you took your mother to Xiancao Hall for treatment yesterday?"
He Pingan asked.
Xiao Shizhen looked at everyone in the Shi family, and was about to speak, but the sturdy Shi Meng suddenly interrupted: "What's the use of asking these questions? Anyway, his mother died after being treated at your Fairy Cao Hall, so the compensation is... ....”
"Snapped!"
A crisp slap sounded, and He Pingan raised his hand and slapped Shi Meng on the face, knocking the strong Shi Meng to the ground. His rough face suddenly became red and swollen, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
The incident happened suddenly, and everyone in the Shi family was stunned for a few breaths before they came to their senses.
"Why do you hit someone?"
When Shi Meng's wife saw her husband being beaten, she rushed forward and prepared to hug He Pingan's legs. At the same time, she shouted: "Come here, someone has beaten someone to death..."
"Snapped!"
Before the man could fall to He Pingan's side, he was slapped with a big slap by He Pingan and flew directly out of the house, unconscious and unaware of his personnel.
Shi Yong was gearing up and was about to step forward, but when he saw Shi Meng's wife being slapped away, he immediately stopped.
"Noisy!"
After He Ping'an rewarded these two people with their big mouths, he looked sharply at the rest of the Shi family and others, and said coldly: "I will tell you a rule now. When I ask questions, don't interrupt casually."
When the Shi family and others were glanced at by He Pingan, they all felt shuddered and lowered their heads, not daring to look at him.
Seeing the miserable condition of Shi Meng and his wife again, he immediately closed his mouth tightly, for fear of making any sound.
In front of the Xiancao Hall before, He Ping'an was unwilling to take action because if he did, it might affect the good reputation that Hong Xifei had built for the Xiancao Hall over the past few days.
But now that he was here, he no longer had any worries. These people thought that he would not dare to kill him as before, so he had to teach them a lesson.
"Xiao Shizhen, don't worry, my uncle will definitely uphold justice for you."
He Ping'an said warmly, with a hint of Taoist magic in his voice, which calmed down the frightened Shi Zhen.
Seeing He Ping'an take action to restrain Shi Meng and others, Xiao Shizhen's eyes had a glimmer of hope, but when he saw his already cold mother, his eyes immediately dimmed again.
"My mother's death should have nothing to do with Dr. Hong..."
Xiao Shizhen was silent for a moment before telling the truth.
After Shi Zhen's father died, Shi Meng and Shi Yong forcibly divided the family property.
Shi Zhen's family was originally an orphan and a widowed mother. How could they defeat these two people? The family property was basically exploited. If they were not afraid of going too far and the government getting involved, they would not even leave this house to the orphaned and widowed mother. .
Until Shi Zhenniang became seriously ill and had no money for treatment, Xiao Shizhen came to ask for help.
How could these two families care about Shi Zhen's mother and hope that if Shi Zhen's family is dead, they can naturally divide the Shi Zhen family's house.
But it wasn't until the night before yesterday that Shi Yong and Shi Meng suddenly approached Shi Zhen and said that they had found a miracle doctor for him, and they didn't have to pay money, but the distance was a bit far, and they asked him to get up early tomorrow.
Yesterday morning, I thoughtfully found a carriage and put Shi Zhen and his mother on the carriage. They accompanied them until they were near the Xiancao Hall before getting off the carriage.
Let Shi Zhen help his mother into the Xiancao Hall.
He Pingan nodded, this is in line with common sense. Otherwise, if a seven or eight-year-old child feels sorry for his mother, he will burst out with the power of family affection and carry his mother several hundred steps on Thaksin's back.
But if you carry ten miles of land on your back, this is impossible.
Xiao Shi was really just a child, so he didn't have so many twists and turns in his heart. He just thought that his uncles really wanted to help him save his mother.
Hong Xifei, a doctor with a kind heart, naturally couldn't refuse Shi Zhenniang when she saw that she was critically ill.
After prescribing medicine for Shi Zhenniang, Xiao Shizhen took the two pills that his uncles had given him in advance, paid for the medicine, and then left.
After returning home, Xiao Shizhen prepared to cook medicine for his mother. Unexpectedly, Shi Meng and Shi Yong's wives were uncharacteristically enthusiastic. They snatched the medicinal materials from Xiao Shizhen's hands and offered to help him cook medicine.
You know, it usually only takes half an hour to cook medicine, but it took an hour for the two of them to go there.
After returning, the two of them did not let Xiao Shizhen feed the medicine, and directly fed the medicine into Shi Zhenniang's mouth.
Shi Zhen had doubts in his heart at that time, but he did not expect that the two aunts would really be so cruel.
At night, Shi Zhenniang kept complaining that she had a stomachache. No matter how Xiao Shizhen comforted her, it was of no use. Before long, Shi Zhenniang died of pain on the bed.
When he was dying, he held Shi Zhen's little hand tightly with both hands, as if he knew that after he passed away, Xiao Shi Zhen's life would be even more sad...
The finished medicine residue was also taken away by Shi Yong's family and disappeared.
At this point, Xiao Shizhen started sobbing again and again, and even Hong Xifei, who was standing aside and listening, had red eyes and glistening tears.
Although Shi Zhenniang's illness was serious, it was not incurable. Hong Xifei was still happy that she saved a life yesterday, but unexpectedly the patient was completely dead today.
