Fields of Gold

Chapter 272 Waiting for Death

“A while ago, your grandfather and Yu Dashan went out to sea and encountered a storm. Yu Dashan was caught in the sea. In order to save Yu Dashan, your grandfather choked a few drops and came back and began to have a fever and cough. It's been more than half a month since the break.” Yu Hailiu was somewhat worried about the tunnel.

Yu Hang snorted coldly, "Grandpa's medical book is not a major illness. It must be the one Zhang Shi couldn't afford to spend money on Grandpa's medical treatment. It was so dragging. Last time, Dad shouldn't have given her ten taels of silver, but asked the doctor to treat Grandpa. That silver, I'm sure the meatloaf beats the dog! ”

In the past year, Zhang's style of doorstepping has intensified. The staple food is coarse cake with no fine grain, and it doesn't matter if it's enough, it's just green vegetables grown in the garden and you don't want to put oil in it. Li Shi's son can earn money from the war. He made several arguments to split up his family. After hearing that he had to leave the house, and now the house can no longer live, he stopped.

However, she, with her big mouth, did not make up enough mother-in-law Zhang in the village. She said that mother-in-law was biased towards her youngest son, and that all the money earned by the family was subsidized for her youngest son studying in the capital. She also said that her mother-in-law had treated their family harshly, and that her son was fifteen years old, so she didn't give Zhang Luo a kiss. This is to drain the family's blood and feed the bottomless hole in Yubo!

This time back, Yu Xiaograss took three roasted ducks. One more in the family will definitely not be enough to eat. Later, when Uncle San goes back, let him take another one back. The roasted duck is five or six taels of silver. If you take it to see your grandfather, you won't be able to eat it in your family's mouth. Maybe the Zhang family will trade it for silver!

Yu Xiaograss bought a fat hen and fifty eggs from Zhou's next door house, accompanied by Big Brother Yuhang to visit Grandpa.

Push open the old wooden door, nobody in the yard, quietly. Uncle studied in the capital city, Auntie and Doudou lived in the town's mother's house. After her marriage, the entire house was occupied only by Grandpa, Zhang and Yu Dashan families.

At this time, Yu Dashan should have returned from the sea, squatting at the fish market at the pier to sell fish. Lee was lazy and afraid to work. He didn't know where to chew his tongue. In order to earn more silver for his youngest son to go to school, the Zhang family took an iron shovel and went to the beach to dig the sausage while the tide was regressing. There's no more noise in the whole house except for the half-sized pigs who are starving in their circles.

Suddenly, a violent cough appeared in the western house where the Yuhai family lived. The cough went on and on, as if to cough his lungs out, causing him to worry that the next second he would pass out because he couldn't breathe.

“Grandpa?” The brothers and sisters glanced at each other and rushed towards the west house. Perhaps it is because the West Rooms have not been inhabited for a long time that they appear to be even more shattered. The straw on the roof is sparse and sparse. I don't know how long it hasn't been repaired. If it rains, it will definitely rain outside in the rain.

Since the Yuhai family moved out, the West House has been idle as a grocery room. How did Grandpa get to live in the West Room?

Pushing open the shaky door of the western house, the darkness inside made it difficult for the two brothers and sisters to see what was inside for a moment. After a while, I saw the familiar broken kang, lying in a thin, woody figure, tickling, coughing for another distance.

“Grandpa!” Yu Xiaograss put down what he was carrying, rushed into the house, gently held the old man up and patted him on the back to make him feel better.

The smell in the house is disgusting, intense and smelly, emanating from the face of the dead grandfather, combined with the smell from the pig circle next to him, makes it intolerable to vomit dry.

The cough finally stopped, and the old man pushed Yu Xiaograss away. “Xiaograss, stay away from Grandpa. They all said Grandpa was sick and infectious. Get your brothers and sisters out of here and stay out of sickness. ”

Yu Xiaoxue saw Grandpa's pants and his clothes were covered with diapers and sweat stains, which obviously hadn't changed in a long time. Looking at Grandpa lying helplessly in bed, her nose was slightly sour and she held tears against Yu Channel: “Brother, go find Grandpa a clean dress to change. I'll burn the water and wipe Grandpa's body. ”

“No, you guys go back! Grandpa, there's no cure for this disease, hurry up, don't get sick, this disease can't be cured!!” The old man was desperate to sit up, but his skinny arm was powerless, and he lay on his bed and gasped.

Yu Xiaograss took a pulse for him, it was not a disease at all, it was pneumonia caused by high fever. She estimated that her grandfather had a fever when he came back from the sea, not on his mind, and slowly dragged him into pneumonia. The Zhang family didn't want to ask the doctor to give him some herbal medicine, so the illness would be so serious.

“Grandpa, who says you're sick?” Yu Xiaoxue saw that Grandpa's lips were dry and the water tank at the end of the bed was empty. Grandpa has a fever and doesn't even drink his saliva. No wonder he has pneumonia!

Yu Xiaograss boiled a pot of boiling water, scooped out a cup to cool it down, added a drop of spirit stone liquid, and fed Grandpa to drink. The old man hasn't had a sip of water for two days. He thinks the boiling water is like ganlin, moisturizing his dry body.

At first, the Zhang family would bring him food and water. Later, he coughed badly and bled the other day. He was a little scared. Her ex-husband had a family in the village. All men got was lungs, infected the whole family, and there was no one left to die.

Fearing that the old man's illness would pass on to her, Zhang asked his eldest son to carry him to the west room. People who usually send a meal and water cover their mouths and noses with a towel. I can't stand the sickness of the old man for the last two days. I think it's only been two days. I can't even give him food or water. Only the old man lay helplessly in a western house waiting to die.

Yu Xiaocao dipped the well's cool water in a towel and wiped his forehead, neck and armpits to help him cool down physically. The old man is in a hurry! When he is old, he dies. His little granddaughter is as old as flowers, and he has the ability to do it again. He can't be involved with the dying man! But whatever he says, Yu Xiaograss is inactive.

The old man said it was fake not to move. Unfortunately, Zhang's cold days, Yu Dashan's ruthlessness, he sees it in his eyes, it hurts in his heart.

Yu Dashan was only two years older than Yu Hai. When he came here, he looked like he was only seven or eight years old. He never took Yu Dashan as an outsider. With the sea and the colorful phoenix, there were Yu Dashan, who were never biased. But after all, he is not his own. He still falls ill because he saved Yu Dashan. But when he was seriously ill, he didn't even show his face. After all these years, he had a white eye wolf!

And the Zhang clan, a couple for decades, he was ill and ignored anything. Still in his western house, he waited for him to swallow his breath sooner so as to save a man's rations. The saying goes, "One day couples Baijin, Zhang's practice is no different than murdering their loved ones. How chilling!" If he's lucky enough not to die this time, he won't be able to pass up with the hard-hearted Zhang family. Don't let that poisonous woman hurt you in your sleep!

In the last few days, the old man always dreamt of his former husband and wife. Payback! He knew that his ex-wife had been murdered by the Zhang clan, but turned a blind eye for the child's reputation, and now it was his turn. If he could find his ex-wife, he would confess to her. He didn't take care of his two children. He deserved to die!

“Brother, what took you so long?” Yuhang came in with a familiar dress, and Yu Xiaograss asked with some surprise.

Yuhang glanced at Grandpa and sighed. "Grandpa's clothes are all piled up in the corner of the yard, no one helped wash them, nothing in the box is clean. I ran home and brought my father's clothes. ”

The old man sighed deeply. It was a pleasure for him to die sooner. Why wash the clothes of the dead man?

Yuhang showered the old man, Yu Xiaograss killed the hen, stewed the soup, and prepared to make porridge for Grandpa. The Zhang clan is really harsh. The man is sick. He won't even drink a sip if he doesn't see a doctor!

When Zhang returned, he saw the smoke in his kitchen from afar. Thought the Lazy Lady of the Lee Clan was cooking her own meal and flew home with her little feet. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Yu Xiaograss serve a bowl of chicken porridge and looked at her indifferently, entering the west room.

Smelling the smell of chicken soup in the air, Zhang Shi patted his thigh: “My chicken!!” I hurried into the chicken circle and placed the number of chickens in a fine place twice, and found that there was a lot of chickens before relieving myself heavily.

Then he remembered something, ran into the kitchen, found himself hiding the basket of white rice passive, took it off, found that the rice was missing, was about to slap his leg cursing. She suddenly remembers that Yu Xiaoxue is not used to her, and she still has the handle in her hand!

Zhang placed the basket heavily on the stove table. When she saw that half the chickens were still in the pan, she took a pottery can and filled it with chicken and chicken soup. Bring the chicken soup to the beans tomorrow when you're going to town to see your grandson.

After hiding the chicken soup, Zhang arrived at the west door, the old man changed his clothes and the kang was also cleaned up. Yu Xiaograss is holding a bowl and feeding her grandfather.

She covered her mouth and nose with her hands and said strangely: "Don't blame me for not reminding you. Your grandfather was suffering from a disease that could not be cured. Go back quickly, don't forget to take a bath with Asakusa, and use boiling water to burn your clothes several times..."

Yu Xiaoxue handed Yuhang a bowl of porridge, stood up and walked to Zhang's face and looked at her coldly: “How do you know my grandfather was ill? Did you get him a doctor? You're not a doctor. What makes you say that? ”

Zhang Shi was deterred by her momentum. She took two steps backwards. Her lips shivered a few times before she kowtowed to the tunnel: “My former neighbor in the estate, the family died of illness. Symptoms like your grandfather's, cough first, then hemorrhage, can't get up in bed! It's not that I can't afford not to see your grandfather. Sickness is incurable, and spending more money is blind. Save it for my son to read! ”
