I became the villain's deceased wife
Chapter 3 52 Silver
The Xie family's yard is not big, with only two main rooms and one side room. The bricks and tiles are also broken, and there are several holes on the roof.
There was no way out; the clan refused to take them in. If it weren’t for their ninth uncle Xie Boshong who took pity on them, they wouldn’t have been able to buy such a yard.
Song Tian returned to the east room where she and Xie Yunzhe slept based on her memory, but soon she was in trouble again.
The original owner's stepmother and sister were really cruel. When they saw that she was relying on Xie Yunzhe, they immediately threw her over without even giving her a change of clothes.
Although her clothes were padded and better than Xie Yunzhe's, she was now soaked and had no spare clothes.
Song Tian looked at the empty house with a bit of melancholy.
A cold wind blew, and she shivered with cold and couldn't help sneezing.
"What happened?"
Suddenly a voice was heard, which scared Song Tian.
Looking back, I saw a woman holding on to the door frame and looking inside.
When he saw the woman's face clearly, Song Tian was shocked again.
According to the original owner's memory, this person should be Xie Yunzhe's mother, Liu.
Logically speaking, she was only in her early thirties, but at this moment, Liu looked haggard, with sunken eyes. Although her clothes were not old, they were loose on her body, as if they were on a clothes hanger made of only a piece of wood.
It is hard to imagine that just a few months ago she was a pampered official's wife.
Song Tian calmed down and should have called out "mother", but after opening her mouth, she felt a little awkward:
"Ma'am, I just accidentally fell into the water and my clothes are all wet. Do you have any dry clothes to lend me?"
The original owner made such a fuss that the Xie family must dislike her.
But she had no choice.
Liu leaned against the door frame and coughed twice, her body shaking unconsciously, as if she could faint at any time.
"Why, you can't think straight again?"
Her face was sallow, and she looked very sad, but she still advised:
"I know you were also harmed by someone. You must be unwilling to marry into a family like ours, but you are still young. Only by living can you have hope... cough cough..."
She wanted to say something else, but a sudden dull cough from her chest interrupted her.
Song Tian quickly stepped forward to help her calm down and explained:
"Madam, you are overthinking. I really fell down accidentally this time. Please lend me a set of dry clothes."
If she gets any colder, she'll really catch a cold.
After Liu finished coughing, she saw that what she said did not seem to be false, so she nodded and turned to walk towards the main room.
After taking a set of clean clothes and handing them to Song Tian, Liu asked again:
"Just now I heard a commotion outside, someone fell into the water? Who was it?"
As he said this, he looked outside.
"Where are Yunzhe and Haoer? Why don't I see them?"
Song Tian suddenly became a little nervous.
Mrs. Liu was seriously ill, and she probably didn't hear much about what happened outside. If she knew that it was her youngest son who was in trouble, she would be very worried.
"Oh, someone did fall into the water. Xie Yun...my husband and Hao'er have gone to help. I'll go see what's going on."
She changed her clothes quickly, wrapped the wound on her head with a piece of cloth, and hurried out.
"Madam, please have a good rest at home. I will come back to let you know when the situation changes."
Liu's health was indeed not very good, and she felt a little tired after talking for a while.
Hearing this, he waved his hand and let her do as she pleased.
Song Tian felt distressed when she saw how seriously ill she was.
Somehow, Liu's condition always reminded her of her grandmother, who depended on her for everything.
She is a left-behind child and was raised by her grandmother.
Later, while she was working hard outside, her grandmother fell seriously ill.
When she returned to her hometown to take care of her grandmother, she was so listless and weak that she would fall into a deep sleep before she could say a few words.
Thinking of this, Song Tian turned around, helped Liu lie down on the bed, and covered her with a quilt.
"Madam, you must take good care of yourself. Your husband and Hao'er are counting on you. You must not let them down!"
Speaking of Haoer, Song Tian started to worry again.
The child was so young and suffered such an injury. I wonder how he is doing now.
"I'll be back as soon as I go."
Thinking about it, she said something and left in a hurry.
Lying on the bed, Liu stared at the broken roof above her head, tears streaming down her cheeks unconsciously.
Yes, although the master is gone, the children are still young, she can't just collapse like this!
Thinking of this, she struggled to get up and went to the kitchen to boil some water and cook some food.
She was too selfish before. When she heard the news that the master had been beheaded, she was heartbroken and too sick to get up. She didn't know how Yunzhe made it all the way from the capital to here?
……
The original owner's maiden family was also from this town. She was quite familiar with the layout of Xiangyang Town, and soon she found the clinic that Xie Yunzhe and his brother went to. The plaque at the door read "Jishengtang".
Before I even entered, I heard Xie Yunzhe getting angry inside:
“You are doctors, saving the dying and healing the wounded is your duty.
My brother is in such a critical condition, but you just let him die for a few taels of silver. Where is your conscience? "
Is this because they don’t want to treat you?
Song Tian hurried in and heard the clinic's owner's impatient tone:
"It's true that we can save the dying and heal the wounded, but doctors are not living Buddhas. They also need clothes to wear and food to eat. If everyone treats patients like you and doesn't pay, then we will all starve to death!"
As he said this, he chased people away with a feather duster:
"Go away, if you don't have money, don't make trouble here and affect my business."
Xie Yunzhe was a popular young master of an official family a few months ago. How could he endure such humiliation? What's more, his brother's life was hanging by a thread.
He immediately snatched the feather duster from the shopkeeper's hand and pointed it at his nose like a sword:
"If you don't save me today, I'll smash your shop!"
Human life is at stake, but this guy only cares about a few ounces of yellow and white dirty things. It's outrageous!
The shopkeeper was no pushover. He saw that this man was going to cause trouble, so he waved his hand to the shop assistants:
"I have been practicing medicine for so many years, but I have never seen a person as arrogant as you. Come on, catch him and throw him out!"
Several waiters were originally standing nearby, and now that the shopkeeper had spoken, they rushed forward without saying a word to capture Xie Yunzhe, and some even reached out to hug Hao'er who was seriously injured and unconscious.
Song Tian quickly stepped forward to stop him, and apologized to the shopkeeper with a guilty look on his face:
"I'm sorry, boss, he has been reading so much that he has become stupid. Please don't bother with him."
As he spoke, he looked down at Xie Yunhao lying on the counter, and his eyes began to turn red:
"He is also worried about my brother. He is such a young child, and he has suffered such an unexpected disaster. If he really loses his life because of this, how can we face our parents in the underworld!"
The shopkeeper thought they were a pair of siblings who had lost their father at a young age.
Although he was used to seeing life and death, he still had some compassion in his heart. He sighed and waved his hand to let the guy holding the child leave.
"I didn't say I wouldn't save him, but for an injury like this, it would take the best hemostatic medicine to be effective. I asked for five taels of silver, but this young man wanted to smash my shop!"
Song Tian was stunned.
Five taels of silver!
The Xie family was confiscated and nothing was left. Later, they borrowed some money from Uncle Nine to buy a house. Now, they are afraid that they can't even come up with five taels, let alone five cents.
But looking down at Hao'er lying on the table, it's no wonder that Xie Yunzhe got angry. He couldn't just let him die in vain just for five taels of silver.
Song Tian felt around anxiously and suddenly had an idea.
Said to the shopkeeper:
"Please help my brother treat his injuries first, I will send you the money later!"
