Chapter 73 Sudden Sadness and Joy
Axiu's plan to act like a baby and beg for money was well thought out.He gave himself three reasons.
First and most importantly, he needs money very much now. He needs money to see his legs, and he will also need money to go out in the future, but it is obviously unrealistic for him to save a copper coin. He has to find a shortcut. Now His shortcut is undoubtedly Li Jinzhong, the uncle of the Li family, gold and silver are endless, as long as he is happy, scraping a little from the gold is enough for him to spend his whole life.
Second, he felt that he was becoming more and more dangerous in Li's residence. Although he couldn't provide any specific evidence, he always felt uneasy. He planned to run away as soon as his legs recovered, and went to Chang'an to see the world.
The third reason is that he found it for his self-esteem. Although a man has gold under his knees, the ancients also said that a man is a man who can bend and stretch. A person with great ambitions does not care what he has done on the way to success. How old is he, and he is not yet an adult, even if he relives his childhood by being a demon, it is not too shameful!
So he took a breath, patted his face, and when Li Jinzhong came back and walked to his bed, he immediately hugged Li Jinzhong's waist, and shouted in a flattering wet voice: "Grandpa, it's Chinese New Year! You still don't want to reward me with some red envelopes?"
The man was really taken aback, and then he laughed, and said, "Don't you want to receive a big grace, wait a few days and I..."
"I don't care, I don't care, I don't have any money now, and I feel uncomfortable during the New Year. Others have money but I don't. You have to reward me!"
Li Jinzhong had no choice but to smile helplessly and said, "Don't be rude, get up and talk about it."
Only then did Ah Xiu let go of Li Jinzhong's waist, and stared at a pair of bright eyes: "Chinese New Year, I have no money at all, and I have no money to see the doctor, sir, give me some money, you are so rich , just give me a little bit, a single hair of yours is thicker than my thigh."
Li Jinzhong laughed in a low voice, and sat down by the bed: "Tell me, how much do you want?"
Axiu felt that it would be inappropriate to ask for too much, and it would be a disadvantage to ask for less, so she thought for a while and stretched out three fingers.
Li Jinzhong looked at him with a smile on his face, and said, "Three taels, that's too much. Our family's annual rewards are always two taels of money."
"What three taels, I want 30 taels!" Axiu grabbed Li Jinzhong's shoulder and said, "Besides, why am I like them? No matter how I say it, I'm also your male favorite in name."
"30 taels is too much." The man frowned and said, "Ten taels at most."
This Li Huo turned out to be so stingy that he even had to bargain with him as a slave.He sat down on the bed and stopped talking.
Li Jinzhong seemed to be in a very happy mood, lowering his head almost touching his forehead: "What, are you angry?"
"No! How much do you want to reward? I'm a slave, how can I force my master to reward me?!"
Li Jinzhong stood up with a smile, and warned: "Don't move any more ideas about things in my room. If you steal again, I'll break your other leg too, you know?"
Axiu took a look at Li Jinzhong, and said bitterly, "If you tell me to steal, I won't."
Li Jinzhong laughed again. From the corner of his eye, he saw the servant girl from the third lady's courtyard standing outside the door, and his expression sank, and he asked, "What's the matter?"
The little maid hurriedly walked to the middle of the door with her head down, but she didn't dare to come in, she lowered her head and said, "Third...the third lady has something to say to the uncle, let the uncle go over."
"Do you know what's going on?"
"The servant doesn't know, but just came to invite the uncle."
Li Jinzhong was silent for a while, then stood up, turned to Axiu and said, "I'll be back when I go."
Axiu lay on the bed without even looking at Li Jinzhong, and only then sat up again when she heard Li Jinzhong walk out.Manager Liu came over after a while, put a small cloth bag on the table for him, and said, "This is the ten taels of silver that the uncle asked to pay you."
"Grandpa gave me money, aren't you happy?" Axiu giggled, but she didn't smile on the surface: "You can't help it if you are unhappy, as long as you are nice to me, you can't stop it."
Manager Liu left with a livid face, and then Axiu reached out and took the silver from the table, counted it in twos and ones, and then put it in her bed quilt.As soon as he hid the money, Li Jinzhong came back and asked, "What are you hiding?"
"My money!" Axiu covered the money, turned around and said, "Don't touch my money."
"The ten taels of silver will be gone when the doctor comes next time. What else is there to hide?"
"I was just about to tell you this. I don't want that doctor to see me. He is too expensive and it's useless. I put on the plaster he gave me, and I don't feel it at all. My legs have long since died. It hurts, but it’s just a little uncomfortable, I don’t want to ask him to see it again, I want to find a cheaper doctor to show it to me.”
Li Jinzhong was noncommittal, and said, "Your own money, your own legs, you can figure it out."
But despite what Li Jinzhong said, he invited a good doctor for him the next day. I heard that he was hired from Chang'an at a high price. He is the most famous doctor in the world for treating legs. Stone came here When I was talking to him, I was excited, and said: "This doctor is very famous. I invited him here because of a lot of connections." Maybe he thought that this time the famous doctor came and appointed him to cure Axiu's leg. Tell the truth: "You may not know, but your leg was hurt badly this time. At first, Grandpa didn't care about it. It wasn't until last month that you couldn't walk after two or three months. In a hurry, I secretly invited all the doctors in Luoyang City. But they all said that your leg was not connected properly at that time, and the bones were misaligned, so you couldn't walk."
Axiu was taken aback when she heard that: "Then... what about now?"
"Now? Now you don't have to be afraid. The famous doctor is here. Dr. Sun is the most famous private doctor in Chang'an. Sometimes the palace invites him to see a doctor!"
After Shitou finished speaking, Li Jinzhong led Dr. Sun outside.Dr. Sun looked like he had a lot of beard, and he looked at least 70 to [-] years old.Li Jinzhong introduced him briefly, and said, "Sit down and ask Dr. Sun to look at it for you."
"Oh." Axiu nodded to Dr. Sun, and straightened up her trouser legs.Dr. Sun touched his leg, and asked him whether it hurts, and whether he felt any pain. He told the truth, carefully observing Dr. Sun's face while talking, what Shitou just said gave him a lot Under great psychological pressure, he was afraid that Dr. Sun's complexion would suddenly darken, and then he shook his head and said, "It's too late, the legs can't be healed."
But Dr. Sun is an old doctor after all, and his psychological quality is surprisingly good. He didn't have any expression on his face during the process of seeing a doctor.Axiu looked at him in a daze, then at Li Jinzhong, and couldn't help asking: "Doctor, my leg..."
Doctor Sun glanced at Li Jinzhong, Li Jinzhong stretched out his hand and said, "Doctor Sun, let's talk outside."
A bad premonition came to Axiu's heart immediately, and she secretly said to Shi Shi, "Go out and listen, and tell me the truth when you come back."
Shitou took a look, followed Li Jinzhong and the others out, and ran back after a while, with a sad face, and said, "I...I'm far away, can't you hear what the uncle and the others are saying?"
"Can't you hear me or don't want to say it?" Axiu looked into Shi Shi's eyes, "Don't worry, my mental capacity is not so strong, just tell the truth."
Shi Shi looked at him in embarrassment and said, "I...I really didn't hear."
Axiu was annoyed, and frowned: "You really didn't hear, do you still want me to ask the uncle?"
"Then...then you should ask the uncle, I can't tell."
Axiu's heart sank all of a sudden, her nose sore, and she shouted at the top of her voice, "Li Jinzhong, Li Jinzhong!"
Li Jinzhong returned to the room, but with a smile on his lips, he said, "How dare you call me by my name?"
"Is my leg cured?" Axiu stared into Li Jinzhong's eyes and asked loudly, "Am I going to be limping?"
The smile on Li Jinzhong's face disappeared, but he kept looking at him, and said, "No, the doctor said that he will think about it when he goes back, there is always a way."
Axiu's whole body seemed to have fallen into an ice cave, and she was dumbfounded. She quickly lifted the quilt on her body and crawled under the bed, but his legs were numb and soft, and there was still a little pain when he stepped on the ground. He couldn't help but feel comfortable, so he stood on the ground ruthlessly.Li Jinzhong came forward to help him in a panic, and he fell onto his arm in an instant.
Axiu's face turned pale in panic, she smiled and said: "I... I haven't walked for a long time, and I forgot how to walk my legs. I'll just practice again... I'll practice again... As he spoke, he pushed Li Jinzhong's arm and said, "Let me go, I'll go by myself."
Li Jinzhong hugged him and comforted him: "You can't leave yet, let's take care of him."
"What are you raising? It's been a few months?!" Axiu suddenly became angry, and pushed Li Jinzhong away.His mind went blank at the thought that he might spend the rest of his life crippled.
He had so many thoughts about the future, but none of them were about his lameness. He couldn't imagine what it would be like to be a lame man. He walked with a limp, and people looked at him wherever he went.He can't run or jump anymore, he can only be a slave for the rest of his life, and he can no longer realize his wish to walk around in other places.
"It's not a minor injury. It doesn't mean that it can be cured if it is cured. I asked Dr. Sun to stay in the mansion, and I will ask him to take a look at it in two days."
But Axiu's heart had already fallen into the ice hole, and she was in a daze, as if she was not only sad, but also a little confused and hopeless.
He looked up at Li Jinzhong, his nose was sore, and he cried, saying: "Why am I so unlucky...I haven't hurt anyone..." The more he spoke, the more sad he became, tears fell down.
"Even if you're lame, I'll take care of you." Li Jinzhong looked down at him, and suddenly squatted down in front of the bed, kissed his lips, and said, "Don't cry."
First and most importantly, he needs money very much now. He needs money to see his legs, and he will also need money to go out in the future, but it is obviously unrealistic for him to save a copper coin. He has to find a shortcut. Now His shortcut is undoubtedly Li Jinzhong, the uncle of the Li family, gold and silver are endless, as long as he is happy, scraping a little from the gold is enough for him to spend his whole life.
