Han Xiaotian went to the kitchen to light the stove, poured some oil on a piece of wood, took it to the east room and fixed it to the side of the bed, and boiled some hot water, and asked Gu Xiuyuan to wipe Gu Qitai's body to cool down, and then ran out to find Gu Qifu borrowed a carriage.

There is no doctor in the village at all, if you want to invite a doctor, you can only go to the county town to invite a doctor. He banged on the door of Gu Qitai's house, but his heart became more and more anxious.

Only he knew that Gu Qitai relaxed in his heart after his only son was found, and he also relaxed the breath he had been holding on with his thoughts before, and died within two days.

In the past, he knew the ending, and because it was not his own business, he didn't think of forcing it. Now that he got along with him for a few days, he found the figure of his father in Gu Qitai. No one does not desire to be cared for and loved by others, even if he is an adult , not to mention, he has changed his name to calling him father.

When Gu Qifu kicked and pulled the shoes to open the door for him, he rushed in and ran towards the cowshed.

"Who?" Gu Qifu was startled, he was also careless, and opened the door without asking, only to see a black shadow flashing past, running towards the cowshed.

"Uncle Wu, my father has a fever. I'll borrow your ox cart and go to the county to invite a doctor." Han Xiaotian started driving the ox cart without waiting for Gu Qifu to agree.

"Why do you have a fever? Isn't it okay during the day? You go quickly, don't worry about the house, I'll go and have a look."

"Okay, thank you Uncle Wu."

"You child, why are you being polite at this time." Then he shouted into the room: "His mother, his third uncle is sick, I'll go and see him."

After saying that, he left the house with Han Xiaotian, and the two parted ways at the entrance of the village. Gu Qifu entered Gu Qitai's house, and Han Xiaotian drove an ox cart to the county town alone. Driving is to ask the doctor.

The moon hangs in the sky, casting a pale light, illuminating the road in the dark night, but Han Xiaotian felt that it was dark. When he called out that father, he pinned his thoughts on his parents on Gu Qitai, but this With Gu Qitai's departure, the sustenance of his identity will disappear into nothingness, and he will have to fight for his life alone, no, there is another person, there is another person.

He lay his body on his back on the car, looking at the moon above his head, it was never round because of people's wishes, and it was never lacking because of people's resentment, it just hung in the sky so coldly, according to its The orbit turns round and round.

"Cut," Han Xiaotian slammed his whip into the air, making a crisp "pop" sound. With this kind of time here to hurt the spring and autumn, it's better to drive the car and let the cow run faster.

At this time, the clinic was closed long ago, so he had to knock on the door, and finally asked to open the door. When people heard that they were going to the countryside for a visit, they were reluctant, not to mention Lu Yuan, and the consultation fee was small, Han Xiaotian was quite eloquent. After a lot of hard work, I finally asked for it.

When Han Xiaotian rushed back with the doctor who was about to fall apart, and saw Gu Xiuyuan and Gu Qifu hugging Gu Qitai, one calling him father, and the other pinching him, his heart suddenly became cold: "What's wrong, doctor, take a quick look." .”

Seeing this scene, the doctor realized that it must have been a waste of time. He put two fingers of his right hand on Gu Qitai's pulse gate and counted, then poked his forehead, stood up straight, and pointed at the three people who were looking at him eagerly Slowly shook his head.

"Let's prepare for the funeral." After the doctor finished speaking, he put the pulse pillow into the medicine box, not even preparing the prescription.

"No, no, dad is fine today." Gu Xiuyuan knelt down beside the bed and muttered to himself, but two lines of tears filled his eyes.

Han Xiaotian looked at him with a particularly blocked heart. The child who had been in high spirits before the evening became an orphan in an instant. The reality was falling in front of him, and he was not ready to bear it.

"Doctor, please show me again, or you can prescribe a prescription, the children can't bear it." Gu Qifu also wiped his tears and placed his hope on the doctor.

The doctor has practiced medicine for more than 20 years, and he is used to seeing life and death. He has no profile of this kind of scene: "The doctor is sick, but he can't cure him. I have a dose of antipyretic, which is a medicine for tigers and wolves. After taking it, it takes only a quarter of an hour. It can reduce the fever and make him wake up, but..."

"But what."

"The effect of the medicine is only half an hour, and after that, the person will go." He took out a small porcelain bottle from the medicine box, poured out a pill, and looked at Han Xiaotian and the others asking, "Do you need it?"

Gu Qitai and Han Xiaotian looked at each other, and turned their attention to Gu Xiuyuan, neither of them had the qualifications to decide, and those who were qualified were so small.

"Xiaoyuan." Han Xiaotian felt that he was like that cruel killer now, stabbing a knife into Gu Xiuyuan's heart, and still wanting to stir it up.

"Aren't you going to eat?" Gu Xiuyuan calmed down at this moment, and asked coldly.

"If you don't eat, maybe you can survive for a day or two, but you must not wake up, so let's go." The doctor said.The predecessors who developed this medicine at the beginning were to deal with this situation. Instead of letting the patient die in a daze, it is better to wake up, explain what should be explained, and fulfill the wish that should be fulfilled.

"Bring it here." Gu Xiuyuan stretched out his hand and said.

Han Xiaotian took the Xiaoxiao pill from the doctor's hand and put it in Gu Xiuyuan's hand.

"Xiaoyuan, you..." He didn't know how to comfort him, so he just shut up.

"I'm going to accompany dad on this last journey, you all go out." Gu Xiuyuan turned his head and didn't look at the rest of the people.

Han Xiaotian and Gu Qifu had no choice but to lead the doctor out, and now no one is in the mood to send the doctor back, Han Xiaotian arranged for him to sleep in the west room, he and Gu Qifu waited in the living room, neither of them sat down, they stood at the door of the east room, Waiting for the last moment to come.

The medicine was indeed effective, and after a while, Gu Qitai woke up slowly, in a trance for a while, only to find Gu Xiuyuan kneeling on the bedside and weeping silently: "Xiaoyuan, dad is leaving."

"father."

"Listen to me, I know about the bond, you have all kinds of reluctance, but Xiaotian is a good boy, as long as you treat him sincerely, he will not deceive you, at least this is what dad can confirm. "

"The boy knows."

"The only thing is, you have to promise father, don't go to the capital before you have the ability to protect yourself, it's too dangerous for you."

"Yes."

"Remember that little wooden box that Dad had?"

"remember."

"There are two jade pendants inside, the dragon and phoenix are brought by your mother for you, and the double dragons are given to father by that person, you keep them yourself."

"Yes." Gu Xiuyuan broke down in tears and replied.

"Call Xiaotian here." Gu Qitai stared at the top of the bed with his eyes open, tears dripping down his ears onto the pillow, even if he was reluctant, he had no choice but to let it go, he wondered if that person heard the news of his death, and would do it for him Distracted?

"Father, you called me." As soon as Han Xiaotian came over, he sat on the edge of the bed and held Gu Qitai's hand.

Gu Qitai clenched his palms tightly with all his strength, "Xiaotian, take care of Xiaoyuan on behalf of father."

"Yes, I will."

"Under the pillow."

"what?"

"Under the pillow, there is the gift money I received today and what I left before. It should be enough for a while. I will take care of my funeral."

"Father!" Gu Xiuyuan heard the word funeral, and the emotions he had accumulated all night burst out, and he burst into tears while hugging Gu Qitai.

Gu Qitai moved his hand to the top of his head with difficulty, rubbed it lightly twice, then stopped moving, then suddenly fell on the bed, making a loud noise.

"father!"

"father!"

Han Xiaotian hugged Gu Xiuyuan and let him cry and fight in his arms.

As soon as Gu Qifu outside the door heard the movement, he knew that he was going to die, so he hurried in, because Gu Xiuyuan had been wiping Gu Qitai's body before, so he didn't need to wipe his body now, and asked Han Xiaotian to change his clothes, otherwise his body would become stiff later. Can't change it.

Han Xiaotian had no choice but to put Gu Xiuyuan next to the bed, find a clean suit from the bedside cabinet, and Gu Qifu and Gu Qitai changed into it.

"I'll ring the bell, you look at Xiaoyuan." Gu Qifu told Han Xiaotian.

According to the village custom of Gujia Village, as long as someone dies, no matter what time it is, one must immediately ring the bell and tell everyone in the village, and then someone will come to help and arrange the funeral together.

The clock was in the middle of the village, Han Xiaotian had never seen it, so he had to let Gu Qifu go.

After a while, the bell of "Dang, Dang" sounded. The sound of the bell was long and deep, telling the parting of life and death.

After being woken up by Han Xiaotian, the fifth aunt hadn't fallen asleep. Now that she heard the bell, she immediately sat up and put on her clothes in a hurry. Inform the uncle and others, and she rushed to Gu Qitai's house.

On the road, I met a person who heard the bell. I only knew that he was dead, but I didn’t know who it was. "Who is gone?"

"do not know."

"Go to the big clock and ask."

"No need to go, it's the third brother, let's go there quickly." Fifth Aunt stopped the people who wanted to leave the village and said.

"Third brother?"

"Isn't it alright today?"

"Back to the light."

"No wonder you are so anxious to make a brotherhood with Xiaoyuan."

"Poor fate."

"Yes, but why didn't he say he wanted to go back to the school field?"

"You said why, you thought they were all the same as you, third brother is righteous, and he will treat Xiao Yuan better in the future."

"What's wrong with me, shouldn't I just ask?"

"Okay, don't talk about it, I don't know how those two children are doing yet, Fifth Sister-in-law said nothing, and she will help everyone who can help in the future. If anyone treats these two children badly, the first one in our family who is not good Let go."

"Sister-in-law Wu said that I will be the first to let you go."

"Me too!"

Seeing the clansmen who agreed one after another, Fifth Aunt felt relieved, and finally she did not forget her roots.

When they arrived at Gu Qitai's house, several people began to decorate the mourning hall. The fifth sister-in-law sent people to buy things like white cloth and ghost paper, and then went into the room to take a look at Gu Qitai and sighed.

This person had a hard life since he was a child, but fortunately he enjoyed the blessings of being an official, but at the end of the day, he got sick and spent his money, and left poor, leaving only one child to suffer in this world, man!
