The forty-fifth chapter epidemic

Now, there are still scars underground in Lu Haotian's eye socket.                                                       

Ergouzi's illness is not bad. In fact, it's just a serious cold. However, the cold is a bit evil. No medicine is good. The family has no money, so they have to stand up. Generally, they say that the cold will be cured after a week? But this child has had a fever for half a month, and his eyes are getting worse and worse, and he can't speak in the end.

In the end, my parents could only come to Mr. Dong with Ergouzi in the middle of the night. Mr. Dong had some tricks, so he didn't want to do anything, but the old man grew up in the mountains and knew a lot of earthworks in the mountains. He was kind-hearted and asked him for anything whenever he could do it. As long as he could, he would never refuse. Therefore, the Dong family has its current prestige. Now, Wushuang is the enemy's subordinates, and the neighbors still respond to their requests.

"Damei, why did this child... come here?" Mr. Dong frowned. It's been a lot of days. Ergouzi was burning with unconsciousness and refused to agree to his barking. His breathing was getting weaker and weaker.

"Uncle Dong, I have no advice either. I have been to the big hospitals nearby, but no doctor can tell what Ergou is doing? It's said that it will be fine immediately after taking medicine. You've been almost half a month old and I've been tonight just now... Please, Uncle Dong, we are all from neighbors, please save this child." Damei is the nickname of Ergouzi's mother. Even Damei was raised by Master Dong. This child is actually no different from his own grandson.

Mr. Dong opened Ergou's eyelids, and his eyes were all over. He sighed. It was too late, and this could not be blamed for being a mother. Who would joke about his son's life? He is not a doctor. He must be sent to the hospital directly if he is sick, but since he can't ignore it. But how can he care? If he is unable to see, he may even die in his house.

"No need to say anything, put it on my kang. Ergou, go and make a bowl of ginger soup for Ergou!" Mr. Dong ordered.

"Brother, do you think about it again?" How sharp is Ma Erye? He was just a little bitch. What happened to Ergouzi at first sight? This child was defeated by the epidemic. To put it bluntly, he came to collect debts in his previous life. His parents were raised at six years old, so he paid off his debts. After paying them off, he left.

This child is so obscene, what do you think of dying in the Dong family? It’s so hard to say.

"I'm all from neighbors, so I can't... It's okay, I know it." Mr. Dong said.

Wushuang happened to be sitting in the inner room doing homework at that time. When he heard that his friend was sick, he rushed out and was about to be pushed in by Mr. Dong. He said he would go to bed quickly and not come out tonight.

Wushuang is close to his grandparents and grandparents. He grew up in the Dong family compound since he was a child. He was unwilling to go home when he was home. The Dong family compound was lively and he could see everything new every day.

Mr. Ma touched the child's pulse and was very weak. He said, "Brother, I'm afraid it's not easy to deal with. It's past ten o'clock now, and there are still two hours left. It's okay if you can find a magic pill. Otherwise, you will definitely not be able to survive midnight. The midnight bell will be the time when the ghost messenger catches his soul."

"Go and take out the old ginseng from Sihai." Ma Sihai would send people to Changchun every year to send some mountain goods to his senior brother. This old ginseng is extremely precious and has been a practice for hundreds of years. He searched in the mountains for four or five years before he caught it. Most people can drink a sip of such ginseng soup to make life.

"Brother? You... this..." Mr. Ma felt sorry for him. That was a priceless treasure. Rich people could not buy it for him no matter how much money they cost. They would still keep it for Mr. Dong to replenish his body. Although they are all neighbors, they still can't bear to leave it! "Brother, I'm afraid that even that old ginseng will be useless. Look, this child is..."

"I know, I know, you can stew it, and the ghost messenger will leave and feed him a drink!"

"What should I do? You? Ghost Crew? You are crazy? No! How can this work? This will damage your life! It would be fine if the Ghost Crew gives you face, but if they are not happy tonight, the consequences will be unimaginable!"

"I have my own opinions in my heart. Do what I said, go!" Mr. Dong said the order, and Mr. Ma had no choice but to do so.

As a father and mother, they kept wiping their son's body with towels. They knew in their hearts that Ergouzi had little chance of survival. Just treat it as giving his son the last journey.

"You two will go home now! Bring incense and worship in front of your ancestor tablet. Tomorrow, the chicken will crow in the morning and then come to pick up Ergouzi. I will try my best. If he can survive tonight, it will be easier."

Damei was very grateful. Her family had no money and had been selling her son's illness these days. The couple had no choice but to kneel down and kowtow to Mr. Dong.

"You don't have to kneel down to me. I don't dare to make a promise if I can save it."

"Uncle Dong, tell the truth to us couple, how great is the chance?" Ergouzi's father asked him.

Mr. Dong frowned, thought for a long time, and said deeply: "Go, God is not a blind man, this child has his own life."

This is how you can understand it. The possibility is very low. My parents wiped their tears and retreated. Do you still have to go back to burn incense for our ancestors? It’s better to go to the birthday shop in advance and prepare for Ergouzi’s funeral! What a white-haired man who sends a black-haired man!

At around eleven o'clock, Mr. Ma helped Ergouzi up and poured ginger soup into his stomach, but he spit it out after taking a small sip.

Mr. Ma shook his head. "Brother, it's not that I told you, look at it, no, it's because this child has finished his life."

"I know, let it go, I have another trick to try here

Mr. Dong opened the drawer and there was an old lunch box. The lunch boxes used to be made of aluminum, and the aluminum did not rust. Over the years, the surface was covered with aluminum dirt. There was also a five-pointed star in the middle of the lunch box. It was the brothers of Changshengshan who made contributions to blocking the Japanese army in the early years and were rewarded by the superiors.

He opened the lunch box with trembling hands, which contained a box of Republic of China notes issued by the People's Bank of China in 1935. I dare not take this thing out now, and I will arrest you immediately as long as I show up.

The box inside is gradually filled with banknotes worth thousands of yuan. Although the banknotes are worthless and cannot be circulated now, those who could have so many properties back then were rich. They were all enough for the military capital of ten thousand troops for half a year.

"Brother, what are you going to do?" Mr. Ma was puzzled.

"Haha... it's useless to keep this old money, just treat it as buying life for Ergouzi."
