Chapter 21
"Swallow, are you okay?" Of course Miao Dafu also saw the mess at the fish stall, but he was more worried about whether his sister was injured.

"Brother, I'm fine!"

Seeing that his sister was fine, Miao Dafu turned around and asked the middle-aged man, "Uncle, why did you smash my stall?"

"What are you all doing here?!" The middle-aged man hadn't even opened his mouth when there was a shout from the crowd.

 When the onlookers heard the sound, they automatically backed out of the way.

I saw two eighteen or nineteen-year-old patrolmen walking to Miao Xiaoyan's fish stall, looked at the overturned bucket, and asked, "Who is making trouble here?"

"It's him!" Miao Xiaoyan pointed to the middle-aged man and said to the yamen servant.

"No, brother official, I didn't mean to cause trouble!" Seeing the two yamen servants looking at him, the middle-aged man hurriedly defended himself. He couldn't be caught in jail.

"The child's father—"

At this time, everyone heard a woman's miserable cry again.

"My child, why are you here, where is the child?" The woman approached, and it turned out to be the daughter-in-law of a middle-aged man.

"Father, the child is vomiting blood!" the woman cried while grabbing the middle-aged man's arm.

"What! Vomiting blood?" The middle-aged man's face changed and he exclaimed.

"The child's father, what should we do now?" The woman looked at her man at a loss.

After hearing this, the middle-aged man took out dozens of copper coins from his pocket and handed them to the woman, urging: "Hurry up and get some medicine from the pharmacy, tell the shopkeeper the money you owe and I'll send it to him in two days. "

"Oh, okay, I'll go now." The woman took the money and hurried to the pharmacy on the other street.

"Brother Cha, it's okay, it's okay!" Miao Dafu saw that the middle-aged man was also from a poor family, so he didn't want to embarrass him.

"Are you really all right?" The two yamen servants looked at the middle-aged man suspiciously.

"Big brother, it's really all right!" The middle-aged man also smiled flatteringly.

"Don't make trouble for us!" The two yamen servants left without saying that. They had a lot of places to inspect, and they didn't want to waste time on such a trivial matter.

"Thank you!" After the two yamen servants left, the middle-aged man thanked Miao Dafu and the two. He didn't expect that Miao Dafu and the two would let him go. If they insisted on suing him, he might have been arrested now gone to prison.

"Uncle, I'm really sorry. My sister and I have never sold fish before, so we don't know the price of this fish. It's our mistake. I hope you don't take offense." Li understood the reason of the matter.

"No, no! Brother, please don't say that. Just now I thought that my sick child was in a hurry to get money for medicine, so I was a little impulsive. I hope you don't care about me." The middle-aged man said shyly .

Seeing the middle-aged man apologize, Miao Xiaoyan lost her anger, and said that she was wrong in the first place, so she said to the middle-aged man: "Uncle, let's turn this matter over, and none of us will mention it again."

"Oh, yes, uncle!" Miao Dafu echoed with a smile.

"By the way, uncle, just now you said that your child is sick, what is it?" Miao Xiaoyan asked, the aunt seemed to be vomiting blood just now.

"Hey! My son has been suffering from tuberculosis for a while. During this time, there is no money to buy medicine, so the disease has become more and more serious. Just now my wife said that he vomited blood." The middle-aged man frowned in worry.
