Chapter 8
Qi Ying'er squatted at the gate of her house with her thin and thin body, her little head was looking around, she was muttering something, and the nervous expression on her face that was about to cry made people feel very distressed.Seeing Mrs. Zhuang's figure from afar, he ran over at a trot.

"Grandma, you're finally back." The little guy had a sobbing tone, as if he had just cried.

Just now Xiao Siyun came to play at home and saw his grandpa lying motionless on the bed, turned around and ran away without saying a word, Qi Yinger chased after him without knowing why, Xiao Siyun said that his grandpa was about to become a dead man Yes, people will become ghosts after they die. She is afraid of being captured by ghosts, so she has to go back quickly.

She also said that her grandpa lay in bed like this for a few days and then never woke up again. Her mother said that her grandpa died and became an invisible ghost.

Qi Ying'er was so frightened that she wailed loudly. She didn't dare to go home or go out to play alone, so she could only lie at the door and wait for Mrs. Zhuang to come back.

Mrs. Zhuang had no time to coax him, so she led the doctor directly into the back room.

Qi Ying'er held the old woman's hand tightly, and followed into the house, her small body was always hiding behind her grandmother, never daring to poke her head to see Mr. Qi lying on the bed.

"Old man, old man, wake up quickly, I've called the doctor for you." She lifted the cotton quilt covered with pudding, trying to wake up Master Qi.

As soon as Mr. Qi closed his eyes, he heard someone calling him. His gray brows squirmed slightly, and he opened his eyes. Seeing that it was an old woman, he closed them again, "I don't have an appetite. Go do your work." People are useless, why bother to waste food.

"What are you going to sleep on? The doctor is waiting here." The old woman was angry with him for his strength.

The doctor who was waiting on the side also said, "Old man, if you feel unwell, you must get medical treatment as soon as possible, so as not to miss the best time for treatment."

Hearing a strange man's voice, old man Qi slowly opened his cloudy eyes again, and saw a young man in a light-colored gown standing beside the bed, with a small wooden box hanging on his shoulder, he was indeed a doctor, He sat up slowly with his hands on the edge of the bed.

"I said, you prodigal woman, with the current state of the house, why are you spending money to treat me, an old man?"

Mrs. Zhuang ignored the old man's complaints, took out his bony arm and handed it to the doctor for a pulse, and called Qi Ying'er to move a wooden stool for the doctor to sit on.

The doctor was not in a hurry to check the pulse, but asked the old woman to fetch him a basin of water. After the water came, the doctor sent her and Qi Ying'er out. According to the old woman's description, the old man Qi must have suffered trauma, so he stepped forward He helped Master Qi turn around and lay down on the bed.

"Old man, I want to take off your lower body clothes in order to diagnose the disease. Don't worry about the consultation fee, if you can't pay the credit."

The doctor greeted the old man, afraid that he would refuse the treatment, so he broke the rules of the pharmacy and gave him credit. Seeing that the old man also accepted the treatment by default, he stepped forward to take off the old man's clothes.

On the tailbone of the old man, purple ecchymosis can be clearly seen. The doctor gently pressed the upper part of the bruise with two fingers in a figure-eight shape. The skin surface is very hard and elastic, and there is no finger concave phenomenon. It can be judged that the periosteum is microcracked. No bone was injured, he withdrew his hand, went to the basin to wash his hands, and started dispensing medicine.

"Langzhong, how is the old man's condition?"

"Don't worry, old man, there is nothing serious about the bone injury. You just need to take medicine on time and recuperate for a while to recover."

After the doctor finished speaking, the black ointment in his hand had been adjusted, and he turned around and applied it to the old man's bruised tailbone. The ointment was sticky, and it stuck to the old man's skin.

After the ointment was applied, he dressed the old man again, and then he called Mrs. Zhuang to come in. He explained how to use the prepared medicine, collected the money and left.

Mr. Qi thought that the old lady would pay on credit, but seeing that after she paid the doctor, there was still some silver left in her pocket, so he was puzzled. He hadn't received any work these days, and the family's silver was as early as the Chinese New Year. Just spent it all, where did this old woman get the money, could it be!

He pulled the old woman's skirt, pulled her to the edge of the bed, and asked in a low voice:
"Tell me honestly, did you touch your daughter-in-law's jade pendant?"

Mrs. Zhuang gave him a sideways look, and opened the old man's hand that was holding her skirt: "What do you think of me, this money is not borrowed, it is also stolen, you can rest assured of your wounds, don't waste all the painstaking efforts of your family."

Mr. Qi didn't believe this woman's nonsense, so he stretched out his hand and grabbed her again, "Since it wasn't borrowed or stolen, where did it come from?" Thinking about spending unclear money, can he feel at ease?

Mrs. Zhuang struggled coyly to get rid of him, but she refused to say that Nanmenyue earned the money from carpentry. She was afraid that if the old man knew that Nanmenyue came to work for others regardless of his consent, he would be in pain. I will not use this money even if I die.

The old couple were arguing, almost going to fight.

Qi Ying'er rushed in from outside in a panic, and quickly hid behind the old woman, "Grandma, there is a stranger outside, he said he was my father." Scared.

Mrs. Zhuang panicked when she heard this, and Chu Wenren had already strode into the house before the few pieces of silver in her pocket had time to hide.

"I'm so old, I can't see that you are living a healthy life."

The smile on Chu Wenren's face was very permeating. He glanced at the old man lying prone on the bed, and seeing that he couldn't move, he stretched out his hand without any scruples to snatch the broken silver from the old woman's hand.The old woman refused to let go, so she was pushed to the ground by him.

Qi Ying'er, who was standing by the side, cried out in fright. He rushed forward and grabbed Chu Wenren's arm to bite him, but Chu Wenren kicked him and rolled to the door.

The old man Qi lying on the bed was full of angry veins, but he buried his head and said nothing. He was old, so naturally he couldn't beat Chu Wenren, and now he couldn't even get out of bed, so it was impossible for him to fight Chu Wenren.

"I'm here today, just to borrow the land deed from my family. Don't engage in unnecessary struggle. If you hurt you, you have to hire a doctor. It's not worth it."

Chu Wenren warned viciously that he was going forward to open the locked wooden cabinet. The lock was secure, so he didn't bother looking for the key. He went to the yard to pick up a brick, and went back to the house to fight. hit hard.

Mrs. Zhuang got up to push him away, but he slapped the brick on the wall persistently, her eyes dimmed for a moment, and she passed out after a while.

Without the obstruction of external force, Chu Wenren smashed the copper lock in two or three times, opened the wooden cabinet, picked up the small cloth bag inside, opened it, and confirmed that it contained the title deed of the Qi family, bent the corner of his mouth proudly, and took the cloth bag He put it in his arms and walked away.
