MTL - Call Me Daddy-Chapter 38 , Foolish and filial man in Fu Baowen (3)

"How did you get hurt so badly!"

When going out during the day, Su Youtian thought that the second child was just exposed to the rain and caught the wind and cold. That bruised and swollen calf was probably useless.

At this moment, where did he still remember his previous dissatisfaction with his own brother, all he could do was worry.

Su Youtian knew that the only use of the second child in this family was to work. If his legs were crippled, the old woman would definitely try her best to drive the second child out, and their father, now that he had a scholar son, would not care The life and death of the sons born to their two former daughters-in-law, especially the second child, has no sense of existence, and there is only one daughter under his knees. Li's attitude is a bit tougher, and his father will not confront Li for this son. .

"It's all like this, you don't say a word, second child, second child!"

Su Youtian's face was ashen, and he hated this cowardly and honest brother.

"You wait, I'll call Dad over."

He still had a glimmer of hope in his heart, after all, he was his own father, how could he watch his own son become disabled?

Saying that, Su Youtian couldn't bear to look at the second child's injured leg, clenched his fists and stormed out of the second room's room.

Ever since Su Youtian entered the room, Su Aobai has been observing all his subtle expressions and movements. This big brother seems to be different from the impression left on him by the original body's memory.

"father!"

Su Youtian held back his anger and ran to the yard, and yelled at his father, who was drinking the hot soup that the old woman handed him, with forbearance in his tone.

"Come and see the second child, he hurt his leg when repairing the tile roof yesterday, and he doesn't look very good now."

With that said, Su Youtian couldn't help but glanced at his stepmother from the corner of his eye.

Does the other party know about the injury of the second child?

It may be because of the gaps over the years that Su Youtian couldn't help but use the darkest thoughts to speculate on Li's behavior. When they went to work in the field in the morning, there were only a few girls and Li at home. , Mrs. Li said that she was going to pick some herbs for the second brother to make medicinal soup. Didn't Mrs. Li see the injured leg of the second child?

Su Youtian felt that if the treatment was timely enough at that time, the second child's legs would not be as they are now. Could it be that the old woman saw that her son had passed the examination as a scholar, and felt that the family no longer needed the second child who could only work? Scalper, want to take the opportunity to split the second child?

Does this mean that their eldest house will soon be too big for the old woman?

A lot of thoughts flashed through Su Youtian's mind. He had to make plans for his small family earlier. He really waited for the old woman to make a move, and everything would be passive.

"Is your leg hurt?"

Su Kuishan looked at his daughter-in-law beside him in surprise.

"Did the second brother hurt his leg? I don't know. He was in a daze with fever. I worked so hard to gather herbs from the mountains and boiled medicine soup for him, but he vomited it all. I saw him wake up." , I thought the fever was over, so I was busy preparing lunch for you, what about the leg injury? The second child didn't say anything, I, my stepmother, don't feel ashamed to check the second child's body."

Mrs. Li frowned, looking at the face of the boss, the second brother's injury seems to be a bit serious, even on his leg, won't he become crippled in the future, right?

The old couple and other people in the yard rushed to the room of the second bedroom.

As soon as they entered the room, both Su Kuishan and Li Shi were taken aback by Su Aobai's black and purple injured leg exposed to the air, which was far more serious than they imagined.

"Boss, go and invite Doctor Li!"

This time, Su Kuishan's attitude was much tougher. Su Youtian didn't wait for his stepmother to stop him, and quickly ran out of the yard after responding.

Mrs. Li opened her mouth, but seeing the old man's tense face, she finally took back the blocking words.

The second child's injury is indeed a bit serious, if I forcefully stop me from asking for a doctor, I'm afraid my husband will create a gap for me, anyway, the half-dead man on the kang is the old man's own son.

"Second brother, why didn't you tell me about the injury to your leg last night!"

Mrs. Su Li chose to strike first, but it wasn't her stepmother who was mean and didn't let him see a doctor, which dragged the injury down like this.

"I…"

Su Aobai's face turned pale in an instant, his eyes dodged cowardly, his lips moved slightly, and he was like an angry original image.

"When I was sick... Mother... I dare not say."

He said vaguely, obviously he didn't explain anything clearly, but he said everything.

In the past, no matter who was sick between him and his daughter and second mother, the old woman would answer alone, endure it for a while, who in the countryside didn't survive like this, and even asked the doctor, bah, what kind of golden nobleman did she think she was.

I couldn't stand it anymore, so I waited until the work was done, went to the mountain to pick some herbs and came back to cook medicinal soup, pour a bowl of sweat, and the disease would be cured.

Yuanshen didn't know how to do farm work from the very beginning, since the year he went to the field, he also hurt himself because he was not used to using those farm tools. When I hurt my leg, I didn't even think about telling my parents that I was going to endure it, and maybe the wound would heal when I woke up the next day.

The people in the room looked at each other when they heard the words.

Su Youtian's daughter-in-law Zhang Meihua stood at the back of the crowd gloating, staring at the back of the old lady's head, really wanting to see her expression at this time.

As she had guessed, the old lady's face was distorted with anger at this moment.

Is the second child secretly accusing her?

But after thinking about it, the second child has always been honest and doesn't have that kind of brain.

But Mrs. Li was still very angry, feeling that her authority had been challenged.

"Second brother, you misunderstood what mother meant. You used to suffer from minor injuries, and the family's money was still tight for the fourth child to study. Everyone tightened their belts to live. Spending money, you can save as much as you can, but you It's not a minor injury now, no matter how much money the fourth child needs to study, he won't be able to save money on this matter."

The one who spoke was the youngest, Suyouliang, who was also Fubao's biological father.

As the father of the lucky bag, Su Youliang's appearance is naturally ugly. Compared with the country people, his skin is fairer, and his brows and eyes reveal the same shrewdness as Li's.

From the very beginning, Su Aobai never underestimated the lazy and greedy third brother in Yuan's mind, and as expected, the head of the family, Su Kuishan's expression relaxed a lot as soon as the other party spoke.

That's right, although his wife's treatment of the eldest and second children is not as good as the two children she gave birth to, but which woman doesn't love her own children? Li Shi is indeed a bit shrewd, but she is definitely not mean enough to watch the second child become disabled.

Maybe Su Kuishan's heart was biased toward his step-wife, so Su Youliang made up a passable reason for Mrs. Li, and Su Kuishan believed it.

"It's my fault, I thought, I thought my mother would let me suffer like before, so I dare not talk about my leg injury... It's because I am timid, because I am afraid that my mother will scold me for being clumsy, and I can fix a tile roof on a rainy day broke my leg..."

Su Aobai's ears moved, and when he heard the sound of approaching footsteps, he immediately wrinkled his face, and admitted his mistake with a bitter expression and tone of voice.

At this time, Dr. Li and Su Youtian just walked to the door, and heard Su Aobai's self-deprecation.

The old doctor, who was nearly 60 years old, looked at the second child who was surrounded by Li Shi and others on the kang, half-curled up. This man who was already a father actually looked like a child, showing the expression of crying or not.

Obviously Su's second child is the tallest in the room, but in this situation, he is as pitiful and helpless as a little white rabbit being targeted by a group of wolves and vultures.

Anyway, Dr. Li felt compassion for Su Lao Er in an instant.

He is the only doctor in the village. He is busy searching for herbs and processing those herbs on weekdays. He rarely contacts the villagers, but even so, he has heard a lot of gossip about the host family from his old wife.

For example, the old man Su is eccentric, and the woman he married later was mean and abused the two sons before him, especially the second son of Su, who was simply the second old scalper of the Su family.

No, not even as good as that old scalper.

As one of the most important wealth in the family, the old scalper eats the finest forage. Occasionally, when the farming is busy, this big baby is afraid of being tired. After a few days of work, he has to let him rest for a day. As for the second child, there is almost no free time. At that time, the food was not as good as that of the most lazy Su Laosan.

Dr. Li had never witnessed that Mrs. Su treated the two children so harshly before, but today he saw it with his own eyes.

It turns out that Su's second child has always been sick by himself. He broke his leg while repairing the roof of the house in the heavy rain. How did you treat this stepson?

It seems that Mrs. Li is far more mean and vicious than the rumors outside.

Dr. Li is not a person who likes to gossip, but his old wife is the biggest eighth wife in the village. He doesn't like to gossip. It doesn't mean that when he is lying on the kang at night, he won't tell his wife what he saw when he was seeing a doctor. The old man may I don't know that most of the news that circulates in this village in the nearby ten miles and eight towns is first passed from his mouth to the old wife's mouth, and then further processed and spread.

"Doctor Li is here!"

Su Youtian dragged the thoughtful Dr. Li in.

"Doctor Li, quickly show my second child whether there is any cure for this leg!"

Su Youtian pointed at his younger brother's right leg, and gasped, why did he feel that his younger brother's leg injury became more serious after he left?

Dr. Li's expression was equally dignified. He opened his medicine box and took out a slender silver needle from it and pierced it into the lower end of his right calf. The part where the needle pierced into the body also turned black.

"You are poisoned!"

Dr. Li looked at the bruised and swollen calf. The scar from yesterday's bump has already festered and pus. If it's just like this, use a knife to remove the carrion and then apply some wound medicine to wait for the wound to heal. As long as it doesn't fester again, it is generally fine. Yes, but besides wound ulceration, toxicity was also detected.

And it may be because the wound has been covered for too long, the flesh on the calf seems to be necrotic. He tried to pinch the wound just now, but Su Er Er didn't respond at all, and he didn't even feel the pain. Dr. Li also thought There is no cure.

"Poisoned!"

Everyone in the room showed shocked expressions.

"impossible."

Su Aobai's eyes were even more surprised.

"Last night I just had a bowl of muddled porridge and some pickles. My family ate these things. From last night to now, I haven't eaten anything else, not even a bowl of water."

Trembling nervously, he counted the food he had eaten from last night to now with his fingers.

Doctor Li looked at Su Kuishan and Su Li in surprise.

If he remembered correctly, Su You Niu is the hardest worker in the Su family, right? During busy farming seasons, his dinner is only a bowl of muddled porridge?

It's already noon now, Su Laoer is sick, and he didn't even drink his saliva, Lao Papi didn't dare to order his long-term worker like that.

Suddenly Su Aobai seemed to think of something, but soon he shook his head again with an extremely sincere expression.

"No, I also drank the medicinal soup made by my mother, but my mother will not poison me."

Of course it wasn't the poison Li Shi gave. In fact, everyone's body will deposit some toxins more or less. The so-called marrow washing is to remove all the toxins attached to the body, and Su Aobai just concentrates these residual poisons in the body. At the same time, he also left some in his stomach. As long as Dr. Li feels his pulse, he can also diagnose the poisoning reaction.

Sure enough, after Dr. Li took the pulse, he couldn't help but shift his gaze to Mrs. Li.

It is true that he ate something he shouldn't eat, although he didn't know why a lot of toxins were accumulated on his legs.

"Don't look at my mother, it's definitely not my mother who poisoned me!"

Su Aobai excitedly defended his stepmother, and as he continued to explain, everyone's eyes fell on Li Shi.

This is also the experience that Su Aobai has gained from his previous lives.

In a certain world, he has a fiancée who is married from the pulp of his little finger. She has a weak and sensitive personality. The careless Su Aobai will always accidentally touch her minefield and make her cry.

After the appearance of the man of destiny, the fiancée who is the heroine naturally saw each other with the son of destiny. There was no gap between Su Aobai and the son of destiny, but because of this, he would cry at every turn, and kept supporting him in front of the heroine. Explaining that he didn't hurt her or bully her, he succeeded in making the Son of Destiny hate him, thinking that he must have secretly bullied that kind girl behind his back.

From that time on, Su Aobai realized that sometimes he seemed to explain to you, but in fact he was stabbing for you.

Shut up, you idiot!

Li Shi was so angry that her own son, the third child, looked at her suspiciously!

＊＊＊＊＊

The more the second son spoke for her, the more suspicious the eyes of these people became. In the end, Mrs. Li didn't know whether this stepson was really pure and kind to speak for her, or if he deliberately framed her.

It may be that Yuanshen's reputation as an honest person is so good that everyone, including Su Li and Su Youliang, thinks that he doesn't have this scheming, at most he is stupid and does bad things with good intentions.

And... Su Lao Er was inexplicably poisoned, he would definitely not take poison to hurt himself, so in this family, who is most likely to poison him?

To be honest, if it wasn't for Mrs. Su's certainty that she hadn't done this, maybe even she would have doubted herself.

"Medicine? What kind of medicine did your second child drink?"

If Dr. Li wanted to detoxify Su Aobai, he must first find the poisoned thing.

"It's just some herbs that my family picked from the mountains. They are the most common medicinal materials for refreshing and refreshing. When I was not sick before, the whole family would drink it in summer. How could it be poisonous?"

When she said this, Su Li was a little guilty, because she didn't bother to take care of Su's second child at all. The pot of medicinal soup she cooked in the morning was not a refreshing medicinal material at all, but from pigweed cut by her two granddaughters. Randomly grabbed a handful, added some plant ash and boiled it.

"How can you make medicinal soup by yourself? If it's not right, it will damage the root."

Dr. Li disagreed and said that the villagers often go to the mountains to pick herbs by themselves in order to save some money. In fact, they don’t know the medicinal properties of which herbs, and some herbs can also be toxic if processed improperly. It's a bad mistake, and it will damage the foundation.

"Where's the dregs?"

Doctor Li asked.

"Gone."

Su Li spread out his hands, looking left and right.

Her guilty look seemed to confirm the suspicion that she had poisoned the medicine.

"It's just some common herbs!"

Su Li emphasized it again.

Su Youliang looked at his mother helplessly. He knew better than his father how much his mother hated Su Youtian and Su Youniu. In fact, among the first two older brothers, Su Youniu was really easy to fool. Well, such a fool is no threat to the two of them at all. If his mother poisons him, it will become a big trouble that can't be shaken off. Fortunately, his mother should have left no evidence, and no one can easily testify against his mother.

"Doctor Li, You Niu was brought up by Mrs. Li from a young age. She couldn't have poisoned this child. I think it's possible that a few poisonous plants were accidentally mixed in when picking herbs, or the second child was not careful. , stained with something dirty."

Su Kuishan stood up to speak for the old woman. Their son had just become a scholar, so he couldn't have the stain of his mother murdering his stepbrother.

He, the head of the family, is on Li's side. Under the circumstances that are guesswork, who can convict Li?

Dr. Li sighed in his heart. Sure enough, Erfang's situation was even more difficult than the rumors in the village said.

"I couldn't find anything that poisoned him, and I could only try to detoxify. This time, the poison accumulated in the internal organs was relatively small, and most of it was deposited on the injured right leg. I explained in advance, because It was too late for you to find me, even if you can get rid of this poison, your second child's health will not be very good in the future, especially his leg, it may not be able to return to its original appearance."

Dr. Li's meaning is obvious, his life can be saved, but he may become a sick child in the future, and even have a limped leg. There is a high probability that he will not be able to work as before.

"And the medicine for this treatment is not a small amount, at least twenty taels of silver."

Dr. Li thought it over and added some body-replenishing medicines to the medicinal materials. With the attitude of the couple, I am afraid that he would not think of boiling eggs for him or killing a hen to eat.

"Twenty taels!"

Li's voice was so surprised that there was a broken sound.

"Cure, let's cure."

Su Kuishan gritted his teeth and said that if he chooses to die, the whole village will stab him in the back.

"Where did the money come from at home!"

Su Li wanted to jump up, but the third son held her shoulders.

Now that Dr. Li is still at home, the more her mother shows that she values ​​money more than Su Youniu, the more Dr. Li can be convinced that Su Youniu has been criticized a lot at home and was almost poisoned by her. status quo.

Under the suggestion of his son's eyes, Li Shi could only take a deep breath, keeping a straight face and saying nothing.

"Well, I'll prepare the prescription right now, and after you give me the money, let your boss follow me to get the medicine."

Doctor Li looked sympathetically at the second child who was so stupid that he had never seen his situation clearly. This stupid man seemed to be moved by the old couple. He felt that his parents were willing to spend twenty taels of silver to treat him, so they must be concerned about him. of.

Such a big man, with his head down, sneakily wiped his tears with his sleeve, which made people angry and funny.

Rao even an old man like Dr. Li who has gone through vicissitudes of life is moved by the pure kindness of Su Youniu.

He felt that, in fact, the second child of the Su family was not the fool as rumored in the village at all, but too filial and too trusting of his best parents.

The old doctor sighed in his heart, the image of Su's second child in his mind has undergone earth-shaking changes.
