Husband and Father Youwei

Chapter 53

He left Zhou's house with the money, but Tu Lin didn't go back to the village right away. Instead, he went to the dental shop to find the Wuzhong man he knew before, and asked him to help find a suitable shop.

They can't just do business with Zhou's family forever, and they are impatient to sell charcoal in the county town or in the market, so they can only open a charcoal shop, and they will hire a young man to look after the shop, although it will cost more Money, but it can save a lot, and it can also free up time to do other things.

Wu Zhongren and Tu Lin were old acquaintances, so they were not very polite after the meeting. After listening to Tu Lin's request, they immediately looked through the sales book, found several suitable shops, and then took Tu Lin to see.

Because Tu Lin had already talked about this with Ruan Tang before he came out, and Ruan Tang let him make the decision, so after watching all the shops that met his requirements with Wu Zhongren, he chose one of them, although the area was not the largest. , but rented a small shop closest to the commercial street in the county seat.

After signing the contract and paying half a year's rent at once, Tu Lin ordered two three-story wooden shelves, which were ready to be put in the shop later, and all the things to be prepared for the shop were purchased. After that, he drove the mule cart back to the village.

Today was neither a holiday nor a holiday, Tu An went to the county academy to study and was not at home, but Tu Lin returned home and found that Ruan Tang was not at home, so he thought that Ruan Tang had gone to the workshop.

Now that the workshop has been built, all the helpers did not leave. Instead, some of them stayed in the workshop and were hired by Tu Lin and Ruan Tang to burn charcoal. The Japanese went up to the mountain to cut firewood and burn charcoal, but because they were responsible for recording accounts and purchasing firewood, they had to spend some time in the workshop every day.

Tu Lin tidied himself up, and put the silver charcoal and silver given by the Zhou family into the special box beside the bed, and then he was going to help in the workshop. When he went out, he saw Ruan Tang frowning, With an anxious expression on his face, he hurried towards this side.

Although it was still about ten meters away, Ruan Tang had already seen Tu Lin, and immediately said: "It's great that you're back, hurry up, go to the mule cart." As he spoke, Ruan Tang had already arrived In front of Tu Lin.

Seeing Ruan Tang's anxious look, Tu Lin didn't dare to delay any longer. He turned around and opened the locked door again. At the same time, he asked Ruan Tang, "What's the matter? What happened?"

The gate opened, and Ruan Tang and Tu Lin went to the backyard together, explaining to Tu Lin: "Zhuang Zhuang is sick, the elder sister and brother-in-law are in a hurry, you hurry to get a mule cart and send them to the county to find a doctor."

"Zhuang Zhuang is sick!" Zhuang Zhuang is the youngest child of Tu Xinmei and Zhao Changping. He is a twin and is still breastfeeding. Due to premature birth, he is very thin and weak. Tu Lin knows it.As soon as he heard that Zhuang Zhuang had a sudden illness, he didn't ask any more questions, and went into the backyard and pulled out the mule that had just been brought into the shed, and put it on the cart with Ruan Tang.

Then the two of them led the mule cart and went out together to Zhao's house.

When they arrived at Zhao's house, Tu Xinmei and Zhao Changping were already waiting at the door, leaving Zhao Xiuxiu to stay at home and watch her sister take care of her grandmother. Tu Xinmei carried Zhuang Zhuang and Zhao Changping into the mule cart together, and the group went straight to the county hospital in the mule cart. Museum away.

There are a total of two medical centers and one pharmacy in Fengyang County. Because the strong man suffered from an emergency, Tu Lin didn't have the time to inquire which one was better. After entering the city, he went directly to the nearest Linji Medical Center.

At this time, there were not many people in the medical clinic, and the doctor sitting in the hall was idle, so Tu Xinmei hurriedly carried the child to show it to the old doctor, but she didn't want the old doctor to only take a look at the child, then waved his hand and said: "No, no Alright, let's go back."

Tu Xinmei's body went limp at once, and the child almost didn't hug her, and tears poured out directly, shaking her head vigorously and looking at the doctor with tears in her eyes.

Zhao Changping's eyes were also red in an instant, and he stepped forward to beg the doctor to take another look, and to show him again.Naturally, Tu Lin and Ruan Tang also stepped forward to make a request.

The old doctor sighed, he was also compassionate, so he showed it to the child again, but his expression remained the same as before. Tu Lin and Ruan Tang couldn't help but feel a little sad when they saw it, let alone Tu Xinmei and Zhao Changping. said.

But in the end, the old doctor finally gave them a glimmer of hope, and said to Tu Lin and the others: "This old man is ignorant, and he is not good at maternity and infants. I am afraid that there is nothing he can do about this child, but there is a man surnamed Wei in Jiurentang in Fucheng." Doctor, your ancestors were born as royal physicians in the palace, and they are very good at obstetrics and infants. If you don’t look for it, there may be a glimmer of hope.”

"Fucheng..." Tu Xinmei and the others didn't expect the old doctor to say such a thing in the end. He couldn't cure him, but he recommended someone who could. It's just that none of them had been to Fucheng. Can't help but feel a little helpless.

However, Tu Lin knew that the child's illness could not be delayed for a moment. After inquiring about the situation in Fucheng with the old doctor, he said without much hesitation: "Ruan Tang, there must be an adult in the family. You go back to the village first, so that Aunt Zhao can still have it." Xiuxiu and the others, don't worry. I'll take my eldest sister and brother-in-law to Fucheng to find Dr. Wei to treat Zhuang Zhuang, and we won't be back until tomorrow at the earliest, so I'll leave the family to you."

Fucheng is not far from Fengyang County, but it is not too close. The mule cart will take half a day at the fastest, and it is almost noon at this time. When I get to Fucheng, I still need to find a doctor. I will definitely not be able to come back today.Tu Xinmei and Zhao Changping are Zhuang Zhuang's parents, so naturally they both have to go, but Fucheng and their husband and wife are not familiar with each other, so they must have someone to support them, and Tu Lin will go with them, but the family can't leave only Mother Zhao and a few My child, so Ruan Tang can't go with me.

Naturally, Tu Xinmei and Zhao Changping had no objection to Tu Lin's arrangement. Although Ruan Tang was also worried about Zhuang Zhuang, he knew that he would not be able to help him if he went, so he agreed with Tu Lin's arrangement.

After the agreement was made, several people split into two groups. Tu Lin, Tu Xinmei, Zhao Changping and Zhuangzhuang left the county town and headed towards Fucheng, while Ruan Tang went back to the village alone.

At this time, the Zhao family, Mother Zhao and Zhao Xiuxiu's sisters were all worried. They were a little surprised to see Ruan Tang coming back alone. After hearing Ruan Tang's explanation, they became even more worried.Even the doctors in the county said it couldn't be cured, so it was very serious. Can the doctors in the prefecture city cure it?Ruan Tang didn't know either, but there was nothing they could do except wait.

In the evening, Ruan Tang went to the county again to pick up Tu An.When he got home and saw that Tu Lin wasn't there, Tu An naturally wanted to ask. Ruan Tang didn't hide it, so he told him everything. Tu An nodded obediently, and then he was too sensible to ask any more questions.After dinner, the two went to bed on time and rested, but Ruan Tang was lying on the bed, and it was difficult to fall asleep for a while.

He was worried about Zhuangzhuang's situation for a while, and thought about Tu Lin for a while, his mind was in a mess, but he slowly fell asleep while lying down.

Tu Lin said he would come back the next day, and he really didn't come back the next day.

Seeing that Tu Lin was covered in frost and cold, although he was wearing leather gloves and a hat, but his exposed face was flushed red from the cold, Ruan Tang didn't care to ask, he hurriedly pulled him to the charcoal basin to warm up the fire, and added a few more dollars. Charcoal, let the charcoal fire burn more vigorously.The family sells charcoal, so there is no shortage of charcoal, and I am very willing.

"Whether it's cold or hungry, first drink a cup of hot tea to warm you up, sit down and have a rest, the chicken soup stewed in the morning is still hot on the stove, I'll get you a bowl." Ruan Tang poured a cup of hot tea , stuffed it into Tu Lin's hands, then took Tu Lin off his cold coat, took another clean and warm new clothes for Tu Lin to put on, and went to the kitchen to fill chicken soup for Tu Lin, but Tu Lin didn't want to be Lin grabbed it.

"I'm not very hungry right now, don't be busy, sit with me for a while." Tu Lin had already drank the tea in his hand, and put it on the table beside him, but because he was holding Ruan Tang with one hand, Ruan Tang gave it to him. His clothes have not yet been put on.

Ruan Tang didn't care about what kind of chicken soup it was for, fearing that Tu Lin would be cold, he helped him put on his coat, and then Tu Lin pulled him, and the two sat down around the charcoal basin together.

"How is it? How is the trip to Fucheng? How is Zhuang Zhuang? Is he better?" Although Ruan Tang doesn't know how Zhuang Zhuang is now, seeing that Tu Lin doesn't look gloomy when he comes back, he already guessed that it should be Zhuang Zhuang. It's all right.

Sure enough, at the next moment, Tu Lin said with a smile: "It went well. We didn't waste much time when we arrived in Fucheng. After a little inquiring, we found Dr. Wei from Jiurentang. It also happened that he happened to be in the medical hall yesterday. , and hurriedly asked him to show it to Zhuang Zhuang. That Doctor Wei really deserved to be an imperial doctor, after giving Zhuang Zhuang a few injections, his complexion obviously improved a lot, and then that Doctor Wei said, Although Zhuang Zhuang's illness is serious, he can cure it."

Hearing this, Ruan Tang was completely relieved, and couldn't help but put on a smile on his face, and said: "Really, that's good, as long as it can be cured."

Tu Lin also smiled, but said again: "Although Doctor Wei can cure Zhuang Zhuang, it will take some time. During the period, he will have to adjust the treatment plan according to Zhuang Zhuang's physical reaction. It will take at least seven weeks. It takes eight days to fully heal."

"Fengyang is not close to Fucheng, and it takes at least four hours to go back and forth, and it's winter and cold now, even if adults can bear the hard work back and forth, the sick child will die no matter what. I couldn't bear it, so after discussing, my sister and brother-in-law decided to take Zhuang Zhuang to stay in Fucheng temporarily, and come back after Zhuang Zhuang recovered from his illness."

Because Zhuang Zhuang was still breastfeeding, he couldn't leave Tu Xinmei as a mother, and Zhao Changping couldn't let Tu Xinmei stay alone with the child in a strange city, so he had to stay, while Tu Lin himself was making arrangements for Tu Xinmei and Zhao Changping. Then he came back from Fucheng alone.

Ruan Tang was the only one in the village, and he had to take care of the two families and deal with the charcoal workshop. It was okay for a day or two. If it took a long time, he might not be too busy. Tu Lin was worried, so he went from Fucheng first. came back.After entering the village, he went to Zhao's house first, told Mother Zhao and Zhao Xiuxiu that Tu Xinmei and Zhao Changping were going to stay in Fucheng for a period of time, and told them to find him if they had anything to do, and then returned home.
