Chapter 29 The Cannon Fodder Uncle in the Imperial Examination 16

"If the eldest sister-in-law of the Niu family doesn't believe it, she can go to the Bencao Hall in the county to ask. I heard that the doctor who came to see him was a retired imperial physician, and his surname seemed to be Cao." Liu said slowly, "And Erzhu was not awake at the time. We didn't know that Erzhu was beaten up. We went there to save his life, so we all pulled the most powerful doctor."

"That won't cost twenty taels! Have you never seen money? Is it because the ginseng or deer antler is so expensive?" Old Lady Niu continued to shout. After all, twenty taels is not a small amount, and Liu also said that there are follow-up expenses. It is obvious that it will take at least forty or fifty taels of silver. Just thinking about it makes her feel painful, and Old Lady Niu feels like her heart is bleeding.

"Mrs. Niu was right. She prescribed ginseng, but not the whole plant but a small piece. But one prescription costs 3 taels of silver. Five prescriptions cost 15 taels of silver. The old doctor gave 5 taels of acupuncture, which cost 20 taels in total. We brought the prescription and the medical bill." Liu took out two pieces of paper from her sleeve and handed them to the clan leader and Old Man Niu. (In fact, Old Man Niu can read. One piece of paper is that his grandfather was also born as a scholar. His father was an old student. Because he failed to pass the examination for more than ten years, he began to teach his only son. As a result, his son failed. So he started to teach Niu Da when he was six years old. Later, Niu Er also taught him for two years at the age of six and fled. In the end, Old Man Niu died on the road, so Niu Er had no chance to learn. No one remembered to teach Niu San. Seeing that his brother was often slapped by his grandfather when he didn't understand something, he thought it was better not to learn. So Niu San was the only illiterate in the Niu family.)

Old Man Niu looked at it, his face darkened for a moment, and he glared at Niu Er, "Then how should we compensate for this? I think I still need to trouble Chief Yu to give us a set of rules."

"It's not difficult, after all. We are from the same village. Although we are not of the same clan, we should show some affection. I think that's it! You just need to compensate Yu Jian's family for 40 taels of silver for medical expenses, and give them another two taels of silver for nutrition expenses. (This nutrition fee is from my nephew who is studying in the county. At least I can't let my nephew suffer any loss. This beating can't be in vain.)"

Old Man Niu nearly fainted when he heard this. However, Chief Yu was not the one who asked for an exorbitant amount of money. But when he thought about the forty-two taels of silver, Old Man Niu felt a pain in his flesh, but he didn't show it on his face. "Clan Leader Yu is right. Why don't you go into the house and get the silver?" So Old Man Niu quickly turned around and scolded Old Woman Niu.

Old Niu had no choice but to take the silver reluctantly, as it was half of the family's wealth! Giving it away like this was painful, and she kept cursing the Yu family in her heart.

When Yuhang saw that the old woman Niu's own child made a mistake and cursed other people's children to die, he secretly gave everyone in the Niu family a truth talisman. From then on, this family could only speak their true feelings, and they couldn't even do anything to harm others.

"The Yu family is so precious that they use ginseng to treat a little kid. Why don't they just eat it and die?" Old Mrs. Niu was cursing in her heart at first, but because of Yuhang's truth talisman, she blurted out the curse all at once, and it was especially loud in the silence of that moment.

"Wang, you old woman, how can you say that? Even if you want to scold me, you should do it behind my back!" As a result, Old Man Niu's mouth slid open and he spoke out his true feelings. Old Man Niu thought it was all over. This time it was all over.
