"Alright." When Bai Qiyao heard the doctor's words, his eyes flashed with surprise. He estimated that he could only earn one tael of silver for a month's work. He did not expect good medicinal herbs to be so expensive. However, when he saw his daughter on the bed, who was on the verge of death, Bai Qiyao still spoke resolutely.
This was his daughter, and he was watching her with such indifference.
"That's right. No matter how much it costs, I have to save my daughter.”Lady Wang cried, her eyes filled with grief.
" Third Brother, Mother…" Second Uncle Bai Qizong's voice said,""Mother didn't give me that much money, I…"
How could Bai Qiyao not know that his mother had just said that she wouldn't treat Ling 'er? Bai Qiyao's eyes darkened, and his heart turned cold.
" Sob…" Madam Wang started crying when she heard Bai Qi Zong's words. It was obvious that she was in despair. Bai Bao 'er and Bai Duo' er also started crying. The entire room was filled with sad and despairing cries.
"Forget it." The doctor could not bear to watch this family. Looking at Bai Ling 'er who was still unconscious on the bed, her crisp voice seemed to still echo in his ears. The doctor gritted his teeth and said,"I'll get you the medicine first. You can give it to me when you have money.”
" Thank you, doctor... boohoo..." Lady Wang's eyes flashed with ecstasy. She quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the doctor. Bai Bao 'er and Bai Duo' er also followed their mother's actions and kowtowed to the doctor.
The doctor sighed helplessly. He took the only tael of silver in Bai Qizong's hand and walked out. This included Bai Qiyao's medical expenses. He only hoped that his wife wouldn't scold him too badly when he got back.
In the upper room, Bai Qizu's son, Bai Dong 'er, stood in front of the adults and said vividly,""That doctor said that the money for a single dose of medicine would cost one tael of silver. My third uncle is very generous. He agreed without thinking. Tsk tsk, Father, do we have so much silver?”Bai Dong 'er pretended to be surprised.
"That prodigal thing, she even dared to pour a tael of silver worth of medicine into her stomach. Isn't she afraid that she will drink to death? " It must be that wicked woman from the Wang Consortium who instigated this…" Luo Shi's eyes widened when she heard the price of one tael of silver. When she heard Bai Dong 'er's words to fan the flames, she slammed the bed angrily and scolded the Wang Consortium.
"Mother, I told you." Bai Qiguang leaned back in his chair leisurely and said coldly,""My mother, if you don't listen to me, our family will collapse.”
Luo Shi's eyes rolled around. He thought about how his third son would become a cripple in the future if he did not handle it well. Not only would he not be able to earn more than one tael of silver a month, but he might also have to take medicine.
The third branch did not have any sons, so they were all losers. Now, that money-losing good-for-nothing who couldn't die still had to take such expensive medicine. He indeed had nearly a hundred taels of silver in his hands, but he definitely couldn't lose it to this third son's family.
"Alright, go find the mayor. Fourth Bro, go find your father. Just say that we're going to split up." As soon as Luo Shi finished speaking, everyone in the room who was waiting for the news got busy.
In the room, everyone sat on the chairs with different expressions. Even Bai Qiyao, who couldn't walk around freely because of his foot injury, was moved out by the two nephews of the fourth branch and sat in the room.
"Who said that? I'm not dead yet. Why are we splitting up?" Old Master Bai's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. He slapped the edge of the bed fiercely with one hand and spoke in a very revealing tone.
The mayor, who had been invited, had an indifferent expression on his face. Outsiders did not know about the Bai family. However, when Bai Qiguang went to find him, he told him that the daughter-in-law of the third branch was not nice to his mother, and his mother wanted them to leave.
"Father, as the saying goes. The tree branches are big, and the children and grandchildren have their own blessings. You and mother are already so old. How can we let you suffer with us unfilial descendants?”As he spoke, Bai Qiguang glared at the listless Wang family angrily.
Madam Wang was baffled by the glare, but she also knew that she had no confidence to speak in this family, so she did not dare to make a sound.
When the mayor saw the guilty look on Madam Wang's face, he could only sigh in his heart."Big brother, since the children and your wife have said that they want to split up. What do you think?"
"I don't agree." Master Bai swept his eyes over the crowd and asked in an unfriendly tone,"Which one of you wants to split up? Fourth Brother, is that you?”
Bai Qizu quickly put on a fawning smile and said,"Father, how can I? I still have to follow the two elders and support you in your old age.”As he spoke, he even smiled at Luo.
"Since it's not you, then what's the point? Everything is fine." Master Bai said.
"Father, today's matter can't be forgotten. Third sister-in-law is so disobedient to my mother. As brothers, we won't agree.”Bai Qizu received Bai Qiguang's gaze and quickly said.
"Father, I think so too. Even if the third daughter-in-law didn't give birth to a son for the third family, our family didn't say anything. But today, she disobeyed her mother's wishes. As her sons, we can't stand it anymore.”Bai Qiguang looked at Bai Qiyao and said coldly,""Third Brother, if you acknowledge our mother today, you have to divorce this woman. Otherwise, you can go elsewhere. I won't acknowledge you as my brother anymore."
Bai Qiyao felt as if he had been struck by lightning. It was clearly his elder brother who wanted to sell his daughter, but he actually said that his daughter-in-law had disobeyed his mother?
" Brother, you…" Bai Qiyao was interrupted by Master Bai before he could finish his sentence.
"Third Brother." Master Bai shook his head at Bai Qiyao. This matter could not be revealed. If it was revealed, the entire Bai family's reputation would be so bad that people would point at their noses and scold them. Moreover, his eldest son was a scholar. How could he bear the reputation of selling his niece?
Bai Qiyao saw the warning in his father's eyes and felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
Were the three of them really redundant in this family?
Was it really right for him to let his wife and children suffer for the sake of this family?
Bai Qiyao turned around and saw his wife, who was looking at him helplessly with tears streaming down her face, as well as Bai Baoer, who was holding the Wang family's skinny body. He felt his blood boil.
"Deal. Isn't it just splitting it up? Divide." He was extremely disappointed in this family and could only shout angrily.
"Alright, I'll do it. You said it yourself." Originally, Luo Shi still felt a little guilty towards his third son. Now that he saw that his third son was actually unwilling to divorce the Wang family, he immediately thought that his third son deserved it."Then get out of here tonight. Don't stay here anymore.”# Cancel all reviews: wdd201302 Time:111420185: 54PM #
