Volume 2, Chapter 89: Incurable
"The other one, it was all used on me..."
Aunt Zheng Duochun immediately gave a clear answer.
"What? What did you say? How could it be used on you?" Uncle Yu Guanqun couldn't believe
what Aunt Zheng Duochun was saying.
"Yang Erzheng and I had just finished digging up these wild ginseng when a torrential downpour started. We
took shelter in a mountain stream—but the rain was so heavy that a once-in-a-century landslide occurred.
In the violent shaking, large slabs of stone fell from the cliff face of the stream and hit my shoulder and back,
causing me to cough up blood..."
Aunt Zheng Duochun briefly described the scene.
"How could you have taken shelter in that mountain stream!" Uncle Yu Guanqun was somewhat incredulous.
"Because that's the mountain stream where Yang Erzheng found the tiger bones—but not long after we hid there,
a mudslide occurred, sealing off the entrance. We could only escape to another exit on the cliff, waiting for Geng Erbiao and Yu
Meilin to rescue us..."
Aunt Zheng Duochun couldn't describe the scene in too much detail, only giving a general overview.
"But how did that ginseng end up being used on you?" Uncle Yu Guanqun was still nitpicking about this
.
"Of course it was used on me—:- After Geng Erbiao and Yu Meilin rescued me, I was on the verge
of death and was taken directly to the county hospital. But when they saw I was in critical condition, they were afraid that if they couldn't save me,
my family wouldn't pay, so they demanded a deposit of 100,000 yuan before they would treat me. Yang Erzheng had no choice but to take out
that wild ginseng with five leaves, run to the biggest gift shop in the city, and exchange it for 500,000 yuan in cash in half an hour
. After paying the deposit, they finally started to treat me… Later, a kind nurse quietly told me that if it had been
five minutes later, I would have died…"
Aunt Zheng Duochun then explained the circumstances under which the wild ginseng was exchanged for money to be used on her
.
"Exchanged for 500,000 yuan? How big was that wild ginseng?" Uncle Yu Guanqun immediately pressed for
details.
"It weighed about three or four ounces…" Aunt didn't know why Uncle Yu Guanqun was asking this.
"Was it three or four ounces…"
Uncle Yu Guanqun insisted on getting to the bottom of it.
“It’s definitely over four taels…”
Yang Erzheng, who had been silent all along, said this.
“Don’t you know that three taels is considered ginseng and four taels is considered treasure? If it’s over four taels, its value is definitely
over a million. How could you sell it for only 500,000!” Uncle Yu Guanqun was simply unbearable
. Even in this situation, he was still arguing about this.
“At the time, I asked the other party for 700,000, and they said they would only give 350,000; I said at least 600,000, and they
said at most 400,000; I said 550,000 was not an option, and they said 450,000 was the most they could offer; I finally
said 500,000, not a penny less, or I would go sell it to someone else—and that’s when the deal was finally made…
”
Yang Erzheng recounted the whole situation.
“You can’t argue with Yang Erzheng about this—anyone in my shoes wouldn’t have cared about gains and losses back then—because I
was on the verge of death and desperately needed money. Even if they only offered 100,000, let alone 500,000, I’d have had to accept my bad luck!
The hospital wouldn’t treat me without a 100,000 deposit…”
Aunt Zheng Duochun naturally had to speak up.
“Ugh, that damned hospital! Once I can get out of bed, I’ll get hundreds of kilograms of explosives and blow them all to
pieces!” Uncle Yu Guanqun vented all his resentment on the hospital’s opportunistic looting
.
“Don’t do anything stupid like that. Our family is about to be liberated; what they robbed us of
is just a tiny fraction, negligible…”
Aunt Zheng Duochun tried her best to comfort Uncle Yu Guanqun, telling him not to get angry and not to think about those absurd
revenge plans.
"But, the hospital embezzled 300,000 yuan to save your life, Yang Erzheng traded wild ginseng for 500,000 yuan,
where is the remaining 200,000 yuan?" Uncle Yu Guanqun was still nitpicking the details, afraid that the accounts wouldn't be clear
.
"100,000 yuan was spent on treating the big yellow dog..."
Auntie immediately stated part of the expenses.
"What? You spendthrifts, how could you spend 100,000 yuan on treating a dog!?" Uncle Yu Guanqun
clearly couldn't accept this answer.
"We had to treat the big yellow dog, we had to spend that 100,000 yuan..."
Auntie Zheng Duochun's attitude was so firm.
"Why? The big yellow dog is just a dog, how can an animal be worth 100,000 yuan! If it's injured, you should just
abandon it, you can easily buy a better one for a little money—100,000 yuan is enough to buy a hundred more big yellow dogs
! Don't you admit you're wasting money!" Uncle Yu Guanqun's words were extremely harsh and stingy.
“If it were any other dog, we might have given up on treatment, but this big yellow dog isn’t
an ordinary dog…”
Aunt Zheng Duochun patiently continued to explain.
“What’s so special about it? It’s just a stray dog that Yang Erzheng found back then—
taking it to Xiangyun Temple was already more than enough. It’s only right that it contributes to our family. How can we
spend 100,000 yuan on it! I’m so sick, when have I ever spent 100,000 yuan on myself? Am
I not even as good as a dog?” Uncle Yu Guanqun’s perspective was even more incurable
