Chapter 280 Taking in

Granny Zhang came back after returning the things. She happened to hear the end of the conversation and picked up the conversation smoothly:

"Recuperate? How can she recuperate as a beggar? How about letting her stay at your medical center for a few days?"

Doctor Hu looked troubled:

"My medical clinic is not expensive. But she is a woman after all... I only have my brother and me here. It's inconvenient for her to live here!"

Xia Daohua carefully observed this medical center and found that the place was indeed small.

There is only a small courtyard in total. There are two houses facing the street in front, which are still separated by the original house. There is a low warehouse in the front yard with a back door.

No wonder when Gao Jinxi and the others were there just now, he felt a little unable to turn around.

The Communist Party only has such a big place. Excluding the residence of Doctor Hu and his brother, if the female beggar lived here to recuperate, she would probably have to make a bed on the floor.

But even if you sleep on the floor, it's better than sleeping on the street...

I'm afraid that Dr. Hu finds it inconvenient, mainly because he is alone and is feared by people.

In particular, this female beggar had already encountered misfortune, and was driven out by her husband's family for such a reason...

Dr. Hu's consultation fees and medicine fees are very cheap, and he does not refuse treatment, which is already very rare. I can't blame others too harshly.

While Xia Daohua was thinking this, she heard the beggar woman getting up and saying, "It's okay. I don't need to rest. I'll be fine after taking the medicine."

He also bowed and thanked Xia Yujiao, Xia Daohua, Dr. Xiao Hu, and Granny Zhang seriously.

He also took the two children to salute together.

Looking at it, Xia Daohua felt her nose was a little sour, and Xia Yujiao couldn't help but shed tears.

Granny Zhang thought about it for a while and said:

"An old neighbor of mine has a vacant house, and I'm currently looking for a tenant.

You can stay there for two days first.

I'll intercede with him and don't want your money. But if he finds a tenant there, you will have to move out. You can't delay his serious business."

The female beggar was overjoyed and kowtowed to Granny Zhang with tears of gratitude.

Xia Daohua looked sad, while Xia Yujiao smiled even happier than the beggar woman. She held Granny Zhang's hand and praised: "Grandma Zhang, you are such a kind-hearted person!"

Granny Zhang smiled slightly, took a peek at Xia Daohua's expression, and said:

"All kind-hearted people are poor people. If you meet or catch up with them, you can help them if you can. If you can't help them, you can only watch."

Xia Yujiao and Xia Daohua followed Granny Zhang to the place she mentioned.

The house is not big, it is a small courtyard with a single family, and it is kept clean and tidy.

It has been less than three days since the previous tenant moved out, and we still haven't found a new home.

When they learned that they could live in such a place, the beggar's two children cheered and jumped up and down and clapped their hands.

The female beggar once again thanked Granny Zhang profusely.

Xia Daohua and the others helped the beggar settle down, and asked Granny Zhang to run errands. They went to a clothing store and bought two sets of clothes for the beggar and her two children to change into. They also helped buy some basic daily necessities.

.

After all this fussing, I spent almost a tael of silver.

Xia Yujiao reluctantly left. Granny Zhang smiled very kindly from beginning to end.

She didn't deduct money from the purchases and made false accounting reports - Xia Daohua's generosity when she rewarded her with the money made her firm in her judgment.

This big thick leg needs to be hugged.

What's more, showing pity to the poor and cherishing the weak is also a matter of accumulating negative virtue.

As she gets older, she doesn't care about anything else. This money and her children and grandchildren are her biggest thoughts. Save more money for her children and grandchildren, and accumulate some virtue, so that she can close her eyes even after she dies.

It's better to say hello to the neighbors.

Lao Du didn't live here on weekdays and asked her to help take care of the house. She had to tell him no matter what.

Granny Zhang was thinking about it when Xia Daohua asked her, "How much is the monthly rent for this house?"

Granny Zhang was overjoyed and replied with a smile:

"This landlord, Lao Du, is the kindest person. The rent is very cheap, only 1,200 yuan a month. If you stay for a long time, you can get a discount.

You just have to take care of your house.

If someone doesn't take good care of their house, no matter how much money they give, they will never rent it."

Xia Daohua paid one month's rent so that the beggar woman and her two children could live in peace and health first, and then take care of the future.

She hasn't thought about how to deal with this female beggar yet.

But I don’t know why, maybe it’s for Xia Yujiao’s mental health, maybe it’s out of some kind of sadness, maybe it’s a subconscious desire to recruit people...

Xia Daohua always felt that she should give this female beggar a hand.

After renting the house, Xia Daohua left another three hundred copper coins to the female beggar.

Although the money is not much, if you spend it sparingly, it should be enough to feed the beggar and her two children for a month.

The female beggar burst into tears: "I never dreamed that I would meet a good person today..."

Xia Daohua also finally learned the name of the female beggar.

Her surname is Mei and her given name is Erya.

Xia Daohua:……

This doesn't sound like a serious name.

Her eldest daughter who was sold was called Da Niu. The two remaining children were called Xiao Cao and Xiao Shu.

Xiaocao is five and a half years old this year, and Xiaoshu is only two years old.

Mei Erya had no skills and could not do embroidery. She could only collect soles, make shoes, and make clothes, but they were only short jackets worn by farmers and shirts and skirts worn by peasant women.

She once sewed some shoe insoles to sell, but there was no business. Later, even these items were confiscated by her husband's family.

She had two children and it was difficult to find work, so she had to beg on the streets.

Although it lasted for a while, there was still no food to eat.

Those refugees and some local gangsters, urban foxes and community rats always bullied her.

She didn't want to, so she smeared her face with mud until her face was painted. She looked extremely slovenly and the clothes on her body smelled so bad that people just wanted to run away.

This outfit can barely be regarded as a kind of protection for her and the children.

But with this slovenly appearance, it is even more difficult to beg from the hands of the female relatives of wealthy families.

Later, she was really hungry, so Mei Erya went to the pond and picked water nettle fruits to satisfy her hunger. As a result, she was poisoned.

Later, her husband's family contacted the seller to buy someone, and just in time she developed a rash after being poisoned. It was a blessing in disguise. Unfortunately, although she tried her best, she failed to keep her eldest daughter.

After this blow, she felt angry and resentful, and her mood fluctuated violently. All the illnesses caused by the cold, humiliation, and sitting were aroused, and she developed a high fever.

Fortunately, she only ate the water nettle fruit herself and did not dare to give it to the children. Otherwise, someone might have died by now.

Mei Erya felt really uncomfortable with the fever, feeling groggy and her eyesight turning black, so she went to the Huichun Hall to try her luck.

If I can get a pair of decoctions, I can get through this hurdle.

But I never expected that the doctors and clerks at Huichun Hall would humiliate her like that, after they decided that she was a woman who was carefree and incompetent.

She was ashamed, angry, tired, hungry, and had a high fever. She was so angry that she fainted.

Xia Yujiao listened to Mei Erya calmly narrating these things, and felt more and more pitiful for Mei Erya. She looked at Xia Daohua with wet eyes:

"Daohua, my little aunt wants to ask you a favor."

Good night, sweet dreams, see you tomorrow.^_^Love you, (づ ̄ 3 ̄)づ.
