After leaving the pawnshop, Fourth Uncle Lin helped Old Madam Lin onto the ox-cart.

Then, he sent Old Madam Lin to Huichun Hall.

After Old Madam Lin got off the ox-cart, she realized that her son did not follow her and was about to ask.

Fourth Uncle Lin changed the direction of the ox-cart.

Her expression changed.

“Where are you going?” Ignoring the pain in her leg, she rushed over and stopped the ox-cart.

Fourth Uncle Lin frowned.

“I’m going back to Daishi Village.” He said.

Seeing that Old Madam Lin was about to speak, Fourth Uncle Lin said, “you have money now. Take it to the doctor and treat Yuanshan. I won’t get involved anymore.”

He just received 50 taels of silver, and his pockets were heavy. He only wanted to go home as soon as possible.

He thought about it.

He thought of how happy his wife would be after seeing so much money.

With this money, the family could have a good new year.

“W-what are you talking about? Yuanshan is still…” She was angry that his son burnt bridges after crossing the river and did not do anything after taking the money.

“Doesn’t he have you to look after him? Even if 1 stay, 1 won’t be of much help.” “I borrowed the ox-cart from the village chief. It’s been a night, so 1 have to return it.”

“If Yuanshan is cured, I need to go back.”

“You can ask father to go to the west city gate and rent an ox-cart under the crooked tree. It doesn’t cost much.” Fourth Uncle Lin said.

He remembered that his mother still had 250 taels of silver.

Even if they spent it on Yuanshan’s leg, there would still be some left.

Old Madam Lin hesitated.

Fourth Uncle Lin took the opportunity to ride away.

Old Madam Lin wanted to chase after him, but her feet hurt.

In addition, she remembered that Lin Dachui and Lin Yuanshan were still waiting for her in Huichun Hall.

After sorting out her emotions, she dragged herself to Huichun Hall.

Lin Dachui and Lin Yuanshan soon learned of the situation.

Then, Lin Yuanshan excitedly asked Lin Dachui to find a doctor.

The doctor saw that the three of them really had money and agreed happily.

Soon, they were ready to treat Lin Yuanshan’s injuries.

First, he cleaned the wound, then he set the bones.

In the end, Yuanshan lost a lot of blood.

The doctor quickly asked the medicine boy to fetch the ginseng and put it on Lin Yuanshan.

He tried for a long time, but he still couldn’t stop the bleeding.

After that, he had no choice but to inform the three of them that the treatment had failed.

Moreover, he told the three of them that the best solution now was to amputate Lin Yuanshan’s crippled leg.

Upon hearing the doctor’s words, Old Madam Lin rolled her eyes and fainted. Lin Dachui supported Old Madam Lin, trembling and almost unable to stand. Lin Yuanshan was not unconscious yet, but his face was as pale as a sheet. “Hurry up and make a decision. If it’s too late, he might even lose his life!” The doctor urged.

“How…how could this be? No, he can’t amputate his leg. He wouldn’t be able to take the exam!” Lin Dachui’s mind was in a mess.

“Is it more important to take the exam, or is it more important to stay alive?!” The doctor said in a deep voice.

At the same time, he looked at Lin Yuanshan, whose face was covered in cold sweat from the pain.

“In your current situation, you won’t be able to keep your leg no matter what.

Do you want to live or not?” He asked Lin Yuanshan.

He wanted to extort money from these country bumpkins, but he didn’t want to kill them.

In this situation, if he didn’t cut off the leg, he might really die.

Lin Yuanshan almost fainted. The immense pain made him feel like death is approaching.

“I want to live!” Lin Yuanshan spoke with his last breath.

The doctor heaved a sigh of relief.

“Get ready,” he said to the assistant doctor and the medicine boy beside him.

The two of them quickly brought the tools over.

Just as the doctor was about to operate on Lin Yuanshan with his tools, Lin Dachui suddenly moved.

“No! He can’t be crippled!” He even shouted and pounced on him.

The doctor’s expression changed, and he quickly ordered the medicine boy to block Lin Dachui.

“Didn’t you say that it can be cured?! You even charged us 200 taels of silver!” “You can’t cut off his leg! 1 won’t allow it!” Although Lin Dachui was blocked, he still wanted to charge forward and shouted.

The doctor frowned, his expression extremely ugly.

“I never promised that 1 could definitely cure your son. His injuries are so bad that even the imperial physicians won’t be confident, let alone me.”

“It’s up to you whether you want to save your son or not!”

“If you don’t want me to cut off his leg, everyone here can testify that your son died because you interfered. It has nothing to do with me or Huichun Hall.” After saying that, the doctor’s eyes turned cold.

Lin Dachui instantly panicked.

Tears streamed down the old man’s face, and he did not dare to say anything else..
