They probably would not come after tonight.
When they reached the side of the road, the two servants got into the carriage.
Then, they rode away.
Seeing this, Fourth Uncle Lin pulled Old Madam Lin and walked even faster, as if there was a ghost chasing after them.
“Ouch!” Suddenly, Old Madam Lin accidentally stepped into a snow pit.
Fourth Uncle Lin’s expression turned anxious as he turned to look at Old Madam Lin.
“Hurry up and pull your legs out!” He said anxiously to Old Madam Lin.
Old Madam Lin was also anxious and quickly pulled her leg up.
However, she could not pull it out at all. Moreover, she felt that something was stuck to her foot.
She tried a few more times, but she did not succeed.
At that moment, when she saw that the two servants’ carriage had already left her sight, Old Madam Lin was so anxious that she was about to cry.
“There’s something stuck to my leg. Quickly squat down and help me take a look!” Old Madam Lin said hurriedly.
A hint of annoyance flashed across Fourth Uncle Lin’s face, but he still squatted down.
A moment later.
“All!” After seeing the situation under the snow, Fourth Uncle Lin suddenly let out a terrified scream.
Then, he fell on the snow behind him.
After he fell, his butt even moved back quite a bit.
Old Madam Lin was also frightened. A wet mark appeared on her cotton pants.
“Come and help me!” She quickly shouted at Fourth Uncle Lin.
Fourth Uncle Lin wanted to get up and run, but when he saw Old Madam Lin’s pale face and how she looked like she was about to faint, he did not run.
He mustered up his courage and got up from the ground.
Then, he swallowed and tentatively approached Old Madam Lin.
He grabbed Old Madam Lin’s trembling hand.
She glanced at the situation on the ground in fear and asked Old Madam Lin to raise her foot in a direction.
After failing twice in a row, Fourth Uncle Lin finally made his move.
This time, he was no longer afraid of hurting Old Madam Lin. Fourth Uncle Lin increased his strength and forcefully pulled Old Madam Lin’s foot out.
“Let’s go quickly, mother!” Fourth Uncle Lin, who had helped Old Madam Lin successfully lift her leg, said anxiously.
Without letting Old Madam Lin rest, he pulled Old Madam Lin along and walked forward quickly.
Old Madam Lin’s leg was actually injured, but she was so afraid and anxious that the pain in her leg seemed to have lessened a little.
She could barely keep up with Fourth Uncle Lin’s speed.
Finally, the mother and son reached the main road.
Fourth Uncle Lin quickly helped Old Madam Lin onto the ox-cart and climbed up herself.
After whipping the ox’ rear, they hurriedly drove the ox-cart away.
It was not until they returned to Qingshi Town that Old Madam Lin felt a little shaken.
She also felt the pain coming from her ankle.
“Damn it, Lanhua is gone just like that…wuuu…” Old Madam Lin suddenly said before she started crying.
Feeling the pain in her ankle, she cried even more sadly.
Just now, she had stepped into a barren grave and stepped on a dead person’s bone.
At the thought of this, she did not even dare to look at her own legs.
“Sob, sob. My feet hurt!” Old Madam Lin quickly added.
She did not dare to check the wound on her leg herself. It was best to let the doctor see it.
In addition, Yuanshan and her husband were still waiting in Huichun Hall.
No matter what, she had to meet them first.
Thinking of Lin Yuanshan, Old Madam Lin’s heart ached again.
With her daughter gone, no one would be able to fork out the 200 taels of silver for the medicine. What should she do?
“Yes!” Fourth Uncle Lin responded and rode the ox-cart toward Huichun Hall.
Soon, they arrived at Huichun Hall.
After helping Old Madam Lin into the clinic, the two of them realized that the doctor and the medicine boy were not there.
Only Lin Dachui stood by the bed, taking care of Lin Yuanshan.
Lin Yuanshan was already awake. His face was no longer as pale as before.
Instead, it was very red. It was obvious that he had a fever.
Seeing that Old Madam Lin and Fourth Uncle Lin had returned, Lin Yuanshan, who had his eyes closed, opened his eyes. A glimmer of hope welled up in his eyes.
After he woke up, he listened to his father’s explanation of the situation.
Right now, he was counting on his mother and fourth brother to bring the money.
“You guys are finally back. Where is Lanhua?” Lin Dachui quickly asked Old Madam Lin.
Old Madam Lin immediately cried, “sob…quwuwu…” She could not speak.
Lin Dachui realized that something was wrong and panicked.
Then, he looked at Fourth Uncle Lin.
“What’s wrong?” He asked hurriedly.
Fourth Uncle Lin’s expression did not look good.
He looked at his mother and sighed.
“She’s gone.”
Lin Dachui was confused.
“What do you mean?”
“I mean…” Fourth Uncle Lin glanced at Old Madam Lin again.
“Lanhua died three days ago in the Liu Residence.” He continued.
Lin Dachui staggered.
After taking two steps back, he leaned against Lin Yuanshan’s bed and fortunately did not fall..
