Chapter 250 - Chapter 250: You ‘re a Good Person (2/2)

When Old Madam Liu heard that Su Li was leaving, she wanted to grab a chicken for Su Li to eat.

Fortunately, that woman left in a hurry and only took the money from home. She could not bring the chickens, ducks, and food with her. Otherwise, the mother and son would have a hard time.

Su Li hurriedly rejected, “There’s no need. You can continue raising the chickens! ”

Old Madam Liu said, “We’ll have to eat it sooner or later anyway. We might as well kill it now.”

Although there weren’t many chickens left at home, Su Li was an esteemed guest, so she had to treat her well.

Her son had become like this. They did not have any extra money to hire a

doctor and buy medicine. Looking at his uncomfortable expression, she felt as if her heart had been cut by a knife. Hence, she sold everything she could sell at home.

Now that most of the things in the house had been sold, she realized that the money was insignificant. Those doctors refused to come at all.

Su Li smiled and said, “Then leave it for him to eat. His body is currently weak and needs to nourish his body.”

Old Madam Liu continued to persuade him to stay. “Eat a little before you leave!”

She was sincerely grateful to Su Li. Although she didn’t know if Su Li could really make her son stand up, at least Su Li had given them hope now. Otherwise, her old eyes would be blind from crying.

“There’s really no need. I still have something to do at home,” Su Li said.

Liu Kui’s family seemed to be having a hard time now, so it was better for her not to burden others.

Seeing that Su Li really wasn’t eating, Old Madam Liu sent her to the door.

During this time, Old Madam Liu kept wiping her tears and thanking Su Li.

“There’s no need to send me off. Just here will do!” Su Li said.

Old Madam Liu was still a little worried. She grabbed Su Li’s hand and cried, “Miss, you have to save my son! My daughter-in-law and grandson have run away. Now, there’s only the two of us in this family to rely on. With him in this state, I won’t be able to rest in peace even if I die!”

She was really afraid that Su Li would go back on her word.

Su Li patted her hand and comforted her. “Don’t worry, I’ll definitely do my best.”

Madam Liu watched as Su Li’s back view gradually disappeared. After she disappeared, she turned around and returned to the house.

After Su Li left Liu Kui’s house, she was not in a hurry to go home. Instead, she walked around the vicinity, looking for an herb called Hemerocallis fulva.

As written in the famed Chinese medicine book, Hemerocallis fulvas helps disperse itchiness, curing blood to stop bleeding, clear heat and dehydration, detoxification to reduce swelling, antibacterial, diuretic and prevent bugs from sucking blood.

It’s usually used to treat edema, jaundice hepatitis, turbid urination, gastrointestinal ulcers, vomiting blood, diarrhea, lymphadenitis, acute mammitis, etc.

It has short rhizomes and fleshy, fat spindle-shaped roots. The roots of the grass are poisonous and can cause poisoning if eaten accidentally.

Liu Kui’s symptoms could be cured with grassroots. After using the grassroots, his back pain would lessen. There should be a lot of grassroots in the fields, so she planned to pluck some for Liu Kui. In any case, she did not need to spend money to buy them. It was just a little more effort.

Seeing that there was no one around, Su Li took out the small hoe and basket from her space and started digging.

Soon, she dug up more than half a basket worth of grass roots. Then, Su Li planned to return home.

She still threw the small hoe into the space. In order to avoid suspicion, she continued to carry the things in the basket.

She washed her hands in the gutter and had just gotten up when she was hit squarely by someone.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry!” That person hurriedly apologized and ran away. It looked like something had happened..
