Chapter 674

Wang Lihong was truly shocked.

She never expected that such a good-looking person would spend ten yuan to buy this wood carving.

"—I, I'll bring you something!"

She hurriedly rummaged through the bamboo basket and pulled something out—a small pen holder.

Fu Mingxue took the pen holder and looked at it.

It does look very good.

"You've worked really hard, so here's an extra two yuan."

She respects every artisan.

Besides, these two only cost ten dollars—to her, that's not a waste of money.

Wang Lihong was truly dumbfounded.

She genuinely didn't expect anyone to raise the price and pay more.

After realizing what had happened, he hurriedly pushed the extra two yuan back.

"No, no need, ten dollars is plenty for me—"

Fu Mingxue didn't take the money. "Giving you two extra dollars is still a bargain for me. Okay, that's all."

She pushed the money back.

He took the two items she bought and left.

It wasn't that she was being generous—it was just that the items really looked like great value for money.

And also—that girl seemed to be living in very poor conditions.

These clothes and pants have many patches on them.

Even the work shoes she was wearing had big holes in them.

Therefore, she did not take advantage of the girl.

After all, it must have taken a lot of time to carve that Pixiu so well.

Wang Lihong was deeply moved.

She never expected that someone would not only not haggle with her, but also give her an extra two yuan.

With this money, she could take her grandfather to see a doctor.

Taking a deep breath, she packed everything away.

Then they quickly returned to the village. "Grandpa, I'm back. Let's go see a doctor."

The old man lying in bed was so thin he was practically skin and bones.

His cloudy eyes lit up a little when he saw his granddaughter.

"Grandpa, we have money now! I sold my Pixiu. The person gave me twelve yuan."

Old Wang finally understood what his granddaughter was saying, and he was quite surprised.

It's unbelievable that someone would actually spend that much money on a useless wooden carving.

"They really gave that much money?"

Wang Lihong immediately nodded, "Yes, Grandpa, you really are giving this much. Look at this."

She took out the money.

Old Wang's gaze fell on the twelve yuan.

His cloudy eyes brightened a little.

If the granddaughter can really make money from carving, then after he passes away—will she be able to support herself?

"Grandpa, let's go to the hospital to see a doctor!"

Old Wang certainly wouldn't go.

He shook his head laboriously, "No need to waste this money. You should save it up yourself—"

"Grandpa, no, you have to get better. If you're gone—I'll be all alone, and people will bully me, an orphan. Grandpa, even if it's just for my sake, you have to get better."

Wang Lihong's eyes were very red.

When Old Wang saw his granddaughter's appearance, he felt extremely sorry for her.

However, his granddaughter's words also touched a raw nerve—if he really wasn't there, his granddaughter would very likely be bullied by others.

At the very least—he has to live to see his granddaughter get married.

In this way, she will have her own home and someone to protect her.

Thinking of this, Old Man Wang was suddenly overcome with an unprecedented will to survive.

"Okay, let's go see a doctor."

His willingness to agree made Wang Lihong very happy.

She quickly helped him get dressed—then, with the money she had saved plus the twelve yuan, she found someone in the village to take her grandfather to the hospital in town in an oxcart.
