Chapter 779 Suicide

“The house is in a mess and there is no place to move.”

Mrs. Gui originally planned to welcome Su Mulan and Mrs. Feng to sit in the main room, but she thought about He Mulin's convenience just now. Even though the main room and the east room were separated by a door, there was still a smell, so she gave up the idea and just I moved a bench, invited them to sit in the yard, and poured two cups of hot tea.

"Sister-in-law Gui, please don't say anything outside. We are also concerned about how Brother He is doing now. Come and take a look."

The implication is that you don’t need to be entertained as a guest.

“How is Brother He doing now?”

Feng and Su Mulan asked.

"It's still the same." Ms. Gui sighed, "Doctor Qin said that although the toxicity of this rat poison is not very strong, it will damage the five internal organs. It needs to be carefully raised for a year or two before it can show results."

“These days, I drink decoction and medicine three times a day. I guess I have a headache and am very uncomfortable. Mulin is not willing to drink it. After taking the medicine, my stomach will become bloated and I will easily be unable to eat."

“In the past few days, I have lost a lot of weight compared to the day I saw the doctor.”

As Mrs. Gui spoke, her tears started to fall.

But in front of Feng and Su Mulan, she still held it back, only sniffed and forced back the tears.

"How did Brother He get the rat poison?" Feng finally couldn't help but asked.

“Earlier, Mulin said that there were rats in the house, which kept him awake at night, so I went to the town to buy some rat poison, soaked it in steamed buns, and put it on the wall.”

Mr. Gui replied, "On the second day, a little mouse was killed by the medicine. After that, I didn't see any dead mice anymore. I just thought that the other mice ran away because they looked wrong."

“I swept away all the crumbs of the steamed buns, lest someone’s cat or something might run into the house and give the medicine again. I wrapped the remaining mouse medicine in oil paper, put it in a jar, and buried it under the wall.”

“But when I went out to deliver things that day and came back, I saw that the jar had been dug out, and the wood was lying on the ground, foaming at the mouth..."

In other words, He Mulin dug up the rat poison himself and took it on his own initiative. Such a generous person can't even think of committing suicide by taking rat poison...

Su Mulan pursed her lips.

After Gui said this, the circles under her eyes turned red again.

Su Mulan and Feng tried to comfort him, then went into the house and took a look at He Mulin.

He Mulin's face was extremely ugly, and he was as thin as a skin and bones. He didn't know whether he didn't want to talk to anyone at the moment, or he was asleep. He was just lying on his side with his back to the person.

Although they were just seeing patients, there were differences between men and women, and Feng and Su Mulan were also friends with Gui, so they didn't stay in the room for too long and came out after saying a few words.

Still talking in the yard.

"Sister-in-law Gui, what are the two pieces of wood under your window? They look good. Can they be used as combs?" Su Mulan asked.

"It's jujube wood. It's suitable for making a comb. What kind do you want? Coarse teeth or fine teeth, how many do you want?" Gui replied, "For you or for children?"

“Just make two or three of them. No carvings, just keep them simple. The teeth should be thicker. I want to use the grate head at night.”

"Okay, then I will round the teeth for you so that the grate head will not be uncomfortable." Mrs. Gui agreed.

"This piece of wood looks quite big. I think I can make a few more. Make two for me, just like her." Feng said.

Being able to buy her something at this time can be considered a great help to her family.

It was my first day at work. It was supposed to be uneventful, but in the afternoon rumors were flying all over the place, saying that the city was going to be closed again, so that major supermarkets and vegetable markets were crowded with people... The public security bureau came out to refute the rumors, but it didn't work. I felt so tired.
