603: Treat my father please

Treat my father please

Yu Dong did not say anything and simply took a few steps back as she looked at Sun Jie who was now kneeling in front of her, her face turned cold as she looked at the kneeling mer and said, " What do you want to plead for your mother and sister?"  2

She was not an unreasonable woman but if this mer was to put an unreasonable request in front of her then she was going to make him suffer real good. How dare he even think of trying to get her to bring those troublesome women back to the village especially when he knew that the two of them have brought danger to the village? Was he not afraid that she will make things difficult for him? Was he that big of a fool? 

But contrary to her expectations Sun Jie shook his head and said, " I do not wish for that…my daddy…save him, please." 

Sun Jie was not used to talking to a stranger and he always stayed silent and kept to himself with all the beatings that he took from his mother and sister, he did not say much and simply did his own work. This was why his voice which hardly ever came into use was very rough and coarse, not at all pleasant to listen to compared with his dark skin and rough appearance, he looked really ugly as well. 

Yu Dong frowned, the mer was speaking in such a rough yet soft voice that she almost did not catch what he was trying to say, it was all thanks to her spiritual hearing that she was able to hear what he was trying to say and then asked, " Are you saying you want me to save your daddy?" 

Sun Jie nodded as he continued to kneel in front of Yu Dong and Wu Junfen, he did not have the money to pay Doctor Gu's fees and even if his mother and sister were gone he would not dare to touch the savings that they have hidden in the house, if something was to happen then surely they will blame him for taking the money. 

And even if the two of them caught something contagious, Sun Jie was not assured that the two will die after all, he knew that they were monsters and it was impossible for evil people like them to die so soon even the heavens would fear to take them. 

Which was why he did not have much hope. 

If not for that he would not have knelt in front of Yu Dong and Wu Junfen, he was too scared to go against his mother and sister, he feared that they will beat him again but if he did not bring help for his daddy then he will lose the only person in this world who cared about him. 

Sun Jie's eyes turned red as he looked at Yu Dong and Wu Junfen who looked at each other and finally conceded. 

" I think we should take a look at his daddy," Yu Dong turned to look at Wu Junfen who was standing beside her. 

"I cannot be of much help in this," Wu Junfen knew her limit, she could only help someone when they were on the verge of dying like Sun Ah Cy and Yu Dong's husbands but when it came to dealing with the living, she could not do anything regarding their injuries, her skills were only useful when things like poison and death were concerned.

When Sun Jie heard this his eyes turned red and he started crying, big, fat drops of tears started to fall from his eyes as he sniffed. He did not blame Yu Dong and Sister Wu, he knew that he was poor and did not have money, without money he will not be able to treat his daddy, this was what his daddy taught him. 

Yu Dong did not expect a grown-up mer to start crying like this when she was pulled back by one of Madam Sun's husbands as he whispered, " I apologise for this but Sun Jie is a bit childlike, he received an injury in his head when he was very young and he grew a bit slower than the others." 

As for how the injury came Madam Sun, the third husband did not say anything about it, even though they were tortured by Madam Sun on daily basis they were still mers who understood that they could not wash their dirty linen in public. 

Second husband Sun who was a father of a mer as well hurried to Sun Jie's side and tried to get him up. " Jie Jie, don't worry we will think of something…now that your mother is gone maybe we can ask doctor Gu to take a look at your daddy." 

Sun Jie, however, shook his head and said while he was sobbing,  " I don't want to be beaten, mother will beat me if I touch her money. Sister will kick me too, Jie Jie won't touch their money no more." 

Even though Sun Jie was not grown up properly, he understood fear and anger really well, in fact, it could be said that he was even more sensitive than others. This was why he was not at all willing to touch the money that his mother left behind because he knew that once his mother comes back and finds that he has taken her money, she will beat him again.

Second husband Sun was helpless when he saw that Sun Jie was crying like this but he understood that it was not Sun Jie's fault after all he understood that Sun Jie's daddy was in a very bad condition. He was the one who was despised by their wife the most because he did not give birth to a daughter and even the mer that he gave birth to turned into a grown-up child. 

Madam Sun did not see her mistake in the entire situation and simply blamed Sun Jie's daddy for not being able to give birth to a decent mer and took her anger out on Sun Jie's daddy. 

"Who said that I was not going to heal your daddy, you are crying for no reason."
