An Unexpected Delight

Black Yu thought that Shi Mu hadn’t realized the intensity of the imminent danger. So, he became a little anxious in his heart. He was about to say something. But, he was interrupted by Shi Mu before he could speak, "Elder Brother Black Yu, how’s sister-in-law’s health now?"

"Sometimes a fit of an irresistible cough takes over her… and she starts to gasp for breath. But, she seems to be in a good mood today. She has gone to the seashore along with the children to wash shelled shrimps." Black Yu was startled for a moment. He then forced a smile, and spoke while scratching his head.

"This is for you, Elder Brother Black Yu. You should take sister-in-law to a good doctor for a proper treatment," Shi Mu pulled out three golden leaves from his clothes, and handed them over to him as he spoke.

Black Yu gazed at the golden leaves in his hand; they were emitting a golden radiance. He was dumbfounded for a moment. He had never seen such a big amount of money even in his dreams.
