"Xiao Shi, you go out first! I have something to say to Tianyu. Fang Xiaoshi was surprised to hear Fang Guilan say. She asked her uncertainly:

"What can you say to Zou Tianyu?"

"That's my business, just get out. Fang Guilan said. No matter how people are sick, they are born like this, and their nature is difficult to move, and they have cramps again. Fang Xiaoshi had to follow her wishes and walked out.

Seeing Fang Xiaoshi leave, leaving him alone to face Fang Guilan, Zou Tianyu couldn't help but get nervous, he rubbed his hands very unnaturally, he glanced at Fang Guilan, and quickly lowered his head, he was afraid of her, seeing that she was now so thin that she was only skinny because of illness, Zou Tianyu was even more afraid, he wanted to run away from the door, but she was Fang Xiaoshi's mother and Fang Xiaoshi's favorite person, he couldn't let his temperament come, otherwise he would regret it too late.

"Isn't Auntie's current appearance scared to scare you, right?" Fang Guilan asked Zou Tianyu in a very gentle tone.

"No... No. "Isn't it too obvious for me to be like this, how can she see it at a glance, Zou Tianyu thought even more uncomfortably. But he quickly denied it.

"I heard Xiao Shi say, not only have you been helping her make up for her classes, but also helped her a lot in the hospital, and I stayed here to thank you. "Just to say thank you, and give Xiao Shizhi away, is it necessary?" Zou Tianyu thought in his heart.

"Aunt Fang, we were originally neighbors, and Xiao Shi and I have always been friends, what is it to help with this? Fang Guilan nodded and muttered:

"What a good boy!"

"Aunt Fang, if you look for me to say thank you, if there is nothing else, I will let Fang Xiaoshi come in. ”

"Wait, I haven't finished talking yet!" I knew that you didn't give Fang Xiaoshi a branch to thank me, Zou Tianyu thought of this, and said directly:

"Aunt Fang, if you have something to say, just say it!"

"Tianyu, you see that my aunt has this disease, which has hurt Xiao Shi, she could have been admitted to a good university, but she can't even go to school now, I worry when I think about it. ”

"Auntie, I can understand your thoughts, and I'm sorry that I didn't take the university entrance exam for Xiao Shi. Don't hide it from your aunt and say..."Zou Tianyu was a little embarrassed to continue, paused for a moment, and then continued:

"I'm here today to bring a textbook, and I want to come over every night to help Fang Xiaoxiao tutor the new course taught by the teacher during the day. ”

"Really?" Fang Guilan continued:

"That's great, Tianyu, you are such a good boy, Auntie didn't misunderstand you before!"

"Auntie, Xiao Shi and I have been going to school together since we were in kindergarten, and we are still in the same school until now, and I am used to working together with her to study. In case Fang Xiaoshi really took care of you, he delayed his studies and couldn't get into college, and I want to go to college alone, I'm really not used to it. "You're a little bit promising, okay? What do you have to do with a girl in the same school as you? You're a disease, you have to be cured. Listening to Zou Tianyu's words, Fang Guilan thought very unhappily. But for the sake of her daughter's future, she had to laugh and say:

"Yes, I have a fellow villager who learns together, and that's how fun it is to learn. So you must help me tutor Fang Xiaoshi more, so that she can be admitted to a prestigious university with you. Zou Tianyu nodded again and again and said:

"I will do my best, as long as you don't object, I'll be relieved. ”

"How could I object to what you kid said? You used to go to my house to give my family a little pick-up lesson, and you don't know how happy I was. "Have you ever been happy? Why did I never see it? Is it that you are acting too inconspicuously? Or are you suddenly me now? But none of this matters, the important thing is that he and Fang Guilan finally have the same idea. In this way, I don't have to look at her face to help Xiao Pick up the class every day.

"Aunt Fang, then it's decided, I'll come over every night. ”

"Isn't that too much trouble?"

"It's not troublesome, the bus is very convenient, and after the evening to make up for the lessons, I will take the last bus at nine o'clock in the evening to go back to the dormitory. ”

"Tianyu, you are really a good boy, I feel much more relieved that you can help Xiao Shi like this. There's one more thing I have to ask you to help me with. ”

"Aunt Fang, try to say it, as long as I can help, I will do my best. Fang Guilan frowned, and was silent for a while before saying:

"Tianyu, when you give Xiao Shimei a lesson, help me persuade her to let her give up my treatment! You are also a smart child, you should know, my illness is saved by money, and in the end, no matter how much money is spent, my life will not be saved. "I asked Fang Xiaoshi to give up your treatment, isn't this looking for death? I'm not that stupid! Zou Tianyu couldn't help but think after listening to Fang Guilan's words.

"Aunt Fang, you are still so young, and Xiao Shi can't do without you, you gave up like this, I'm sorry for myself and the Xiao Shi brothers and sisters!"

"If I continue to rule like this, it will drag down the two of them even more, don't you know that others don't know? My family is the poorest in the town, and they have almost no savings, so if I continue to govern, I can only borrow money. I have few relatives in my family, and I don't have a place to borrow money. You say..."

"My family has money. Zou Tianyu abruptly interrupted Fang Guilan's words and said. Fang Guilan looked at him with some surprise.

"If your family has money, it's also your family's money!"

"I can ask my parents to lend you money for your treatment. ”

"No!" Fang Guilan resolutely refused. Hearing her tough tone, Zou Tianyu felt incredible.

"Aunt Fang, why did you reject me so strongly? Our two families are neighbors, and Xiao Shi and I are friends who grew up together. Why don't you accept my family's help. Fang Gui closed his eyes in some pain, then sighed deeply and said:

"Xiao Shi and anyone can borrow money, but you can't. ”

"Why?" Zou Tianyu couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, and stood up violently and asked.

"Because of your love, she can't pay it back. ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"Tianyu, since everything has been said about this, I'll make it clear today!" Zou Tianyu looked at Fang Guilan's tone became serious, and he couldn't help but look at her nervously.

"Tianyu, I can see your heart for Xiao Shi again. You should also see that I didn't want you to be with Xiao Shi before, because you can't have results, and Xiao Shi can't be happy when she marries you. ”

"Why do you say that?" Zou Tianyu felt a chill in his heart when he heard Fang Guilan's words.

"Because your parents will not accept Xiao Shi, because they have already decided that Xiao Shi is a nemesis in their hearts, and you don't know that your father is covering the sky with one hand in the town, and he will use small means casually, and you will never want to get a marriage certificate in your life. Zou Tianyu listened to her words, and couldn't help but be shocked, what she said was all the truth.

"I'm in charge of my own affairs, they can't control me, and I've already decided that when I graduate from college, I'll take Xiao Shi far away. ”

"Unless I'm dead, I won't tolerate Xiao Shi living a life of hiding, namelessness, and no point. ”

"No, Aunt Fang, I've only been a little pick in my heart since I was seven years old, how could I let her be wronged?"

"Child, your mind is too simple, and many things are not as simple as you think. ”

"I believe things are man-made. ”

"If you have to hit your head on a big rock, I won't be able to stop you. But there is one thing I can control: I won't let Xiao Shi borrow a penny from your family. Xiao Shi is a smart child like you, I don't have to say anything, she knows my mind. Zou Tianyu listened to the last sentence, as if his head was struck by lightning, he was shocked, and slowly collapsed to the opposite hospital bed.

The nurse placed another demand note, and the mother fell into a deep sleep for two days. Fang Xiaoshi looked at the collection slip in his hand, and sat there in a daze. All the money in the family has been taken out last time, and now the payment is in tens of thousands. Where is she going to get the money?

Before she knew it, it was already dark, and she didn't know about it, and she didn't know how long she had been sitting, and her stomach had already been "gurgling" after not eating for a day. It wasn't until the door in the ward was pushed open that she looked up.

Looking at Fang Xiaoshi's haggard face and chapped lips, Zou Tianyu said with a little choked in pain:

"If you do, your mother didn't fall, you fell first. Speaking of this, he handed the convenient bag in his hand to Fang Xiaoshi's hand:

"Hurry up and eat!" Holding the hot lunch box in her hand, Fang Xiaoshi couldn't be strong anymore, and her tears dripped down the convenience bag and made a "rustling" sound.

"Here you go!" Zou Tianyu stuffed a convenient bag into Fang Xiaoshi's hand again, Fang Xiaoshi raised his tearful face and looked at him inexplicably.

"This is the pocket money and New Year's money I have saved, not my family's money, and no one will know about it except you. When Fang Xiaoshi heard this, he hurriedly put down the lunch box, folded the money wrapped in layers, and tied it thickly, Fang Xiaoshi asked in surprise:

"How can you have so much pocket money and New Year's money you have saved?"

"I don't have a lot of pocket money, mainly because I have a lot of money for the New Year, and I didn't have much money for the first two years, so I gave it to my parents and relatives during the New Year. But since my father became the mayor of the town. During the Chinese New Year, people who came to my house to pay New Year's greetings gave me New Year's money, and I received more than 10,000 yuan in red envelopes at once during the Chinese New Year last year.

"Then how much money is here?" Fang Xiaoshi wanted to count it herself, but seeing so much, she didn't want to count it, so she could ask directly.

"Thirty-five thousand in total. ”

"That's too much, I can't ask for it. ”

"Fang Xiaoxiao, you have thought about it, if you don't have this money, your mother will have to stop taking medicine tomorrow. This money can't do anything with me, but it can be used on your mother, at least so that your mother can continue to live. Fang Xiaoshi thought for a while, wiped the tears in his eyes and said:

"Then I'll take it first, Zou Tianyu, I won't take your money for nothing, when I go out to work in the future, I will pay back the money when I have a salary." Listening to Fang Xiaoshi's words, Zou Tianyu felt a faint pain in his heart. Her mother must have told her before she sobered up, don't take my family's money, that's why she is so clear with herself, it's okay, Zou Tianyu wants to think about it, he still firmly believes that things are in people.

"You can eat some now!" Zou Tianyu reminded Fang Xiao painfully. The matter had been settled, and Fang Xiaoshi also felt that she was already hungry, so she hurriedly took the convenience bag containing the fast food again, opened it, and devoured it. Looking at Fang Xiaoshi, who was immersed in hardship, Zou Tianyu's heart softened, he couldn't help but stare at her, and said silently:

"Xiao Shi, don't worry, I will definitely walk side by side with you in this critical moment. ”
