The two left like this, the cold moonlight shone on the child's body, and the cold air of the night slowly seeped into the child's body, until it was cold to the bone marrow. Chu Sheng felt pain all over his body, and after trying several times, he couldn't get up. His face was pressed against the ground, a drop of water slipped into the dirt from the corner of his eye, the darkness hiding the fierceness of the child's face, and a seed of hatred was slowly sprouting.

When Lin Xi got up, he felt stuffy. When she was about to go out with everyone, Tang Zhishu came over. Seeing Lin Xi's smile: "Lin Zhiqing, your matter has been settled, I just received a notice that you can receive another three months of subsidized food, and when your arm recovers, you can go to work again." The grain will be distributed in a few days. I'll let you know when I'm there. Your medical expenses will also be paid by the educated youth. After that, don't you have to go to the hospital for a check-up? After the check-up, keep the receipts and go to the reimbursement when the time comes. ”

This is really good news, so that Lin Xi can rest in peace. Yu Linlin cast an envious look, Han Meifang patted Lin Xi's shoulder and said, "Since this is the case, you can rest well!" Tang Zhishu also meant this, and he would not arrange for Lin Xi to work after that.

When Lin Xi sent Tang Zhishu out of the door, Wang Xiaozhen glanced at Lin Xi with disdain, and Lin Xi didn't want to deal with her.

The intellectuals left, and the courtyard was quiet. Lin Xi opened the box in the space. Inside is a set of winter clothes and cotton shoes, Lin Xi touched this winter coat, in the past, no one wanted such clothes, but now this thick winter coat is her best equipment. She also had a set of winter coats in her package, which had obviously been washed many times, and it was not as thick as this one. I took out all the clothes and shoes, and found that there was still a set in the box. When you take it out, this outfit is obviously men's, and the key is the size of a child. Lin Xi understood, this set should be Chu Sheng's. Collect a prize by yourself, it's not all your own, is the system Chu Sheng's father?

Putting the clothes back into the space, Lin Xi decided to look for Chu Sheng. The grass hut was still the same as when he left yesterday, Lin Xi found the cooled clay pot, and his heart was inexplicably uneasy.

After hesitating for a while, Lin Xi wanted to find this child. She didn't know where Chu Sheng lived, and she didn't know who to ask, but there was a sound of "jingling bells" in her ears, and when she turned around, a postman comrade rode past Lin Xi on a bicycle. Lin Xi hurriedly stopped him: "Comrade, please wait." "Is there something wrong?" the postman who heard the call stopped and looked back at Lin Xi.

"Please ask if there is any letter from me, my name is Lin Xi, and I am a new educated youth. "I'll see. The postman took out a stack of letters and rummaged through them one by one, "See, is this yours?"

Lin Xi's name was written on the envelope, and Lin Xi originally asked casually, but he didn't expect to have his own letter. The postman looked at the little girl and said with a smile: "Have you been waiting for many days? The new educated youth are all like this, they are homesick! Hurry back and read the letter!"

The postman was very kind, and Lin Xi stopped him again: "Comrade, can I ask you about something?"

"You say. The postman was about to leave, but stopped again. Lin Xi thought about the wording and said, "I just came here, and I don't know the people in the village, I want to ask you, which direction is Third Uncle Chu's home?"

The postman was a little strange, and it was the first time he had met an outsider to inquire about the people in the village. But this is not a secret, he pointed out the direction to Lin Xi: "Go over there, do you see that locust tree, walk a little further, there is a courtyard, which is Uncle Chu's house, to be exact, this is his youngest son's house, and the eldest son's house lives in the two rooms behind." ”

The postman said clearly, and Lin Xi thanked people. put the letter back in his pocket and walked towards Chu Sheng's house.

The small courtyard was quiet, the courtyard door was hidden, Lin Xi shouted at the door, but no one answered. Lin Xi pushed open the courtyard door, and there was a dilapidated stool in the courtyard that fell to the ground, and there were piles of debris in the corner, and the dead leaves in the yard swirled in the wind.

Lin Xi walked boldly to the house, and before he reached the door, he smelled a strange smell, it was the smell of wine mixed with the smell of sweat, Lin Xi frowned and fanned his nose. The door of the house was open, a child curled up on the ground, Lin Xi secretly said that it was not good, she stepped forward to help Chu Sheng, the child's head was swollen, and he was short of breath, as if he was still a little burning. Lin Xi tried to carry Chu Sheng on his back, but he didn't succeed several times. Lin Xi was anxious, patted Chu Sheng's face, and tried to wake him up, the child slowly opened his eyes, as if he was identifying the person in front of him, and saw Lin Xi's face clearly, the child pulled the corners of his mouth and called softly: "Sister." Lin Xi only felt that her heart softened suddenly, she held back the tears that were about to fall, and said, "You hold on, I will carry you to see the injury." ”

Chu Sheng shook his head: "Sister, let's go, if my father comes back, you will also be beaten." ”

Lin Xi was bent on sending the child to see the injury, so he pulled his arm hard, and said angrily: "If you grind, we will be discovered, hurry up, don't talk nonsense." Chu Sheng couldn't resist Lin Xi, and climbed up Lin Xi's back with difficulty.

Lin Xi carried Chu Sheng to the health room, the child's weight was very light, Lin Xi hunched his waist, his back was not difficult, he was anxious, and his pace was a little faster. When he arrived at the health room, he startled Dr. Song in the health room, "What's wrong with this child?" Dr. Song took Chu Sheng, put the person on the hospital bed, looked at Chu Sheng's bruised forehead, his eyebrows were wrinkled tightly, Lin Xi didn't say that he slipped into Chu Sheng's house, but said that he happened to pass by and saw Chu Sheng falling at the door of the house, so he carried the person over.

Doctor Song looked at the sweat oozing from Lin Xi's forehead, asked his son to pour a glass of water for the girl, and said approvingly: "You are a kind-hearted child, take a good rest, I'll take a look at Chu Sheng." ”

Dr. Song is almost 50 years old and has been working in the village clinic, and now his son is also learning medical skills with him.

Closing the curtain, Doctor Song checked Chu Sheng's body, Lin Xi drank water in small sips, and Doctor Song asked: "This kid has been beaten again, Uncle Dagen is really excessive, there have been several times this year, beating the child to death is simply enchanted." ”

Lin Xi's hand drank water, several times, and Chu Sheng could still hold on to such a beating. Lin Xi suddenly had an impulse, she wanted to save this child, otherwise something would happen sooner or later. In modern society, there are also cases of parents who miss and beat their children to death, but in modern society, parents will be punished by law. In this small village, it is very likely that it will not be resolved, after all, everyone thinks that it is normal to discipline children, and the law cannot solve Chu Sheng's current predicament.

After Dr. Song finished the examination, he sighed, the child's body was bruised and purple, but fortunately, the internal organs were not damaged. Doctor Song glanced at his son who was talking to Lin Xi and instructed him: "Go find Uncle Tang and talk to him about this." ”

As soon as Dr. Song saw his father's face, he knew that his father was afraid that he would have to take care of this matter. As soon as Dr. Song left, Lin Xi anxiously asked: "Doctor Song, how is it?" Is the injury serious?" Doctor Song sighed again: "Fortunately, it is all flesh wounds, that is, it is necessary to take care of it, a little malnourished, the child is weak, it is best to make up for it." ”

It's easy to say, but what to make up, Doctor Song also knows what the Chu family is like, Chu Dagen has no intention of working, and the centimeters he earns are barely enough to eat himself, Chu Sheng is basically in a state of semi-starvation, and his stomach can't be full.

Third Uncle Chu can't do heavy work, and he doesn't have enough centimeters to eat, and now he lives in his youngest son's house, so he relies on his son to help a little, so his status in the family is not as good as before.

When Tang Zhishu saw Chu Sheng lying on the bed, he yelled at Chu Dagen, who came with him: "Dagen, you can really do it! This old man is very majestic, what kind of ability is it to beat his son, if he is angry and sprinkles it on the child, he is a man? ! You have to have the ability to get your daughter-in-law back, and you will be up to you to beat or scold." This kid is so small, it won't be a shame on your face when you kill you. ”

Chu Dagen's face was blue and white, and his fists were clenched tightly. Doctor Song glanced at Chu Dagen: "Dagen, how many years have we known each other, let me say two fair words." You used to be short-tempered, but you were able to work, take care of the family, and you were no worse than anyone else in the village. Now you look at you, except for beating the child, you don't do anything serious. You are alone now, if you can do a good job, it will not be difficult to marry a daughter-in-law again, think about it, you are almost forty people, you plan to live like this for the rest of your life?"

Chu Dagen still lowered his head and didn't say a word.

Outside the door, Jin Cui's big voice sounded: "What a big thing, I still have to come to see a doctor, what a precious person this is! No one makes money, but when he spends money, he is willing to spend it." Doctor Song, I can tell you, my family has no money, and whoever spends the money you want to go to. ”

Doctor Song and Tang Jianguo's faces were darkened, and Third Uncle Chu knew that his daughter-in-law was going to make trouble again, so he spoke out to stop him: "Second brother, what nonsense are you talking about? You go back first, don't embarrass me here." ”

"What, I'm ashamed. As she spoke, Jin Cui had already entered the house, and when she heard the old man lecture her, she was already angry, and now she couldn't stop. Directly howled: "Hey, it's really unreasonable! What did I say? My Bao'er fell a lot, and his hand was broken, and I was reluctant to let him come to see the doctor." I can't compare to that noble man, I run to the doctor whenever I have something, don't you not spend your own money? My poor Bao'er, my mother can't stand you! My mother should be hit headlong to death, so that it will not be an eyesore. ......" The first time Lin Xi saw a woman sprinkling, she howled and cried, just like singing a big opera. The small infirmary was full of women's voices, and the magic sound pierced my ears!

Doctor Xiao Song couldn't bear it anymore and roared: "What are you howling, if you howl again, go out, this is the health room, not your kangtou." ”

The "......" woman was frightened, but Dr. Xiao Song still had a temper, and a pair of big eyes stared at her, which calmed the scene. Tang Jianguo said angrily to Jin Cui: "Go back and call your man, don't splash." ”
