Chapter 17: The World Is Cold

The next day, Ran Zhu and Su Ruo also returned to school one after another, and they didn't see each other during the Spring Festival, and when we met again, we felt so cordial to each other.

Suki took a week off from school because her mother was sick, and we helped her get her books and clean her bed.

Because we were worried about Su Qi, we heard from Su Qi's high school classmates that Su Qi had a bad Spring Festival this year, and her relatives at home did not interact with their family after her father's accident, so they avoided it.

Su Qi's mother fell ill before the Spring Festival, but she never told Su Qi that she fainted at home on the first day of the Lunar New Year and was pulled down by an ambulance to the hospital.

is also because of her father's affairs, the family's money has been seized and frozen, and she doesn't have so much money to pay her mother's hospitalization fees, so she can only borrow from relatives during the New Year, but none of them lend it to her.

Suki walked alone in the heavy snow, accompanied only by the yellow lights on the side of the street, and the trees fell and scattered, revealing its truest face at that moment.

I felt very uncomfortable when I heard this, and hurriedly asked Ran Zhu, "Then how is Suqi's mother now?"

"I was already hospitalized, and it was a hospitalization fee paid by a former classmate of Suki's mother. ”

"What kind of illness is that, did you ask about it?" I quickly asked again.

"I didn't ask because they didn't know. ”

I thought about the living expenses that my father gave me for this semester when I took it out, and Ran Zhu was surprised to see it and said, "You won't ....."

I nodded at Ran Zhu and Su Ruo, who looked at me and continued, "This is your living expenses for one semester!"

"But I think Suki needs her more now, everyone is in a dormitory, so let's help if they can!"

I wrapped the only 720 yuan I had on me in paper, and Ran Zhu and Su Ruo also took out all their living expenses under my inspiration.

I looked at them warmly and said movingly, "Thank you, Suki will be very happy to see the money, although the money is not much, but I hope to solve her urgent needs"

"But I think the three of us must have at least one big sum of money, right?

"Well, I'll take 200 out of my living expenses for the first month of our three lives, anyway, we have a job in the restaurant, and we won't be hungry for the second month. Ran Zhu looked at me and Su Ruo and proposed.

I thought about it with Su Ruo, and felt that what Ran Zhu said made sense, so I had 720 living expenses plus Su Ruo's 1000 living expenses plus Ran Zhu's 800 living expenses, a total of 2520 yuan of living expenses, we wrapped it and solemnly put it in my schoolbag, and went to the hospital All the way I held the bag in my arms, for fear that someone would rob it.

Su Qi opened the door of the ward and saw the three of us standing outside the door together, and asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"

"Let's take a look at Auntie!" we said in unison.

"Kiki, who's coming?" Su's mother shouted softly after hearing the movement outside the door.

"Ah, my classmate said to come and see you!" Suki shouted into the room.

"Oh, let your classmates in! ”

We followed Su's mother's voice and walked around Suki and went into the house, Suki was still surprised. She must be wondering how we knew her mom was hospitalized and what hospital her mom was in?

I put the fruit basket I bought on the road at the head of Su's mother's bed, and the three of us stood in front of Su's mother together.

"Kiki, beckon your classmates to sit down!"

"Mom, you take a rest first, and the four of us go out and talk for a while!" Su Qi said and pushed us out of the ward, so that we didn't have time to say goodbye to Su's mother.

The four of us came to the garden of the hospital, and Suki looked at us with angry eyes and said, "What are you doing here?

"Suki, who is coming to see the live version of the tree falling and scattering! We are kind enough to come to see Auntie, can you not talk so much!" Ran Zhu yelled at Su Qi.

"Okay, I've misunderstood you, now that you've finished reading, you can go!" Su Qi's face flushed. It was then that I suddenly realized that our seemingly well-intentioned visit had turned into a sword that stabbed Suki's pride without notifying her in advance.

I carefully took out the money we had for Su's mother's medical treatment from the schoolbag in my arms, and gently put it into Suki's hand, who looked at the tightly wrapped money in our hands in a daze.

"This is the money that the three of us raised for Su's mother to see a doctor, we have no other meaning to come today, we just want to give you the money, if it hurts your self-esteem, we are sorry, and finally wish Auntie a speedy recovery." ”

After I said these words, I pulled Ran Zhu and Su Ruo and left the hospital quickly, Su Qi stood in place and was stunned for a long time before taking the money we raised for her in her hand and walked towards the ward.

"Kiki, did you quarrel with your classmates?" Su's mother saw Su Qi walk into the ward with red eyes, and couldn't help but say, "Now in our family's situation, you can have a classmate who doesn't dislike it, you have to cherish it, I think those three girls are very kind, you have to get along with others at school!"

Su Qi snorted and choked up and said, "Mom, I know, I didn't quarrel with them downstairs just now, and they came to send me money today." ”

"What money?" Su's mother immediately sat up straight on the hospital bed.

"For your medical treatment, they should have given me all their living expenses for a semester. Su Qi touched the thick paper bag in her hand, she actually knew that the three of us had no ill will towards her, but the princess who had been dressed in fine clothes and food from a young age suddenly fell and understood what the world was hot and cold during this time, and it was inevitable that she would have an extra layer of guard in her heart.

"Qiqi, although our family has failed, these people who have helped us in difficulties must remember that one day we will have to pay them back, do you know?" Su's mother took Su Qi's hand and said earnestly.

"Mom, don't worry, I remember it, I will pay them back when I work hard to earn money, don't worry, I Suki don't owe anyone!" Suki still has a stubbornness in her bones, and it is this stubbornness that has supported her through those difficult years.

I called my father to tell him about Suki's situation and told him that I had given all my living expenses to Suki, and I thought that my father would scold me, after all, it was a semester's living expenses!

"Jing, you did the right thing, who hasn't had a difficulty, when our family was in trouble for quite a few years, if it weren't for Dad's old comrades-in-arms, our family might not be able to do anything, I will send you the money again, and ask Dad if it's not enough." ”

"Dad, you don't have to send it to me, I'm going to apply for a scholarship this semester, plus I usually have part-time living expenses, you don't have to worry. "I tried my best to prevent my father from sending me money, I knew that my family's life was not easy, my mother had diabetes and had to take medicine and insulin every month, and I learned that my father had physical problems a few years ago, and the family must have been even more stretched.

I know my father's method, he will stop his medicine, save money to send me living expenses, and I don't want living expenses in exchange for my father's health.
