"Hurry up, don't grind!"

Lu Li was dragged to the hospital by Aunt Mei like a dog, Xiao Jing had already run into the ward, and Lu Li heard her sobbing in the corridor.

"Silly boy, what are you crying about, Dad is fine. A hoarse voice came from the hospital room, comforting her daughter lovingly.

Lu Li looked in at the door, and there were six beds in the small ward.

This is a township hospital, the sanitary conditions are very poor, flies and mosquitoes fly everywhere, although the windows are open, but you can still smell a strong odor.

Xiao Jing stood beside the bed, and on the bed lay a middle-aged man, with a thin appearance, a face full of wrinkles, and gray hair, who looked much older than his peers due to the perennial farm work and the burden of the family.

Xiao Jing's father had red and swollen eyes, gauze wrapped around his head, and a plaster cast on his legs, and was suspended in the air by a rope.

"Dad, what's going on?" asked Xiao Jing with a sob.

Xiao Jing's father sighed and said, "I was going to the market to sell watermelons this morning, and I accidentally bumped into a luxury car, and they came down and beat me up without saying anything." ”

Aunt Mei couldn't stand it anymore, pinched her waist and shouted: "I said Lao Liu, you are too honest, they are obviously touching porcelain, how can you say that you touched them, they still beat you like this, you must call the police and let them pay for the medical expenses." ”

At that time, Aunt Mei was selling vegetables next to her, and the story was clearly visible, Lao Liu's agricultural three-wheeler was parked on the side of the road, and they bumped into it themselves.

Lao Liu shook his head and sighed, he is an honest farmer, he has never blushed with anyone in his life, and he will swallow his anger when he encounters something, and he will suffer dumb losses.

"Her aunt, it's all over, after all, people drive luxury cars, the price is expensive, and people have to pay a lot of money to repair cars, so forget it. ”

Lao Liu's wretched look made Aunt Mei's angry seven orifices smoke, turned his head to Xiao Jing's mother and said, "His aunt, what do you say about this?"

Xiao Jing's mother is also a master of the six gods, she glanced at her wife with wandering eyes, shook her head and said: "Forget it, since people are no longer pursuing it, let's not make a noise, we should suffer a dumb loss." ”

"You family, I really have nothing to say!" Aunt Mei stomped her foot and left the ward in a rage.

After Aunt Mei left, Lu Li entered the ward, "Hello uncle, good aunt." ”

Lao Liu looked Lu Li up and down, and asked Xiao Jing, "Who is this?"

Xiao Jing said in a low voice: "He stole the watermelon." ”

Lu Li said apologetically: "Uncle, I'm really sorry, I shouldn't have stolen your watermelon, but I'm so thirsty, I want to pay you some money, but I don't have any money, I'll give you this phone." ”

Lao Liu waved his hand and sighed: "Forget it, a few watermelons are not worth a few dollars, you don't have to lose, just don't steal them in the future." ”

Lao Liu is a typical peasant thinker, with a simple personality, eating a few watermelons is actually nothing, what he feels sorry for is those watermelons that have been deliberately spoiled, and he sees them rotting in the ground, which hurts more than cutting his flesh.

"Bed five, pay the hospital deposit. A chubby nurse knocked on the door and threw a slip at the end of the bed.

Xiao Jing's mother asked, "Big sister, how much do you have to pay?"

"Two thousand!" the fat nurse twisted her stout hip and inspected the ward, "No smoking is allowed here, get out of here if you are smoking!"

Xiao Jing's mother asked in a panic, "Didn't you pay a thousand when you were hospitalized?"

The fat nurse looked impatient and said disdainfully: "What do you think about keeping money in the bank? This is a hospital, and bandages don't cost money? Plaster casts don't cost money? Infusions don't cost money?"

Xiao Jing's mother said, "That's ...... It wouldn't take that much, would it?"

The fat nurse suddenly exploded, her sharp voice increased eight times, and she yelled at her: "You mean I swallowed your money privately? How did the money be spent, it was clearly written on the flow sheet, if you want to be hospitalized, hurry up and pay the money, if you don't want to live in the roll and leave, the old lady is too lazy to talk to you here!"

Xiaojing's family lives in poverty, her mother is even more reluctant to eat and spend, a penny is eager to fall into an eight-petal flower, five hundred yuan is enough for their family's living expenses for a month, and it was spent in less than two hours after hospitalization, she was just a little unbearable, and asked casually, but she didn't expect the fat nurse to react so violently.

"Big sister, don't be angry, let's live, let's live!"

"Poor! I don't want to spend money and stay in the hospital, so I just die outside!" the fat nurse snorted and left the ward with the bucket twisted.

Lu Li next to him frowned, this fat nurse's attitude was really bad.

Xiaojing's mother took out a handkerchief bag from her pocket, and when she opened it, there were a few coins inside, as well as a crumpled passbook, the balance on which made people cry sadly.

Lao Liu only glanced at it, gritted his teeth and said resolutely: "We can't live anymore." ”

Xiao Jing's mother grabbed Lao Liu, and said in a trembling voice: "Dad, you can't help it, you hurt your bones, and if you can't cure it, you will be wasted for the rest of your life." ”

"You are the pillar of our family, the backbone of our mother, even if you smash the pot and sell iron, we must also heal our legs. ”

Lao Liu's stubborn temper also came up, no matter how much the old woman persuaded him, he didn't listen, and struggled to get out of bed, but as soon as he moved, he was involved in the injury on his leg, his face was pale in pain, and he fell on the bed, beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on his forehead, and he inhaled the cool air.

Xiao Jing comforted her father with teary eyes: "Dad, you just listen to your mother, you can still earn money when you spend it, if your leg can't be cured, you can only use crutches in the future." ”

Xiao Jing's mother nodded hurriedly and said, "Xiao Jing is right, you can recuperate with peace of mind, don't worry about money, I'll do it." ”

After a long meal, Lao Liu was finally appeased, the mother and daughter left the ward, and Xiaojing's mother finally couldn't help crying.

She was afraid that Lao Liu would hear her, so she covered her mouth vigorously and did not make a sound, and her thin shoulders shrugged one after another, which made people feel sympathetic and sad.

"Mom!" Xiao Jing hugged her mother and comforted: "Don't be sad, everything will pass." ”

Xiao Jing's mother nodded, stretched out her rough hand to wipe away the tears on Xiao Jing's face, and forced a smile: "Don't worry, Mom will find a way." ”

Xiao Jing bit her lip, as if she was making a big decision.

"Mom, I haven't paid my tuition yet, or I'll ......"

"No!" Xiaojing's mother categorically refused, "That's your school money, you can't touch a cent." ”

"But Dad's medicine bill ......"

Xiao Jing still wanted to insist, but was interrupted by her mother waving her hand, her attitude was very firm, and this woman who had been weak for most of her life suddenly became resolute.

"Don't worry about your father's medicine bill, you are about to take the college entrance examination, you have to focus on studying, I will go to your uncle to borrow some, it is really not good, you have to make up the pot and sell iron." ”

Xiao Jing's mother went to collect money, Xiao Jing squatted helplessly on the ground, hugged her slender shoulders and cried silently, like a wounded kitten, hiding in the corner and licking her wounds helplessly.

Lu Li had been watching from the side, seeing all this in his eyes, his mood was extremely heavy, he really wanted to go over and hug this weak little girl and give her a trace of warmth and comfort.

A family of three was forced to smash the pot and sell iron by 2,000 yuan in medical expenses, which is a sense of powerlessness that some wealthy people cannot experience.

In the eyes of some families, 2000 Kuai is just a pair of AJ shoes, an ordinary mobile phone, a down jacket, and a cathartic singing in KTV.

But in the eyes of a family like Xiaojing, this is life-saving money, which can buy her father's healthy leg, so that this already poor family can have a healthy strong laborer.

Lu Li has a deep understanding of Xiao Jing's situation at the moment, and when he was a teenager, he was also a stubborn teenager who spent a lot of money.

Since leaving the family, he has experienced the warmth and coldness of people, the difficulty of making money, and the helpless despair when there is no money.

In Lu Li's eyes, Xiao Jing, who was squatting in the corner, became the appearance of herself eight years ago.

The young man with broken meridians and penniless squatted next to the garbage can shivering in that cold winter.

If it weren't for a kind old woman who took him in, he would have been dead on the streets and a lonely ghost.

Now, Lu Li didn't want the tragedy to happen again, so he made a decision to help Xiaojing, a poor family.

A warm and powerful big hand was on Xiao Jing's thin shoulder.

Xiao Jing raised her head and saw a smile as warm as the sun.

"Xiaojing, don't worry, everything will be fine. ”

Lu Li withdrew his hand and walked towards the end of the corridor with a dashing look.

Looking at the back that was not majestic, but very upright, Xiao Jing's expression was a little trance.

Lu Li's smile just now gave her a very safe feeling, that kind of natural self-confidence, infected Xiao Jing, as if there was no problem in this world that he couldn't solve.

Lu Li turned into the fire escape, there was no one around, he took out his mobile phone and dialed the number that had called him countless times.

The phone rang three seconds before it was connected.

"Hey, it's me. ”

Lu Li changed his usual hanging, and exuded a domineering aura of superiority.

"Young Master Sun, it's really Young Master Sun!"

Lu Li's voice was heard on the phone, and he was extremely excited.

"Young Master Sun, where are you? I'll go over now. The other party asked eagerly, eager to fly directly with wings.

"I'm at Shahe County People's Hospital, and I bring some money when I come. ”

Hanging up the phone, Lu Li was suddenly slapped on the back of the head, Aunt Mei twisted his ears with her hand like an iron tong, and shouted: "Stinky boy, what are you hiding here?"

Lu Li's domineering aura of the superior was slapped by Aunt Mei and disappeared, and he said with a bitter and bitter face: "Auntie, you misunderstood, I just made a call." ”

"Yo, you still want to call your accomplices, right? Just right, I'm going to wipe out all of you melon thieves!"

Lu Li was dragged back to the ward by Aunt Mei, and then handed an aluminum lunch box to Xiao Jing.

"The buns that just came out of the pot, give them to your nest daddy. ”

Although Aunt Mei is unforgiving and has a big temper, she is kind-hearted, and the two families help each other with something, and the relationship is very good.

Xiao Jing's mother returned, empty-handed and looking melancholy.

Not only did she not borrow money, but she was humiliated by her relatives, saying that it was a great shame to have a poor ghost relative like you.

Aunt Mei stepped forward to comfort, "Aunt He, don't be sad, God won't let good people die, let's think of a way." ”

There was a clutter of footsteps in the hallway, and a group of men came noisily.

The leader is a fat man, with a shaved head, a round belly as if he was nine months pregnant, a floral shirt, leggings, a big gold chain and a small watch, carrying a copycat version of the LV bag, walking and shaking his shoulders, with a face of seven disobedience and eight resentment.

"Malegobi, dare to crash Lao Tzu's car, this matter is not over! What about people? Where is the death?"

The little brother next to him raised his hand and pointed at Lu Li, "Big brother, that dead old man is over there." ”
