Chapter 14: Helping each other

At the health center, Shao Lan, the wife of Liu Jie, a fellow villager, appeared in front of me, she was in good spirits, yellow and thin, in her 30s, like a 50-year-old woman, ragged and struggling. The mother-in-law had already been forced by her father-in-law to commit suicide by throwing herself into the river. Father-in-law is a demobilized soldier during the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, after demobilization in the village served as the village chief, this person, the character is rough and arbitrary, competitive, in 58 years when he was the village chief, fell through a lot of people's pots and pans, at every turn with a big foot in leather shoes to stomp people, the members of the club gave him the nickname ___ big foot sloppy skewer. Her husband was an Anhui woman who was brought by her fleeing mother, and she was forced to marry her father-in-law at that time.

Liu Jie, stupid by nature, when he was 5 years old, he fell from a tree and broke his left leg because of his greed for playing, when he walked, he limped and limped, and for a long time in the small river behind the village, rowing a small boat, fishing for a living, because of his usual water life, he was paralyzed with tuberculosis. The family lives in poverty and lives like a year. The second son born under the knee, the second son built a factory, was admitted to the hospital due to illness, his life was in danger, and he urgently needed surgical treatment, but the operation fee was not enough, and there was no place to make up, and he was anxious like an ant on a hot pot...... In a dilemma.

After Shao Lan saw me, her eyes were like finding a life-saving straw in danger.

In a hurry, he grabbed me with both hands, knelt in front of me, tears welled up, and mourned again and again to save me, uncle: save your little grandson!

I asked her to stand up and ask how much would the surgery cost?

She said: The doctor told me to prepare 500 yuan.

At that time, the economy in the countryside was particularly difficult, and they worked hard to raise a fat pig, and they could only sell it for 100 yuan, and 500 yuan was an astronomical amount for their family. But without money, the child will lose his life and leave a regret in life.

My conscience prompted me not to see death without salvation. Let her go back to the ward and wait for my news.

Back home, I was torn between two and no way to rely on my own financial strength.

In the panic, I thought of many friends, but after thinking about it, they didn't have the strength.

Ask yourself what to do? If you want to manage, you don't have the strength, you don't care, your conscience is uneasy.

After careful consideration, I decided to borrow money from the bank in my own name, under the circumstances, the loan was also very difficult to do, ordinary people could not get a loan, there were special circumstances, the leadership had to approve it, each person could only borrow 200 yuan, but because it was life-saving money, the director of the bank approved 500 yuan for me.

Two days later, I went to the hospital with 500 yuan, and Liu Jie and his wife were moved to tears, and after thanking them, they handed over the money to the hospital and operated on their son.

The surgery was very smooth and successful.

Soon the factory was able to recover and be discharged from the hospital.

When the husband and wife met, they said that I gave his son a second life, and he would never forget my great kindness.
