Chapter 1 Don't Lose It, It's a Cornucopia
Jiangcheng Hospital, ICU Intensive Care Unit.
Outside the hallway, a high school boy in a school uniform and cloth shoes was sitting on the ground counting the change in his pocket.
Counting them, they were only more than seventy crumpled pieces, as withered and pitiful as his expression.
"Cao Xiaobin, if you don't make up the expenses, we can only send your parents out of the ICU. ”
Suddenly, the door of the ward opened, and a middle-aged doctor walked out with a cold face and said, "Actually, they have this kind of traffic accident, and it is a sky-high number to save it. ”
The last sentence was whispered, but Cao Xiaobin still heard it, he suddenly raised his head and stared at the doctor: "What the hell are you talking about, I will make up the fee, why did you drive us out!"
"I was going to help you drag it out for a day. ”
When the doctor saw that he heard it, his face did not change in the slightest, and he said lightly, "Since you don't appreciate it, then give you another hour to raise money, if you can't raise it, find a few people to come over and carry your parents away." ”
Only the dead will use the word "carry away".
Cao Xiaobin was completely angry, and the joints pinched by his two fists turned white: "Your mother was just carried away, and I want them to walk out of here in good health." ”
"Heh, let's talk about it when you have the money. ”
The doctor sneered, turned around and went back to the ICU, still reciting words in his mouth, "I heard that this old couple committed suicide, and they don't want to live anymore, what else is there to save?"
"Grass your mother!"
Cao Xiaobin couldn't hold back his anger and wanted to rush up and knock the doctor down, but a moment later, he threw himself on the tightly closed metal door, and the cold touch, like a basin of cold water, made him fall into deep despair.
His family is special, his parents had no children when they were young, and they didn't have him until they were in their forties, and they couldn't wait to pour all their feelings into him, but the old couple felt satisfied at the same time, but also panicked about the reality of their aging, they hoped to stay in their son's life for some more years, so they worked hard to maintain their health, but they were pitted by a black-hearted health center.
Those so-called health medicines are not only useless to eat, but even make people vomit and diarrhea, and the whole person is weak.
And when he wanted to take matters into his own hands and sell the only house in his family to save people, he found that the house had become the asset of the health center.
Without a house, my parents finally couldn't bear it anymore and embarked on the desperate road of committing suicide by crashing into a car.
Because it was a suicide, the traffic police ruled that the parents were fully responsible, and the driver who drove the car only paid some humanitarian compensation and never reappeared.
"Xiaobin, I finally found you!"
A short young man trotted over, his face full of concern, "Uncle Cao, how are they, are they stable?"
Cao Xiaobin looked at this face unexpectedly, his name is Sima Xiang, he is Cao Xiaobin's classmate, his family is in business, but he doesn't do it well, and he usually looks very poor.
Cao Xiaobin was puzzled: "Why are you here?"
"I'm here to deliver you money. ”
The young man smiled, his eyes full of sincerity.
Hearing this, Cao Xiaobin became excited, usually he has a good relationship with Sima Xiang, and because of Sima Xiang's family conditions, he also borrowed a lot of money from him, thinking that he came to repay his kindness, so he came to send money, right?
His heart warmed suddenly, but Cao Xiaobin also knew that the money would not be much, so he could only laugh: "Thank you for your kindness, it's just that the operation fee is too expensive, maybe it's ......."
"I'm not sending you a small amount. ”
Sima Xiang didn't say a word and took out the money clip, but what he took out was not money, but a document with the words notarial deed.
Cao Xiaobin was stunned for a moment: "This is?"
"Didn't my uncle give the house to our house, this is a notarial certificate from the court, you need to sign it, I can take the house over, by the way, don't forget to move out early, three days, then I will go to collect the house." ”
"What!"
Cao Xiaobin only felt a blow to the head, his vision was a little black, and he woke up after a while, "That health center was opened by your family, and my house was deceived by you!"
He never thought that the person who deceived his parents turned out to be his classmate, and Sima Xiang had gone to his house several times to play, and his parents knew this face.
Maybe......
That's not playing, but going to his house to develop a business?
As soon as these words came out, Sima Xiang was still smiling just now, and immediately frowned, and said unhappily: "Xiaobin, you can't talk nonsense, it's my uncle who took a fancy to our family's health products and voluntarily gave me the house, otherwise why would the court give me a notarial certificate?"
"I ......"
Cao Xiaobin blocked his heart in one breath, wanting to vent but not daring to vent.
He knew that with this notarial certificate, Sima Xiang would be able to turn black into white, and his parents were lying in the ICU, and he was here to argue with Sima Xiang, delaying his parents' lives.
Suddenly, Cao Xiaobin returned the topic to money: "You just said to give me money, how much is it?"
Seeing that Cao Xiaobin had calmed down, Sima Xiang suddenly smiled gently: "Do you think this is okay, help me sign the letter, and then I will give you money immediately, don't worry, the amount is definitely a lot." ”
"Really?"
Cao Xiaobin asked excitedly.
Although there was a faint voice in his heart, trying to persuade him not to agree, he still wanted to give it a try.
He's at the end of his rope, is there any other choice?
"I signed. ”
Cao Xiaobin gritted his teeth and wrote his name on the notarial certificate.
Satisfied, he put away the notarial certificate, but Sima Xiang really took out a few banknotes and threw them at Cao Xiaobin's feet: "Five hundred yuan, a lot, enough to buy a few bottles of good painkillers for my uncle and them." ”
"Painkiller ......"
Cao Xiaobin's face changed drastically, he didn't pick up the money, but grabbed Sima Xiang's collar, "My dad gave you all the house, why give me five hundred yuan!"
Bang!
Cao Xiaobin was exhausted, he had no strength for a long time, Sima Xiang kicked Cao Xiaobin over, and stomped on his chest a few times, scolding in his mouth: "Give you money to look up to you, don't be embarrassed here, tell you the truth, I have already inquired, your house is facing demolition, and you can compensate a lot of money when the time comes, who made your father a fool, coax him to give me the house in a few words, haha, now our family's business is going to get better." ”
Cao Xiaobin couldn't breathe in pain, so he could only hold his head and prevent him from kicking his face.
My father said that a man can be beaten down, but he must save his face, because that is the last shred of a man's dignity.
That bit of dignity is not broken, and this man can still stand up.
I don't know how long I kicked it, Sima Xiang suddenly didn't move, Cao Xiaobin slowly removed his palm, and saw a stainless steel rice bowl smashed up.
It was the kind of rice bowl that was common in hospitals, and it smashed on Cao Xiaobin's body with a bang, and he grinned again in pain.
"If you want to make money, take this rice bowl and go out to ask for food. ”
Sima Xiang smiled arrogantly, straightened his wrinkled neckline, and walked away proudly.
The people around him pointed fingers, some were joking and sarcastic, and some were sympathetic and pitiful, but no one came up to help him, probably because he was afraid that he would take the opportunity to slander others and provoke himself again.
Until an old man's voice rang in his ears: "If you let people fight, find a way to fight back, and it's not a shame to throw people on the ground!"
"I understand, I'm going to fight back!"
Cao Xiaobin seemed to answer the old man, and seemed to say to himself, trying to support his body.
I don't know who came next to him: "Look at this young man, he made people stupid, talking to himself there." ”
Cao Xiaobin looked up strangely, an old man with a white face and a lovely smile was standing in front of him, how could the people around him say that he was talking to himself?
"Ignore them. ”
The old man waved his hand indifferently, "You are very short of money, right, as long as you listen to me, you will have countless glory and wealth." ”
Cao Xiaobin smiled dumbly, of course he wouldn't believe the old man's words, but his heart was still very warm, and he nodded and said, "Thank you, I will raise money." ”
After speaking, he picked up the five hundred yuan in humiliation, although this was given to him by Cao Hai, but now, where does he have the confidence to refuse?
As for the stainless steel rice bowl, he wanted to throw it away.
"Don't lose it, it's a cornucopia. ”
The old man's voice sounded again.
Cao Xiaobin was stunned, looked at the old man with an extremely serious expression, and said in his heart that this can't be an uncle from the psychiatric department, right?
It's really sad to think about yourself, and in the most desperate moment, there is only one mental illness that will comfort you.
Smiling at the old man, Cao Xiaobin continued to walk towards the trash can.
"Boy, don't even listen to your ancestor's words, do you?"
Suddenly, the old man appeared beside him and stopped Cao Xiaobin, "If you want to save your parents, put the hundred-yuan bill in the cornucopia, it will help you raise money." ”
When the words fell, the old man's figure shook and disappeared.
Cao Xiaobin hurriedly wiped his eyes in fright, there was indeed no figure of the old man.
Looking around, no one seemed to be aware of the old man's existence, and Cao Xiaobin finally realized one thing, either he was hallucinated by Cao Hai, or he was ......
"Hit the ghost?"
Cao Xiaobin said this speculation in horror.
"What a ghost, I'm your ancestor, Cao Cao!"
This time, the sound came straight into my head.
Cao Xiaobin's frightened back of his neck was cold, and he even forgot to throw away the rice bowl, so he ran out of the hospital and ran home all the way home, which calmed down.
It's just that now when I see my home again, I feel even more uncomfortable.
Anyway, this house was also deceived by Sima Xiang, and if there is anything that can be sold, it will be sold for parents to treat their illness.
Cao Xiaobin threw the 500 yuan into the rice bowl, put it on the table casually, and then began to sort out the valuable items at home, but as soon as he took out the computer from the bedroom, the whole person was stunned like a piece of wood.
The five hundred yuan in the rice bowl turned into a tall stack of banknotes!
Damn, what's going on!
Cao Xiaobin stayed for a long time, and finally took a breath and walked over to pour the money on the table.
It's not a serial number, it's not a counterfeit banknote, it's a real banknote.
"Is that the old man?"
Cao Xiaobin suddenly remembered the old man's words, this is a cornucopia, as long as you put the money in it, it will help raise money.
Really?
Cao Xiaobin swallowed, picked up a wad of banknotes, and put them in the stainless steel rice bowl again.
Then, one to four, four to eight, more and more bills came out of the basin, and finally they all poured out of the basin.
The old man's words are true!
Looking at the hundreds of banknotes that suddenly appeared, Cao Xiaobin felt that he had reached heaven from hell.
It's really a cornucopia!
Wait a minute.
Who did the old man say he was?
His own ancestor, Cao Cao!
"Stinky boy is not stupid, he finally knows the role of this cornucopia. ”
Just as he was thinking about this, the old man's voice suddenly sounded behind him.
