"What is the best gift for a boy's birthday?" Zhang Mengqi asked,

Yang Hao raised his head from the food pile: "Boyfriend? ”

"No, it's just a friend, or a sister's brother to be exact. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Yang Hao pointed at Zhang Mengqi's nose with chopsticks and scolded: "Brute, you can also do it with your sister's brother." ”

Zhang Mengqi rolled her eyes: "Can your thoughts be pure, and you can have so many associations when you give a gift." ”

"If you don't plan to soak, it's recommended not to send it."

Zhang Mengqi was instantly defeated by her, "Forget it, I won't ask you, I'll go to the street and take a look myself." ”

Saying that, Zhang Mengqi went out.

Yang Hao shouted in the back: "If it's really just a younger brother, then don't send shirts, leather shoes, clothes or anything." ”

Zhang Mengqi suddenly felt a headache, these few things can't be sent, so what else can be sent, aren't these only things that boys usually like?

Zhang Mengqi sneaked out to the street, into a relatively high-end department store up and down a circle, the mall is full of goods, but come and go only these few clothes and jewelry, of course, umbrellas and shoes, but the last two do not need to be reminded to know that they can not be sent, the average Chinese are more taboo to give people umbrellas and shoes.

Leaving the mall with nothing, wandering aimlessly on the road, scratching his head and not thinking of what to buy to bring over. Originally, everything was solved by ordering a cake, but the damn candy Zhang had to insist on ordering the cake himself, wasn't it deliberately embarrassing?

There is still an hour left before the agreed time, and Pi Tangzhang's home is in another suburb of the city, and he will have to take a taxi to go there, and time is running out, and if he can't solve the problem of gifts, he may be late later.

It is rude to be late for the first time at someone's house, and of course you don't want to make such a bad impression.

"Watermelon, a big red and sweet watermelon, wrapped in cooked and sweet, not sweet and no money." There was a farm truck parked on the side of the road, full of round and large watermelons, and the watermelon vendor stood by the car and kept shouting.

It was as if the drowning man suddenly grabbed a life-saving straw, ran to the farm truck and asked, "Cauldron, how to sell watermelons?" ”

"One dollar and one pound, the package is sweet, and you will open it when you pay for it." The watermelon seller greeted him warmly when he saw the business coming to his door.

"Pick a big one for me."

The vendor picked up a large watermelon and slapped it in his hand, patting it with his palm, and said, "This is definitely Shaxin." ”

"I believe you, that's all."

The hawker said: "21 catties, you give 20 yuan." As he spoke, he took the knife and was about to cut it.

Zhang Mengqi hurriedly stopped: "No need to cut, no need to cut." ”

Are you kidding, this watermelon was bought and given as a gift, how can you get it when you cut it in half?

The vendor smiled: "Actually, it doesn't matter if you don't cut it, there will be no problem with the one I choose, but some customers are not at ease, so we cut it to him." ”

Zhang Mengqi quickly paid the money, picked up the big watermelon, stopped a taxi on the side of the road, and went straight to Pitang Zhang's house.

In the car, I suddenly received a call from Yang Hao: "Have you bought the gift?" ”

Zhang Mengqi said dissatisfiedly: "You still care about this, I didn't give me an idea just now, I have already bought it." ”

"What did you buy?"

"Bought a big watermelon."

Yang Hao laughed convulsively on the other end of the phone, "It's really stupid to say that you are stupid, how can you send watermelons when you go to someone's house as a guest now, you might as well not send it, if you don't send it, it can prove that you are familiar with each other, you don't care about these false courtesies, send a big watermelon, which shows that you don't understand human feelings." ”

Zhang Mengqi said: "Clothes and shoes can't be delivered, and my sister resolutely reserves the right to order cakes. ”

Yang Hao patiently explained, "It's not impossible to send fruit, but you can't send watermelon." ”

"We had Juneteenth, and when others went to our house, relatives gave watermelons."

"That's with you, not here."

"You just say that we are in the countryside, and you are in a big city."

"You're taking a taxi now, you quickly give the watermelon to the driver, and then ask him where there is a high-end fruit store nearby, go in and buy some cherries and cherries, you don't need to buy too much, just two or three hundred yuan, in short, you listen to me."

Zhang Mengqi knew that Yang Hao would never harm her, so she listened to his opinion.

Hanging up the phone, Zhang Mengqi asked the driver: "Master, do you eat watermelon?" ”

The driver should have heard a general idea from the content of her phone call with Yang Hao, "I remember that there seems to be a fruit shop not far ahead, I'll take you to have a look." ”

"Thank you so much."

The driver smiled slightly and didn't say anything.

Sure enough, there was a fruit shop in front, Zhang Mengqi got out of the car and ran in, "Does the boss have cherries for sale?" ”

"Would you rather have cherries or cherries?"

Zhang Mengqi: "Cherry cherry." ”

Boss: "You want to have it all, don't you?" ”

Zhang Mengqi: "I just want the same." ”

The boss had a black line on his head, "Do you want cherries or cherries?" ”

"It's all done, just come and do it."

The boss stretched out his hand and pointed: "It's all over there, you pick it yourself." ”

Walked over according to the boss's instructions, only to see those cherries and cherries on the shelves are really good, they look the same, and I didn't recognize which ones are cherries and which ones are cherries after looking at them for a long time, so I chose the most expensive kind of 150 pounds, and bought two pounds for just 300 yuan.

The Happy Community is not happy at all, it is a famous shantytown on the outskirts of the city, the sewage on the ground is cross-flowing, and the water surface is covered with rotten vegetable leaves and used sanitary napkins, and the environment is very harsh.

Carrying passengers to this kind of place, the original 100 yuan fare felt that the driver was a little lost, but the driver insisted on looking for 20 yuan watermelon money, really a good driver, there is a chance to take his car in the future, of course, he will not sell watermelons to him again.

Pi Tangzhang's parents died early, and the siblings depended on each other, and there was nothing in the four-walled house, but on the square table nailed by wooden pallets, two expensive and glorious game helmets and a box of beautifully packaged birthday cakes were neatly placed.

In the dimly lit kitchen, several bloated aunts were busy, Pi Tangzhang's younger brother was sitting in a wheelchair, his knees were covered with a thick blanket, his face was as white as wax paper, and there were several hairy boys around the wheelchair, and she had a bright smile on her face.

Seeing a strange guest coming to the door, a few hairy boys immediately jumped to the corner of the house like wild cats, but their eyes were glued to the bag in their hands.

Suddenly I regretted a little, I shouldn't have listened to Yang Hao and left the watermelon in the car, I should have brought it together.

Pi Candy Zhang introduced: "This is my sister's good friend Zhang Mengqi." Then he pointed to his younger brother, "This is my younger brother Shiqi." ”

"Those are the neighbor's kids."

Shiqi smiled slightly: "Sister Zhang Mengqi, I'm unwell and rude." ”

"Shiqi, what a beautiful name." Zhang Mengqi praised.

"Mom gave it to me."

Zhang Mengqi put the things on the ground and said to Pitang Zhang, "Let's go out and have a cup of tea." ”

As soon as they turned around and went out, they heard Shiqi shouting from behind: "Don't rob, everyone has it." ”

Come outside.

"How's my brother doing?" Zhang Mengqi feels that this kind of thing doesn't need to beat around the bush, just ask directly.

Pi Danzhang sighed deeply, "Leukemia, if you don't have a bone marrow transplant as soon as possible, the doctor said that she has a year left at most." ”

Zhang Mengqi patted her on the shoulder: "Don't worry, I can figure out a way together about the operation fee." ”

Pi Danzhang shook his head weakly: "The main thing at present is not the problem of the operation fee, but the inability to find a suitable bone marrow." ”

"You're his sister, can't you use yours, why are you looking for it?"

"There are only four matching points, and many people have tried to find it for half a year." Saying that, the woman couldn't help but hide her face in front of her and cry bitterly, "I promised my parents to take care of my younger brother, but it turned out like this, I ...... My sister is so irresponsible. ”

I don't know anything about medicine, but listening to him say this, I vaguely know that the bone marrow that can be transplanted to Shiqi may not be easy to find.

finally understood why he worked so hard to change a gold artifact in the first place, he wanted to alleviate the guilt in his heart.
