Chapter Seventy-Four: The Vicissitudes of the World

Xu Dong was stunned and said, "Didn't you say that you invited me to drink porridge?" ”

Mu Siqing pointed to the porcelain pot and said: "This pot of porridge is all eaten by you, you eat it, it is so difficult for you to settle the account?" ”

Xu Dong's face was red, there was the proprietress present, he was not good at arguing, so he obediently took out the money and settled the account, there was no change, and he took out two hundred to the proprietress for him.

The proprietress went out again and took the change, handed it to Xu Dongcai and said with a smile: "Sir, looking for you seventy-five, hehe, you have such a beautiful girlfriend as Officer Mu, that's really a blessing, such a beautiful person as Officer Mu, as long as you open your mouth, let alone a bowl of porridge, it is a luxury car, a high-end villa, and there are a lot of men lining up to give it to her!" ”

This sounds useful, although she knows that it is a "sycophant", Mu Siqing did not reprimand the proprietress and accepted it with a smile.

Xu Dong hung his face and didn't say a word, and after leaving the store and turning the corner, he said to Mu Siqing, who was still smiling: "You are so stingy, every time you say invite me to dinner, I pay every time, even if it is a bowl of mixed wontons!" ”

Mu Siqing replied without blushing: "You earn 10 million at a time, I don't eat who you eat?" Besides, didn't I just eat two meals of you, you were admitted to the hospital three times and twice, do you know, those medical expenses were paid by me, so I don't even have the money to drink porridge now, shouldn't you pay for my living expenses? ”

This remark made Xu Dong blush with embarrassment, thinking that he had indeed spent a lot of money in the hospital these few times, and it was indeed paid in advance by Mu Siqing.

After being silent for a while, Xu Dong couldn't help muttering: "I was hospitalized because I solved the case for you, shouldn't you pay the medical expenses in advance?" Besides, can't you still go to your bureau for reimbursement? ”

Mu Siqing snorted, and said angrily: "It's all because of me? You were lying in the rain half dead the night before yesterday, and I went to save you, and that was because of me? ”

Xu Dong's face suddenly turned even redder, and he raised his hands and said: "Okay, okay, it's all my fault, it's all my fault, I'll ask me, please as many times as you want, anyway, I didn't make 10 million!" ”

"That's pretty much it!" Mu Siqing said as she looked at the topography of this place.

Xu Dong also observed in the surroundings that most of the houses in this area are old, because they are backed by Beacon Hill and the area cannot be developed, so they are basically abandoned by the "new district construction" plan.

The reason why Sang Wanqing, a big place in the past, chose such a place to build his "castle" was because he was backed by a mountain and surrounded by water in front, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it was easy to defend his family business.

Walking along the small alley, at the end of the alley at the very end, Xu Dong saw that there was an old brick house blocking the way in front of him, which seemed to be on the edge of the teaching field, so he immediately stopped and said, "There is no road ahead, go out and have a look on the other side!" ”

Mu Siqing nodded, and when she was about to speak, the mobile phone on her body suddenly rang, took it out and looked at it, and then raised her hand to Xu Dongyang and said, "You wait a while, I'll answer the phone!" ”

This phone call is obviously a bit "confidential", Mu Siqing walked far away from Xu Dong before pressing the answer button, and then said that the phone was going farther and farther, Xu Dong simply did not follow her, stood in place and waited, eavesdropping on the content of other people's calls was both impolite and immoral.

When I was bored, a shout came from the old house at the end of the alley in front of me: "Sang Qiuxia, don't know what to do, I will pay 20,000 yuan to buy the land at the entrance of your tutor's field, it is for the sake of our relatives, if you don't agree, you won't be able to get a penny, and the land will have to become mine!" ”

Then a crisp woman's voice replied: "Don't sell, my mother's illness, my brother's tuition, I said that I want 200,000, 200,000 will be sold, if there is less, I won't sell, third uncle, although I am not in real estate, but the land at the entrance of the teaching field, a faΓ§ade is worth more than 100,000, my land has at least four facades, I want 200,000 is not much, can you give 20,000?" Although you are the village head, you can't force you to buy and sell, right? ”

The man's voice before snorted, and he said coldly: "You yellow-haired girl is a lion's mouth, then you just wait, the plot in the village does not fit through me, the village chief, can you sell it?" Your mother is dying, I'll see how long you can drag it out! ”

Then there was another knock on the door, Xu Dong saw a short and fat man in his forties coming out of the old house with a gloomy face, glanced at Xu Dong, saw his face, and looked at it twice, but he didn't care, he still snorted coldly.

A woman's cry came from the old house: "Mom...... Are you awake? I...... I'll pour you medicine and ......"

The courtyard door in front of the old house was open, Xu Dong hesitated, and when he heard the coughing sound of "cough, cough, cough", he couldn't help but go into the courtyard door.

The yard is not small, sixty or seventy square meters, the yard is planted with some onions and garlic and a small number of flowers and plants a week, and there is a well at the west end, the kind of old-fashioned well twisted with rope wood.

The old brick house has three bays and two floors, and the glass on the windows looks very old, several of which are still cracked and glued with transparent tape.

The houses and courtyards, although they are very old, look clean and orderly.

Xu Dong smelled a strong smell of Chinese medicine when he walked into the courtyard, and he wanted to go into the house to have a look, but he thought that it was still rude to enter the house so recklessly, so he hesitated to paced to the water entrance to watch the scenery in the courtyard.

Two bamboo poles were propped up on the side of the courtyard wall near the edge of the well, and a wire was tied between the bamboo poles, on which a few old women's clothes were cold.

The wellhead is made of hemp stones, two feet above the ground, the round wellhead is larger than the basin, Xu Dong looked down, a cool and swishing cold wind blew out, in the hot weather, this feeling is very comfortable.

However, nothing could be seen in the swarthy well, but Xu Dong seemed to see a trace of colored "mist" floating out at the moment when he looked at the probe, and he was stunned.

Coming all the way from the alley outside the teaching field, Xu Dong looked very carefully, but there was no place to reveal the treasure, the story of the great treasure of the Sang family was only afraid that it was not necessarily true, of course, the Sang family village was very large, and he had never seen other places, so it was naturally too early to draw this conclusion, and since it was a treasure, it was naturally not easy to find.

Xu Dongzheng was groaning, and suddenly heard a "ding dong" sound in the room, as if something was rolling and knocking over something, and then he heard the crisp woman's voice screaming before: "Mom...... Mother...... What's wrong with you......"

Xu Dong was stunned, knowing that something might have happened to the woman's mother in the house, so he no longer hesitated, and hurriedly strode into the house.

The smell of medicine in the house was stronger, and the light was a little dim, Xu Dong saw that there was no one in the hall after entering the house, and listened to the sound in the side room, and immediately pushed open the hidden wooden door and got in.

Although the room was a little dark, Xu Dong could still see clearly, a woman was struggling to support the old lady who fell under the bed, seeing that the body on the ground was motionless, obviously fainting, the woman's strength was small, she was up and down, she was so anxious that she cried and called "Mom".

Xu Dong didn't say a word, squatted down and said, "You get out of the way, I'll come!" ”

The woman then noticed that someone had entered the house, looked at him and asked, "Are you...... Who are you? ”

Xu Dong said in a deep voice: "Don't care who I am, it's important to save your mother first, you let me, I'll carry her out, and your mother will be sent to the hospital quickly!" ”

The woman didn't dare to stop her in panic, and quickly got out of the way, Xu Dong grabbed her mother's arm on the ground with both hands, and "sent" it to her back with a force, stood up and walked out on her back, and the woman followed behind in a hurry.

In the end, it is a man, although Xu Dong is not very strong, but compared to this woman's strength, her mother's body is only about 100 catties, not heavy, she can't carry it, but Xu Dong is not very difficult to carry it.

Xu Dong ran out with someone on his back, but he didn't meet Mu Siqing in the alley, I don't know where she made this call, and stopped a taxi on the side of the road, the woman opened the car door with trembling hands and let Xu Dong go in first.

Xu Dong turned back again, hugged the woman in his hand, and then carefully sat in the back seat of the taxi, until he sat in the car, he felt so tired, and he was panting!

The woman said to the driver: "Go to the hospital", and then turned to look at the man who came out to help her for some reason, and then saw that the sweat on Xu Dong's forehead was dripping like water, and the clothes on his shoulders and chest were soaked with sweat.

"You...... Wipe your sweat! After hesitating, the woman took out a lilac handkerchief from her body and handed it to Xu Dong.

Xu Dong only saw the woman's face at this time, wearing relatively old but very clean and neat clothes, and her face was full of sadness, but it looked extremely beautiful and lovely.

Looking at her appearance, she is obviously not very old, not more than twenty years old, and she has the pure temperament of Mu Siyi's "student", but she has the "vicissitudes of life" that Mu Siyi is far from on her face!

Looking at the weak hand stretched out in front of him, the handkerchief overflowing with the fragrance of his daughter's home, Xu Dong hesitated for a moment, then shook his head, took out his left hand to wipe the sweat with his sleeve, and said, "No need!" ”

Seeing the people in the car, the driver didn't need to ask to know that it was urgent, and sped up and went straight to the hospital, fortunately, this time was not the time to go to work and get off work, there was no traffic jam, and it took five or six minutes to rush to the Tongpai City People's Hospital.

The fare was just ten yuan, and when the woman paid the fare, Xu Dong carried her mother on her back and ran to the emergency room, and he was no stranger to the situation in Tongcheng Hospital.

From the house to the hospital, Xu Dong has not seen the woman he held on his back wake up, see her face is about forty years old, although not very old, but the face is full of years and life scars, a sick face, but the sick face still shows a little similar to her daughter's "beauty", if she is twenty years younger and not sick, Xu Dong feels that she should have the beauty that is not inferior to her daughter.

Emergency room.

The middle-aged male doctor wearing glasses seemed to recognize the mother and daughter, and while examining the unconscious mother, he said to her daughter, "Miss Sang, your mother is sick...... In fact, you know that I can only prescribe some ordinary drugs now, and if you choose to be hospitalized, you will have to pay a fee of 200,000 yuan, and then you have to look at it while curing, and I can't do the cost of it, so it's best to ...... It's better to prescribe some medicine to reduce symptoms and go home for care, so as to save money......"
