Chapter 141
(Xie Lu Xie Shen swept the reward, as well as recommended friends Lao Ganlu's book, "The Law of the Dead" is a very good book, friends can read it when they have time.) )
Of course, Zhang Wen is not as convenient as Cai Xilei, who can enter the room at will. He raised his hand and knocked on the door.
"Who? Could you please wait a minute, I'll be out soon? A crisp girl's voice came from inside the house.
Soon the door was opened, and the person who opened the door was a girl about sixteen or seventeen years old, her appearance was somewhat similar to Cai Xilei, wearing a black suit skirt should be work clothes, and she looked very delicate, but with a maturity that did not match her age. She opened the door and saw that it was someone she didn't know, and looked at Zhang Wen with a little confusion and said, "Who are you looking for?" ”
Zhang Wen said with a smile, "May I ask if this is Peng Xianglan's home, right?" ”
The girl looked Zhang Wen up and down, "Yes, Peng Xiulan is my mother, do you have anything to do with my mother?" ”
"I'm Cai Xilei's friend, you are her sister Cai Xilan, I heard her talk about you."
Cai Xilan's expression froze suddenly, and was quickly replaced by a gloomy look, as if he hesitated for a moment before saying, "It turns out that you are my sister's friend, so do you know what happened to my sister?" ”
Zhang Wen nodded, "I know the truth, so this time I came to see my aunt." ”
"Xilan, who's coming?" A woman's voice came from inside the room, but it was very weak to hear.
"Mom, it's a friend of my sister who came to see you." Cai Xilan turned her head and replied.
"Then hurry up and invite people in, silly girl, how can you let the guests stand outside."
Cai Xilan suddenly realized, "Yes, yes, yes, I really forgot, please come in." ”
Zhang Wen walked in and took a look, the house was indeed very crowded, this room was about 20 square meters, with notched glasses, no air conditioning, only a floor electric fan placed next to it and not turned on, and the dilapidated wall was plastered with the awards of the two Cai Xilan sisters and a few wooden photo frames. There are several family portraits of old photos and a few stills of Cai Xilei in the wooden photo frame. On an old double bed lay a middle-aged woman of about fifty, but her face was very pale and sick.
And Cai Xilei was crying silently beside the bed, and it was her mother Peng Xianglan who was lying on the hospital bed without guessing.
Peng Xianglan struggled to get up, and Cai Xilan hurriedly went up to get a pillow to put behind her. Peng Xianglan smiled at Zhang Wen and said, "You're Xilei's friend, aren't you?" You've come here, why are you still bringing things. Xi Lan quickly poured him a glass of water, by the way, why do I never seem to have seen you, how did you meet Xi Lei? ”
Zhang Wen handed the fruit bag in his hand to Cai Xilan before saying, "My name is Zhang Wen, I met her when she was performing, Auntie, are you sick?" Have you ever been to the hospital for a check-up? ”
Cai Xilan's expression darkened, "Mom said that she didn't want to go to the doctor, Mom, I beg you, you just obediently go to the hospital for a check-up." ”
Peng Xianglan looked up at her, frowned and said, "Silly girl, I said that I have nothing to do, people are a little more sick when they are old, why do you want to go to the hospital, it will be a net expense to go." ”
"Mom, I told you, I'm already working, you don't have to worry about money in the future."
Peng Xianglan said heavily, "You haven't graduated from high school, what kind of job can you get, look at the job you are looking for now as a waiter, you go out late and return early every day, how dangerous it is for a girl to do this kind of work." It's all your mother's useless drag you down, you listen to your mother's words, save the money you earn, and you can continue to study in the future. ”
Every word of the conversation between her mother and sister seemed to fall heavily on Cai Xilei's heart, and she suddenly knelt down in front of Zhang Wen and prayed, "Heavenly Master, please help my family." Whatever you want me to do, I'll promise you. ”
Zhang Wen's eyes couldn't help but be sour and red, and he nodded towards Cai Xilei before saying, "Auntie, I have acquaintances in the hospital, and I don't need money to go to the hospital for examination, so I'll take you to the hospital for a checkup tomorrow." ”
Cai Xilan's face suddenly showed a look of surprise, "Really? Thank you so much. Mom, let's go to the hospital tomorrow for a check-up. ”
A look of hesitation appeared on Peng Xianglan's face, "I'm so embarrassed, although I don't want money, I always owe others favors." ”
"Mom..." Cai Xilan was so anxious that she didn't know what to do, she had dropped out of school to work because of her mother's illness, but the current hospital charges were very expensive, and she also knew that the money for her part-time job was far from enough. Recently, she has considered curing her mother's illness no matter what work she comes out to do, and now Zhang Wen's words are undoubtedly great news for her, but her mother still refuses.
"It doesn't matter, in fact, I didn't do everything with my hands, the hospital has a fund dedicated to some poor families for treatment. If you find something wrong, you can also apply for a grant, and I can help you apply if necessary. ”
Of course, the hospital did not have this fund, and many social security benefits were not strong enough at that time. But Zhang Wen was also afraid that the mother and son would not go to treatment because of the medical expenses, so he simply found an excuse to prepare to pay for himself. Anyway, I only asked for 100,000 yuan from the Liu family today, so I should do good deeds for their family. Although the money has not yet been paid, he has never thought about whether they will give him the money.
"That's great, thank you so much, thank you so much, you are really a noble person in our family, I really don't know how to thank you." Cai Xilan was so excited that she didn't know how to express it.
"It's just a gesture, and besides, Xilei and I are also friends, and I am also your mother's junior, and they are all my own people who say that Xie Lu Xie is too outside. I've got some things to do tomorrow morning, so I'll pick you up at about one or two o'clock in the afternoon. Are you available at this time? Zhang Wen calculated the time, it didn't take too long to go to Liu Bin's house to spend Xiaoling's ghost, one morning was enough, and by the way, he went to get the 100,000 yuan back as medical expenses.
Cai Xilan hurriedly said, "We have time at any time, and we will come to us when you are done." ”
"Okay, Auntie, Xilan, I'll go back first, and I'll pick you up tomorrow." Originally, Zhang Wen wanted to keep a little money, but now he doesn't have much money on him. But he thought about it that we would meet tomorrow anyway, so there was no need to rush this.
Peng Xianglan said to Cai Xilan, "Xilan, you can send him out of the city for me." ”
Zhang Wen hurriedly refused, "No need, it's all my own people, I don't need to be so polite, I can go out by myself." ”
"It's okay, anyway, I'm going to work now, Brother Zhang Wen, I'll go out with you."
