"Xiaolinzi, why are you back again?" As soon as Lin Lao entered Zhao Datou's ward, he heard Zhao Datou's hoarse voice, which was no longer loud as before.

Boss Lin sat on the chair next to him and said, "I miss your big head, bring something and have dinner with you." ”

Zhao Datou looked at Lin Lao with a bitter face, and said self-deprecatingly: "I haven't eaten for many years, I can't swallow it, I used to drink some milk, but now I can't even drink milk!" Zhao Datou's voice became smaller and smaller, and he seemed weak. Since I can't eat, I can only rely on nutrient infusions to survive, and I can live day by day.

Lin Lao knew that Zhao Datou's disease was serious, but he didn't expect it to be so serious, he couldn't eat anything, and this esophageal cancer was more serious than his stomach cancer. After a hundred battles back then, even if he survived, none of them had old problems, otherwise there were so few old guys left now.

"Zhao Datou, I still remember that when we crossed the meadow, we didn't eat for two days and were about to starve to death. We two little red ghosts forgot about the eight disciplines, picked a few cucumbers in the yard of the villagers, and ate the fragrant ones. Looking back now, I still want to drool and feel so good to have something to eat! "Lin Lao came to visit the patient, he was simply reminiscing about the past, reminiscing bittersweet and sweet.

Zhao Datou rarely saw his old friend talk about the past, and narrowed his eyes: "Don't say it, it's really like that." ”

"If it weren't for your ghost idea, the two of us would have been punished by Elder Qin?" Zhao Datou glared, "Obviously you picked it up, it's not on me, I'm stupid, I don't know how much I lost by you!" ”

"What do you mean by having to rely on you! Did you eat it? Do you eat most cucumbers? Lin Lao asked like a child.

Zhao Datou laughed twice and said, "Then you can't say that I stole it?" At the very least, the two of them stole it together! ”

"Say you're stupid, you're really stupid, it's okay to be punished alone, why are you pulling me to be punished! At the very least, I can find you something to eat, so that you won't continue to go hungry after the punishment is over! Lin Lao quibbled, not admitting that he had once slandered Zhao Datou, that was to preserve his strength, and his reputation could not be here!

"Oh yes!" Zhao Datou felt that what Lin Lao said was very correct, he was released from confinement, and Xiao Linzi gave himself two nests.

When Xiao Li was talking to Zhao Datou, he had already taken out the chrysanthemum tea and chrysanthemum cake, and the whole ward was filled with the faint and fragrant smell of chrysanthemums.

Zhao Datou sniffled and said, "It's so fragrant!" I can't eat it, why are you bringing it here, I'm in a hurry! ”

Lin Lao decided to treat himself like when he was sick, a dead horse as a live horse doctor, and said with a smile: "After talking for so long, you're thirsty, drink some chrysanthemum tea!" Big head, I am really reluctant to give it to ordinary people, but who calls us friends of life and death! ”

Zhao Datou has not eaten a drop of water for several days, living on the nutrient solution, smelling the fragrance and wanting to drink it very much, by the way, doesn't this Xiaolinzi also have cancer, why does Xiaolinzi run around like a nobody, and go to his ward to mess around, you look at the arrogant villain. Although Zhao Datou and Lin Lao were fighting happily, anyone could feel that it was a tacit understanding between close comrades-in-arms, brothers who could block each other's guns at any time! If it weren't for the good things, Xiao Linzi wouldn't have taken them.

"Seeing that you are so pious, Lao Tzu will drink a little, which can be regarded as giving you some face. But if you can't drink it, Xiaolinzi, don't be angry, sad, who didn't die, think of our brothers, we two old guys are blessed, drove away the Japanese devils, liberated New China, and the people of the whole country lived a good life, what is there to be dissatisfied. Zhao Datou secretly guarded Lin Lao and said, knowing that Lin Lao was worried about himself.

When Lin Lao heard Zhao Datou's words, he felt like this when he was sick before, and personally took the chrysanthemum tea brought by Xiao Li, because there was no straw, he could only feed it with a spoon.

Zhao Datou saw Lin Lao so careful, he was sad for a while, Xiao Linzi was worried that he would die, he had such a comrade-in-arms in his life, and he was content to die, so he opened his mouth and took a sip of the chrysanthemum tea that Lin Lao fed. I only felt the fragrance of my lips and teeth, a burst of coolness, and the throat, which was originally blocked by nothing, was a little loose. The coolness came out of the throat, slowly sliding, slowly sliding, and the comfort slid directly into the heart and fed back to the whole brain. Although there are painkillers to relieve pain, it is still very uncomfortable. This coolness seems to be able to suppress the virus in the body, Zhao Datou, comfortably fascinated his eyes, revealing a long-lost heartfelt smile, that is the hard time, there is something to eat, that kind of unparalleled happiness.

Seeing that Zhao Datou didn't spit it out, Lin Lao immediately fed a few more spoonfuls, and Zhao Datou could swallow it, and that cool feeling lingered all over his body. After a while, most of the bowl of chrysanthemum tea was drunk.

"Xiaolinzi, thank you, I haven't eaten or drunk for several days. It felt so good to be able to eat, at that time the Heavenly Sword was hard, there was nothing to eat, and it was uncomfortable to be hungry; Now I have something to eat, but my health is not good, and I can't eat. I still want to drink, you can pour me some more. Zhao Datou said with red circles in his eyes, his heart was much more comfortable, he felt so good to be full, and his whole body was refreshing.

Lin Lao personally poured half a bowl for Zhao Datou and said, "You drink it well, and you will eat some chrysanthemum cake later." When I was sick, I had an appetite when I saw this chrysanthemum cake, and maybe you could eat some of it. ”

Zhao Datou, who drank another bowl of chrysanthemum tea, felt that his throat seemed to be cleared, and his stomach gradually felt hungry, and said: "Okay, if I can eat, my brother and I won't wait in the hospital to die, go directly to your house, and we can get together!" ”

At this time, Zhao Datou's son Zhao Xuyang and daughter-in-law Xu Liping came in and led their nine-year-old grandson Zhao Lingyun. But Zhao Xuyang heard his father Zhao Datou's words, who was going to move to Lin Laona. Uncle Lin, who is also sick now, has no energy to take care of his father.

"Dad, you can't go anywhere, stay in the hospital, this is the best hospital, and it will definitely cure your illness." Zhao Xuyang said worriedly, his mother died early, when he was very young, Zhao Datou took himself and depended on each other, and now he has a small family, but his father is ······

Xu Liping also stepped forward and said with concern: "Dad, you just take care of your body, I stay at Uncle Lin's house, Uncle Lin's body is just a little better, I can't take care of you!" ”

Zhao Datou also knew that his son and daughter-in-law were for his own good, so he nodded without speaking, and Lin Lao just tried, and he couldn't figure out why his body was miraculously better.

"Grandpa, in your room, it's so fragrant!" Usually Zhao Datou hurts Zhao Lingyun, and Zhao Lingyun, a little guy, is also very good at sticking to grandpa Zhao Datou, and as soon as he enters the door, he runs to his grandfather's bedside.

Zhao Datou touched his grandson's little face, and said with a kind smile: "Your Grandpa Lin brought delicious things to Grandpa, and Ling Yun also has a share!" ”

Lin Lao took out two chrysanthemum cakes, one for Zhao Lingyun and one for himself, tore a small piece, and handed it to Zhao Datou's mouth.

"No, Uncle Lin, I know you mean well, but my father can't eat anything now, and if he chokes, it won't be good." Zhao Xuyang said worriedly, all the doctors said so, you can't come nonsense.

Lin Lao turned his face and said, "Xuyang, you grew up with me, Uncle Lin has no children, and he has treated you as his own son since he was a child." Your father and I are brothers who have made friends, and Uncle Lin will not harm your father. You see your dad hasn't eaten for so many years, and now he's drunk nearly a bowl of chrysanthemum tea, and now he's hungry and wants to eat something. You can't make your dad comfortable and fulfill his wishes. ”

Zhao Xuyang had just come over from the doctor, and he knew that his father didn't have much time, and his heart was gloomy. Touching his father's earnest eyes, he nodded, his father, who was like a mountain, had never looked at himself with such kind and earnest eyes as he did now.

"Okay, Father can eat whatever he wants!" Zhao Xuyang nodded, turned his face, a dignified seven-foot man, in a place where others can't reach, wipe away his tears, can't cry, his father is sick in bed, his son is still young, he is now the pillar of the family, and he can't be fragile.

Lin Lao took the chrysanthemum cake and put a small piece in Zhao Datou's mouth. Zhao Datou closed his mouth, carefully savored the taste of things, and the taste buds on his tongue sensitively recognized the fragrance of things, soft and glutinous, and the chrysanthemum cake, which was originally solid, seemed to turn into liquid in an instant, and swallowed it very smoothly until it was empty stomach.

Zhao Datou, who drank chrysanthemum tea just now, didn't speak hoarsely like just now, and said, "It's delicious, thank you, Xiaolinzi." ”

Zhao Lingyun knew that his grandfather couldn't eat, but he didn't know why he couldn't eat. Now that I saw that my grandfather could eat it, I thought that my grandfather liked to eat chrysanthemum cake very much, looked at the chrysanthemum cake that had been bitten twice, and said, "Grandpa, since you like to eat this, Lingyun won't eat it, give it all to grandpa." After speaking, he obediently tore a piece and put it in Zhao Datou's mouth.

Zhao Xuyang saw that his father really swallowed what Uncle Lin fed, and his son also fed his father a few bites, and was pleasantly surprised, if he could eat, his father's illness would improve.

"Doctor, doctor······" Zhao Xuyang vigorously pushed open the door and told the doctor the good news, and hoped that the doctor could cure his father's illness.

The doctor was also very surprised to look at the chrysanthemum cake while eating, and after feeding it to prevent choking, Zhao Lingyun also took a few spoonfuls of chrysanthemum tea and fed it. The doctor took the case, as well as the film taken yesterday, how can he not believe it, the disease is like that, the esophagus is completely wasted, and he can still eat? Rubbing his eyes again, he witnessed Zhao Datou eating a big chrysanthemum cake and a glass of water.

"We have to check General Zhao before we can know the specific situation." The doctor wiped the cold sweat on his face, which was obviously a good thing, but he was in a big mess in his head, and if there was a misdiagnosis, it would be a big deal.
