Chapter Seventy-One: Worry (Asking for Tickets, Asking for Collections)
Grandpa Jiang went into the room to get his mobile phone, and several adults outside looked at each other, their eyes blinking and blinking, and their eyebrows picking and picking, not knowing what to say.
Uncle Jiang sniffed the smell of fragrant meat in Jiang Xiao's house, which made his stomach a little hungry, and he couldn't help asking.
"Xiaoxiao, what kind of meat did your family eat today, so fragrant?"
After asking, he looked at the surprised expressions of the people around him, as if to say why he was so thick-skinned, is this the time to say these words on this occasion?
Uncle Jiang touched his nose in embarrassment and laughed.
Jiang Xiao also thought of what Aunt Jiang said just now, so he thought of explaining it.
After all, the smell of braised duck claws wafting out these days is not covered, and everyone who passes by Jiang Xiao's house can smell this fragrant smell of meat, rather than letting them guess and think all the time, it is better to say it directly.
"Uncle, my family doesn't eat meat tonight, those are braised duck feet, I'll get them out and sell them in the town tomorrow."
Jiang Xin, she walked to the kitchen, put a few braised duck claws with chopsticks and put them on a clean plate, and put them out for them to see.
"Shhh...... It smells so good! ”
"Is this for sale?"
Jiang Xiaoji's freshly baked braised duck claws, the taste is a little sweet and a little spicy, which is very tempting, looking at the braised duck claws in the dim light, the stomachs of several people who have just eaten dinner seem to be hungry again.
swallowed the saliva in his mouth fiercely, couldn't take his eyes off, and exclaimed.
"It's so fragrant, no wonder you can take it out and sell it!"
"Uncles, aunts and aunts can try it, Grandpa Jiang Tian, you can also taste it and see if it suits your taste."
"It's all for sale, and my family definitely doesn't have the luxury of eating meat for a meal."
Jiang Novel.
"Eh, yes!"
"Then I'll taste ......"
Hearing Jiang Xiao say this, these people immediately burst into laughter.
After smelling the smell for so long, they were already hungry, so they quickly reached out and twisted one and put it in their mouths.
Grandpa Jiang Tian also nodded, and reached out to pick up a braised duck claw, but Aunt Jiang Liu snorted coldly, didn't even look at it, and felt extremely embarrassed.
"Village chief, I'll go back first."
After saying a word to Grandpa Jiang Tian, he left, and after leaving the courtyard of Jiang Xiao's house, he slammed the door shut, making a loud noise.
Jiang Xiao: ......
Uncle Jiang and the others also looked at each other a few times, raised their eyebrows, and the duck claws in their mouths blocked them from speaking, Grandpa Jiang Tian's eyes were gloomy, and his outstretched hand was withdrawn.
At this time, Grandpa Jiang turned out the mobile phone at the bottom of the box and hurriedly walked out of the room, and Grandma Jiang in the house also looked at Grandpa Jiang with tears in her eyes, worried about her son.
Grandpa Jiang Tian immediately got up and said to Grandpa Jiang: "Since the matter has been resolved, we will go back first, if something really happens to Daming, just say what happened, our Jiangjia Village will always be their backing." ”
"Uh-huh."
"Yes, yes, yes."
Uncle Jiang and the others couldn't get out of their mouths after eating duck claws, so they nodded violently with a few vague words in their mouths, and followed along.
Grandpa Jiang couldn't take care of them, waved his hand and watched them go out, and didn't send it away, and after the people left, he took out his mobile phone, Jiang Xiao hurriedly took it, turned out Jiang Mingcheng's mobile phone number, and then took out his mobile phone and began to enter it.
Doodoo ......
Far away in a hospital in Guangdong Province, outside the ward full of the smell of disinfectant water, Jiang's father, who was dressed in mud clothes, was much older, but he had just reached the age of forty, and white silk had already appeared on his head.
He cautiously looked at the glass at the door, stretched out his hand to wipe away the exhaled white mist, and looked at the figure on the hospital bed with concern through the glass.
At this time, the mobile phone on his clothes rang, waking him up, he quickly turned around and left in a hurry, touched the mobile phone in his hand and didn't look at it, answered the phone and hung it in his ear and nodded hurriedly.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'll be there soon, I'll be back right away."
Jiang Mingcheng's job is to work on the construction site, the construction schedule is very tight, and he also turns on the lights at night to work the night shift, he takes advantage of the period of rest for dinner, and comes all the way to the hospital to see his wife and prepare dinner for her.
Now that the call came, it must have started work, and the foreman didn't find his reason, so Jiang Mingcheng hurried to the construction site.
He can't afford to lose this job, absolutely not!
A somewhat familiar old voice suddenly came out of the mobile phone hanging in his ear, which made Jiang Mingcheng's footsteps pause, and his eyes couldn't help but burst into tears.
"Da Ming, ......"
"Dad......"
Jiang Mingcheng called out hesitantly, he hurriedly took down the mobile phone in his ear and looked at the number, which was an unfamiliar mobile phone number.
"It's me." Grandpa Jiang nodded and said.
It's just that Jiang Mingcheng, who is far away in the provincial capital, can't see it, "Why did you change this mobile phone number, is it okay at home?" Still have money to eat? Is the child making trouble? ”
After a series of words came out, Grandpa Jiang's eyes also welled up with tears, he sniffed his nose and hurriedly said, "Okay, okay, everything is fine." ”
"What about you, is something wrong with Xuelan, tell me honestly!"
Hearing this, Jiang Mingcheng was taken aback and couldn't help asking, "Dad, you know?" ”
A few days ago, Jiang Mingcheng, who had been working, received a call from the hospital, saying that his wife had an accident, and he rushed over to see Zhou Xuelan lying motionless on the hospital bed with a pale face.
Originally, Jiang Mingcheng also wanted to call to tell his family, but after the phone was called, he regretted it, but fortunately, the phone was dialed and sent a voice message that was shut down in arrears.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
And why should you tell these things to your home thousands of miles away?
There are only elderly and sick parents and young and ignorant children in the family, and telling them these things will only make them worry, and they can't do anything else but worry, so why bother.
So Jiang Mingcheng only called a few relatives who owed money, told them that something happened and could not repay the money in time, and begged them not to tell their families.
But listening to the phone call from the old father now, do they know?
"Hurry up and say, what's going on? What's wrong with Xue Lan, what's wrong with her? Is there enough money for treatment? ”
Knowing his son Mo Ruo's father, hearing Jiang Mingcheng's rhetorical question, Grandpa Jiang knew that there was nothing false about this, they really had an accident.
Jiang Mingcheng's dry lips were like saws, running up and down, stinging pain, and he hesitated for a while before he opened his mouth to tell the matter.
"Xue Lan was overworked in the factory and vomited blood, now she is in the hospital, there are doctors, it's nothing serious, don't worry."
