At two o'clock in the morning, the cold wind blew off the yellow leaves outside the hospital window, and the few remaining leaves stubbornly hugged the branches, like a child who was reluctant to be embraced by his mother. The bustling city of Springs has fallen asleep, and only the street lamps are still lighting the way home for those who have left home.

Outside the ICU ward of the provincial hospital, a middle-aged woman sits in a cold chair with her hair scattered, her tear-stained face full of sluggishness and confusion. The initial treatment cost of 300,000 yuan was thrown on her shoulders like a boulder.

She is just an ordinary rural woman, who helps her husband take care of the factory on weekdays, washes and scrubs, moves and lifts, and her husband is in charge of the business. In the past few years, life has just gotten better, and they are also preparing to pay off the loan this year and take a break from the house in the spring of next year. But today, accidents followed, first the news that a whole carload of pigs was cheated, and the loss was as high as more than 400,000. At dinner in the evening, the husband, who had borrowed wine to drown his sorrows, suddenly suffered a cerebral hemorrhage, and with the help of the villagers, he was sent here overnight.

After emergency surgery, she was admitted to the ICU, and her life was temporarily saved, but the doctor's words made her heart cold. The husband has not completely gotten rid of the danger, and the initial treatment fee is 300,000 yuan, which will be handed over when he goes to work tomorrow, otherwise it will affect the follow-up treatment.

Affecting the significance of follow-up treatment, she knows very well in her heart that this is to let her choose to save or not. Save, where does the money come from? The loan of 200,000 yuan is about to expire, and the family's only 20,000 yuan has just been handed over to the hospital. After a few phone calls, this simple rural woman fell into a long silence, with only tears flowing silently.

There was the sound of clattering footsteps in the stairwell, and a tall teenager appeared in the hallway, looked left and right, and saw his mother on a bench outside the ICU room. In the dim light, the thin figure of the middle-aged woman leaned helplessly against the corner, her dull face full of despair. The tall boy strode up to the middle-aged woman, and she didn't even notice it.

"Mother!"

Liu Mei habitually agreed, subconsciously got up, turned her head to see her son, and quickly wiped the tears on her face with her sleeve.

"Stone, why are you here?"

"My second uncle sent me, how is my father?"

Liu Mei calmed down.

"After the surgery, the doctor said that the treatment should be continued. You don't have to worry about this, there is a mother here, you go back first, you have to go to school tomorrow. ”

Little Stone sat next to his mother.

"Mother, is my dad in a bad situation? Or lack of money? ”

Liu Mei glanced at her son, who was already a lot taller than herself, and knew that she couldn't hide it from him.

"The doctor said that the initial medical expenses will be 300,000, and I am trying to figure out a way!"

"Mother, didn't you borrow money?"

Liu Mei was silent, 300,000 is not a small amount, although everyone's life is better now. But not many households can come up with much cash. And with everyone's part-time work, the affection between people is getting weaker and weaker. There is even a saying in rural areas that "borrowing from the poor does not borrow from the sick", because many people fail to repay the money they borrow after falling ill. Children and grandchildren are more reasonable, but those who are unreasonable do not admit their accounts at all, especially if their children and grandchildren are not at home for a long time.

Xiaoshi took out a small handkerchief from his arms and handed it to Liu Mei.

"Mother, this is 10,000 yuan, you take it first."

Liu Mei took the handkerchief and asked in surprise.

"Stones, where did the money come from?"

"Given by the second uncle"

"Stone, how can you ask for the second uncle's money, your second uncle was also deceived by others this time and lost more than 100,000 yuan. The conditions of his family are not good, and your second aunt also spends a lot of money every month. Quick, get it back for your second uncle in a while. ”

Xiaoshi didn't take the 10,000 yuan.

"Mother, you take it first! The second uncle said that it was important to save people, and the second aunt agreed. ”

Liu Mei didn't know what to say with the money in her hands, the second uncle was not the child's uncle, but a cousin, who used to work on their pig farm. Later, his daughter-in-law had a car accident, and his father helped him build a pig farm, and everyone worked together. Among the carloads of pigs that were deceived this time, there were also more than a dozen of him.

"Mother, you give me the phone, I'll call."

"It's so late, who are you calling?"

"Mother, don't worry about it, give me the phone first."

The "buzzing" vibration sound woke Tang Yunfeng from his sleep, he picked up his phone and saw that it was a Texas number, and his brain was excited and he quickly sat up.

"Hey, hello!"

"Brother Feng, it's me."

"Little Stone, what's wrong?"

"Brother Feng, my father was hospitalized with a cerebral hemorrhage, and now he is in the provincial hospital."

"What the doctor says, it doesn't matter if Uncle Huzi wants it."

"I have already had surgery and am now in the ICU ward, where I need further treatment."

"How much does it cost?"

"The doctor said that the preliminary treatment fee is 300,000 yuan, so I will pay it at work tomorrow."

"Send me the card number, I'll go forward early tomorrow morning, you tell your aunt, let her not worry, I'll figure out the money."

"Okay, Brother Feng, I'll send you the card number in a moment."

"You accompany your aunt first, and ask the doctor tomorrow if Uncle Huzi needs someone to accompany you, if you do, I'll go back."

"Hmm."

"Okay, don't worry, don't think about it, I have a brother!"

"I see, Brother Feng."

Tang Yunfeng hung up the phone, looked at the balance in the bank card, and couldn't sleep for a long time with his head in his hands. Uncle Hu Zi is considered to be young from his father, two years younger than his father, and he has the impression that he is a very diligent and aggressive person, but his temper is not very good, and he is easy to get anxious.

Uncle Huzi's parents divorced very early, Uncle Huzi lived with his father, and his father died early, when he was a child, he often followed his father to eat and drink, and his grandparents were similar to his parents. Several times when Mom and Dad went back to their hometown, the two families would get together for dinner.

Especially when his parents had an accident, when Tang Yunfeng returned to his hometown to stay in bed, Uncle Huzi has always helped him with things inside and outside the family, and let his son Xiaoshi come over to accompany him every day.

Tang Yunfeng recalled the past in half sleep, unable to distinguish which ones were memories and which ones were dreams, and this state lasted until morning. After breakfast, he went to the Industrial and Commercial Bank outside the school, and stood there waiting for the bank to open.

Since large transfers now need to explain the reason, he has to go to the counter to handle it, and only in this way can he quickly pass the review and receive it immediately.

Thanks to the popularity of smart terminals and the digital yuan, there are now far fewer people coming to banks to do business than before. Tang Yunfeng was the first to handle the business, I heard that it was the patient's life-saving money, and the counter bank staff also accelerated the processing speed, and the business that usually takes 10 minutes to complete was completed in less than five minutes. Subsequently, the staff also reminded him to confirm with the other party on the phone.

Tang Yunfeng walked out of the bank and dialed Aunt Mei's phone, and the voice of a small stone came from the other side of the phone.

"Xiaoshi, the money has been transferred, 500,000, you ask your aunt to confirm it."

"Brother Feng, why are there so many?"

"The hospital costs 300,000 yuan, and my aunt doesn't spend money in the hospital during this time! You don't have to spend money to go to school! If the money is less, the aunt will definitely be reluctant to spend it, and she may not know how to treat herself harshly. At this time, I must reassure my aunt and take care of her own body. ”

"Brother Feng, thank you."

"What are you polite to me, take care of your mother, now you are the pillar of the family, don't let your mother worry about it anymore. You don't have to worry about the money, I'll transfer some to you in a few days. ”

It's not that Tang Yunfeng is reluctant to transfer all the money to Xiaoshi, but when he was studying finance some time ago, he took out some of the investment stocks, treasury bonds and securities, and now he only has more than 500,000 cash in his hand.

There were no classes in the first two classes this morning, and when Tang Yunfeng returned to the dormitory, they had just gotten up. Lu Yang, who was nibbling on fritters, greeted him with a whimper.

"Morning, Brother Feng, what time are we in Liangzhou today?"

"It's about one o'clock at noon!"

Tang Yunfeng replied casually, and then saw that everyone had arrived, so he said:

"I have something to discuss with you, I want to sell the conditions for activating the mission of the Alliance, just like I sold the mission strategy of "Exploring the New World" in the first place. ”

"What's the matter, Brother Feng, are you in a hurry for money?"

The reason why Han Fengxiang asked this was because they had discussed it before, and they would wait until their battle alliance was established before announcing this method, in order to see if they could grab the same battle alliance protection as Jin Ge Iron Horse.

Up to now, only the six of them knew how to activate the mission of the Battle Alliance, Colonel Ye and the feather fan scholar, Colonel Ye promised to keep it secret for them, and the fact that they kept their promise did not need to be questioned. Today, Tang Yunfeng proposed to sell the raiders, something must have happened.

Tang Yunfeng nodded: "Something happened to my hometown, and I urgently need money." ”

"Then sell it, this thing won't be hidden for long anyway, knowing it is nothing more than speeding up the speed of everyone's prestige, and it won't have much impact."

The eldest brother Ren Xia Fei was the first to express his opinion, and the others agreed. Tang Yunfeng turned his gaze to Lu Yang, this matter had to be operated by him.

"Brother Feng, I'll do it as soon as I'm done, but how much does it cost?"

"A thousand!"

This is the price after Tang Yunfeng weighs it, after all, this thing is different from the mission strategy, it is only the boss who is determined to establish a war alliance that spends money, and these people are usually not short of money.

has already transferred 500,000 yuan to Aunt Mei, which should be able to support it for a while, Tang Yunfeng is ready to take a look at the sales of this strategy, and then decide whether to cash out the financial products he invested.

After Liu Mei paid the money, she pulled her son aside and quietly asked him where the money came from. Xiao Shi told her about borrowing money from Tang Yunfeng, and told her not to worry about money.

"Are you talking about the grandson of Uncle Hai's family, the child who has been lying in the hospital bed for three years?"

Little Stone nodded.

"Didn't he just go to college? Where did you get so much money? ”

"Mother, don't ask, Brother Feng is very powerful, he said don't worry about it, don't worry. Some time ago, I also gave Grandpa Hai some money, and Grandpa Hai couldn't stop laughing. ”

"Stone, this is the money to save your father's life, you can't forget such a big affection. You have a good relationship with that child, and now that he is not at home, you often go to your grandfather's house to see if you can help. ”

"I know, mother, don't worry! You just take care of yourself and my dad. ”
