In the ninth chapter of "Chapters and Verses of Dedication" of "Mencius", it is said: If you are poor, you will be good to yourself, and if you are good, you will help the world.

When Silly Zhu used to be a chef in a rolling mill, although his income was good, he spent money lavishly, and he had to support his sister, but he also helped Qin Huairu's family from time to time.

This alone is enough to see the character of the stupid pillar, although he does not accumulate virtue on weekdays, and there is a slight loss in the subsection, but the moral character is still worthy of a thumbs up.

Since he followed Wang Zhong and his sister to open the Peony Building, after the day into the gold, the silly pillar also has surplus money in his pocket, and the days are getting more and more prosperous, although there are three sons and a daughter, and the head of the family has a large population, but the income of the Peony Building is enough to supply the expenses of the family, and there is a lot of surplus.

Now in the entire courtyard, except for Wang Chong's family, the Silly Zhu family is living the most prosperous life.

Not long after, after consulting Wang Chong and He Yushui, he took out 30% of the annual net profit of the Peony Building and set up a scholarship fund to subsidize the children from poor families in the southwest mountainous areas who have no conditions to go to school but are eager to go to school.

Silly Zhu originally wanted to donate the money directly to the local government or school, but after Wang Zhong knew Silly Zhu's thoughts, he immediately persuaded him, if the money was really donated directly to the local government or school, could it be used by those really poor children.

The stupid pillar is not the simple virgin white lotus who has never seen the world, he has been mixed in the rolling mill for so many years, and those stupid pillars are clear in his heart, but he is not willing to mix.

After a while, under Wang Chong's suggestion, such a scholarship fund was established, and the candidates for funding were all stupid Zhu and Wang Chong's party to personally go to the rural areas in the southwest mountainous areas to inspect and screen, and the funding was not directly given to the children or their parents, but in the form of materials, tuition, tuition and miscellaneous fees, and living expenses were used on the children.

Although it is cumbersome, it can prevent the money from being used elsewhere to a certain extent.

Silly Zhu also felt cumbersome at first, but when he went a few times and was kowtowed to thank the sponsored children and their parents in person, he almost didn't move Silly Zhu, an authentic old Beiping tough guy, to tears.

The two of them were busy with the Peony Building and the student fund, and they had to take time to raise their four children, and they couldn't wait to break the time in half to spend it, and they didn't have time to pay attention to the mess in the courtyard.

In the past few years, He Daqing's health has not been very good, after all, he is old, his body is not as good as before, what kind of illness and pain all of a sudden gushed out, fortunately, He Daqing has been a cook all year round, there is no shortage of oil and water, and there is no shortage of spoons, the foundation is not bad, although there are some minor illnesses and pains, but it is not life-threatening.

Quadrangle, the front yard of the old Wang's house.

Qin Jingru sat on the sofa and watched TV, the rebroadcast of the 83 version of Journey to the West was played on TV, although it is old, it is a classic that people never get tired of watching, Qin Jingru has already watched it no less than ten times, but she still watches it with relish.

Wang Zhong picked up a banana and peeled it and put it in his mouth, not forgetting to say: "Your cousin is still lying in the hospital, and you still have the heart to watch TV!" ”

Qin Jingru said angrily: "Birth, old age, sickness and death are human nature, is it possible that I still have to be scared, unable to eat, and unable to sleep!" ”

"Besides, isn't there Xiaodang and Huaihua in the hospital! I'm not a doctor, so it's useless to worry. ”

"If you have time, you might as well go to the hospital!" Wang Chongdao.

Qin Jingru heard that Wang Chong's voice was wrong, turned his head to look at Wang Chong and asked, "What do you mean?" ”

Wang Chongdao: "If you become ill from hard work, once it breaks out, your cousin is afraid that you won't be able to get through this hurdle." ”

Qin Jingru was stunned for a moment, and asked in disbelief: "Not really!" She usually looks very good, but I didn't hear her say anything wrong? ”

Wang Chongdao: "No matter how good her body is, she can't help it from tossing so much, serving two old people every day, and taking care of her granddaughter, not to mention that your cousin is so old, even if she is beaten with iron, she can't bear it." ”

Qin Jingru was silent, lowered her head, her eyes flickered, and she raised her eyes to look at Wang Chong again: "How long is it going to be?" ”

"More than one month, as little as ten days and a half months!" Wang Chongdao: "How long it can last depends on her heart." ”

"So serious?" Qin Jingru's pupils shrank, Qin Huairu is a three-five-year saint, and she is only sixty-three years old this year, but she looks like an old lady in her seventies and eighties, the years have left too deep marks on her body, and her hair has already been dyed silver.

"Then why don't you tell them?" Qin Jingru said.

"Can they believe me when I say it?" Wang Chong said angrily, although they knew that Wang Chong knew some medical skills, they didn't think that Wang Chong's medical skills were so clever at all.

"Hey!" Qin Jingru didn't know how to answer, so she could only sigh helplessly.

"Then I'll go to the hospital!" As he spoke, he was about to get up.

Wang Zhong threw the leftover banana peel into the trash, and then stood up and said, "I'll drive you!" ”

At night, it is not convenient to take a taxi in the alley.

Wang Chong drove Qin Jingru all the way to Xiehe, and did not forget to call Wang Xinyi on the way.

With Wang Xinyi's help in arranging, Qin Huairu can save a lot of trouble and spend a lot of money when he lives in Xiehe.

When the two of them rushed to the ward, Wang Xinyi happened to be there, but Wang Xinyi was wearing casual clothes at this time.

Qin Huairu was lying on the hospital bed, her face was pale, and she was talking to Wang Xinyi, and Huaihua was sitting next to her.

"Auntie, uncle!"

"Dad! Mother! ”

When Huaihua and Wang Xinyi saw the two of them coming in, they took the initiative to greet the two.

Qin Huairu saw Wang Chong and the two, and a smile appeared on his face: "It's here!" ”

Wang Xinyi and Huaihua hurriedly got up and gave up the small stool for Wang Zhong to sit with Qin Jingru.

Qin Jingru grabbed Qin Huairu's hand and asked with concern: "Cousin!" How does it feel? ”

"Much better!" Qin Huairu squeezed out a somewhat reluctant smile, not only was her face pale, but her eyes were also dim, like a candle flame that could be extinguished at any time.

If Wang Chong hadn't said it, Qin Jingru really hadn't noticed this.

"It's so late, why are you running here!" Qin Huairu's tone was blaming, but he was a little weak.

Qin Jingru said: "We are idle at home, so we want to come over to see you and chat with you, so that you don't have to lie down all day long." ”

Wang Chong looked at Huaihua and asked, "Why are you the only one, what about your sister?" ”

Huaihua said: "My sister is home, she will come for me in the evening, and my sister-in-law will come over for her tomorrow morning!" ”

Now Qin Huairu needs someone to take care of her, and Yi Zhonghai and Jia Zhang's family at home also need someone to take care of them, and they can't do without people around them.

Wang Chong said: "If you are really busy, hire a nurse!" ”

"I told them that there are nurses in the hospital, and I don't need anyone to accompany them, but they just don't listen and have to come to accompany them." Although Qin Huairu's tone was a little blameful, the relief in her eyes betrayed her.

"Mom! Don't worry, our sisters and sister-in-law will take turns to come over and come over. "Sophora flower road.

"You still have to go to work during the day!" Qin Huairu said.

Qin Jingru helped persuade: "Cousin, don't worry about it, Huaihua is a mother, and she is not a child, they know it in their own hearts, what you have to do now is to recuperate with peace of mind and recover your body, which is better than anything else." ”

“······”

As soon as I heard that Qin Huairu fainted and went to the hospital, the neighbors also went to visit, I have to say that Qin Huairu's reputation in the courtyard is still good, especially after Wang Chong's little butterfly instigated its wings, the stick terrier did not follow Xu Damao as in the original book, and offended many people.

And Qin Huairu herself has been widowed for Jia Dongxu for many years, and she has worked hard to support her mother-in-law and three children, which is really admirable.

Originally, Liu Guangfu was looking for Silly Zhu and wanted to sell the house to Silly Zhu and raise the price a little higher, but just in time for Qin Huairu's matter, the neighbors lived in the neighborhood, and with the temper of Silly Zhu and Ran Qiuye, it was absolutely impossible to sit idly by and ignore this kind of thing.

Not to mention anything else, only in the past few days, the food of Qin Huairu's family has been brought over by Silly Zhu and Ran Qiuye from the Peony Building, and Silly Zhu has also helped the stick terrier take care of Yi Zhonghai who is paralyzed in bed at home.

It's just that the stupid Zhu family was busy helping the Jia family, where did they have time to bargain with Liu Guangfu, so they simply hung Liu Guangfu up.

In the following half a month, Qin Huairu woke up, woke up, and spent most of the day in a daze, from the point of view of traditional Chinese medicine, her internal organs were already full of holes, her body was leaking like a sieve, and her vitality had been scattered.

Until this day, early in the morning, Qin Huairu was surprisingly sober, and her spirit was much better with the naked eye, and even her voice was much louder.

Xiaodang was very surprised at first, thinking that a miracle had happened, and he was about to call a doctor in a hurry, but Qin Huairu stretched out his hand to hold him and shook his head to stop it.

Qin Huairu looked at Xiao Dang and said: "I know my body, call your brother and them, ask them to come over, I have something to explain." ”

"I'll call right away." Although Xiaodang agreed, he still called the doctor over, until he heard the words "return to light" from the doctor's mouth, and Xiaodang's expectation in his heart also turned into loss.

In addition to calling the stick terrier and Huaihua, Xiaodang also called Qin Jingru and Ran Qiuye.

It didn't take long for everyone to gather at the hospital.

After Qin Huairu explained the aftermath to the stick terrier and her two daughters, she kicked them out of the ward.

Looking at Wang Chong and Qin Jingru standing by the window, Qin Huairu showed a smile on his face again: "The most correct thing I have done in my life is to introduce Jingru to you!" ”

If it was usual, hearing this, Qin Jingru couldn't help but have to laugh with Qin Huairu, but at this moment, Qin Jingru, who knew Qin Huairu's situation, was in no mood to say anything else.

"All this time, I didn't have time to say thank you to you."

"Thank you, cousin!" Qin Jingru held Qin Huairu's hand and said sincerely.

Qin Huairu looked at Wang Zhong behind Qin Jingru and asked, "Don't you have anything to tell me?" ”

Wang Chong said: "What is there to say, I can't say that I wish you a smooth journey!" ”

Qin Huairu smiled dumbly: "It's not impossible." ”

Wang Chongdao: "Actually, I have always admired you, for so many years, you are a woman, for the sake of the children, with decades of hard work, without the slightest complaint!" ”

As he spoke, Wang Chong's voice changed: "Actually, sometimes I'm also curious, after so many years, have you ever thought about finding another one?" ”

Qin Huairu still looked at Wang Chong: "I am a woman, with three children, and a mother-in-law, how can anyone look down on me!" ”

When he said this, the gloom and regret in Qin Huairu's eyes flashed.

Wang Chongdao: "It's not bad from the beginning, although it is a little hard, but there is still a clear name." ”

Qin Huairu shook his head and said, "What is the name of the unknown!" I don't care. ”

"Thank you, Wang Chong!" Qin Huairu's voice suddenly changed and thanked Wang Chong.

"Thank you for what I did!" Wang Chongdao.

Qin Huairu said: "Thank you for your help for so many years. ”

"Then you should thank Jingru!"

Qin Jingru hurriedly said: "Cousin, don't be so polite with me." ”

After Qin Huairu smiled, his expression gradually became solemn, "Jingru, Wang Chong, my time is running out." ”

"Xiaodang is smart, Huaihua is steady, the only thing I can't rest assured in my heart now is the stick terrier, he is impatient, and he is frizzy and frizzy when doing things, and he is not stable enough."

"I want to trouble you, after I leave, help with some stick terriers, don't let him make trouble."

Wang Chongdao: "If you want to say anything else, I really don't dare to promise you, but you can rest assured that as long as I am by my side, I will not let him be impulsive." ”

Qin Huairu didn't want to ask Wang Chong and Qin Jingru to help take care of the stick terrier, but now Wang Chong is no longer the high-spirited factory director of the past, and Qin Huairu knows Wang Chong's temper very well, Wang Chong is not the kind of person who helps relatives and does not help.

With Wang Chong's assurance, Qin Huairu finally breathed a sigh of relief, although Wang Chong couldn't follow the stick terrier all the time and watch, but as long as Wang Zhong was on the side, the stick terrier would definitely not be impulsive.

Not long after explaining, Qin Huairu completely closed her eyes on the hospital bed.

The three brothers and sisters helped with the funeral, and the neighbors in the courtyard also rushed to help.

Sixty-three years old, if you put it aside in the old social period, it is already considered a high life, in fact, it is not young at this age, but whether it is Yi Zhonghai or Jia Zhang, the age is much older than Qin Huairu, so in comparison, people naturally can't help but sigh.

Some people even said that Qin Huairu was tired to death because he took care of Yi Zhonghai and Jia Zhang.

Qin Huairu herself is a disease of hard work, and what she has done for so many years is seen by her neighbors, as soon as this rumor came out, it naturally won people's high recognition.

It's just that it's been passed on, and these words can't help but reach the ears of Jia Zhang and Yi Zhonghai.
