When Yuan Laohan took out a ring that looked extremely ordinary from the box and handed it to Li Xiaohu, Li Xiaohu hurriedly waved his hand and said, "What? I can't ask for this thing. ”

Yuan Laohan smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, it's not gold, it's worthless." ”

Li Xiaohu took it and asked curiously, "Copper?" ”

Yuan Laohan nodded, "Well, I don't have anything else to do, this little object is for you, firstly, as a thought, and secondly, this is also the most valuable thing in my hand." ”

As he spoke, Yuan Laohan grabbed Li Xiaohu's hand: "You come and try it." ”

Li Xiaohu glanced at the ring.

It's a ring, but it looks more like a small copper ring.

If you look closely, there seems to be a small word on the face.

After wearing it on the finger.

I didn't expect the size to be just right.

Yuan Laohan smiled slightly, and then said to Li Xiaohu: "Xiaohu, you have to put this thing away." ”

"Don't look at this gadget, it's worth more than my life."

Li Xiaohu asked casually half-jokingly: "Old man, this thing was left to you by your wife, right?" ”

Yuan Laohan gave Li Xiaohu a roll of his eyes.

Then he said slowly: "When I was fighting, I cut it with a bullet. ”

"Okay, just wear it anyway."

Li Xiaohu heard that it was copper, and he was not polite, so he put it on his hand.

In the evening, Li Xiaohu went to Li Xiaohua's house.

The last treatment for Li Xiaohua is over.

Li Xiaohu returned to his room early and fell asleep.

Early the next morning.

He got some Chinese medicinal herbs in Wang Sufang's clinic.

Alone, he went to the county seat to treat Liu Sheng's daughter Liu Meng for psoriasis.

Nine o'clock.

Li Xiaohu got out of the car.

Because he didn't eat breakfast, he went to the beef noodle restaurant next to the station to prepare to eat first, and then go to Liu Sheng's house.

Li Xiaohu rarely comes to the county seat.

The last time I came, it was two years ago when my grandfather died, and he came to the county seat to buy paper goods.

Come to the noodle shop.

Li Xiaohu ordered a bowl, looking at the noodle soup in the bowl, which was clear, white, red and green, he instantly had an appetite.

Just as he had eaten one bowl and was about to eat the second bowl, he didn't expect an old woman in her fifties, wearing a shabby coat and carrying a large plastic bag with many cans in it, walked into the noodle shop.

When the young lady sitting at the cash register saw this, her face instantly showed a disgusted expression.

"What to eat?" The cashier asked coldly.

The aunt opened her mouth and asked tentatively: "Girl, how much do you have beef noodles and meat here?" ”

The cashier looked at the aunt: "Add meat?" Oh, eight pieces of noodles and seven pieces of meat, for a total of fifteen pieces. ”

The aunt nodded, and took out the crumpled fifteen yuan from her trouser pocket: "Here, bring me one." ”

"My son wants to eat, he's sick, and I'm going to bring it over."

Until this time.

Li Xiaohu suddenly remembered that the woman in front of him turned out to be Li Zhong's mother Song Hua, Ma Lan's mother-in-law.

Since the death of their son, Ma Lan's in-laws have come to the county to work.

I haven't been back to the village for two or three years.

Although they had two sons, Li Zhong and their eldest son were simply indistinguishable.

The eldest son is filial, popular in the village, and practical and capable.

But Li Zhong ......

In this case, Lijia Village has undoubtedly become a sad place for the old couple.

As soon as Song Hua finished speaking, the cashier said: "Pack it and take it away and give it another piece." ”

When Song Hua heard this, he immediately looked embarrassed: "Ah...... I want another piece...... I ......"

Apparently.

Song Hua only had fifteen yuan left.

Seeing this, Li Xiaohu hurriedly got up: "Auntie, you come over first." ”

As he spoke, Li Xiaohu took out the money from himself and handed it to the cashier.

"Two more bowls, meat and eggs."

The cashier saw that Li Xiaohu and Song Hua knew each other, so he didn't say anything.

Li Xiaohu pulled Song Hua to his location.

Song Hua glanced at Li Xiaohu.

"You...... Are you a little tiger? ”

Li Xiaohu nodded.

"Yes, Auntie, it's me. By the way, is Li Zhong better? ”

Song Hua instantly burst into tears, wiped his tears, choked up and said, "Alas...... It's not good yet. ”

"All day long, the gods are babbling nonsense, and all the money we have saved in the past two years has been spent."

"The child will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow, and he has been clamoring to eat beef noodles, so I secretly came over to sell a bowl."

Li Xiaohu frowned slightly.

Li Zhong's situation, he couldn't be clearer.

It's just that I'm scared, as long as I calm down and slow down for a few days, I can heal.

How is it possible to spend so much money?

Thinking like this, Li Xiaohu asked Song Hua seriously: "Auntie, where is Li Zhong going to see a doctor?" ”

Song Hua wiped his tears and said, "In our county Aihua Hospital." ”

Li Xiaohu frowned, and hurriedly asked, "Why didn't you go to the county hospital?" Didn't you send it to the county hospital at that time? ”

Song Hua wiped his tears and said, "After being sent to the county hospital, the doctor checked and said that it would be good to rest well. ”

"But after we sent the child out, we didn't expect the child to go to the toilet at the stadium in front of us and quarrel with the security guard of Aihua Hospital."

"The two of them fought, and then Aihua Hospital came forward, and after seeing my son's condition, he said that the situation was very serious, so he asked us to take the child to his side to see a doctor."

"The child hit someone, we were at a loss, and the attitude of the people was so good, thinking that the child was still talking nonsense, we sent it over."

"Unexpectedly, after the past, the child's condition has not improved, but has become more and more serious......

Li Xiaohu pushed the beef noodles in front of Song Hua.

Let Song Hua eat something first.

At the same time, he said bluntly to Song Hua: "Auntie, eat first, don't be sad first, I'll accompany you over to take a look later." ”

Li Xiaohu knew about Aihua Hospital.

This is the only private hospital in Hua County.

I heard that the owner of the hospital had been in a psychiatric hospital in Beijing before.

After making a lot of money, he returned to his hometown and set up this hospital in Huaxian.

Many mentally ill patients in nearby counties will choose to come to this hospital for treatment.

Before, Li Xiaohu thought that the owner of the hospital was good.

But now it seems that there must be something else going on in this matter.

When Song Hua heard this, he waved his hand at Li Xiaohu and said, "Forget it, what else are you going to see?" ”

"My dad just scraped together enough medical expenses today, and when he goes through the discharge procedures in the afternoon, we will send Li Zhong back tomorrow."

"By the way, Xiaohu, Ma Lan...... Is she okay? ”

Li Xiaohu nodded, "It's the same." ”

Song Hua didn't say much, just sighed helplessly.

The two finished eating.

Li Xiaohu accompanied Song Hua out.

Song Hua carried the beef noodles packed for Li Zhong, and as soon as he went out, he told Li Xiaohu again: "Xiaohu, don't go, listen to your aunt." ”

Li Xiaohu saw Song Hua's embarrassed expression.

I couldn't help but ask curiously: "Auntie, do you have something unspeakable?" ”

Song Hua said helplessly: "You just listen to your aunt, you go over, I'm afraid that you will make trouble with your uncle." ”
