Chapter 15: Chapter 15 New Information: Early Stage Cervical Cancer!
Squeak, squeak...
Jiang Tao trudged home through the snow, his steps uneven.
He first washed his face with hot water, then poured more hot water into another foot basin to soak his feet for a while.
Only after soaking his feet did he get into bed and open his phone to find a book to read.
When he saw a book that interested him, he would bookmark it, vote for a monthly ticket, and then leave a comment.
This way, he could increase the data for the author's book and help him get better recommendations.
The author could also write with more enthusiasm, and he himself could read with more enjoyment!
That's how he spoiled the small authors on Qidian!
Soon, the time came to 12 o'clock at night.
Jiang Tao turned off the reading interface on his phone and opened the intelligence system to check for new information.
[Today's Intelligence]: You had contact with He Fang yesterday and obtained information—
He Fang is currently in the early stage of cervical cancer. Early detection and early treatment will have better results!
...
"What the hell?"
Seeing the newly refreshed information, the expression on Jiang Tao's face suddenly became tense.
Sister-in-law seemed to be doing well, but she actually had cervical cancer?
Seeing the word "cancer," Jiang Tao's heart tightened.
Fortunately, it's in the early stage!
"I have to remind Wang Ge tomorrow! This thing can't be ignored!"
"Discovering it late can be a matter of life and death!"
As the information showed, the earlier cervical cancer is treated, the better the treatment effect, and it can even be cured.
The later it is discovered, the more difficult it is to treat, and the higher the mortality rate!
"When I make money another day, I have to let Mother and Xu Li, as well as Mother-in-law and Sister-in-law, get the nine-valent vaccine!"
"This thing is really..."
"Life is unpredictable. Sister-in-law looked like she was doing so well, how could she..."
Although he didn't get any information about making money today, Jiang Tao didn't feel like he lost out.
He and Wang Lianming were from the same village and had worked together for more than 6 years, and their relationship was like that of real brothers.
He Fang was also very good to Jiang Tao.
Every time they made jiaozi, they would call Jiang Tao over to eat together.
When they steamed buns or fried meatballs, Wang Lianming would also bring some to Jiang Tao.
While pondering how to remind Wang Ge when he saw him tomorrow.
Jiang Tao fell asleep on the pillow in a daze.
The next day at 7 a.m.
Jiang Tao was woken up by the alarm clock on his phone.
Since there was no extra intelligence income today, Jiang Tao was reluctant to eat mutton soup.
He simply cooked a package of instant noodles at home and added two fried eggs to make do with a meal.
After eating breakfast, he went downstairs towards the direction of the parking lot at the village entrance.
As he approached the village entrance, Jiang Tao saw a familiar figure in front of him.
Wang Lianming, Wang Ge!
Wang Lianming seemed to sense that there was an acquaintance behind him. When he turned his head, he met Jiang Tao's eyes.
"Xiao Jiang, you kid, were you trying to sneak up on me from behind? You followed me quietly without saying a word!"
Wang Lianming stopped and teased Jiang Tao with a smile.
"Hahaha, no, no, I was thinking about something in my head and got a little distracted."
"What were you thinking about?"
"Making money! Isn't it almost New Year's? I want to make more money so I can go home for the New Year!"
Wang Lianming suddenly asked, "By the way, Jiang Tao, when are you planning to go back this year?"
Jiang Tao said as he walked, "I'm planning to go back on the 27th or 28th of the twelfth lunar month, but it depends on the situation."
Wang Lianming said, "Then why don't we set it on the 27th of the twelfth lunar month? You come to my place, and we'll make jiaozi!
When the time comes, we'll call Xiao Liu, Xiao Dan, Xiao Zhang, and a few others to join us for some fun."
Jiang Tao readily agreed, "Okay! It's been a while since I got together with Xiao Liu and the others. I'll be responsible for buying the wine!"
"You kid, why are you being so polite with your brother? Just bring your mouth! When you come to my place to drink, how can I let you buy the wine!"
Wang Lianming also knew that Jiang Tao's family's financial situation was not very good this year, so naturally he would not let him spend more money. He said as he walked:
"By the way, Jiang Tao, if you're tight on money during the New Year, I'll give you 20,000 to tide you over. You can give it back to me when you have some money."
"..."
Hearing Wang Lianming take the initiative to lend him money, Jiang Tao felt a warmth in his heart on this cold day.
Wang Ge is really a good person!
"Thanks, Wang Ge, I won't be polite with you if I really need it."
"That's right, we're brothers, why be polite."
Wang Lianming smiled and patted Jiang Tao's shoulder. He was considered a competent older brother.
Jiang Tao chatted with Wang Lianming while thinking about how to remind him.
Just as they were about to reach their truck, Jiang Tao finally opened his mouth and said:
"By the way, Wang Ge, how has Sister-in-law been doing lately? Has she had a physical examination recently?"
"Why would she have a physical examination if she's not sick! Isn't that just giving money to the hospital for nothing! With that extra money, I might as well buy some fruit and meat for myself to eat."
Wang Lianming looked indifferent. If it weren't for the village's urging to pay for cooperative medical care in the past two years, he wouldn't even want to pay for that.
He and his wife, He Fang, were in good health. At most, they would only have a cold and fever for a few days a year, and they would get better after taking some cold medicine.
"You can't say that, Wang Ge. Last night, my wife called me and said that three of her high school classmates had been diagnosed with cervical cancer this year."
"One in the early stage and two in the late stage. It's too scary!"
"As soon as I heard that, I immediately asked her to take my mother, her mother, and her sister to have a physical examination today. It costs a little money, but it's worth it for peace of mind."
In a hurry, Jiang Tao made up a story, saying it with such detail that it sounded plausible, and he had quite the talent for spreading rumors.
"Damn, three in a row? Is that thing so common now?"
Hearing Jiang Tao's words, Wang Lianming's heart skipped a beat, and he felt a chill.
He always felt that that thing was far away from him and didn't have much feeling.
Now that he heard Jiang Tao say that cancer was happening to people around him, the feeling was definitely different.
"Who says it isn't! After the epidemic, everyone's physique is not very good, and there are more and more diseases."
Jiang Tao said as he walked, "I'm planning to have Xu Li and my mother have a physical examination once a year from now on, just to spend money for peace of mind!"
Although Jiang Tao was making up a story at this moment, he did have the intention of letting Xu Li take both sets of parents for a physical examination.
He Fang's cancer really touched him a lot.
Wang Lianming said, "Okay, I'll talk to your Sister-in-law when I get off work tonight and see what she thinks."
Jiang Tao finally urged, "Wang Ge, you must take this matter seriously. Save where you should save, and don't save where you shouldn't."
"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you this time. I'm leaving, going to work."
Wang Lianming smiled and patted Jiang Tao's shoulder, striding towards his truck.
"Wang Ge, I can only remind you to this point. I hope Sister-in-law will be blessed by the heavens!"
Jiang Tao sighed and turned to get into his truck, starting another day of his life as a beast of burden.
Jiang Tao's luck was not bad today.
After a busy day, he earned more than 700 yuan.
After deducting the cost of fuel and vehicle wear and tear, there was a net profit of about 500 yuan!
"Damn it, I'm out of gas again."
Ending his day's work, Jiang Tao saw that the fuel tank was empty again.
There was no way around it, so he had to go to the gas station he usually frequented and spend more than 600 yuan to fill up the tank.
Crap, all the money he earned today was fed to the car again!
No wonder Xu Li usually said that the truck was Jiang Tao's mistress.
He spent much more money on his mistress than on his main wife, Xu Li.
Car repairs, maintenance, refueling, and car maintenance cost tens of thousands of yuan a year.
Xu Li was usually reluctant to buy cosmetics, and the money she spent on herself in a year did not exceed ten thousand.
After refueling, Jiang Tao asked the lady for two towels and two packs of tissues.
Just as he was about to drive away after taking the freebies, he suddenly heard a burst of exaggerated roaring sounds behind him.
Looking in the rearview mirror, it was a red Ferrari sports car!
"Damn, they're so rich!"
Looking at other people's mistresses and then looking at his own mistress, Jiang Tao started the car and left.
When he returned to his rental house in Xiao Sha River, it was already past seven in the evening.
When Jiang Tao came home today, he bought two jins of loose frozen dumplings at Pang Dongdong Supermarket.
According to Yu Dongdong, these jiaozi were handmade by several old women in the village, and he was selling them on their behalf.
When Jiang Tao wanted to eat jiaozi, he would buy two jins. They tasted better than those big-brand frozen jiaozi.
Back at the rental house, he plugged in the electric hot pot, directly put the jiaozi in cold water, and sprinkled some salt into the water.
In less than 8 minutes, the water in the pot boiled, and the jiaozi floated to the surface of the water.
After the water in the pot boiled again, he cooked it for another three minutes. Jiang Tao turned off the heat and scooped all the jiaozi in the pot into a bowl.
Just after scooping out the jiaozi, Xu Li's routine check-up video call came.
Jiang Tao put the bowl of jiaozi on the table and swiped his finger to answer the video call.
The image of Xu Li appeared on the phone screen.
"Hello, husband, why are you so late coming home today? What are you eating?"
Seeing his wife, Jiang Tao immediately felt that his main wife was better looking and more charming.
"Today I'm eating Sister-in-law, no, eating jiaozi. I wanted to eat jiaozi, so I bought some on the way back."
"Hahaha, eating your grandpa's Sister-in-law, do you want to eat people!"
Jiang Tao's words made Xu Li on the other end of the phone laugh for a while.
This silly wife's sense of humor is really low
