Chapter 16 Life and Death
Chapter 16 Life and Death
Fortunately, the sky has darkened, and every household wants to finish the work in the fields quickly, and no one seriously checks whether the things on their carts are watermelons.
“Changzhu, I have picked so many watermelons, are you going to sell them tomorrow?” When they were about to arrive at the village, the village’s Qi Shuzhu turned around and stood at the entrance of the village, asking Jin Changzhu.
"Uncle Qi, that's right. I guess it's going to rain in two days, so I'll pick a batch to sell first. Anyway, I have nothing to do at home." Jin Changzhu hugged a big watermelon from the front: "Uncle Qi, try it. Try this year’s big watermelon, it’s so sweet.”
“No, no, just keep the selling money. Now that we have a little baby at home, there are many places to use the money.”
"Uncle Qi, you have nothing to eat." Jin Changzhu smiled and said, "Yao Yao, help Grandpa Qi take the watermelon into the house."
"good."
Grandpa Seven is a poor old man. He originally had two sons. One son ran away from home and there is no news yet, and the other son is dead.
Two years ago, Grandma Qi also died, leaving Grandpa Qi alone in the family.
“Grandpa Qi, the watermelons are put here for you.” Yaoyao helped Grandpa Qi put the watermelons away and then went back.
"Yao Yao." Grandpa Qi stopped her: "I still have some food stamps and cloth stamps here. I don't need them even as an old man. See if your family can use them. If so, use them. Come on."
In the 1990s, food stamps and the like did not completely disappear. Some formal places still required tickets to buy things.
“Grandpa Qi, no need, really no need, you can keep it for yourself.” Jin Yao waved his hand, not wanting to pick up the belongings of such a lonely old man.
"Take it, I have already stepped into the loess with one foot, and it is unnecessary for me to carry these things with me." Grandpa Qi didn't say much, put the ticket into her hand, and waved: "Go back quickly."
Jin Yao felt for the first time that people who were not related by blood could be so friendly: "Thank you, Grandpa Qi, I will go back first."
Hu Xiuying rested at home for a few days and was able to get out of bed and move around. When Jin Yao returned home, she saw Hu Xiuying standing nervously at the door, with worry and fear on her face.
Seeing Jin Yao coming back, he hurriedly stepped forward and held her hand: "Yao Yao, your father..."
“Mom, it’s okay, don’t be afraid.”
“Yao Yao, you...”
"Mom, this is the person I want to save. Mom, I see that he is still so young and still breathing, so I really can't bear to see him die." Jin Yao said softly.
Hu Xiuying hugged her, yes, her Yaoyao has always been the kindest, how could she not save her even though she was about to die.
"Okay, let's save him. Whether he survives or not depends on his luck."
After putting the person on the bed, Hu Dong hurried out again. After a while, an old man was brought in: "Uncle He, you are a barefoot doctor. Please take a look and see if he can be saved."
Old man He first checked the other person's pulse, then narrowed his eyes and slowly said three words: "I can't die."
Old man He is usually very talkative, but he still exerted his strength at critical moments. From the beginning to the end, he didn't ask a single question, besides saving people, he still saved people.
"Whether I save a person or revive him, whether he can survive or not depends on him." Before leaving, he simply asked: "Who bandaged his injury?"
“It’s my daughter, she has learned it.”
"Bandage it in time, otherwise, he may die of excessive blood loss." After saying this, Old Man He went back carrying a simple medicine box.
Hu Dong caught up with him and gave him money.
Old He sighed: "Just give me five or ten yuan." Hu Dong was absolutely generous when he should be generous, so he handed Old He twenty yuan: "Uncle He, if anyone asks, just say she is my sister. Something's wrong."
"When I treat people, I have to report to others." After hearing Hu Dong's instructions, Old He felt unhappy.
Hu Dong grinned: "Uncle He, walk slowly, thank you, Uncle He."
Old man He always has a strict mouth, but isn't he worried?
Besides, who knows what the identity of that person in the family is. What if he is a wanted criminal? If the news is accidentally leaked, it will really cause big trouble.
The injured man had been unconscious and had a high fever. Fortunately, Old Man He left some antipyretic medicine, and after taking the medicine, the man's fever subsided.
Then he remained in a coma and never woke up again.
"Yao Yao, if this person doesn't wake up, we will keep watching like this." Hu Dong looked at the man on the bed, and he had to say that after washing, this face looked really good-looking.
The nose is handsome and straight, with hard and soft lines, the skin color is wheat color, and the muscles on the body are strong, and the muscles on his body make people want to go forward and pinch them to see if they are real.
“Uncle, you can watch him tonight, I’m going back to the room first.” After struggling for most of the night, she was really sleepy. Hu Dong looked at the empty room, took another look at the sick man on the bed, and accepted his fate.
Okay, he’s watching.
When he got up in the morning, the injured man was still awake. When Jin Yao knocked on the door and entered, Hu Dong was sleeping soundly. Jin Yao pinched his nose with her hand: "Uncle, he's dead."
"What? Dead?" Hu Dong jumped up. It was impossible. He heard his breathing before he fell asleep. Although it was shallow, it was not alive.
Getting up, he glanced at the person on the bed and glared at Jin Yao: "Yao Yao, are you trying to scare me to death?" "Uncle, you have been out there for more than ten years, and you only have this little courage."
Hu Dong’s face was confused: “What am I afraid of? I’ve seen so many dead people, why am I afraid of him?”
"real?"
“How can it be false?”
“Yes, my uncle is the most powerful.” Jin Yao smiled: “Uncle, didn’t you say you wanted to go…”
"Yes, yes, enter the soy sauce. If you didn't tell me, I would have forgotten it." Hu Dong slapped his head: "Let's leave quickly and let my brother-in-law and sister watch him later. Making money is the most important thing. We can't delay our work because of him." Isn’t it a money-making plan?”
The most important thing now is to make money.
"You go, I'm at home. If anyone comes over, I'll just close the door." Jin Changzhu was already very calm about rescuing people.
Hu Dong and Jin Yao had breakfast and went to the road five miles away to wait for the bus.
Not long after getting in the car, I discovered that Xu Shaohua and his son were in the car.
Jin Yao watched them get into the car and looked away with a sneer.
"Hey, isn't this Jin Yao? Jin Yao, do you know that our Shaohua is going to the county town today, so you were waiting in the car early." Xu Shaohua's mother's surname is Guo, Guo Hong or something, Jin Yao was forgotten.
"Who is Shaohua? Sorry, I don't know you." Jin Yao raised her confused face and looked at Guo Hong with confusion on her face.
Guo Hong pointed her finger at her, this cheap girl: "Jin Yao, bah, I have heard everything about your family. You are so shameless. If you can't seduce my son, you will seduce the son of the coal mine boss. Just It's a pity that even if you are naked on someone else's bed, that fool won't want you."
