Bottom line

Liu Jun took the admission slip issued by Yang Jun, an expert in male glasses, and went to the registration and toll office on the first floor to pay the hospital deposit. He found the ward and asked the mute to carry his father in. Chen Erlin was also busy running up and down.

Liu Dekui, who had always been doubtful, was put on the back of a mute and was admitted to a four-person inpatient ward. He did not dare to believe it was true. His leg was healed, but Liu Dekui was not happy. , interrogated Liu Jun with a straight face: "Ah Jun, where did you get so much money?"

Liu Jun had already thought up the reciprocity, and said calmly: "Dad, when Ah Lin and I came to rent a house yesterday, we passed by a welfare lottery betting shop. We bought two tickets out of curiosity, and we won 20 yuan unexpectedly. Treat Pa. Alyn, huh?"

Chen Erlin nodded earnestly: "Uncle, Brother Jun is really lucky. He won the big prize as soon as he arrived in the provincial capital. This is a good sign for a good start."

With Chen Erlin's testimony, Liu Dekui was skeptical. He had seen the lottery winning on TV, but he didn't expect such a good thing to happen to his son Ah Jun?

"Ah Jun, if I knew you had so much money, you would have to set up a supermarket for my aunt first. It won't be too late to treat my leg when I have money." Liu Dekui was dubious, but still remembered Tian Xiuhua.

"Dad, you can earn money early and late, but you can't treat your legs late. The expert Dr. Yang has said that if Dad's leg bones don't heal, it will be too late."

"Oh, let's not talk about that, I've already been hospitalized, you have to go home and tell Auntie Xiuhua about my hospitalization." Although Liu Dekui didn't fully believe it, Liu Jun really paid a large amount of hospitalization fees. It is true, Liu Dekui happily faced the reality, looking forward to being able to walk upright again.

Liu Jun went back to Hongwei Street to pick up Tian Xiuhua in Chen Erlin's car, and the mute stayed behind to look after Liu Dekui in the ward.

Liu Dekui called the mute to his side, with a dignified expression, he said in a deep voice, "Ali, how do I treat you, Uncle?"

The mute nodded vigorously and stretched out his thumb to show his good.

Liu Dekui hummed, and said, "Ali, uncle, I watched you grow up. You are a real person, and you wouldn't lie when you were young. Just now I know what Ajun said about winning 20 yuan in the lottery. It's a lie, I don't believe it. You are with Ah Jun every day, and you put so much money on you. You should know where Ah Jun's money came from. Tell me, where did Ah Jun get so much money? You won’t snatch it or steal it, will you? Don’t lie to uncle.”

The mute was silent, he couldn't lie to Uncle Liu Dekui, otherwise his conscience would be embarrassing; but he couldn't tell Liu Dekui the truth, saying that the 20 yuan was blackmailed by Liu Jun from the bully in the market, otherwise he would be sorry for Ah Jun bro.

Liu Dekui was determined that the mute was honest and honest, seeing that the mute was thinking about something, he was not in a hurry, knowing that the mute would tell the truth.

Sure enough, the mute was only silent for a short while, and he made a serious gesture to Liu Dekui, telling Liu Dekui that the 20 yuan was that he and Liu Jun caught a lot of bastards and sold them day and night in their free time, and sold them back and forth It costs several hundred catties, but bastards are very expensive in the city, several hundred yuan per catty, and it is not difficult to earn 20 yuan.

Of course, the dumb did not mention that Liu Jun and Dao Scarface used the knife to force Dao Scarface to pay 20 yuan to save his life. The dumb also experienced several big scenes with Liu Jun, and realized what should be said and what should not be said. explain.

With the mute’s confirmation, Liu Dekui also asked the patients in the next bed. The bastards in the city are really expensive, and the highest price is five or six hundred yuan per catty. Liu Dekui has to believe that Liu Jun is really good at it I made 20 without telling the adults.

Catching bastards can make a lot of money. Liu Dekui, who has lived most of his life, did not expect such a situation. Even the entire Longshang Village with nearly 4000 people understands this market. , I never thought that the bastards in the countryside contained huge business opportunities.

Liu Dekui was shocked and annoyed. Even if he catches the bastard and makes money again, it's a pity that he can't go back to the past. As long as Xiao Fugui, the village head of Longshang Village, is in Longshang Village, he is doomed to survive for a day.

However, his son is promising, and he can hide a huge sum of 20 yuan. It's not easy. Ah Jun will definitely be a character in the future.

Thinking wildly, Liu Dekui lay on the hospital bed and fell asleep for a while. He didn't wake up until Liu Jun brought Tian Xiuhua the meat pie soup.

Seeing that Liu Dekui's leg was healed, Tian Xiuhua was overjoyed. The nearly 20 yuan surgery fee, regardless of whether Liu Jun won the lottery or caught a bastard, was earned by Liu Jun's ability. Liu Dekui can stand up and take care of herself, and she can also go to the supermarket to help sell things. She, Liu Jun and Dumb work together in the city, and the family of four can make money. Isn't this life going well? Isn't there a good life? Looking forward to it.

……

Ten days later, Liu Jun's father, Liu Dekui, underwent bone replacement surgery on both legs under the personal supervision of Dr. Yang Jun, a top student at the Military Medical University and a well-known orthopedic expert in China. During this period, Liu Jun's aunt and uncle visited the hospital. Twice, cousin Duan Qixiao never showed up.

On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Liu Dekui was discharged from the hospital, and Liu Jun left Yang Jun's phone number, expressing that he will be rewarded for his prosperity in the future.

When he was discharged from the hospital, the cost of the operation was 19, which was basically the same as Yang Jun’s pre-operative estimate. Liu Jun still had five or six hundred yuan for petty expenses. The hospital gave Liu Dekui two special stainless steel crutches for free. People happily returned to Hongwei Street.

On the night of Mid-Autumn Festival, when the bright moon rises and a full moon fills the sky, it is a day for thousands of families to reunite.

Liu Dekui was leaning on a walking stick, supported by a mute, and ordered Tian Xiuhua to set up a table for appreciating the moon and offering sacrifices to ancestors in the door near the gate according to the custom of her hometown.

There is no special table for sacrifices, and a four-legged square table is temporarily used as a substitute. On the table is a sand table for inserting joss sticks, three moon cakes, an orange, and a kitchen knife.

Immediately, the red candles were burning brightly in the rented house, and the cigarettes were lingering around. Liu Dekui's family had a table facing the bright moon in front of the building, enjoying the moon with a table of sumptuous dishes. Being in a foreign land, Liu Jun felt a strong sense of home.

After the banquet, Liu Dekui, Tian Xiuhua, and Mute fell asleep. Liu Jun couldn't sleep and leaned on the door frame to look up at the moon. Thinking of leaving his hometown, the more he missed his hometown, and he couldn't help but gently chant the eternal famous song of Su Shi, a poet of the Northern Song Dynasty, who chanted the moon "Shui Tuo Ge Tou":

"When is the bright moon? Ask the blue sky for wine. I don't know what year it is in the palace in the sky. I want to go home by the wind, but I am afraid that the high place will be too cold. Dance to understand the shadow, what is it like in the world.

Turn to Zhuge, low Qi household, according to sleepless.There shouldn't be any hatred, what's the matter of long-term goodbye?People have sorrows and joys, and the moon has cloudy and sunny waxes and wanes. This matter has never been complete in ancient times.Nung, moon and new moon. "

……

Once the Mid-Autumn Festival is over, life has to go on.

Liu Jun handed over all the few hundred yuan left on his body to Tian Xiuhua for food, and told Tian Xiuhua not to go out to find a nanny for the time being. According to the doctor's instructions, his father Liu Dekui needed to take care of him for half a year before he could throw away the walking stick. You can do odd jobs first to earn some money to subsidize your family.

For Liu Dekui's health, Tian Xiuhua tearfully promised not to go outside to find trouble, and asked Liu Jun and Dumb not to work too hard. After the second half of the year, Liu Dekui can take care of himself before making a long-term plan.

Since then, Liu Jun has been penniless. As the saying goes, "Money is a ghost, and it is easy to use it up", and it is true. All 20 yuan was spent on his father's leg. Although he is now a poor man, Liu Jun's mood is much more relaxed. , because Liu Jun saw his father's brows finally relaxed, and there was a smile on his face.

Liu Jun and Mute walked on Hongwei Street to Dazhang Village at the entrance of Naoxin Village. They didn't see Chen Erlin, so they wandered around the camphor tree. About half an hour later, Chen Erlin came in a van.

"Brother, you are waiting again, why don't you make a call?" Chen Erlin got out of the car and greeted him warmly.

"Anyway, if you're idle, you're idle, so it's okay to wait a while." Liu Jun looked at the dumb man with a military kettle filled with boiled water slanting across his back, thinking that he, who is penniless at this time, would not mind making a phone call. I can't even afford a one-yuan bottle of mineral water.

"Brother, where do you want to go?" Chen Erlin also saw the old-fashioned military iron kettle on the mute's back, and hurried to the small supermarket across the road to buy three bottles of iced Wanglaoji, one for each person.

Liu Jun silently remembered this affection. Although a bottle of drink costs a few dollars, the brother's heart and affection are priceless, so you don't need to say thank you.

"Alin, you know, Ali and I don't have any money now, we don't have any capital to do business, and we don't know what to do. You know this city well. Look where there are temporary workers. Okay, anyway, we have plenty of strength, so it doesn't matter if we earn more or less, as long as we don't stay at home."

Of course Chen Erlin knew Liu Jun's predicament. If he hadn't spent all his money to heal his father's leg injury, Brother Jun would be a rich man. Someone who is so filial and willing to spend a lot of money is definitely not what ordinary people do.

Liu Jun is the one who dares to fight even the scarred face of his mother. He bows his head to do odd jobs to support his family without complaining. This is a true hero who can bend and stretch. He is the man Chen Erlin respects.

"Brother, if you want to talk about temporary workers, the Qingyun Pharmaceutical Factory in Naoxin Village recruits workers all year round, but the smell of medicine there is too strong for most people to bear." Chen Erlin thought for a while and answered seriously.

"It's okay, isn't it just the smell of medicine? As long as it's not poison." Liu Jun immediately realized that the pungent smell of medicine that lingered in the old area of ​​the Jiangnan Machinery Factory where his aunt lived was from Qingyun Pharmaceutical Factory. .

"Ali, are you not allergic to the smell of medicine?" Liu Jun asked the mute with concern.

The mute shook his head with a smile. He could change the water for half an hour under the water of the fish pond in the cemetery and nothing would happen. Just smelling a little medicine from Qingyun Pharmaceutical Factory is nothing.

Liu Jun made up his mind: "Okay, Alin, Ali, let's go to Qingyun Pharmaceutical Factory to apply for a job."
