"Xiao Zhang, are you back from the hospital? How are your mother's situation? Is it serious?"

In the old dormitory of the unit, an old aunt in her sixties and seventies sat by the flower bed to cool off. When she saw the neighbors in the same unit, she greeted her enthusiastically.

"Aunt Xu!" Xiao Zhang greeted and smiled bitterly: "Just come back from the hospital. My mom, alas, the doctor recommends that it is best to take conservative treatment!"

"Oh, there is nothing you can do about this. Your mother is in her seventies. If you have surgery, the risk is too great!"

Aunt Xu shook her head sighing. She was all old neighbors who had lived there for 20 or 30 years, and they were all very familiar with each other.

When I think of the old lady who was chatting with me a few days ago, now she has a fatal disease like cancer, and while sympathizing, I can't help but sigh.

Xiao Zhang's mother is two years younger than me. She just saw her grandson in middle school and it was time to enjoy her happiness, but the result was-

"The doctor is also considering that my mother is too old and her health is not very good, so she does not recommend surgery!" Xiao Zhang's face was exhausted.

The doctor didn't say it too thoroughly, but everyone actually understood the meaning.

In the case like his mother, only conservative treatment can be treated.

Have surgery?

The old man entered the operating room alive, and whether he could come out alive is a question.

Even if the operation is successful, there is no guarantee that there will be no other situation.

At most it is the difference between living a few more months.

But if Xiao Zhang did nothing, he would let the old man die like this, and he would not be able to do it.

It’s not just the question of whether he is money or not, but whether he is filial or not. The key is that he cannot overcome the hurdle in his heart.

Aunt Xu felt very pity when she saw Xiao Zhang's exhausted body and mind. Suddenly, she thought of something, opened her mouth, and swallowed it back.

Xiao Zhang noticed Aunt Xu's abnormality and couldn't help but be curious. He asked casually, "Aunt Xu, do you want to tell me something? Just tell me if the light at home is broken or the sewer is blocked? I'll help you do it!"

Xiao Zhang is so enthusiastic, in addition to neighborhood relations, is mainly due to his professional reasons.

He is a policeman and often helps the old men and mothers in the community look for cats and dogs, doing this and that.

Seeing Xiao Zhang's warm-hearted appearance, Aunt Xu finally couldn't help it and said in a low voice, "Xiao Zhang, it really doesn't work. Just take your mother to the He family's health club on East Street!"

At first, when Xiao Zhang saw Aunt Xu's mysterious appearance, he thought that the other party wanted to introduce him to some old Chinese medicine doctor.

By the way, since his mother was confirmed to have breast cancer, relatives and friends around her have helped inquire about good hospitals or doctors.

Xiao Zhang also took his mother to the provincial capital to see it, but the conclusions were the same.

A doctor couldn't bear it, so he said more: "Or why don't you go and try traditional Chinese medicine."

This is probably a little better suggestion than waiting for death, and it can be regarded as the last bit of comfort to the family!

As a post-80s generation, Xiao Zhang has been using antibiotics and various Western medicines since childhood. When he heard about traditional Chinese medicine, his first reaction was a liar.

However, traditional Chinese medicine has a bad reputation, and it is a legal and compliant form of medical treatment at least.

As for the "health club" that Aunt Xu calls is just a place to sell health products.

Xiao Zhang often receives calls from some elderly people's children, and always goes to those specialty stores and clubs in a month to mediate disputes.

Although Xiao Zhang has rarely received a call from the He family in recent years, he often goes to other clubs in the county.

Every time I go there, there is a big quarrel about whether or not health products are scams, and sometimes it will turn into a chaotic battle between the elderly and the children and salesmen.

I saw too many farces with my own eyes. When Xiao Zhang heard the words "health products" and "clubs", he would feel physical disgusted!

He never expected that his mother was suffering from terminal illness and the whole family was in a state of turmoil. Aunt Xu, who usually looked at her reliable one, secretly asked him to take her mother to a health club.

What?

Does she also want to recommend them to buy health products that can cure all diseases?

Let him, a dignified policeman, run to send money to the scammer?!

This is not a joke.

Xiao Zhang definitely won’t go to those health clubs. Not only did he not take his mother, he also didn’t want Aunt Xu to be deceived.

"...Aunt Xu, our institute has organized more than once and repeatedly promoted it to everyone that health care products can only be used to protect health and cannot cure diseases--"

Xiao Zhang said seriously.

However, before he could finish his words, Aunt Xu waved her hand impatiently, "I know that health products do not cure diseases. I didn't let you go to other people's clubs. If you go to He Hongtu, he will definitely help you!"

Xiao Zhang wanted to say something, but when he saw Aunt Xu's stubborn look, he swallowed it again.

Alas, he works in the community all year round, and he deals with these elderly people almost every day.

Xiao Zhang knows more than anyone about the stubbornness and stubbornness of these old people.

Not to mention him as an outsider, even the children of the elderly are almost wearing down their mouths, but they still believe in those scammers selling health products more!

"Oh, Xiao Zhang, we are all old neighbors for 20 or 30 years. My relationship with your mother is also very good. Will I still harm you?"

Seeing Xiao Zhang's appearance, Aunt Xu was anxious and almost patted her chest and promised: "Really, you can take your mother to the He family's club. Xiao Zhang, let me tell you, if it weren't for the good relationship between our two families and seeing you being kind enough, I wouldn't have recommended it on my own!"

"I know, you young people always feel that we old people are confused and are coaxed by those liars every day!"

"...Hmph, we have eaten more salt than you have eaten, so we will be deceived? If you still want to save your mother, go find He Hongtu. You can't say anything about curing it completely, but it can make your mother live for three or five more years!"

As Aunt Xu spoke, she was annoyed first, so she waved her hand, "Okay, okay, I won't say it anymore, so you won't be able to scold me in your heart!"

"No, Aunt Xu, I didn't scold you. I just think that health products are really not cured, and they are still expensive to die—"

Before Xiao Zhang finished speaking, he swallowed it himself.

Because Aunt Xu had already stood up, picked up the stool and went home.

have to!

The old lady is really angry.

Seeing the old lady's angry back, Xiao Zhang was not angry, but instead became interested in He Hongtu.

Although he has not received any police calls from the He family in recent years, He Hongtu and his club are quite famous in the county town.

In their dormitory, there are several old men and wives who are clients of the He family.

However, unlike other salesmen who came to be godson and goddaughter attentively, the He family never seemed to have visited customers.

Also, Aunt Xu seemed to believe that the health care products sold by the He family could cure diseases.

Is there any misleading thing about He Hongtu?

If this is the case, He Hongtu is suspected of fraud.

"Find some time and go to the He family's club to have a look!" Xiao Zhang thought to himself.
