In a remote town, a young man rushed to the hospital with a hurried back on his back, and the old man followed behind him with an anxious face.
When I just picked up this man from the river, I thought he was dead. Both grandfather and grandson were very afraid of being known to others. They wanted to call the police but did not dare to call the police. When they were at a loss, they found that the man was still weak and then became anxious.
He sent him to the town, hoping to save him.
"Xiao Pei, hurry up." The old man urged.
The young man who called Xiao Pei gritted his teeth and shrugged the half-dead person on his back, and quickly walked, "Grandpa, it's not too far away, there is a hospital in front of him."
After about ten minutes, the grandfather and grandson finally arrived at the hospital. When they found a nurse, they said anxiously, "Doctor, doctor, help me."[
The nurse looked at the two old and young people and frowned slightly, "What are you shouting? This is the hospital."
"I'm sorry, sorry, sister nurse, can you save him?" Xiao Pei said in panic.
The nurse looked at him again, "Register first, go and pay the money."
"Okay, okay!" Xiao Pei nodded quickly, and waited for the nurse to turn around and call her again, "Sister Nurse, how much does it cost?"
The nurse showed a look of disdain in her eyes. From the clothes of the old and the young, you can tell that they were from the countryside. Then I looked at the young man on his back who was almost the same as the dead, but he would never turn him off when he had business.
Yes, he frowned again, "It's probably a few thousand. You guys go and prepare the money quickly. The hospital is not a philanthropist."
"Oh oh oh." After the nurse left, the grandfather and grandson showed a embarrassed look again, and it would cost several thousand yuan at once. This was a big problem for them who depended on each other.
Xiao Pei hesitated for a moment, put down the person on his body, and looked at his whole body white and his breathing faintly, feeling reluctant in his heart, "Grandpa, what should I do?"
The old man also glanced at the person leaning against the wall, gritted his teeth, and took out a red book from his body, "Xiao Pei, there are more than 8,000 in this note, you can take it all out, it was originally for the purpose of
You use it for marrying a wife, but now we cannot stand by death and refuse to save us. We are poor because we are poor, and we must be worthy of our conscience."
Xiao Pei took the passbook, nodded heavily, then turned around and left the hospital. The old man squatted down and sighed. Thinking of his incompetent son and daughter-in-law, anger surged in his heart.
The old man was very happy when his son and his daughter-in-law got married. The birth of his grandson made him feel that there was a hint of seasoning in life. Seeing his grandson growing up day by day, the old man almost couldn't stop smiling. But he didn't know that the good times would not last long.
A few years later, the son and daughter-in-law who walked from the countryside had a marriage change.
The daughter-in-law remarried another person, and the son also found another woman. As for the grandson, she was still in her hometown. More than ten years have passed. The two of them can even count the number of times they come back to see each other. The only thing that remains in the old man's heart is cold.
Fortunately, my grandson is in his early twenties, which makes the old man feel relieved. The only regret is that his grandson has not started a family.
Grandson Xiao Pei did not go to school like other people's children. After graduating from junior high school, he worked in the town and took care of his grandfather. It was said that poor children were already in the family. He knew how much hardship his grandfather had put him in to pull him up. As for
His parents have begun to blur in his eyes.
For Xiao Pei, the love and hatred for his parents are no longer so important. He just wants to accompany his grandfather and go through the last years of his life. There is only so much he can do.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to go to the big cities outside, but he can’t rest assured that his grandfather has given up many opportunities to go to the city. He even smiled and told his grandfather that he was used to life in the townships, but he was not used to it when he went to the university city.
The old man lived a long life, how could he not tell that his grandson made such a choice because of him. He wanted to persevere, but later when he thought of his son and daughter-in-law, he swallowed up the words of persuasion. The world of flowers in the big city.
It is easy to change a person, but in the countryside, people can maintain a certain degree of simplicity.
Soon, Xiao Pei took out the money. After having the money, the hospital became attentive and brought the dying person to the bed to make a series of persistences. The result was very curious. This person obviously had a weak
All indicators of breathing and physiology are normal. The only thing is that they are not conscious. To put it directly, they are vegetative.
After spending more than 4,000 yuan, the result was like this. For a while, the grandfather and grandson didn't know how to deal with it. The hospital would definitely not be able to live in it, and the hospital would not be able to give alms to a person with any connection. After thinking about it,
The grandfather and grandson decided to take the man home for the time being.
A week passed, and the infusion alone cost two or three hundred yuan a day. The remaining 4,000 yuan was quickly used half of it. Looking at the "patient" and the grandfather and grandson who were still unrest, they felt silence and sigh again.
The neighbors around them knew that the two grandfathers and grandsons who depended on each other picked up one person and took care of them carefully. They advised them to hand over the person to the police and the government, but they were rejected by the grandfathers and grandsons. Seeing that they were so persistent,
It is hard for neighbors to say anything else. Those who understand help them in life, while those who don’t understand secretly call them stupid.
About a week later, it was half a month since I picked up this person, and the grandfather and grandson only had a few hundred yuan left.
At night, the old man was smoking two packs of cigarettes in his stomach. Xiao Pei sat next to him. The food on the table was already cold, but the grandfather and grandson didn't take a bite.
After smoking a cigarette, the old man sighed, "Xiao Pei, let's take him to the town police station in two days."
Xiao Pei pondered for a while and nodded heavily.
"Don't think about it, eat, take a break after breakfast, and go catch some fish tomorrow morning." The old man picked up the rice bowl, held the vegetable leaves without any oil, and squeezed the rice hard.
After dinner, both grandfather and grandson fell asleep.
The night is so quiet.
The "patient" lying on the bed still had no reaction.
"Hey, you kid, have made you look like this again. Fortunately, you successfully stood at the peak of the second transformation, otherwise you wouldn't have any chance of survival."
A sigh came from the quiet room.
"It's always not worry-free. You, you, that's all. After this, you may grow further." After pausing the voice, he said, "Fortunately, you met two kind-hearted people!"
Early the next morning, the grandfather and grandson went to the river to catch fishing on a boat. The whole day passed, but today they caught less than 30 kilograms.
It was evening, and the grandfather and grandson sold the fish before returning home. He had just walked to the door, but his eyes widened because there was a person sitting next to the table, and the whole pot of rice cooked in the morning disappeared.
Seeing the grandfather and grandson appear, the young man scratched his head awkwardly, "I'm starving to death, I'm so sorry, I've finished all the meal."
"Brother, you're awake, it's great!" Xiao Pei seemed a little excited, and the old man breathed a sigh of relief.
