"Hey, Uncle Liu is here too. I'll open the door later."
"Uncle Liu, it's rare for you to come out now." The door opened and Li Qin hurriedly welcomed him out.
"Oh, I'm old and too lazy to move. Xiaoqin, look, do you still recognize who this is?"
When Li Qin came out, she saw the old man standing next to Uncle Liu. She glanced at him without paying attention. Now when Uncle Liu said something, she took a closer look.
It's been almost sixty years since we last met, so how could she possibly recognize him?
But she saw the excited look on the old man's face and felt that she should know this man, so she could only look at Uncle Liu for help.
"Girl Qin, don't you recognize me?"
Before Uncle Liu could introduce him, the old man spoke by himself.
This name immediately pulled Li Qin into her memories. Apart from her parents when she was a child, there was only one person in her memory who had called her this.
"Cheng...Uncle Cheng, you haven't given me the sesame candies you promised me yet."
"Hahaha...cough...cough..." As soon as the old man laughed happily, he immediately started coughing violently.
This frightened the other three people.
"Jianjun, help Lao Cheng go in first, Xiaoqin, do you know where Xiaochu went?"
"I'll page him."
Li Qin and Sun Jianjun helped the old man into the house, quickly picked up the phone and dialed the number of the paging station.
Tian Jun, who was chatting in the small car class, felt the vibration of the pager in his pocket. He quickly took it out and saw that the number belonged to the leader's sister's house. He did not dare to delay, so he got up and ran out.
The other drivers looked at Tian Jun's back with envy. They also wanted to put a BB camera on their waist. When they walked on the road, it would make a beep beep sound, and the number of people turning around would be amazing.
"Director, the pager was called from your sister's home."
"Okay, I understand. Go and get ready for the car. I guess there is something going on at home."
"yes"
"Hello? Sister, what's the matter?"
…
"Jianjun came here with Uncle Liu, and there is another patient who is already unconscious?"
"Okay, I'll go back now."
The old man might have recognized Xiaoqin when he saw him, and he also told the story of the last time they met and what he made a wish before leaving. He was so excited that he fainted immediately after coughing violently.
Fortunately, he is still breathing and heartbeating, and he is currently lying on the sofa in the living room of Li Qin's house.
Li Chu rushed back quickly, and Uncle Liu didn't care what to say and asked him to see the patient first.
"Xiao Chu, how are you? How is the situation?"
Seeing him take back his hand, Uncle Liu asked anxiously.
"Uncle Liu, this old... old man is extremely ill. To be honest, based on his physical condition, I think it is a miracle that he is still alive."
"You...you can't do anything about it? Aren't your medical skills very good?"
"Uncle Liu, the medical doctor can't cure the disease. He has delayed this for too long, and... and he still has old injuries on his body. It should be that the previous injuries were not treated thoroughly."
Li Chu turned his head and glanced at the old man lying on the sofa. Suddenly he found that his sister standing next to the sofa had red eyes, and he became even more puzzled.
Judging from the situation, my sister and this old man also know each other?
Thinking of this, he looked at the old man again and looked at it carefully. He really didn't recognize him. He had no impression of this face at all.
"Sister, do you know this old man too?"
"Xiao Chu, when our family was still in Hunan Province, Uncle Cheng had already followed his parents. Counting the time, he was two years earlier than Uncle Liu.
Later, when my parents were notified to go to the northwest, Uncle Cheng left just then..."
At this point, Li Qin glanced at Uncle Liu, who was immersed in sadness, and continued: "We're on a mission! Uncle Cheng promised me when he left that year that he would bring me sesame candy after he completed the mission.
of."
Speaking of this, her tears couldn't stop flowing down.
!!!
Damn it, performing a mission? What mission? What else could it be?
Li Chu's eyes fell on the old man again. What kind of hero is this!
I've known my sister since we were little, so it's no wonder she's so sad.
"Oh~" Uncle Liu sighed leisurely: "Xiao Chu, how long can you survive as an adult?"
"Uh... if there is no treatment, it will take a week at most. If it is treated, it will take about a month."
"Can I wake up now?"
"Can"
"Wake Lao Cheng up and ask him what he wants." Uncle Liu waved his hand.
Li Chu just walked to the sofa and took out an acupuncture needle from his bag. Li Qin took his brother's hand: "Xiao Chu, is there really no other way?"
"sister……"
"Forget it, wake up Uncle Cheng first."
Five minutes later, with the help of Li Chu and Sun Jianjun, Lao Cheng sat up. He stared at Li Chu carefully for a while and said with a smile: "It looks like, it really looks like brother Quan You."
Then he looked at the military uniform he was wearing and nodded: "Brother Quanyou and Sister Ya have successors. I believe they are also happy under Jiuquan."
"Hello, Uncle Cheng, I am Li Chu."
To be honest, he was really shocked at the moment.
According to the old man's physical condition, he should be struggling to speak now, but he just woke up and sat up without talking. His speech was still so clear, and his eyes were not as cloudy as those of older people at all. He looked very...
of sharpness.
It is truly unbearable for ordinary people.
This is because he doesn't know what this old man has experienced in the past. If he knows this man's past, he will know that these illnesses are a piece of cake for the old man.
…
Sun Jianjun left with the two old men. Li Qin wanted Mr. Cheng to live with her, but they didn't agree.
He also didn't agree with Li Chu to treat him, but when he heard that he could live for a few more months after treatment, he seemed surprised.
The old man also has some medical skills and a good understanding of his own body. Looking at Li Chu's calm and confident face when he said this, he knew that he was not talking nonsense.
But he still didn't agree. He believed that life and death were determined by fate. He had already lived for almost ninety years and had long looked down on life and death. Compared with his comrades who died before liberation, he at least saw New China with his own eyes and was very satisfied.
.
"Sister, I will go to Uncle Liu's place tomorrow and try my best to persuade Uncle Cheng to receive treatment." Standing at the gate, watching Sun Jianjun drive away, Li Chu put his arm around his sister's shoulders and said softly.
"Okay, you can come and pick me up tomorrow. He still owes me a piece of sesame candy. He can't just leave like this."
"Okay, let's go there together, brother and sister."
"What are you two standing at the door looking at?" From the east, Wang Ziwen walked over and asked loudly from a distance.
"Brother-in-law, I just saw off an old friend."
"I'm telling you, why are you two siblings standing at the door?"
"Woof woof..." Well, the dog at home couldn't bear it anymore.
