Chapter 10 Everyone goes home

Registration, queuing up, seeing a doctor, checking and taking X-rays, getting needles.

The two struggled for a whole day before they came out of the hospital.

On the cliff, she overexerted her hand and dislocated her hand joint.

Fortunately, I saw a local doctor. The results of the X-ray taken by the hospital said that the joint was restored very well. It seems that the local doctor still has some medical skills.

Because she had a fever, she felt much better after being given an injection of anti-inflammatory and antipyretic medicine in the hospital.

My hands don’t hurt that much anymore, just a little numb, and my head doesn’t hurt anymore.

After coming out of the hospital, the two of them had some food at the entrance of the hospital. The sun had already set.

All home visiting personnel assigned to various locations have completed their tasks and returned home.

Hutao just came back today, a little later than others.

According to the plan, she should be home tonight, but she didn't expect to be in the city and not have time to go home to the countryside.

"The mission is completed, I'm leaving." Hutao put down the bowl and said to Ling Yechen opposite.

Ling Yechen didn't expect her to say such a sentence, and he didn't realize what she meant, so he asked: "Where are you going?"

Hu Tao stood up and said: "Where else can we go? Go home. The home visit mission is completed, so of course we have to go home."

Ling Yechen also stood up: "Oh, then I will take you back."

Hu Tao was stunned for a moment, thinking that she heard wrongly, and couldn't believe that he would say such a thing.

"No need to send me off. It will take me three hours to get home. If I don't go back tonight, I'll leave tomorrow morning. You don't have to worry about me. Take care."

After saying that, he was carrying his own bag and carrying a bag of things in his uninjured hand to go out. Because one hand was injured, it seemed a little difficult to lift things.

Ling Yechen found a private room, so it was quite quiet.

Before she could leave the private room, she was stopped by him again.

"If you leave tomorrow morning, what will you do tonight?"

Hu Tao turned around and said: "What else can I do? Find a place to stay for one night."

She went out, and Ling Yechen followed her out, taking the bag in her hand.

"I said, don't worry about me. I know this place better than you. You can go back by yourself. Remember not to do stupid things in the future."

After saying that, I wanted to take the bag back from his hand.

But Ling Yeshen didn't let her get what she wanted. He looked at her and said, "I'm really not familiar with this place. Let's go. I'll treat you to the hotel tonight. I'll go back tomorrow after you leave."

Later, no matter what Hu Tao said, he was unwilling to let her go alone. There was no other way, so Hu Tao could only take him to find an average hotel to stay.

Since he paid for it anyway, she had no reluctance to part with it, and the hotel she found was slightly better than the one she had stayed in before.

But for Ling Yeshen, a hotel like this is indeed a bit inferior.

He thought he would dislike such an environment, but what he didn't expect was that he would stay in such a hotel with her.

He thought maybe it was because he had become less demanding after living in the countryside for a few days.

After finding a hotel and putting away her things, Hutao went out again carrying the bag of things.

Ling Yechen didn't know what she was going to do, but he still followed her.

He couldn't figure out why he wanted to follow her all the time. Later, he thought it was because of him that her hand was injured, and she felt a little guilty so she wanted to make up for it.

Hutao didn't refuse this time. She knew that he had a car to take her there, and she could save a taxi fare.

The two came to a traditional Chinese medicine clinic, and Hutao took out the contents of her bag and gave them to the doctor at the clinic.

Once we come and go, the price is settled.

In just a short while, Hutao sold the package of goods in her bag.

Yes, the bag contains some medicinal materials that Hutao dug up in the mountains these past few days.

It sold for almost fifty yuan.

She carefully stuffed the money into her wallet before walking out of the hospital.

It was already dark when we came out, and all the night lights were on.

Compared with her lifeless state in the morning, she is much more energetic now, and you can still see her faint smile under the light.

It can be seen that she is in a good mood now.

"Let's go, it's already dark when we go back."

The two got in the car and walked towards the hotel.

Ling Yechen wondered why she would do such a thing.

When she was in the mountains, she jumped up and down, dug up some strange things, and told him they were herbs.

He thought she was lying to him.

Even when my hand was injured, I insisted on carrying this bag of herbs.

It turned out to be sold for money.

What made him even more unexpected was that he only sold it for such a small amount of money.

She can be so happy that she even forgets about her injured hand.

He didn't understand what she was doing and asked curiously: "Do you like money?"

Hu Tao Ni glanced at him and said: "Nonsense, of course I like it. Do you know that 80% of the troubles in this world can be solved with money."

Ling Yechen said: "It's not cost-effective for you to do this. You spent so many days digging and transporting it from the countryside to the city to sell it for only a small amount of money. It's a huge loss.

I think it’s really not cost-effective to make money from my physical labor.”

When talking about making money, Hutao became interested and asked: "If it's not cost-effective to make money this way, then how can it be cost-effective?"

Ling Yechen said: "If it were me, I would definitely work as a middleman, go to the mountains to buy goods at low prices, and then sell them to pharmaceutical factories at high prices.

Making money depends on your brain, not your physical strength. If you have studied like you, why don't you think about how to make money with your own knowledge? Instead, you work hard every day doing these meaningless things?"

Hu Tao wanted to refute, she wanted to say, 'As long as you can make money, it is meaningful.'

What he didn't know was that just over fifty dollars was her living expenses for a week in high school.

After returning to the hotel, the two of them went back to their rooms to rest.

The conditions here are much better than those in the countryside.

The clean and bright room has excellent sound insulation, so you don’t have to worry about your privacy being peeked into.

Early the next morning, Ling Yeshen drove her to the station to take the bus.

Hutao was a little happy, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

During this time, especially after he wanted to jump off the cliff yesterday, she was a little afraid of him and always felt a little weird.

Now that they are finally separated, she is really relieved that they will never have a chance to meet again.

But before she left, she still said to him: "Protect yourself at all times, life is still very long."

It was a nonsensical sentence, but he still understood it.

When Hutao got on the bus home, she was still thinking about what he said to her, "It's such a deep abyss. I'm a little excited and want to try it."

Ling Yeshen drove back to the hotel after delivering Hu Tao. He was injured all over his body and his face was also very obvious, so he had no plans to go home for the time being.

Although the hotel was a bit poor, he didn't bother to change and just extended his stay for another two days.

And in the evening, go to the bar and order a glass of wine alone and sit for a while.

In the past two days, he has been thinking about what Hu Tao said, "I like money", and then he laughs inexplicably.

He feels that he has gone crazy, and what he can accept now is that he has already touched his bottom line.

It wasn't until his mother kept urging him to go home that he started his journey home.
