As soon as the third uncle Yan Bugui left, Lin Jiaguo looked at Li Xiuzhi who was clearing the table, suddenly his heart moved and said: "Xiuzhi, how about I buy you a bicycle."
Upon hearing this, Li Xiuzhi was stunned. When she realized that Lin Jiaguo was not joking, she glared and said, "Jiaguo, don't waste your family, we still have to live."
As she said that, she got closer to Lin Jiaguo and said with a smile: "I know you really want to buy it for me, but I'm pregnant now, and it's convenient to go to work at the Grain Bureau by car."
"Jiaguo, we have saved this money. There will be many places where we will need the money in the future."
When Lin Jiaguo heard this, he was a little reluctant. Just when he was about to speak, Li Xiuzhi rolled his eyes at him and said softly: "Jiaguo, it's enough for a family to have one bicycle. If I buy one too, let's not talk about where to find the bicycle tickets."
, even if you can find another bicycle ticket and buy a car, it is too high-profile."
"In my country and my country, people's hearts are unpredictable. It's not good to be too high-profile. I'd rather live a more down-to-earth life."
Hearing this, Lin Jiaguo patted himself, and he really didn't think too much.
Indeed, one should not be too high-profile. Once a person is high-profile, too many people will look under their noses.
"My wife has thought it through." Lin Jiaguo asked her to sit down and got up to pack up. Looking at his busy figure, Li Xiuzhi smiled softly and reached out to touch her belly.
After a good night's sleep, the two went to work as usual the next day. After work, they saw the third uncle Yan Bugui washing the car carefully.
"Third uncle, your speed is so fast..." Lin Jiaguo joked with a smile. Third uncle Yan Bugui chuckled, obviously in a good mood.
The two of them chatted for a few words, and then Lin Jiaguo went home. After the third uncle, Yan Bugui, washed the car, he began to distribute the candies he bought. Today, he didn't feel sore anymore. He felt that he had subconsciously ignored some things because of his face.
.
In order to thank Lin Jiaguo, he gave a few more candies. After Lin Jiaguo congratulated him, he took Li Xiuzhi out. The two of them were going to the hospital to visit Mrs. Lin.
In the hospital, the eldest mother was telling the elder Yi Zhonghai about the things in the hospital. Listening to the Lin family's young couple receiving awards for their meritorious service, Yi Zhonghai felt a little numb.
He also heard that the third uncle Yan Bugui had bought a bicycle, and he was slightly moved. But when he thought about the last time he had diarrhea and this time he was hospitalized, his savings were reduced a lot, and he suppressed the restlessness in his heart.
Just as they were thinking about something, Shazhu walked in and said to the two of them: "Just now I saw the young couple from the Lin family carrying a lot of things to the hospital. Why, they haven't arrived yet?"
Upon hearing this, Yi Zhonghai's eyes lit up, this Lin Jiaguo has become more and more sensible.
Thinking about this, he felt that when the young couple from the Lin family came here later, he would have to talk to them about their life experiences, so that the young couple would become more sensible in the future.
…
On the second floor of the hospital, Lin Jiaguo and Li Xiuzhi asked the nurse and then went to Mrs. Lin's ward.
In the ward, Mrs. Lin was talking to Mr. Xu, an old Chinese medicine doctor. They both laughed from time to time, and Wu You also laughed, enjoying herself with the old lady.
After talking for a while and letting the old lady lie down to rest, Xu Taisheng and Wu You walked out of the ward. Wu You was about to ask about the old lady's condition when he saw the young couple from the Lin family coming over carrying things.
"Captain Wu, has the old lady slept?" Lin Jiaguo asked in a low voice. Wu You shook his head slightly and said, "Not yet. The old lady was still talking about thanking you personally. I didn't expect you to come."
A few people exchanged a few words, and just as Lin Jiaguo was about to go in, he heard Wu You asking about the old lady's condition, and the two of them stopped and listened.
"A sprained waist is no problem." Mr. Xu said and sighed: "The important thing is the old lady's heartache."
"Don't look at the old lady looking happy, but the wounds in her heart are still bleeding."
The three of them listened in silence. Two sons, two grandsons, and one granddaughter were gone. The old lady had no relatives, not even close relatives. After all, it was not easy to survive in that chaotic era of the country.
Wu You lit a cigarette, took a puff, and said with a wry smile: "We all thought about giving the old lady a home, but the old lady didn't agree."
"Her old man now sent all her money to the orphanage. This time she was almost robbed by Lu Chuan because she sold whatever she could to use it for surgery on a little girl in the orphanage."
Mr. Xu nodded. He knew this. The old lady gave the money as soon as she came to the hospital.
"The old lady is kind-hearted, she shouldn't be so lonely and helpless." Mr. Xu sighed, thinking that when he told the old lady the news that the little girl's operation went smoothly, the old lady smiled like a child.
The three of them were silent again. The loneliness that Mr. Xu mentioned was not about the old lady's material problems, but the lack of emotional support.
"Think of more solutions." Mr. Xu sighed again and said: "This heartache is really about to explode. At this old lady's age, I'm afraid there is no way to save her."
"There is no way." Wu You smiled bitterly and said, "The old lady doesn't agree with us providing her with old age care. We also want to let her adopt a child, thinking that we can make her miss her love and live a happier life."
"But she still disagreed. She said that she was old, and when adopting a child, she had to consider the child. She could not delay the child."
"We all promised her that even if she dies in the future and the child is still young, we will help raise her, but the old lady still refused."
Listening, Mr. Xu narrowed his eyes and said, "I'm afraid the old lady has her own thoughts. It's easy to adopt a child, but it's difficult to really treat the child as your own."
Lin Jiaguo and Li Xiuzhi both felt sad when they heard this. The most rare thing in the world is love, love, and family affection, which are inseparable and inseparable.
"Keep the old lady under observation for a few days. I'll think of a way to see if I can find a breakthrough to open the old lady's heart." Mr. Xu spoke up, and Wu You thanked her, saying that they would find a way to pay for the hospitalization.
"Let's go and see the old lady. She's thanking you. You're here, so she won't have to worry about her all the time, and no one will be able to sleep peacefully." Wu You joked to Lin Jiaguo, who nodded and pushed away.
He opened the door and walked in.
"Old lady, Comrade Lin Jiaguo came to see you. Aren't you talking about his young couple?" Wu You smiled and walked over to help the old lady sit up.
The old lady heard the sound, opened her eyes, turned over and was about to sit up. Wu You reached out to support her, and Li Xiuzhi also walked over and helped lift the quilt for the old lady to protect her from the cold.
"Daughter, I...", the old lady subconsciously wanted to thank her. At this time, she finally saw Li Xiuzhi's face clearly. She trembled all over and looked like she couldn't believe it.
She reached out and wiped her eyes, hoping to see clearly. Seeing her action, the three of them were stunned, even Mr. Xu who walked in again was stunned.
The old lady was finally sure to see clearly at this time. Her hands were trembling and she wanted to touch Li Xiuzhi's face. Tears welled up and she said in a trembling voice: "My dear, are you... back...?"
"My... sweet girl, grandma... miss you so much."
She stretched out her hand to hug Li Xiuzhi, but Li Xiuzhi was stunned and let the old lady hold her.
The old lady was crying and talking, as if her granddaughter was really back at this moment.
Lin Jiaguo and Wu You looked at each other, but Mr. Xu reacted the fastest. He quickly came over, took out the silver needle, quickly sterilized it, and said to Lin Jiaguo and the other two: "Quick, hold the old lady down, she must sleep first, otherwise
She can't stand it."
The two people reacted and quickly came over to help the old lady. As expected, the old lady was now weak all over.
Mr. Xu quickly injected a few needles, but the old lady was still crying and fell asleep.
Seeing that she was sleeping, Mr. Xu pulled out the silver needle. After putting it away, he looked at Li Xiuzhi and said with a smile: "It's said that you can't find a place after wearing iron shoes. It takes no effort to get it. Isn't this the old lady's heart medicine?"
Got it."
After hearing what he said, Wu You was immediately overjoyed. He took Lin Jiaguo's hand and was about to make a request, but Lin Jiaguo spoke first and said: "Mr. Xu, you asked me to do something for the old lady.
As a young couple, we will definitely not refuse anything within our capabilities."
Mr. Xu nodded slightly and said with a smile: "In that case, you, my little daughter-in-law, will come to accompany the old lady for a few days first. Once you have the introduction to the medicine, coupled with my medicinal supplement, you will definitely be able to make the old lady open up. This way
Come, the heartache will naturally heal slowly."
"Okay, I'll go ask for leave for her." Lin Jiaguo nodded, and Li Xiuzhi also nodded, subconsciously shaking the old lady's hand, and then wiping the tears from her eyes.
"No, I'll go ask for it." Wu You spoke out, grinning and saying, "I'll help Xiuzhi ask for leave, and make it clear to the people in her unit to avoid causing more trouble."
Seeing his consideration, Lin Jiaguo nodded in agreement. After the discussion, Li Xiuzhi stayed in the ward. Lin Jiaguo went home first, preparing to make some food and deliver it to the two of them.
In the hospital ward, Yi Zhonghai waited and waited, but could not wait for the Lin family and his wife. After a long time, he realized that they were not here to see him at all.
The sense of disparity suddenly made his resentment towards Lin Jiaguo rise a lot, but he didn't show it.
Lin Jiaguo didn't know that he had been marked down by his uncle Yi Zhonghai again. After returning to the courtyard, he took out some fresh vegetables from the space and prepared to make some light delicacies for the old lady and Xiuzhi.
After it was done, I put it in the food box and rushed to the hospital.
When they came to the hospital again, the old lady had woken up, and Li Xiuzhi was talking to her. Lin Jiaguo walked in, and the old lady looked at him as if she was looking at this hairy grandson-in-law.
Lin Jiaguo was stunned. At this time, the old lady also reacted. She smiled awkwardly and said: "Xiao Lin, I haven't had time to thank you for saving me. Come, let me take a good look at my savior."
What does it look like?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Jiaguo's eyes lit up. The old lady's tone obviously sounded like she was having a family affair. Was this the knot in her heart that had been resolved?
"Old lady, don't look too busy, let's have something to eat first." Lin Jiaguo said with a smile, as if he was bragging: "I'm not bragging, your savior's cooking skills are not ordinary.
, you always try it."
The old lady was very amused. Lin Jiaguo opened the food box, and the smell hit his nostrils immediately. Li Xiuzhi came over, brought chopsticks to the old lady, and the two started eating.
Lin Jiaguo walked softly and exited the room. When he came outside, he saw several police comrades he had met a few days ago waiting.
They all felt that the old lady was cheerful from the bottom of her heart, and they all smiled.
"Xiao Lin, thank you very much." Several people expressed their thanks one after another. Lin Jiaguo shook his head slightly and said with a smile: "It's an honor for me and my wife to do something for the old lady. You don't have to be so polite."
Several people talked, and after the old lady finished eating, Lin Jiaguo went in and talked to her for a while, and then left.
In the next few days, Lin Jiaguo would go home to cook after get off work and then take him to the hospital.
Grandpa Yi Zhonghai was discharged from the hospital again. He was not paralyzed, but his face was much rosier after being nursed for several days.
Lin Jiaguo went to the hospital every day, and his wife Li Xiuzhi was not at home. Yi Zhonghai inquired some more, and found out that it was to take care of an old lady. Yi Zhonghai immediately felt even more unhappy.
"Looking at the outside without caring about the inside", Lin Jiaguo's behavior needs to be changed.
The first uncle, Yi Zhonghai, originally wanted to say a few words, but after once again confirming Mrs. Lin's condition, he shut up.
It's not that he doesn't want to say it, but he doesn't dare to say it. If people really want to know that he is talking about Lin Jiaguo because of this matter, I'm afraid there will be many people who will cause trouble for him.
It has to be said that Siheyuan just can't hide things. Everyone soon knew that Lin Jiaguo and Li Xiuzhi went to the hospital to take care of Mrs. Lin.
After learning about Mrs. Lin's situation, most people in the courtyard praised the actions of the Lin family couple.
Listening to everyone's praise for the young couple of the Lin family, Jia Zhang made an angry noise and said: "I don't think that boy is a good person. He is probably thinking about the old lady's money."
Hearing this, Qin Huairu rolled her eyes slightly and couldn't help but said: "Mom, Director Lin has already said that Mrs. Lin's family's pension has been donated to the orphanage. Don't go out and say this nonsense, otherwise the street staff will
Looking for trouble for you."
Hearing this, Mrs. Jia Zhang subconsciously wanted to refute, but when she saw Qin Huairu's warning eyes, she shrank her neck. She dared to mess around in the courtyard, but she didn't dare to go out and mess around.
"Then Mrs. Lin is really saying, why would you donate so much money to an orphanage? It would be great to donate it to our family."
She muttered something, and the corners of Qin Huairu's mouth twitched. She also wanted someone to donate money to her family, but was that possible?
…
On this day, Li Xiuzhi finally returned to her home in the courtyard. After saying hello to the people in the courtyard, she returned to the house.
After Lin Jiaguo got off work, Li Xiuzhi had already prepared a meal waiting for him.
During the meal, Li Xiuzhi was distracted. Lin Jiaguo looked at her and suddenly became happy and said with a smile: "I say Xiuzhi, if your chopsticks were any more biased, you would almost get the food in my mouth."
"Ah", Li Xiuzhi came back to her senses and immediately gave Lin Jiaguo a roll of his eyes. Lin Jiaguo looked at her and said with a smile: "Let's eat first. After you are full, you will have the energy to say something is wrong."
Li Xiuzhi listened and nodded immediately. After the two of them finished eating, they packed up together.
After making her a cup of honey water and making myself a cup of tea, the two sat close to each other by the fire.
"Jiaguo, the old lady will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow. Mr. Xu said that her heart has been opened. Captain Wu asked me to visit the old lady from time to time."
As Li Xiuzhi spoke, Lin Jiaguo listened quietly. Li Xiuzhi took a sip of water and said with some distress: "Jiaguo, I can already feel it. The old lady really regards me as her granddaughter."
"She said that I look very much like her granddaughter. For this reason, I even went home and asked my dad."
She raised her head, looked at Lin Jiaguo, and said with a troubled expression: "Jiaguo, although I can visit the old lady from time to time, I know that what the old lady wants most now is to be with her every day."
Lin Jiaguo nodded slightly, gave Li Xiuzhi a kiss, and said with a smile: "You want to take the old lady over, right?"
"Yeah." Li Xiuzhi nodded and said with a wry smile: "Jia Guo, I know my request is a bit too much, but I really don't want the old lady to live the rest of her life depressed."
"I agreed." Lin Jiaguo said. Li Xiuzhi was stunned and looked up at Lin Jiaguo. Lin Jiaguo looked at her seriously and said word by word: "I agreed."
"real?"
"real!"
Li Xiuzhi's face suddenly became happy, but she thought of something again. Just as she was about to speak, Lin Jiaguo gently shook her hand and said: "My wife, the old lady's family is full of loyal people. You are her heartthrob.
For others, if we encounter them, we have to help."
"We should do whatever we can within our power. If we don't do it, we will regret it."
As he said that, Lin Jiaguo said with a smile: "Didn't Dad always send money to the families of his comrades in arms? So we took the old lady over and recognized her as our grandmother. I think Dad would agree if he knew about it."
Li Xiuzhi nodded and heard Lin Jiaguo continue: "Anyway, except for my father who doesn't know the news, I have no other relatives here. If I meet a grandma, our family will be more lively."
"Honey, you are so kind." Li Xiuzhi hugged Lin Jiaguo, leaned against his chest, and smiled sweetly.
While the two were talking here, on the other side, in the hospital, Old Mrs. Lin was lying on the bed. When Li Xiuzhi was no longer around, she sighed softly.
Outside the ward, Wu You and the others looked at the old lady in the ward and asked Mr. Xu, "Mr. Xu, is the old lady okay?"
Mr. Xu glared at a few people and hummed: "When people get old, they all think about their children and grandchildren, let alone an old lady."
When several people heard this, they immediately became confused. They couldn't let Li Xiuzhi stay with the old lady all day long. Li Xiuzhi had her own home.
Seeing how entangled they were, Mr. Xu twitched the corner of his mouth and couldn't help but said: "I ask you police comrades, with your brains, can you catch a thief?"
Several people were stunned by what he said. They all looked up at Mr. Xu. Mr. Xu glanced at them and said, "In the past few days, have you not inquired about the situation of the young couple of the Lin family?"
After being reminded to this point, Wu You finally came to his senses and said, "Mr. Xu, what you want is for the Lin family to recognize a grandma, and then arrange for the old lady to be admitted to their hospital."
"Not stupid." Mr. Xu snorted and said: "After a few days of contact, I think I can't misjudge the Lin family and the young couple. They are both very good young people."
"If the old lady gets the care of the young couple, let alone Li Xiuzhi, who is already pregnant, she will give birth to a child in a few months. By then, the old lady will have more emotional support. After her heartache recovers,
, with the old lady’s body, I guarantee that she can live for more than ten years.”
