Chapter 20 Liu Mei’s father who has been bedridden for 18 years
Zhang Jinhai knew that Liu Mei was worried about the resurrection pill.
"Okay, I'll take a walk with you after dinner."
Zhang Jinlin rode a 28-bar, with Zhang Jinhai on the back seat and Liu Mei riding a brand-new Phoenix 24 bicycle.
The three of them rushed to Liu Mei's house in a hurry.
Liu Mei's house is a low thatched house.
There is a main room in the middle, a bedroom on the left, a kitchen on the right, and a pigsty on the right.
The family of three is crowded in the bedroom on the left.
Mother Liu was taking care of Father Liu who was lying on the hospital bed, rubbing his hands and feet while talking to him and telling him some recent events.
I hope Father Liu will get better soon.
Otherwise, this family will really be doomed.
I really can't stand it any longer.
Liu Mei stood outside the door and called: "Mom."
He held back his tears.
In recent years, the life of the Liu family, mother and daughter, has indeed been too difficult.
Full and hungry, the most important thing is that there is no hope that life will get better.
Mother Liu was stunned for a moment, stood up and asked confusedly: "Mei, what's going on?
Why do so many people come back suddenly?"
Liu Mei explained: "Mom, have you forgotten?
This is Zhang Jinlin.
We have already obtained our marriage certificate today.
This is Zhang Jinhai, he is Zhang Jinlin's younger brother.
He has a pill.
It is said that he once rescued his uncle who was pronounced dead by the hospital.
I came here today to give it to my dad to try.
Let’s see if we can cure dad as well.”
A light flashed in Mother Liu's eyes, and her eyes suddenly became much brighter.
He rubbed his hands in a somewhat restrained manner and said, "Then come in quickly and don't stand outside the door."
Liu Mei took the two of them into Liu's father's bedroom.
Liu Mei said: "Jin Hai, it's up to you."
Zhang Jinhai scratched the back of his head in embarrassment and said, "I'll try my best!"
Raising your hand to feel the pulse at the patient's wrist, you can feel that there is still a normal weak pulse beat, and the body temperature is basically normal.
Zhang Jinhai asked Liu's mother to help open Liu's father's mouth.
Carefully put the resurrection pill into Father Liu's mouth.
After more than ten minutes, I finally heard the faint sound of Father Liu swallowing the pill.
Father Liu's skin color also gradually changed from waxy to rosy.
Mother Liu appropriately fed Father Liu some warm water.
An hour later, Father Liu's fingers made slight bending movements.
This made Liu's mother and Liu Mei extremely excited.
It has been several years since Father Liu lay on this hospital bed, and he has never seen any movement of his fingers.
Zhang Jinlin also seemed extremely happy.
If this father-in-law is really cured, it will be equivalent to curing a money shredder, and it will be equivalent to picking up a beautiful wife for nothing.
The days to come must be as easy as possible.
Two hours have passed.
Father Liu actually opened his eyes.
He opened his mouth and asked, "Where is this?"
Liu's mother cried with joy and said, "Old Liu, this is at home."
Father Liu asked: "Who are you?"
Mother Liu seemed a little unhappy: "Who am I?
It's your mother-in-law.
It’s not like you don’t even recognize me anymore.”
Liu's father said sternly: "Don't lie to me, my wife has no white hair on her head.
Look at you, your hair is all white."
Mother Liu cried aggrievedly: "You have no conscience.
You have been in bed for 18 years.
We two have never given up on you.
Do you know how much hardship you have suffered and how tired you have been in these 18 years?
The black hair on this head has now turned into white hair due to anxiety and worry."
The expression on Liu's father's face dimmed: "Oh, so that's it."
Zhang Jinhai reminded from the side: "The patient has just woken up. Quickly cook some porridge and let him supplement his nutrition.
Then make some meat porridge and feed it when you want to eat it."
Liu Mei immediately went to the kitchen to cook porridge.
Zhang Jinlin also knew what was going on and immediately followed him to the kitchen to help.
Liu Mei said worriedly: "Your brother said to cook some meat porridge.
Our family hasn't seen meat in many years.
Where can you cook meat porridge?"
Zhang Jinlin knows the difficulties faced by poor families: "Can you raise chickens?"
Liu Mei worriedly said: "Yes, there are, but I only have two old hens at home.
It depends on these two old hens to lay eggs in exchange for some money, which is usually used to buy salt, medicine and the like."
Zhang Jinlin stood up and said, "Then you can cook the porridge yourself.
Jin Hai and I went out to buy an old hen and make chicken soup for your dad to eat."
Liu Mei rolled her eyes at Zhang Jinlin and said, "Why do you pay your father back?"
Zhang Jinlin was stunned for a moment and said: "No, I'm not used to it yet.
In addition, your dad has just woken up, so don’t give him too much stimulation.
Let’s wait until he wakes up and find a suitable time to tell him.”
Liu Mei thought for a while and realized that this was also the case, so she didn't say much about this matter.
Zhang Jinlin called Zhang Jinhai, and together they left Liu's house and asked several of Liu Mei's neighbors before reluctantly buying an old hen.
After the two brothers brought the old hen back, they were in a bit of trouble.
Zhang Jinhai doesn't know how to kill a chicken.
Zhang Jinlin was frail and sickly and had never killed a chicken.
I quietly asked Liu Mei that her family had been poor for 18 years and had no chance to practice killing chickens.
The two brothers had no choice but to encourage Liu Mei to go find Liu's mother to kill the chicken.
Mother Liu was very happy to see her husband really wake up after taking Zhang Jinhai's medicine.
Arrange for Liu Mei to accompany her father in setting up the Dragon Gate Formation.
He came out and took Zhang Jinlin with him and said: "You are a thirty-five-year-old man, but you can't even kill a chicken?
If Meimei is in confinement in the future, I won't be able to count on you even for such trivial matters as killing chickens.
Today, I will personally teach you how to kill a chicken, how to remove the feathers, and how to make soup.
You have to learn."
Zhang Jinhai looked at the scene and found it very funny, and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Liu's mother thought about it, this boy had helped the Liu family a lot, why don't we teach him how to kill chickens together.
He waved to Zhang Jinhai and said, "Stop laughing there.
Come over and learn to kill chickens together."
Zhang Jinhai smiled and said: "I can help you, but I don't want to learn how to kill chickens."
The three of them worked for two or three hours, finally finishing the chicken and making some chicken soup.
Mother Liu fed Father Liu herself spoonful by spoonful.
After Liu's father drank the chicken soup, he felt tired and fell into a deep sleep.
Mother Liu took the three of them to the kitchen to have dinner.
Mother Liu put the chicken on the stove and gave each of the four people a bowl of rice.
Since the Liu family was so poor that they didn't even have a stool to eat on, the four of them had to eat standing up.
Mother Liu and Mei Liu were so embarrassed that their faces became slightly hot.
Zhang Jinhai smiled and said: "Uncle Liu can wake up normally today, which is a day worth celebrating.
If only he could get down and walk tomorrow morning.
The Liu family has completely turned around."
Mother Liu excitedly swallowed the food in her mouth and said, "The old man was able to wake up smoothly this time, thanks to Jin Hai for his help."
Zhang Jinhai smiled and said: "Don't say thank you or not.
Today, my eldest brother and sister-in-law got their marriage certificates, and we are now a family.
If I can help, I will definitely help.”
