Ma Xiaoyao, who was standing outside the door, couldn't listen anymore and walked directly into the room.
The area of the room was very small, probably only a dozen square meters. There was a shabby single bed placed against the wall. Xiaoyun was sitting beside the bed at this time, his face turned pale, and he kept breathing.
Ruoqi, standing opposite Xiaoyun was a man wearing a plaid shirt. He was short in stature and had sinister features. He didn't look like a good person at first glance.
Hearing the footsteps, Xiaoyun and the man both turned their heads.
"Brother Xiaoyao? Why are you here?" Xiaoyun's face was filled with joy.
The man looked Ma Xiaoyao up and down and asked coldly: "Who are you?"
Ma Xiaoyao ignored the man, but quickly walked to the bedside and looked at Xiaoyun with concern: "Xiaoyun, I heard the bartender said you were sick, so I came here to see you."
"I'm fine... I just have a cold..." Xiaoyun was very happy that Ma Xiaoyao came to visit her.
"You said it's okay, but you look so ugly." Ma Xiaoyao touched Xiaoyun's forehead with his hand: "It's so hot, no, you have to go to the hospital right away." As he spoke, Ma Xiaoyao took it from the bedside.
He picked up a piece of clothing and put it on Xiaoyun.
"No need...I'm really fine. I just need to sleep and I will be fine..." Xiaoyun shook her head. She had no money to see a doctor at all.
"Are you worried about the medical expenses? Don't worry, I'll pay for it for you." Ma Xiaoyao could see Xiaoyun's worry at a glance.
"How can I ask you to pay..." Xiaoyun shook his head.
At this moment, the man standing next to him spoke: "Hey, are you done talking? When you're done, just pay the rent quickly. I don't have time to waste time here!"
Ma Xiaoyao glanced at the man, then turned to look at Xiaoyun: "Who is he?"
"He is the landlord here, and I owe him rent..." Xiaoyun bit her white lips and whispered.
Ma Xiaoyao asked: "How much do you owe him?"
"Five...five hundred yuan..." Xiaoyun said hesitantly.
Ma Xiaoyao nodded, took out five hundred yuan from his pocket and threw it to the landlord: "The rent is given to you, you can leave."
After getting the rent, the man stopped pestering him and left the house.
"Brother Xiaoyao, I will return the money to you as soon as possible..." Xiaoyun said gratefully. Fortunately, Ma Xiaoyao arrived today, otherwise she would probably be kicked out and sleep on the street.
"Don't worry, it won't be too late to pay me back when you are rich in the future. Okay, now I will take you to the hospital right away!" Ma Xiaoyao pulled up Xiaoyun without any explanation, and then walked towards the door.
Under Ma Xiaoyao's force, Xiaoyun came to the hospital.
After the doctor's diagnosis, he said that Xiaoyun had a severe cold. If he came to the hospital a little later, he might become comatose and his life would be in danger.
After listening to the doctor's words, Xiaoyun suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. It was so dangerous. If Ma Xiaoyao hadn't forced her to come to the hospital, her life would have been in danger. Thinking of this, Xiaoyun felt even more grateful to Ma Xiaoyao.
.
The doctor planned to hospitalize Xiaoyun, but Xiaoyun refused to say anything. The hospital fee was very expensive, and Xiaoyun didn't have the spare money. In the end, he had no choice but to give Xiaoyun a sling bottle, and then prescribed some
Xiaoyun was given medicine and told Xiaoyun to come to the hospital every day to get a sling, otherwise his condition is likely to worsen.
Ma Xiaoyao paid for the medical expenses, and the total cost was less than 200 yuan. Speaking of it, it was a coincidence today. Ma Xiaoyao had just paid off his salary, and he happened to help Xiaoyun pay the rent, see a doctor, and get medicine.
After paying for the medical expenses, Ma Xiaoyao and Xiaoyun left the hospital. Then Ma Xiaoyao took a taxi and took Xiaoyun back to his residence.
"Brother Xiaoyao, thank you for today!" Xiaoyun sat on the bed and said gratefully.
"Why are you being polite to me..." Ma Xiaoyao waved his hand: "Xiaoyun, I heard the bartender said that you are from out of town? Your relatives are not around?"
Xiaoyun nodded: "I'm from a rural area. I came to the city to work last year. I didn't have a high degree of education and didn't have any skills. It was difficult to find a job. Later, under the introduction of a friend, I went to work as a waiter in the bar where I am now.
Although the salary is not high, it is stable and enough for me to live on. My parents are both farmers and they stay at home and farm. I occasionally send them some money back."
"It's really not easy for a girl like you to work hard in the city." Ma Xiaoyao sighed, reached out and took out all the money in his pocket: "You can take the money."
"No, no, no, I can't ask for your money..." Xiaoyun declined hastily.
"Take it, treat it as if I lent it to you." Ma Xiaoyao put the money directly into Xiaoyun's hand: "Remember to buy more nutritional supplements to replenish your body. Look at how bad you look." Ma Xiaoyao said.
Xiaoyao is such a righteous person. Whenever he sees his friends in trouble, he would rather live a more miserable life himself and will try his best to help.
Xiaoyun looked at the money in his hand, and his eyes began to turn red.
"What's wrong? What's wrong with you?" Ma Xiaoyao noticed something was wrong with Xiaoyun's expression.
"Except for my parents, no one has ever cared so much about me..." Xiaoyun choked with sobs.
Ma Xiaoyao smiled: "In my heart, I have already treated you as my sister. If you have any trouble that cannot be solved in the future, just call me directly and I will definitely help you."
"Brother Xiaoyao, thank you! Thank you!" Xiaoyun raised his head and said sincerely.
"Didn't I tell you, you don't have to be polite to me... Come, let me help you lie down and rest..." Ma Xiaoyao helped Xiao Yun lie on the bed, then pulled a quilt to cover Xiao Yun. After doing this
After everything, Ma Xiaoyao said: "It's getting late, I'm going back first, and I'll see you another day."
"Ah? You want to leave." A trace of reluctance flashed across Xiaoyun's face.
"I still have something to do." Ma Xiaoyao said with a smile: "Remember to buy more nutritional supplements to replenish your body. Oh, by the way, there is something I forgot to tell you. I have already resigned from the bar."
"What? You resigned?" Xiaoyun was stunned: "Why?"
"Because I want to change my job, I can't stand staying up late every day in the bar." Ma Xiaoyao said with a wry smile.
Hearing that Ma Xiaoyao resigned in the bar, Xiaoyun felt a little empty. It was over, he would never be able to meet Brother Xiaoyao again...
"You should have a good rest. I will come see you another day." After closing the door for Xiaoyun, Ma Xiaoyao strode away.
Xiaoyun lay on the bed, sighed softly, and said to himself: "Brother Xiaoyao, do you know? I like you, I really like you..."
…
Since resigning from the bar, Ma Xiaoyao bought a lot of official books and started studying them at home every day. Since Gu Li asked him to join the officialdom, Ma Xiaoyao had to make preparations and not embarrass Gu Li.
After reading for a few days, Ma Xiaoyao had a preliminary understanding of some of the rules of officialdom, especially the job levels of official officials.
Day five.
Ma Xiaoyao received a call from Gu Li.
"Ma Xiaoyao, where are you?" Gu Li's crisp voice came from the mobile phone.
Every time she heard Gu Li's voice, Ma Xiaoyao felt extremely happy: "Ah, Sister Gu, I'm at home, what's the matter?"
"I have arranged your job for you. You are to work as a clerk in the Municipal Health Bureau." Gu Li said.
"So fast?" Ma Xiaoyao looked happy.
"Ma Xiaoyao, because you have little qualifications, you can only work as an ordinary clerk in the Health Bureau. However, don't worry, I will arrange a better position for you when you have more qualifications." Gu Li was afraid that Ma Xiaoyao would dislike her.
The position is low, so I promised to promote him in the future.
"Okay, everything will follow Sister Gu's arrangements." Ma Xiaoyao said with a smile.
"Well, you clean up and go to the Health Bureau to report tomorrow. I have already said hello to the relevant leaders of the Health Bureau. You can just state your name." Gu Li warned: "Remember, I went to the Health Bureau.
After the game, you must be humble and low-key in everything you do. Don't think that just because I'm protecting you, you can be arrogant and lawless."
Ma Xiaoyao nodded repeatedly: "Sister Gu, don't worry, I won't mess around."
After a few more words of caution, Gu Li hung up the phone.
Ma Xiaoyao put away her cell phone, jumped off the bed, and yelled a few times in excitement.
"Bang..." The door of the room was suddenly pushed open, and Zhang Chunfang walked in quickly. When he saw Ma Xiaoyao jumping around on the floor, he was stunned: "Xiaoyao, what are you doing?" Zhang Chunfang was cooking dinner outside just now.
Suddenly hearing a loud shout from Ma Xiaoyao's room, Zhang Chunfang was startled. She quickly put down her spoon and rushed into Ma Xiaoyao's room.
Seeing his mother walk in, Ma Xiaoyao, who was twisting his butt, suddenly turned red and said awkwardly: "Um...I...Mom, you came just in time, I have something to tell you."
"What's the matter?" Zhang Chunfang asked doubtfully.
"Dad is back?" Ma Xiaoyao asked.
Zhang Chunfang nodded: "You're back?"
"Okay, I'll talk to you together." As he spoke, Ma Xiaoyao pulled Zhang Chunfang out of the room.
Ma Dahai was sitting on the sofa watching TV, holding a cigarette in his hand and smoking slowly. When he saw Zhang Chunfang and Ma Xiaoyao walking out together, Ma Dahai immediately asked: "Xiaoyao, what was your name in the room just now?"
"Obviously, Ma Dahai also heard Ma Xiaoyao yelling in the room just now.
"It's okay... I just yelled twice..." Ma Xiaoyao said with an embarrassed expression: "Dad, Mom, I have something to tell you." Ma Xiaoyao took Zhang Chunfang and sat across from Ma Dahai.
"What's going on?" Ma Dahai asked curiously.
Zhang Chunfang was also full of doubts.
Ma Xiaoyao licked his lips and asked Ma Dahai: "Dad, what do you think is the most decent job nowadays? The most promising one?"
"Okay, why are you asking?" Ma Dahai frowned.
"Dad, answer me first." Ma Xiaoyao urged.
Ma Dahai pondered for a moment: "The most dignified and promising job today is that of a civil servant."
