After hearing what their mother said, the noisy children instantly fell silent.
"The person knocking on the door seemed to be saying..." Su Zhiyuan suspected that he heard wrongly, "Help?"
"Hurry up and open the door!" Bai Lu said hurriedly, "Why are you standing there stupidly?"
The boss hurriedly responded "Oh" and ran to open the door.
His younger brothers followed behind.
When he saw Lin Yulan standing outside the door, Su Zhiyuan wondered, "Didn't my mother give you potatoes? Isn't a bag of potatoes enough for your family?"
"No, it's Damei...save my Damei, please?"
Lin Yulan had a sallow complexion and thin skin, and her lips were chapped and turned white, as if she would faint at any time.
Her current pitiful and helpless look was very different from her aggressive and arrogant attitude during the previous quarrels.
"What's wrong with Damei?" Bai Lu took a step back to the door holding Jin Bao and asked anxiously.
Lin Yulan grabbed Bai Lu's trouser legs and knelt on the ground, "I know you know the doctors at the health center and you are well-connected. Sister-in-law Su, it was my fault before. I am not a human being... I beg you, I will have a beautiful daughter in my life."
, please save her..."
She cried bitterly as she spoke, "If Damei is gone, I won't be able to survive."
"Get up quickly, oh, kneeling is not the answer..."
Bai Lu held Xiao Jinbao in her arms and it was inconvenient to support her.
She said to her sons: "Zhiyuan, Nan Bing, please go to Uncle Xu's house to see what happened to Damei. Wen Nian, Xiaosi, please help Aunt Lin up quickly."
Although the children of the Su family hated Lin Yulan, they couldn't help but feel moved when they heard her crying so hopelessly and helplessly. They started to act according to their mother's instructions without much thought.
Not long after the eldest son and the second son rushed into the Xu family's house, they were shocked to find the Xu family's father and daughter unconscious.
"Brother, do you think these are potatoes? They are all green..." Su Nanbing picked up half a piece of leftover potatoes and frowned tightly.
His elder brother glanced at the potatoes in his hand and said, "They are probably sprouts, so they have turned green."
"Ah? You can't eat sprouted potatoes. If you eat too much, you will die. Doesn't Uncle Xu know that?"
"We don't have time to think about these problems anymore. We have to find a way to send people to the health center now!"
Su Zhiyuan stared at the two people who had fainted due to poisoning, frowned and thought for a while, and said, "I will carry Xu Damei to the health center first. You quickly go to the building to find some uncles and ask them to carry Uncle Xu to the health center!"
"Okay!" Su Nanbing turned around and ran out.
When Bai Lu saw the second child running out, she hurriedly asked: "What's going on? How is Damei?"
"I ate sprouted potatoes and got poisoned!" After the second brother finished speaking, he shouted to his two younger brothers, "Third brother, fourth brother, go to the first and second floors and knock on the door, and ask some uncles to help take Uncle Xu to the health center.
, I am responsible for knocking on the doors on the third and fourth floors..."
"Okay!" Su Wenian and Su Xiaosi ran to the first floor and the second floor.
It's factory working hours now, and most people are not at home.
He Dali, who lives across the street, happened to be on leave from work today. Hearing the noise outside, he hurriedly got up to help, but his wife stopped him and told him not to mind his own business.
"How do you call this nosy? Didn't you hear? Brother Qiang and Damei are both dying..."
"Although it is public medical care now, you have to pay the registration fees and consultation fees yourself. Do you think the Xu family has the money to pay for these fees? What if you help send Xu Qiang to the health center and the doctor asks you to pay?
"
He Dali was slightly startled, "Well, you can't just not help us with everything, right? If we really have to pay money, then we can just advance it first. When Brother Qiang gets better, he will definitely return the money to us!"
"
Seeing that he was about to open the door and walk out after finishing speaking, Li Qinghua grabbed him tightly.
"I heard that if the illness is very serious, the consultation fee may cost more than ten yuan. If you put the money in advance, what will we eat this month? Let's eat sprouted potatoes too?" At this point, she began to cry again.
He said his life was miserable.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuoriuu, I haven't enjoyed a day's happiness since I followed you. Now I am hungry and full, but I can't starve to death at last. Do you really want to starve me and Yanzi to death? Wuwuwu..."
…”
He Dali hurriedly comforted her, "Qinghua, that's not what I meant. Oh, please stop crying."
"I cry all the time. You always want to help others, but you have never thought about us, mother and daughter. What does it mean to be a cushion first? How do you know that Xu Qiang can survive if he is sent to the hospital? If the treatment is not good,
What if he dies? Can you still expect Lin Yulan to pay you back?"
Li Qinghua burst into tears and cried, "Then Lin Yulan will be a penniless widow if her husband and daughter die. She will definitely have to go back to her hometown in the countryside. How can she pay you back?"
There was only one door between them, and what she and her husband said was heard by Lin Yulan, who was standing outside the door of Su's house opposite.
She was angry and cursed: "Li Qinghua, who borrowed money from your family? Is your family He Dali very rich? My old Xu family wants to borrow money from you? Keep your twenty-something dollars a month well hidden
You can live your whole life with a salary of RMB 10,000!”
Lin Yulan scolded her like this, which made Li Qinghua blush with shame.
"I wonder who just knelt down in front of me and begged me to lend you some beans on credit? Tsk! If you are so courageous, how can you borrow food from everyone?"
"Okay," He Dali pulled his wife into the room, "please stop saying a few words!"
"When my husband dies, I will be an unwanted widow. Will I still be afraid of her? What the hell, what the hell!" Li Qinghua cursed a lot, "Look at her mean appearance, maybe my husband and daughter
They were all killed by her, Lin Yulan!"
Lin Yulan felt sticky in her throat, as if she was so angry that she wanted to spit out a mouthful of blood.
She pressed her chest, her vision went dark, and she completely fainted and fell to the ground.
"Xiao Lin? Lin Yulan, wake up..."
Unable to wake anyone up, Bai Lu hurriedly put Jin Bao back into the cradle, held up Lin Yulan's head with one hand, and pinched her body hard with the other. It took a long time to wake her up.
During this period, Su Zhiyuan had already carried Xu Damei to the health center, while Lao Er and Su Xiaosi also found an uncle respectively, and the two men worked together to carry Xu Qiang to the health center.
"It's so beautiful, so beautiful..." Lin Yulan called her daughter's name in a daze.
"Zhiyuan has already carried Damei to the health center to see a doctor. Don't worry, Damei will be fine!" Bai Lu comforted her.
"Health center, I want to go to the health center, go to the health center..." Lin Yulan was thinking about her comatose daughter. She wanted to stand up, but because she had been hungry for too many days, she was weak and fell back to the ground as soon as she stood up.
.
Bai Lu caught her in time and carefully helped her to the chair to sit down, "I still have some of the pimple soup I made for lunch. You should eat some first. Don't wait for Damei and Lao Xu to wake up and you will be sick again."
