Su Lan felt heartbroken and in agony whenever she thought about her child going blind.
Lu Zhixia noticed that Lan Jie's condition was not right, so she reached out and helped her into the ward.
"The doctor said that the child might recover someday."
“But I’m worried that the children won’t recover. What will happen to them in the future?” Su Lan blamed herself. “If only I had gone to the toilet with the children this morning, this wouldn’t have happened.”
Lu Zhixia said, "This is not your fault. Even if he hadn't found this opportunity, he would have found another one. As long as she is in the tenement building, it's impossible to guard against her."
A thought suddenly occurred to her: if Liu Yue'e had nowhere to go, would she return to the tenement building? She decided to take some time to go to the law enforcement team again and convey this idea to Luo Cheng.
Zhou Cheng continued, "Honey, we have to believe the baby will be alright. Let's be optimistic, okay?"
Su Lan nodded to them with difficulty. Perhaps this was just how life was. She had made so much money yesterday and was especially happy.
Today dealt her a heavy blow.
Lu Zhixia helped the person into the house and saw Zhou Yong feeding his sister water. His eyes were red, clearly indicating that he had just been crying.
"I brought some steamed buns with me, let's eat something first."
"I don't want to eat," Su Lan said slowly. "You guys eat!"
Lu Zhixia took out a steamed bun from the bag, walked over, and put it in her hand.
"You advised me before, and now I'm advising you too. There are many hurdles in life, but as long as you try your best to overcome them, everything will be fine."
"This is a small hospital. If there's no progress, we can go to a big hospital. If the big hospital can't cure us, we can go abroad."
"But the prerequisite is that you must take care of your health and not collapse at the most critical moment, otherwise it will delay the child's treatment!"
Su Lan looked at the steamed bun in her hand. Indeed, if she didn't eat, her body would break down, which would be worse.
She put the steamed bun in her mouth, but the usually delicious bun tasted like a wax pill to her mouth, making it difficult to swallow. However, she tried her best to swallow it.
Lu Zhixia gave each of them a steamed bun. No matter how much she said, it was useless. Some things they had to let go of on their own.
The atmosphere was a bit oppressive, and they ate very little.
Lu Zhixia took out a handkerchief to wipe her mouth, then stood up and said to them,
"I'm going to the umbrella factory to see how the custom-made umbrellas are. If they're okay, I'll arrange for someone to bring them back tomorrow."
Zhou Cheng stood up excitedly and chimed in, "Yes, and umbrellas too! I want to sell more umbrellas! I want to sell all the umbrellas so I can have money for my daughter's treatment."
Su Lan grasped at a straw; if she couldn't earn money, her husband could, which would alleviate some of their family's difficulties. She looked at Lu Zhixia...
"I'd like your brother-in-law to take more umbrellas, and I'll pay you when they're sold out, okay?"
"Of course, but I need to check on the umbrella situation first before I can make a decision."
"Then hurry up and go, don't waste time here."
Lu Zhixia picked up her bag and left the ward. The hospital was such a depressing place; she felt much better after leaving.
I rode my bicycle toward the umbrella factory. The weather was unusually hot and humid today. If I remember correctly, it was supposed to rain tomorrow afternoon, but it wasn't going to be heavy at first.
On the third day, the rain intensified, forcing many factories to shut down for a day, and some places even experienced power outages.
These were all memories from her past life.
When I turned onto another road while riding my bike, I saw Xiao Wang. His bike was parked on the side of the road, and he was handing out ice cream to someone.
"Xiao Wang!" she called out, then rode off in his direction.
Hearing the familiar voice, Xiao Wang looked up and saw Lu Zhixia, whom he hadn't seen for several days. He quickly gave the person who bought the ice cream his change.
"Welcome to visit us again."
"Young man, you have a sweet tongue. I'll definitely buy your ice cream next time I see you. It's so cheap."
After the woman finished speaking, she led her child away. She liked these kinds of ice creams that were practically free; they were economical and just enough for her and her daughter to each have one.
The ice cream is a little melted, so we need to finish it quickly.
Lu Zhixia stopped the car and noticed that his suitcase was not closed.
"Are the ice creams sold out?"
"Yes! We just sold out. It's hot today, so the ice cream is selling very well. But I don't plan to go back and get more stock, because I'm afraid I won't be able to sell it all."
"Then you can come with me to the umbrella factory to take a look at the custom-made umbrellas. If they're suitable, we can pick them up first thing tomorrow morning."
"Okay, I'll go with you." Xiao Wang got on his bicycle, opened his water bottle and took a sip of water. Life is all about fighting.
He needs to work harder. What kind of house?
Once you have a car, you'll have a wife too.
Thinking of his wife, he couldn't help but look at Lu Zhixia. If only he could find someone like Sister Xia, how wonderful that would be.
Lu Zhixia rode her bicycle through several intersections and arrived at the umbrella factory. Unlike last time, the gate was wide open.
So she rode her bike straight in, turned a corner and saw the large factory area, where she saw many people coming and going, dozens more than last time.
Upon closer inspection, I noticed that Director Niu, who was giving instructions, had changed from his previous disheveled appearance to wearing a nearly new factory uniform and a hat, looking quite energetic.
"Hurry up and finish this, everyone! We'll have extra meat for dinner tonight!"
"Okay!" someone in the crowd replied.
Everyone was very motivated when they heard there was meat to eat, and their hands moved much faster than before.
"Director Niu!"
Hearing someone call his name, he turned around and saw Comrade Lu. He immediately smiled and walked over.
