Chapter 43: Could it be that he was stimulated?
Thinking of yesterday's thrilling experience, Xiao Cui's eyes suddenly became red again.
Nodding fiercely: "Alive, you are still alive!"
"It's all thanks to our family's savior that you are able to survive!"
Xiaojun turned his head to look at Song Shiwei who was lying in the bed next to him. The moment he saw her, a flash of lightning flashed through his mind and he remembered.
He was about to sit up trembling.
"Thank you so much for saving me!"
When Song Shiwei saw this, he quickly signaled Zhou Tingyue to help the child lie down and stop tossing him around now that he was feeling better.
"It's okay, it's okay, lie down quickly, you've just gotten better, you have to take good care of yourself! Don't go to the beach on rainy days in the future, and don't get too close to the sea. You must have encountered a rip current yesterday and got swept in by it!"
Xiaojun nodded immediately after hearing this: "Yes, I felt a wave coming yesterday and it took me into the sea. No matter how hard I struggled, it was useless!"
Why did he have the courage to go to the beach alone? It was because he was a good swimmer. Which child who lived by the sea for many years couldn’t swim?
It is because they are confident that they don't take these things seriously.
Unexpectedly, I almost lost my life because of it.
It's just a pity. He went in at that time because he saw a big eel in the sea, which was bigger than the earthen pot at home.
If I could catch this eel, I could probably exchange it for a lot of medicine from Doctor Sun in the village!
Doctor Sun is not from the health center. He is an old Chinese medicine doctor. My family heard that his great-grandfather was an imperial physician in the palace.
His medical skills were indeed good, but due to the country's planned economy, his clinic was closed.
But if anyone in the village has a headache or fever, they will still ask him to exchange medicine.
His grandparents also went to him for treatment. Sometimes when they really had no money, he was willing to pay on credit in advance.
As for where the medicinal herbs in his hands came from, he had heard from the villagers that some of them were collected from the mountains, and some were bought from inland. He didn't know where they were bought from, but he had been practicing Chinese medicine all his life, so he must have his own connections.
Grandpa and grandma had already owed people money for several meals of medicine, so when he saw the big eel, he became anxious.
Thinking that he almost lost his life because of this, he felt a little scared.
Xiao Cui was afraid that the food would get cold, so she handed him the two white buns in her hand.
"Brother, are you hungry? Come eat!"
Only then did Xiaojun notice that there were several lunch boxes placed beside their beds, and the food inside was emitting a fragrant aroma.
Especially the scrambled eggs with tomatoes, I don’t know how long it has been since they had eaten eggs at home.
And these white flour buns, since he could remember, his family had never seen white flour.
My sister didn't have that much money to buy it. If they had the money, they would definitely go to pay Doctor Sun back for the medicine.
Although he was so greedy that he kept swallowing his saliva, he still resolutely pushed the steamed buns and food away.
"I'm not hungry, I don't want to eat! Sister, you eat it!"
Anyone could tell that he was lying, and from the way he kept swallowing his saliva, it was clear that he really wanted to eat.
But in order to give the food to his sister, he insisted that he was not hungry.
Zhou Cheng suddenly felt a little painful when he saw this scene. He had forgotten that his family had a hard time when he was a child. At that time, his parents were still alive, and when there was delicious food at home, they were reluctant to eat it and left it for him and his younger brothers and sisters.
Zhou Tingyue had taken such good care of him over the years that he gradually forgot what it was like to be poor.
Seeing that the brother and sister opposite were still pushing and shoving each other, he stood up and brought the steamed bun in his hand to Xiaojun.
"I'm full, I'll give this to you! Otherwise it will be wasted!"
After saying that, he left the ward without looking back, and no one knew where he went.
Song Shiwei was a little surprised. Zhou Cheng was indeed different from before.
Zhou Tingyue curled the corners of his lips slightly. He didn't expect that this child would be taught a lesson by this brother and sister today.
Ignore him and signal Song Shiwei to continue eating.
However, Xiaojun and Xiaocui stared at the direction Zhou Cheng left for a long time, unable to recover.
Finally, Xiao Cui gave the two white flour buns in her hand to her younger brother and ate one herself.
The two of them ate very carefully, fearing that even a little bit of bread crumbs would fall, and they would feel so sad.
I quickly picked it up and ate it.
This breakfast can be said to be the best meal they have ever had since they were born.
After dinner, Xiao Cui volunteered to wash the lunch boxes.
The doctor came to check on Song Shiwei and Xiaojun and breathed a sigh of relief after seeing their conditions.
"You guys are lucky. You have survived a near-death experience. Now, as long as you take good care of yourself, you will be fine in about a week!"
Zhou Tingyue was also happy to hear the doctor's words.
"Thank you, Director Wang!"
Since there was nothing wrong, Xiaojun asked to be discharged from the hospital in the afternoon. How could their family afford to keep him in the hospital?
All this money was paid in advance by Zhou Tingyue.
But Song Shiwei was afraid that he had not recovered yet and wanted him to get two more days of injections, but Xiaojun said he didn't want any of them. While Song Shiwei was taking a nap, he and her sister packed up and went home.
When Song Shiwei woke up, the two siblings were gone.
She couldn't help but sigh: "These two children are so sensible that it makes me feel distressed!"
Song Shiwei originally wanted to stay in the hospital for two days and then be discharged, but Zhou Tingyue refused to agree and insisted that she stay for two more days.
Ever since he left the hospital that day, Zhou Cheng became very strange. Apart from bringing them meals, he was rarely seen at other times.
Song Shiwei thought he had gone home to take care of his younger siblings, but when she was discharged from the hospital and went home, she asked Zhou Lin and found out that the child never went home during the day except to sleep at night.
This made Song Shiwei curious.
"Where has this child been? Is he stimulated?"
Zhou Tingyue also frowned: "It should be fine, this is the army, he can't do anything bad!"
Song Shiwei knew that the child was a man with his own ideas, so he didn't ask any questions.
Zhou Xinxin and Zhou Wei were taken to the hospital to see Song Shiwei by their second brother before. Later, when they wanted to go again, their second brother didn't let them go, saying that he was afraid of disturbing their mother's rest.
Now that she is back, the two children are so happy that they can't help themselves. Xinxin even threw herself into her arms and hugged her: "Mom, I missed you so much..."
Song Shiwei rubbed her crooked braids and couldn't help but smile: "Mom misses you too!"
Zhou Lin glanced at his sister's crooked braids and blushed: "I've supervised them brushing their teeth and washing their faces every day these days, but I'm not very good at braiding their hair!"
In the past, the job of braiding hair was done by my eldest brother. He was not very good at it, and he was very strong, so if he just pulled it, Xinxin would cry and sweat in pain.
There was no other choice, he could only loosely tie her hair into a few small buns.
