"You, you mean the Zhou family?"
Lei Tianming looked at his shocked expression and smiled, "Yes. Unfortunately, Brother Xiaowu is the son-in-law of that family."
"Fuck Liang Guisun, he was killed by that bastard."
Lei Tianming waved at him and said, "Sit down and we'll talk. Actually, you don't know today, but I guess in a couple of days Young Master Liang will just ask you to keep an eye on his house."
Xu Dajun looked at him with a mixture of laughter and tears: "Little Brother Wu always said that he came from a peasant background and that if he hadn't been admitted to university, he wouldn't have been able to come to Beijing. I never thought he had such a big background. Otherwise, I would have asked him for help long ago."
Lei Tianming touched his head and said, "It's my fault for not telling you. Sister Jiaojiao just gave birth to twins recently. Her belly was too big some time ago, and you were not at home, so I didn't mention it."
Xu Dajun quickly began to pick up the things on the ground: "Stop drinking, take me to find Brother Xiaowu, I don't know how to find him. We need to tell him about the Liang family quickly, that kid is not a good person."
Lei Tian understood him at a glance and wanted to say, "Since you know he's not a good person, why are you still interfering?" But then he thought of the young man in the hospital and swallowed his words.
"Aren't you worried that the Liang family will deal with you?"
Xu Dajun paused and shook his head: "Let's talk about it later. Without Xiaowu and you, the two of us brothers would have died long ago."
Lei Tianming didn't say anything more and followed him to take the things home. The two of them went to a nearby post office, and Lei Tianming called Zhang Guoqing.
After making an appointment, Lei Tianming took him to a small park near the compound.
Not long after they arrived, they saw Zhang Guoqing riding a 28-bar bicycle coming from afar.
Lei Tianming was a little moved. "You haven't had much contact with Brother Xiaowu. Wait and listen to what I say. You can watch from the side first."
"what?"
"Here they come, just watch." Lei Tianming waved his hand towards the front.
Zhang Guoqing rode up to him and said with a smile, "Do you remember your brother? By the way, Dajun, come here and tell me where you've been all year."
"Brother Xiaowu, I am right..."
Before Xu Dajun could finish his words, Lei Tianming covered his mouth. "Brother, it's urgent. Dajun's younger brother Maotou has cirrhosis of the liver, and the doctor said he still needs penicillin for treatment."
Zhang Guoqing watched Lei Tianming wink at him, then glanced at Xu Dajun, who looked guilty. Without bothering to ask why, he put his 28-bar back on and said, "How many do you want? I bought some when your sister-in-law gave birth. If you're short of that, I'll find another way."
Lei Tianming let go of Xu Dajun and wiped his palms with a handkerchief in disdain, jokingly saying, "See, my brother has a nickname in the underworld called Timely Rain."
Xu Dajun reached out and grabbed the handlebars, glancing at Zhang Guoqing. "Brother Xiaowu, don't rush back. I have something very important to tell you first."
"Brother, let's go over there and talk."
Zhang Guoqing looked at the two of them, nodded, and followed Lei Tianming and the others to the open space nearby. "Tell me. Did you cause any trouble? No one was killed, right?"
"How is my sister Jiaojiao now? Are the children okay?"
Zhang Guoqing rolled his eyes at him and said, "It's my sister-in-law! Everything is fine. I've been very busy lately and haven't had time to come to your house. Tell Auntie that your sister-in-law really likes the tiger-head shoes she prepared."
"Right? I told my mom that Sister Jiaojiao will definitely like it."
Zhang Guoqing didn't bother to pay attention to this guy who couldn't be corrected. He looked at Xu Dajun and said, "What could be more important than your brother? Tell me quickly. I'll go get the medicine."
Xu Dajun lowered his head and recounted how Young Master Liang contacted him, what he did when he went to the Gu family's old house in Jiangnan, what he saw and heard, and everything he learned from Lei Tianming when he returned today.
"Brother Xiaowu, I really didn't know that was your home. Otherwise, no matter how much benefits you offer me, I won't go there."
How could Zhang Guoqing blame him? The fact that he came over was already a sign of great sincerity.
He smiled and patted Xu Dajun: "Thank you!"
"No! I can't handle it." Seeing his expression, Xu Dajun didn't blame him at all. He immediately breathed a sigh of relief and suggested, "Brother Xiaowu, since he said he'd come back in two days, why don't I go over there as an undercover agent and see what tricks that bastard has..."
Zhang Guoqing slapped him on the forehead with a loud bang: "Don't even think about it! Take good care of your brother and go to work early tomorrow morning."
Xu Dajun laughed out loud after being beaten by him: "Brother Xiaowu, I'm really fine..."
Zhang Guoqing rolled his eyes at him. "How could I not handle that Liang Jiajun kid? Take advantage of this opportunity to get out of this situation. Listen to me and don't get involved. I know what's going on here, and if there's anything I need help with, I'll definitely be open to you."
"real?"
"Is that true?" Zhang Guoqing glared at him and laughed, "That kid is crazy. What a treasure. Let him dig. His family is rich. Let's see what he does."
Xu Dajun looked at Lei Tianming and saw him shake his head slightly and lower his eyelids: "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Zhang Guoqing smiled when he heard that, got on the car again, and waved: "Wait here for a while, I'll come back as soon as I get back."
Watching him leave, Lei Tianming put his arm around Xu Dajun's shoulders and said, "Since Brother Xiaowu said not to interfere, come with me to report tomorrow. I have the medicine now, and I have some money. Once Maotou is discharged, life will get better and better."
Xu Dajun pondered for a moment. "Okay, I'll listen to you. But I plan to go check on Scar Brother soon. He was able to connect Young Master Liang with me, so he should have a backup plan. I have to tell him that I have to work and won't be available for work."
Lei Tianming thought for a moment and said, "That's fine. Let's go find Scar after the formalities are completed. Remember to bring Heizi with you. Heizi's grandmother has done him a great favor."
The two men considered looking for Scar to help Zhang Guoqing, but where did Zhang Guoqing need it? As he rode back, he cursed the Liang family and planned to have a good talk with Scar that night.
After not seeing each other for such a long time, he wondered if the old man had forgotten who was the one who shamelessly cried and shouted "Brother Xiaowu" in the past?
If I hadn't reached out to help him back then, where would this old guy be?
He took a box of penicillin from home. Because Old Mrs. Cheng and Aunt Sun were there, Zhang Guoqing didn't have time to explain it to Zhou Jiao. He could only explain it in detail after he finished the business.
Back at the park, he didn't mention going to the hospital. Firstly, his sudden appearance in the ward might leak out, and secondly, there were too many germs in the hospital, and his three children were too young.
When they left, Zhang Guoqing secretly slipped Lei Tianming fifty yuan, asking him to deposit it into the Maotou Hospital account. Since he was going to do a favor, he might as well be generous.
Are there any kings, princes, generals, or ministers who are not of the same kind? He always reminded himself not to look down on anyone. He still remembered his father-in-law's words: It is better to help someone in need than to add icing on the cake.
With this money, at least the two brothers can get through the current difficulties. Even if Xu Dajun lives an ordinary life, it will be worth it.
Having experienced life as an orphan without the support of his elders, Zhang Guoqing understands better than anyone how difficult it is to find the right path. It's even harder for orphans with children to support them.
