After a few days of peace, Ye Jin planned to go to the newly purchased store to check the progress.
Ye Wei was bored staying at home every day, so when she saw her sister going out, she hurried to follow her.
"Sister, I want to go with you and take a look too."
Ye Wei pulled her arm and acted coquettishly. Ye Jin had no choice but to take her with her.
"I can take you there, but you have to be obedient and not run around alone. If you agree to my request, we'll set off now."
"Sister, I promise, I definitely promise!"
The two were about to go out when Xiaohuo ran out with a squeak. Regardless of whether Ye Jin was willing or not, it jumped onto her shoulder and tightly grasped her cotton jacket with its furry little paws.
"This little thing wants to go out too."
Ye Jin held Xiao Huo in his arms, and Ye Wei quickly hugged him.
"Sister, my hands are cold, let me hold you."
She held Xiaohuo tightly in her arms, her face pressed against the thick fur on its back, which felt soft and comfortable.
The two sisters came to the store and saw from afar Lao Liu and Xiao Huangmao directing a group of people working enthusiastically.
In just a few days, the store has undergone tremendous changes.
The walls were painted inside and out, and putty was applied again. The originally bumpy dirt floor was filled with cement, which was spread very smoothly, and then a layer of green paint was applied on it.
All the doors and windows were removed and replaced with new ones, and the beams were repainted.
The carpenter was making furniture inside, and the plumber was reconnecting the water and electricity in the store.
When a new store opens, tables, stools, cabinets, and especially some wall cabinets, must be assembled on site.
There is also a cashier counter on the outside, where you can sell some fried products and buns. There is also a new window for noodles, where you can pay here and get the noodles over there.
Everything was planned in advance by Ye Jin, and the two of them did not act on their own, but proceeded step by step according to the plan.
Ye Jin went in to direct the work. Ye Wei originally wanted to follow him in, but her eyes were attracted by the wall outside, and she unconsciously wanted to go out and take a look.
"This wall is such a nuisance here. It's blocking my sister's new store. Not many people can see it."
Ye Wei walked around curiously and unknowingly came to a house.
The yard of this family's house was open, and an old lady was lying on the cold ground.
Ye Wei was so frightened that she rushed in without caring about anything else.
"Is anyone home? Is anyone home? An old lady has fainted!"
Ye Wei shouted anxiously, but no one responded to her.
Ye Wei was extremely anxious. She put her hand under the old lady's nose and found that she was breathing more than she was breathing.
She didn't know how to give first aid, so she turned around and saw a cart in the corner.
She pushed the cart over without saying a word. She had done a lot of housework over the years and although she was not very old, she was very strong.
She took great pains to move the old lady onto the cart.
She pulled the cart with great effort, asking for directions as she walked, and finally got the person to the hospital.
The old lady was pushed into the emergency room and the nurse urged her to pay. Ye Wei touched her pocket and broke out in a cold sweat.
She is a teenage girl and she doesn't work, so where does she get the money?
etc!
Ye Wei took out 10 big unity notes from her pocket, and suddenly remembered that her sister was afraid that she would have no money to spend, so she gave her 100 yuan two days ago.
She originally refused to take it, but her sister forced it into her pocket. She didn't expect it to come in handy so soon.
Ye Wei followed the nurse to pay the deposit. She paid 80 yuan out of 100 yuan, leaving only a pitiful 20 yuan.
Ye Wei had no idea about money, but she still felt the pain.
My grandma said that 100 yuan is three months’ salary for a worker nowadays. I didn’t expect that it would be gone in one trip to the hospital.
But the old lady lived alone and had no one to take care of her. If she left her alone, she would most likely die.
It would have been fine if she hadn't seen this, but when she saw it, she couldn't help but want to intervene.
The old man was rescued for an hour, and Ye Wei waited outside for an hour.
When the old man was pushed out of the emergency room, Ye Wei hurriedly followed.
"Little girl, don't you have any adults at home?"
The nurse was surprised to find a teenage girl guarding an elderly man. Where were the adults at home? In such cases, adults were needed to supervise the child.
"No."
Ye Wei shook her head in frustration. If only there were an adult here, she wouldn't have to stay here any longer.
The elderly must be taking care of the left-behind children, as the young and middle-aged people in the family have all gone out to work. The nurse looked at the two of them with sympathy, especially when she looked at Ye Wei, her eyes softened a lot.
The old lady is quite old and has difficulty taking care of herself. This little girl seems to be still in school. It must be very difficult for her to attend school and take care of her grandmother at the same time.
The old lady woke up not long after she was pushed into the ward. She stared at Ye Wei with her small eyes.
"Grandma, your mouth is so dry, would you like some water?"
Ye Wei picked up the thermos from under the bed, went outside to get a bottle of hot water, disinfected the hospital's stainless steel cup, poured a cup of boiling water for the old lady and set it aside to cool.
"Who are you? I'm in the hospital now? You brought me here?"
"Grandma, you are in the hospital now. I passed by your door and saw you fainted on the ground. No matter how I called you, you wouldn't wake up. I had no choice but to send you to the hospital."
Ye Wei immediately started to explain, and the old lady's face became very ugly.
She was alone guarding the old house. Her children had already started their own families and careers and had gone to other provinces to develop their careers in the early years. They had basically never come back except during the Chinese New Year.
It wasn't that she didn't want to follow them, but she mentioned it a few times and they didn't respond, which showed that no one wanted to live with her, an old woman.
She was an old lady with children, but in the end she became an unwanted widower. The old lady felt very sad.
The reason she collapsed this time was because she had a heart attack and the quick-acting heart pills prescribed by the hospital were out of stock. She wanted to run out for help, but ended up fainting.
She originally thought she was going to die, but unexpectedly she was saved by a little girl.
This little girl looks to be only in her teens. I didn't expect her to be so compassionate at such a young age.
When she got old, even her sons and daughters were unreliable. In the end, it was a stranger who saved her. The old lady felt very cold when she thought about it.
"Your heart was almost gone and your breathing was getting weaker and weaker. I was afraid you were dead, so I took the initiative. Please don't be angry with me."
Ye Wei thought she was angry with him, and immediately explained anxiously.
The old lady came to her senses and a kind smile appeared on her cold face.
"You saved me, how could I be angry with you? If I were angry, wouldn't that mean I'm an ungrateful person?"
"I'm glad you're not angry. I thought I did something wrong."
Ye smiled shyly. The old lady pointed to the cup on the side. She hadn't had any water for a long time, and her lips were dry and cracked.
