President Xu wholeheartedly agreed with Fan Xiaofan's decision to go to the provincial capital.
Fan Xiaofan, along with Fu Weidong and Secretary Wang, got into a jeep and headed to the provincial capital.
After she left, President Xu was a little puzzled. Why hadn't Fan Xiaofan's parents come to pick up the child? Although Beidu was far away, there were still trains. A child almost had such a big accident, so why hadn't the parents shown any concern?
Little did he know that the Zhou family had sent a letter, but it was addressed to Fan Yunli.
On this day, Uncle Zhou rushed to Qingcheng and, after making many inquiries, finally found President Xu, who said that his sister had written to him, asking him to take Fan Xiaofan away.
He had a dark, thin, and honest appearance, looking like an old farmer, but his eyes were darting around...
President Xu cursed Fan Xiaofan's parents in his heart for being irresponsible. The child was abandoned by his uncle's family and now they want him to take him back. Xiaofan doesn't even remember what happened before. What will happen if he suffers a loss or hardship?
He said with a forced smile, "That's really unfortunate. Comrade Xiao Fan went to the provincial capital and just left. He's not here with me."
"Why did she go to the provincial capital? What is she doing there?"
Uncle Zhou immediately bristled, asking repeatedly, "I just received a letter from Fan Yunli. This niece is much more generous than her mother; she even promised me something if I get things done..."
He originally planned to make this trip and bring the child back, but the child ended up in the provincial capital, a place he'd never been before.
President Xu naturally wouldn't tell Uncle Zhou the real reason why Fan Xiaofan went to the provincial capital. He said with a headache, "That child is not in good health and can't remember things from the past. The doctor suspects that she has suffered a brain injury, so she went to the provincial hospital for examination."
Upon hearing this, Uncle Zhou looked on in astonishment: "What could possibly be wrong with her? She just doesn't remember things from before, what's the big deal? It won't stop her from eating or drinking. Why does she have to go to a big hospital in the provincial capital? How much money will that cost?"
His heart aches whenever he thinks about it.
President Xu smiled but remained silent.
Uncle Zhou pondered for a moment and then said, "Wait a minute, who's going to pay for the medical treatment?"
President Xu looked at Uncle Zhou: "Originally, it would naturally be given by her parents, but you said that her parents asked you to take it away, so naturally the money should be given by you..."
"How much, how much?"
Uncle Zhou shuddered and asked.
President Xu said with a smile, "Oh, I didn't know that much, but I do know that the hospitals in the provincial capital use the best equipment. I've also heard that if someone has a brain problem, they need surgery. All things considered, it must cost at least a hundred or so yuan..."
Uncle Zhou screamed instantly: "What? A hundred or so yuan?"
His family's total savings were less than ten yuan, and they were still carrying the money given to them by Fan Yunli. Uncle Zhou suddenly felt that he was losing money by talking to Fan Yunli.
He could do so much with that money, why would he give it to some penny-losing brat?
President Xu smiled and said, "Your uncle is very devoted. When she returns in a few days, I will have someone inform you, and you can bring the money over."
"Come over here? Come over here!" Uncle Zhou thought he must be crazy to agree to the trip, considering it would cost him a hundred or so yuan. He waved his hand and said, "Don't come looking for me. It's not like I took her to the hospital. I won't pay for it."
After saying that, he turned and left, and President Xu did not stop him.
After leaving the commune, Uncle Zhou kept cursing and swearing, clutching his hungry stomach, and took out a hard cornbread from his pocket and took a bite to stave off his hunger.
He traveled from Shuncheng to Qingcheng, but there was no car to take him, so he had to rely on his own two legs.
