Lu Zhiye pretended to be puzzled and asked: "Brother Jianjun, what happened?"
Huo Jianjun was extremely nervous, thinking that this was hope, but also fear, because it was all just a dream after all.
He considered for a long time before sitting next to Lu Zhiye.
"Xiao Ye, my wife didn't come when you came this time.
In fact, they went abroad to seek medical treatment for a weakness they had been carrying from the womb.
Many doctors here said he would not live past 25.
Originally, he wouldn't even have lived to be 18, but we spent a lot of money to delay it until this time.
I just overheard you on the phone...I didn't mean to overhear."
Lu Zhiye nodded to show that he understood.
Huo Jianjun then continued, "I have heard that there are many capable doctors in the mainland.
Some are still supported by their families. I would like to ask if you have any of them...”
Thinking about the information he had found out before, it was not surprising that Lu Zhiye's ancestors were among the richest people in the neighborhood when they were young and had an old doctor who specialized in treating illnesses under them.
Huo Jianjun is now like a drowning man, and he will hold on to any dead branches he sees.
I just want to give my children a chance to survive.
When Huo Jianguo walked upstairs, he felt mixed emotions when he saw his brother being so humble.
Thinking of his nephew who was dying from illness and the couple who were suffering from inner torture, Huo Jianguo felt very sad.
"If so, is he good at treating this disease?
If possible, could you ask him to come to Hong Kong City?
I will be solely responsible for any expenses incurred.”
There was an eagerness in his voice.
Lu Zhiye sighed: "Brother Jianjun, it's not that I don't want to help you.
But you know, during that special period, many people were persecuted.
The old doctor didn't survive either, but he left us a lot of pills for treating illnesses, mostly for injuries.
The most important thing now is to treat any disease with the right medicine.
I don’t know whether these medicines I left behind are useful to you.”
The hope in Huo Jianjun's eyes was shattered, and the face of this middle-aged man in his 40s showed the fragility of a child.
Lu Zhiye pursed his lips and said, “My wife’s sister-in-law works in the military hospital.
I have also learned the true teachings of the old doctor there. I wonder when your wife will come back, so would it be convenient for me to take her to the mainland for a checkup?"
Huo Jianjun's eyes widened: "Are you telling the truth?"
"Let her see it, at least it will give her some hope. I heard her teacher is still alive.
He's an old doctor who treats the people above him. I'll call my wife and try to get him in touch with her to see if it works out."
Huo Jianjun's hands were shaking with excitement: "Okay, okay, okay.
Then I will call your sister-in-law and ask them to come back as soon as possible."
Lu Zhiye nodded in agreement, leaving Huo Jianjun some space to be alone, then turned and went upstairs.
A few days later, Huo Jianjun's wife came back with the child.
Her face was full of fatigue, and the boy behind her looked even more numb.
As soon as she saw Huo Jianjun, she ran over quickly.
"Ajun, is everything you said true? Is there really someone so capable?"
Huo Jianjun put his arm around his lover's shoulders and comforted him softly, "We have to give it a try. How about you going abroad this time?"
“A new technology has been introduced abroad, but it is not mature yet.
I didn't dare to put my child at risk, so when I heard there was hope on your side, I immediately brought my child back."
The two of them didn't discuss these things in front of their children before, but now, the situation is urgent and they can't care less.
The children behind them stood there with blank faces and empty expressions, and no one knew what they were thinking.
Huo Jianguo punched Huo Qingjin: "We haven't seen each other for a long time."
Huo Qingjin forced a smile and called out, "Second Uncle..."
The family members walked towards the old house with their own thoughts. The moment Huo's mother saw her eldest grandson, she burst into tears.
But she was afraid of touching upon her son and daughter-in-law's sad story, so she quickly wiped away her tears.
She said with a smile on her face: "It's good to be back, it's good to be back.
I have specially arranged for someone to cook Ah Jin's favorite dishes this time. Hurry up and pack up and come sit here to eat."
After dinner, Huo Jianjun followed his mother to the study.
I told Huo's mother the news I learned from Lu Zhiye.
"Mother, I want Jing to take the children to visit the mainland.
At least, that’s the hope.”
Mother Huo was a little hesitant: "But Ajin's body is in bad condition. If there is nothing that can be done after traveling thousands of miles, wouldn't that be a big blow to Ajin?"
Mother Huo paused and said, "Can you invite someone over here?
Can I pay a high price?"
Huo Jianjun shook his head: "I heard from Xiaoye that they are all military doctors in the army.
There is no way to enter and leave the port at will, and besides, I have other ideas."
Mother Huo looked up in surprise: "What else?"
"No matter what the result is, I don't want Ajin to stay here any longer.
Recently, the old man's mind has changed again, and he is thinking about supporting the fourth room.
There is something that someone said that is very true: we should always be on guard against others.
Even a life-saving grace is vulnerable in the face of absolute interests.
So I wanted to get them both out so that if anything happened, at least they wouldn’t be involved.”
Mother Huo clenched the beads in her hand, her voice trembling slightly: "You let Jianguo be in charge of the cooperation in the mainland, is this also your idea???
