Chapter 69 Qi Rui
The two children were brought in in a timely manner, and they would be fine as long as they were given another IV drip. However, they could not sit still and wait in the hospital, so Jiang He discussed with Lu Mingfeng about taking the children for a walk around the county. When they came to a supply and marketing store, they thought they could buy some daily necessities, so they said to Lu Mingfeng, "Would you like a pack of cigarettes?"
Lu Mingfeng raised his eyebrows and asked, "You're buying it for me?"
"I'll buy it for you." Jiang He was about to flip through the receipts when he suddenly remembered that he still had so many cigarettes in his space. Why waste the receipts? "I'll buy it when I get home tonight."
Lu Mingfeng hid the smile in his eyes and looked down to see Xiao Qi staring at a silicone doll wearing a floral dress in the window outside. He leaned down and asked, "Do you want it?"
Xiao Qi shook his head and said, "I don't want to. My uncle has already spent a lot of money on Xiao Qi's illness. I can't be so rude."
Jiang He rubbed the child's head with concern, and asked the saleswoman who was still looking at Lu Mingfeng shyly, "How much is this doll?"
"Oh! 15 yuan." The female salesperson didn't even raise her eyelids, with an indifferent look on her face.
Although Jiang He knew that most salespeople in this era were regular employees and were used to seeing people coming and going, and they all carried a sense of pride, he saw that she was still smiling at Lu Mingfeng, "Oh, is that so? Mingfeng, how can you be a father? The child is looking at the baby, and you don't even show some respect?"
"Me?" Lu Mingfeng pointed at himself with a surprised expression in his eyes.
"What? You're married?" The saleswoman immediately retracted her lustful expression as soon as she saw it.
"Of course, one is seven years old and the other is two years old." Jiang He nodded quickly and winked at Xiao Liuzi and Xiao Qi.
"Dad." Xiao Liuzi was a very smart child and immediately hugged Lu Mingfeng's waist.
"What a pity." The saleswoman looked regretful, but Jiang He leaned forward at this time and did not notice the slight change in Lu Mingfeng's eyes. "My buddy's wife died when she gave birth. She only makes 30 yuan a month, and she is busy from morning till night. There is no elderly person at home, and it is very hard to take care of two children."
The saleswoman narrowed her eyes and glanced at Jiang He suspiciously. Seeing that he looked quite serious, she asked, "Really?"
"Really? Look, I didn't take good care of the kids, and both of them got a fever. That's why I asked them to come here to hang out with the three of them." Jiang He said with a sad look, "I just feel sorry for my sister. If she knew that the two kids suffered so much, she would be so sad."
"Wow..., why are you so pitiful?" The female salesperson suddenly burst into tears and took out a handkerchief from her pocket to wipe her eyes.
"Seeing that my child likes this doll, I wanted to collect some money to buy it, but... I'm really short of money." Jiang He took out a few banknotes from his pocket. The largest one was only one dollar for a tissue.
"Do you think this money is enough? Actually, let me tell you, this doll was brought from the north by my husband when he sold his sports car. He said it was a Ruth doll. I brought it here to make some money..." the saleswoman said with some embarrassment.
"Thank you!" Jiang He showed a grateful expression and counted the money he had just taken out. "Look, there's still a little difference."
"Brother, there's nothing more to say. I'll sell it to you." The female salesperson slapped the table, took out the unopened doll from under the cabinet, and handed it to Xiao Qi.
