Chapter 164: Visiting the Sick
“Thank you for your patronage, welcome to come again next time~”
Lin Xi's voice was clear and pleasant, but in Sun Kege's eyes it sounded like the voice of a devil, the kind of devil that would trick him into spending all his money.
Brother Sun Ke was so scared that he ran away at such a fast speed that he disappeared with the mixed bag of konjac in a flash.
Lin Xi had originally planned to set up the stall until the end of the exercise time, but a patient came to find Lin Xi and said that the nurse was looking for her. Lin Xi felt a little strange. She had just started setting up the stall, so it was only about three o'clock now. What did the nurse want to see her about?
She packed up her stall with doubts in her mind, and handed the food to Shen Sangning in front of the ghost patient, asking her to eat it directly and put it in her four-dimensional pocket.
The patient saw this and just pretended that he didn't see it at all. Lin Xi asked casually, "Do you know what the nurse wants to see me about?" She didn't expect to get an answer from the patient. She just asked casually, but she didn't expect the patient to know.
"She said it seemed like someone came to see you, to visit the patient."
It's really amazing that in this strange world with rules, there are people who come to the hospital to visit patients, and to visit themselves.

Lin Xi looked at the patient with an expression that said, "You don't have a fever, do you?" The patient was angry and embarrassed, but there was also a hint of jealousy in his expression. Ghosts have no relatives or friends in this world. Even if they become family members under the matchmaking of "home", it is only a superficial relationship in the final analysis. If a family member enters a dangerous place like a hospital, the ghosts in the family will never look at it.
Who knows, in just two days, "home" will start looking for new family members to fill the vacancy.
The patient's expression just now clearly showed that he was jealous of Lin Xi for having someone visit him.
Lin Xi, with a puzzled look on her face, returned to her ward under the guidance of the nurse. Before she entered, she saw two people sitting in her ward.
It was a joke, but there really were people coming to visit the patient, and there were two of them at once.
Lin Xi was also familiar with these two people. One was the owner of a funeral home. She took a chair and sat on it. There were two suitcases at her feet. Needless to say, they were the funeral home's revenue from the previous month. However, Lin Xi had originally thought that she would just leave them at home, but she didn't expect that she would actually bring them to visit the patient.
The other one sat on the vacant bed, number 2, her feet barely touching the floor. She supported herself on the edge with both hands, dangling her feet. This was also an old acquaintance, Lin Lin, now acting principal of Binjiang City Central Elementary School.
To be honest, Lin Xi knew that Qingmu Psychiatric Hospital was also in Binjiang City, but he really didn't expect these two people to come to visit.
Lin Lin spoke first. She hadn't seen Lin Xi since the school dungeon was over. Now that the two of them were no longer in a "mother-daughter" relationship, she called out Lin Xi's name without hesitation: "Lin Xi, why did you become a psychopath?"
Lin Xi hit Lin Lin on the head with a chestnut, and Lin Lin was stunned for a moment. Before she could say a word, she heard Lin Xi say, "How can you talk like that? I was your mother after all, and at the very least, I'm your elder. How can I call you by your first name?"
Lin Lin ate a chestnut as soon as they met. The arrogance she had developed as the principal suddenly disappeared without a trace. She pursed her lips, trying not to cry. She thought for a moment and was about to call out "Auntie Lin" when she saw Shen Sangning's expression.
Lin Lin endured it for a moment before finally uttering a name: "Sister..."
"good."
Lin Xi was satisfied, and looked at Lin Lin again: "So what are you doing here?"
——I came to see you having fun.
Lin Lin couldn't say this at all. If she did, Lin Xi would beat her up again. So she could only say, "I heard you were admitted to a mental hospital. I was worried that you couldn't eat or sleep well, so I came to see you."
"You can't come to visit the patient empty-handed, so what did you bring?"
Lin Lin's eyes widened. She had only made up an excuse; she hadn't expected Lin Xi to do such a thing as asking for a gift from a harmless child. She hesitated for a long time before finally pulling out five thousand yuan from her pocket.
This is her salary, which is paid to her by the school finance department. The monthly salary of the ghosts in the world of rules and strange stories is not much, and Lin Lin is the acting principal, so her salary cannot be the same as the official salary, so this salary is set. Lin Lin also thinks it is enough.
After all, she is just a principal with the cultural level of a third-grade primary school student. Who would give her a particularly high salary?
Besides, she eats and lives in school on weekdays, so this money is already a lot for Lin Lin. She can also go to the canteen at the school gate to buy a lot of things from time to time.
If Lin Xi knew what Lin Lin was thinking, he would probably sneer in disdain: "What a waste."
Lin Lin had no intention of giving all five thousand yuan to Lin Xi. This was her monthly salary, and it hadn't been long since she became the principal. She had just received her first month's salary, and this was all her assets. If she gave all her salary to Lin Xi, what would she eat and drink?
She was going to pick out a few of the five thousand yuan, and give Lin Xi a big red envelope of eight hundred yuan for helping her become the principal and making everyone remember Zhu Zhu. Lin Lin was a generous girl, not holding back at all. If it were in reality, if such a junior gave an elder a big red envelope of 800 yuan, the elder would at least say respectfully, "Thank you, little sister."
But who is Lin Xi? Lin Xi is notoriously shameless. Before Lin Lin could even point out the money, she snatched all the money from Lin Lin's hand. Five thousand yuan is really a thick bundle, which is fifty hundred-yuan bills.
Lin Xi wasn't sure how much money this one had, but it was definitely around four or five thousand. Having been scammed out of a lot of patients lately, Lin Xi had a general understanding of cash.
"ah?"
The money was snatched away by Lin Xi before Lin Lin could even warm it up in her hands. She subconsciously wanted to take it back, but before she could do anything, she felt Shen Sang Ning's gaze.
At that moment, Lin Lin knew: the money was definitely gone.
When she realized this, tears started to well up in Lin Lin's eyes. She held them back tightly to prevent them from falling. She watched Lin Xi start counting the money and said hesitantly, "Can you leave some for me? I need to buy some snacks..."
It's really not her fault that she is so weak. No ghost dares to be strong in front of Shen Sangning, otherwise it will be strong enough to go into Shen Sangning's stomach. She didn't want this to happen, but the money was already in Lin Xi's hands. What could she do?
I can only beg Lin Xi in this humbly!
Lin Xi was not moved at all. After counting the money and finding that it was five thousand and handing it over to Chen Sang Ning, Lin Xi said to Lin Lin: "Lin Lin, you are a child, you can't hold so much money. Besides, the canteen sells junk food, it's not good to eat too much. Don't lie to me that eating requires money. Don't I know what the situation is in the school? As the principal, you provide food and accommodation, and you don't have to spend a penny."
"Be good, be obedient. I'll save this money for you and give it to you when you grow up and need it."
She lied to the children! She lied to the children!
Lin Lin was almost unable to hold back her tears, and the owner of the funeral home nearby observed a two-minute silence for the acting principal of the Central Primary School. The comments were full of accusations against Lin Xi:
Lin Xi is still a human being, even cheating a child out of their money. All I can say is... well done, Lin Lin, it's not that I'm heartless, it's that you're taking the money and it's really useless. You might as well give it to Ning Ning.
[I'm dying of laughter! This year's funniest joke! I should have waited until next year's Spring Festival Gala to see it. Hahahaha, "I'll give it to you when you grow up." Lin Lin does grow up eventually!]
[Lin Lin, a simulator of a child who is bullied by Lin Xi.]
I saw the look in the funeral parlor owner's eyes, and it was my look too.
[Stop talking! I saw gloating in the funeral home owner's eyes. Are you gloating too? You're so mean! Take Lin Lin away. There are no good aunts here!]
[The one who took Lin Lin away earlier, are you also trying to cheat Lin Lin out of her money? Don't go. Don't look at Lin Lin being soft now, she's only like that in front of Lin Xi. [Lin Lin's ghost photo.gif]]
But the funeral home owner couldn't gloat for long, because Lin Xi set her sights on him again. She had actually been eyeing the two suitcases at his feet for a long time. The first time, he only brought one suitcase, which contained 150,000 yuan. Now, with two suitcases, he had at least 300,000 yuan.
The owner of the funeral home was quite conscious. Anyway, the money was supposed to be given to Lin Xi. The moment Lin Xi looked over, she took the initiative to hand over the box with a big gesture: "Sister Xi, this is the profit of last month, please keep it."
Needless to say, after Lin Xi took it, the thing went into Shen Sang Ning's stomach. She swallowed the suitcase directly, and after a while, she spit it out. The two suitcases fell to the ground, bounced a little, and landed right at the feet of the funeral home owner.
It's a bit like eating a whole roast chicken and spitting out the bones...
After Lin Xi shook this thought out of his mind, he asked the funeral home owner, "So why did you two come to visit me when I was sick?"
The funeral home owner and Lin Lin looked at each other, and finally it was Lin Lin who spoke: "We met at the door of your house. She came to pay the profit, and I just happened to have nothing to do and went to see if you were home. But there was a quarrel at home, and they refused to open the door no matter what I said."
When talking about this, Lin Xi could imagine what the scene was like, because this time he really didn't go home at all, not only this time but also the last time. Now his family must be very angry, not getting any happiness points, and someone is coming to the door, his family must be very aggrieved.
Lin Xi understood the owner's idea, but he couldn't let him do what he wanted. He had said before that if the owner of the funeral home came, he would let him in, but he ignored his words. Next time he went home, he would definitely teach this guy a lesson, and if he didn't obey, he would move to another home.
If Lin Xi and Shen Sang Ning were not both nostalgic and had not wanted to move out after living at home for so long, based on its previous behavior in the school copy, the house would definitely have been eaten by Shen Sang Ning.
"Then how did you know I was here?"
"I just happened to run into your next-door neighbor, and she gave me the information."
