Doctor Zheng shook his head: "It's not optimistic. Mr. Bai's body has been damaged too much. He had a stroke a few days ago, and his mind has not been clear for a while."
"Stroke? Was he hospitalized?"
There were shadows outside the window, and Dr. Zheng could only evade the question by saying, "There is no medicine, and there is no need to be hospitalized."
Principal Jiahua thought for a moment and took out the paper and pen he carried with him.
"Doctor Zheng, what medicine do you need? Just tell me and I'll find a way."
.
When Xiao Jiahua left, the village chief Zhao Fuda had just come out of the compound.
Although many villages were organized into brigades under the people's commune, Qinghe Village had accumulated traditions, and everyone was still accustomed to addressing him as the village chief.
The old village chief waved his hand carelessly: "Xiaoxiao, it's a coincidence, come here."
He took out two envelopes. "This is the allowance sent by Comrade Bai Keyan, and your father-in-law's labor wages. They were just received this month."
All laborers have work points and wages, but Mr. Bai has poor physical strength and earns little, so his family has to collect the money.
As for Bai Keyan, after he got married, he would send his military allowance back home every month and also send it to the school's family.
He is the husband, so there is nothing wrong with him doing this, but... "Why have I never seen an allowance before?"
Village Chief Zhao explained: "Your sister-in-law said that as a young wife, you don't have so much money. She will save it for you first, and when Comrade Bai comes back, she will hold a wedding banquet for you and buy furniture for you."
Xiao Jiahua was shocked: "So, the allowance for the past few months was taken away by my sister-in-law?"
This Zhang Hongna is really a heartless person.
Village Chief Zhao: "Well, Lao Shuan and Lifen have no objection... What, is there a problem?"
Xiao Jiahua: "Well, my family is doing this for my own good."
Xiao Jiahua smiled sincerely, "But Uncle Zhao, you also know that I didn't build a new house after I got married. I still live in my second brother's house. Dabao should go to school, and there are many places to make money. From now on, you should just give me the money my husband and father-in-law earn."
Xiao Jiahua emphasized that it was her own husband and father-in-law.
Being able to sit in the position of village chief, Zhao Fuda is also a white man.
Xiao Jiahua's marriage was hasty. Bai Keyan was a handsome man and a glorious PLA soldier. Apart from his academic performance, he was no worse than his own son. Zhao Fuda was also happy to see him.
Thinking of his youngest son, who had hinted to him several times to give more work points to the school family, Zhao Fuda made a decisive decision: "Xiaoxiao, you can come to the compound to collect the money in the future."
"Uncle Zhao, thank you!"
.
When we got back, it was completely dark.
The country road is very quiet and the chirping of crickets is particularly clear. Passing by a few farmers' houses, you can even hear some cursing and chatting.
It was an unprecedented experience, reminiscent of Su Shi's night tour of Chengtian Temple, with the night, the moon, and the bamboo and cypress trees. It was a pity that she, such an idle person, had a lot on her mind.
At the corner, the shadow of the tree suddenly shook.
"Who?" Xiao Jiahua shouted in a low voice.
At this time, are there still wild boars and weasels in the village?
"Mom, it's me!"
Under the moonlight, the "wild monkey's" eyes are brighter than the stars.
Xiao Jiahua: "...Xiao Dabao, do you want to scare me to death?"
"Mom, I'm worried that you're afraid of the dark, so I'm here to take you home."
Xiao Dabao felt a little guilty, afraid that the one in the dark was him. He couldn't sleep but was reluctant to light a candle, so he just came out and waited.
"Thank you. I'm not afraid of the dark, I'm only afraid of ghosts."
Xiao Jiahua asked again: "Where is Xiao Shitou?"
"My brother is asleep. If he cries, I can listen."
Xiao Jiahua ignored him and continued walking forward.
Xiao Dabao yawned, hurriedly followed her, and took over her empty bowl, "Mom, I'll get it for you."
"You're quite a gentleman, little brat."
"Mother, what is a gentleman?"
"A gentleman is a man who abides by male ethics and loves and respects women."
"Well, don't worry, Mom. If someone bullies you in the future, I will protect you."
"No, I can fight back myself."
"ah……?"
Xiao Dabao shrank his neck.
·
The two children were sleeping soundly in the outer room. Xiao Jiahua lit a candle and opened the envelope.
Bai Zhongshi’s salary was only a few meager bills, adding up to no more than ten yuan, and every penny was hard-earned.
In comparison, the allowance sent by Bai Keyan was much more generous. Xiao Jiahua made a rough count and found that there were actually less than a dozen of them, along with a lot of food coupons, meat coupons, etc.
This young son-in-law is quite rich.
When my second elder brother came to school, he had been a soldier for sixty or seventy years, and his monthly allowance was less than sixty yuan. Bai Keyan has only been in the army for three months. How could a new recruit like him receive such good treatment?
The envelope came from a base of the Construction Corps, not far away. It is certain that Bai Keyan works outside, and his connections and resources are at least better than those of a little country girl like her.
According to the address, she picked up a pen and wrote a letter to Bai Keyan, and kept the piece of paper with the names of the medicines written on it.
Xiao Jiahua kept thinking in his dreams that he must send the letter as soon as possible.
At dawn the next day, Xiao Jiahua was awakened by a series of hurried knocks on the door.
Grumpy as she woke up, she opened the window with a headache.
In the yard, Xiao Dabao and Xiao Shitou pressed tightly behind the door bolt, very afraid that someone outside would come in.
"Xiao Jiahua, you traitor, open the door and hand over the money!"
A shrill female voice penetrated the gate.
As expected, she is my sister-in-law. She came earlier than expected.
