Chapter 206: Find a sack at night!
Are you sick too? Su Mei raised her eyebrows:
"What's that? Hereditary dog-eaten conscience syndrome?"
"No." Huo Jianjun stammered. He did not notice the mystery in Su Mei's words, but his face looked very ugly, which made Su Mei doubt whether he was telling the truth.
Could it be that he had some shameful disease? Su Mei was too lazy to investigate further. Huo Jianjun was unwilling, but she didn't care. It was not good to give blood transfusions to direct relatives.
However, Liu Cuiyun heard the hidden meaning in Su Mei's words and looked at Su Mei dimly: "Old Third, don't bully me because I am uneducated and illiterate and speak so harshly!"
"The truth is always unpleasant." Su Mei took over Liu Cuiyun's words, and then without giving Liu Cuiyun a chance, she looked at the people watching the excitement in the yard:
"My dear neighbors, as the saying goes, a distant relative is worse than a distant relative. Qiuqiu has encountered a fatal disaster. This little blood cannot hurt your bodies, but it can save Qiuqiu's life.
You see, my fifth brother is in good health. So, as long as someone tests and finds out that your blood type is suitable, I will give you ten dollars to buy your blood.
Even if it's inappropriate, can I give 50 cents as a thank you fee to everyone who participates in the blood test?"
When they heard that there was money to be made, those who were watching the excitement were eager to try it out.
Huo Jiandang was pushed forward by Cheng Erxi. He turned around and asked Cheng Erxi in confusion: "Didn't you say that blood transfusions are bad for the body and affect work?"
"It's only ten yuan! How much work do you have to do to get ten yuan? How can it harm your health? Look, Su Laowu is fine." Cheng Erxi said with a pout. She thought about it and joined the blood testing team.
Huo Jiandang was willing to donate blood in the first place, and now that he knew he could still make money, he didn't say anything.
In addition to the two people from the Huo family, several other people from the village came to donate blood.
The final result was that Huo Jiandang's blood type matched Qiuqiu's blood type with that of an older sister in the village.
Two people could take 80 blood, so Su Mei kept both of them.
After taking the blood, Cheng Erxi immediately came up to Su Mei and asked for money: "Where's the money? Ten yuan, give it to me quickly, this is the money my man earned from selling his blood... No, it's ten yuan and fifty cents.
You should know that the fees charged by the city hospitals are much higher than this. Since she is my niece, I don’t care about this.”
Su Mei really didn't know what the prices were in the city's hospitals, so she just quoted a price at random. Anyway, it wasn't her money to pay for it.
She pointed at Huo Jianjun and said:
"You can ask big brother for money. You saved big brother's daughter, not mine. There's no need for you to ask me for money."
Huo Jianjun, who was standing outside the door, was stunned: "How can I have so much money?"
The money that Huo Jianguo sent to Qiuqiu for her medical treatment and health was all sent to Qiuqiu directly under Li Shufen's name, so he had no chance to get his hands on it.
"Give me money, you must give me money. Brothers should settle accounts clearly. Huo Jianjun, don't try to shirk your debt!" Cheng Erxi saw that her efforts were in vain and she immediately refused. She glared at Su Mei fiercely, thinking that it was all Su Mei's fault that she said she would give me money, and she thought Su Mei would pay for it herself.
If she had known that she had to rely on poor guy Huo Jianjun for money, she would have said nothing to prevent Huo Jianjun's party from standing up.
Seeing Cheng Erxi urging him, Huo Jianjun had no choice but to go into the house and ask Li Shufen:
"Where's the money? Where's our family's money?"
Li Shufen was lying on the bed with her eyes closed without saying a word. Now she couldn't help feeling disgusted when she even looked at this man.
Seeing that Li Shufen didn't say anything, Huo Jianjun suddenly got angry:
"I asked you for money, and you became dumb?"
A cowardly man is submissive to others but aggressive towards others.
Su Mei asked Huo Jianjun for money just to cause trouble for him, but she didn't expect that this bastard was still causing trouble for Li Shufen at this time.
Helplessly, Su Mei took out thirty yuan and gave ten yuan to Cheng Erxi and another big sister who donated blood.
Su Mei gave the remaining money to Su Shengxue and asked him to distribute it to other people in the yard who participated in the blood test.
Su Shengxue looked at the money and gave Su Mei a blank look:
"I thought I had ten bucks too, but it turns out my blood was taken for nothing. This is my own sister, it's really heartbreaking."
"You will be disappointed more often in the future, so it's better for you to get used to it sooner!" Su Mei was helping Qiu Qiu to energize her blood circulation while naturally bickering with Su Shengxue.
Sometimes, the naturalness with which she gets along with Su Shengxue makes her feel that she is really Su Shengxue's sister.
As the blood was gradually transfused into Qiuqiu's body, Qiuqiu's pulse and breathing stabilized, and his face gradually regained color.
Su Mei stayed by the bed until Qiuqiu woke up with her eyes wide open in confusion.
"Aunt, why are you here? Qiuqiu is so cold. I saw myself soaking in the well and couldn't get up. Mother... Mother doesn't want me anymore!" After saying this, Qiuqiu glanced at Li Shufen cautiously. Obviously, the scene of Li Shufen holding her and jumping into the well left a huge shadow on her.
Li Shufen, who had been numb and expressionless, couldn't help crying until she heard Qiuqiu talking. She hugged Qiuqiu's hair and stroked it again and again, repeating "I'm sorry" over and over again.
Although Qiuqiu was scared, she still reached out her little hand and hugged Li Shufen back, and whispered to comfort her:
"Don't be afraid, mother. Qiuqiu will grow up soon. When she grows up, she will become a top female scholar and take me away from here!
Qiuqiu knows that my mother doesn't like this place!"
As soon as these words came out, Li Shufen burst into tears again.
Taking this opportunity, Su Mei advised: "Sister-in-law, you heard it, Qiuqiu wants to grow up, she wants to be the top female scholar.
She is full of curiosity about the outside world!
You keep insisting, do you really have the heart to let such an obedient and sensible Qiuqiu never see the sun again?"
Su Mei did want to help Li Shufen, but she didn't say it out loud.
Because she wasn't sure if she could think of a solution.
If you are not sure, you can't say it.
Sometimes having no hope is more terrible than having hope that is shattered.
Fortunately, Li Shufen saw Qiuqiu crying and began to retreat from death. She hugged Qiuqiu and comforted her:
"Okay, Qiuqiu, if you want to grow up, then grow up well. Mom will accompany Qiuqiu and will never do stupid things again, never again!"
"That's right. What's the point of you trying to commit suicide? You almost killed Qiuqiu. Let's live a good life and stop making trouble every now and then, okay? I'm really scared of you." It was a moment for people to relax, but Huo Jianjun jumped out again in disappointment.
Su Mei had never met someone as hateful as Huo Jianjun. She whispered in Su Shengxue's ear:
"Aren't you eager to hit someone? Go find a sack and come back to do it tonight!"
