Chapter 254 Jiang Lili

The educated youth took Xia Zhizhi into the house and said, "Comrades, please sit down. I'll pour you some tea."

"My last name is Jiang, my name is Jiang Lili, and I'm from Fu City." Jiang Lili was in good condition. She opened the small jar and took out some tea leaves, then poured boiling water from the thermos and really made two cups of tea for them.

He pointed at the educated youth Tao who had followed him in and was standing aside rubbing his hands nervously and said, "His name is Tao Jinping, and he's from Yantai. If you want to ask him about local affairs, he knows a lot."

"Hello, Comrade Tao. I'm going to trouble you two for a while. I want to know about the work content of our educated youth going to the countryside, what difficulties will you encounter when participating in production, and how do you solve them?"

Xia Zhizhi took the cup, held it in her palm, and looked at the rolled tea leaves spreading out one by one. She asked casually, "This tea is pretty good. Is it green tea? What's its name?"

Jiang Lili laughed and said, "I didn't give it a special name. I picked wild tea leaves at home and rolled them myself."

“Nice craftsmanship!”

Xia Zhizhi returned to the topic and asked them a few serious questions, all about fishery production.

The time they spent in the countryside was not long, but not short either.

Although I don't have enough experience, I have seen so much that I can still say a lot.

Xia Zhizhi didn't ask for too long. After chatting for about 20 minutes, a little boy came over. He seemed to be familiar with them and stood at the door and peeked into the house.

Although his expression was calm, he was still young after all, and one could tell from his eyes that he was a little nervous.

Jiang Lili immediately walked over and asked, "What's wrong? Is your grandfather feeling unwell?"

"No."

Jiang Lili squeezed his hand.

The little boy paused, glanced at Xia Zhizhi and Ah Ju, and changed the topic: "I don't know what happened, but my grandpa suddenly felt uncomfortable in his chest, and the medicine at home didn't work. I don't know what to do."

Jiang Lili immediately said, "I'll go over and take a look."

Just as she took a step forward, she looked back at Xia Zhizhi and said apologetically, "Sorry, Comrade Xia, something happened here..."

All the questions that need to be asked have been asked. If you want to know more advanced knowledge about fishing, you should ask the experienced fishermen.

A normal person should leave tactfully.

Xia Zhizhi had no idea what was going on. She immediately stood up and walked over to Jiang Lili: "Let me go with you to take a look!"

Jiang Lili paused for a moment and said, "Erzhuzi's home is far away, at the foot of the mountain. It takes a lot of effort to walk there. It will delay your return to the city. His grandfather has this old problem. I will go and take a look."

Xia Zhizhi thought for a moment and said, "That's true. It's getting late."

Seeing that she no longer insisted, Jiang Lili breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing Xia Zhizhi and Ah Ju walking away, Jiang Lili finally felt relieved. She walked with Erzhu to a deserted place and asked him, "What's the matter?"

Erzhuzi said: "20, 2, 30"

Jiang Lili frowned and whispered, "This is too hasty."

She memorized it twice in her mind, then took out two yuan from her pocket and gave it to Erzhuzi.

Erzhuzi was about to leave after taking the money, but Jiang Lili stopped him and said, "Did those two people at the educated youth point see you today? Stay away from them and leave."

Seeing Erzhuzi leave, Jiang Lili returned to the educated youth site as if nothing had happened, had dinner with everyone, washed up, and then strolled at the village entrance to digest the food.

When I passed by the commune office, I stuffed a piece of red paper into the gap of the door frame. It had some messy lines and the numbers I just saw on it, like a child had scribbled something on it.

Erzhuzi's house was indeed in a remote location, and not only that, it was also very dilapidated. A little old man, with a hunched back and leaning on a wooden stick, was waiting for him in front of the shaky door. He was relieved when he saw him come back.

Erzhuzi first dug out a broken pottery jar from behind the house, put the two coins in it, and buried the pottery jar again. Then he went to help the old man: "Grandpa, let's eat."

The old man was extremely skinny, and his eyes were cloudy and pale. He touched Erzhuzi's head with his dry hands, and finally sighed. Then he took Erzhuzi's hand and walked into the house: "Eat."

The old man's name is Song Daoquan. He was originally a professor of mathematics and mechanics at Penglai University. During the "cleansing campaign" at the end of last year, his entire family was quarantined for investigation. When he came out, his son and daughter-in-law committed suicide, leaving only one grandson, Song Anguo.

The two were sent down to this brigade together. When they came here, Song Daoquan had his legs broken by students. Because he did not receive timely medical treatment, his health deteriorated day by day, and he was unable to get out of bed within a few days.

The two were penniless, and Erzhuzi was a ten-year-old boy whose family was suddenly destroyed and who was sent to a place where he was unfamiliar with. What could he do?

The old man and the child almost died.

It was a female educated youth named Jiang Lili who lent them a helping hand.

At that time, Song Daoquan was lying on the bed unconscious. Given their status, everyone was kind-hearted and did not secretly throw stones at them. How many people dared to approach them?

It was Jiang Lili who suggested this to the captain. Even though he was transferred down from the countryside, it was still a human life after all. It would not be appropriate for him to die here.

But Song Daoquan's condition was already very critical at the time, and sending him to the hospital would definitely cost a lot of money, and the captain was also in a difficult situation.

Jiang Lili couldn't bear it, and said, "After all, it's a living life. It's fine if I don't know, but now that I know, I'll feel guilty if I don't care. How about this, the team will hire a car to send him to the hospital, and I'll figure out a way to pay for it."

Anyone with a little common sense can know that those who were sent to the villages can't be bad. If they were really bad, they would have been eating peanuts long ago.

The captain didn't want to cause any loss of life, but fortunately there was a victim who paid the money, so he was responsible for finding a bullock cart to pull the car over.

Jiang Lili can be saved once, but after returning from the hospital, she will have to continue taking medicine. They both still have to live, and doesn’t that cost money?

Song Anguo could only secretly go to Jiang Lili's house to ask for help again.

He was a ten-year-old kid who didn't know how to do anything else. He knelt down in front of Jiang Lili and said, "Jiang Zhiqing, please be kind and save her. I don't have any other abilities. Just say one word and I'll do whatever you tell me to do."

At that time, Song Anguo didn't really think he could do anything to help Jiang Lili, he just came here to commit moral blackmail.

He also knew that the other person had helped him once, and it would be bad to ask the other person for help again. However, apart from Jiang Lili, he really didn't know who else to look for.

My only relative is lying in bed, suffering from recurrent illnesses. How many days can he endure this torture at his age?

Compared to death, morality is really not that important.

Jiang Lili didn't make things too difficult for him and bought some medicine for Song Daoquan.

She didn't have much for Song Anguo to do, just occasionally helping to pass a message or a note.
