Chapter 87
Lu Li and his wife learned afterwards that on New Year's Eve, Dad Liang drank a few glasses of wine, and then he was drunk and went to bed early. Unexpectedly, in the early morning of the first day of the Chinese New Year, the sound of firecrackers woke him up from his dream. As soon as the old man woke up, he felt uncomfortable. He didn't care at first, but just thought it was a person's instinctive reaction to be awakened in his sleep. Unexpectedly, when the sound of firecrackers subsided a little, he went to bed to rest again, but he couldn't sleep anymore, and his chest was getting more and more painful until it became difficult to breathe, and he realized that something was wrong.
Fortunately, the delivery was timely enough, and Dad Liang was in danger. Lu Li stood at the head of the bed, looked down at the medical record card inserted on the head of the bed, "Liang Jinxiu." This was the first time he knew the other party's name. "How is it?"
"I heard from the doctor that it's not very important anymore." Liang's mother whispered as much as possible, "Look, what's this called? For the New Year, you have to stay here for several days?"
"Auntie, don't talk like this. My uncle is sick. He wants his family to help him carefully. How sad is he hearing this when he hears it? It seems that this disease is something my uncle himself wants."
"I know, I was wrong. Wouldn't I pity my old man? Tell me, if it weren't for your little brothers and some of you, with Xiao Si and his sisters, wouldn't something big happen?"
"It's okay, we are from the neighbors on the street. If anyone has anything to do, it's up to you. Don't take this matter to heart. By the way, have you brought all the things that my uncle was hospitalized?"
"What are you going to take? The house is in chaos and I don't have enough time to take care of it."
"Then I'll go and get it."
"No, no, Xiaoxiao, this is enough to bother you."
"Don't worry. I'm young and physically capable. You are here to take care of my uncle. If you have any questions, call the nurse or doctor. I'll be back in a while." I explained a few words to Mrs. Liang, turned around and left the hospital building, and woke up a few sleeping guys in the corridor downstairs. "Let's go, go, go home."
Xu Yunjian wiped his mouth, wiped his saliva and opened his eyes, "Hmm? Xiaoxiao, is it over?"
"It's over, go home and go to sleep."
"How is it? Are people dead?"
Lu Li gave him a fierce look, "You can't say something nice, it's the New Year! By the way, today is the first day of the New Year, so it's auspicious to speak."
He woke up several companions one by one and arranged for them to go home. Lu Li also returned to the Liang family. The three sisters and Liang Xin were about to go out, but their father suddenly fell ill and the whole family was panicked. Lu Li and his men took off another bed board. The room was messy, but the cleaning work was going on in the middle of the night. Just after the cleaning was almost done, Lu Li arrived.
"Brother? My dad..." Liang Xin didn't finish a sentence, but saw the third sister rushing into his arms regardless of everything and crying bitterly.
"Uncle is fine." Lu Li felt a little embarrassed and nodded to the Liang siblings with a wry smile, "I'm here to help get the things my uncle used to hospital. You can prepare it for you and go over together later."
"What do you want?"
"Slippers, socks, underwear, combs, snow cream, toothbrushes, toothpaste, mouthwash cups, washbasins, towels, soaps, in short, these necessities for daily life. If you don't have it, hurry up and buy them. Are you rich? If you don't have it, I'll put it on first?"
"Yes, yes." Liang Yan immediately ordered his brother and sister, "Hurry. Go in and look for these things in Xiaoxiao to see if there are any at home. If not, go buy them quickly."
The three of them ran back to the yard without touching their feet. Luli patted her lover's shoulder and pushed her away a little, "Xiaowei, don't be afraid, I'm there in everything."
"Li, I'm scared to death! Who did our family provoke whom? My illness has not yet been cured, and something big happened to my father again?"
"Life is like this, how can it be smooth sailing? Don't worry, your illness is fine now, and my uncle has turned into danger. Besides, there are so many of us, taking turns to take care of the elderly... Don't worry, leave everything to me, don't be afraid."
"But, I'm really scared. What if my brother went tonight yesterday, or if you had already fallen asleep, then get up and put on clothes temporarily; or if Cao Xun and his brother were not at your place, and went back and found someone, what would you do?"
"You will think too much. Don't forget that you are a college student at home. Xiaoxin is still young and can handle such things independently. Your elder sister and the others have not read too many books, so it's even more impossible. So you just rely on you to support this family. Do you know?"
Liang Wei looked up at him pitifully like a little bird who had lost her support, "Then...what are you?"
"I will naturally help, but I am an outsider after all. I don't have much trouble interfering in many things."
Liang Wei gave him a charming look, "You... are you still treating yourself as an outsider now?"
"Of course, love is that kind of love, but we cannot ignore it. If there is a thousand people in the family, no matter how capable I can, I will never do anything that can interfere. Otherwise, you and your brother have nothing to say, what about others? Don't forget that you still have two sisters and two brother-in-law in the future."
"You think so thoughtful." Liang Wei couldn't help but sting him, "Do you want to have a good relationship with your future brother-in-law now?"
Lu Li's pair of black and white water-cut pupils stared wide and asked blankly: "Why are you talking like this? Who wants to be brother-in-law with them? Are you thinking pretty? "
If he didn't be brother-in-law with his two brother-in-law, he just didn't want Liang Wei to be his wife. The girl figured out these relationships and suddenly her eyes widened, "What did you say? It's up to you to say another one?"
Luli burst out laughing, "Oh, your sister and the others are out, let's go."
The group rushed to the hospital. Lu Li bought a basket of oranges in the food store downstairs of the hospital and followed him to the ward area. Liang Jinxiu had woken up, but her face was still ugly and scary. Liang Yan and the others were fine on the way. When they saw their father, the girl's eyes were shallow and she didn't say a word. Big tears fell on her cheeks.
Liang Xin also had red eyes, and leaned closer and looked carefully, "Dad, are you okay?"
"It's okay. Your mother asked the doctor just now, and people said, I'm having a myocardial infarction. Alas, it almost passed."
"Dad, don't talk nonsense, how old are you?"
Liang Jinxiu barely grinned. "Oh, Xiaoxiao is here too? I heard Xiaoxin's mother say about yesterday, thanks to you."
"I didn't say anything, uncle, how do you feel?"
"I'm still feeling blocked in my chest. But it's much better."
"You have to pay attention in the future. Uncle, you should quit smoking. It is not a good thing. It will be harmful to the body but will not benefit you."
"I know, I know, if I can get through this time, I will quit it completely." Liang Jinxiu nodded on the pillow, "Girl, and your sister. You all go out, I will say a few words to Xiao Lu."
Liang Yan and a few obediently left the ward. Liang Jinxiu waved to Lu Li and called him in front of him, "Sit down, I'll ask you something."
Luli didn't know what was going on, so he sat in front of the bed in a proper manner. Unexpectedly, the old man suddenly reached out and grabbed his wrist. "Little Lu, I'll ask you something. Tell me honestly."
“Uh…yes.”
"The last time our girl went to Yangcheng, was she with you?"
Luli hesitated for a moment and finally nodded, "Yes."
"Damn it!" The old man shook his hand away, lay flat on the bed, and gasped. After a while, he asked again: "Then..."
"No, I promise, absolutely not! I can swear to the heavens."
"You, your child, should I say something? Your aunt told me that if it weren't for your little brothers, I would have given my life."
"Uncle, don't say that. Even if you don't have such a relationship with Liang Wei and Xiao Xin, don't you just ignore it? Besides, uncle, I told you a few days ago that I really have this from the bottom of my heart to Xiao Wei... Love, I really want to marry her after she graduates. As for going to Yangcheng, I did something wrong. But I promise you that I have never done anything to rude."
"...Xiao Lu,... Forget it, I promised you two last time, so I won't regret it. You... treat her well."
"Don't worry, I will definitely do it." After saying this, seeing that the other party was unintentionally talking to him, Lu Li quietly stood up and walked out of the ward.
In the corridor outside the ward, I talked to the Liang family for a few perfunctory words, turned around and went home, and as soon as I entered the door, I saw Cao Xun walking out of the house, "Hey, haven't you come home to sleep for a while?"
"I just woke up and remembered that my aunt didn't know the news, so I came over to tell her." Cao Xun laughed and said in a low voice: "Your aunt is so funny. At first, she said she was taking someone to the hospital, but she was a little unhappy. She said why she ran to the hospital during the Chinese New Year? It's not our own business. Later, I heard that it was Liang Wei's father, so the old lady stopped talking immediately. Do you think it's fun?"
Luli pursed her lips and laughed, "Go home and rest. I will go to greet my uncle and aunt again in the afternoon."
"Don't go today, my parents will go out in a while - they will go to the in-laws."
"You...ah, your elder brother, right?"
"Yes, I have to go to my future sister-in-law's house later to discuss the wedding. After the New Year, I will organize the wedding for my brother and his wife."
"This is a good thing, and then our buddies are lively."
Cao Xun smiled so hard that he couldn't see his eyes, and kept nodding, "I didn't say anything, I'll leave first."
After seeing Cao Xun off, he turned around and entered the house. Yu Fang was about to fry the dumplings cooked yesterday and eat them. Lu Li was really hungry. He couldn't eat the mutton hotpot yesterday. He worked hard for another morning, and his stomach was ginger, "Oh, aunt, do you still feel sorry for me, you know I'm hungry? Hurry up."
"How is Xiaowei's father?"
"There is no big problem, it's just that you have to take good care of it. Heart disease is no better than anything else," Luli kicked the door and kicked the door and chatted with his aunt, "By the way, aunt, don't smoke your cigarettes, it's not good for your health."
Yu Fangli ignored it and took out a cigarette to light one, "How many years have I smoked it? How could I quit so easily?"
"That's better. I'll find a way to get some good cigarettes for you. You can smoke less, can you?"
"What a cigarette?"
"It's the Chinese and other things I brought back to Yangcheng, with filters. You will smoke this in the future. My real aunt, I can make some money now. You can draw some good things, and you can draw less, okay?"
Yu Fang burst out laughing, took a few deep breaths, and spit out a smoke, "Come on, let's talk about it after you buy it."
He brought the dumplings with oil flowers to the table and poured a little Laba vinegar into the bowl. Luli picked up the chopsticks and before he could take a bite, he suddenly remembered something, "Oh no, aunt, I won't eat it."
"You can make it all, why don't you eat it?"
"I'm sorry, aunt, I forgot. I promised my friend a few days ago that I went to their house for dinner on the morning of the first day of the New Year. It was already late, so I have to leave quickly."
Yu Fang muttered in anger and distressed manner: "You are busy with your little things every day. What an amazing friend, you don't even have to eat?"
Lu Li smiled apologetically, put the bowl in front of his aunt, picked up his leather jacket and put it on, and ran out all the way. He rode his bike to Zhu's house by the Haihe River, knocked in the door, and immediately laughed, "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry! Oh, Brother Ying!"
Zhu Jiahua's cousins stood up with a smile, and Zhu Guoying said, "Okay, I'll pick you up several times when you came to Yangcheng. If you come to Tianjin once, you won't show up? Tell me, how do you have to punish you?"
"No matter how you punish me, I have to explain it, right? Isn't our policy just to be honest and stricter, and to resist more strictly? I'm confessing now that the two brothers are proud of themselves, so let me spare me once."
The two brothers laughed at his nonsense, "Okay, as long as you say it's reasonable."
Lu Li comes here often, so you don’t have to be polite to them. Guan Zi pulled a seat and sat down and said what happened, “Isn’t that? My aunt just fried three-fresh dumplings, so she came here without even having a bite. Is it great? Brother Ying, when will I get off the train?”
"Yesterday afternoon, I wanted my sixth brother to take you to see you, but then I said you came this morning, so I didn't go." Zhu Guoying said, "Hey, you haven't had lunch yet, let's go together at noon?"
Luli said: "Brother Ying, do you have any foods that are not allowed to eat? For example, mutton, spicy food, etc."
"No, what's wrong?"
"What a brother today, please invite you, let's go to my place and invite you to skewers, how about it?"
Zhu Jiahua swallowed indifferently, and a 'sweet' sound was heard, "Xiaojiu, you really have to try it. Xiaoxiao made a new thing called mutton skewers, which is very delicious. With salt, pepper noodles, and what is the name..."
"cumin."
