  Chapter 13 Cobble together borrowed money

   "Second uncle, sit down and rest for a while! I'll pour you hot water!" Fortunately, Uncle Quanzi borrowed a large tea mug and a pot of hot water.

It takes thirty miles from the Fifth Brigade of Chaoyang Commune to Pingyang Town, and it takes more than three hours to walk alone. In this winter, I don’t wear enough clothes to keep warm, and I don’t have enough food. It’s a torment. people thing.

  Bai Xue followed the bullock cart all the way, and now the soles of her feet still hurt, and she swore she didn't want to walk again.

   "Okay!" Second Uncle Bai obeyed and sat on another hospital bed. He took the hot water that Bai Xue poured for him, held the quilt in his hands to keep warm, and looked at Bai Xue and whispered:

"Xiaoxue, isn't it enough? The second uncle made a lot of money and made up some more. Here it is! Here is five yuan!" He took out a large handful of ten-cent bills from the pocket of the cotton coat and handed it to Bai Xue, "Two The uncle’s house only had one yuan, and I went to your Uncle Quanzi’s house to borrow two yuan, and Xiao Chuan sent one yuan and eighty-five cents, saying that it was from your third aunt!"

   "The third aunt sent it? Does she still have such a conscience?" Bai Xue asked in disbelief.

"Xiaoxue, there are some things that my second uncle can't say anything about, but your third aunt is an elder after all, if you say something bad in public, it will affect your reputation! I am very important to a girl's reputation!" Bai Dajiang whispered .

"Second uncle, I'm about to starve to death. What's the use of fame? If they dare to steal our food in the future, they will definitely be rude to them! This time, the third uncle's beating of my father is not over yet. Wait until my mother is done." Yuezi will settle accounts with them again!" Bai Xue said viciously.

   "The most important thing is that your dad is fine!" Bai Dajiang drank up a cup of hot water to feel better.

"Second Uncle, return the money back to others! Return the ones that Third Aunt sent! How can this matter be settled with such a small amount of money! The medical expenses are already enough! You don't need to borrow from others anymore! Second Uncle, your ten I will pay back the money as soon as possible!"

   "Enough for the medicine? That's great! Don't worry about the ten yuan for the second uncle, the second uncle will change it for a centimeter! Then the second uncle will go back!"

   "Second Uncle, it's too dangerous for you to travel at night, stay here for one night! There are empty beds here! And I've already ordered food for you from the cafeteria, it will be ready in a while!" Bai Xue also stood up and stopped.

   "You child, what meal do you order for the second uncle? The second uncle can just go home and eat!"

   "Second Uncle, it's dangerous to drive at night, and it's so cold, it's better to drive when the sun is shining, it's safer and warmer! Okay, you can sit and rest! I'll go and see if the food is out!"

  Bai Xue said and pushed the man back to the bed, and ran out by herself, not giving Bai Dajiang a chance to refuse.

After dawdling for a while, I arrived at the cafeteria, and the food did come out. The meal was served in a lunch box, and it was served in a large bowl. Looking at the stewed cabbage and potatoes with no trace of oil, Bai Xue complained, "It's really stewed cabbage and potatoes, nothing else! "

   "This lunch box and bowl will have to be sent back later, and a ten-cent deposit will be charged! Send it back and pay you back!" The same young male waiter just now, still speaking in a tepid tone, stretched out his hand to Bai Xue.

   "Okay! Thank you!" Bai Xue took out a dollar and handed it to him, and got back ninety cents, stacked up three lunch boxes and took them away.

   It took two trips to bring all the food up.

   "Xiaoxue, wake up your dad to eat too!" Bai Dajiang stared at the sorghum rice.

  He couldn't remember how long it had been since he had eaten dry rice.

  Every meal full of water, I am afraid that I will not be able to survive the autumn harvest.

  In addition to the exploitation by his mother, the children are hungry every day.

   "Not long after my dad ate..."

   "Everyone is eating? How about the injured comrade?" Dr. Zhao walked in before Bai Xue finished speaking.

   "Doctor Zhao! My dad hasn't woken up after eating and sleeping!" Bai Xue hurriedly went up to answer.

   "How long have you slept?" Dr. Zhao walked over to check on Bai Daliang.

   "Almost two hours!" Bai Xue followed behind.

   "Wake him up and let him sit to see if he gets dizzy!"

  Bai Xue woke up Bai Daliang as promised.

   "Dad, the doctor asked you to sit up and have a look! Sit up slowly! I'll help you!" Slowly helped Bai Daliang, who was still in a daze, to sit up.

   "How is it? Are you dizzy? What's wrong?" Dr. Zhao raised Bai Daliang's eyelids to check and asked him.

   "I don't feel dizzy, but the wound hurts a little!" Bai Daliang answered Dr. Zhao honestly.

"Okay, it's not that serious. Take anti-inflammatory drugs and painkillers after dinner at night! Check it out tomorrow. If there's no problem, you can go home to recuperate!" Dr. Zhao glanced at the food and didn't say anything, and didn't mention the cost of the medicine. , asked some precautions and left.

   "Dad, you can sit up now. I just came back from cooking in the cafeteria. Let's eat while it's hot!" Bai Xue said while supporting Bai Daliang.

   "Dad is fine, I will go home tomorrow!" Bai Daliang was also very happy after hearing Dr. Zhao's words.

   The two brothers Bai Daliang wolfed down a meal, and Bai Xue couldn't swallow it.

  Bai Xue really can't eat this whole grain, and there is no oil or salt in the vegetables.

   "Dad, I'll go to the state-run restaurant and return the lunch box!" After finishing packing, Bai Xue returned the lunch box from the cafeteria and said to Bai Daliang, "You should be fine with Second Uncle taking care of you!"

   "Let your second uncle accompany you to pay back! Dad is fine here, you are a girl, how can you go out by yourself in the dark!" Bai Daliang immediately stopped when he heard that Bai Xue was going to the state-run hotel.

"It's okay Dad, the state-run hotel is not far from here, I can do it alone! You can't leave people by your side, what if you get dizzy and fall down? I'll be right back!" Bai Xue didn't wait for her father to stop her, and hurried Ran.

  Bai Dajiang chased after him slowly, but no one saw her.

  Bai Xue ran fast, and she slowed down after leaving the hospital for a while, fearing that her second uncle would chase her from behind.

  Although she had been to the State-run Hotel during the daytime, the road was slippery and snowy in the dark, so she walked cautiously.

  It was close to the state-run hotel, so she turned into an alley and went into the supermarket to recite fifty catties of yellow millet.

  This is the best point in this era. When it gets dark, there are almost no people on the roads. There are not many lights in every house. If you don’t sleep, you stay in the dark, either without kerosene lamps or kerosene-saving lamps.

  She approached the state-run restaurant with fifty catties of grain on her back and vaguely saw a person pacing back and forth, as if in a hurry. Bai Xue knew it must be Uncle Wang, so she whispered:

   "Uncle Wang..."

   "Hey!" Wang Cheng immediately looked over when he heard her voice, and seeing her struggling to carry the food, he ran over to catch it.

   "Uncle Wang, fifty catties of yellow millet is enough, please check, and I will return these three lunch boxes to you!"

   "Okay, good!" Wang Cheng didn't have time to pick up the lunch box, so he quickly opened it to look at the food, stretched his hand into the bag, and sighed at the golden yellow millet.

   "Girl, this food is really good, there is no problem with the food! Uncle will give you the money!" He said and took out seventy-five yuan from his pocket to give Bai Xue.

   "Girl, here is seventy-five yuan! You count!"

  Bai Xue took the money and roughly counted it. At this time, the largest ticket was ten yuan. Wang Cheng gave her seven ten yuan and one five yuan, all of which were quite new.

   "Uncle Wang, the money is fine! Then I'm leaving! Take the lunch box!" Bai Xue put the lunch box in Wang Cheng's hand and turned to leave.

   Don't take the risk, she sells food, and it's at the black market price, it will be troublesome if she is caught.
