After getting off the boat, I found that light truck was waiting by the side of the road.

The main cockpit can only seat three people.Therefore, Li Jieshi sat in the back compartment very sensiblely.

Considering that it will rain today, Li Jishi brought a tarpaulin and covered the mountain goods sacks in the half-carriage.

And he himself moved a small stool, wearing a raincoat, sitting in the innermost part of the carriage with his head bowed and smoking a cigarette.

Come to the city.

Xu Xiaolou and Lin Yue got off the car.

Li Jieshi sat back in the cockpit, said hello, and rushed towards Cheng Yude with the driver.

……

……

There are a lot of things today.

To buy appliances, but also to buy a boat.

Lin Yue insisted on splitting up, and wanted to finish all these things in one day.

Xu Xiaolou thought for a moment, thinking of the conversation with Su Qinghe this morning, and thinking that except for Wang Se of Tianyun City, he didn't seem to have offended any threatening enemies.

That Zhu Qiang?Already scared of being beaten, it doesn’t count.

And Wang Se of Tianyun City was also temporarily suppressed by Su Qinghe, and he probably won't make a move in the near future.

After thinking about this, he said with a light smile, "Okay, be careful on the road, and if you encounter any unexpected situation, call me as soon as possible."

Lin Yue smiled and said, "Don't worry, there will be no accidents."

……

After the two parted ways, Xu Xiaolou frowned, he felt as if he had forgotten something.

But when the slanting wind blows the drizzle, standing alone in the rain and thinking, it seems a bit different.

He shook his head and decided to get down to business first.

Come to Renjitang on Changning Street.

After thinking about it, he bought some apples and bananas at a nearby fruit shop. After entering the door, he grinned at the little proprietress who was sitting at the clinic desk as a greeting, and walked directly to the backyard.

When he came to the hut full of herbs, Xu Xiaolou put the fruit on the table and greeted Li Qingshan who was reading a book at the time: "Old Li, have you been feeling better recently?"

Recently, Li Qingshan's complexion is getting worse, and his health is getting worse day by day.

After getting along with each other for this period of time, Xu Xiaolou also knew what the old man's illness was.

Uremia.

This is a very hopeless condition, also known as kidney failure.

There are only two methods of treatment.

One is to perform hemodialysis, that is, to drain one's own blood out of the body through equipment, remove metabolic waste in the blood, perform purification, and then reinfuse the purified blood back into the body.

This method treats the symptoms but not the root cause, and the treatment effect varies from person to person. Some people can live for five to sixty years through dialysis.

And some people died after one or two years of dialysis.

The other is kidney transplantation, which is to transplant a healthy kidney into the patient's body through surgery.

Surgery is expensive, generally speaking, at least 40 or more.

And this therapy is generally applicable to end-stage renal failure.

Xu Xiaolou's "Medical Code" is very magical. It can help people heal wounds quickly, help people recuperate, and even use the internal power of the medical code to revitalize the body organs of patients when they have practiced to the third level.

But unfortunately, he only cultivated to the second level.

From the second to the third, there seems to be a big mountain in the middle. In the next ten years, or even decades, Xu Xiaolou will not be sure to step over this mountain.

He couldn't step over, so he couldn't help Li Qingshan.

Xu Xiaolou once suggested that the other party go for a kidney transplant.

But it was rejected by Li Qingshan.

Nowadays, there are serious illness subsidies in China, and the replacement of the kidney can cover the medical insurance, so the personal burden is not too heavy.

Li Qingshan waved his hand and said: "I know all these things, but have you ever thought that I am over 60 years old this year, is it worth mobilizing so many people? Besides, the country's kidney resources are limited, and kidney transplants The principle is to start with the young and then grow up, young people are given priority, at my age I go to register and wait in line for a kidney source, it is almost impossible to wait.”

Xu Xiaolou asked tentatively, "Can't you rely on relationships?"

He could vaguely feel that this old man should not be a simple folk old man.

Li Qingshan smiled and said a word, ending the topic.

"The most annoying thing in my life is to owe favors."

……

It's raining outside.

Li Qingshan coughed twice, and said with a smile: "You know I have this disease, and you still buy something sweet?"

Bananas and apples are fruits with high sugar content.

Xu Xiaolou was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "If you don't eat polite things, give it to your granddaughter."

Li Qingshan nodded, picked up his teacup, took a sip of the freshly brewed hot tea, and said, "Okay, I've received your wish. What can I do for you today?"

Xu Xiaolou is going to buy appliances, but he is not good at haggling when buying things, so...

Before he finished his intention, he saw Li Qingshan waved his hand with a smile, and said: "Okay, I understand. Renji Hall is closed today, let Yuewen accompany you to go shopping."

Xu Xiaolou suddenly scratched his head in embarrassment: "I always trouble you, I feel very embarrassed."

Li Qingshan put down his teacup, smiled and said: "There's nothing to be ashamed of, haven't you been wondering what the source of income for my Renjitang is?"

He stood up and waved to Xu Xiaolou, "Come with me."

……

The backyard was muddy.

Xu Xiaolou opened the umbrella, supported the old man, walked out of the corner hut, and came to the small living room in the middle hall.

It was his first time in the backyard living room.

Turn on the light and brighten up the living room.

On the wall opposite the entrance of the hall, there is a huge photo frame hanging.

In the photo, five young people stand side by side.

Taking a closer look at the faces of the five people, Xu Xiaolou found that the face of the one standing in the middle of the five people seemed to have been deliberately scratched with a razor blade, and the photo was blurred.

However, Xu Xiaolou's eyes stayed on this person the longest.

Because he felt that this person was very familiar.

Even though the photo was deliberately destroyed like this, the figure and demeanor made him feel a very familiar feeling.

The remaining four people did not bring him this feeling.

Among them, the person standing on the far left has a somewhat similar appearance to Li Qingshan beside him.

"This person is me."

Li Qingshan pointed to the person on the left, and said slowly: "Back then, among our five senior brothers, I was the youngest, the youngest, and the least skilled in learning, so I ended up being so mediocre today... But it's okay There is a sense of friendship in the teacher's school, and there are some good ones among them, who have been taking care of me all these years."

He pointed to the person standing on the far right, and said: "This is my second senior brother, named Xiao Yun. He is now the president of the Raozhou Traditional Chinese Medicine Association. It is precisely because of his existence that my Renji Tang’s herbal medicines are almost never unsalable. His peers in the circle will sell him some face, and come to me every now and then to dump the goods.”

Speaking of this, he sighed, "Oh, I don't like to owe favors the most in my life. But the debt I owe to Second Senior Brother has never been fully repaid in my whole life."

"A few years ago, he and I had a falling out because of one incident."

"But it's a falling out, how can the decades-long relationship be turned over just like that?"

"He is a man who is tough on the outside and soft on the inside. Since then, although he has spoken badly about me, he still cares for me deeply in his heart."

"For example, you sold that ginseng plant to him a few days ago."

"I'm sure, even if he really took away a lot of money at that time, after a while, there will be a sudden addition of several hundred thousand in my Renjitang's accounts..."

After Li Qingshan said these words, he sighed again: "This is the source of income for my Renjitang. Therefore, even if my store is closed for half a month, it will not affect the fundamentals."

"Because, Renjitang's income has never been dependent on those who come to see the doctor..."
