Siheyuan: I can always stay out of it

After thinking for a moment, Chen Xu gave up the idea of ​​going to the steel mill. As the friend was his only friend in the courtyard, it was only right for him to visit him.

But it didn't seem appropriate to go there empty-handed, and buying Xu Damao's favorite roast duck didn't seem appropriate to visit a patient. He had only seen fruit a few times. In this era, people usually brought cakes when visiting patients, but he didn't have a ticket.

After thinking it over, Chen Xu decisively stewed a piece of venison in the space and filled a lunch box.

It is said that venison is very nutritious for men, but no one knows how it works. Chen Xu feels that as long as his intention is there, it's enough.

hospital.

Still in the same ward.

Mr. and Mrs. Xu were blaming each other. Chen Xu was standing at the door with his lunch box, feeling a little embarrassed, not knowing whether he should go in.

Xu's father, who was sitting opposite Xu Damao's bed, saw Chen Xu and quickly stopped the confrontation with his daughter-in-law.

"It's Xiao Chen, come in quickly."

Chen Xu nodded, said hello and walked in.

Only then did he see Xu Damao's current appearance.

Xu Damao, who was lying there motionless, looked a little desolate. His face was a little pale and there were two obvious dark circles under his eyes. He stared at the ceiling with lifeless eyes, completely ignoring his parents beside him.

When Chen Xu came in, Xu Damao reluctantly turned his head to look at him, and tears suddenly fell.

"Forehead..."

Chen Xu didn't know how to comfort this guy for a moment. To be honest, he also felt that Xu Damao was a bit unlucky.

Place the lunch box on the bedside table.

"Da Mao, how do you feel now?"

Xu Damao obviously didn't care about this.

"Has the news spread?"

"this..."

Chen Xu didn't know how to answer for a moment. If he told Xu Damao the version he heard, he might even want to jump off the building.

"It has spread. Everyone is worried about you."

Chen Xu could only say nice things. He didn't dare to provoke Xu Damao at this moment, for fear of sending this guy away.

Xu Damao obviously knew that Chen Xu was comforting him. Chen Xu knew those guys in the courtyard very well, and Xu Damao, a native of the area, could not possibly be unaware of those guys' personalities. It was impossible for him to worry about such a thing. It was more like watching a joke.

So, Xu Damao's silent sobbing turned into crying.

Chen Xu was at a loss as he was not good at comforting people...

Mr. and Mrs. Xu standing by were also helpless. Who would have known that taking a folk remedy would lead to such a situation?

"Xiao Chen, you go back first. We will just watch Damao."

Chen Xu nodded. Facing a man crying his heart out, he really had no idea what to do.

"Da Mao, you should take good care of yourself. I will go back to work first."

Even after Chen Xu left the hospital, he could still hear Xu Damao's crying, which shows how desperate the kid was at that moment.

After he left.

Mother Xu felt that she needed to comfort her son, so she picked up the lunch box that Chen Xu had brought from the bedside.

"Don't mention it, this kid from the Chen family is quite willing to spend money."

The filling of meat made Xu's mother very satisfied, and the green peppers mixed in and the chopped green onions dotted on top made the dish even more appealing.

"Da Mao, do you want to eat something? It looks delicious."

Xu Damao also smelled the aroma of meat. He had his stomach washed directly when he was brought here last night, causing his chest to stick to his back. Facing the lunch box of meat and the aroma, he suddenly felt a little hungry.

Seeing that their son seemed to want to eat, Xu's father and mother were relieved. If he could eat, it meant that nothing serious happened.

Xu's mother picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks and was about to put it into Xu Damao's mouth.

A nurse came in from outside to change Xu Damao's IV drip. She looked at the meat in the lunch box and recognized it at a glance.

"Wait, this is venison, right? Patients can't eat this."

Xu Damao had opened his mouth wide waiting for his mother to feed him meat, but the meat that was about to reach his mouth was taken back by his mother. He immediately felt bored and tears began to flow again.

Mother Xu looked at the nurse in confusion, then looked at the meat in the lunch box.

"Well, my son can't eat meat now?"

The nurse was speechless.

"You haven't forgotten why the patient came to the hospital, have you? Other meats are fine, but not venison. Venison has a higher nutritional value. However, people who are allergic to venison, those with poor gastrointestinal function, those with excessive yang and internal heat, those with kidney disease, and pregnant and lactating women cannot eat it."

"Forehead..."

Obviously, neither Mr. Xu nor Ms. Xu knew about this. Now, looking at the lunch box in their hands, they felt a little overwhelmed.

The nurse changed the IV bottle and left, and reminded the two again.

Mother Xu looked at her son speechlessly as he started crying again, and couldn't help but complain.

"I don't know what Chen Xu was thinking. He actually sent venison over here."

Father Xu looked at her speechlessly.

"How does Xiao Chen know about Damao's situation? Venison is hard to get right now. People have already prepared something for it. Don't make trouble here. Go get some other food."

"Oh..."

Xu's mother stood up helplessly and went out.

Father Xu didn't think that Chen Xu did it on purpose. Chen Xu didn't know the specific situation of Xu Damao, and they themselves didn't know that they couldn't eat venison, so how could Chen Xu know that?

Chen Xu really didn't know. He only remembered that venison was very nutritious, but he wasn't sure in what specific way. In his previous life, there were many people who specialized in drinking deer blood, but most people really didn't know what the benefits were.

At this moment, he has begun to consider whether to go to the countryside.

There are very few buyers staying in the factory, and most of them are nowhere to be seen, and he is no exception.

Thinking of the touch on his hand, Chen Xu couldn't help it.

Go straight back to the steel mill, take your equipment and head to the countryside.

If you have a wife and don't hug her while you're alone, then you must be out of your mind.

Chen Xu convinced himself easily.

Chen Dan, who was catching some river fish with a net bag at the small river at the entrance of the village, watched his cousin returning in a hurry.

"Brother, you are back."

"Well, let's go to Linjia Village to see if there is anything we can buy..."

Chen Xu didn't even stop his car and just flashed by.

Chen Dan muttered as he looked at his cousin's back.

"You're lying. The news has spread. It's said that someone and the mountain king have become a couple. They must be my cousin..."

He did not forget that he had met Lin Chan at Chen Xu's house.

Any purchasing is just an excuse. My cousin must have gone to Linjia Village to see the cicadas.

Although he is young, he is not completely ignorant of matters between men and women. There is no purchasing agent who always goes to a village, and he only comes once every month or so.

People like my cousin almost want to live in Linjia Village.

Thinking that Lin Chan might become his sister-in-law, although he felt that his cousin might be unlucky in the future, he was still quite happy in his heart. With Lin Chan protecting him, no one in the commune would dare to bully him.

Be careful or he will ask his sister-in-law to throw you to the moon.

Chen Xu, who was busy dragging the bamboo raft into the river as soon as he got home, obviously had no idea what his cousin was thinking.

At this moment, he was eager to go home, so how could he guess what a young boy was thinking?

Instead of wasting time, it would be better to rush to Linjia Village and reunite with his wife.
