Reborn In The '80s

"Who?" Xu Zhao asked.

"I, Cui Qingfeng." Cui Qingfeng's voice sounded outside the door.

"Ah, Qingfeng, what's the matter?"

"Your dad is in the hospital!"

Your dad is in the hospital?

your dad?

dad?

Is it Father Xu?

Xu Zhao reacted slowly, jumped off the bed, opened the wooden door of the hut, saw Cui Qingfeng standing at the door, hurriedly checked, and asked, "My dad is in the hospital?"

"Yeah." Cui Qingfeng nodded slightly panting.

Xu Zhao asked again, "How do you know?"

Cui Qingfeng replied: "I met your mother at the intersection, she told me."

"When did it happen?"

"15 minutes ago, I ran into your two older brothers on the road. I told them what happened. They are also going to the hospital now."

"Which hospital?" Xu Zhao asked anxiously.

"County Central Hospital."

"Okay, I'll go take a look now."

Walking into the hut again, Xu Zhao put on his clothes three times, quickly washed his face and brushed his teeth, pulled Xu Fan out of the bed, put on new clothes, put on small shoes, carried him out of the hut, locked the wooden door, and put him on the bicycle. On the front bumper, I rode a bicycle with Cui Qingfeng to the county seat and parted ways.

Cui Qingfeng went home to make popsicles.

Xu Zhao brought Xu Fan to the county central hospital, and just at the entrance of the hospital, he saw Xu Zuocheng and Xu Youcheng who came out in a hurry. The two of them looked very impatient, and stopped under the shade of the tree at the entrance of the hospital. They didn't seem to see Xu Zhao. Then they loudly discussed Xu's father's illness, which was a stroke.

stroke?

Xu Zhao was taken aback. Stroke is a disease that mostly occurs in the elderly. It can lead to death in the worst case, paralysis in the second case, and stiff limbs and language barriers in the lightest. But no matter what it is, Father Xu will never be able to do without it for the rest of his life. Medicine, which is a lot of income for any ordinary family, but the Xu family has a lot of labor, so they can actually afford it, but Xu Zuocheng and Xu Youcheng don't seem to think so.

"I don't raise him!" Xu Zuocheng said.

"Who will raise it?" Xu Youcheng asked.

"Whoever you love, it doesn't matter anyway."

"I don't care either."

Xu Zuocheng paused, and said: "Youcheng, our dad's stroke was caused by cutting wheat for Uncle Xu Zhao. Is it reasonable to ask Uncle Xu Zhao to be responsible? But Xu Zhao's mother was unwilling, and mentioned 60s that he saved our lives. If so, she just doesn’t want Uncle Xu Zhao to pay for the food, so why should we let the two of us raise it, our two families are almost out of food, and now your sister-in-law is pregnant again, anyway, I won’t raise it.”

Xu Youcheng then said, "I don't care either. That woman is Xu Zhao's mother, not the two of us. Our mother died long ago!"

Our mother is long dead—

Xu Zhao gasped, that's why!

It turns out that Xu Zhao, Xu Zuocheng, and Xu Youcheng are half-brothers. No wonder, no wonder the two brothers can't get used to Xu Zhao together. The poor Yuan Xu Zhao didn't know. Xu's parents and Xu's mother probably wanted Yuan Xu Zhao to be treated like a brother. Xu Zuocheng, Xu Youcheng, but Xu Zuocheng and Xu Youcheng didn't think so. They always regarded Xu Zhao as an outsider, treated Xu Zhao harshly, and even turned a blind eye to Xu's mother's kindness to them.

So Xu's father had a stroke this time, and the two quickly got rid of the matter.

After the discussion, Xu Zuocheng and Xu Youcheng still didn't notice Xu Zhao, but as if they made up their minds, they didn't go to the hospital anymore, turned around and left, just left.

"Xu Zhao." Someone called Xu Zhao at this moment.

Xu Zhao followed the sound and looked over, and saw a woman standing at the door, and he immediately recognized it as Xu's mother.

Xu's mother is a thin woman, neither tall nor short. Like most rural women, her skin is dark and her face has wrinkles that cannot be hidden. Even so, it can still be seen that Xu's mother was a big girl when she was young. Beauty, but now she looks haggard and sad.

"Grandma." Xu Fan shouted happily while sitting on the front bumper of the bicycle.

Xu's mother forced a smile on her face: "Third boy."

"grandmother!"

Xu Zhao carried Xu Fan off the bicycle.

Xu Fan immediately ran towards Mother Xu with short legs.

Xu's mother hugged Xu Fan, then took Xu Fan's little hand, looked at Xu Zhao and asked, "Your eldest brother and second brother are gone?"

Xu Zhao said, "Let's go."

Xu's mother looked sad.

Xu Zhao asked, "Mom, what's wrong with Dad?"

Xu's mother bowed her head and said, "Let's talk in the ward."

Xu Zhao parked his bicycle in the hospital, locked it with a chain lock, followed Xu's mother and Xu Fan to the ward, and saw Xu's father lying on the hospital bed at a glance. Xu's father was asleep, but his pursed mouth was crooked. His eyes were slanted. Xu's mother said that she was cutting wheat, and she fell to the ground suddenly. At that time, her mouth was crooked, her eyes were slanted, and she couldn't speak clearly. After sending it, the hospital said it was stroke.

"What else did the doctor say?" Xu Zhao asked.

Xu's mother paused for a moment and said, "Tell me, after your father wakes up, it is more likely that he will be paralyzed."

Xu Zhao was horrified, paralyzed, paralyzed—no wonder Xu Zuocheng and Xu Youcheng stayed away, unless a family like Cui Qingfeng had a financial backing like Cui Qingfeng's uncle, so Cui's father was sick in bed, and there was no pressure in life. But Cui's father is temporarily bedridden, and he can live a normal life after the operation is successful.

However, Xu's father is not, why Xu's father is paralyzed, that is, he will be paralyzed in bed for a lifetime, and no one in a normal family can bear it.

"Xu Zhao." Seeing that Xu Zhao didn't say a word, Xu's mother called out again: "Xu Zhao."

Xu Zhao looked at Xu's mother.

Mother Xu sat on the stool in front of the hospital bed, put her arms around Xu Fan who was standing beside her, pondered for a while, and said, "Do you feel that we are a burden like your elder brother and second brother, and plan to leave us here. "

"No, Mom—"

"Don't worry, I won't let you bear your father's burden." Mother Xu interrupted Xu Zhao. If there are family words, then she must not be able to bear it anymore. She said sadly: "I have saved some money in my own hand. It was originally used for your schooling, but you are not going to school. It is enough for your dad to be hospitalized for two days." , After leaving the hospital, I will take care of your dad whether he is lame or paralyzed. If he has money to buy medicine, he will not take it. Every day is a day, but, just, I can’t help you take care of the third child in the future. You have to work harder yourself."

Hearing these words, Xu Zhao felt uncomfortable, and shouted, "Mom—"

"Okay, stop talking, you go back first, there's nothing to do here, I'll just watch your dad."

"mom--"

"Go back and bring Sanwazi with you. I think he has prickly heat. Don't overheat him." Mother Xu touched Xu Fan's head and said, "Sanwazi, go and take your father home."

"Grandma, when are you going home?" Xu Fan asked with a small face.

Xu's mother forced a smile and said, "Grandma will be home in two days, and the third child will go home first."

"Then I'll wait for grandpa and grandma at home."

"Sanwazi is really good."

Only then did Xu Fan stretch out his small hand, took Xu Zhao's big hand, and said, "Father, let's go."

Xu Zhao's heart was in a mess, he followed Xu Fan out of the hospital, and instantly entered the scorching sun, feeling the heat from all directions.

"It's so hot." Xu Fan said.

Xu Zhao instantly thought of the prickly heat on Xu Fan's body, and immediately dragged Xu Fan to the shade of a tree, and then sat on a stone under the shade of the roadside, watching the pedestrians and bicycles coming and going, feeling a little dazed. In his previous life, he was a Orphans don't know or understand family ties, but just now he knew that Xu Zuocheng and Xu Youcheng had thrown Xu's father away like a burden.

What about him?

Is he going to throw away Xu's father and Xu's mother?

What should he do?

"Dad!" Xu Fan shouted.

Xu Zhao looked at Xu Fan and called out, "Xu Fan."

"Dad, what's the matter?"

Xu Zhao asked, "Do you like grandparents?"

Xu Fan replied: "I like it."

"Do you want to live with your grandparents all the time?"

"think."

"Want to eat a lot of meat, or want to be with grandparents?"

"With grandparents."

"why?"

"Because my grandparents don't eat meat, my grandparents gave me a lot of meat."

Because grandparents don't eat meat——

My grandparents gave me a lot of meat——

Even Xu Fan understands such a simple truth, but Xu Zuocheng and Xu Youcheng don't. Xu Zhao immediately made a decision. This decision will make his life more difficult, but it will make him feel very relaxed and warm. However, he doesn't care about these things. , let’s deal with Cui Qingfeng first.

He drove Xu Fan to Cui Qingfeng's house, helped Cui Qing finish making popsicles, and asked directly, "What happened?"

Cui Qingfeng was confused by the question, and asked back: "What?"

Xu Zhao asked, "Why did you meet my mother at the intersection of Nanwan Village this morning?"

"It's just a coincidence."

"I mean, what are you doing at the intersection of Nanwan Village?"

"I, I—" Cui Qingfeng's face was unnatural for a moment.

"You have something to hide from me?" Xu Zhao asked.

"No."

"to be frank."

Cui Qingfeng really convinced Xu Zhao, he could even see the clues, Cui Qingfeng no longer kept it a secret, and said embarrassingly: "The street office won't let us sell popsicles at the intersection, saying that the influence is not good, and if we sell it again, we will lose money." Fine."

When he got the news early in the morning, his first reaction was to tell Xu Zhao and discuss it with Xu Zhao, so he borrowed a bicycle and went to the intersection of Nanwan Village, just in time to meet Xu's mother. It will be annoying, so I decided to solve it by myself. Although there is no way, you can think about it slowly.

"Reported?" Xu Zhao asked with a frown.

"Well, some people envy us for making money."

"This is a routine operation. Don't worry. I'll deal with the intersection after I've dealt with my dad's matter. We can definitely continue selling popsicles at the intersection." Xu Zhao was trying to appease Cui Qingfeng. I have no idea.

"Okay, you are busy first, I am also involved in activities." In fact, Cui Qingfeng was not sure at all.

"it is good."

While talking, the popsicles were already made, Xu Zhao and Cui Qingfeng hurriedly packed them, and then sent [-] sticks to the steel factory. Cui Qingfeng borrowed a neighbor's bicycle to sell the popsicles.

Xu Zhao borrowed Cui Qingfeng's straw hat, put it on Xu Fan's head, and then rode a bicycle under the sun to return to Nanwan Village. Acting on his own decision, he dragged Xu Fan into Xu's house. For the first time, I walked straight into the tile-roofed hall of the Xu family, looked at a small clock in the center of the table, raised my voice without looking sideways, and said, "Xu Zuocheng, Xu Youcheng, come out!"
