When a ruffian meets a veteran

The operation fee of around 30 yuan is really not a big sum of money in Ling Jianuo's mind.After all, when he helped Tang Wenjie do business in the past, he didn't need bank transfers for millions of dollars, and he did cash transactions without serial numbers.But now, without Tang Wenjie, without Wang Can, without the piles of money and two piles of money that were thrown casually, he realized that 30 yuan was really a lot to him.

So many that without Tang Wenjie and Wang Can, he had to rely on his own pair of magic hands to make money.

During the three days in City C, Ling Jianuo slept in the hotel during the day and left on time at nine o'clock in the evening. All the bars in C city, big and small, as long as they weren't the ones he used to frequent, he patronized them one by one.

In the bar, the wealthy owners are all in the boxes, and most of the outside guests only have hundreds or thousands of dollars, and some wallets are so clean that they have nothing but credit cards and ID cards.But Ling Jianuo didn't dare to enter the box, as long as he entered the box, he believed that within two hours, no matter where he hid in, he would be dug out.

The underworld in city c has its unique rules of survival and a powerful news network. As long as a bar finds out that it has been scammed by pickpockets, all the personal records of everyone who went to the bar that day will be found out within three days.Therefore, even if sometimes nine times out of ten and come back empty-handed, he would not dare to take the risk and sneak into the box to play against those rich people.

Only once, while going to the toilet, happened to see a drunk man in the toilet cubicle.There is no reason not to eat the food delivered to your door.Ling Jianuo took more than 1 cash from him without hesitation.

Three days passed in a flash, Ling Jianuo went to no less than 26 bars and got a total of [-] yuan.

Although the doctor said that the operation fee was about 30 yuan, Ling Jianuo planned to prepare 40 yuan as a guarantee.One is because the operation fee may not be low, and the other is the cost of hospitalization and medication.

In the past two days, he has devoted himself to learning about leukemia on the Internet.If Zhang Xiaodong undergoes surgery to transplant hematopoietic stem cells, he must be observed in a special sterile ward for a period of time.This period is also the most dangerous time for Zhang Xiaodong.Moreover, for a long time thereafter, he had to insist on taking anti-rejection drugs.These medicines are all expensive.

Although he was in a hurry, Ling Jianuo still didn't dare to go to the biggest bars in City C rashly.There are too many people who know him in those places.Moreover, he also believed that if he dared to appear in those places, then Uncle De would definitely get the news of others in city c as soon as possible.

Although he was not afraid of being troubled, Zhang Xiaodong's situation did not allow him to be delayed.

Today was the day Ling Jianuo told Xu Yi to go back for the last time.The money in his hand is worth 31.Ling Jianuo wanted to go to the casino before leaving.Compared with the rich, the people in the casino are undoubtedly the richest.Similarly, it is not easy to succeed in it.Ling Jianuo could trust his own speed, he thought, just do this once, as soon as he got the money, he would drive away immediately.

At 08:30 in the evening, the glazed lamps had already lit the entire Jinjin Grotto, Ling Jianuo parked the car in the underground parking lot of the casino, and took the elevator directly to the third floor.When entering the door, he used the ID card that Tang Wenjie threw to him before.The doorman just looked at Ka and let him in.

Ling Jianuo changed 40 chips and played at several tables. After more than [-] minutes, he left with a bad face after losing all his money.After the doorman waited for him to leave, he cursed contemptuously, "Poor boy, how dare you come to play without money!"

All the way into the elevator smoothly, Ling Jianuo realized that his palms were sweating a lot.Although he has never done this kind of money directly, he has done many similar things.Sometimes Tang Wenjie wanted something from a certain person, and he would ask him to take it for fun.

But I don't know if it's because he hasn't done it for a long time, or because he has lived in the hotel for a long time, and the comfortable and carefree life has made him slack and wasteful both mentally and physically.Magic hands are not as flexible as they used to be.

Anyway, the money was finally in hand.

Ling Jianuo touched the stacks of money stuck to his waist, and silently estimated in his heart that it should be enough for 40.This is the time he has shot the most often and gained the least since he learned the magic hand, but he feels relaxed and joyful for no reason.Zhang Xiaodong's surgery fee has been settled.He didn't have to worry about Mi Yanchen's sad face when he saw the mess when he came back.

Mi Yanchen has been taking care of him and the children all along.He can be regarded as helping to share a little now, right?Especially when Mi Yanchen, who is so important, is not around.

Zhang Xiaodong was ill, Ling Jianuo knew that he shouldn't be so heartless and happy for himself, as long as Zhang Xiaodong didn't recover for a day, he shouldn't be so happy, but he couldn't help it.As long as he thinks that he can stand side by side with Mi Yanchen and work together for the happy life of everyone in the small hotel, he will be happy.

He was happy and wanted Mi Yanchen to see what he did.It's not for the sake of showing merit, but I just want Mi Yanchen to affirm him now as a lover.He needs Mi Yanchen to affirm him, to affirm that he is a qualified lover, and to affirm that he can spend the rest of his life with him.

There were almost no people on the expressway who were driving overnight and kept overtaking. Ling Jianuo's depression that had accumulated for several days was gone.He guessed that Mi Yanchen would be depressed when he saw countless speeding tickets when he came back, but so what?

Mi Yanchen has always doted on him.

The word pet made Ling Jianuo feel warm in his heart.He glanced at his smiling eyes and reddish ear tips in the mirror, his face was almost burning.

Xu Yi ran to the cafeteria to get Feng Xiuxiu's breakfast early in the morning, and when he went upstairs with the buns, he happened to see Ling Jianuo returning in a hurry.His eyes lit up, and he quickly ran over, "Brother Jianuo."

Ling Jianuo gave him a hug, saw that there were only a few steamed buns in the bag in his hand, and asked, "Why did you just buy this, is it enough?"

"I brought this for Aunt Xiu. I ate it in the cafeteria." Xu Yi's eyes had turned red these past few days. Seeing Zhang Xiaodong lying sickly on the bed, throwing up whatever he ate, he felt distressed and frightened.Although Ling Jianuo promised to come back in three days, yesterday was already the third day, Ling Jianuo didn't come back on time, he didn't fall asleep all night, "Brother Jianuo, you haven't eaten yet, you take this with you Go up, I'll get it for you in the cafeteria."

"En." Ling Jianuo was indeed hungry, took the bag and went upstairs first.

Feng Xiuxiu washed Zhang Xiaodong's face, and saw him coming in when she turned around.The person she didn't like all the time, but now she felt wronged and wanted to cry.

"Brother Jianuo!" Zhang Xiaodong called out happily, and then asked him pitifully, "Where have you been? I haven't seen you for a few days."

"Xu Yi asked me to bring it to you." Ling Jianuo handed the bun to Feng Xiuxiu, seeing her haggard face, couldn't help but said, "Eat more in the future, and you will have the strength to face it when you are full."

Feng Xiuxiu's lips moved, but in the end she just took the bun and ate it silently.

Zhang Xiaodong's eyeballs flicked back and forth between the two, why did he fall, the confrontation between his mother and brother Jianuo seemed to have eased a lot.Ling Jianuo sat by the bed and flicked his forehead, "How do you feel? Will you still pretend to be aggressive in the future? You dare to jump on the table at home without practicing your skills."

"Hey..." Zhang Xiaodong touched his head, his smiling face immediately froze, and with a mournful face, he grabbed Ling Jianuo's clothes and accused his mother of shaving his head. "It wasn't a big deal in the first place, but I was insisted on being hospitalized, and now they shaved my hair, saying that it was troublesome to wash my hair. Do you think she is such a mother?"

Zhang Xiaodong thought of his black and flowing short hair, and thought it was inhumane for Feng Xiuxiu to shave his head, "Brother Jianuo, you said how handsome I used to be, but now I am a monk." If Yang Ziyun saw this, he would definitely not want to be with him Fall in love.

Ling Jianuo glanced at Feng Xiuxiu.Feng Xiuxiu shook her head at him, she didn't dare to tell Zhang Xiaodong the truth, she was afraid that Zhang Xiaodong's condition would deteriorate faster if he knew about it.

"The monk is also the most handsome monk, he can take a photo of the youngest kung fu boy in Shaolin Temple." Ling Jianuo teased him for a while, and waited for Xu Yi to bring eight steamed buns and a cup of eight-treasure porridge to the table, and he ate them voraciously. So, I found an excuse to go out with Feng Xiuxiu.

The two walked to the end of the aisle, and there was no one here.Feng Xiuxiu hesitated for a while and said, "Dr. Cao said that the operation should be arranged as soon as possible. In the past two days, blood tests showed that Xiaodong's condition has been deteriorating."

"There are 41 yuan in it." Ling Jianuo put all the money he brought into a card, handed it over and said, "This much should be enough for Xiaodong's surgery."

Feng Xiuxiu took the card, her eyes were red, she lowered her head and said in a nasal voice, "Thank you."

Ling Jianuo asked: "How about the bone marrow matching?"

Feng Xiuxiu was dejected, "My brother, nephew, and niece are all not good. The hospital said that they can only try to search across the country to see if there is anyone who is worthy and willing to donate."

Ling Jianuo couldn't help but took out his cigarette.Feng Xiuxiu saw that he smoked several cigarettes without speaking, so she turned around and went back.After she left, Ling Jianuo just squeezed out the cigarette butt, and hit the wall with his fist as if venting.

"Brother Jianuo." Xu Yi came out from the corner.

"Why are you here?" Ling Jianuo rubbed his face twice, and stretched out his hand to beckon him over, "Your eyes are bloodshot, you haven't slept well these days."

"I'm fine." You and Aunt Xiu's eyes were even more bloodshot.Xu Yi lowered his head and said in a low voice, "It would be great if my uncle was at home, but he can't even get through the phone. Brother Jianuo, what do you think my uncle is doing?"

"I don't know, but he usually works so hard, and he takes care of everything in the family. This time, we have to overcome the difficulties by ourselves, right?" At this time, the children's minds are the most sensitive, and Ling Jianuo doesn't want any of them. One person complained to Mi Yanchen, he took Xu Yi downstairs, walked directly to the car and said, "Get in the car, I'll take you home to sleep for a while."

"I don't," Xu Yi pursed his lips, "I can help you if I stay."

"Now you are helping us by obediently going back to sleep." Ling Jianuo directly put him on the co-pilot and fastened his seat belt, "Be obedient, you go back to sleep and come back later. Tonight we will keep watch, let you Aunt Xiu went back to bed."

Feng Xiuxiu has only slept on the bedside for half an hour for three consecutive nights, and Xu Yi also knew that this would not work for a long time, "Well then, I will accompany Zhang Xiaodong with you at night."

"kindness."

After returning, Ling Jianuo watched Xu Yi take a shower and go to bed before going out to the vegetable market.Zhang Xiaodong is in a special situation now, he is worried about buying food from outside.Although he is not good at cooking and the dishes he can cook are limited, he can cook while reading recipes.

It is feasible for leukemia to eat foods rich in protein and vitamins.Ling Jianuo bought a piece of fish, two pieces of tofu, and half a catty of pork liver and half a catty of celery. After returning home, he made a fish with tofu and fried pork liver with celery.They were all made according to the recipe. He tasted it, and the taste was quite suitable, but the fish was a bit old.

Ling Jianuo crossed out the cooking time in the notebook and changed it to three and a half minutes.

After Xu Yi woke up, his stomach was rumbling because of the aroma that filled the room.He got up and got dressed, went to the kitchen and took a look, "Brother Jianuo, are you cooking?"

"Isn't it just cooking?" Ling Jianuo screwed on the two thermos buckets, pointed to the fish left in the pot and said, "This is for the two of us, wash your hands quickly, and you can eat it right away."

Xu Yi didn't have much appetite, but he still finished the meal with Ling Jianuo.However, when he turned around to pack the dishes and entered the room, he didn't see Ling Jianuo's distressed and helpless eyes on his back.

In fact, Ling Jianuo himself has no appetite, but now he can more and more understand Mi Yanchen's previous mood of wishing the children at home to eat more.Seeing Xu Yi's thin face and his lack of appetite, he had no choice but to accompany him the whole time and put some food in the bowl for Xu Yi from time to time.

Zhang Xiaodong expressed his great excitement and satisfaction when Ling Jianuo cooked for him from home and sent him to the hospital.The whole layer of fried pork liver and bibimbap was finished, and there was no soup left with tofu and fish.

"Hey! It's delicious! Brother Jianuo, your skills are getting better and better than the tomato and egg soup you made last time. Last time, the soup contained too much salt, which caused me to drink a lot of water, and I went to the toilet at night. Almost peed on the bed."

Feng Xiuxiu also finished her share, Ling Jianuo waited for her to pack up, and stuffed her bag for her, "Go back to sleep, this is not a matter of a day or two, don't ruin your body first gone."

"Well, then I'll come over and change it with you tomorrow morning." Feng Xiuxiu explained to Zhang Xiaodong again, and then walked away step by step.

Ling Jianuo played Landlords with Zhang Xiaodong and Xu Yi for a while, seeing that Zhang Xiaodong looked really bad, so he pushed him to sleep.Wrapped in the quilt, Zhang Xiaodong protested with great grief and indignation, "Brother Jianuo, how could you do this? I just hurt my foot, not a bad cold!"

"Stop talking nonsense, get up and get slapped if you don't want to sleep." Ling Jianuo raised his hand at him.

Zhang Xiaodong stuck out his tongue, obediently closed his eyes and fell asleep.His resistance is weak now, and he doesn't feel it when he is having fun, but as soon as he closes his eyes, he falls asleep after a while.Ling Jianuo looked at him for a while, left Xu Yi behind, and went to the doctor by himself.

Dr. Wang repeated what he had said to Feng Xiuxiu, and finally said weakly: "In short, our hospital will do its best in the matter of bone marrow, but...you know, people who have no blood relationship, want to The possibility of successful pairing is too small."

Ling Jianuo asked: "Is there no other way to think about it? When is it a waste to wait like this?" Moreover, Zhang Xiaodong's situation does not allow them to sit and wait for the slim matching success rate like this.Without blood relationship, it is not easy to be matched successfully.

"Our hospital is also powerless." Dr. Wang suggested: "If your family members have the conditions, you can try to spread the word to the society. Every year, there are still many bone marrow donors who stand out from the society. There are cases of successful matching without blood relationship. , most of the time.”

After coming out of the doctor's office, Ling Jianuo felt extremely heavy.But he already had a preliminary plan in mind.Waiting to be on TV or on the news is too slow, and there are not many people who are willing to stand up and donate bone marrow. He needs a powerful person to find suitable bone marrow for him.

Tang Wenjie's weight is not enough.Uncle De can be regarded as the local emperor in City C, but the resources in City C are limited after all, and Uncle De will never help him.

Who is left?The energy is greater than Uncle De... the coverage area is wider... and I will help him...

The moment that name popped up in his heart, Ling Jianuo's whole body convulsed.The hospital in front of him, which was still full of people coming and going, suddenly turned into a black and white film, and he couldn't hear any sound, only his dying heart was trembling.
