When He Songbai heard this, he was worried that the eldest sister would be a widow.

He said, "Then what are you waiting for, hurry up and take people to the hospital."

Grandma looked at Monkey's anxious grandson angrily, and she said, "What are you anxious about, don't come forward in this matter."

"You call your own mother back, I have something to tell her."

He Songbai let out a sigh and happily rushed out the door.

The eldest sister's difficult problem lingered in He Songbai's chest for a long time. His eldest sister was handsome, and she did her work carefully and well. Except for her poor composition, she was deaf and mute. However, with only these two points, her whole person was denied.

A family who had originally taken a fancy to the eldest sister, disliked that she had nothing to say and could not communicate with her. He Songbai specially brought the eldest sister to the door to be a "female red", and also enthusiastically taught the "prospective brother-in-law" to read sign language.

As a result, he saw the eldest sister secretly wiping her tears when she woke up at night, and the young He Songbai got angry, pulled the eldest sister with a dark face and went home. Later, the words in the village became even worse. The eldest sister was wasting her time at home year after year. Because of this incident, He Songbai always had a hurdle in his heart that he couldn't overcome.

He wanted to find a man who was kind to his eldest sister. Li Dali could not dislike his landlord element, and he would not dislike his eldest sister element either. The eldest sister is good in everything, and He Songbai is confident that Li Dali will definitely like his eldest sister.

Thinking of this, He Songbai's footsteps became easier, and he ran to Li's house faster.

Li Cuihua happily signed the agreement, wiped away her tears and went to her son's bedside.

She said, "Son, my mother has found a daughter-in-law for you."

"You don't have to go alone. Mother will marry you in a few days, and you will come here in vain."

Li Dali was in a hurry, his eyes widened, twitching and white eyes floating.

He wanted to tell his mother, don't waste the family's money begging for a daughter-in-law, and don't delay others. But he couldn't even utter a word, and when he was in a hurry, he couldn't catch his breath and his face became blue. His lungs were pierced, and every breath hurt like a steel needle.

Li Cuihua seemed to know the thoughts hidden under her son's floating eyes, she hurriedly comforted: "Don't worry! Son!"

"This daughter-in-law doesn't want money, she said that she is the one who likes you, and she is willing to be your mother-in-law."

Li Dali's weak hand gradually held it, his face was filled with livid death, with faint blue veins appearing on his forehead, and he was sweating profusely.

Li Cuihua was so anxious that she couldn't say anything, when He Songbai came and walked straight to Li Dali's house.

"My grandma still has something to say to my mother. Let me have something to say to the captain."

Li Cuihua looked at her son with some anxiety, and then at He Songbai, her lips wriggled for a moment, and finally went to the He's house without saying a word.

He Songbai said, "You probably already know that my grandma wants to recruit you as her grandson-in-law."

Li Dali reluctantly gave a vague hum, and his voice was exhausted.

"No."

He Songbai said: "My grandma said that you can still be saved, and that this life can still be taken from the hands of Lord Yan. But my family saved your life in the crisis. I hope you survive and move to He's house with my eldest sister. live together."

"Do you want to?"

Li Dali was really reluctant to speak, he had already accepted his fate that he would not live long.

"died."

"No, delay."

He Songbai admired this captain from the bottom of his heart, even if he was dying on the bed, it still made people feel respectful.

He said seriously: "You can't die. Grandma said she would take you to the provincial hospital, where the doctor can save you."

"Whether or not this life is up to you."

Li Cuihua came to the He's house again, feeling quite apprehensive. She thought that the old landlady would not regret it

This will not work!

It was witnessed in black and white by the elders in the village.

Unexpectedly, after she came to Grandma Li's house, the old man said, "If you want to keep your son's life, you have to obey my instructions."

"What do I tell you to do?"

Granny Li's indifferent voice was arrogant, domineering and clear.

Li Cuihua only listened and stared, and then nodded obediently.

She heard the last, mouth wide open to swallow the egg.

"Remember! I remember, my eldest brother's life depends on grandma! I will never say a word, not even my man."

After the two elders reached an agreement, He Songbai took the team leader to the provincial hospital overnight.

Li Cuihua and him were running around in the car, using a stretcher borrowed from the health clinic, they carried the dying man end to end.

They came to the hospital late at night.

The nurse added a bed for Li Dali to sleep in the ward, and Li Cuihua squeezed her hard pockets and paid the hospitalization fee. The doctor came to see Li Dali's condition after going to work the next day.

The doctors and sanitation conditions of the provincial hospital are not comparable to those in the run-down small county town. The doctor gave Li Dali a full set of examinations and said, "Not very optimistic."

"But if you don't give up and insist on treatment, you will probably get better."

"That's it... Are the conditions in your family allowed?"

Li Cuihua squeezed the hard pocket in her pocket again, gritted her teeth, and felt a sense of courage.

He Songbai said without hesitation: "Although our family is poor, the life of the eldest brother is important."

The doctor kept Li Dali for a week, and only had surgery when his physical condition allowed, and let out all the congestion in his brain.

During this time, Li Dali only felt drowsy and unconscious. After he woke up one morning, he saw the young woman in front of the hospital bed.

Her skin was too pale from the sun, but her eyebrows and eyes were very delicate. The rosy lips pursed delicately and shyly, and opened them again, revealing white teeth. As if to say something, but she really was speechless.

Her rough hand held Li Dali's hand, and there was a burst of warmth.

Li Dali glanced at her, and there was a hint of spirit on his gray and black face.

The woman smiled shyly, and quietly looked at the medicine bottle hanging on the bed for him. From time to time, he wiped his dry, peeled lips with moist cotton, and mashed up a spoonful of white rice porridge to feed him.

He Songbai sent someone to the hospital and came back the next day.

Zhao Lanxiang asked him: "It's expensive to treat the captain, how much did it cost?"

He Songbai said: "It's all expensive medicines and can't stand the toss."

"He's sick enough to take care of, otherwise he'll be useless. I'll have to buy more nutrition for him in the future..."

Speaking of which, He Songbai frowned. His family's wealth had been hollowed out to treat Li Dali's illness, and there was no money left to buy nutritional supplements for him.

He Songbai thought about going to the black market to make more money, so he did what he said. After he came back, he didn't even sleep, and went to the county on a bicycle.

During this period of time, the mourners in the village sent mourners to the mourners, and the mourners mourned in a mess. The newly elected brigade leader generously took five days of mourning leave, and those who had difficulties at home did not have to go to work.

Before Zhao Lanxiang could take out the nutritional products such as malted milk essence and milk powder at the bottom of her press box, the man disappeared.

She had no choice but to put away the nutritional supplements, and then went back to the county in an ox cart.

She took out the money she earned from eating snacks sold by Tie Zhu these days and handed it over to Li Zhong.

Li Zhong nodded and installed the heavy sewing machine with a tricycle. He said, "You test it, and I will have someone deliver it to you at night."

Zhao Lanxiang touched the brand-new body, the sharp needles, the round and full belly, and the shiny and cool board surface, all of which were brand new. She looked back with satisfaction and said, "The goods are good."

Li Zhong took the money and said, "Big sister, why did you buy this bulky big guy?"

"What can I do, sew and mend."

Li Zhong was choked on the spot, and he thought that Zhao Lanxiang was going to change careers and do a job of mending.

He said, "How can you make money by selling food as a tailor, big girl, don't think so hard!"

Zhao Lanxiang smiled, "It's okay, we have to continue to make food. Brother, you bought a sewing machine and stocked it up, so it's cheap."

Li Zhong likes to listen to what he said. He asked for this sewing machine from his fourth uncle, and he hardly made any profit. I just want to think about his goodness, and I will often come to him to sell food in the future.

The planned economy is not without the magical effect of the planned economy. Its advantage is that prices are controlled by the state, and the prices of commodities are not affected by regions and low and high seasons, and they dare not inflate prices. Everything you buy is cheap. Coupled with the convenience of Li Zhong, Zhao Lanxiang was able to buy this machine at a fairly cheap price.

After the market economy opened up, the price of a sewing machine skyrocketed. When the productive forces meet the people's growing material needs, prices will come down again.

For example, before the reform and opening up, a pound of pork was seven or eight cents a pound. In the early 1980s, it was more than five yuan a pound. Later, everyone rushed to raise pigs and the price fell back to one. The price of this sophisticated machine will only increase faster and the heat will last longer. I made a lot of money from the bad guys who changed hands from the S city.

After she bought it in advance, she could use it herself, and she could keep the value by hoarding it, and she could earn back the money without having to sell it at the right time.

Cough, it went too far, Zhao Lanxiang just wanted to use it for other bad things.

It's not that Zhao Lanxiang didn't see the light in Li Zhong's eyes. She coughed lightly and said, "When my business is up and I eat a lot of food, you can send someone to me to get the goods."

Li Zhong was very pleasantly surprised, he said, "It's good to be brave, you can quickly get your business up and running. If you have any shortcomings, look for my brother."

Zhao Lanxiang said, "I won't be polite to you. I'm short of freight and goods. If there is a car to pick you up sooner or later, there is no shortage of manpower."

"It's clear that it's delivery, not just your share."

This sentence made Li Zhong couldn't help laughing and scolding, "You bastard girl, you are waiting for me here! Don't say it, it may not be easy to find someone else."

He put away the teasing on his face and became serious, "It's not easy to get a car out these days, let me think about it."

Zhao Lanxiang pursed her lips and smiled reservedly, "Think about it."

She doesn't buy a car, she uses someone else's car and asks others to help her work.

After communicating with Li Zhong, she went to the black market to find Liang Tiezhu on foot.
