Wang Baoyu was stunned for a moment, but still followed the little girl in, the black walls made the room look very dark, and the smell of dust could be smelled, on top of the two large pots, covered with notched lids, a half-full large water tank and a small bag of grain piled in the corner of the wall, it seemed that all the belongings of this family.

On the kang in the West House, a little girl of twelve or thirteen years old, with a red face, was lying on a tattered quilt, and when she saw Wang Baoyu coming in, she was surprised at first, and then said with a smile: "Big brother is here, I know you." ”

Wang Baoyu also knew this girl, it was Wei Youcai's eldest daughter Wei Dongni, Wang Baoyu put the things on the kang and said with a smile: "Dongni, why don't you get up yet?" Aren't you lazy again? ”

Dong Ni smiled shyly, she looked at the water tank, and instructed the little girl just now: "Sister, I am thirsty, you can fill me with a scoop of water to drink." The little girl obediently ran to the side of the tank, picked up the scoop and tiptoed into it, but the water level was too low to reach it, so she had to run to the yard and move a stone, and stepped on it to scoop up the water.

This Wei Youcai is really fucking lazy, and he doesn't even know how to fill the water. Wang Baoyu walked over, hugged the little girl off the stone, and persuaded her: "It's better for the big brother to come, be careful of falling." After saying that, he bent down and filled the scoop of water, this guy, the water surface is covered with a thin layer of ice indoors, is there any way to drink?

Wei Dongni probably saw Wang Baoyu's thoughts, and said, "It's okay, I often drink it." As he spoke, he struggled to get up, but he was panting in his mouth, and beads of sweat were on his face, and finally he lay down and gasped for breath. Wang Baoyu felt that something was wrong, and stepped forward to touch Wei Dongni's forehead, which was hot and feverish.

"Dongni, sick? Don't move. Wang Baoyu asked with concern.

Wei Dongni nodded, looked at Wang Baoyu with a pair of big black eyes, and said, "Big brother, I feel so cold!" My throat hurts, too, and I just want to drink water. ”

"Daddy went to the doctor?" Wang Baoyu asked, while taking out the canned fruit, wanting to open it for Wei Dongni to eat a few bites, the juice in it was stronger than the ice water in the tank.

At this moment, Wei Dongni nodded, but said something that made Wang Baoyu feel extremely sad.

"Big brother, I don't eat it, can I leave the canned food for my sister to eat, my parents haven't eaten it either." Wei Dongni whispered.

"Dong Ni, be good, you eat first, my sister still has it." Wang Baoyu said.

Wei Dongni still shook her head and said, "Thank you, big brother, this thing is too expensive, can you return it, Dad will cost money to find a doctor to prescribe medicine, and the family doesn't have a lot of money." ”

Wang Baoyu felt that his eyes were a little moist, what a sensible child, but he had to live such a poor life. And children from families like Gong Xiangjun's family beat their fathers and scolded their mothers all day long, but they are well fed and warmly dressed, which is really unfair.

Wang Baoyu said: "Dong Ni, Brother Qian who is seeing a doctor still has it, you eat first!" ”

Wang Baoyu rummaged through the kitchen for a long time, only to find a dusty spoon, and fed the opened canned fruit to Wei Dongni, the canned food seemed to be very appetizing, Wei Dongni ate a small half bottle in one go, and her spirit was much better, and she barely sat up against the wall.

The little girl was lying on the edge of the kang and watching, Wang Baoyu handed her the rest of the canned food, the little girl happily took the canned food and ate it, and asked while eating: "It's so delicious, how much do you make a year, big brother?" ”

Wang Baoyu was amused, and the little guy knew a lot, so he teased her and said, "My brother doesn't make money." ”

Yikes! The little girl looked very surprised, and continued to ask, "This is not good, how can you live without money?" The little girl's tone was very much like that of an adult, and she probably learned how much her mother nagged her.

Wang Baoyu smiled, didn't answer, turned around and asked Dong Ni, "Dong Ni, how long have you been sick?" ”

"About a month?" Wei Dongni said.

"Have you been feverish?" Wang Baoyu asked again in surprise.

"Hmmm! I've been having a low-grade fever, I don't know what's wrong, it's serious today. Wei Dongni's expression looked helpless.

At this moment, the puppy outside barked again, and then Wei Youcai and an old doctor in the village walked in, the old doctor's surname was Liu, and he was the only barefoot doctor in the village.

Seeing Wang Baoyu sitting on the kang, Wei Youcai first showed a panicked expression, and then forced out a smile and said, "Director Wang is here, you see that there are only these things at home, what do you want to take?" ”

"Big brother is a good man, and he brought a lot of things." Wei Dongni whispered.

"None of them are good people, if it weren't for the fine, would the family be so poor?" Wei Youcai muttered dissatisfiedly.

Wang Baoyu ignored him and asked the old doctor who was checking Wei Dongni's condition, "Doctor Liu, how is Dongni?" ”

Dr. Liu stepped forward and touched Dong Ni's forehead, looked at her tongue and throat again, shook his head, and said helplessly: "I can't cure it, it seems to be tuberculosis." ”

When Wei Youcai heard this, his face changed greatly, he took out the crumpled ten yuan from his innermost pocket for a long time, and pleaded: "Doctor Liu, you prescribe some medicine for Dong Ni first, if you need money, I will borrow it again." ”

Dr. Liu said: "There is wealth, this is not a matter of money, the child's illness is in our small village, and if it is to be delayed, it must go to the big hospital immediately." ”

When Wei Dongni heard this, a somewhat desolate smile appeared on her face, and she gasped and said, "Don't treat it, I'm fine, just cough for a few days." ”

"It's okay, Doctor Liu, as long as the child has a fever, it's fine." Wei Youcai said.

When Wang Baoyu heard this, he was angry from his heart, and shouted at Wei Youcai: "Wei Youcai, how can you be a father like this, the child is very sick and must be treated." ”

Wei Youcai squatted down with his head in his hands, kept hitting his head, and said, "How can you have money to treat diseases!" It's all a mortal disease! How much is the end? I've sold my house, and it's not enough to sell my land! ”

"Fuck it, get out of the way!" Wang Baoyu yelled at Wei Youcai, and was picked up by someone to pick up Wei Dongni and walked outside the house.

"Director Wang, what are you going to do?" Wei Youcai stood up and said after him.

"See a doctor for your child." Wang Baoyu said coldly.

"Big brother, no, I'm fine." Wei Dongni leaned on Wang Baoyu's arms and whispered, and after speaking, she coughed violently.

"Dong Ni, don't be afraid, there is a big brother here, I will definitely cure you." Wang Baoyu comforted Wei Dongni.

"Hey, why is there a fight in front of you?" Toni asked weakly.

Wang Baoyu looked around and didn't see anyone, no, it must be a hallucination, Wang Baoyu was in a hurry, and walked faster.

"Big brother, I just had a dream that a god from the sky came and wanted to take me away, saying that it was not cold there at all." Wei Dongni said.

"With the big brother here, no one can take you away." Wang Baoyu said firmly.
