Back to 80s bride
Chapter 24 Regrouping
At this moment, a slightly hoarse voice said: "I only have one hundred yuan, and I can only pay him one hundred yuan. I don't know if it is enough?"
Everyone looked for their reputation, and it was the young man who carried someone back who spoke.
He looked young, fourteen or fifteen years old, and his clothes were really poor and tattered in terms of Haishi.The pair of cotton shoes on the feet seem to be a little thin because they don't have enough cotton.It was such a young man who knew at a glance that his family must be very poor was willing to pay a hundred yuan to treat a strange old man.Moreover, the old man is very likely to be a tramp, and the money is likely to be wasted and never returned.
Everyone couldn't help but tremble, and were deeply shocked. The adults have been married for many years, and they know that it is not easy to support a family. They only thought that Chen Minghui was a young man with passion and passion without hesitation. They kindly persuaded: "My child , This 100 yuan is not one yuan. It is also very important to you. It may be your family’s living expenses for the next three months or even half a year. Don’t act impulsively. Think about your family. If you take out this money, you Parents and younger siblings may be hungry for a long time."
What the man said was the truth. If Chen Minghui had only this hundred yuan in his hand, he would never take it out.It is said that good intentions have good rewards, but where the good rewards are is unknown, and no one can touch them and see them, let alone when they will come.And the misery of life is present.With only one hundred yuan, if you use it to save others, then you will probably be the one who starves to death. It is not a question of whether it is worthwhile to exchange your own life for the lives of others.What about the rest of the family?No matter how grateful the rescued person is, he still has his family and his responsibility. He must put his family first, and only take care of other people's family when there is extra, even if this other person is someone who saved his life .It cannot be blamed for the selfishness of human nature, it can only be said that everyone has everyone's responsibility.
The situation is different now. Chen Minghui has just made [-] yuan, which is net profit. It won't affect anything if he takes out [-] yuan, but it may save a life.But if he was asked to take more, he would not agree.The tuition fees for him and Qian Yu are still astronomical, and it is not known whether they can make up enough.Let him take out all his property to save a stranger, so what will he and Qian Yu do?Without being able to read, their lives may go in another direction, and it may be a completely dark future.
Is it necessary to exchange the bright future they can see for the possibility that a stranger will not know whether he can survive?
Or a person with such a noble character is no different from being respected, but Chen Minghui is not such a person.
With those experiences in his previous life, and seeing too many tricks and conspiracies, even if he can't become a desperate person, he can't become so noble and selfless.
It's not his good luck to live this life again, but God's pity for Qian Yu, he just came to compensate Qian Yu for a carefree life.
The doctor reacted first, "One hundred yuan may not be enough, but it is better than nothing. You pay it first, and I will give him medicine. When the police come, we will see what the police mean."
"Okay." 100 yuan is the bottom line, no matter how much he will not take it.This old man is not someone of his, let alone his responsibility alone.Even crowdfunding, the money he put out was quite a lot.
Chen Minghui stood up holding the wall, his legs were still a little weak, and slowly moved to pay the fee.
When he came back with the receipt, the police had already arrived, and the four men had already explained everything clearly.
The police are helpless, they have encountered too many such things and dealt with them too much, and most of them can't find their families in the end.
One of the men saw that the police had nothing to do, so he thought about quitting. He was afraid that if he stayed for a while, the police would force them to pay.He doesn't have a hundred yuan to pay. There are four children in the family, three boys and one daughter. With his monthly salary of tens of yuan, life is very tight.His family was reluctant to eat meat from the factory, so they secretly sold it for food.
The man wrapped his coat tightly, his expression was a little nervous, and he said cowardly as if he was afraid that the police would not let him go: "Well, if there's nothing else, I'll leave first, I still have something to do at home."
This person was not a family member of the old man, but he was just a kind person. The police naturally had no reason to detain him, so they nodded and said, "Leave me an address, and I will ask you if I have anything in the future, so you can leave."
"The address..." The man's eyes fluttered, and he obviously didn't want to stay.He didn't want to stick to someone who couldn't be photographed just because of a good intention.
Seeing him like this, the police knew what he was thinking, and explained: "The main reason is that I am afraid that the old man's family members will find them in the future and ask you about today's events. Or the family members want to thank them, and there is nowhere to look for them. But these two Neither of these situations is very likely, and it is very likely that the elderly will not be able to find their family members, which is just a routine."
The man left his address and left.
The others followed suit, and were about to speak when the little nurse at the front came out with a small note.
She said to the police with surprise on her face, "It was found in the inner pocket of the old man's jacket. It was a small note with an address and a phone number on it. It should belong to the old man's family."
Everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and even the policeman laughed in surprise.
"Great, I'll get in touch right away. It seems that this is an old man who has been separated from his family." The policeman left happily, and the rescuers who were going to leave were unwilling to leave.
I heard that the old man's address has a phone number. If someone can install a phone these days, what kind of family must it be?Such people can eat whatever they can leak out of their fingers.
Several men squatted on the ground silently, secretly excited.
After a while, the policeman came back and said beamingly: "I got in touch, and the person will be there right away. If there is any illness, I will treat it first, and it will not cost a penny."
Chen Minghui didn't leave because of the family, but simply waited for the family to arrive and pay the money he had paid in advance.
Unexpectedly, what was waiting was an acquaintance - Manager Ma of the department store.
I don't know what the policeman said to Manager Ma on the phone. The policeman took Chen Minghui and just introduced him, but Manager Ma threw a punch at Chen Minghui.
"Good boy, what are you doing for me? What's the point of taking revenge on an old man?" Manager Ma was anxious, and the phone signal was not good, so he couldn't hear clearly. Now when he saw the police dragging Chen Minghui, he thought It was Chen Minghui who took revenge on the old man and was arrested by the police.
It's also Chen Minghui's rascal spirit, he really doesn't look like a good person when he doesn't restrain himself.
Fortunately, Chen Minghui was very skilled. When Manager Ma came over with his punch, the policeman hadn't reacted yet. He reacted first, caught the man's fist, turned his hand and cut it, twisted the man's hands behind his back, and kicked him. On his calf, he pushed the person back to the ground.
Mrs. Ma rushed forward immediately and screamed: "What are you doing, you dare to commit murder in front of the police, and you police don't care."
The policeman felt his brain hurt, pointed at Chen Minghui and said, "I told you what's wrong with your family. This kid saved the life of your old man. If you don't want to thank him with nice words, you beat him up as soon as you meet him. What's the point? Could it be that saving your family made a mistake?"
Manager Ma poked his neck, "Didn't he kidnap the old man for revenge?"
"What kind of hostage and revenge? He is saving people! Your old man is grateful to him, if not for him, he would have died a long time ago."
The few men who were helping to save the person at the side also rushed forward to explain, "This little brother ran for more than five miles with the old man on his back, and he was exhausted and paralyzed here."
"When the old man first arrived, his condition was extremely urgent. Nurses and doctors urged him to pay the fee, saying that if he did not pay the fee, he would not be given treatment. If he was delayed for a minute, he would die. It was the little brother who took out the only one hundred yuan left in his pocket to pay in advance. Medical expenses. Without the little brother’s money, the old man would have disappeared by now, and your family members can collect the body directly when they arrive.”
The more they talked, the more they exaggerated, just to highlight their life-saving grace, and to make this seemingly rich family appreciate them, how meaningful it is.
Manager Ma also roughly understood at this time, and his face changed from anger to embarrassment.Seeing that the misunderstanding was clear, Chen Minghui let him go.
Madam Ma blushed and said shamelessly: "Look at this incident, I'm really sorry for you, my old horse is a quick-tempered person, don't be as knowledgeable as him."
Chen Minghui wanted to say it's okay, just give him the money he paid in advance, but he opened his mouth and coughed.
"What's the matter? Why is your face flushing, child? Do you have a fever? Nurse, come here and have a look." Mrs. Ma hurried to call the nurse, and Manager Ma hurried to pay his old man's hospitalization fee.
Back at the nurse station, I heard my wife yelling, "Oh my God, 39 degrees two, how can you bear it, such a high degree, no wonder your face is so red, and you keep coughing, you are not afraid of pneumonia? What, I’m taking paracetamol, how can I take it seriously, give this child an infusion.”
Immediately afterwards, a young girl's voice followed and said: "This child should have no money, maybe the [-] will be paid to your elderly. This child is also kind-hearted, and he is sick with some money." You are reluctant to get an injection, but you can give all your property to a completely stranger old man, your family has met a good person, you should thank this child very much."
Ma Chaoyue heard it outside the nurse's station, blushing, thinking that he had made things difficult for this child before, but this child saved his old man.I don't know how difficult this child's life is. He came out to ask for a living at a young age, and he was reluctant to get an injection when he had a fever like this. It can be seen that he is short of money, but he has cut off his child's money.Ma Chaoyue's character was not that bad, and Chen Minghui had saved his old man at this time, so he was so guilty that his conscience was on fire, and he hurriedly opened the door and went in.
As soon as Mrs. Ma saw Ma Chaoyue, she said, "Hurry up and return the one hundred yuan that the child paid in advance to the other child, and pay some hospitalization fees for the child. The child has a high fever of 39 degrees. It must not be pneumonia."
"Yes, yes, I'll do it now." Ma Chaoyue turned around and walked out again. Chen Minghui wanted to stop him and say no, but he coughed as soon as he opened his mouth, and he was lying on the hospital bed under the pressure of Mrs. Ma.
I don't know if it's a psychological effect. I don't know that Chen Minghui can still stand up when his fever is so severe. Now that he knows it, his whole body feels weak and his whole body has no strength.
The nurse first gave him a buttock injection, and then gave him an IV drip. Chen Minghui fell into a drowsy sleep.
In the dream, it was not practical, and I dreamed of the previous life.In a sea of flames, he saw Qian Yu, not the vicissitudes of the previous life, but the immature cheeks of a young man in this life, looking at him through the fire, calling his name.
"Qian Yu, Xiaoyu..." Chen Minghui shouted, and he woke up suddenly.A shadow beside the bed moved, and then a female voice sounded.
"Son, are you awake?" It was Mrs. Ma.
"Yeah." Chen Minghui looked up at the window, the sky was slightly bright, it was about four or five o'clock, and he had slept for so long. "You've been here to take care of me? Thank you."
Mrs. Ma said: "What's the matter, I should thank you for saving my old man. Originally, this old man had no reason for you, and you are in such a situation. You are sick and are reluctant to take money for medical treatment, but at that time If you can take out the money to pay the hospitalization fee for my elderly, our family should thank you."
Chen Minghui didn't explain that he still had money in his pocket, and the reason why he didn't get an injection was because he thought he didn't have such a serious fever and thought it was just a common cold.
At this time, Ma Chaoyue pushed the door open and came in. Seeing Chen Minghui wake up, he strode in, "You are awake, I bought porridge and soy milk, you can eat some."
Chen Minghui was not too polite with Ma Chaoyue. He is sick now, and he has not eaten or drank well in the past few days. Now he really needs to eat something to recover his strength as soon as possible.
"By the way, your name was Xiaoyu just now, who is Xiaoyu? Your date?" Mrs. Ma spoke up.
I have to say that Mrs. Ma is telling the truth, but it is a pity that she is too unfriendly to homosexuals at this time. Anyone who dares to admit that he is gay may be arrested as a mental patient at any time. In order not to cause trouble, Chen Minghui said: "I am a younger brother."
"Oh, then you brothers have a good relationship. You kept calling him by his name when you fell asleep." Mrs. Ma laughed softly.
Thinking of Qian Yu, Chen Minghui's eyes softened, "There are only two of us left in the family, and our relationship is indeed much better than that of ordinary brothers."
Madam Ma was taken aback, and subconsciously asked, "Where are your parents?"
Chen Minghui lowered his eyelids and said calmly: "I passed away when I was a child, and my grandfather was left to lead me through. The first two years were gone, and only my brother and I were left in the family."
Madam Ma felt a pain in her heart, such a small child...
"Then you came here to join relatives?"
"No, I sold the last old house in my family. I want to come here and do some business to earn some money for my brother and I to study."
Chen Minghui said it calmly, as if the matter was irrelevant, but Mrs. Ma couldn't take it anymore, and she couldn't help crying.While crying, she turned her head and thumped Ma Chaochao, "Look at what you are doing. This is a human affair. This child is so hard, you can't help him. Ma Chaochao, when did you become such a person? You are so heartless. I won't live with you, you have a bad conscience..." Mrs. Ma cried and scolded, scolded and beat.
Ma Chaoyue didn't dare to hide, so he just stood up. At this time, he was also guilty, and explained weakly, "Xiaohong, listen to me, I really haven't done anything with conscience, just this child I was wrong, but I really didn't know the situation of this child at the time. I was really in a bad mood that day, and you also know that my dad just left that day, and I was in trouble, and the leader criticized me for not being able to sell the fabric, and the backlog In a warehouse, the hatchbacks collided with each other, and Zhao Pei added fuel and vinegar to me and said a lot of things, so I would drive you away. "
"Hey, you can do this even if it's not like this? Ma Chaoyue, it's hard money for people to make money in business. Why don't you let people earn it! The country allows it, what right do you have to disallow it? You say Say, do you usually bully others like this, Ma Chaoyue, you are such a big official..."
Ma Chaoyue had no choice but to swear: "That's the only thing, I'm really devastated that day." Seeing that Mrs. Ma was still scolding him, Ma Chaoyue hurriedly said: "No matter what, this is all my fault. Will make amends and admit mistakes."
As he spoke, he bowed ninety degrees to Chen Minghui and said, "I'm sorry, I really got caught up at the same time, and I didn't control my temper for a while. I'm really not like this. I'm sorry, little brother, and I will definitely make up for your loss."
Chen Minghui shook his head, "No, just let me go back and buy the goods."
Mrs. Ma said: "This is for sure, isn't it?"
After not hearing Manager Ma's reply for a long time, Mrs. Ma turned to look at him, and saw Manager Ma frowning deeply.Madam Ma suddenly became angry, "Why, you still don't agree?"
Ma Chaoyue quickly explained: "No, I just think the profit of this toy is too small. After all the tossing and tossing, the profit of 400 yuan is exhausted, and it is not enough to do anything. Little brother, have you ever thought about doing some other business? .”
Chen Minghui frowned, and looked up, "I thought about it, but I don't have enough capital."
Manager Ma sighed, "There's really nothing you can do with 100 yuan."
Chen Minghui thought a lot in the blink of an eye, for example, he did have some money in his hand, but he didn't take it out when he saved people. Would Manager Ma have any ideas?But if he still doesn't make a solid statement at this time, if Manager Ma is really willing to help him, maybe he can turn around in one fell swoop.Besides, looking at the performance of Manager Ma and his wife, Mr. Ma should be out of danger, otherwise the two of them wouldn't have stayed with him.
Chen Minghui stared at Manager Ma and Mrs. Ma for a long time, and finally decided to believe in his two lifetimes of insight, and said frankly, "I still have some money in my hand."
Ma Chao asked subconsciously, "How much?"
"More than 900."
Ma Chaoyue didn't think about other things, but heaved a sigh of relief, "That's enough, we can do some other business."
Seeing that the two of them were about to talk, Madam Ma stood up, "You guys are chatting, I'll go see Dad."
Ma Chaoyue said: "You go, the eldest brother and sister-in-law are guarding there, I will take care of you here, if the old man wakes up, you can call me."
"Okay." Madam Ma agreed and left.
Ma Chaoyue moved a stool and sat on the head of Chen Minghui's bed, and talked to him in detail.Chen Minghui was on the floor where there were few inpatients, and he was the only one in this ward, so the two of them could talk freely.
"I have a friend who makes adult clothing, that is, he can make it with the fabric, and he can buy it in his shop. At this time, I see what flare pants woolen coat and striped sailor suit are in his shop. Clothing like this sells very well, as well as men’s suits. I think you can buy some of these, but don’t sell them in Haishi. Locals here in Haishi can find these long-established shops. I don’t want to buy street stalls. You can take it far away, and I don’t need to go too far, just go to a neighboring province, but it may be a bit risky.”
Chen Minghui understood what Ma Chaoyue meant. Although he was allowed to do business at this time, the various regulations and norms about the business were not clear, especially in the first few years, what they sold was speculative. Now no one knows whether what they sell is speculative or not.
But Chen Minghui knew that it was not counted, not only was it not counted, but in another year, even the cloth ticket would be cancelled.Because the backlog of fabrics across the country is too much, the inventory is too large, and the country has no way to deal with it. The central government can only stop the distribution of tickets urgently.Even at this time, the cloth ticket has been printed for the next three years, but the productivity has increased, and the cloth has been piled up in the warehouse and even moldy. However, because the people can't afford the cloth ticket, they really have no choice but to stop it urgently.
After that, the clothing business will usher in its real spring.
"I think this is very feasible. I also have a friend who makes handmade leather shoes. You can also sell leather shoes from him. With my face, the price will definitely not be high. The profit margin is large, but it is a bit risky. I don’t know you Dare you?"
Chen Minghui smiled, "I can't even afford to eat, so why not dare. Uncle Ma, just help out. If it really happens, don't worry, I will never expose you and your friends. People are very stubborn, even if they beat me to death, I don’t want to say it, and no one can force me to say it.”
Ma Chaoyue said with a smile: "My boy, you dare to go out alone, you have some guts. You are recuperating here. When you don't have a fever, I will take you to my friend right away."
Chen Minghui nodded, obviously he had no appetite, but he forced himself to eat more.He must get better as soon as possible, and must not be sick at this time.
Seeing Chen Minghui gulping down food, Ma Chaoyue was also hungry, so he lowered his head and ate his portion.
Maybe Chen Minghui has a good physique, maybe he forced himself to eat and rest, anyway, after three days, his fever really subsided, and the hospital spent 58 yuan and seven cents on him in these three days, Chen Minghui gritted his teeth in distress, but he finally found a more profitable one He is not too painful.
Chen Minghui visited Mr. Ma's ward when he was free these few days. Mr. Ma woke up and was out of danger, but still needs to be hospitalized for observation.According to the doctor, it was a sudden cerebral hemorrhage. Fortunately, it was delivered in time, and Chen Minghui was willing to help pay the hospitalization fee. This saved his life, otherwise, most of them would have died.Therefore, Ma Chaoyue is even more grateful to Chen Minghui, and has a completely benefactor attitude towards Chen Minghui.
This day, Chen Minghui was discharged from the hospital. Before he left, he came to the ward again to see Mr. Ma. The old man was already awake, but he didn't know anyone, and he only stared wide-eyed.But this also made Ma Chaoyue's family very happy.
The two were talking in the ward, when suddenly the door of the ward was pushed open, and a man in shabby clothes walked in.
The way this man was dressed was really out of tune with the relatives of the Ma family. The brothers of the Ma family were all quite capable and lived a good life, and none of them was so disgraceful.At first, Chen Minghui thought it might be a distant relative, but as soon as the man opened his mouth, Chen Minghui immediately knew who he was.
"That Mr. Ma." The man smiled obsequiously: "I was one of the people who saved Mr. Ma's life that day. Later, I left suddenly because of some urgent matters at home, but I also contributed at that time."
Chen Minghui had already recognized that this was the man who thought that Mr. Ma was a homeless man who couldn't afford the hospital bill, and pretended to leave before the police forced them to donate money.
The man continued to smile flatteringly, "I heard that those who saved Master Ma back then were each given a thank you fee of three yuan. Look, mine..."
It turned out that this person heard about the thank you fee by accident, and came here to ask for the money.
Not only was Chen Minghui speechless, he really didn't know what to say to this kind of person.He thought that with Ma Chaoyue's temper, he might not give it up, but he didn't expect that although Ma Chaoyue hated men's behavior, he turned his head and asked Chen Minghui: "At the beginning, the police said that there were five people including you, and one of them left. Is it him?"
The man took a closer look and saw that the child who saved people was standing in front of him, and he was overjoyed, "It's me, did you forget that I helped you hold the old man's butt? If I hadn't helped you along the way, the old man How can you carry it so securely, if you fall, you won’t be able to save it.”
Chen Minghui had recognized him a long time ago, but he looked down on the man's behavior, but it was undeniable that he had indeed participated in saving people. Chen Minghui would never deny what the man had done just because of his displeasure. He just nodded and didn't say hello to the man.
Ma Chaoyue didn't say anything, just took out the money and handed it to him, the man took it and nodded and bowed, "Thank you, thank you Mr. Ma, you are a good man, and Master Ma will be safe."
Ma Chaoyue frowned and said, "Thank you for saving the old man. If there is nothing wrong, please go back first. The doctor said that the old man needs to rest."
The man took the money and said happily: "Then I won't bother you, see you later."
"Goodbye." Ma Chaoyue also said.
After the man left, Chen Minghui said: "We were the five who saved people back then, and there will be no more. Now you have seen them all. The others are all liars. Don't be fooled."
Ma Chaoyue said: "No, I inquired about it at the beginning, and I knew that there were five people who saved people. I found this one myself, otherwise I would have found it too."
Chen Minghui nodded, as long as he wasn't fooled.
Suddenly Mrs. Ma wiped her tears and said: "The reason why we must give the thank you fee is because it is not easy for Dad to raise the old Ma and his brothers, especially not easy. At that time, the seven boys in the family did not starve to death. Growing up, the old man suffered a lot. In the most difficult years, the old man ate the roots of the tree and saved the food for the children."
Ma Chaoyue didn't know what he thought of, and his eye circles were red, "Xiaohui, you don't know, in the most difficult years, we couldn't eat at home, and our brothers almost starved to death."
"I remember it very clearly. One day, we suddenly made broth at home, and our brothers' eyes turned green. My dad said it was a rabbit picked up outside, and let us eat it secretly. Our brothers were so greedy, I ate it, and persuaded my dad to eat it. My dad also ate it for our peace of mind. We drank all the soup in a pot. It was the first meal after being hungry for ten days or more. I drank too much soup, got up at night to go to the bathroom, accidentally touched my dad's leg, my dad cried out in pain, I looked down, there was blood on his leg, and remembered that something was wrong with his walking in the afternoon, he said he was going up a mountain He was injured while picking up rabbits, he didn’t notice anything at that time, but now he realized something was wrong, went to take off his pants, and found that his leg was missing...a piece..."
Ma Chaoyue couldn't go on talking, a seven-foot man wept bitterly, mourning choked up.
"Since then, our brothers have sworn that we will treat the old man well in this life. That's why I was so anxious when my dad suddenly disappeared. I did things too much. I didn't expect to cause so much harm to Xiaohui. Really. very sorry."
"Uncle Ma, it's all in the past. If the old man survives a catastrophe, he will have future blessings." Chen Minghui's voice became hoarse again.Father's love is like a mountain, always forbearing and deep.
In this world, there are like Li Cui who sell their children to be their own parents, and there are also like Master Ma who don't want their own lives, but want their children to live.
Ma Chaoyue wiped away his tears, "Stop talking, it's all over, it's all over."
"Go, take you to my friend's place, and let you make a business today." Ma Chaoyue swallowed back his tears, "I know you are in a hurry to spend money, let's seize all the time and race against time."
Ma Chaoyue took Chen Minghui out of the ward, and the two went down to the first floor. Just as they were about to walk out of the hospital gate, someone suddenly called out behind Ma Chaoyue, "Manager Ma?"
Ma Chaoyue turned his head, it was Fan Chunjuan from the department store.
Ma Chaoyue said: "A few days ago, you asked for a lie and said that your son was sick and hospitalized, and he was also treated in this hospital."
Fan Chunjuan nodded, "I don't know who you are coming to see, Manager Ma?"
Manager Ma smiled and said: "It's my father. The old man is getting old and has some senile diseases. Fortunately, he is fine now."
"That's good." Fan Chunjuan followed.At this time, she finally saw who the boy standing beside Ma Chaoyue was, her eyes widened immediately, and she subconsciously said in disbelief, "Manager Ma, do you know this kid?"
Manager Ma laughed loudly without explaining, "Yes, I was joking around before. My relative's child likes business matters. His family disagrees with him doing business, so I will punish him."
After all, businessmen are not in business at this time, and are easily looked down upon by others. Manager Ma no longer wants Chen Minghui to follow the path of a department store, so he defends him, and he does not want more people to know his business status, lest he People look down upon.
Knowing his kindness, Chen Minghui acquiesced.
Only then did Fan Chunjuan relax her hanging heart, "That's good. During this period of time, I have been worrying about this child, thinking that this child is in business to make money to support his family, how can he live without this source of income. I had already asked the toy manufacturer, and they agreed that he would go directly to buy the goods. Unexpectedly, that afternoon, my family suddenly said that my son had a high fever and was hospitalized with pneumonia. He ran over as soon as he was in a hurry to ask for leave. He also forgot the agreement with the child. When I remembered it, it was several days later. I hurried back to work and found out that the kid had indeed visited me and asked for my home address. But for safety reasons, our colleagues in the building did not give it to him. When I left, I was afraid that the child would go again, so I specifically asked the child to give him the address if he asked again. I didn’t expect that the child never came again. I have been thinking about it all the time, and I feel relieved to see him today.”
Chen Minghui's heart warmed, and knowing the reason, he said sincerely: "Thank you, Aunt Fan, for making you anxious during this time."
Fan Chunjuan waved her hands again and again, "It's okay, as long as you are good." At the same time, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart, that Zhao Pei went all the way to please people, but in the end he didn't know that Manager Ma and this child were so close, and he didn't know that he accidentally offended people. When something happens, I'm afraid Manager Ma will never care about that little relationship.This Zhao Pei's thousands of calculations have come to nothing.People, after all, you have to be worthy of your conscience.
The three of them chatted for a few more words before parting ways. On the way, Ma Chaoyue said, "Fan Chunjuan is a nice person. She told the truth. Her son was admitted to the hospital suddenly with pneumonia that day. She asked me to ask for leave temporarily."
"I see. I will go and see her when I have a chance in a few days."
Ma Chaoyue smiled and said, "There's no need to be in a hurry. Anyway, she can't run away to work with me. The most important thing for you now is to take care of yourself first, and then talk about other things when you have spare money. As for Fan Chunjuan, it's for your sake." I will take care of her, and she is not short of that for the time being, let's talk about it later when I have a chance."
Chen Minghui thought for a while and said, "That's fine."
Ma Chaoyue drove people to his friend's small shop on a bicycle. The small shop was located in a very hidden location and the space was small. There was only one sewing machine, and behind it were some ready-made garments. There was not a single piece of fabric in the shop.
If Ma Chaoyue hadn't brought him here, he would never have come to this kind of shop.
Seeing Ma Chaoyue, the shopkeeper greeted them very enthusiastically on Thursday and poured tea for both of them.
"Beyond, why do you have so much time to come here today? Also, who does this kid belong to? Is there a date? He is so handsome."
"You have a good eye." Ma Chaoyue laughed, and his attitude was very familiar. He pushed Chen Minghui forward and introduced: "This is a relative's child who is very close to my hometown. He is my nephew. You know that this year Life is hard for a month, why don't you come out of your hometown and join me, planning to do some business?"
"Are you doing business?" The shopkeeper said meaningfully on Thursday, and then looked at Ma Chaoyue and smiled.
Ma Chaoyue slapped Thursday boldly, "Say it bluntly, boy, don't come with me, I don't know you yet, tell me, how many pieces of fabric do you want this time, just ask my nephew Now that the clothes are ready, you don’t need any fabrics.”
The ready-to-wear shop opened on Thursday mainly makes clothes for others. Most people get the fabrics themselves. They make styles for them and earn handwork fees.This is because the fabrics at this time need fabric tickets, and it is absolutely impossible to open a clothing store like the future generations with the fabric tickets in the hands of individuals.But there are only a few ready-made clothes hanging in the shop, so it's no big deal to attract customers to come here to make clothes.This is also the time since Chen Minghui came in, only a few pieces of ready-made clothes were seen on the wall of this shop, but no fabrics were seen.
But this is only on the surface. Since the reform and opening up, the higher authorities have allowed business, and Thursday's brain has come alive.In the beginning, it was absolutely standard, that is, to make ready-made clothes for people to earn a handcraft fee, and then sell the cloth or ready-made clothes when we can get the fabric.
The reason is that productivity has improved, and fabrics have been mass-produced, but the number of fabric tickets issued is limited. As a result, even if ordinary people want to buy fabrics with money in their hands, they can’t buy them without tickets. If you don't go out, some of them even appear moldy and damp.
The director of the fabric factory watched the things the workers worked hard to produce go to waste, and because the fabrics could not be sold, the workers had not been paid their wages for half a year, and the elderly and children of the workers’ families could not eat. The days after resignation were not good, and the factory manager was anxious, so anxious that his mouth was full of bubbles.
At the same time, Ma Chaoyue of the department store was also facing this situation. He put pressure from above and urged from below, so the two got together to discuss for a long time, and finally they really came up with a regulation.
That is to sell the moldy and damp fabrics piled up in the factory to the emerging clothing stores outside. As for the fabric tickets, it doesn’t matter if you don’t have them for the time being. in arrears.These workers are just waiting for money to pay wages to support their families.
The reason why the factory director and Ma Chaoyue dared to do this is because they have some brains.When the two sat together to study, they considered the current situation. Faced with the situation of a large backlog of fabrics all over the country, the upper management had already held meetings from time to time to study solutions.Finally, judging from the reform and opening up market in recent years, it is likely that nine times out of ten, the cloth ticket will be canceled in the end, and the cloth will be allowed to be privately owned.Then, the cloth ticket owed to the factory outside will be solved easily.
There is no lack of people with active minds in any age. In fact, in January of the next year, the higher authorities really banned the distribution of tickets across the country.But at this time, neither the factory manager nor Manager Ma knew that they were taking great risks in making this decision.
On the same day, a staff meeting was called, and the idea was explained to all the staff, to see what the big guys mean.At the same time, he proposed that if there is an accident in the future, the responsible factory manager will be fully responsible, but all employees should be responsible for the living expenses of the factory manager's family members.After calculating the workers, there are 40 of them, and the average share of the number of elderly and children is not enough.
Everyone looked for their reputation, and it was the young man who carried someone back who spoke.
He looked young, fourteen or fifteen years old, and his clothes were really poor and tattered in terms of Haishi.The pair of cotton shoes on the feet seem to be a little thin because they don't have enough cotton.It was such a young man who knew at a glance that his family must be very poor was willing to pay a hundred yuan to treat a strange old man.Moreover, the old man is very likely to be a tramp, and the money is likely to be wasted and never returned.
Everyone couldn't help but tremble, and were deeply shocked. The adults have been married for many years, and they know that it is not easy to support a family. They only thought that Chen Minghui was a young man with passion and passion without hesitation. They kindly persuaded: "My child , This 100 yuan is not one yuan. It is also very important to you. It may be your family’s living expenses for the next three months or even half a year. Don’t act impulsively. Think about your family. If you take out this money, you Parents and younger siblings may be hungry for a long time."
What the man said was the truth. If Chen Minghui had only this hundred yuan in his hand, he would never take it out.It is said that good intentions have good rewards, but where the good rewards are is unknown, and no one can touch them and see them, let alone when they will come.And the misery of life is present.With only one hundred yuan, if you use it to save others, then you will probably be the one who starves to death. It is not a question of whether it is worthwhile to exchange your own life for the lives of others.What about the rest of the family?No matter how grateful the rescued person is, he still has his family and his responsibility. He must put his family first, and only take care of other people's family when there is extra, even if this other person is someone who saved his life .It cannot be blamed for the selfishness of human nature, it can only be said that everyone has everyone's responsibility.
The situation is different now. Chen Minghui has just made [-] yuan, which is net profit. It won't affect anything if he takes out [-] yuan, but it may save a life.But if he was asked to take more, he would not agree.The tuition fees for him and Qian Yu are still astronomical, and it is not known whether they can make up enough.Let him take out all his property to save a stranger, so what will he and Qian Yu do?Without being able to read, their lives may go in another direction, and it may be a completely dark future.
Is it necessary to exchange the bright future they can see for the possibility that a stranger will not know whether he can survive?
Or a person with such a noble character is no different from being respected, but Chen Minghui is not such a person.
With those experiences in his previous life, and seeing too many tricks and conspiracies, even if he can't become a desperate person, he can't become so noble and selfless.
It's not his good luck to live this life again, but God's pity for Qian Yu, he just came to compensate Qian Yu for a carefree life.
The doctor reacted first, "One hundred yuan may not be enough, but it is better than nothing. You pay it first, and I will give him medicine. When the police come, we will see what the police mean."
"Okay." 100 yuan is the bottom line, no matter how much he will not take it.This old man is not someone of his, let alone his responsibility alone.Even crowdfunding, the money he put out was quite a lot.
Chen Minghui stood up holding the wall, his legs were still a little weak, and slowly moved to pay the fee.
When he came back with the receipt, the police had already arrived, and the four men had already explained everything clearly.
The police are helpless, they have encountered too many such things and dealt with them too much, and most of them can't find their families in the end.
One of the men saw that the police had nothing to do, so he thought about quitting. He was afraid that if he stayed for a while, the police would force them to pay.He doesn't have a hundred yuan to pay. There are four children in the family, three boys and one daughter. With his monthly salary of tens of yuan, life is very tight.His family was reluctant to eat meat from the factory, so they secretly sold it for food.
The man wrapped his coat tightly, his expression was a little nervous, and he said cowardly as if he was afraid that the police would not let him go: "Well, if there's nothing else, I'll leave first, I still have something to do at home."
This person was not a family member of the old man, but he was just a kind person. The police naturally had no reason to detain him, so they nodded and said, "Leave me an address, and I will ask you if I have anything in the future, so you can leave."
"The address..." The man's eyes fluttered, and he obviously didn't want to stay.He didn't want to stick to someone who couldn't be photographed just because of a good intention.
Seeing him like this, the police knew what he was thinking, and explained: "The main reason is that I am afraid that the old man's family members will find them in the future and ask you about today's events. Or the family members want to thank them, and there is nowhere to look for them. But these two Neither of these situations is very likely, and it is very likely that the elderly will not be able to find their family members, which is just a routine."
The man left his address and left.
The others followed suit, and were about to speak when the little nurse at the front came out with a small note.
She said to the police with surprise on her face, "It was found in the inner pocket of the old man's jacket. It was a small note with an address and a phone number on it. It should belong to the old man's family."
Everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and even the policeman laughed in surprise.
"Great, I'll get in touch right away. It seems that this is an old man who has been separated from his family." The policeman left happily, and the rescuers who were going to leave were unwilling to leave.
I heard that the old man's address has a phone number. If someone can install a phone these days, what kind of family must it be?Such people can eat whatever they can leak out of their fingers.
Several men squatted on the ground silently, secretly excited.
After a while, the policeman came back and said beamingly: "I got in touch, and the person will be there right away. If there is any illness, I will treat it first, and it will not cost a penny."
Chen Minghui didn't leave because of the family, but simply waited for the family to arrive and pay the money he had paid in advance.
Unexpectedly, what was waiting was an acquaintance - Manager Ma of the department store.
I don't know what the policeman said to Manager Ma on the phone. The policeman took Chen Minghui and just introduced him, but Manager Ma threw a punch at Chen Minghui.
"Good boy, what are you doing for me? What's the point of taking revenge on an old man?" Manager Ma was anxious, and the phone signal was not good, so he couldn't hear clearly. Now when he saw the police dragging Chen Minghui, he thought It was Chen Minghui who took revenge on the old man and was arrested by the police.
It's also Chen Minghui's rascal spirit, he really doesn't look like a good person when he doesn't restrain himself.
Fortunately, Chen Minghui was very skilled. When Manager Ma came over with his punch, the policeman hadn't reacted yet. He reacted first, caught the man's fist, turned his hand and cut it, twisted the man's hands behind his back, and kicked him. On his calf, he pushed the person back to the ground.
Mrs. Ma rushed forward immediately and screamed: "What are you doing, you dare to commit murder in front of the police, and you police don't care."
The policeman felt his brain hurt, pointed at Chen Minghui and said, "I told you what's wrong with your family. This kid saved the life of your old man. If you don't want to thank him with nice words, you beat him up as soon as you meet him. What's the point? Could it be that saving your family made a mistake?"
Manager Ma poked his neck, "Didn't he kidnap the old man for revenge?"
"What kind of hostage and revenge? He is saving people! Your old man is grateful to him, if not for him, he would have died a long time ago."
The few men who were helping to save the person at the side also rushed forward to explain, "This little brother ran for more than five miles with the old man on his back, and he was exhausted and paralyzed here."
"When the old man first arrived, his condition was extremely urgent. Nurses and doctors urged him to pay the fee, saying that if he did not pay the fee, he would not be given treatment. If he was delayed for a minute, he would die. It was the little brother who took out the only one hundred yuan left in his pocket to pay in advance. Medical expenses. Without the little brother’s money, the old man would have disappeared by now, and your family members can collect the body directly when they arrive.”
The more they talked, the more they exaggerated, just to highlight their life-saving grace, and to make this seemingly rich family appreciate them, how meaningful it is.
Manager Ma also roughly understood at this time, and his face changed from anger to embarrassment.Seeing that the misunderstanding was clear, Chen Minghui let him go.
Madam Ma blushed and said shamelessly: "Look at this incident, I'm really sorry for you, my old horse is a quick-tempered person, don't be as knowledgeable as him."
Chen Minghui wanted to say it's okay, just give him the money he paid in advance, but he opened his mouth and coughed.
"What's the matter? Why is your face flushing, child? Do you have a fever? Nurse, come here and have a look." Mrs. Ma hurried to call the nurse, and Manager Ma hurried to pay his old man's hospitalization fee.
Back at the nurse station, I heard my wife yelling, "Oh my God, 39 degrees two, how can you bear it, such a high degree, no wonder your face is so red, and you keep coughing, you are not afraid of pneumonia? What, I’m taking paracetamol, how can I take it seriously, give this child an infusion.”
Immediately afterwards, a young girl's voice followed and said: "This child should have no money, maybe the [-] will be paid to your elderly. This child is also kind-hearted, and he is sick with some money." You are reluctant to get an injection, but you can give all your property to a completely stranger old man, your family has met a good person, you should thank this child very much."
Ma Chaoyue heard it outside the nurse's station, blushing, thinking that he had made things difficult for this child before, but this child saved his old man.I don't know how difficult this child's life is. He came out to ask for a living at a young age, and he was reluctant to get an injection when he had a fever like this. It can be seen that he is short of money, but he has cut off his child's money.Ma Chaoyue's character was not that bad, and Chen Minghui had saved his old man at this time, so he was so guilty that his conscience was on fire, and he hurriedly opened the door and went in.
As soon as Mrs. Ma saw Ma Chaoyue, she said, "Hurry up and return the one hundred yuan that the child paid in advance to the other child, and pay some hospitalization fees for the child. The child has a high fever of 39 degrees. It must not be pneumonia."
"Yes, yes, I'll do it now." Ma Chaoyue turned around and walked out again. Chen Minghui wanted to stop him and say no, but he coughed as soon as he opened his mouth, and he was lying on the hospital bed under the pressure of Mrs. Ma.
I don't know if it's a psychological effect. I don't know that Chen Minghui can still stand up when his fever is so severe. Now that he knows it, his whole body feels weak and his whole body has no strength.
The nurse first gave him a buttock injection, and then gave him an IV drip. Chen Minghui fell into a drowsy sleep.
In the dream, it was not practical, and I dreamed of the previous life.In a sea of flames, he saw Qian Yu, not the vicissitudes of the previous life, but the immature cheeks of a young man in this life, looking at him through the fire, calling his name.
"Qian Yu, Xiaoyu..." Chen Minghui shouted, and he woke up suddenly.A shadow beside the bed moved, and then a female voice sounded.
"Son, are you awake?" It was Mrs. Ma.
"Yeah." Chen Minghui looked up at the window, the sky was slightly bright, it was about four or five o'clock, and he had slept for so long. "You've been here to take care of me? Thank you."
Mrs. Ma said: "What's the matter, I should thank you for saving my old man. Originally, this old man had no reason for you, and you are in such a situation. You are sick and are reluctant to take money for medical treatment, but at that time If you can take out the money to pay the hospitalization fee for my elderly, our family should thank you."
Chen Minghui didn't explain that he still had money in his pocket, and the reason why he didn't get an injection was because he thought he didn't have such a serious fever and thought it was just a common cold.
At this time, Ma Chaoyue pushed the door open and came in. Seeing Chen Minghui wake up, he strode in, "You are awake, I bought porridge and soy milk, you can eat some."
Chen Minghui was not too polite with Ma Chaoyue. He is sick now, and he has not eaten or drank well in the past few days. Now he really needs to eat something to recover his strength as soon as possible.
"By the way, your name was Xiaoyu just now, who is Xiaoyu? Your date?" Mrs. Ma spoke up.
I have to say that Mrs. Ma is telling the truth, but it is a pity that she is too unfriendly to homosexuals at this time. Anyone who dares to admit that he is gay may be arrested as a mental patient at any time. In order not to cause trouble, Chen Minghui said: "I am a younger brother."
"Oh, then you brothers have a good relationship. You kept calling him by his name when you fell asleep." Mrs. Ma laughed softly.
Thinking of Qian Yu, Chen Minghui's eyes softened, "There are only two of us left in the family, and our relationship is indeed much better than that of ordinary brothers."
Madam Ma was taken aback, and subconsciously asked, "Where are your parents?"
Chen Minghui lowered his eyelids and said calmly: "I passed away when I was a child, and my grandfather was left to lead me through. The first two years were gone, and only my brother and I were left in the family."
Madam Ma felt a pain in her heart, such a small child...
"Then you came here to join relatives?"
"No, I sold the last old house in my family. I want to come here and do some business to earn some money for my brother and I to study."
Chen Minghui said it calmly, as if the matter was irrelevant, but Mrs. Ma couldn't take it anymore, and she couldn't help crying.While crying, she turned her head and thumped Ma Chaochao, "Look at what you are doing. This is a human affair. This child is so hard, you can't help him. Ma Chaochao, when did you become such a person? You are so heartless. I won't live with you, you have a bad conscience..." Mrs. Ma cried and scolded, scolded and beat.
Ma Chaoyue didn't dare to hide, so he just stood up. At this time, he was also guilty, and explained weakly, "Xiaohong, listen to me, I really haven't done anything with conscience, just this child I was wrong, but I really didn't know the situation of this child at the time. I was really in a bad mood that day, and you also know that my dad just left that day, and I was in trouble, and the leader criticized me for not being able to sell the fabric, and the backlog In a warehouse, the hatchbacks collided with each other, and Zhao Pei added fuel and vinegar to me and said a lot of things, so I would drive you away. "
"Hey, you can do this even if it's not like this? Ma Chaoyue, it's hard money for people to make money in business. Why don't you let people earn it! The country allows it, what right do you have to disallow it? You say Say, do you usually bully others like this, Ma Chaoyue, you are such a big official..."
Ma Chaoyue had no choice but to swear: "That's the only thing, I'm really devastated that day." Seeing that Mrs. Ma was still scolding him, Ma Chaoyue hurriedly said: "No matter what, this is all my fault. Will make amends and admit mistakes."
As he spoke, he bowed ninety degrees to Chen Minghui and said, "I'm sorry, I really got caught up at the same time, and I didn't control my temper for a while. I'm really not like this. I'm sorry, little brother, and I will definitely make up for your loss."
Chen Minghui shook his head, "No, just let me go back and buy the goods."
Mrs. Ma said: "This is for sure, isn't it?"
After not hearing Manager Ma's reply for a long time, Mrs. Ma turned to look at him, and saw Manager Ma frowning deeply.Madam Ma suddenly became angry, "Why, you still don't agree?"
Ma Chaoyue quickly explained: "No, I just think the profit of this toy is too small. After all the tossing and tossing, the profit of 400 yuan is exhausted, and it is not enough to do anything. Little brother, have you ever thought about doing some other business? .”
Chen Minghui frowned, and looked up, "I thought about it, but I don't have enough capital."
Manager Ma sighed, "There's really nothing you can do with 100 yuan."
Chen Minghui thought a lot in the blink of an eye, for example, he did have some money in his hand, but he didn't take it out when he saved people. Would Manager Ma have any ideas?But if he still doesn't make a solid statement at this time, if Manager Ma is really willing to help him, maybe he can turn around in one fell swoop.Besides, looking at the performance of Manager Ma and his wife, Mr. Ma should be out of danger, otherwise the two of them wouldn't have stayed with him.
Chen Minghui stared at Manager Ma and Mrs. Ma for a long time, and finally decided to believe in his two lifetimes of insight, and said frankly, "I still have some money in my hand."
Ma Chao asked subconsciously, "How much?"
"More than 900."
Ma Chaoyue didn't think about other things, but heaved a sigh of relief, "That's enough, we can do some other business."
Seeing that the two of them were about to talk, Madam Ma stood up, "You guys are chatting, I'll go see Dad."
Ma Chaoyue said: "You go, the eldest brother and sister-in-law are guarding there, I will take care of you here, if the old man wakes up, you can call me."
"Okay." Madam Ma agreed and left.
Ma Chaoyue moved a stool and sat on the head of Chen Minghui's bed, and talked to him in detail.Chen Minghui was on the floor where there were few inpatients, and he was the only one in this ward, so the two of them could talk freely.
"I have a friend who makes adult clothing, that is, he can make it with the fabric, and he can buy it in his shop. At this time, I see what flare pants woolen coat and striped sailor suit are in his shop. Clothing like this sells very well, as well as men’s suits. I think you can buy some of these, but don’t sell them in Haishi. Locals here in Haishi can find these long-established shops. I don’t want to buy street stalls. You can take it far away, and I don’t need to go too far, just go to a neighboring province, but it may be a bit risky.”
Chen Minghui understood what Ma Chaoyue meant. Although he was allowed to do business at this time, the various regulations and norms about the business were not clear, especially in the first few years, what they sold was speculative. Now no one knows whether what they sell is speculative or not.
But Chen Minghui knew that it was not counted, not only was it not counted, but in another year, even the cloth ticket would be cancelled.Because the backlog of fabrics across the country is too much, the inventory is too large, and the country has no way to deal with it. The central government can only stop the distribution of tickets urgently.Even at this time, the cloth ticket has been printed for the next three years, but the productivity has increased, and the cloth has been piled up in the warehouse and even moldy. However, because the people can't afford the cloth ticket, they really have no choice but to stop it urgently.
After that, the clothing business will usher in its real spring.
"I think this is very feasible. I also have a friend who makes handmade leather shoes. You can also sell leather shoes from him. With my face, the price will definitely not be high. The profit margin is large, but it is a bit risky. I don’t know you Dare you?"
Chen Minghui smiled, "I can't even afford to eat, so why not dare. Uncle Ma, just help out. If it really happens, don't worry, I will never expose you and your friends. People are very stubborn, even if they beat me to death, I don’t want to say it, and no one can force me to say it.”
Ma Chaoyue said with a smile: "My boy, you dare to go out alone, you have some guts. You are recuperating here. When you don't have a fever, I will take you to my friend right away."
Chen Minghui nodded, obviously he had no appetite, but he forced himself to eat more.He must get better as soon as possible, and must not be sick at this time.
Seeing Chen Minghui gulping down food, Ma Chaoyue was also hungry, so he lowered his head and ate his portion.
Maybe Chen Minghui has a good physique, maybe he forced himself to eat and rest, anyway, after three days, his fever really subsided, and the hospital spent 58 yuan and seven cents on him in these three days, Chen Minghui gritted his teeth in distress, but he finally found a more profitable one He is not too painful.
Chen Minghui visited Mr. Ma's ward when he was free these few days. Mr. Ma woke up and was out of danger, but still needs to be hospitalized for observation.According to the doctor, it was a sudden cerebral hemorrhage. Fortunately, it was delivered in time, and Chen Minghui was willing to help pay the hospitalization fee. This saved his life, otherwise, most of them would have died.Therefore, Ma Chaoyue is even more grateful to Chen Minghui, and has a completely benefactor attitude towards Chen Minghui.
This day, Chen Minghui was discharged from the hospital. Before he left, he came to the ward again to see Mr. Ma. The old man was already awake, but he didn't know anyone, and he only stared wide-eyed.But this also made Ma Chaoyue's family very happy.
The two were talking in the ward, when suddenly the door of the ward was pushed open, and a man in shabby clothes walked in.
The way this man was dressed was really out of tune with the relatives of the Ma family. The brothers of the Ma family were all quite capable and lived a good life, and none of them was so disgraceful.At first, Chen Minghui thought it might be a distant relative, but as soon as the man opened his mouth, Chen Minghui immediately knew who he was.
"That Mr. Ma." The man smiled obsequiously: "I was one of the people who saved Mr. Ma's life that day. Later, I left suddenly because of some urgent matters at home, but I also contributed at that time."
Chen Minghui had already recognized that this was the man who thought that Mr. Ma was a homeless man who couldn't afford the hospital bill, and pretended to leave before the police forced them to donate money.
The man continued to smile flatteringly, "I heard that those who saved Master Ma back then were each given a thank you fee of three yuan. Look, mine..."
It turned out that this person heard about the thank you fee by accident, and came here to ask for the money.
Not only was Chen Minghui speechless, he really didn't know what to say to this kind of person.He thought that with Ma Chaoyue's temper, he might not give it up, but he didn't expect that although Ma Chaoyue hated men's behavior, he turned his head and asked Chen Minghui: "At the beginning, the police said that there were five people including you, and one of them left. Is it him?"
The man took a closer look and saw that the child who saved people was standing in front of him, and he was overjoyed, "It's me, did you forget that I helped you hold the old man's butt? If I hadn't helped you along the way, the old man How can you carry it so securely, if you fall, you won’t be able to save it.”
Chen Minghui had recognized him a long time ago, but he looked down on the man's behavior, but it was undeniable that he had indeed participated in saving people. Chen Minghui would never deny what the man had done just because of his displeasure. He just nodded and didn't say hello to the man.
Ma Chaoyue didn't say anything, just took out the money and handed it to him, the man took it and nodded and bowed, "Thank you, thank you Mr. Ma, you are a good man, and Master Ma will be safe."
Ma Chaoyue frowned and said, "Thank you for saving the old man. If there is nothing wrong, please go back first. The doctor said that the old man needs to rest."
The man took the money and said happily: "Then I won't bother you, see you later."
"Goodbye." Ma Chaoyue also said.
After the man left, Chen Minghui said: "We were the five who saved people back then, and there will be no more. Now you have seen them all. The others are all liars. Don't be fooled."
Ma Chaoyue said: "No, I inquired about it at the beginning, and I knew that there were five people who saved people. I found this one myself, otherwise I would have found it too."
Chen Minghui nodded, as long as he wasn't fooled.
Suddenly Mrs. Ma wiped her tears and said: "The reason why we must give the thank you fee is because it is not easy for Dad to raise the old Ma and his brothers, especially not easy. At that time, the seven boys in the family did not starve to death. Growing up, the old man suffered a lot. In the most difficult years, the old man ate the roots of the tree and saved the food for the children."
Ma Chaoyue didn't know what he thought of, and his eye circles were red, "Xiaohui, you don't know, in the most difficult years, we couldn't eat at home, and our brothers almost starved to death."
"I remember it very clearly. One day, we suddenly made broth at home, and our brothers' eyes turned green. My dad said it was a rabbit picked up outside, and let us eat it secretly. Our brothers were so greedy, I ate it, and persuaded my dad to eat it. My dad also ate it for our peace of mind. We drank all the soup in a pot. It was the first meal after being hungry for ten days or more. I drank too much soup, got up at night to go to the bathroom, accidentally touched my dad's leg, my dad cried out in pain, I looked down, there was blood on his leg, and remembered that something was wrong with his walking in the afternoon, he said he was going up a mountain He was injured while picking up rabbits, he didn’t notice anything at that time, but now he realized something was wrong, went to take off his pants, and found that his leg was missing...a piece..."
Ma Chaoyue couldn't go on talking, a seven-foot man wept bitterly, mourning choked up.
"Since then, our brothers have sworn that we will treat the old man well in this life. That's why I was so anxious when my dad suddenly disappeared. I did things too much. I didn't expect to cause so much harm to Xiaohui. Really. very sorry."
"Uncle Ma, it's all in the past. If the old man survives a catastrophe, he will have future blessings." Chen Minghui's voice became hoarse again.Father's love is like a mountain, always forbearing and deep.
In this world, there are like Li Cui who sell their children to be their own parents, and there are also like Master Ma who don't want their own lives, but want their children to live.
Ma Chaoyue wiped away his tears, "Stop talking, it's all over, it's all over."
"Go, take you to my friend's place, and let you make a business today." Ma Chaoyue swallowed back his tears, "I know you are in a hurry to spend money, let's seize all the time and race against time."
Ma Chaoyue took Chen Minghui out of the ward, and the two went down to the first floor. Just as they were about to walk out of the hospital gate, someone suddenly called out behind Ma Chaoyue, "Manager Ma?"
Ma Chaoyue turned his head, it was Fan Chunjuan from the department store.
Ma Chaoyue said: "A few days ago, you asked for a lie and said that your son was sick and hospitalized, and he was also treated in this hospital."
Fan Chunjuan nodded, "I don't know who you are coming to see, Manager Ma?"
Manager Ma smiled and said: "It's my father. The old man is getting old and has some senile diseases. Fortunately, he is fine now."
"That's good." Fan Chunjuan followed.At this time, she finally saw who the boy standing beside Ma Chaoyue was, her eyes widened immediately, and she subconsciously said in disbelief, "Manager Ma, do you know this kid?"
Manager Ma laughed loudly without explaining, "Yes, I was joking around before. My relative's child likes business matters. His family disagrees with him doing business, so I will punish him."
After all, businessmen are not in business at this time, and are easily looked down upon by others. Manager Ma no longer wants Chen Minghui to follow the path of a department store, so he defends him, and he does not want more people to know his business status, lest he People look down upon.
Knowing his kindness, Chen Minghui acquiesced.
Only then did Fan Chunjuan relax her hanging heart, "That's good. During this period of time, I have been worrying about this child, thinking that this child is in business to make money to support his family, how can he live without this source of income. I had already asked the toy manufacturer, and they agreed that he would go directly to buy the goods. Unexpectedly, that afternoon, my family suddenly said that my son had a high fever and was hospitalized with pneumonia. He ran over as soon as he was in a hurry to ask for leave. He also forgot the agreement with the child. When I remembered it, it was several days later. I hurried back to work and found out that the kid had indeed visited me and asked for my home address. But for safety reasons, our colleagues in the building did not give it to him. When I left, I was afraid that the child would go again, so I specifically asked the child to give him the address if he asked again. I didn’t expect that the child never came again. I have been thinking about it all the time, and I feel relieved to see him today.”
Chen Minghui's heart warmed, and knowing the reason, he said sincerely: "Thank you, Aunt Fan, for making you anxious during this time."
Fan Chunjuan waved her hands again and again, "It's okay, as long as you are good." At the same time, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart, that Zhao Pei went all the way to please people, but in the end he didn't know that Manager Ma and this child were so close, and he didn't know that he accidentally offended people. When something happens, I'm afraid Manager Ma will never care about that little relationship.This Zhao Pei's thousands of calculations have come to nothing.People, after all, you have to be worthy of your conscience.
The three of them chatted for a few more words before parting ways. On the way, Ma Chaoyue said, "Fan Chunjuan is a nice person. She told the truth. Her son was admitted to the hospital suddenly with pneumonia that day. She asked me to ask for leave temporarily."
"I see. I will go and see her when I have a chance in a few days."
Ma Chaoyue smiled and said, "There's no need to be in a hurry. Anyway, she can't run away to work with me. The most important thing for you now is to take care of yourself first, and then talk about other things when you have spare money. As for Fan Chunjuan, it's for your sake." I will take care of her, and she is not short of that for the time being, let's talk about it later when I have a chance."
Chen Minghui thought for a while and said, "That's fine."
Ma Chaoyue drove people to his friend's small shop on a bicycle. The small shop was located in a very hidden location and the space was small. There was only one sewing machine, and behind it were some ready-made garments. There was not a single piece of fabric in the shop.
If Ma Chaoyue hadn't brought him here, he would never have come to this kind of shop.
Seeing Ma Chaoyue, the shopkeeper greeted them very enthusiastically on Thursday and poured tea for both of them.
"Beyond, why do you have so much time to come here today? Also, who does this kid belong to? Is there a date? He is so handsome."
"You have a good eye." Ma Chaoyue laughed, and his attitude was very familiar. He pushed Chen Minghui forward and introduced: "This is a relative's child who is very close to my hometown. He is my nephew. You know that this year Life is hard for a month, why don't you come out of your hometown and join me, planning to do some business?"
"Are you doing business?" The shopkeeper said meaningfully on Thursday, and then looked at Ma Chaoyue and smiled.
Ma Chaoyue slapped Thursday boldly, "Say it bluntly, boy, don't come with me, I don't know you yet, tell me, how many pieces of fabric do you want this time, just ask my nephew Now that the clothes are ready, you don’t need any fabrics.”
The ready-to-wear shop opened on Thursday mainly makes clothes for others. Most people get the fabrics themselves. They make styles for them and earn handwork fees.This is because the fabrics at this time need fabric tickets, and it is absolutely impossible to open a clothing store like the future generations with the fabric tickets in the hands of individuals.But there are only a few ready-made clothes hanging in the shop, so it's no big deal to attract customers to come here to make clothes.This is also the time since Chen Minghui came in, only a few pieces of ready-made clothes were seen on the wall of this shop, but no fabrics were seen.
But this is only on the surface. Since the reform and opening up, the higher authorities have allowed business, and Thursday's brain has come alive.In the beginning, it was absolutely standard, that is, to make ready-made clothes for people to earn a handcraft fee, and then sell the cloth or ready-made clothes when we can get the fabric.
The reason is that productivity has improved, and fabrics have been mass-produced, but the number of fabric tickets issued is limited. As a result, even if ordinary people want to buy fabrics with money in their hands, they can’t buy them without tickets. If you don't go out, some of them even appear moldy and damp.
The director of the fabric factory watched the things the workers worked hard to produce go to waste, and because the fabrics could not be sold, the workers had not been paid their wages for half a year, and the elderly and children of the workers’ families could not eat. The days after resignation were not good, and the factory manager was anxious, so anxious that his mouth was full of bubbles.
At the same time, Ma Chaoyue of the department store was also facing this situation. He put pressure from above and urged from below, so the two got together to discuss for a long time, and finally they really came up with a regulation.
That is to sell the moldy and damp fabrics piled up in the factory to the emerging clothing stores outside. As for the fabric tickets, it doesn’t matter if you don’t have them for the time being. in arrears.These workers are just waiting for money to pay wages to support their families.
The reason why the factory director and Ma Chaoyue dared to do this is because they have some brains.When the two sat together to study, they considered the current situation. Faced with the situation of a large backlog of fabrics all over the country, the upper management had already held meetings from time to time to study solutions.Finally, judging from the reform and opening up market in recent years, it is likely that nine times out of ten, the cloth ticket will be canceled in the end, and the cloth will be allowed to be privately owned.Then, the cloth ticket owed to the factory outside will be solved easily.
There is no lack of people with active minds in any age. In fact, in January of the next year, the higher authorities really banned the distribution of tickets across the country.But at this time, neither the factory manager nor Manager Ma knew that they were taking great risks in making this decision.
On the same day, a staff meeting was called, and the idea was explained to all the staff, to see what the big guys mean.At the same time, he proposed that if there is an accident in the future, the responsible factory manager will be fully responsible, but all employees should be responsible for the living expenses of the factory manager's family members.After calculating the workers, there are 40 of them, and the average share of the number of elderly and children is not enough.
