Chapter 256: Can’t Go Back

After treating the wound and giving him an IV drip, he was sent to the general ward.

Because the back had just been treated, in order to prevent the wound from getting infected, he had to lie on the bed.

Gu Zixi hadn't woken up yet. Gu Zhaolin stood aside and didn't know what to say. He suddenly realized his immaturity.

The eldest brother gave him such an easy job. If the eldest brother didn't let him, this job would have nothing to do with him.

The eldest brother exchanged his pain for his comfort, but he never considered the eldest brother.

Every time I see the eldest brother, he still looks like a child. I always hope that the eldest brother will take care of me, love me, and coax me.

No wonder everyone in the family said that I should grow up.

Xia Zhi looked at Gu Zixi's appearance and sighed.

This eldest brother is different from what she imagined. He is a perseverant person. Even if he is treated so unfairly, he can grit his teeth and endure it.

She just talked to Li Sangou for a long time before she knew that Gu Zixi was deliberately sent to the quarry by the production team leader because the production team leader's daughter failed to court him.

In the quarry, he was forced to bow his head. As long as he agreed to marry the daughter of the production team leader, the production team leader could transfer him back to the village.

He could be a scorekeeper.

The work of a scorekeeper is not only easy, but also gives high work points.

In fact, many people envy Gu Zixi for having such good luck.

The daughter of the production team leader is not something that everyone can look up to. Who doesn't want to get rich overnight and have everything immediately after marrying the daughter of the production team leader?

Many people privately said that Gu Zixi was a stubborn donkey.

He was obviously not a laborer, but he had such a stubborn temper.

Many people speculated when Gu Zixi would bow his head?

Xia Zhi looked at his unconscious elder brother and had a different feeling about the Gu family for the first time.

Maybe the Gu family was indifferent and ruthless to him in his previous life, but they didn't do anything cruel to him.

They just didn't care about him. Is that wrong?

No one knows what happened in the middle, but the Gu family has character, which is absolutely correct.

Moreover, the Gu family is very knowledgeable. Apart from Gu Zhaolin, who is an idiot, Gu Zixi and Gu's mother left a very deep impression on her.

The nurse called Gu Zhaolin and Xia Zhi outside,

"Comrade, this is the bill for payment. You should pay the fee quickly, otherwise, we can't keep you in the hospital."

It was also because Gu Zixi was unconscious and in critical condition at the time, so he didn't pay the money and pushed him in for treatment.

Gu Zhaolin took the bill and saw the 30 yuan on it.

For a moment, his face was a little ashamed and angry.

He hated himself even more. Although he was a temporary worker and could only earn 18.5 yuan a month, why didn't he think about saving money?

I heard that other temporary workers could save 15 yuan a month for 18.5 yuan. In addition to giving his parents 5 yuan for food every month, he bought all the rest of the money for delicious food and drinks.

Now, let alone 30 yuan, he can't even take 3 yuan out of his pocket.

But my elder brother is here to rescue...

For the first time, Gu Zhaolin realized how naive, ignorant, stupid and selfish he was.

Just when he was so anxious that his face turned red, a hand reached out and took the bill.

Xia Zhi smiled and said to the nurse,

"Comrade, don't worry, we will go to pay the bill right away."

He walked directly to the payment counter.

He handed in 30 yuan.

Gu Zhaolin stood behind Xia Zhi and felt that he wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

Xia Zhi, who he said was the most cold-blooded and ruthless, the most worthless Xia Zhi, took out money to save his elder brother at the critical moment.

And his younger brother could only stand aside and do nothing.

For the first time, he felt that he was a worthless person.

After Xia Zhi paid the bill, he took the receipt and prepared to go back to give it to the nurse. When he turned around, he saw Gu Zhaolin who was blocking behind him. He coldly bypassed him and went directly upstairs.

Gu Zhaolin followed her and whispered.

"Xia Zhi, I'm sorry. I was sorry to you before, I was so foul-mouthed. Today I'll lend you the money, and I will definitely pay you back."

Xia Zhi didn't say no, since someone is paying her back, of course she will take it.

Their tractor will definitely not be able to go back tonight, it's already dark, and it's easy to get into trouble when walking at night.

Xia Zhi first called the chicken farm and told the factory that they would go back early tomorrow morning.

The factory director was quite relieved about Xia Zhi, and when he heard that they had saved another person, he could only helplessly praise Xia Zhi.

After all, for such good deeds, their factory can also get a certificate of merit, and they can't say that it's wrong for others to save people.

However, Xia Zhi was reminded that even if she and Gu Zhaolin couldn't come back, the driver must go back.

Eggs will be delivered tomorrow.

This is a big event for the commune, and the collective's affairs cannot be delayed.

Xia Zhi agreed repeatedly, and after hanging up the phone, she was a little worried about what to do tonight.

They didn't have a letter of introduction, and they couldn't live in the guesthouse now, and the hospital didn't allow so many people to stay.

First, I took the driver, Master Wang, and Li Sangou to the canteen of the hospital next door to eat. Fortunately, there was still food at this time.

They didn't have the hospital's meal ticket, but there was a small window in the hospital that was open to the public.

I bought three bowls of noodles, and they were noodles with meat, and I also bought six big steamed buns.

People these days have a big appetite, and one bowl of noodles is definitely not enough to fill them up.

Master Wang smiled immediately when he saw the noodles with meat.

Originally, he was full of resentment, blaming them for making him unable to go home tonight, but if he could eat meat, it would calm his resentment to some extent.

In addition, Xia Zhi kept apologizing, and Master Wang felt that he was a little petty.

He even took the initiative to tell Xia Zhi that it was okay, and that he, Gu Zhaolin and Li Sangou could make do in the back of the tractor for one night.

He would go back early tomorrow morning, but Xia Zhi might have to sit in the ward with the patient all night.

After dinner, Xia Zhi bought another bowl of noodles and two steamed buns, and they took the lunch box back.

It was also thanks to Master Wang's habit of putting the lunch box in the back pocket of the tractor when he went out, otherwise, they wouldn't even be able to find a lunch box now.

While Gu Zhaolin was eating, Gu Zixi opened his eyes on the bed.

Gu Zixi felt groggy and felt like he was thrown into a stove, and his back hurt like a knife.

When he opened his eyes, he smelled the smell of disinfectant and saw the snow-white walls.

As a result, he turned around and saw his brother eating there, and Xia Zhi was sitting next to him.

After half an hour of chaos, the doctor smiled and said,

"Fortunately, his inflammation has subsided and his fever has subsided!

Theoretically, he won't have a fever after the infusion tonight. Continue the infusion tomorrow. You should pay attention to the patient at night and don't let his back touch the bed. He has to sleep on his stomach these days. Although it is a bit painful, there is no way. He has to endure it for his wound."

The ward finally became quiet. They were in a large ward with ten people, but there were few people hospitalized at the moment, only three patients.
