Chapter 120: Busy raising a family in a foreign land 120
That night, on the sealed wall at the entrance of the alley, Lu Pingsheng looked at the supplies being lowered in baskets.
In his heart, he cursed the old foreign devil Charles for being so cruel. With such a small amount of stuff, he wouldn't even be able to use a small yellow croaker in the past.
This guy actually asked for three big yellow croakers.
Although he was grumbling in his heart, he was in a very good mood when thinking about the phone call he had just received.
Naturally, someone would beg to return the money he lost.
Little Jiangsu and Little Nanjing, father and son, looked at a pile of things with different expressions.
"Mr. Lu, for this little bit of food, you want three small yellow croakers?"
Although Xiao Jiangsu lowered his voice, his tone was full of disbelief.
He worked hard from dawn to dusk selling wontons over the years and only saved up enough to buy a large yellow croaker, which he was going to use for his son to get married.
He wanted three of these worthless things. If he had known earlier, he would have hidden outside the alley and worked as a comprador for Mr. Lu.
"The things are not valuable, so how could valuable things be sent in?" Lu Pingsheng explained to avoid people misunderstanding that things can be bought with money.
Xiao Jiangsu and his son were the helpers that Lu Pingsheng hired to help him move things.
The alley was quiet and there were no lights in the houses on both sides. The three of them went back and forth several times to move the few things into Lu Pingsheng's house, and the blocked alley returned to silence.
Everything that happened just now was shrouded in darkness.
Lu Pingsheng gave two dollars to little Jiangsu, and secretly gave one dollar to little Nanjing.
Xiao Jiangsu was very happy when he got the money. No wonder people in the alley said Mr. Lu was generous. He was indeed generous.
I helped move a few things and was paid two dollars.
"Don't worry, Mr. Lu. My father and I are very tight-lipped. We will sleep till dawn tonight and know nothing."
Lu Pingsheng watched the two people leaving, found what Wei Miao wanted among the supplies in the living room, and knocked on the door of Wei's house.
It was Wei Ada who opened the door. When he saw Lu Pingsheng, he quickly took several steps back:
"Mr. Lu, why are you here? Go back!"
After a day, this honest and simple man already knew what disease his two children had.
I also know why the alley was closed.
While he was feeling anxious, he worked with his eldest daughter to take better care of the two children.
Lu Pingsheng whispered, "Uncle Wei, tell Ah Miao to come out. Here is what she wants."
Wei Ada didn't dare to delay, he turned and went into Wei Ling's room.
After a while, Wei Miao stretched lazily and came out behind Wei Ada.
"A Miao, where do you put the things?" Lu Pingsheng asked, holding the things in his hand.
Wei Miao said: "Put it on the ground, and remember to wash your hands and brush your teeth when you get home."
Lu Pingsheng looked at him and did as he was told without saying anything.
He shouldn't always feel uneasy about the little brat because he is too young. He is a person who was able to save his father from a desperate situation.
The little boy was only a little over ten years old at that time.
"Ah Miao, when you give Ah Ran and Ah Ling the penicillin injection, give them an allergy test."
Wei Miao heard this for the first time and asked, "Why?"
Lu Pingsheng thought for a moment and said:
"Some people may have an allergic reaction to penicillin. First, inject a small amount of penicillin into the inside of A Ling's upper arm."
Seeing the tired expression on Wei Miao's face, Lu Pingsheng slowed down his speech and continued:
"After 20 minutes, observe whether there are any changes at the injection site. If there are no changes, it is negative. If there is a blister, redness, and itching, it is an allergy, which means that penicillin is not suitable."
Wei Miao looked at Lu Pingsheng gratefully and nodded to show that he understood.
After Lu Pingsheng left, Wei Ada closed the door. Wei Miao washed his hands with sulfur soap before taking the things that Lu Pingsheng had left at the door.
"Dad, if you want to move, I will do it myself."
Wei Ada looked at his daughter, who was only as tall as his armpits, and walked towards the eaves with two bags of things in her hands.
The dim light in the yard cast her shadow long.
He felt bitter in his heart and blamed himself for being useless.
Wei Miao didn’t know what this honest man was thinking, and even if she knew she wouldn’t blame him.
This is the way the world is. She was very satisfied with this couple of parents and did not feel that they were a drag or useless.
On the contrary, I feel that it is not easy for them to work hard to earn money and love every child sincerely.
There is no time to deal with these unexpected situations.
They gave her the family love and tolerance she had never had before. She was so grateful that she had no time to blame them.
I just hope that Wei Miao's parents are safe and healthy.
If it weren't for the incident where Wei A's life was hanging by a thread, she would probably be trying to fill her stomach in mediocrity, and then follow the rules of society and die in the end.
Maybe he died in the cold weather last winter, or in this cholera, or maybe in the chaos in the near future?
Anyway, she knew that even if she died, she would continue to live as a human or an animal in another dimension.
Wei Miao put his thoughts aside, found the needle, alcohol and a bottle of penicillin and went to Wei Ling's room.
The little girl's brows were furrowed when she fell asleep, and there were traces of tears at the corners of her eyes.
Wei Miao gently shook her awake.
"Brother, is it dawn yet?" Wei Ling hadn't fallen asleep to begin with, and when she saw her brother's little face, she asked in a muffled voice.
Wei Miao motioned for her to open her mouth and put a piece of candy into her mouth.
"Brother is going to give you an injection. You just need to take a good sleep after that."
Wei Ling felt a little more energetic after eating the candy, and when she heard her elder brother say that she could get better, her eyes lit up and she ignored what her elder brother said about the injection.
Wei Miao quietly observed the inside of Wei Ling's arm, and when there was no reaction, he gave her an injection in the butt.
The dosage is one-third of the clinical data provided by Lu Pingsheng.
"Brother, the injection actually doesn't hurt." Wei Ling lay on the pillow and said to Wei Miao who was retracting the needle.
Wei Miao looked at her cheeks bulging with candy in them, her eyes curved as she smiled at him, and his heart softened.
"Go to sleep, big brother is here to watch over you."
Maybe it was because the candy in her mouth was too sweet, maybe it was because of her brother's gentle words, or maybe it was because of the injection, Wei Ling closed her eyes heavily.
After Wei Miao saw that she was fast asleep, he pulled the light switch, quietly left the room, and walked towards Wei Ran's bedroom.
"Big Dad, if I die, will you be sad? I don't want to be your nephew in the next life. I want you to be my father!" The little boy is naughty and playful on weekdays, but he is actually more mature than anyone else.
Wei Ada looked at his nephew's yellow face under the light and hurriedly coaxed him:
"Okay, you will all be Allah's children in the next life."
Wei Ran didn't know what good thing he was thinking of, and laughed out loud, "Then let big brother be your younger brother, and I will protect you."
Wei Ada said sadly: "Okay, okay, you will be the boss in the next life."
Wei Miao coughed lightly, holding up the syringe in his hand and said:
"I just don't know if this big brother is afraid of injections."
When Wei Ran saw the syringe in Wei Miao's hand, his already sallow expression turned even paler.
"Brother, I'm not the boss anymore, please don't hit me." Wei Ran begged for mercy quickly, his voice not as weak as before.
