Qi Renshu looked at the embarrassed Si Chen up and down, couldn't help but frown, raised his hand, and pushed up his black-rimmed glasses.

He then looked at the toll collector who kept looking around, looking uneasy, and the nurse Xiao Zhao, who was so surprised that he couldn't speak.

Vaguely, Qi Renshu had the answer in his heart:

"Si Chen, the mother of triplets that Xiao Zhao mentioned is your daughter-in-law Yan Lixia, right?"

"Well, it's Lixia, my second uncle." Si Chen was anxious and excited at the moment:

"She is having a difficult delivery. Second aunt, please save Li Xia quickly. If it's too late, I'm afraid something might happen."

"The beginning of summer?!" Si Xianglan suddenly raised her voice and it was unbelievable:

"Yes, it's Lixia? Come on! Let me go and have a look!"

At that moment, Si Xianglan couldn't care about anything, and took Nurse Xiao Zhao with her and trotted all the way to the obstetrics and gynecology department.

Even if you are unhappy on a daily basis, in the face of life and death, it is nothing but a trivial matter.

Qi Renshu looked at Si Chen's hand. The valuables he was holding were partially exposed from between his fingers.

Thinking about Si Chen's usual behavior, he probably knew deep down in his heart that he couldn't afford the medical bills.

Suddenly, alarm bells rang in Qi Renshu's heart!

Si Chen has lived a lifetime, so of course he understands Qi Renshu's expression.

"I will definitely pay the medical bills!" Si Chen went straight to the point, with nothing to hide:

"You are the dean, but I will not ask you to do anything excessive. After all, this is a public institution."

As soon as these words came out, Qi Renshu was a little surprised. Does this bastard understand this truth?

"Second uncle, I just hope you can give me some time to breathe. As soon as daybreak, I will find a way to raise money. I will definitely pay all the hospital bills!"

Qi Renshu is a person who values ​​his reputation. In front of his subordinates, he does not want to get too entangled with Si Chen.

When word spread, people thought he was inhumane and treated his nephew harshly at critical moments.

"Si Chen, my uncle knows that you are in difficulty, but the rules of the hospital are rules, and my uncle cannot take the lead in breaking them."

Qi Renshu wanted to protect his reputation and ensure that Si Chen did not act rogue on the spot, so he could only take the person away from the scene first:

"Let's do this. My uncle will lend you the money first, and then you can pay it back to me after you meet your urgent needs."

Si Chen was stunned, he really didn't mean that!

"Let's go, come with me to your house and get some money." Qi Renshu focused on saving himself, turned around, and went to put on his raincoat.

Si Chen wanted to say something, but out of the corner of his eye he caught sight of the toll collector's eyes burning with the fire of gossip, and he suddenly understood.

My second uncle is a decent man. At this time, I cannot hold him back.

Si Chen quickly followed.

"Put on the raincoat." Qi Renshu said with a straight face, handing Si Xianglan's raincoat to Si Chen.

"It's okay, we're all wet anyway." Si Chen smiled coquettishly.

"Put it on." Qi Renshu put the raincoat on him.

Si Chen:......-_-||

The second uncle was an old-fashioned intellectual with a cold face and a warm heart. Si Chen recognized him!

The family building of the county hospital is just behind it, only 500 meters away.

All the single-room bungalows are occupied by hospital employees.

Qi Renshu and his wife both have room quotas, so they live in a single room and their son lives in the single room next door.

After Si Chen followed Qi Renshu into the door, the other party first pulled the light cord on the right wall and turned on the light.

Then, I found him a pair of clean clothes:

"This belongs to your cousin, put it on first."

Si Chen felt warm in his heart and quickly took it over and said thanks:

"Hey, okay, thank you, uncle."

In the past, he was quite afraid of this second uncle. He was upright, old-fashioned and serious. He wore black-rimmed glasses and always had his eyebrows furrowed into the Chinese character "Sichuan". He looked very much like a dean.

In his previous life, Si Chen did a lot of business. What kind of people have he not seen?

On the contrary, people like Qi Renshu are upright, strong-willed, and don't have so many bad intentions.

While Si Chen was changing clothes, Qi Renshu walked to the desk by the window, opened the innermost drawer with the key, and took out an envelope at the bottom.

In the envelope was the monthly salary of the couple. In addition to sending money to their son who was in college and daily expenses, the rest was basically saved.

Qi Renshu poured out all the money and counted it carefully. The total was 586.55 yuan.

This is all their family’s savings from the first half of this year.

He put the change into an envelope, put it in its place, and locked the drawer.

There was a thick stack of 10-yuan notes, and I found another envelope, packed it, held it in my hand, and took it over:

"Si Chen, this is five hundred yuan. Your second aunt and I don't have much on hand at the moment. I'll lend it to you first for emergencies."

Si Chen, who had already put on a pair of military green clothes, stood stunned for a moment, really, really?

This was completely beyond his expectation. According to his current character, his second uncle was still willing to lend money?

You know, dual-income families these days are not necessarily very wealthy. www.bǐqυgetν.℃ǒm

Even if the second uncle is the director of the county hospital and the second aunt is the director of the obstetrics and gynecology department, their combined monthly salary is estimated to be less than 500 yuan.

The cousin still has to go to school, and the family still has expenses. Si Chen knows that this money is not a wealthy fund.

What's more, based on his image in the eyes of his second uncle, he probably felt from the bottom of his heart that this money would make him beat a dog like a meat bun and never look back.

Si Chen thought about it again and realized that with his second uncle's character, he must practice what he said.

Seeing that Si Chen didn't respond for a long time, Qi Renshu's eyes flickered and he thought he thought the money was too little and wanted more.

The outspoken Qi Renshu forced the envelope into Si Chen's arms and said in a firm tone:

"Why don't you hurry up and pay the fee? It's too late, and it will delay your wife's surgery. You will regret it!"

Si Chen reacted immediately, and his second uncle was angry.

He quickly caught it with both hands and bowed in thanks: "Second uncle, thank you for your help!"

Qi Renshu was startled and took two steps back. What kind of trick does this kid have?

Si Chen straightened up and said seriously: "Second uncle, I will write you an IOU. The money will be repaid to you within a month!"

Qi Renshu was shocked again. Did he take the wrong medicine? Or was he still drunk?

When he was in a daze, Si Chen had already strode to the desk.

But Si Chen picked up the pen in the pen holder, found a notebook, turned to a blank page, bent down, and wrote the IOU seriously.

Qi Renshu was really shocked!

After a while, he came back to his senses. He walked over in a few steps and looked at the young man writing an IOU seriously under the dim incandescent light. He thought he was dreaming.

His son was not as tall as Si Chen. These khaki pants and white tacky shirt actually looked a bit short on Si Chen.

However, as he looked at this tall figure in a daze, he couldn't help but think of his son.

The two cousins ​​are one month apart, but their destinies are also very different.

His son has been well educated and cared for since he was a child, and is praised by everyone as a good student.

Si Chen had a difficult life. It was not easy for him to be a wild child who grew up eating food from hundreds of families and wearing clothes from hundreds of families.

Qi Renshu felt compassion and felt a little regretful. He was an elder, so why should he distrust a junior so much?

His eyes under his black-rimmed glasses couldn't help but twinkle.

In one minute, Si Chen wrote the IOU:

Si Chen (ID card number), a villager of Sijia Village, borrowed 500 yuan from Qi Renshu and promised to repay it within one month. This document is hereby issued as evidence.

Borrower: Si Chen

Date: June 21, 1988

There happened to be ink pad on the table. Si Chen's thumb was dipped in the ink pad and his fingerprint was pressed on the signature area.
