Li Zhaokun was sick, so Li He had to go back. Even if his biological father was courting death, he was still his biological father. This was something that couldn't be changed. He said to He Fang, "I'm going back to my hometown."
He still hoped that He Fang could go back to work. The school had no reason to give up on a key teacher like He Fang. They would still accept her again.
He Fang shook her head. "I'll come back after I send you back."
Li He secretly asked Xiao Wei to buy a plane ticket. He specially arranged for it to be in the morning.
He woke up very early. He hadn't woken up this early in a long time. He just packed a few clothes casually. Afraid that he would wake He Fang, he quietly left the house. When he passed by He Fang's room, he saw that the door was closed and he was still asleep.
"You're leaving without brushing your teeth or washing your face?"
"So early." Li He turned around and saw that it was He Fang. He smiled awkwardly.
"Hurry up and brush your teeth and wash your face. Come and have breakfast. It's still early. "He Fang carried a basket of buns and went straight to the central room.
Li He had no choice but to brush his teeth and wash his face quickly.
When they reached the central room, He Fang pushed the bowl of porridge in front of him. "Eat more, or you'll be hungry on the plane."
"Okay." He ate his porridge without saying a word.
"These are your favorite meat buns. Eat more too." He Fang saw that he had already finished two bowls of porridge. She was overjoyed and hoped that he would eat more.
Li He saw that He Fang was holding a military water bottle and was filling it with water. He asked, "What are you filling it with water for?"
"I brought something for you to drink. You still don't look well recently. Drink more water. "
"Then add some tea leaves for me."
He Fang said angrily, "Drink more plain water. It's not good to drink too much tea leaves."
Li He felt helpless. He pushed the bowl away and was about to light a cigarette when He Fang snatched it away.
Li He was a little dissatisfied. "I haven't smoked since I woke up."
He Fang shook her head. "You were still coughing last night. Have you forgotten? I'll give you one when you stop coughing. If you don't cough anymore, I can even light a cigarette for you. "Therefore, she was definitely worried about Li He leaving alone. He really didn't take care of himself.
Li He felt that there was really no fun left. He couldn't smoke, drink, or drink tea. The key was that there were too many things that he couldn't do.
While He Fang was in the kitchen, he hurriedly picked up his bag and rushed out of the house.
He walked out of the alley and was about to hail a taxi at the intersection. As soon as he turned around, he found that He Fang was following him. He Fang proudly waved the ticket in her hand at him.
Li He asked, "When did you buy it?"
"How can you hide it from me?" He Fang snatched the bag from his hand. "The taxi is here. Let's go."
She opened the car door and urged Li He to get in.
"You didn't bring anything?" After getting in the car, Li He realized that she didn't bring any luggage. She only had a water bottle on her back. Without a doubt, Little Wei, this brat, had sold him out.
"I said that I'll be back after I drop you off. Don't worry. I've told Sister Chang to take care of things at home. "
When they reached the airport, He Fang carried her luggage and checked in. Li He's hands were empty, and he looked a little idle.
"I'll take the luggage."
He Fang said, "Hurry up and get on the plane. You haven't recovered yet. We'll talk about it when you're better."
She still insisted that Li He didn't take anything.
After getting on the plane, Li He pretended to sleep and didn't say anything.
He had always thought that He Fang was like this because she had never been in love before, and that was why she had such a strong desire for the love she fantasized about. And everything she did, in his opinion, her love for him was nothing more than a childish trick. He also felt that she had never been sober. She was the one who had allowed herself to indulge in a beautiful, dream-like dream.
He thought that everything would fade away with time. He even thought that He Fang had left once. He put on an expression that said, "This is what I expected." After all, little girls were impatient.
At this moment, Li He wavered. He thought that he was wrong. He Fang was sober, and he was the one who had been intoxicated.
After getting off the plane, they took a taxi to the Provincial City's bus station. He Fang insisted that Li He eat something before leaving, but she changed her mind when she entered the restaurant. She kept saying that it was too dirty and that she wasn't satisfied with the restaurant's hygiene.
Li He said, "Just make do with it. The bus station and train station are all the same. "
"Look after the luggage here and wait for me." With that said, He Fang turned around and ran into an alley, disappearing.
Li He didn't even have a chance to react. However, he was worried about He Fang running around on her own, so he picked up his luggage and chased after her.
He Fang ran through two or three streets before she found a restaurant that satisfied her. She was about to go back and call for Li He, but Li He was already standing behind her with his bag.
She took his bag. "Didn't I tell you to wait for me?"
Li He didn't give the bag to her. "I'm not that weak yet."
The restaurant owner had never seen such a picky customer. He had so many requests. If it weren't for the fact that the lady was pretty and well-mannered, he wouldn't have been willing to serve her.
Li He sighed like the owner. Actually, he had wanted to borrow the restaurant's machine to try the chili, but he had miscalculated. He couldn't remember how long it had been since he had eaten chili.
After eating, they got on the bus and arrived at the county. It was already past three in the afternoon.
He Fang had already untied her trench coat. "It's warmer here."
She had never been here before and was very curious about the customs along the way.
The county hospital was still as dilapidated as Li He remembered. Other than the provincial hospital, the county-level and city-level hospitals were pretty much the same, dilapidated. However, no matter how dilapidated it was, it was still the best hospital in the area and was overcrowded.
Li He didn't know which ward Li Zhaokun was in and wanted to go upstairs to find out. When he went upstairs, he realized that something was wrong. He turned around and realized that He Fang wasn't following him.
He hurriedly went downstairs to look for her. When he went out, he realized that He Fang was negotiating with the tricycle at the entrance.
"Sir, are you going to the bus station?"
"Twenty cents. Get on."
He pulled her over. "What are you doing?"
He Fang smiled. "I'm going back. I dropped you off anyway."
"Tomorrow." Li He suddenly felt upset. No matter what, he was worried about He Fang going back alone. If something happened, he would never be at ease. "I'll find a hotel for you tonight. You can stay there for a few days and wait for me to go back." “
He Fang was about to speak when she saw a woman with a headscarf staring at her and Li He. That woman was walking towards them again.
She elbowed Li He and pointed at the woman. "Hey, why is she always looking in our direction?"
"Mom, why are you here?" Li He saw that it was his mother, Wang Yulan.
"Why are you so thin?" It was impossible for his mother not to recognize her son, but she couldn't believe that her son was so thin. Moreover, there was a pretty girl standing beside him. She didn't dare to acknowledge him. If she scared the girl, her son would hate her to death.
Li He smiled. "It's nothing. It's just that I've been having stomach problems recently and haven't been eating much. I'll be fine after this stage. "
He had already expected his mother's reaction, so he had prepared a ready-made response.
Wang Yulan was facing Li He. She tugged at the corner of his shirt on purpose. Her eyes kept glancing at He Fang, and her face bloomed.
When Li He saw Wang Yulan's expression, he thought that things were going to be bad. However, he still braced himself and introduced He Fang to Wang Yulan. "This is my classmate. She came here to play with me."
"Auntie." He Fang greeted Wang Yulan before she could speak. Her words were appropriate.
Wang Yulan saw that He Fang's eyes were glowing. No matter how clumsy she was, she could still say a few words. "It's windy outside. Go watch a movie. Look, there's a movie theater next to it. "
He Fang was stunned. She didn't know how to respond, but she still smiled and said, "Auntie, we're not cold."
Li He didn't know whether to laugh or cry at his mother's sudden development. Afraid that He Fang would feel awkward, he smiled and said, "Movies are always watched at night. There's no such thing as watching movies during the day."
Just as she was about to continue asking about Li Zhaokun's situation, Wang Yulan interrupted, "Then you guys go have dinner. After dinner, you can go watch a movie."
She had long heard that dating nowadays was all about eating and watching movies. Seeing that her son couldn't find a partner, how could she not be by his side to give him some advice! She had always thought that the reason her son was single was because he was too practical and couldn't keep up with the trend. If he didn't treat a young lady to a movie or a meal, how could a young lady be willing to be with him!
"We've eaten. We're not watching the movie." Li He didn't know how his mother was going to argue with the movie. Before Wang Yulan could interrupt, he quickly asked, "How's Dad?"
Wang Yulan was very dissatisfied with her son's change of topic. She waved her hand and said, "It's fine, it's fine. The doctor said that he got alcohol poisoning! I told your father to stop drinking, but he didn't want to. Look, he got into an accident after drinking too much. "
He Fang looked like she had already understood. Seeing that Li He didn't react for a long time, she then said in a low voice, "He got alcohol poisoning."
Li He slapped his head and asked Wang Yulan, "Did he buy fake wine?"
Wang Yulan nodded. "I don't know where your father bought it, but he became like this after drinking it."
Seeing Wang Yulan like this, Li He knew that Li Zhaokun was definitely fine. It seemed that he had come back for nothing. He couldn't help but feel a little resentful towards Li Long. He cried and cried, but didn't explain the reason.
He looked at He Fang. He Fang smiled and said, "I'll go up and see Uncle."
Wang Yulan said, "It's so dirty up there, and there's a smell. You guys go shopping."
She was afraid that the trouble at home would disgust the young lady, so she naturally didn't want He Fang to go to the hospital.
"Auntie, it's fine." He Fang saw that there was a fruit stall behind her and went up to pick up some fruits.
Wang Yulan was happy and worried at the same time. However, she still took out some money from her thick handkerchief and rushed to give it to the stall owner. She definitely couldn't let the young lady pay for it. No matter how stingy she was, she also knew the principle of return on investment.
Seeing that the two women were about to quarrel over a few cents, Li He was really helpless. He hurriedly took out the money from his pocket and ended the endless quarrel between the two women. When the two women saw that Li He had given them the money, they didn't have any objections.
In fact, neither of them was pretentious. Wang Yulan was stingy, while He Fang was generous. The stingy one was happy to be paid by others, so she definitely wouldn't be pretentious. Saving a cent was a cent. The generous one was even less pretentious. It didn't matter if it was a cent more or a cent less.
Li He was shocked when he entered the hospital ward. There were two rows of six beds in the ward, and all of them were occupied. Not only did he know these six people, but they were all from the same village!
His grandfather, Li Fucheng, was also lying next to him!
His grandmother was pointing at Li Fucheng's head and scolding him incessantly.
Li He finally knew why Li Long cried. This was fucking collective alcohol poisoning!
What was this bastard of a father doing?!
As long as one of them had an accident, his Li family wouldn't have a good life!
Seeing that the people on the bed were all alive and kicking and had happy expressions, he heaved a sigh of relief.
The people in the room were also shocked. Suddenly, a beautiful young lady came in, and she came in with Li Laoer. Li Zhaokun, who never cared about his image, hurriedly put his feet on the pole of the bed into the quilt. He deliberately sat up straight and wiped the bagasse on the corner of his mouth.
He had a good point. He thought highly of himself and cared about his reputation. He never acted in front of his son-in-law or daughter-in-law.
Yang Xuewen had been a son-in-law for so many years. He had always praised his father-in-law and never said anything bad about him. Whenever Li Zhaokun drank too much, he would call him brother. They were really good brothers. Duan Mei had been married into the family for so many years, but she had never gotten angry with Li Zhaokun. Instead, she often bumped into her good-natured mother-in-law, Wang Yulan.
Even Duan Mei's parents were warmly received by Li Zhaokun when they came. If they ate less or drank less, Li Zhaokun would be unhappy. His enthusiasm was something that many people couldn't compare to. On the other hand, Wang Yulan was much more stingy and often became a laughing stock for her in-laws.
Now that his son had brought a young lady here, he had to be generous, not for his son's reputation, but for his own.
Seeing that Li Fucheng was still in a daze, the old lady patted his calf heavily. "You don't even know how to sit properly."
Then, she looked hopefully at Li He. Hurry up and introduce him.
Li He introduced He Fang to the people in the house. He still only said that she was his classmate. The old lady kept circling around He Fang, asking if she wanted to eat fruits and water.
He Fang was not a shy person, so she generously agreed to all of them. When Wang Yulan handed over a green apple, He Fang ate half of it in one bite and kept saying that it was delicious.
Li He couldn't stop sighing. Indeed, life was like a drama, and it all depended on one's acting skills.
Looking at that green apple, he felt jealous for He Fang. It would be strange if it was delicious!
Wang Yulan put quite a lot of brown sugar in the glass of water that she gave to He Fang. When Li He saw He Fang's smiling expression, he was almost fooled and thought that she really liked to drink brown sugar water.
Because of He Fang's arrival, everyone decided to be hospitalized early.
Li He wanted to ask the doctor about the situation, but he met a nurse the moment he left the ward.
The nurse asked loudly, "Are you Erhe?"
Li He patted his head. He couldn't figure out who she was.
Seagate shouted from the ward, "This is Seagate."
Li He suddenly remembered that this was Seagate's eldest daughter. "I'm sorry, we haven't seen each other for many years."
Seagate said, "You're so skinny that I almost couldn't recognize you."
"Maybe my stomach has been acting up recently. I can't eat well." Li He then asked, "Can I be discharged now?"
Seagate laughed softly and said, "I can be discharged long ago."
"Thank you." Li He smiled and nodded. These people were waiting for him to come back and give an explanation. After all, the wine belonged to Li Zhaokun.
His father was indeed a scammer. He actually sold fake wine! How could he do business if he couldn't do it!
