There are no flowers on his face?
What does he mean by staring at me like that?
Fortunately, the people who came to visit him had not stopped since nine o 'clock. This made Chen Baoguo pay less attention to him in the middle.
After the visitors left the ward, Li Fucheng took a deep breath and wanted to call Chen Baoguo outside for a chat. Unexpectedly, Chen Baoguo did not refuse.
Li He naturally had to follow him out to take a look.
"Baoguo, this hospital must have cost a lot, right?" Li Fucheng had his own thoughts. He took out an oiled paper bag from his pocket and said, "I'm the eldest, so I can't be less. I won't ask how much it costs. Just this. What do you think?"
He opened the paper bag, and it was filled with brand new hundred-dollar bills. There was at least thirty thousand yuan in it. Usually, his pocket money was wrapped in a handkerchief, but this time, his wife was afraid that he did not have enough money, so she wrapped another set of money in the oiled paper bag, hoping that it would come in handy.
All these years, Li He had been giving them money every year, thirty or fifty thousand yuan, and he had never stopped. The old couple did not have any big expenses, so they kept the money in their hands. Even if they occasionally spent some money, Li Long, Li Mei, and even Four, Five, and Li Yan knew to be filial. The old couple had never been short of money.
Chen Baoguo raised his eyebrows in surprise. He and his wife had been treated well at work all these years, but due to their social interactions, the family expenses were relatively high. Usually, his wife was in charge of the money, but he knew that they definitely did not have thirty thousand yuan.
He had heard from his niece yesterday that the Li family seemed to be quite rich, but he did not expect that they could take out more than thirty thousand yuan without blinking.
"You're too kind." Even Sun Jianfen was stunned.
This was not three hundred yuan, nor three thousand yuan, but thirty thousand yuan!
Although everyone's living conditions were good, and there were more than ten thousand yuan households, there were definitely not many people who could take out ten thousand yuan to give away!
She looked anxious, and naturally wanted to accept the money on Chen Baoguo's behalf.
"No, it's not a big deal." Chen Baoguo lowered his eyelids and did not take the money.
Li Fucheng insisted, "Old Madam's hospitalization isn't just anyone's problem. You're a son, and so am I. According to the rules, no one is allowed to fail. Just do what needs to be done."
There were still some words in his heart that he did not say. This was what he owed. What he owed his mother, he had to make up for it.
If there were any grievances, dissatisfaction, or incomprehension in this life, the old lady was about to die, so he shouldn't be fussing over it.
Chen Bao Guo also shook his head decisively. "We can't take this. If we take it, the old lady won't be happy either."
"Then don't let her be." Li Fucheng stuffed the money into Sun Zhangru's hand and said happily, "Niece, take it."
Before Sun Zhangru noticed, the money was already in her arms, and she instinctively caught it. By the time she wanted to return it, Li Fucheng and Li He had already walked downstairs.
Sun Zhangru could only hold the money in a daze as she looked at Chen Bao Guo, his father, and his aunt.
After going downstairs, Li He handed Li Fucheng a cigarette. "Grandpa, want one?"
"Sigh, then I'll just smoke one." He took the cigarette and put it on Li He's lighter.
"Grandpa, are you okay?" Li He realized that Li Fucheng's state of mind wasn't right.
Li Fucheng smacked the cigarette and said, "I'm fine, I'm just happy. You don't know, but when she goes to work in the fields, she brings me along. I follow her wherever she goes. Old Madam, you used to be a cute person, but I didn't expect you to be so old now. "
"I can tell." Li He did not know how to reply.
You're old, you're already in your seventies!
However, he knew that Li Fucheng was a slow and clumsy person. He couldn't say anything fancy.
Probably because of the thirty thousand yuan, Chen Bao Guo invited Li Fucheng to a restaurant for lunch.
The wine was good, and because it was a gift, he brought it along.
As for the dishes, they were a bit lacking. Li He, who never ordered dishes, finally ordered two dishes for Li Fucheng to go with the wine, but Sun Jianfen stared at him.
Hence, before the meal was over, he went to pay the bill himself. He was too lazy to take advantage of her.
Chen Baoguo furrowed his brows, but Li Fucheng looked at Li He with admiration.
"Dad, dad, there's a guest." Just as they reached the entrance of the hospital, Chen Mingjing ran out in a panic.
Chen Bao Guo scolded, "What are you doing? Speak properly."
Chen Mingjing took a breath and said, "Dad, there's a guest from Hong Kong here to visit grandma. There are also many leaders from the city. Secretary Su is here too."
"A guest from Hong Kong?"
Everyone looked at each other. Their family didn't have any overseas connections.
Why would they come to the hospital to visit grandma?
Furthermore, all the leaders in the City Government were here. Even if their family had some background, Secretary Su would not be concerned about them. Furthermore, both parties' ranks were too far apart. It was already a great honor for Secretary Su to send his secretary over!
"Brother, could it be that you want it?" Sun Jianshe's heart skipped a beat.
Why else would there be such a scene?
"We're not from the same system." Chen Bao Guo was an understanding person. "Let's go in first."
Everyone went upstairs together. The entire corridor was packed with people. There were security guards, police officers, government officials, and even a large group of people who stood on their tiptoes and raised their heads to watch the show.
Li He was curious at first, but when he saw Huang Bingxin's secretary, he finally understood what was going on.
He pulled Da Zhuang out and asked, "What's going on?"
Da Zhuang pointed at Huang Bingxin, who was awkwardly chatting with Chen Bao Guo and the others. "He heard that your great-grandmother is sick, and he insisted on coming. I can't do anything about it."
Li He shook his head helplessly. What's the point of this!
He didn't know what was going on inside, so why did he join in the fun?
"Excuse me, is Boss Li back?" Huang Bingxin looked around and didn't see Li He in the crowd.
"Boss Li?" Everyone in the room was surprised.
No one knew who Boss Li was.
Chen Bao Guo and the Sun siblings were even more confused. Their surnames were either Chen or Sun. There was no Boss Li!
Chen Bao Guo said politely, "Mr. Huang, are you sure you're not mistaken?"
Huang Bingxin said with certainty, "Of course I'm not mistaken."
"Uncle, that Uncle Li …" Sun Zhangru reacted the fastest.
"Boss Li is here." Zhao Zunian's eyes were sharp, and he immediately saw Li He standing outside the crowd and chatting with Da Zhuang.
