Chapter 325 Uncle, help!
Chapter 325 Uncle, help!
Looking at the lonely rabbit lantern being pushed away from the shore by the current, Aliang suddenly regretted it.
This dime can buy two candies!
Even if you don’t eat it yourself, you can give it to your younger brothers and sisters.
Prodigal son, prodigal son!
He heard footsteps nearby and turned his head. It was a face that looked somewhat familiar.
The woman was wearing a thick cotton coat, and her whole body was almost wrapped like a ball.
She held a rabbit lantern like his in her hand, squatted down with difficulty, carefully placed the lantern on the water, and pushed it forward.
The rabbit lantern was pushed out a palm's distance and quickly came back.
She frowned and continued to push, this time with more force. The lamp went out two palms away, but still turned back.
"Go, go quickly."
She seemed a little anxious and used more strength this time.
Just by accident, she slipped and one foot stepped directly into the water.
Aliang felt his feet go cold just by looking at it.
The girl stared blankly at her foot, not retracting it, just staring at it, and then turned blankly to the rabbit lantern that floated back.
I don’t know what triggered it, but suddenly my nose twitched and I buried my head in my knees and started crying.
"Hey, um..." Aliang suggested in a low voice, "If you want to cry, can you please put your feet up first? They are quite cold."
If a girl catches a cold, she is likely to suffer from a cough and stay in bed like Fourth Aunt.
Unfortunately, his voice was too soft and was drowned out by the crying.
Aliang coughed and raised his voice.
"Hello, beautiful?"
The girl stopped crying for a moment and raised her head in a daze.
Seeing this, Aliang finally breathed a sigh of relief and pointed at her feet.
"cold."
"Oh, thank you."
The girl finally retracted her feet and continued crying with her knees buried in her body.
A Liang: “…”
No.
Don't you take off your shoes and wipe your feet?
It’s really cold, I caught a cold.
No, there are no foot cloths or clean shoes here.
Aliang stood up and looked towards the increasingly lively lantern festival. After hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth and ran over.
It’s so expensive!
What a lousy pair of shoes, sixty for one pair.
Towels too, are they robbing us?
A Liang came back depressed and saw that the girl was still crying. He didn't care about the money and walked over to her and patted her on the shoulder.
The girl raised her head again.
She looked at Aliang blankly with her red and swollen eyes.
"Here, change your wet shoes. Also, use this cloth to wipe them."
A Liang squatted down with a stern face. "Did something happen to you? I tell you, there is no obstacle in the world that cannot be overcome. The girl I like has a boyfriend and I didn't cry~"
"Isn't it just a lamp?"
A Liang looked at the rabbit lamp that was quietly parked on the side and said, "I'll help you push it away."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pushed hard. The rabbit lantern really floated outwards under his force, but soon, the rabbit lantern turned back.
A Liang: “!!!”
I don't believe it.
"Come again!"
The rabbit lantern floated out and came back.
"Hey, I must have been going in the wrong direction just now."
The rabbit lantern still floated back.
Ah Liang scratched his head and said, "I'm telling you, this could be, yes, the wind. The wind is blowing this way. Let's push it further away."
"Pfft."
A Liang was stunned for a moment and turned to look at the girl.
"You're not crying anymore?"
The girl was about to cry again when she heard this.
"Hey, hey, hey, please don't cry anymore. If you want to cry, change your shoes first. I'm telling you, girls should take good care of their bodies, especially their feet. It's very painful to let the cold air enter your body, do you know?"
The girl was stunned for a moment, said thank you softly, and then turned around to change her shoes.
Twilight Quadruple.
The light from the rabbit lamp shone on Aliang's face, full of relief.
"Hey, you look familiar to me. Have we met somewhere before?"
The girl slowly shook her head and whispered, "No?"
"You look familiar to me. How old are you? Are you still studying or working?"
"I'm at work."
"Where do you work?"
"City Hospital."
Ah Liang slapped his thigh and said, "I'm sure I've seen you before. I've been going to the hospital a lot lately, so I'm sure I've seen you before. Are you a nurse?"
The girl turned around and looked at him seriously: "Why are you running to the hospital?"
"This... is a long story."
A Liang not only told about his classmate falling off a bike, but also about the time when he accompanied Su Chen to see Xu Jiating.
"Ah...are you the master's nephew?"
"Do you know my uncle?"
The girl nodded. "The incident at the obstetrics and gynecology department was actually quite serious. We all heard about it." She pulled out a yellow talisman from her bosom. "We all went to get amulets for safety, just in case something bad happened to us."
Ah Liang took a quick look and said, "It's obvious that this talisman of yours wasn't drawn by my uncle. It may not work. I'll ask my uncle to get you one later."
"Thank you, I can buy it."
"It's just a talisman, no need to be polite to me. By the way, why were you crying just now? You looked so sad?"
The girl's eyes darkened when she heard this.
She sniffed: "I, I just feel so useless."
"how come?"
"My patient passed away. I invited a teacher to come, but he still passed away."
"Huh?" A Liang scratched his head. "Birth, aging, sickness, and death—isn't that normal?"
"His life span has come to an end. No matter how much you try to keep him, it will be useless."
"Lifespan?" The girl was stunned for a moment. After realizing that Uncle Liang was a master, she slowly nodded and said, "You're right. It seems to make sense."
Ah Liang was about to grin when she asked, "But if life expectancy is fixed, what is the use of us doctors?"
"Doctor?" Aren't you a nurse?
Aliang was stunned for a moment, but soon realized that the girl was getting stuck in a dead end.
"No, life expectancy is fixed, but without doctors, some people might die lying down, some might die limping, or even die in constant pain."
"Uncle Zhao said that everyone is destined to die. What matters is how you live. If you're sick or injured, you have to see a doctor. You can't just keep suffering in pain, right?"
“So, doctors are still very important.”
The girl fell silent.
She stared blankly at the river, not knowing what she was thinking.
A Liang simply pulled her up.
"Come on, let's change places."
"Hey, my shoes."
The two of them went under the bridge carrying their wet shoes.
Ah Liang said proudly: "The wind is not strong here, the lantern will definitely float far away, why don't you give it a try?"
The girl nodded, squatted down, and slowly placed the rabbit lantern on the water.
This time the light floated directly down along the water.
She quickly closed her eyes, clasped her hands together, and muttered something.
The light here was very dim, and Aliang could hardly see her face, but her nose did move.
He seemed to smell a fragrance.
Light, like magnolia.
Maybe it's perfume?
When the girl opened her eyes and put down her hands, she was about to stand up when her body suddenly tilted.
"Hey, be careful..."
Aliang subconsciously reached out to grab the girl's cotton jacket, but he was also dragged towards the surface of the water.
Seeing that the two were about to fall, A Liang shouted in panic: "Uncle, help!"
The next moment, a figure slowly emerged.
The Taoist power with a green glow rushed towards the water surface like a spider web.
