Reiko has unique feelings for her sister Yingzi.

Although Yingzi is three years younger than Reiko, she has been very smart and obedient since she was a child.

When Reiko was at home, she often took Yingzi out to play.

I remember when I was a child, the two sisters always went out to beat pig grass, pick wild vegetables, and touch screws together.

In the dry season, the two sisters went to the river to block the water embankment, then used a bucket to dry the water, and then grabbed ten or eight kilograms of various fish, and took them home to improve the life of the whole family.

Moreover, the two sisters often help their parents grow vegetables, harvest rice, raise chickens, ducks, cattle, and pigs. Although life is difficult, they enjoy it.

Once, oh, by the way, was that one?!

Reiko remembered that when Yingzi was eleven years old, she took her sister to the county town to buy clothes by her uncle's hand tractor. The two sisters were happily sitting in the car and playing. They accidentally turned the tractor in a corner. Because of the great inertia, they threw the unsteady sister out of the car!

That time, Yingzi was thrown into a bruised and swollen face and dripping with blood;

The uncle quickly sent her to the county hospital for treatment, and the medical expenses alone cost more than 600 yuan.

Fortunately, my uncle was transporting small goods in the county town, and his money was more than that in Lingzi's passbook.

Fortunately, when he came out of the hospital, he did not leave Yingzi a disgrace.

Will Yingzi suffer from nephritis be related to that fall?

If it was the sequelae of that fall, my sin would be too great!

"Reizi, don't worry. Although Yingzi has chronic nephritis, she has not yet reached a particularly serious condition."

Seeing Lingzi standing in front of her without saying a word, her mother restrained her sadness and comforted her eldest daughter and said:

"The hospital told your father that as long as you treat it in time, Yingzi's disease can be cured. But—"

Mom looked at Lingzi hesitantly and said with some difficulty:

"It's just that the hospital said that we should treat it in advance as soon as possible. If the treatment is too late, it will be difficult to deal with it."

"Then--does it cost a lot?"

From my mother's words, Reiko thought of her father saying "I need money to spend now" twice in a row, and she was also worried.

"You must be hospitalized if you want to cure Yingzi's disease. The doctor said that if you want to cure it, it will cost about 30,000 yuan. In addition, some people suggested that your father take Yingzi to Shanghai. I heard that a military hospital in Songjiang, Shanghai has special treatment for chronic nephritis. They said that the doctors in that hospital have high level of doctors and good efficacy. But the money is definitely much more than in the county, right?"

The mother whispered to Reiko about her plan to treat Yingzi, and sighed as she spoke.

Ah, 30,000 yuan???!!!

For the Yan family, 30,000 yuan is like an astronomical figure!

However, for Yingzi's health and for her future life, even if it is 30,000 yuan, I have to find a way to raise money to treat it!

Moreover, since you go to treat it, you must cure it!

If you really need to go to Shanghai, then make up your mind to go to Shanghai!

However, if you really want to go to Shanghai, it wouldn’t be able to make 30,000 yuan. I’m afraid - at least 50,000 yuan, right?

Thinking about the financial situation at home and the possible expenses of her sister's treatment, Reiko was speechless.

Reiko doesn't know the condition of chronic nephritis, but I have heard before that if nephritis is severe, you cannot get married when you grow up. Even if you get married, you cannot have sex and have children! If that is true, then won't Yingzi be useless in this life?

"Mom, I have heard that chronic nephritis is not a minor illness. Since Yingzi has that disease, let's treat her quickly!"

Reiko has always cared for her family.

Especially for Yingzi's current lesions, Lingzi also believes that it is directly related to taking her to the county town to buy clothes when she was a child and accidentally letting her fall off the hand tractor. Therefore, while she cared for her sister, she also felt a serious feeling of guilt and guilt in her heart.

"Yes, Yingzi's illness is to be treated quickly! No, your dad and I are waiting for you to come back today to discuss this matter! Originally, your dad wanted to tell you about this matter on the phone two days ago, but he was afraid that you would be anxious, so he waited for you to come back to discuss it."

My mother sat on a broken-out chair, continuing to choose vegetables while showing her sad face.

"Oh, Lingzi, my sister is coming home later, don't ask her too much. She still doesn't know how serious this disease is!"

My mother chose the dish for a while and then gave Reiko a special reminder.

Reiko nodded silently.

At around 11:30, Yingzi brought her younger brother back from the street.

"Sister! Sister! You're back!"

When Yingzi and his brother saw their sister, they shouted excitedly and rushed forward, fighting for the land to hold hands with their sister.

"Ah, are you having fun? There are a lot of people on the street today?"

Reiko greeted her younger brother and sister, then led them to the right wing room, and took out holiday gifts for her younger brother and sister from the suitcase she had packed before.

"Come on, Yingzi, this is the skirt and floral shirt for you; baby,"

Reiko shouted at her brother's nickname and said:

"This is the clothes, pants and schoolbags for you. Remember, you have to study hard! Otherwise, my sister won't buy you anything in the future."

"Thank you sister!"

"Sister is so nice!"

After taking the holiday gift from Reiko, my younger brother and sister looked through it carefully.

At this time, Reiko quietly noticed her sister, and her face turned a little purple, and her spirit was a little depressed;

She gently held Yingzi's arm as if she was not mindful. Several slightly reddish and white swollen finger marks immediately appeared on Yingzi's arm.

Reiko's heart immediately sank again.

In order not to affect the emotions of the younger brother, sister, and parents, Reiko did not ask about Yingzi's physical condition, but still pretended to be very happy and said to her brother and sister with a smile:

"Come on, baby, Yingzi, today we will have a reunion dinner together!"

After saying that, he led his younger brother and sister out of the right wing room.

The family sat down around the Eight Immortals Table in the main hall and started to eat with a chat and laugh.

For Reiko's family, especially for her father, mother, brother and sister, the dishes at noon were absolutely hearty:

Chicken, duck, fish, meat, tea and eggs, rice dumplings with peeled rice dumplings, and a lot of fresh vegetables and tofu soup.

Today is a festival. For the family to have fun, before dinner, Lingzi specially took a fifty-yuan bill to her brother and asked him to go to the convenience store at the entrance of the village to buy a large bottle of Huiyuan juice as a drink.

It was dinner, because it was a festival, Reiko went home again and brought so many good things;

Moreover, Reiko transferred 10,000 yuan to her bank card yesterday! So Reiko's father was in a much better mood today.

He tore open the "Yunyan" that Lingzi bought for him, took out a pack from it and put it on the table; then happily opened a bottle of Beijing "Erguotou" wine.

To be honest, before this, he had never smoked cigarettes of "Yunyan" or drank such a good wine as finely decorated Beijing "Erguotou"!

Dad started pouring wine for his glass.

At the same time, Reiko also poured Huiyuan juice for her mother, younger brother, sister and herself.

After everyone's cups were full, Reiko took the lead in picking up the cup full of juice in front of her and became the owner of the dining table:

"Dad, mom, Yingzi, baby, today is the Dragon Boat Festival, it is the day for our whole family to reunite, and it is also a festive moment for our whole family to have a reunion dinner. Come, Yingzi, baby, let's pay a cup to dad and mom first, wishing dad and mom a happy holiday, good health, and everything goes well!"

"Okay, I wish you a cup to dad and mom!"

The younger brother and sister raised their glasses with Reiko and clinked to their father and mother's cups.

"Okay, OK, happy holidays, everyone cheers!"

Reiko's father happily raised his wine glass to meet his children.

My mother also raised the cup.

So, the family began to use Chinese food happily. As they ate, laughed, and said, the room was filled with cheerful atmosphere and frequent lively laughter.

However, during the meal, Reiko could see that there was still a layer of haze in her parents' eyes.

In order not to let parents' emotions affect the happiness of the holiday, Reiko used her forced laughter to influence her parents' emotions and fulfilled her responsibilities as her eldest daughter.

That night, after his younger brother and sister fell asleep, Reiko's parents called Reiko to the main hall.

Three people sat around the Eight Immortals Table in the main hall and began to discuss the issue of treating Yingzi.

"Reizi, Yingzi costs a lot of money to treat her illness. Your mother told you that you have any problems?"

The father looked at his eldest daughter with a worried and anxious look.

"No matter what, Yingzi's disease must be cured, and it must be cured immediately!"

Reiko answered unambiguously.

"But, money-?"

The father looked at his daughter in a heavy mood.

"Dad, I'll find a way to deal with money. Those two bottles of 'Maotai' wine and those two 'China' cigarettes, as my father said, I'll take them back to the city to sell them. According to the current market conditions, they can be sold for about 2,000 yuan."

Reiko answered.

"Oh, then, what else?"

The muscles on the father's face hopped gently twice, and he still looked at his daughter intently.
