Gifts
Liu Guangtian finally returned to the hospital at night.
The sky had just turned dark. Liu Guangtian walked into the hospital. The nurse on duty glanced at him and said,
"Liu Guangtian, right? Why did you go out by yourself? Are you alright?”
Liu Guangtian wanted to say that he was feeling much better, but the nurse's next sentence immediately made him swallow his words.
The nurse said," If there's nothing else, go home. Don't waste the country's resources here."”
Liu Guangtian quickly pleaded with the nurse and told her what had happened to him in a sad tone.
At the same time, he expressed his pity for being homeless.
As expected, the nurse's eyes were filled with tears when she heard about Liu Guangtian's encounter. She kept telling Liu Guangtian to stay wherever he wanted and to move out when he found a house.
Liu Guangtian thanked the nurse profusely and returned to his room.
He began to think about it when he returned to his room.
Liu Guangtian didn't have a place to stay.
But Liu Guangtian wasn't stupid. He knew that he was being polite.
It was fine if he really went, but that would be too rude. Therefore, he had to stay in the hospital for a few more days.
Liu Guangtian already had a plan for the house. Director Zhang didn't say that he was dead, but he said that he was nervous.
It didn't mean that he wasn't nervous. It was just that Liu Guangtian was not related to them, so he had to go and express his gratitude if he wanted to find a place to stay.
In this era, gifts were not money or famous people's paintings.
If you dare to give something valuable, believe me, most of the leaders will definitely take you down and send you to prison. You must believe in the ethics of the leaders of this era.
However, he would give some things that were not worth much, but the leaders lacked, which was meat.
Don't underestimate meat. In this era where resources were extremely scarce, not everyone could eat meat just because they wanted to. Every household had a quota.
Therefore, the black market was born because the limited amount could not satisfy most people.
Liu Guangtian had caught more than 20 fish, sold a few, and ate one. He still had more than 10 fish in his hands, which was perfect for gifts.
Liu Guangtian walked out of the hospital as he watched the sky slowly turn dark. He headed toward Director Zhang's house according to his memory.
When he was almost at Director Zhang's door, he saw that there was no one around and quickly took out two fish from his space.
Then, he used the iron wire that he got from a buyer in Pigeon City in the morning to thread the two fish together. He carried them and knocked on Director Zhang's door.
Director Zhang's family was eating. There was not much meat at home recently. In fact, there was some pork at home, but it looked like the new year was coming.
There were many people in the family, so this bit of meat was only enough for one meal during the New Year.
There were still two more days before the new year. His family couldn't possibly stay like this forever. If it really didn't work out, he would go to Pigeon City tomorrow, Director Zhang thought helplessly.
Suddenly, a knock on the door interrupted Director Zhang's thoughts. Who was so insensible to rush to the house during mealtime? Director Zhang thought as he walked to open the door.
Director Zhang was a little surprised when he opened the door. Wasn't this the second kid from the Liu family? Why did he come to his house so late at night?
Liu Guangtian looked at Director Zhang, who was in a daze. He quickly brought the fish behind him to the front and said to Director Zhang,"Director Zhang, I'm really sorry to disturb your house so late at night.”
As he spoke, he stuffed the fish into Director Zhang's hand. Director Zhang quickly waved his hand and asked,"What are you doing?"
Liu Guangtian saw that Director Zhang was declining and knew that he had to say something quickly. He said with a smile,"I went out today and caught two fish. I had to trouble you to make a trip this morning. Later on, I had to trouble you to split the family, so I brought them for you.”
When Director Zhang heard this, he knew that he was here to give a gift. He thought about how he had not helped much in the morning. He had only given Manager Yang face and came over to give a gift. It was definitely not that simple.
In the blink of an eye, he saw that the two fish were big and fat. His house had not smelled of oil for a few days, so he did not want to reject them.
He let Liu Guangtian into the house, but he didn't take the fish from Liu Guangtian's hand.
Liu Guangtian saw Director Zhang let him in and knew that Director Zhang wanted these two fish. He said happily,"Director, I'm not only here to thank you, but I also want to ask you for something.”
When Director Zhang heard this, he knew that it was impossible for him to simply thank him. He probably wanted him to side with him when he split the family.
Initially, after hearing what Silly Zhu said about Liu Haizhong's family, Director Zhang felt that this child was quite pitiful. However, now that he saw it, this child was not simple either.
Therefore, Director Zhang asked calmly,"What do you want me to do for you?”
Liu Guangtian quickly said," Director, I have no place to live after I split up. Can you help me rent a house in the hospital?"”
When Director Zhang heard this, he said with doubt,"Just for this?"
"That's right. I don't have a place to stay. I can only stay in the hospital now.”Liu Guangtian explained.
"Just for this matter. It's simple. Take the fish away. Even if you don't say it, I'll find a place for you to stay.”Director Zhang said with a smile.
"I'd be a fool to believe you. You said that there was no place in the morning. Why did you solve it for me now?" Liu Guangtian muttered in his heart, but his face was full of smiles."Thank you, Director. I have no place to cook the fish. It would be a waste if you don't accept it.”
When Director Zhang heard this, his face lit up with joy. Then, he said,"That's true. How about this? I can't take your fish for free.”
Liu Guangtian hurriedly declined. The two of them exchanged blows. In the end, Liu Guangtian saw that Director Zhang was determined not to take it for free, so he accepted it at the price of two yuan per fish.
After Director Zhang accepted the fish, he looked at Liu Guangtian with satisfaction. This child was really sensible. He didn't know what illness Liu Haizhong had gotten into to beat and scold the child wantonly.
