Chapter 15

"Xiao Zhang, are you back from the hospital? How are you and your mother? Is it serious?"

In the old dormitory, an old aunt in her 60s and 70s sat by the flower bed to cool off. When she saw the neighbors in the same unit, she was busy greeting warmly.

"Aunt Xu!" Xiao Zhang said hello and said with a wry smile, "I've just returned from the hospital. My mother, alas, the doctor suggested that it's best to take conservative treatment!"

"Alas, there's no way. Your mother is in her seventies. It's too risky to have an operation!"

Aunt Xu sighed and shook her head. They are old neighbors who have lived for 20 or 30 years. They are very familiar with each other.

At the thought of the old lady who talked to herself a few days ago, but now she has a deadly disease such as cancer, I can't help but sigh at the same time.

Xiao Zhang's mother is two years younger than me. She just saw her grandson go to middle school. It's time to enjoy peace and happiness, but it turned out that——

"The doctor also considered that my mother was too old and in poor health, so he didn't recommend surgery!" Xiao Zhang looked tired.

The doctor didn't speak too clearly. In fact, everyone understood the meaning.

A situation like his mother can only be treated conservatively.

have an operation?

The old man entered the operating room alive. Whether he can come out alive is a problem.

Even if the operation is successful, there is no guarantee that there will be no other situation.

At best, it's the difference of living a few more months.

But if you don't do anything, you can't let the old man wait to die.

It's not just about money and filial piety. The key is that he can't get through the trouble in his heart.

Aunt Xu was very compassionate when she saw Xiao Zhang's tired body and mind. She suddenly thought of something, opened her mouth, said something to her mouth, and swallowed it back.

When Xiao Zhang found aunt Xu's abnormality, he couldn't help being curious and asked, "aunt Xu, do you have anything you want to tell me? Just say, is the light at home broken or the sewer blocked? I'll help you!"

Besides the neighborhood relationship, Xiao Zhang's enthusiasm is mainly due to his occupation.

He is a police officer. On weekdays, he helps the community's uncles and aunts find cats and dogs and do this and that.

Seeing Xiao Zhang's warm-hearted appearance, aunt Xu finally couldn't help but lower her voice and said, "Xiao Zhang, it's really not good. Just take your mother to his health club on East Street!"

At first, seeing aunt Xu's mysterious appearance, Xiao Zhang thought that the other party wanted to introduce himself to some old traditional Chinese medicine.

Since his mother was confirmed to be breast cancer, his relatives and friends have been helping to find out a good hospital or doctor.

Xiao Zhang also took his mother to the provincial capital, but the conclusion is the same.

A doctor couldn't bear it, so he said, "why don't you try traditional Chinese medicine."

This is about a little better than waiting for death. It can be regarded as the last psychological comfort for the family!

After 80, Xiao Zhang was an antibiotic and various Western medicines since childhood. When he heard about traditional Chinese medicine, his first reaction was a liar.

However, the reputation of traditional Chinese medicine is not good. At least it is also a legal and compliant medical form.

The "health club" mentioned by Aunt Xu is not a place to sell health products.

Xiao Zhang often receives reports from some old people's children. He always goes to those specialty stores and clubs to mediate disputes in a month.

Although in recent years, Xiao Zhang has rarely received any alarm from his family, he often goes to other clubs in the county.

Every time I go, there is a big quarrel about whether health care products are scams, and sometimes it will evolve into a chaotic war between the elderly, children and salesmen.

Seeing too many farces with his own eyes, Xiao Zhang will be born with rational disgust as soon as he hears the words "health care products", "club" and so on!

He never thought that his mother was terminally ill and the whole family was in a mess. Aunt Xu, who usually looked reliable, secretly asked him to take his mother to some health club.

What?

Does she still want to recommend them to buy health care products that can cure all diseases?

Let him a police officer run to send money to the liar?!

This, this is not a joke.

Xiao Zhang certainly won't go to those health clubs. He won't take his mother with him, nor does he want aunt Xu to be deceived.

"... aunt Xu, we have organized activities more than once and repeatedly publicized with the big guys that health care products can only protect health, but can't cure diseases at all -"

Xiao Zhang said seriously.

However, before he finished speaking, aunt Xu waved impatiently, "I know that health products don't cure diseases. I didn't let you go to other people's clubs. You go to he Hongtu. He can certainly help you!"

Xiao Zhang wanted to say something, but when he saw aunt Xu's stubborn appearance and rushed to his mouth, he swallowed it again.

Alas, he works in the community all year round. He deals with these old people almost every day.

Xiao Zhang knows the stubbornness and stubbornness of these old people better than anyone.

Let alone an outsider, the children of the old man are wearing their mouths out, but they still believe in those swindlers who sell health products!

"Oh, Xiao Zhang, we are old neighbors for twenty or thirty years. I have a good relationship with your mother. Will I hurt you?"

Seeing Xiao Zhang's appearance, aunt Xu was anxious, so she had to pat her chest and promise: "really, take your mother to his club. Xiao Zhang, I tell you, if we didn't have a good relationship and look at your boy, I and I wouldn't take the initiative to recommend it!"

"I know, you young people always think that we old people are confused and are coaxed around by those swindlers every day!"

"... hum, we've eaten more salt than you've eaten. We'll be cheated? If you still want to save your mother, go to he Hongtu. It's hard to say if you cure it completely, but it can make your mother live three or five more years!"

Aunt Xu said that she was annoyed first and simply waved her hand, "OK, OK, I won't say it, so that you won't scold me in your heart!"

"No, aunt Xu, I didn't scold you. I just think that health care products really don't cure diseases, but they are expensive to die -"

Before Xiao Zhang finished, he swallowed it himself.

Because Aunt Xu had stood up, picked up the little Mazar and went home.

Yes!

The old lady is really angry.

Seeing the old lady's back, Xiao Zhang was not angry, but had some interest in what he Hongtu was.

He Hongtu and his club are very famous in the county, although he has not received any alarm about he family in recent years.

In their dormitory, there are several old men and women who are customers of he family.

However, unlike other salesmen who come to work as sons and daughters, he family seems to have never visited customers.

In addition, aunt Xu seems to believe that the health care products sold by he family can cure diseases.

Is he Hongtu misleading?

If so, he Hongtu will be suspected of fraud.

"Go to his club sometime!" Xiao Zhang thought to himself.
