"sorry."
Chen Tiezhu looked at Lin Zai in confusion, wondering why she wanted to apologize to him.
"You were bullied for no reason, but I just let Liu Yao go and couldn't even get justice for you. I'm so useless." Lin Zai lowered his head and apologized.
"Ms. Lin..."
"Liu Yao has done all the bad things, and I still have to tolerate him in every possible way. I keep saying that I want to do things for the people, but in fact, I can't do anything except say nice things." Lin Zai felt increasingly ashamed.
"Ms. Lin, don't take everything on yourself, you have done enough." Chen Tiezhu said sincerely.
"Brother Chen is right, Ah Zai, don't always think so much!" Yin Tianxun looked at Ah Zai with some distress.
Lin Zai didn't listen to the comforting words. She looked at Chen Tiezhu and suddenly asked: "Brother Chen, do you think it's unfair?"
"Yes! Don't mention how angry I was just now. I thought I didn't say anything wrong, but why did they treat me like that? I am also a human being. Although I am poor, I also have dignity!" Chen Tiezhu wrote on his face Dissatisfaction, sadness, anger, and grievance.
When Chen Tiezhu saw both Yin Tianxun and Lin Zai lowering their heads, he began to comfort him: "It's okay. This is nothing to me. Anyway, I have long been used to it."
Lin Zai objected: "This kind of thing shouldn't happen, and you shouldn't get used to it. Brother Chen, after all, I still let you down, right?"
Chen Tiezhu shook his head vigorously, "Miss Lin, don't think about it any more! Although I am a rough person and don't understand many things, I believe that in your heart you really want those people to be punished, right?"
Lin Zai nodded, "But many things are not what I want to do. The Liu family must be punished, but now is not the time. Brother Chen, there are actually many things involved behind this."
"Miss Lin doesn't need to explain, don't worry, I'm really fine." Chen Tiezhu replied boldly, and then asked: "By the way, Miss Lin, why are you here?"
"We are going to Shuangshui Village and we happened to pass by on the way." Lin Zai replied.
"Going to Shuangshui Village? Granny Cui is gone, and Wu Che has followed Wu Yin into the city. I thought you would never go to Shuangshui Village again."
"In your heart, I have no friendship? Although I came to Shuangshui Village because of my sister in the first place, I have already developed a deep friendship with everyone, so how can I alienate the relationship with the villagers just because my sister's family is no longer there? Besides, I’ve already become a teacher for children, so I can’t give up halfway.”
Chen Tiezhu was very moved, "Ms. Lin, I'm sorry, what I just said didn't mean anything else!"
"I know, Brother Chen, I want you to remember that the friendship between me and the villagers will never disappear."
Chen Tiezhu nodded and laughed naively.
"To be honest, I have never understood why there are so many bad people in the world. I also thought that the world would be destroyed all at once and everyone would be finished together! I know I shouldn't have such thoughts, but I just can't control it. ! But fortunately, I figured it out later. There are unkind and unjust bad people in the world. I can't change it, but I can choose what kind of person I want to be! Miss Lin, although I am just an inconspicuous little person, my My heart is not humble! Moreover, I have met you good people with righteous hearts, so I will never despair of this world. I believe that everything will be fine."
Lin Zai was deeply moved.
She will definitely persevere and will never let down Brother Chen's expectations, let alone the people of the Western Region.
God is watching what people do, good and evil, right and wrong.
Bad people will not continue to be rampant!
Lin suddenly had an idea in his mind, "Brother Chen, do you have any plans in the future?"
"I'm just a rough guy. What else can I do besides doing hard work?" Chen Tiezhu said in shame.
"Would you like to join the army and go to my adoptive father's place?" Lin Zai suggested.
Chen Tiezhu's eyes suddenly lit up, "Can I?"
"Of course. The army is short of men. However, marching and fighting is very dangerous. It would be best if there was no war. But if there is a fight, you may lose your life at any time."
"I'm not afraid! National stability is fundamental, otherwise we poor people will never have the chance to live a good life! Miss Lin, I want to go. I also want to protect my family and country, and be a useful person like you!"
"good!"
When she goes back, she will recommend Brother Chen to her adoptive father!

They were always paying attention to Father Zhou's condition, but he was still in the same condition, not getting any better.
Fortunately, it didn't take long for Da Zhou to bring the doctor back.
He gasped and pushed open the door, and before he could take a breath, he ran directly to his father.
Da Zhou bent down and whispered in Father Zhou's ear: "Dad, the doctor is here, the doctor is here."
How he longed to hear his father say something to him, even if it was just a simple response.
But Father Zhou couldn't say anything.
How Da Zhou wished that he was the one who got sick!
The doctor took Father Zhou's pulse very carefully. He frowned and looked at Father Zhou's face carefully. After a long time, he finally said as a last resort: "His condition is very bad. You should be mentally prepared!"
Da Zhou's mind went blank. He fell to his knees on the ground, holding the doctor tightly with both hands, "Please, please save my dad."
The doctor felt very uncomfortable because his abilities were limited. He did not dare to say words of hope to Dazhou because he was afraid that he would be even more sad by then.
"Let me get some medicine later. I can't guarantee anything. Again, just be mentally prepared."
I thought that many things were normal, but I didn't expect that when faced with the separation of life and death, he still couldn't deal with it indifferently.
Da Zhou seemed not to hear it, but he still knelt there unwilling to give up, "My father has worked hard all his life and has never enjoyed a day's blessings. My family is poor, and my father is always willing to go hungry and not dare to eat more, just to get rid of it." Leave more food for me, he is afraid that I will not be full, but he never thinks about himself! Doctor, please do well, as long as my father can be well, I can do anything you want!"
They could all feel how desperate Dazhou was at this time.
Chen Tiezhu wanted to do something for his brother. He also knelt on the ground and begged: "Save Father Zhou!"
Yin Tianxun felt very heavy at the moment.
After arriving in the Western Region, he realized that there were so many miserable people in the world. They suffered from hardship, fatigue, and all kinds of unfair treatment.
Living is not easy.
He really hoped that Father Zhou could recover and that father and son could continue to accompany and protect each other, but...
In this situation, someone must stay calm, and Lin naturally plays this role.
"Yi Ran, let's go with the doctor!"
This was the first time she took the initiative to call herself Qi Ran, but Yin Tianxun was too late to be happy.
"Thank you, Miss Lin, for the medicine money..."
Before Chen Tiezhu finished speaking, Lin Zai interrupted: "I'll pay for the money."
"How can this be done, Miss Lin, we will definitely pay back the money!"
"Okay, just think of it as if I'm borrowing this money from you first, and you don't have to worry about paying me back."
After saying that, she and Yin Tianxun left with the doctor.
"Azai, do you think Father Zhou will be fine?"
Lin Zai shook his head, "I don't know either!"
"Why does suffering have to exist in the world? Why do they have to endure this torture?"
Lin Zai didn't answer because she didn't know why.
"They are so miserable!"
"Yes, there are too many miserable people in this world!" Lin Zai sighed.

After Lin Zai and Yin Tian found the medicine, they hurried back to Da Zhou's house.
Chen Tiezhu endured the discomfort and said, "Miss Lin, Mr. Sun, I'm sorry to bother you."
"No trouble," Yin Tianxun replied. He took out a bottle from his arms, "There are a few pills in here. Let's find a way to get Father Zhou to take them first."
Chen Tiezhu nodded. He and Da Zhou carefully helped Father Zhou up. He couldn't swallow anything now, so they had to crush the pills and put them in Father Zhou's mouth. They gently raised his head and poured it into him with a spoon. I poured water into my mouth, hoping to get the medicine inside.
Because they were afraid that Father Zhou would choke, they only gave him a little water, but despite this, the water still flowed from the corners of Father Zhou's mouth.
Chen Tiezhu was very sad. He felt so uncomfortable, let alone Da Zhou!
The only person Da Zhou can rely on now is himself. Chen Tiezhu tried hard to strengthen himself. He cheered up and said to Lin Zai: "Miss Lin, Mr. Sun, leave this place to me. You can just go and do your work!"
"But your injury?" Yin Tianxun asked worriedly.
Da Zhou calmed down a little. When he heard this, he quickly looked towards Chen Tiezhu, only to find that his nose was bruised, his face was swollen, and his body was covered in bruises.
"Tie Zhu, what's wrong with you?"
Chen Tiezhu didn't want Da Zhou to know what happened. He was worried that Da Zhou would blame himself and feel guilty.
"I'm fine, I just accidentally fell."
He winked at Miss Lin and Mr. Sun, hoping that they could help him hide the matter.
Lin Zai and Yin Tianxun understood what Brother Chen meant. In this case, they couldn't say anything more.
Normally, Da Zhou would definitely continue to ask questions, but now he is focused on his father, so naturally he won't think about it deeply.
"By the way, who are these two?" Da Zhou looked at Lin Zai and Yin Tianxun. He had never seen them before.
"This is the Miss Lin I told you before. This is Mr. Sun, Miss Lin's friend!" Chen Tiezhu introduced.
"So this is Miss Lin."
I was just so sad that I didn't even have time to thank them properly.
"Thank you very much! I will definitely find a way to pay back the medicine money as soon as possible!"
If Lin was not with them, Dazhou really didn't know what to do.
Poor people don't deserve to get sick. It's hard enough to put food on the table. How can they have spare money to go to the doctor and buy medicine?
"I told you not to rush, Father Zhou's body is the most important! If there is anything else you need me to do, you can go directly to the General's Mansion to find me, you're welcome!"
"Thanks!"
Da Zhou is also simple and kind-hearted. At this moment, a thought came to his mind:
There are always more good people in the world!
