Chapter 408: Other People's Gossip
I was unsettled for a long time before I saw the child's father come back from the place where I paid the fee. Li Shangjing asked him a little nervously, "How much did you pay?"
"Fifteen thousand!"
"That's so little, how many days can it last!"
"The nurse who just took me to pay the bill said that it would last for a month. ”
"Did you hear me wrong?"
Li Shangjing's voice suddenly rose up, with a hint of piercing sharpness. Wu Xiaohan, who was indulging in the vitality on the back mountain, was awakened by his mother's surprise, turned around, and looked at his parents suspiciously. Wu Chengzhang was stunned by his wife's sudden outburst, "I can't hear it wrong, five hundred yuan a day is not too little, are you so excited?!"
......Li Shangjing wanted to say: What I'm afraid of is that there are no good goods. Don't be that the external conditions of this hospital are good and glamorous, but the real medical skills are indiscriminate, that is the fatal thing. They are here to heal the sick, so what's the use of just living well?
muttered in his heart, but did not pour out the words in his heart, only stuffed his head and put some of the things that Wu Chengzhang brought back where they should be.
Even the quilts and bedding are brand new, and the covers, sheets, and towels are thick and solid, not the kind of casual and temporary translucent goods. Seeing these unexpectedly good quality things, Li Shangjing felt a sense of refreshment when she went shopping and bought things cheaply, and her mood was inexplicably high-pitched, and her son's illness was temporarily forgotten.
When the last toothpaste, toothbrushes and towels were placed in the bathroom, Li Shangjing patted the placket of his clothes, and asked Wu Chengzhang, who was sitting on the sofa and reading the booklet of admission instructions: "Where are we going to eat? I haven't seen a restaurant all the way, so I can't go to the hospital canteen to eat, right?"
Wu Chengzhang happened to see the items mentioned in the admission instructions for the arrangement of escorts, and pointed to one of them to show his wife: "This hospital also arranges accommodation for escorts, and arranges food and accommodation for one escort for free." We can take the medical card issued by the hospital to my son and go to the cafeteria to eat, four meals a day, plus a late night snack in the morning, noon and evening. Hey, this hospital is really well arranged!"
Li Shangjing stretched out her head to look at the ones that her husband pointed at with his finger, and nodded: "This hospital is really good, in this case, the two of us take turns to eat two meals, and this living expenses can be regarded as saving." ”
Breakfast from 5:30 to 9 p.m., 10 p.m. to 2 p.m., 4 p.m. to 8 p.m., and supper from 9 p.m. to 12 p.m.
"Oh, Lao Wu, you see, the lunch doesn't end until two o'clock, let's hurry up, we can have a good meal." ”
As soon as they got out of the train station, they hurriedly took a taxi to the hospital, and they had no chance to eat until now, and the family of three was already hungry.
"It just so happens that I'm already so hungry that I can't move!What about Xiaohan? Is it the same as what we eat?" Wu Chengzhang looked for a long time for the patient's meal, but he didn't find it, so he asked a little uneasily.
Li Shangjing looked at his son who didn't care what he was eating, and guessed, "It should be the same, right?"
Wu Xiaohan nodded: "I guess so!"
There are also several inpatient units on it, and the cafeteria of our third inpatient department is on the first floor of Building 3. It's in front of us, let's go!"
Wu Chengzhang casually flipped to the back of a few drawings, which happened to be the instruction maps of each hospital. Li Shangjing didn't even need to ask for the road when he saw it, and sighed in his heart that this foreigner was different, and he was really thoughtful enough in all aspects.
When a family of three entered the cafeteria, their mouths open: Mom!
"Whew, it's all at this point, why are there so many people eating?"
Wu Xiaohan was still lamenting that this cafeteria was several times larger than the cafeteria of their university, and his mother overturned his attention with a low-voiced exclamation. He also felt strange when he saw that there were still more than half of the people in such a large cafeteria, and everyone was working hard.
When I was cooking, I didn't expect that there would be so many kinds of food in the canteen, and there were more than 10 kinds of meat dishes, including poultry, fish and shrimp in the water. There are only seven or eight kinds of vegetables. There are many staple foods such as white rice, steamed buns, steamed buns, and stickers. The soup includes bone broth, millet soup, corn residue soup, fish soup, chicken soup, and also meat and vegetarian soup.
In Li Shangjing's astonished exclamation, the family of three picked out the staple food, meat and vegetable dishes, and meat and vegetable soup that they liked to eat, and found a place with a relatively large number of people to sit down and eat. After sitting down, he didn't speak, but only listened to the conversation of the person next door.
The mother and son in the back are back to back with their family, so they can speak clearly, and they can't listen if they don't want to, not to mention that they still want to listen.
Mother: "Don't you like fried hairtail fish the most, why don't you eat it?"
"Mom! it's not that I don't eat it, it's that you make too much of it, and I really can't eat it. You're relying on it to take it without spending any money?"
The mother was embarrassed: "You child! Even my mother is buried, is your mother that kind of person? Usually I am a well-behaved person, and I eat as much as I want." It's not that you've been busy borrowing money during this time, it's too hard, I want you to eat well, so I took more, and I didn't take it as you said!"
"Hehe, hey, just kidding! How is our dad recovering? Did Director Xie say when he would be discharged from the hospital?"
"When you finish eating, you look at the film your dad filmed, there is no shadow in your brain at all, and the tumor in it should be completely gone. Your father was discharged from the hospital in a hurry, and Director Xie meant that he would be discharged from the hospital until the middle of next month. ”
"Then listen to Director Xie! I will be discharged from the hospital next month. When I was in the car, I was chatting with another patient's family member, and she said that in my family's situation, I was able to apply for a certain degree of relief. I'll go to the general office of the hospital to inquire about the specific situation, and if I really can, I'm afraid I will have to do the certification materials or something. ”
The mother didn't seem to believe it, and asked suspiciously, "Our family is not a local here, can we do it?"
"It should be possible, I heard that patients from all over the country who are treated here can apply, as long as the conditions are met, they can be passed, regardless of where they are. ”
Wu Xiaohan was a little moved in his ears when he heard this, his family's conditions were not good, and he didn't know if he could apply for a reduction or exemption. But he was moved, but he didn't interrupt the conversation between the mother and son, after all, they had just arrived, and they had time to inquire about it.
The mother and son over there were chatting: "Mom! I haven't had time to tell you the big news! This time I went back, something big happened to our village department, and Secretary Mu almost went to prison." ”
"What?!What's going on?"
"Hehe! Mom! You don't know! How dark is this Secretary Mu's heart! The disability subsidy that our father applied for had actually been approved a long time ago, and Secretary Mu was called greedy. ”
"Really? Secretary Mu's business, you didn't report him, right? How can you be so reckless! His family still doesn't know how to take revenge on my family?"
"Mom, don't worry! It has nothing to do with our family, but he is too greedy. It's been more than ten years since the old Red Army in our village died, you know?"
"How can you not know! Your father is going to the funeral. ”
"Hmph! The old Red Army died for more than ten years, but Secretary Mu did not report it, and kept pretending to be the nephew of the old Red Army to receive government subsidies from the old Red Army. That's more than 1,900 yuan a month! He took it for more than 10 years. If his son hadn't reacted quickly and immediately took out the money to make up for it and returned it to the government, he would have been in prison by now. Hehe!
The young man laughed happily and gloatingly.
The mother was very puzzled, if no one reported this matter, and the village cadres did a little tricking, the top would not be able to know: "Then why was it suddenly known from above?"
The son replied very coolly: "Why don't you say it! Good will be rewarded with good and evil will be rewarded with evil, it's not that you don't report it, and the time has not yet come! Isn't the year after next the 60th anniversary of the National Day? Register one year in advance, and which old Red Army soldiers are in good health and will be able to enter Beijing to participate in the event. No, Secretary Mu's matter was exposed all of a sudden, and he couldn't even find the object he wanted to take revenge on in the future. Our family, who was greedy for relief, got a profit, and my father's disability allowance over the years was more than 6,000 yuan! Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to scrape together enough money so quickly. ”
"Besides my family with disability allowance, who else has it?"
"It's not just disability subsidies! Liang Mingzu of the Liang family, who is in a production group with us, his youngest son died of illness and his daughter-in-law remarried, leaving behind a granddaughter......
The son's words were quickly interrupted by his mother: "I know this! Her family's application materials are still written with the help of Teacher Qin next door to our house, doesn't it mean that she has never applied for it?!"
"Where! It has been approved a long time ago, but Secretary Mu is greedy! His heart is so dark! He is even greedy for the orphan's support. ”
"It's so dark, why didn't he go to jail?
"Maybe it's someone?!Anyway, after his two sons took out all the money he was greedy to compensate us for a number of families, he would be fine. However, the position of secretary has been taken down, and now they are ordinary people like us. ”
Even the people of Pingtou are different, his family has a three-story western-style building and two buses that run long distances. What do we have in our family? We owe a lot of debt!"
"Mom! I'm very afraid! Dad's illness is cured, and he doesn't need to spend too much money in the future. I'm still young, and when we work for a few years to pay off our debts, we will save money to build a western-style house. Our family can't afford to build a three-story building, so we should be able to build a two-story one!"
"Easy to say...... Alas!" The mother did not speak, for fear of discouraging her son's enthusiasm, only a long sigh of sorrow.
