Chapter 240: Seeking Medical Treatment in a Foreign Land
This time, in addition to Yang Guo and Zheng Yujie, there was also an assistant editor under Zheng Yujie, a girl who was also not very old. This girl wears a pair of thick and big glasses, dressed smartly but doesn't know how to match, if you wear braces, then it is the image of the steel-toothed girl in the movie.
Of course, this trip will not be limited to the three of them, Dongxin Publishing House has already sent two staff members over there, and those two people have already arranged for them to have food, clothing, housing and transportation in the United States!
The plane arrived in the Big Apple, where two staff members were already picking them up. They didn't rent a car, because they rented a car, and they couldn't drive on the road, after all, the driving style and traffic rules in the United States and China are very different.
The hotel is called Georgetown Holiday Inn, the price is medium, not too luxurious, but the decoration of the hotel is quite stylish, will not let others look down on it, after all, it is a business trip, some to install or have to install.
Not in a hurry to follow Young? Martel met with him, and the staff communicated with him beforehand, and the time agreed by the two parties was the afternoon of the day after tomorrow. There is still more than a day, Yang Guo plans to take Qiqi to visit the first metropolis in the United States, and Zheng Yujie, who once studied in the United States and is relatively familiar with the Big Apple, volunteered to be a tour guide.
There are many world-famous tourist attractions in the Big Apple, the Statue of Liberty is almost 100 meters high, but there are many more! Like Broadway, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Fifth Avenue, Wall Street, Times Square, Central Park, the Empire State Building, etc., you can't finish it in a day!
On the first day, Yang Guo and Zheng Yujie only had enough time to go to the Statue of Liberty. Fortunately, the weather was good, and they took the elevator from the base of the bronze statue to the top of the pedestal, and then climbed more than 100 or 200 steps along the spiral staircase to the crown of the Statue of Liberty.
Standing at a height of more than 100 meters, through the small iron window, you can look into the distance. To the east, Manhattan is lined with tall buildings, like a forest of steel and concrete, and those tall buildings are no shorter than the Statue of Liberty, which shows how magnificent it is; The big apple bay in the south is sparkling, and speedboats, yachts, fishing boats, etc. are scattered on the vast water surface, which inexplicably gives people a majestic sense of thousands of sails chasing each other in the age of discovery.
After returning to the hotel, Yang Guo couldn't sleep for a long time, and his heart was still full of the shock given by this big city.
Of course, it can't be compared like this, Yangcheng has thousands of years of historical and cultural heritage, which will give people a heavy sense of heaviness, and behind the twilight is actually dormant ambition waiting for the opportunity to rise again.
After seeing the Statue of Liberty, Yang Guo thought about going to see other attractions in the Big Apple the next day. However, plans can't keep up with changes!
I don't know if it's not adaptable, but when I got up the next day, Kiki vomited up and down, and after eating the rice cereal and milk, she vomited out, and the stinky smell that was pulled out was thin yellow and yellow, and the diapers kept changing.
I couldn't eat, I was hungry, I had too much diarrhea, my little buttocks were red and painful, and Qiqi's hoarse cry broke my heart!
After tossing and turning in the hotel for more than an hour, but no improvement was found, Yang Guo rushed out of the hotel with his daughter in his arms in his arms, stopped a taxi and drove to the nearest children's hospital.
"Dude, your child looks very uncomfortable." The black driver who was driving the car said with a glance in the rearview mirror. I don't know if black people have a talent for rapping, he says a word casually, and it seems to be humming with his rhyme feet.
"Brother, please drive faster." Yang Guo told him about Qiqi's symptoms and urged anxiously.
"No problem, there's no one in Queens who can drive as fast as my senior (big_eight)!" The black brother boasted proudly. His hands and feet are not exaggerated, he stepped on the accelerator and jumped out, his speed did not soar, but like a nimble snake, twisting left and right in the crowded traffic, every time he encountered a red light, he could drive out at the moment when the light flashed.
"It's here!" The taxi flicked its tail like a drift in front of the hospital, and then came to a steady stop.
"Brother, good technology!" The table said sixty dollars, Yang Guo directly stuffed him with a Franklin, patted him on the shoulder and said, "The rest is a tip (keep_the_change)." ”
"Hey!" The black man shouted, stretched out an arm from the car window, made a gesture with his thumb and forefinger holding a gun, pointed obliquely at Yang Guo, grinned, showed his white teeth, and said with a smile, "Good luck, buddy!" ”
rushed to the children's hospital, Yang Guo did not have the medical insurance of the United States, and he needed to go through a lot of procedures and pay a lot of money. Helpless, Yang Guo only held Qiqi, whose little face was haggard from being tossed by diarrhea, and ran up and down anxiously, and finally made an appointment with a doctor for her.
While waiting in line, Zheng Yujie and the others finally arrived.
"How's it going?" Zheng Yujie received the news, and just woke up and rushed out before her hair was tidied up, it was a mess, and her previous neat and capable image was all ruined, but she didn't care about it so much, ran over, gasped and asked.
"Not yet." Yang Guo frowned and shook his head, and said, "The doctor hasn't seen it yet." ”
"Seeing a doctor in the United States is a hassle." Zheng Yujie sighed, if she was in the capital, let alone going to the hospital, she estimated that the doctor could come to her for consultation by making a phone call.
Finally, it was Kiki's turn, and the doctor said that it could be caused by a bacterial infection and that laboratory tests were needed for further treatment. The laboratory examination will take a few hours, and when Yang Guo heard it, he almost didn't punch the doctor who looked young and had no hair on his mouth.
Out of this doctor's office, Yang Guo frowned and asked Zheng Yujie, "What should I do?" How many hours to wait? Kiki can't wait! I haven't eaten in the morning. ”
Zheng Yujie is also at a loss, in the United States, she buys medicine for minor illnesses by herself, and only goes to see a doctor when she is seriously ill, where does she have much experience in dealing with hospitals?
A staff member who came next to him looked around and whispered to Zheng Yujie and Yang Guo in Chinese: "Or, let's go see Chinese medicine?" ”
"Chinese medicine?" Yang Guo asked in surprise, "Is there still a Chinese medicine in the Big Apple?" ”
"Hey, don't underestimate us Chinese!" The staff member smiled, "Don't talk about Chinese medicine, in Chinatown, fortune tellers, candy blowers, you can find them." ”
"So what are you waiting for? Take us there. Yang Guo was already as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, Zheng Yujie patted the staff member and said for him.
(A large wave of Kiki is coming, begging for a monthly pass, asking for a recommendation, a new month, begging for everyone's support!!) )
