37 The hospital is a place where there are no smiling faces
No one likes the hospital, it's a place without a smile, and they all say that this is the incinerator of money, but, since the third year of high school, Chenxi has become a frequent visitor to the hospital, although she hates this place, but even if she hates it, there is no way to avoid it, she watched people in the car with medical records in their hands, as if they were going to work and walked into the hall of the hospital.
When Chenxi and Deng Chao walked into the hospital hand in hand, they saw anxious faces, of course, there were doctors and nurses with painful expressions on their faces, and occasionally doctors and nurses who passed through it, walking by with a look of indifference, they had seen too much.
There were also people who gathered around to talk about their loved ones' illnesses, showing painful expressions, and those who listened also showed empathetic expressions.
Chenxi pulled Deng Chao to walk past these people from afar, and she would come here with Deng Chao once a month, looking at these people with different faces and the same expressions.
She lay on the machine as usual, watching the machine move from head to toe on the top of her head, Deng Chao went to pay, and then the two left the hospital, every time, leaving the hospital, Deng Chao would take her to have a particularly good lunch, because he said, "In a place like the hospital, I always feel that once I go in, people will lose a lot of nutrition." β
Deng Chao gave up his studies for Chenxi, which has always been something that makes Chenxi feel guilty, and Deng Chao did not sue his mother for these.
Every time he goes to the hospital, Deng Chao will not tell SΓΉ Chenxi, he will always say, "It's okay, I'm here." Leave these things alone. β
He is like the head of the family, holding up the sky of the morning light, she has nothing, and indeed Deng Chao is her only one.
That day, it was supposed to be the day of routine examination, but Deng Chao came to the school to pick up Chenxi with a smile on his face, and said to her, "Today, we don't have to go, and we don't have to go in the future, the doctor said it's good, but you have to drink the medicine on time, so that your joints can recover faster, the friction of the bracket there, the doctor said that the prosthesis is not very good, and when I have money, I will give you a new one." β
"Really?" Tears flashed in Chenxi's eyes, and he looked at Deng Chao excitedly and asked.
"Of course, when did I lie to you." He smiled and put his hand on Chenxi's slightly cool hand, but he lowered his eyes but was a little sad.
A few days ago, he got the CT sheet, and the doctor looked at the film and said to him, "There is a shadow on the leg, it looks like a lump, and it is on the upper part of the leg." β
"Shadows? What's that? Doctor"
"Because she has been using prostheses for a long time, and her own physique is not good, or her skin is not easy to recover, and the joints are not as good as others have already healed, there are always blood clots, and now the blood clots have coagulated, but I am afraid that it will develop into bone tumors later."
"Is that going to be an operation? How is surgery done? β
"She can only remove the dead flesh, and she can't wear a prosthetic leg in this case."
"That means you can't stand up?"
"You can use crutches, or you can use a wheelchair."
"Is there no other way?"
"It's probably the best thing to do compared to her life."
"Is there any medicine that can be restrained, you prescribe some for me, here is her medical record." Deng Chao took out Chenxi's medical record sheet from his bag.
When he got out of the hospital, he called Chenxi and said, "What are you doing?" β
"Reading in the library." Her voice was quiet, and then she continued, "Good news for you, my book is out and I'm going to write another one." β
"That's good, I'll tell you something, I see that your prosthetic leg is very old, and the leg is also very sharp, and after a while I will save enough money to buy you a new one, don't wear the old one first, stay in the dormitory for a few days, okay."
"It's not good, I'll use it first, and I'll talk about it when you buy a new one."
"And what if it takes a long time?"
"Then I'll use this first, Deng Chao, you know, with a prosthetic, I still look like a normal person from the outside, if it weren't for it, I would be a disabled person in the eyes of others."
"Is it really that important what other people think?"
"Deng Chao, haven't we always lived in the eyes of others? Including what you wear, it is also worn for others to see. β
"Okay, then I'll save up to buy you a new one, but I can't visit your school often."
"Well, I know, actually, Deng Chao, you have been very good to me."
"Why, it's still far from my heart."
Hung up the phone, Deng Chao's mood was low, his eyes hurt in the afternoon light, he squatted on the table, drank a few sips of mineral water, and then took out the medicine bottles in the bag, a pile of English, and I don't know what the font is, around the bottle, Deng Chao raised his eyes, saw the pharmacy, ran in, bought a box with medicine, opened it, and poured the medicine into the grid one by one.
When Deng Chao took out the medicine box from her bag and handed it to Chenxi, she smiled and said, "It looks like a box with sugar." β
He didn't speak, just opened the box, looked at Chenxi very seriously and said, "This yellow pill is three meals a day, two tablets each time, this peach heart white pill is two times a day, one tablet at a time, and the front row is white, the first two are two meals a day, three tablets at a time, the back three are two meals a day, two tablets at a time, and the last row is one tablet a day, remember, don't drink medicine on an empty stomach." Do you remember? β
"Remember." She replied with a smile.
Deng Chao was a little disbelieving, covered the medicine box, and then said, "I'll send you a text message later, remember not to get confused, did you hear it?" β
"Why do you have to drink so much?" Dawn asked, putting the pill box in her school bag.
"Well, these are similar to calcium tablets, and they're good for bone recovery."
Gao Shengying walked on the campus where Chenxi was, looking at Chenxi's face with a little smile, she looked at it, and she smiled with relief, life taught her to grow up, and she learned to disguise.
She doesn't cry when she misses her father, she doesn't cry when she misses her mother, but she feels sad when she thinks about Gao Shengmei, Shengying walks very slowly, quietly walking with Chenxi and others at a distance, she suddenly can't bear to open her mouth to call her, and then she hears someone next to her "That's your sister"
She turned her head to look at Shengying, and the smile on her face dropped little by little.
Shengying just wanted to ask, it's about to be a holiday, what should she do?
Seeing her quiet face, Shengying asked like a duck, "Don't you have a class today?" β
"Do you have a cold?" Dawn asked.
"Well, a little, just get some sleep." She watched Chenxi habitually dig out her pocket, and then took out two hundred and gave it to her, "Go back quickly." β
Shengying clutched the two hundred dollars and suddenly wanted to cry
