Chapter 42. What is a friend

Leaving the God of Wealth Temple, Lin Yi thought about it, and finally decided to go to the hospital first.

The first people's hospital in the urban area, today's big hospitals are all decorated with bells and whistles, the various departments are like a maze that makes you scratch your head, and there are hospitalizations, and the various procedures for seeing a doctor are more complicated than the number of Olympiads, for many people, they would rather go to a small clinic than come here to suffer, mainly because they are cumbersome, and often a simple bill has to run upstairs and downstairs more than a dozen times.

Lin Yi didn't like the smell of alcohol and disinfectant in the hospital, which was torture for his incomparably sensitive nose.

Rubbing his uncomfortable nose, Lin Yi tried his best to keep a kind smile on his face, and came to the information desk in the hospital hall, but found that there was no one, and after waiting for a while, a girl dressed as a little nurse came over with a mobile phone, Lin Yi wanted to say hello, but the girl was talking to the mobile phone, glaring at him impatiently with big eyes with fake eyelashes, Lin Yi had to wait patiently. The girl was long-winded, as if she was going to have a birthday, and was arguing over ordering a cake.

Suddenly, Lin Yi looked at the time, five or six minutes had passed, and his patience was limited, so he patted the counter vigorously and said to the girl, "Excuse me, ask for something." Then the girl raised her head and said, "Wait a while, don't you see that I'm busy." ”

Lin Yi said coldly: "I just want to ask what the complaint number of your hospital is-" Then he glanced meaningfully at the badge worn by the girl on the left, "Comrade Li Mengge, is it?" ”

The girl's face changed slightly, she hung up the phone hurriedly, and said to Lin Yi with some embarrassment: "That, what is your specific situation, and what can I do to help you?" The tone became very cordial and warm, just like the two of them just now.

Lin Yi said, "It's very urgent to check someone." ”

With the enthusiastic help of the girl, Lin Yi easily found out the information of Huang Jiaotou's mother, after all, paralysis, burns, such a significant feature, no one can forget it.

When he went up to the inpatient room on the third floor, Lin Yi found Ward 502, he didn't push the door directly in, but looked inside through the glass window on the door of the ward.

Sure enough, Huang Jiaotou and his mother were inside.

The old lady's situation seems to be stable, but she is still taking hanging injections, which are estimated to be anti-inflammatory and the like, as well as glucose and the like, after all, these two kinds of hanging needles in the hospital are the most common, whether you are sick or not, come first a few bottles.

Huang Jiaotou is peeling oranges for the old lady, the old man has lost a lot of weight after being hospitalized for so many days, he can't eat, he is afraid of going to the toilet when he drinks water, and he eats oranges to moisten his mouth.

In fact, Huang Jiaotou was also very haggard, and in the few days that the old lady was hospitalized, he basically didn't close his eyes.

Since burns need to be changed and anti-inflammatory at any time, Huang Jiaotou had to stay by the old lady's side at all times, he had no money, and he could not afford to hire the professional nurses provided by the hospital, although he knew that it would be better to let those nurses do this.

Basically, when the old lady urinates, Huang Jiaotou will carry her into the toilet herself, and then put it on the toilet seat for the disabled, help her untie her pants, and help her wipe it clean after using the toilet.

Huang Jiaotou was not dirty, but the other family members living in the same ward kept him away because he always smelled bad.

The old lady knew that her son was hard, so she tried to drink less water and eat less, and eat those that were easy to digest, and tried not to go to the toilet, sometimes in the middle of the night, she was woken up by urine, and looked at Huang Jiaotou lying haggard next to her and asleep, the old lady couldn't bear to wake him up, so she wanted to move her body and try to sit in a wheelchair, but every time she moved, Huang Jiaotou woke up, and then the first sentence was: "Mother, are you going to the toilet?" ”

Looking at the white hair that gradually grew from the sideburns of Huang Jiao's head, as well as the cheeks that were so haggard that there was no blood sunken because of staying up all night, the old lady's heart suddenly became very painful, more painful than the burned place, and the convulsions hurt...... She felt sorry for this son. Why should I drag him down, sometimes the old lady thinks to herself, it will be better if she dies.

"Mother, eat oranges." Huang Jiaotou broke open a petal of the peeled orange and handed it to the old lady's mouth.

The old lady opened her mouth, ate the orange, and said, "Sour." ”

Huang Jiaotou said: "Then I'll break a sweet one for you." ”

The old lady trembled her lips and said with difficulty, "Mother...... Love to eat...... Sour. ”

As long as it is given by her son, she loves to eat it no matter whether it is sweet or sour.

Huang Jiaotou took out a knife, cut the orange very carefully, tasted a little first, as long as it was sour, he put it aside, and fed the sweet one to the old lady. He did it very carefully and seriously, just like he once did bomb disposal exercises in the army, with full attention and meticulousness.

Outside the door, Lin Yi saw this scene and didn't push the door in.

What do you say when you go in?

Is it a polite or greeting?

Is it pity or condolence?

So Lin Yi only lingered for a moment and left the ward, no matter what, there was one thing he had to do.

……

In the ward, just as Huang Jiaotou was feeding the old lady oranges, the door of the ward opened, and a doctor on duty walked in.

Seeing the doctor, Huang Jiaotou's face became a little embarrassed, because the female doctor had urged him several times to pay the arrears of medical expenses, and he was hospitalized for a week, spending almost 8,000, just burned, but the daily medical expenses were as high as more than 1,000, and this kind of hospital really couldn't afford to live.

That's right, the female doctor, as usual, first inquired about the specific situation of each bed, checked the progress of the hanging needle, and then began to urge the payment of various medical expenses, when it was Huang Jiaotou's turn, Huang Jiaotou had already made up his mind to use the excuse last time again, in his opinion, before raising money, this hospital will not throw patients outside, although this method is a bit suspicious of playing tricks, but it is a last resort.

In fact, in order to treat his old mother, Huang Jiaotou had raised a lot of money, and even sold his favorite combat medal in the army for a price, but that only raised more than 1,000 yuan. Huang Jiaotou understood that if he was willing to bow his head and bend his spine a little to those familiar Jianghu bigwigs, let alone a few thousand yuan, even if it was tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, he would have it at his fingertips, but he didn't do it, because he knew what the consequences and costs of doing that would be.

The female doctor's footsteps were already very close, and Huang Jiaotou didn't dare to look at it, waiting for the sound of urging the account to sound in his ears.

However, this time he was wrong.

The female doctor actually looked at him with a smile, and then said: "Mr. Huang, your mother's condition is very stable, and she will be discharged from the hospital in a few days, well, the 30,000 yuan you just paid is very timely......"

"What, thirty thousand?" Huang Jiaotou was stunned, "I didn't pay it, who paid it?" ”

When the female doctor saw this, she also said strangely: "What, isn't that Lin Yi your friend?" ”

Looking at the female doctor stupidly, looking at the question on her face, Huang Jiaotou suddenly understood something, his eyes flashed with a hot light, and said, "Yes, he is my friend," and in an accentuated tone, "Best friend!" "For some reason, my eyes were a little moist.

What is a man and what is a friend?

Needless to say, needless to say.

My heart, you know.
