Chapter 47: The Mentally Ill
"But...... The psychiatric hospital costs too much money and I simply can't afford it. Cheng Shuqing almost pleaded.
Indeed, nursing homes are fundamentally different from psychiatric hospitals, living in nursing homes is just for someone to take care of, while psychiatric hospitals are for treatment, not to mention medical expenses, even ward fees, not only in her hands.
"Alas! We can't help it. Aunt Wang sighed helplessly, but also expressed a clear refusal.
"Let's go see that friend of yours first, and we'll talk about the rest."
Lu Chuan wanted to see what kind of person he was, and even the orphanage, which had always waited for the elderly, was impatient, and reminded him.
From the conversation between the two just now, he also heard that this person had some mental problems, but why did Cheng Shuqing buy him these medical books?
Can psychopaths understand this?
"Let's go! I'll show you there. Without waiting for Cheng Shuqing to answer, Aunt Wang turned around and walked into the corridor on the side.
On both sides of the corridor are rooms one after another, which can be seen through the windows, and the things inside are quite clean and tidy, all of them are some gray-haired old people, some with dull eyes, and some muttering to themselves.
It's hard to imagine that after a lifetime of hard work, they will have to die alone......
"They are so pitiful, I wonder if I will be like this when I am old?" Seeing this scene, Cheng Shuqing said with a wry smile.
"Don't worry! I'll be with you. Lu Chuan replied with a smile.
Cheng Shuqing was stunned for a moment, her pretty face drifted crimson, she felt that this sounded so awkward, and she glanced at him and said, "I don't need you to accompany me." ”
"You misunderstand, I mean, how could I, as a friend, let you be so lonely here? It's also good for everyone to get together often. ”
Cheng Shuqing was completely speechless, thinking to herself, could it be that I was thinking too much?
……
When the two followed Aunt Wang to a room at the end of the corridor, they smelled a smell of urine from afar, which made the three of them frown.
"There's the toilet around the corner next door, don't you know where to go when you pee? It makes the house stink. ”
There were traces of freshly washed water on the ground, and a woman in her fifties kept complaining as she swept the water outward.
Not far from the door, the feces and urine washed out by the water were mixed together, and the stench was emitted.
"Auntie, I'll come!" Obviously, Cheng Shuqing was very familiar with all this, and took two quick steps to say beside the woman.
"Forget it, girl, you are so clean and beautiful, how can you let you do this job?" The cleaning aunt looked at her, shook her head and refused.
It's no wonder that today's girls don't even bother to do laundry and cooking, how can they do such a disgusting job......
"I'll come anyway Auntie, I'm a security guard, and I'm used to doing this kind of dirty work." Lu Chuan stepped forward, reached out and took the broom in her hand and cleaned it up.
Originally, he couldn't wait to go in and see what this girl's so-called friend was like, but he didn't want to give up such a good opportunity to perform, so he still made a good impression first.
"This young man is ......," the aunt asked curiously.
"He's my friend." Cheng Shuqing felt a little awkward, the two had just met, were they friends?
"Well, this young man is good, although he is a security guard at work, he is loyal and honest at first glance, and he can endure hardships." may all belong to the bottom of the society, so the aunt praised Lu Chuan vigorously, paused and continued: "A girl should find a partner like this, you must not find those rich playboys, it is not reliable at all." ”
This aunt is also the open-mouthed type, obviously treating the two as lovers.
"Auntie, you misunderstood, we are just ordinary friends."
Cheng Shuqing was completely speechless, her pretty face was flushed with shame, and she thought to herself, where is this? How did you get to finding a partner?
"Yes, Auntie, we haven't gotten to the point you said we were." Lu Chuan also explained with a smile, but his explanation was easier to misunderstand.
Cheng Shuqing listened, her expression was even more embarrassed, and she thought to herself, "Just say that you just met?" Before that point, it is too easy to make people reverie.
"Isn't it sooner or later? But I'm not in a hurry, I can see that you are not very old......" Sure enough, the aunt thought that the two of them were too shy to admit it, so she smiled and glanced at the two of them.
"I'll go see him first." Cheng Shuqing didn't even bother to explain, and directly interrupted her words and walked into the room.
There was a bed and a desk in the room, and there were thick medical books on the table, and there was no need to guess that Cheng Shuqing bought it for him.
The bed was messy, and in the corner of the bed, squatted a middle-aged man in his fifties, with almost white hair, a scruffy beard, and a dirty body.
"Silly uncle, why are you sitting on the ground, hurry up." Cheng Shuqing hurriedly stepped forward and wanted to pull him up.
He didn't know the name of the middle-aged man, let alone where his home was, plus he was crazy, and after a long time, he began to call him that.
Silly Shu grinned and stretched out her hand, which was black and dirty, and it was still stained with feces and other residues, which made people disgusting.
"You...... How so? ”
Cheng Shuqing hurriedly took her little hand back, stomped her feet angrily and said, "If you do this again, I don't care, whatever you want!" ”
The more she spoke, the more excited she became, and her eyes began to flash with tears of grievance and continued: "How many nursing homes have you moved? My living expenses and the money for being a tutor were all spent on you, and now that I have graduated and have no job, I don't want to be dragged down by you anymore. ”
After finishing speaking, tears slid down his face and fell to the ground with a clatter, making people look pitiful.
"Alas! Don't be sad, how can you deal with a mentally ill person? ”
Lu Chuan only noticed at this time that although this girl's clothes were very decent and beautiful on her body, she had been wearing them for a long time, which could be seen in the whitening of the wash.
So what she said just now is true, she has paid a lot for this mentally ill person, but she just wonders what this man has to do with her?
Although the words were a little decisive, it could be heard from her words that she had done her best, so she couldn't blame this girl.
"What do you know? Am I doing something wrong? Cheng Shuqing retorted with sobs.
"That's right, that's right."
Lu Chuan thought to himself, you didn't say anything, I must not know anything, since you don't know anything, how can you know what you did right or wrong?
He also knew that now was not the time to figure it out, so he glanced at the stupid uncle and continued: "I'll go and give him a bath first, does he have any clean clothes?" ”
