Chapter XXXVIII
Xie Bin looked at the old man's eyes, the old man was a little kind and pitying, and a little reluctant, suddenly Xie Bin thought of his grandfather, and the old man at that time often looked at him and sighed, but at that time Xie Bin didn't understand why.
And now, Xie Bin really understands that his grandfather is also not worried about him, but he can't help it, just like the current old man Zhao. It's just that at that time, Xie Bin's grandfather didn't have anyone to entrust, and Xie Bin was a boy, and his grade was not young.
And now Guoguo is a girl, and she is only so old, and she is still in elementary school. Thinking of this, Xie Bin nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, I will treat Guoguo as my own sister." ”
Old Man Zhao smiled slightly when he heard this, and said with a smile as if he was relieved: "I'm relieved to have your words, haha, I know that you are a responsible man." ”
Xie Bin secretly clenched his fists, cheering for himself, taking responsibility, he is no longer the Xie Bin who feeds the whole family and is not hungry, he will not only be Li Jingjing's husband, but also the son-in-law of his father-in-law's mother-in-law, and also the apprentice of his two teachers, and now he is Guoguo's brother.
Thinking of this, Xie Bin suddenly felt that he had something more on his body.
More than half a month after Guoguo started school, the old man was finally able to be discharged from the hospital. In fact, he could have been discharged from the hospital a few days earlier, but Xie Bin felt that it was better to be safe, so he gave the old man a full body examination and made sure that there was no problem before applying for discharge. Anyway, I've been here for more than a month, and I don't care about these days.
The old man can now walk alone, eat and go to the toilet, except for his slow movements, he is no different from a normal person. Just thinking about the old man in the past, and then looking at the old man now, Xie Bin is a little sad, is it really impermanence?
On the day of discharge, Director Wang and Dr. Yang both came over, Director Wang gave a final examination, and said with a smile: "Very good, everything is normal, after going back, you should take a good look at yourself, eat more food to replenish vitality, you can do some gentle exercises, you can also write or something, recuperate, and after a while, you can return to your previous state." ”
Xie Bin secretly thought, if he can return to his previous state, it will be called hell, it would be very good to be able to have half of his previous state. But he didn't dare to say that, just smiled and said to the old man: "Old Zhao, this is Director Wang, I was tired when I did the operation." ”
Old man Zhao smiled: "Thank you, thank you, hard work." ”
Director Wang smiled and shook his head, "I want to thank you or thank Xiao Xie and your little granddaughter, these two were tired a while ago." ”
Xie Bin hurriedly interrupted: "Let's stop saying these kind words, Director Wang, have time to have another meal together at noon?" ”
"Forget it at noon, let's do it another day," Director Wang said with a smile, "There will be surgery in the afternoon." ”
Xie Bin nodded, anyway, there is their mobile phone number, it is not too late to settle the old man first and then invite them to dinner, if the old man has any situation in the future, he will have to use others, and it is always good to have multiple friends.
helped the old man into the car and took down a few salutes. In fact, there is nothing left, mainly drinks and nutritional products sent by the old man's students and friends, mostly milk. However, Xie Bin was sent out, especially the nurses who were responsible for checking the old man's body every day, and their small offices were almost full of Xie Bin.
Even so, Xie Bin still has a bunch of them here, enough for the old man to drink for a while, and these are all good things.
After packing up the things in the ward, go to the lobby to settle the bill. The old man has insurance, and there are other benefits, but it doesn't really cost much. However, there was no way to reimburse the medicines that Xie Bin bought outside, at first a bottle of four hundred and eight, and then it rose to five hundred and four, a total of fourteen bottles were bought, and it cost more than seven thousand. But the old man didn't know about it, so Xie Bin didn't say it, to be honest, now he really doesn't take money to heart, let alone this little money.
After settling the bill, Xie Bin took Guoguo up to the eighth floor and called nurse Xiao Li out at the door of the intensive care unit. Seeing Xie Bin and Guoguo, Xiao Li was also a little surprised, "Why did you two come over?" Is the old man okay? ”
Xie Bin nodded, "Thank you for taking care of you," he said, "Guoguo, thank you, sister nurse." ”
Guoguo walked over and hugged Xiao Li, and said crisply, "Thank you, sister," she said, took out a shopping card and handed it over, "Sister, you are a good person, thank you." ”
Xiao Li touched Guoguo's face and looked at Xie Bin suspiciously.
Xie Bin smiled and said, "Take it, a little girl's heart." ”
Xiao Li accepted the card, but she didn't know that there was a full 10,000 yuan in the card, otherwise she wouldn't dare to accept it. Of course, Guoguo didn't know that Xie Bin did it himself. It can be regarded as a good reward for good people. If Xiao Li hadn't taken care of her in the first two days, no one knew what would have happened to Guoguo alone.
When I went downstairs, Xie Bin and Guoguo were in the elevator, Guoguo took Xie Bin's hand, and suddenly said, "Brother Bin, you are also a good person." ”
Xie Bin smiled slightly, touched Guoguo's head and didn't speak. But there is a little churning in my heart, good man? If he was still the same Xie Bin as before, he probably wouldn't be able to help much even if he wanted to.
Let's not talk about whether he will waste more than a month in vain to help an old man who doesn't have too deep friendship, even if he is willing to help, he won't help much. Not to mention anything else, just giving these people a little bit can make Xie Bin feel distressed to death, plus the medical fees paid in advance and the dozen or so bottles of leukemia protein, which is enough to make Xie Bin bankrupt.
At that time, Xie Bin couldn't even take care of himself, so what could he talk about taking care of others? If you don't have a certain strength and foundation, it's good to take care of yourself. If Xie Bin had taken care of the old man like this before, maybe some people would suspect that Xie Bin had bad intentions.
As it is now, several of the old man's students also suspected Xie Bin's motives, but now that the Internet consultation is particularly developed, Xie Bin is also a person who has shown his face, so those people didn't say anything. Otherwise, the topic of a destitute vendor who leaves his livelihood to take care of a lonely old man with no children and a million-dollar family will always make most people want to go somewhere else.
The old man's home is not far from the hospital, less than half an hour's drive. As early as half a month ago, when Guoguo started school, Xie Bin knew the road, and now Xie Bin still has a set of keys in his hand.
This community is also a high-end community, all of which are six-storey, the old man is on the second floor, and more than 100 square meters are more than enough to live with grandparents and grandchildren. Fortunately, it's only the second floor, otherwise, it will be a problem for the old man to go up and down the stairs every day in the future.
When going upstairs, Xie Bin wanted to help the old man, but he was refused, and he walked up step by step by himself holding the handrail. If this had been placed in the past, the old man would never have cared about the second floor, which was less than a hundred steps, but now he had walked for almost five minutes, and he was already a little out of breath after he got upstairs.
Sitting on the sofa, the old man sighed and said, "Alas, it's really old, and it's not okay if you don't accept it." ”
Xie Bin smiled and sat down, but Guoguo had already made tea. Looking at Guoguo's back, Xie Bin said in a low voice: "Don't run around when you are okay in the future, I will help you find a full-time nanny to serve you, and take Guoguo to and from school." ”
The old man smiled and patted his thigh: "I can't run even if I want to, and I can only bask in the sun on the balcony in the future." ”
Xie Bin nodded, didn't speak again, but his heart was even more sad, this person is really guilty when he is old, and it is better to say that if he has a disease like a half-body paralysis, some children are unwilling to serve, especially the kind that lasts for a long time. And the old man, who has no children and no daughters, is even more miserable, but fortunately, the old man should still have a little family background and can hire someone to serve him, otherwise he can really only wait for death, and he will also affect Xiaoguoguo.
After sending Guoguo back from school, the old man said to Xie Bin: "Xie Bin, help me transfer the 'Sibao Zhai', I can't get it anymore, alas, change some money to come back for the elderly, and it can be regarded as leaving a way back, I really regret not listening to you at the beginning." ”
Xie Bin smiled, he told the old man when he passed by last time that he should be cautious when he started again. The old man said at the time that he had quit, and he would no longer make these calligraphy and paintings of unknown origin in the future. At that time, Xie Bin was a little unimpressed, and felt that it was difficult for the old man to control his hands. Sure enough, it's only been more than half a year, and the old man really planted this painting, and not only lost some money, but also almost put this old life into it.
Although Xie Bin doesn't understand those medical terms, he also knows that the old man's situation is indeed very dangerous, and he will never wake up if he is not careful, and he doesn't know how the fat embolism appeared, anyway, it sounds very scary.
But fortunately, the old man was fine, and finally passed this hurdle safely.
Seeing that the old man's opinion on transferring the shop was very resolute, Xie Bin didn't say anything, and contacted his father-in-law, saying that there was an antique shop here to transfer, and asked him if he was interested. In fact, Xie Bin knew that his father-in-law would not be unmoved, the antique shop here in Confucius Temple was not inferior to that in the capital Panjiayuan, as long as he worked hard, he would definitely not lose money.
And Xie Bin's father-in-law doesn't need to run it himself, as long as he gets the store, he has his own manager and shopkeeper and other people in charge, and the source of goods is more abundant, Li Guohui runs such a large group, so he naturally has his own supply channels.
Li Guohui was very interested, but in the face of Xie Bin's price of six million, he still hesitated a little, and said with a smile: "Why do you kid turn your elbow outward?" Who is it? ”
Xie Bin told the old man about it, but Li Guohui didn't say anything more, saying that someone would go over to handle the formalities soon. This is also Xie Bin helping others transfer the store, if Xie Bin uses the money himself, Li Guohui will definitely not hesitate. It is said that between the two Weng sons-in-law, the degree of mutual trust is indeed extraordinary, when Li Guohui took away a bright green Eight Immortals across the sea ornament from Xie Bin's store, but he didn't count a penny.
In other words, Xie Bin and Li Jingjing are not officially married, but it is quite rare for Xie Bin to get along with Li Guohui's family to this extent.
