Chapter 14: Grandma is seriously ill
College life is easy, and there are fewer classes, from the nervousness of high school to the slow life of college. Many people have begun to fall, skip classes, go to Internet cafes, fall in love...
Chen Youdao has always insisted on delivering takeaway in his spare time to supplement his living expenses.
After delivering takeout, Chen Youdao returned to the dormitory at 9 o'clock in the evening. The two roommates bought a computer and now spend their days in the dormitory playing games.
Suddenly, Chen Youdao's mobile phone rang his father's phone, and his father had not called him since he came with his mobile phone.
"Hey, Dad. ”
"Your grandmother is seriously ill, you can go home tomorrow and come to the county hospital to see her, she has been thinking about you. Chen Changgui still didn't say much, and his voice was a little choked.
Chen Youdao suddenly felt that his eyes were dark, the phone fell heavily to the ground, and cracks appeared on the screen, but he was still stunned in place, without the slightest intention of picking up the phone.
"Youdao, what's wrong with you?" Chen Shuang and Zhang Tao stopped the game in their hands and asked with concern.
"My grandmother is seriously ill. ”
"No, I'll have to go back and see. Chen Youdao picked up his mobile phone and called Gao Zhengcai, but no one answered, and no one answered.
"Youdao, don't worry, what's wrong. Chen Shuang patted Chen Youdao on the shoulder and asked.
"My grandmother is seriously ill and hospitalized, and she is thinking about me now, and I am afraid that something will happen to her. Chen Youdao's eyes were red at this time, and his voice was choked.
"Let's go, I'll send you back. Chen Shuang pulled Zhang Tao and followed Chen Youdao downstairs.
"Get in the car. Chen Shuang walked in front of an Audi A7, unlocked the car, and galloped away with the two.
"Chen Shuang, hurry up. Chen Youdao was a little restless in the car, eager to fly back immediately, and kept urging Chen Shuang to drive quickly.
Along the way, Chen Shuang and Zhang Tao looked at Chen Youdao anxiously, with a gloomy face, so they didn't speak, one looked at the navigation, and the other concentrated on driving. Speeding all the way, the original two-hour journey was rushed by Chen Shuang in an hour.
Before the car stopped, Chen Youdao opened the car door and rushed to the hospital, and Chen Shuang and the others quickly stopped the car and hurried to follow.
I had already called Chen Changgui in the car, and my grandmother had just been transferred out of the intensive care unit and had just undergone chemotherapy surgery.
The elevator stopped on the third floor, there were several rows of seats in the corridor, and Chen Youdao walked out of the elevator and saw Chen Changgui sitting on the seat smoking a cigarette, with a haggard face.
"Dad, where's grandma?" Chen Youdao asked anxiously.
"In Ward Three, go see for yourself. Chen Changgui raised his hand holding the cigarette and pointed westward.
Chen Youdao was anxious to know his grandmother's situation, so he didn't say much, and ran towards the No. 3 ward.
The room was quiet, and the lights seemed to be a little dim for some years. In addition to the grandmother lying on the bed in the ward, there is another person sitting on the edge of the bed, who is also a little older, it is the grandmother's sister, the aunt who lives in the next village.
Seeing Chen Youdao coming in, my aunt stood up, "Youdao, you're here." ”
"Grandma. Seeing that the tears in the eyes of the old man who was taking care of his grandmother in front of him had not yet dried, Chen Youdao screamed and ran to the bed.
I saw my grandmother lying on the hospital bed, her face was dull, her eyes were sometimes open and sometimes closed, she couldn't see her brown pupils, her eyes were sunken, her dry lips were pruning, she was whispering and shouting "Dao'er", and her snow-white hair had fallen out a lot.
Chen Youdao looked at the person in front of him, his heart ached, and his tears couldn't stop flowing.
"Grandma, grandma, I'm back. Chen Youdao cried and shouted, holding the wrinkled and rough hand.
seemed to feel Chen Youdao's call, and a trace of tears flowed out of the corner of her grandmother's eyes, but she couldn't open her eyes.
"Your grandmother has a hard life, and she has to suffer this crime at this age, and the doctor said that she has advanced breast cancer. Grandma cried and said to Chen Youdao.
"Breast cancer is advanced. Like a thunderbolt in the clear sky, it hit Chen Youdao's heart, and he was instantly dumbfounded, his eyes glazed.
"The doctor said that it could not be cured, and suggested that we go to the big hospital in the city. ”
"I'll go to the doctor and ask. ”
Chen Youdao came out of the door, "Doctor, doctor." ”
"Doctor, how is my grandmother? Is it really incurable?"
"She's had breast cancer for a long time, maybe she's been in some pain and hasn't told you, and now it's terminal. The doctor said with some sadness. "It is recommended to transfer to the city hospital, after all, the equipment and drugs there are more developed. ”
"Okay, doctor, please arrange it, I'll take my grandmother to the city hospital now. ”
On the second day, he went through the transfer procedures, entrusted a hospital escort, accompanied by his aunt and grandmother, and Chen Youdao and others returned home with Chen Changgui to get money and some clothes.
When he returned home, the home without his grandmother seemed empty, so Chen Youdao casually beckoned Chen Shuang and Zhang Tao to sit down and follow his father to pack some things.
"Changgui, Changgui. ”
Someone outside was shouting that it was Shigong Huang Daoist who was coming.
"Master. ”
"Master. ”
"Youdao is back too. How's your grandma? The zodiac asked.
Chen Youdao didn't speak, Chen Changgui sighed and said: "The situation is not optimistic, the terminal stage of cancer, after chemotherapy, it can be supported for a period of time with drugs." ”
"Well, I'll go with you to visit. The zodiac priest said after a moment of silence.
A group of five people went to Shashi Hospital. On the way, Chen Youdao had already entrusted Su Qian to help contact the doctor.
When she arrived at the hospital, Su Qian was already waiting at the door, wearing sunglasses and a mask, and her slender figure was very recognizable.
"Chen Youdao, why are you people here, what about your grandmother?"
"Mr. Su, my grandmother is in the ambulance, transferred over, it should be almost there. After Chen Youdao finished speaking, he briefly introduced each other, and added: "Chen Shuang, Zhang Tao, thank you, you go back to class first." ”
"We're used to skipping classes, so let's stay with you, maybe we can help. ”
"Okay. ”
Soon, the ambulance arrived, and the efficiency of Shashi Hospital was very fast, and after a while, grandma was arranged into the ward, maybe Su Qian's efficiency was very fast, and grandma was ready to do chemotherapy after a while.
Su Qian arranged everything properly and paid Chen Youdao 80,000 yuan in advance.
"Thank you, Mr. Su, I will find a way to repay you the money. ”
"You're welcome, just take it as if I borrowed you, accompany your grandmother well, I still have some advance left. ”
Su Qian didn't stay any longer, turned around and left.
"Chen Youdao, who is this woman?" After Su Qian left, Chen Changgui couldn't help but ask.
"My boss who works part-time during the summer vacation. ”
"Although she is kind-hearted, we still can't owe others, I still have 60,000 yuan here, you take it and pay it back to others first. ”
"Dad, I'll find a way to deal with money, don't worry about it first, grandma's recovery is the most important thing. ”
Chen Changgui's face was gloomy, he stopped talking, and squatted alone in the corner and smoked, one after another.
Chen Youdao didn't have the heart to think about it, and waited anxiously at the door.
"There is a way, fate is determined by heaven, fortune is born by oneself, maybe the doctor can't cure your grandmother, but you can. Huang Daoshi walked over and said to Chen Youdao.
"Master, what do you mean by that?"
"The Beidou Sutra has the ability to return to life and die, you learn the Beidou Sutra, isn't it easy to save your grandmother?"
"Master, I read that you are an elder, please don't joke at this time. Chen Youdao was a little angry, he could still say such things at this time, and he was so angry that he turned around and left.
"Hey. The zodiac priest was helpless.
Not long after, my grandmother had already undergone chemotherapy and was transferred to the nursing unit. Grandma had regained consciousness, but she looked very weak.
"Grandma. Chen Youdao knelt in front of the bed with red eyes, trembling and holding his grandmother's hand.
"Dao'er. Grandma smiled a little pale and limp. "Don't cry, child, sooner or later when people get old, grandma is much better, let's take grandma back later." ”
Chen Youdao knew that his grandmother was distressed about money, "Grandma, the doctor said that it would be fine if you stay in the hospital for a few days, and it won't cost much if you have a small cold." ”
"Don't lie to grandma, how can a small cold be transferred to the city hospital. Go back, grandma can hold on. ”
"Grandma, don't think about it, take a good rest. ”
Everyone did not disturb the two grandparents in front of them, but the Huang Daoist came to the bed, observed the grandmother's face, checked the pulse, and then picked up a hair at the head of the bed and left.
Grandma was still very weak, Chen Youdao and the others didn't bother any more, and went out to stay in the corridor outside.
"Doctor, how is my mother? Chen Changgui asked the doctor.
"The effect is not very good, the recovery ability of the elderly is too poor, and the damage to the body from chemotherapy is too great, I am afraid that the situation is not optimistic. I can't continue chemotherapy anymore, I guess there is still a month left. ”
"No, doctor, I beg you, you must save my grandma, we will find a way to save the money, please save my grandma. After hearing this, Chen Youdao knelt down directly for the doctor, crying and begging. Chen Changgui on the side couldn't pull it up.
"Young man, I can understand your filial piety, but there is really nothing you can do, sorry. The doctor looked at Chen Youdao helplessly.
At this time, Chen Youdao felt as if his body had been hollowed out, and he sat on the ground like soft mud.
Chen Changgui also sat in the corner with his hair pulled. How powerless.
"There is a way, you come here, I have something to tell you. The zodiac priest saw Chen Youdao, who was in a state of collapse, and came over to say.
Chen Youdao looked at the zodiac priest in front of him, his eyes were dull, and he didn't move.
I saw that the zodiac priest directly lifted a chicken and threw Chen Youdao in the corner of the wall at the end of the corridor, which shocked everyone.
"I can save your grandma. ”
A glimmer of light flashed in Chen Youdao's desperate eyes, and he looked at the serious zodiac priest in front of him, "Really?"
"Really. ”
"How can I save it?"
"I have my own way, I can make your grandmother recover tomorrow and live a healthy life for another twenty years. But you have to promise me one condition. ”
"Okay, don't say one condition, I'll give you my life. ”
Huang Daoshi instructed Chen Youdao to let everyone in the ward go out, and at this time, only Chen Youdao and Huang Daoshi were left in the ward, as well as the seriously ill grandmother.
