There was a hint of darkness in the old man's eyes: "My son-in-law doesn't want this child, saying that he is an ominous person who will bring disaster to the family, and if my daughter wants to keep this child, she will divorce my daughter." ”

Speaking of this, the old man couldn't hold back crying anymore: "The child is innocent, he is still so young, he doesn't know anything, why should he be named like this?" ”

Liu Shanshan cried when she heard this, she sniffed: "So your son-in-law, your daughter didn't plan to have this child, did she?" ”

The old man stopped talking.

Liu Shanshan sighed lightly, what age is it now, and there are still such superstitious people: "If the child can be saved, do you plan to leave the child behind?" ”

The old man nodded: "Well, I also have two sons, they are both very filial, I am sure they will agree." ”

Waiting for others is the most tormented.

Seeing that it was about to get dark, and the lights in the operating room had not been extinguished, the old man was nervous, rubbing his hands together constantly, and muttering to himself: "It's going to be fine, it's definitely going to be fine." ”

Liu Shanshan also waited outside for a long time, standing so numb that her feet were numb, she didn't listen to the call at all, she saw the old man walking around in the corridor, and her heart was also up and down: "Old man, can you stop, I'm almost confused by you." ”

The old man looked apologetic: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, I'm really worried about that child." ”

"I'm worried, too! But it's useless for you to walk around like this! Liu Shanshan rubbed her temples.

The old man's tears came out again.

Liu Shanshan had a headache: "Hey, don't cry!" ”

The old man squatted on the ground and kept sobbing, as if he had been greatly wronged.

After another half an hour, the door of the operating room opened, and Lu Qian took off her mask: "The operation was successful, and the intestines have returned to the body." However, the child cannot leave the hospital and must be observed in the hospital for one month. ”

When the old man heard this, he would be observed in the doctor for a month, and his heart sank: "Doctor, do you want a lot of money?" ”

Lu Qian: "Three or four thousand is wanted." ”

The old man hesitated for a long time before he discussed: "Doctor, can I go home and get the money?" ”

Lu Qian nodded: "Yes." ”

The old man has not been seen since he left the hospital.

Until the fifth day, Liu Shanshan couldn't help it: "Qianqian, did you say that the person didn't come, and she planned to throw the child to the hospital?" ”

Lu Qian's mind crossed the old man's struggle and crying, but there was no reluctance: "No." I should have borrowed money. ”

Liu Shanshan didn't believe it: "You are still too simple." In the countryside, three or four thousand is already too much. Who wants to pay so much money to heal a newborn child? ”

Lu Qian poked Liu Shanshan's forehead: "Don't think too badly of everyone, that old man is a kind person." ”

When Lu Qian grew up, she rarely looked at people.

But at the first glance of the old man, she couldn't help but take a look.

The old man was a hard-working man in the first half of his life, and he suffered a lot for this child in the second half of his life.

However, the turning point in her life was also in this child.

The old man came to the hospital half a month later, her feet trembled, she was carrying her luggage, and her chapped lips were blue and purple.

Liu Shanshan looked at the old man who was more tired, thinner, and more haggard than last time, and was full of shock: "You...... Where have you been for half a month? How did it come to this? ”

The old man's eyes were full of tears, but she was still strong and did not fall, she forced a smile on her face, and looked at Lu with cloudy eyes: "Doctor Lu, I can't take out so much money at once, can I owe the debt first?" ”

"I know there's no precedent for hospitals to owe money first, but I don't really have that much money."

Lu Qian didn't ask the reason, and nodded lightly: "Okay-"

The old man was surprised, she couldn't believe what she heard, she thought that if she said dry saliva, the other party would not agree, but she didn't expect it......

The old man looked at Lu Qian, who had a cold face, a person who was not related by blood, who could lend a helping hand to help her at a critical moment, and the son and daughter-in-law of the family were afraid that she would use the money on this child and let her get out of the house.

The more the old man thought about it, the more he felt cold.

Lu Qian didn't have to guess, she also knew what the old man had experienced during this time, she raised her lips and said lightly: "Old man, there is something to give, that child will not let you regret it, as long as you take it well, he will be your pride." ”

The old man didn't expect Lu Qian's heart to be like a mirror, and the tears that he could not hold back fell down, and he sat on the ground with his butt and hugged his knees with both hands, as if he had found an outlet to vent his grievances and cries during this time.

Liu Shanshan was dumbfounded, crying so sadly, did she want to flood the hospital: "Old man, don't cry, no matter how hard it is, it will pass." Doesn't it mean that you have to go through wind and rain before you see a rainbow? ”

The old man is uneducated and can't understand this, but she knows that from today on, she must be strong.

She wiped away the tears from her face and hiccuped several times in a row: "Thank you, Dr. Lu, thank you, you are all good doctors." ”

Lu Qian walked over and patted the old man on the shoulder: "Don't cry, you haven't seen your child for half a month, do you want to go and see it?" ”

The old man looked at Lu Qian in surprise: "Is it okay?" ”

Lu Qian nodded: "Yes." ”

Liu Shanshan is now not only a nurse, but also Lu Qian's assistant, she received Lu Qian's instructions and took the old man to the baby room.

This baby room was set up temporarily by the hospital.

The old man looked through the glass and looked at the child inside.

Small, black, hands dangling in the air, looking lively.

The old man wept excitedly: "Doctor, how is my grandson?" ”

Liu Shanshan told the old man about the child's situation: "The operation was very successful, we have been observing recently, the child is very obedient, and there are no sequelae or anything like that." However, our vice president said that in this case, it cannot be said that there will be 100% no other problems, so the child has to be observed in the hospital for a month to make sure that everything is normal before he can be brought back. ”

The old man took out two thousand yuan from his pocket and handed it to Liu Shanshan: "I handed over five hundred last time, here are two thousand, a total of two thousand five, this is all my belongings." How much I owe, when the hospital gives me an IOU, I will pay it slowly. ”

The money was wrapped in rags.

There are fifty, there are hundred, there are ten.

Some of the money has changed color.

Liu Shanshan thought of another question: "You gave it all to the hospital, what do you live on." ”

The old man smiled bitterly: "I can find a job." I'm not even fifty and can get a job. ”

Not to mention age, Liu Shanshan thought she was sixty years old: "This job is not easy to find!" Otherwise, I'll keep a hundred dollars on me. I'll help you figure out how to do your work. ”

The old man thanked again and again: "Thank you, thank you, you are all good people......"

Liu Shanshan smiled embarrassedly, good people are not good people, she doesn't know, she only knows that she is influenced by Lu Qian.

Liu Shanshan didn't have Lu Qian's way, and after asking for a day, she didn't find any good job for the old man, and when she sorted out the information, she looked at Lu Qian for help: "Vice Dean, I want to ask you for help with something." ”

The corners of Lu Qian's mouth twitched, if there was something, she was the vice president, and she was usually Qianqian: "What's the matter?" ”

Liu Shanshan told Lu Qian that she wanted to help the old man.

"You don't have to worry about this."

Liu Shanshan was dewy: "What do you mean, you don't want to help her?" ”

Lu Qian took out a job notice from the drawer: "This is what I asked for her." ”

When Liu Shanshan saw that it was the hospital's entry letter, she was slightly surprised, and her first reaction was: "She is uneducated, is it okay to work in the hospital?" Probably not a cleaner. We have cleaners in our hospital. ”

"Pretty much. Unlike other cleaners, she is only responsible for the work of the inpatient department, and she only needs to clean the quilts and hygiene of the inpatient department every day. ”

"What about wages?"

"Fifty more than you."

Liu Shanshan gasped and became jealous in an instant: "Why are you taller than me?" ”

Lu Qian asked rhetorically: "Why can't I be taller than you?" People are hard-earned money in exchange for labor, and being a coolie is much more tiring than being a nurse. ”

Liu Shanshan pouted: "When will you give me a salary increase?" ”

She's running at both ends now, and she's dying of exhaustion.

Lu Qian gave her a light smile: "Your salary is stipulated by the state, and it is not for me to decide." ”

Liu Shanshan rolled her eyes: "Don't come to this set." As long as you say a few more words in front of the leader, you will definitely give me a salary increase. Besides, I'm doing two jobs now, and it's normal to raise my salary. ”

Lu Qian didn't want to talk to her too much: "I'll talk about the salary increase later, you can get busy first." ”

Before leaving, Liu Shanshan also advised: "You must remember, don't forget." ”

***

When the old man received the employment notice, his face showed a touch of ecstasy, his hands trembled, and it took a long time to find his voice: "This ...... This is for me, I ...... Can I really work in a hospital? ”

Liu Shanshan looked at the old man's expression, nodded slightly, and her voice was a little softer than usual: "Yes." ”

The old man barely knelt down and thanked him: "Thank you, thank you." ”

This is the credit of the vice president, Liu Shanshan didn't dare to ask for credit: "I don't have that much ability, this is a good job that the vice president found for you, the salary is higher than mine, and they envy me to death." ”

Liu Shanshan said the truth, and her tone was sour.

In this era, people with jobs always think that they are a grade higher than others and look down on those who are farmers.

The old man also thought that these doctors had the same sense of distance as the people with units he had seen before.

After coming into contact, I learned that these doctors were very kind and did not look down on the peasants.

"Thank you, Vice Dean, and thank you." The old man couldn't put it down and rubbed the employment notice in his hand.

A good job means that you don't have to worry about food and clothing in this life, and the old man looked at this piece of paper as if in a dream: "It's good, the country is getting better and better, and I am taking care of the peasants more and more." ”

In fact, she only had more than 300 belongings in her entire family, and the rest were all borrowed.

I owe so much debt, I am very stressed, I can't sleep at night, and I am always worried that I will not be able to pay off my foreign debts.

Now that I have a job, I don't have to worry about that, as long as I work hard and get a salary, I can pay off my debts.

And so on –
