Chapter 8 Reminder of Hospitalization Fees
"Okay, there you go. Liu Hanyan nodded, "I'll leave it to me here." By the way, who will take Lei Lei these two days?"
"Oh, Lei Lei is home alone, I asked the neighbor to help take care of it. He would plug in the rice cooker, make a steamed egg, cook instant noodles and so on. Speaking of her son, Shi Jinlan sighed unconsciously, "This is also no way, adults are in trouble, and he can only suffer a little guilt." ”
After waiting for Liu Keqing to relieve his little hand, Shi Jinlan left. Then, I didn't see her until noon.
Liu Hanyan was nothing, but Liu Keqing was a little anxious, thinking that Shi Jinlan was too inkblotted for a while, and worrying about whether she had encountered something on the road.
It wasn't until almost two o'clock that Shi Jinlan came over with a lunch box and lunch bucket, followed by the thirteen-year-old tiger-headed Liu Lei.
As soon as Shi Jinlan entered the door, she said slightly apologetically that after she withdrew the money, she bought some food and went home, then hurriedly cooked, and came over after eating. "I'm sorry to keep you waiting. Hungry, aren't you? ”
"What? You even ran home?" Liu Keqing was quite angry, his family was in a small town on the outskirts of the city, "It takes two hours to get back and forth by bus! It's really bad for you to think about it! Don't you know that Xiaoyan just came, I don't know anything, and it's not convenient for a girl to take care of me?"
"Aren't I worried that Lei Lei is alone at home?" Shi Jinlan pursed her mouth, quite aggrieved, "Besides, I want to make you some pork rib soup to make up for it." The things in this hospital are expensive and not tasty. ”
"Okay, Dad, don't blame Auntie. Liu Hanyan hurriedly persuaded, and then stretched out his hand to pull Liu Lei, "Lei Lei, let my sister take a look." I haven't grown a lot in two years. ”
"......" suddenly saw a beautiful girl, the little boy was a little shy, blushing and lowering his head slightly, and he couldn't even call his sister.
"Call my sister quickly. Liu Keqing urged his son.
But Shi Jinlan opened the thermos bucket and explained: "Lei Lei is starting to develop, and he is growing his body." Suddenly, a fragrant smell of pork ribs wafted out.
This made Liu Hanyan, who had only eaten two buns in the morning, feel even more hungry.
After eating, Liu Hanyan suddenly saw the silver chain around the neck of Liu Lei, who was lying on the side of the bed and wiping the corners of his father's mouth, and knew that it must be a gossip lock, and suddenly remembered that this gossip lock was Ling Haoran's, and walked over unconsciously.
"Lei Lei, show my sister your gossip lock. Liu Hanyan said as he reached out and pulled out the silver chain around Liu Lei's neck.
Although she had broken up with Ling Haoran, if this gossip lock was really an ancestral heirloom of his family, she still had to return it to him.
Liu Lei reflexively immediately pressed the gossip lock card that was about to pull out the collar: "Don't look at it." What's there to see, don't you have one too?"
Seeing this, Liu Keqing touched Liu Lei's head: "Why are you like a hedgehog?" ”
Liu Lei's face immediately flushed, and he covered the silver gossip and pulled his head low.
Seeing this, Shi Jinlan hurriedly said: "Oh, Xiaoyan, I'm sorry." Where was Yuan Shaowen after the year before and year after, Lei Lei overturned your gossip, and thought that you were better and more refined, so he quietly changed it. You're so old anyway, you won't wear it anymore, or you'll give it to your brother, right?"
And so it was!
Liu Hanyan swallowed his throat: "Oh, but I have to take a look, because one of my classmates gave it to me." If it doesn't matter, I'll give it to Lei Lei, but if it's his grandfather who left it, I'll give it back. ”
"Do you want to give it back to others?" Liu Lei stared at a pair of round black eyes and reluctantly pressed the gossip lock, "Since they have all given it to you, why do you have to pay it back?"
"If it's left by my grandfather, it's commemorative. Liu Hanyan had to explain patiently, "He also gave it to me when he was ignorant when he was a child." Lei Lei is obedient, show it to my sister. ”
"Show it to my sister. Liu Keqing endured the pain and touched Liu Lei's head and said.
Liu Lei reluctantly let go of his hand.
Liu Hanyan took out the quaint gossip lock carved with a gossip pattern on the front and four traditional characters written on the four corners of "longevity and wealth" to look carefully.
Liu Hanyan's heart didn't feel tight: Could this be a word in Ling Haoran's grandfather's name?
Because Liu Lei was reluctant to pout, Liu Hanyan had to let him wear it for the time being, and then change it next time he returned to his hometown. And promised to compensate him for another pair of roller skates. Liu Lei was silent.
At about four o'clock in the afternoon, the infusion was finally hanged. Shi Jinlan said that she would send her son home and bring dinner later. Liu Hanyan nodded and told her to go with confidence.
Probably because of the biological clock, by the afternoon, Liu Keqing's pain was getting worse and worse, and he couldn't help but moan.
The attending doctor checked the ward before leaving work, and Liu Hanyan asked him worriedly what was going on? The attending doctor said, "It's okay, it's normal." ”
After that, the head nurse in her thirties came over with a slip: "Thirty-seven beds Liu Keqing's family, the hospitalization deposit has run out, please do your best to pay another 20,000 yuan for hospitalization." ”
"Twenty thousand?" Liu Keqing frowned and gasped when she heard this, "It's only been a few days, and the thirty thousand yuan ran out last time?"
"yes. The head nurse, who was thin and tall, with some freckles on his face, nodded and said, "Your surgery requires bone grafting and lung lobe, and it was done in two consecutive surgeries, and it took 25,000 on the same day, and it has exceeded 30,000 as of just now." You can go downstairs in the lobby to check the list of hospitalizations. ”
"So many?" Liu Hanyan was not dumbfounded. No wonder it is said that it will cost hundreds of thousands of dollars when he is cured!
The cost of medical care in this economically developed coastal area is much more expensive than that in the mainland.
However, my stepmother only took out 10,000 yuan from the post office in the morning! What should I do with the remaining 10,000 yuan?
"This ......" Liu Keqing frowned and endured the pain and asked, "Head nurse, can we pay 10,000 yuan first? ”
"But you can, but 10,000 yuan won't take a few days, so you should do your best to raise money. The head nurse sighed lightly and turned away.
"Dad, don't you have any savings all these years?" asked Liu Hanyan with the payment slip and stopped talking.
When Liu Keqing heard this, she shook her head with a gloomy look: "Originally, your aunt took it to her hometown and asked her younger brother to help buy a house in Hugao County." But as soon as the down payment was made, your aunt spent tens of thousands of dollars due to breast cancer, and as a result, the house could only be sold to her brother. Originally, I thought that if the pocket was empty, as long as the person was safe, it would be fine. I didn't expect to be hit by this again......"
"In the future, I'm afraid there will be no place to borrow it! So, probably we have to be cheeky and ask you to ask Yuan Shaowen to lend it to us, otherwise what will Dad do? Will he be discharged from the hospital like this?" Liu Keqing said and shook his head, with an indescribable look of pain.
Liu Hanyan heard this, and his eyes immediately turned red: "Dad, don't worry, I'll go and borrow it from my uncle." When I graduate from college and make money, I will slowly return it to him. ”
"Well, good daughter, Daddy can only count on you now. Liu Keqing took Liu Hanyan's hand with a little peace of mind, "Dad had a bad temper when he was a teenager, and he was not a brother, so he often beat him, bullied him, grabbed his vegetables from time to time, tore up his books and notebooks, and forced him not to sue your grandfather." However, at that time, I was not sensible, and my mistakes were already wrong, what should I do? No matter how we are also a family, let him borrow money to save me in front of your mother-in-law. ”
"Uh-huh, I will. Liu Hanyan's heart hurts.
I just don't know if my uncle, who has been bullied for more than ten years and never returned home, is willing to forgive my father?
He took himself to Jianghai a few years ago, and it was already in front of his mother-in-law. He often supports himself, and now he is so good to himself, he is really very tolerant.
However, will they really help the people they hated the most in the past? This is hundreds of thousands, and even if they pay it back in the future, it will be better for many years. During this period, how much can he do with this money?
At half past seven in the evening, Shi Jinlan returned to the ward with a thermos bucket and a lunch box; when she heard that the deposit of 30,000 yuan had been used up, Liu Hanyan had just gone to pay 10,000 yuan, and she was about to raise hospital fees, and her face was also gloomy.
"Auntie, your body doesn't matter, right?" After dinner, after his father fell asleep, Liu Hanyan asked his stepmother Shi Jinlan in a low voice.
She is a kind-hearted girl, although her stepmother used to treat her badly, but now in this extraordinary period, she doesn't want to dwell on the past and worry about it. After all, Shi Jinlan had suffered from breast cancer, and she was just cured this year. This has to take care of her father and her younger brother, and she is worried that she will not be able to bear it.
"I'm fine. Shi Jinlan, who had a haggard face, shook her head with curly bangs, "Fortunately, my disease is still early, and it has been cut off." The doctor said that twenty years should be fine. ”
Twenty years is no problem, but that is under the premise of good conditioning. It's hard to say if you're as worried about it as you are now. However, in this situation, what can be done? Shi Jinlan can only swallow it in his heart alone.
"Oh. The innocent Liu Hanyan nodded, feeling a little more relaxed, "Auntie, it's okay now, you go to the side of the bed to sleep first." Dad wants to drink water, turn over or something, and I'm watching. ”
"It's fine. Shi Jinlan, who was already tired, nodded, "Then I'll sleep first, and I'll change you in the second half of the night." ”
"It's okay, you can sleep, I'll just doze off on the stool. You'll have to take care of my dad for a long time in the future. Liu Hanyan said sincerely.
"That's right, that's how he took care of me last time. Shi Jinlan opened the folding companion bed on the side and said, "Otherwise, how can you call it Xiangyu?"
"Mutual affection?" Liu Hanyan was stunned for a moment. Is it the deep relationship between her father and her, or is this the true meaning of husband and wife?
After Shi Jinlan lay down, she admonished again: "Xiaoyan, if your father wants to relieve him, call me, it's inconvenient for you to be a girl after all." ”
"Well, okay. Liu Hanyan nodded in response.
At this time, her mobile phone rang suddenly. Afraid of noisy patients resting, Liu Hanyan didn't look at anyone and connected first, then got up and walked out of the ward and closed the door.
