Chapter 2 Returning Home
"What's not sick, there's nothing else to have money." This month, Zhang Lan deeply realized the content of this sentence, because of his father's illness, the ICU spent nearly 100,000 yuan in ten days, and it was one or two thousand every day when he went out of the ICU and entered the ward, plus the drugs used outside the medical insurance, and the 24-hour escort, nearly 200,000 a month, and now he still can't even get up. It's not okay to use an escort all the time, not to mention a few hundred yuan a day, what to do after being discharged from the hospital, and you still have to do treatment after being discharged.
Zhang Lan's parents are farmers, her father works all year round, and her mother farms at home. Zhang Lan is thirty years old this year, last year in order to get married in the city bought a house, and now has to repay thousands of yuan of mortgage every month, fortunately, when I bought the house, I took into account that my parents are getting older, and the purchase is very close to the hospital.
Looking at the phone, it was almost eight o'clock, Zhang Lan and the nurse Aunt Chen said, "Aunt Chen, go home, it's not early, just have me here." ”
Aunt Chen, the nurse, took out her mobile phone and looked at it, got up and said, "Okay, now there is one more bottle of liquid to be finished, and the rest will be available after ten o'clock in the evening, so I'll leave first." ”
"Well, you go, it's okay. My mom and I are here. ”
Zhang Lan asked for 24 hours before, but then she thought that she was about to be discharged from the hospital, and her father's condition was stable. I only invited one day, and at night Zhang Lan watched by herself, and her mother rested on the side. In this way, when he is discharged from the hospital to take care of his father, he will be able to get started.
When Zhang Lan's father was just out of the ICU, there were tubes all over his body, and he and his mother didn't know how to do it. The doctor asked to turn over every two hours, and he and his mother didn't dare to do anything when they watched. It wasn't until I hired a nurse and watched people learn that I became familiar with it a little bit.
Staring at the ticking liquid, Zhang Lan was thinking about the plan in his mind, whether to give it a try. But after thinking about it, forget it, go back and try it yourself.
----
In the blink of an eye, it was time to be discharged.
The original plan was to transfer directly to the rehabilitation department after being discharged from the hospital, but in the past few days, Zhang Lanna has done a few mouse experiments by herself, and during this time, she has visited the rehabilitation department a few times, and feels that she should go home for a few days first, try her own methods, and then decide whether to go to the rehabilitation department or not.
Zhang Lan asked the rehabilitation doctor, the first three months are the golden recovery period, but because his father still can't get up and can only stay in bed, even reclining on the bed for a long time will cause vomiting, indicating that the edema caused by cerebral congestion has not recovered well, even rehabilitation exercises can not do a few items, basically simple acupuncture and limb function maintenance, more rehabilitation projects can not be done until there is no clinical response.
Zhang Lan discussed with her mother Li Ying and decided to go home first. The rest will come later.
Originally, Zhang Lan planned to go back to the house in the city, but her mother Li Ying and father Zhang Dahai did not agree, after all, Zhang Lan has resigned now, and her hometown is not particularly far from the city, and it is only an hour by car. When you go back to your hometown, at least you will have to save more money on food and drink than in the city.
Zhang Lan rented a private ambulance, paid 300 yuan, and asked her mother Li Ying to take her father home with the car first, and he drove his own car back to pull all kinds of things. He has already cleaned up the house, and everything will be talked about when he gets home.
The ambulance took his father Zhang Dahai and mother Li Ying home, and Zhang Lan called his cousin Zhang Hu in the village and asked him to help take care of it when he arrived, and he would be late to go back here.
Zhang Lan first went to the outpatient clinic to prescribe the medicine that her father Zhang Dahai wanted to take for a month, and then went to the Chinese medicine pharmacy on the street to buy a large package of Chinese medicine, and bought a few boxes of silver needles. But when Zhang Lan smelled the medicinal herbs, he felt that the effect might be different from the memory medicine transmitted in the game, so he didn't buy more, and he was more unsure if it was effective.
Originally, after giving herself acupuncture for the past two days, Zhang Lan already had a lot of confidence, but looking at the large package of Chinese medicine in his hand, the most important items in the memory prescription have either been banned for a long time, or the effect of the medicine is obviously not good. I can only go back and study how to replace it.
When Zhang Lan drove home, the house had been packed, Zhang Lan took down the things in the car and put them in the house, his father Zhang Dahai was lying on the bed in the back room, and his mother Li Yingzheng was talking to his uncle Zhang Dajiang.
Zhang Lan said hello, and then worked inside and out, he didn't go home for a month, although he probably cleaned up, but it was summer, he didn't go home for a month, and a lot of things had to be sorted out.
Things have happened, and people have to look forward. Zhang Lan now feels that it is much better to be busy than to rest. Although her mother didn't mention it to Zhang Lan this month, Zhang Lan knew what her mother was worried about. Buying a house last year has emptied the family's funds, this year my father Zhang Dahai got such a big illness again, Zhang Lan later resigned, my father Zhang Dahai is now like this has picked up a life, and now he has to take medicine every month after being discharged from the hospital, and Zhang Lan himself has to repay the mortgage.
Not long after Zhang Lan just talked about his girlfriend, since his father Zhang Dahai fell ill, except for a visit in the ICU at the beginning, he has not been here since. Mother Li Ying didn't ask once, Zhang Lan started to contact WeChat a few times, and she hasn't talked about it once in the past half a month.
As long as people are still there, they can eventually get by. Originally, I thought it was difficult, but now that I have the game skills to possess her, Zhang Lan feels that there is a providence in the dark.
Zhang Lan's house is a very ordinary rural red brick house, but it is large in size, and the vegetable field outside the yard is larger. Although he was not at home for a month, his neighbors helped him take care of the house. The beans and cucumbers are lush, and the green cabbage and cabbage are even more vigorous.
Mother Li Ying talked to the neighbors who came to visit her father from time to time, Zhang Lan picked vegetables to cook, and the vegetables were all in her own vegetable plot, and when she came back from the city, Zhang Lan bought freshly killed pork belly and a domestic free-range chicken in the town.
Zhang Lan's master-level cooking skills have been vividly demonstrated in the last few days to bring food to his mother, and when she saw Zhang Lan's cooking, her mother Li Ying did not stop her, but said with a smile to her uncle Zhang Dajiang: "Big brother and sister-in-law are eating here at noon today, Zhang Lan's skills are very good now, and they are not worse than the chefs in the restaurant." ”
Uncle Zhang Dajiang is in his 60s and almost 70 years old this year, he was a soldier when he was young, and he farmed at home when he returned from the army. His son Zhang Hu is two years older than Zhang Lan, is married, and has two children, the eldest of whom is in elementary school. Zhang Hu has nearly 100 acres of land in the village, and his life is also prosperous.
Zhang Dajiang got up when he heard his mother Li Ying's words and said, "No, no, Huzi is at home, your sister-in-law and I will be home in a while, so I won't eat here." ”
