Chapter 171: A Serious Illness Ruins the Family
The bright moon was slanting westward, it was already more than eleven o'clock in the middle of the night, the two got dressed, walked out of the toilet, walked behind the door hand in hand, respectively, Zhang Yuhua wrapped her arms around Zhao Yunfei's neck, probed her tongue directly into Zhao Yunfei's mouth, kissed for a while, she said: "I still want to come tomorrow." β
Zhao Yunfei thought for a while and said, "Is it convenient to come out?"
Zhang Yuhua looked charming, and said softly: "Convenient, there is still half a bottle of Lao Baigan." β
Zhao Yunfei didn't say anything, he acquiesced.
Opening the door a crack, Zhao Yunfei looked out, saw that there was no one in the alley, turned back to Zhang Yuhua and said, "You go ahead, I will follow you from afar." β
Zhang Yuhua smiled and nodded.
Zhao Yunfei's house is not far from Zhang Yuhua's house, and the village is not big, Zhao Yunfei followed her from afar, and watched her enter the gate before coming back.
When Zhang Yuhua got home, she saw that the second dog was sleeping darkly, she tucked the back corner of the second dog, undressed herself on the kang, lay in the quilt and recalled the scene just now, and fell asleep contentedly.
Zhao Yunfei and Zhang Yuhua had a party for two nights in a row, this kind of thing is like a drug, as long as you taste it, it will be difficult to quit again, after that, Zhang Yuhua will sneak to Zhao Yunfei's house and Zhao Yunfei to fall in love, with the nourishment of a man, the more she shines, and her personality has become much more cheerful.
On this day, after Zhao Yunfei got off work, after dinner, soaked Xiaoji's dirty clothes in a basin and squatted in the courtyard to wash, only to see Han Tuo riding into the yard, getting on the car and saying, "Do you know that something happened to Xiaofang's family?"
Zhao Yunfei was stunned for a moment, stopped what he was doing, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Han Tuo frowned and said, "Uncle Li is hospitalized, and I only found out about it." β
"I've been working in the contractor team these days, haven't I heard of it?
Zhao Yunfei stood up and was about to go to the front yard, but Han Tuo stopped him and said, "Don't go, I just belonged, there was no one in the front yard, it should be all in the hospital, I listened to what my mother said, saying that it is uremia, it is a disease that cannot be cured." β
Zhao Yunfei listened, his heart chuckled, he had also heard of this disease, although he didn't know what the specific disease was, but he knew that this disease was difficult to treat, and it was expensive, so he frowned and asked, "Where are you hospitalized?"
Han Tuo shook his head and said, "My mother also heard from others, saying that it was in the county hospital, and Xiaofang didn't come to class for a day today......
Zhao Yunfei's expression immediately darkened, he knew that Li Lanfang was very strong, attached great importance to studying, and never missed class easily, it seemed that her father's illness was really serious, otherwise she would not ask for leave.
Zhao Yunfei walked quickly to the basin stand and pulled down a towel to wipe his hands, and said, "Xiaofang doesn't know what kind of rush will be now, I'll go into the city and go to the county hospital to have a look." β
Han Tuo said: "I'll go too, you clean up, I'll go home and tell my mother, let's gather under the big locust tree in the west of the village." Saying that, Han Tuo rode out of the gate.
Zhao Yunfei put on his coat, took out the regular passbook from the big closet, took all the 1,500 yuan in cash from the family with him, instructed Xiao Ji to look after the house, and called Xiao Hei into the house to be Xiao Ji's company, asked Xiao Ji to buckle the door from the inside, pushed the mountain bike out of the yard, and wrapped the big iron gate with iron wire from the outside.
Riding out of the village, in the afterglow of the sunset, I saw that Han Tuo was already waiting under the big locust tree, Han Tuo saw Zhao Yunfei coming, flew into the car, and the two pedaled the car quickly towards the direction of the county.
There are two larger hospitals in Fengming County, one is a county hospital and the other is a branch of the regional people's hospital, and Li Lanfang's father Li Zhong lives in the county hospital.
As the saying goes, there is no other disease, nothing else no money, Li Zhong has been in the train station by carrying a large package car to earn money, this is pure manual work, the implementation of the piecework wage system, carry more to earn more, carry less to earn less, on average can have an income of 2,000 yuan per month, originally a family of three, no burden, planting a little land, life is loose and beautiful, in the village is more than the upper than the bottom, who knows that there are unforeseen circumstances, people have good fortune and misfortune.
On Saturday, a batch of emergency supplies suddenly came to the railway station and needed to be loaded overnight to be transported to the south, Li Zhong was unwilling to work the night shift, the age was not forgiving, he was already in his forties, his physical strength was not as good as before, and he couldn't slow down for several days after doing a night shift, and he had been unwell for a while, but the foreman gave a death order, these materials must be loaded overnight, if anyone does not work overtime, then there is no need to come again tomorrow, Li Zhong has no choice but to stay and continue to work.
That batch of work was done at five o'clock in the morning, when the work was finished, Li Zhong sweated all over, and he also felt strange, he didn't sweat so much when he was working, and he sweated after finishing the work, and a worker saw that Li Zhong's face was not good, and said: "Lao Li, why is your face gray?" Li Zhongqiang smiled and said: "Carrying a big bag all night, whose face can be so good?"
Riding a motorcycle back home, I felt a little dizzy, I couldn't say that I couldn't get up, I hastily drank half a bowl of porridge, lay on the kang to sleep, slept all day, and still felt uncomfortable after getting up, thinking that I had a cold or high blood pressure, I went to the village pharmacy to take a few packs of medicine to eat, and the next morning, the dizziness and weakness were not alleviated in the slightest, and there was a burst of panic and shortness of breath, he struggled to go to work, but was stopped by his wife, at this time he suddenly remembered that he had not urinated for a long time, and quickly asked his wife to go to the pharmacy to ask what was going on, although Dr. Han of the pharmacy was a barefoot doctor in the village, but there are many patients in contact, and the experience is still quite rich, saying that Li Zhong is not a good phenomenon, so Li Zhong's wife quickly took Li Zhong to the city hospital for examination.
When I arrived at the county hospital, I was registered for a doctor's consultation, and the doctor asked about the symptoms, and then a series of tests, blood tests, urine tests, ultrasound, CT, etc., and finally came to the conclusion that uremia was in the advanced stage.
This is tantamount to a bolt from the blue for Li Lanfang's family, the late stage of uremia means that Li Zhong has lost his ability to work since then, and he has to rely on hemodialysis for a long time to maintain his life, or to replace his kidney, no matter which of these two methods is unbearable for ordinary families in this rural area, there is no need to think about kidney replacement, rich people may not be able to afford it, and it is more difficult to find the right ** than to ascend to the sky, and the cost of hemodialysis is not low, four or five hundred yuan at a time, three or four times a week, and five or five times a month. 6,000 yuan, although medical insurance can reimburse part of it, but the remaining part of the cost is still a lot of money for a family that has lost its financial resources.
It is no exaggeration to say that his world collapsed at the moment of diagnosis, not only on the economic level, but also on the spiritual level; in rural parlance, this disease is not a good disease, first, because it cannot be cured, sooner or later it will be a death, and secondly, the name of this disease is not good, the kidney is the source of a man's vitality, and what does it mean for a man if the kidney fails? Everyone knows very well in their hearts that the negative impact on the spirit is probably worse than death.
Li Zhong was discouraged, his spirit had completely collapsed, he repeatedly asked to go home and wait for death, unwilling to waste money in vain, Li Lanfang and her mother cried into tears, Li Lanfang cried and persuaded: "If you die, I will have no father, do you want me to be a child without a father? Just like Yunfei and Xiaoji in the backyard, Dad, I won't let you die, you want to die, and I won't live anymore......"
Li Zhong couldn't help crying bitterly when he heard this, and said: "Who let me get such a disease, this disease is not enough to drain the little money that our family has saved, and I have to occupy a person to serve me, and in the future, you two will have to drink the northwest ......wind with me."
Li Lanfang cried: "Even if I drink the northwest wind, I have to have a father, I am old now, I can work and earn money......
The family hugged their heads and cried, and everyone in the ward couldn't help but be miserable, and the doctors and nurses in the hospital had seen this kind of thing so much that they had long turned a blind eye.
Li Zhong is in a dilemma, and it is not easy to die!
At this moment, the door of the ward was pushed open, and the people in the ward looked up and saw two sweaty teenagers standing at the door of the wardβit was Zhao Yunfei and Han Tuo who came.
Li Zhong's family was crying so darkly that they didn't notice that someone had entered the ward, and suddenly, Li Zhong felt a pair of thick and powerful hands on his shoulders, he raised his teary eyes and saw Zhao Yunfei's firm and clear gaze.
"Uncle, you don't have to worry about money, I'm here!" Zhao Yunfei's voice was calm and powerful, that gaze, that look, and that pair of powerful hands made people feel that he had indeed grown up.
Li Zhong held Zhao Yunfei's hand and sobbed in a low voice, the man did not flick his tears when he had not reached the sad place, if he suddenly gave up his wife who had been with him for many years and his children who were better than his own life, who could accept it? And it is so difficult to live, this illness costs money like running water, and ordinary peasant families will be destitute in less than a year, how can a responsible man bear to watch his wife and children run around and work hard, and beg for money for him, a waste man who has lost any hope?
Li Lanfang saw that Zhao Yunfei rushed over at this time, and finally found a place to vent the huge pressure, pain, toil and anxiety she had endured all day, she stood up and hugged Zhao Yunfei and cried, rubbing her snot and tears on his shoulder.
"Uncle, aunt, don't worry, as for me, Yunfei and I won't look at it. Han Tuo also said later that he had already made up his mind in his heart, although he couldn't help with money, he could work and help Li Lanfang's family farm.
Aunt Li held Han Tuo's hand, and she couldn't cry.
