Xie Linan remained silent.
At this time, the doctor said, "Even conservative treatment is divided into several types. One is to prescribe some anti-cancer drugs at random, and the painkillers are the main ones. The patient will suffer in the future. The other is more expensive. We have imported drugs, which are also anti-cancer drugs, but they are much more effective."
"How much does it cost?"
"That's about the price for one."
The doctor gestured and gave a number, "One bottle of medicine will last about a week."
"What?" Xie Zhiguo's eyes almost popped out.
"It's so expensive and it only lasts for a week?"
"Yes, it depends on whether you want to use it or not."
"This……"
He hesitated and looked at Xie Linan again.
I definitely can't afford such a large sum of money, but I can't just say it's incurable.
This matter still requires Xie Linan's opinion.
Xie Linan said, "Cure it, of course. My grandfather has suffered all his life, and since there is a good medicine for him, we can't refuse it."
Xie Zhiguo frowned and said, "Of course we can't just ignore it, but the cost of treating cancer is quite expensive. Lin An, you said before that we don't have to be responsible. Is that still true?"
Xie Linan thought for a moment and said, "It's so expensive. I don't think it's appropriate for me to pay for it alone."
Xie Zhiguo: "..."
"How about this, whoever's home the grandpa is in will be in charge?"
"Hey, you clearly said before..."
"Uncle, there must be more than one medicine to treat it. You only need to pay for this medicine, and I will pay for the rest."
"It's easy for you to say that. This medicine is so expensive that I can't afford it even if I sell my clothes."
"How about I pay for the medicine and you pay for the other expenses?"
Xie Zhiguo thought for a moment and asked the doctor, "What other expenses are there?"
"What exactly is going on? We need to bring the patient here for hospitalization and examination."
"Do you still need to check?"
"Yes, we need to find out whether the patient's body can withstand it."
Xie Zhiguo thinks that hospitals are liars and waste money.
I was about to refuse when the doctor said, "But our hospital is running out of beds. I'm afraid you'll have to wait in line for a few days."
Xie Zhiguo suddenly thought about the fact that his own month was almost over, so he asked, "How many days do you have to wait?"
"About seven to ten days."
Xie Zhiguo breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that in seven to ten days, his grandfather would go to the next house.
That's none of your business. There's no need to quarrel with Xie Linan over it.
It is better for the eldest brother to take it down. The third brother and the others will make trouble in a few days.
When it is my turn next time, the third child and the eldest nephew will probably have already come to an end after the argument.
"Okay then, Lin An, you can pay for the medicine yourself, and whoever gets it will pay for the rest of the money."
"Okay, let's leave it at that for now. I'll listen to Uncle 괗놅."
The couple followed Xie Zhiguo directly back to 깊놛's home to visit their grandfather.
Today, the old man was sitting in a rocking chair watching TV with a plate of melon seeds next to him, and he looked very content.
Xie Linan knew in his heart that this was all done for everyone to see, but he did not expose it and even said a few words to thank his aunt for her hard work.
Zhang Hui greeted them politely, asked them to sit down first, and went to cook.
It is not convenient to let the old man know about this for the time being. Xie Linan did not directly say that he had lung cancer. This disease can only be treated as an ordinary lung disease.
I first sat aside and chatted with my grandfather, talking about TV.
The old man knew that we were going to get the report today, so he ignored us and asked directly, "How is my illness?"
Xie Linan said, "The doctor said your lungs are not in good condition. You have been coughing a lot recently and it hurts, right?"
Lin Xinghua was stunned for a moment, then waved his hands and said, "It's nothing, it just hurts a little when I cough a lot."
"Then why didn't you tell us?"
"It's just a little cough, it's no big deal. Who doesn't cough when they're older? I can just buy some medicine and take it myself, no need to tell you guys."
Xie Linan: "The doctor said you can't smoke anymore."
Lin Xinghua looked at Xie Linan in surprise.
Xie Linan said, "Smoking is harmful to health. Let me see whose cigarette box doesn't have these words written on it?"
"I smoke leaf tobacco, which is different from you guys."
"Leaf tobacco is more harmful. In short, you are not allowed to smoke it anymore. And your lungs are not in good condition now, so you need to take medicine to treat them."
Lin Xinghua looked at Xie Zhiguo.
Xie Zhiguo nodded repeatedly and said, "Lin An is right. Your illness... is still a bit troublesome. You need to take medicine to slowly treat it. Taking medicine is one thing, but you also have to pay attention to yourself and quit smoking."
"I've smoked all my life. If you ask me to quit smoking now, won't that kill me?"
Xie Linan: “…”
"If I don't quit smoking, I'll die."
Xie Linan went straight into the house and took away all the cigarette sticks and leaves.
Lin Xinghua saw this and slapped his thigh anxiously, "You bastard, are you serious? Give it back to me now."
Xie Linan broke the cigarette stick directly.
Lin Xinghua: “…”
"You...you...you bastard."
Xie Linan: "Yes, I am the grandson of a turtle. Then what are you? You are an old turtle."
Lin Xinghua: “…”
Ye Xiaozhen saw something was wrong and stepped forward to block the way between them. "Okay, what do you mean?"
"This isn't about me first."
"Oh, you... go out first, I'll tell you."
Xie Linan broke the cigarette stick in front of his grandfather, which made him very angry.
Unfortunately, Xie Linan was not good at speaking, and if the two of them continued talking, they would probably start quarreling.
Ye Xiaozhen had no choice but to step out and act as a substitute.
At my age, I have never been educated about the dangers of smoking, so it is normal that I cannot understand and accept it for a while.
There were people about the same age as me, each holding a cigarette.
How can we just give discounts without doing ideological work?
Ye Xiaozhen earnestly explained to her the dangers of smoking, telling her what the lungs of a normal person look like and what the lungs of a long-term smoker look like.
And it's not you who want to stop you from smoking, it's the doctors' idea, not yours.
If you continue to inhale it, it will cause serious harm to your body.
Then, in a negotiating tone, he said, "Why not give it a try first to see if not smoking will make you feel better and reduce your coughing."
I did listen to the next few sentences and said I wanted to give it a try.
Hearing that she finally gave in, Ye Xiaozhen breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's right. You don't smoke. It's good for the baby in Linlin's belly. Pregnant women and fetuses are very sensitive to smoke. If a pregnant woman accidentally smells smoke, she will easily feel uncomfortable. The baby she gives birth to in the future will not be so smart."
Hearing this, Xie Zhiguo, who was smoking, felt embarrassed.
Huang Linlin, who was sitting on the other side, looked at Ye Xiaozhen in surprise.
Ye Xiaozhen glanced at Xie Zhiguo and said, "Uncle, don't disbelieve me. If you don't believe me, go ask the doctor next time you go to the hospital. A smoker, unless he dies early from other diseases or accidents, will sooner or later... have lung problems."
