She really didn't expect that her country mother-in-law, whom she looked down upon, would be so troublesome, and she really didn't want to get involved.
But poor health is a serious matter.
"How could this happen?" Mo Youyou refused to accept reality.
“I remember Dekai said that your health had improved after three years of recuperation in the countryside, so why has it started to deteriorate again recently?”
Mo Youyou was very annoyed.
She remembered her mother saying that taking care of a sick person was very annoying, and she didn't want to take care of this country mother-in-law. She even found it troublesome to accompany her to the hospital.
After a long day at work in the army, all I want to do when I get home is rest. How can I have the leisure or inclination to take someone to see a doctor?
Besides, this is Liu Dekai's mother, not her own mother, so she doesn't need to worry about it.
“I’m not quite sure either, Youyou…” Zhang Cuihua thought that her son was so tired from work, so she shouldn’t trouble him. It would be better to let Mo Youyou accompany her to the doctor.
Besides, the hospital will have to pay for it, and Mo Youyou wouldn't want her to pay it herself, so she'll definitely pay for it on her behalf.
Zhang Cuihua felt less distressed about letting Mo Youyou pay.
“Youyou, why don’t you come with Mom to the hospital first? If there’s anything wrong, the sooner it’s discovered and treated, the more money we can save!” Zhang Cuihua said, and immediately stood up to go to the hospital.
"Hey, wait a minute, I didn't say I wanted to—"
Just as Mo Youyou was about to refuse, there was another noise at the door.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law looked over and saw that Liu Dekai had come home from get off work.
"mom?"
Liu Dekai was somewhat surprised to see his biological mother when he opened the door.
He looked at Mo Youyou again, recalling that when he opened the door, there was no sound of arguing inside. The two of them probably didn't start arguing, right?
Liu Dekai was aware that Mo Youyou looked down on her mother.
"Mom, why did you suddenly come over today? Is something wrong?" Liu Dekai asked, noticing that his mother's complexion wasn't good.
"Dekai!" Seeing her son was like seeing her pillar of support; Zhang Cuihua's anxious heart finally calmed down a little.
So, another explanation followed.
"Mom hasn't been feeling well lately. She gets out of breath easily even with the slightest movement, and she often feels..."
After hearing Zhang Cuihua's words, Liu Dekai frowned.
Before marrying Mo Youyou, when the mother and son lived together, Zhang Cuihua often said she felt unwell and her complexion was particularly bad, which made Liu Dekai very worried.
It seems the situation has worsened now?
“Son, shouldn’t we go to the hospital to get him checked out?” Zhang Cuihua asked.
“Yes, of course I’ll go see it!” Liu Dekai said.
He did not hesitate on this point, after all, only doctors can relieve pain, and he himself does not know how to treat illnesses.
Mo Youyou didn't say anything. She didn't want to get involved in the mother and son's affairs. If they wanted to see a doctor, they could; it was none of her business.
"Youyou, let's take Mom to the doctor right now—"
Liu Dekai was interrupted by Mo Youyou before he could finish speaking.
She didn't give him a chance to finish speaking.
"Liu Dekai, you should take your mother to the military hospital to get checked out. I'll just grab something to eat at the canteen for dinner. Don't worry about me," Mo Youyou said quickly.
The implication was clear: you and your son should get out of here, and she had no intention of interfering with Zhang Cuihua's medical treatment.
Liu Dekai: "..."
He was naturally uncomfortable, after all, Mo Youyou made no attempt to hide her disdain for his mother.
But now, it's clear that getting medical treatment is more important.
Liu Dekai didn't want to argue with Mo Youyou at this time.
After all, if something really bad happens, we might have to ask Mo Cheng for help to get a specialist to treat the patient!
"Okay, then you go eat first," Liu Dekai said to Mo Youyou, wisely choosing not to argue for the time being.
He stepped forward to help Zhang Cuihua up, saying, "Mom, let's go to the hospital now."
"Hey!" Zhang Cuihua was helped to her feet by her son.
She glanced at Mo Youyou again, but ultimately didn't dare to criticize her directly in front of her.
After the door was closed again, Mo Youyou scoffed.
"This is such a hassle!" she complained.
The mother and son went to the military hospital.
On the way, Zhang Cuihua couldn't help but complain to her son.
“Son, Youyou is your wife. A wife should listen to her husband. Look at her attitude. How can she act like a wife or daughter-in-law towards you and me? She really doesn’t respect us!” Zhang Cuihua complained.
How could Liu Dekai not see it?
But what could he do?
His future depended on someone else's father, so how could he have the confidence to really turn against Mo Youyou?
Before Su Yueya's affair was exposed, Mo Youyou was madly in love with him. He could coax her into being obedient with just a few words. But since the affair was exposed, Mo Youyou has not been as "obedient" as before.
Liu Dekai also felt mentally exhausted and didn't want to live that kind of life anymore.
But he was the one who went to great lengths to get married and settle down before the affair was exposed. He hadn't yet achieved his goal, so he had to endure it.
"Mom, ever since Su Yueya's affair was exposed, she has been acting like a madwoman. I don't want to argue with her every day, after all, life still goes on."
"As long as her father is still the brigade commander and useful to me, we'll put up with it for now."
“You don’t live with us, so you don’t have much contact with her, and naturally you won’t get upset by her.”
Zhang Cuihua: "..."
She shook her head repeatedly, knowing in her heart that her son was right, but it just didn't feel right to accept it.
Soon, they arrived at the military hospital.
Liu Dekai quickly made an appointment for Zhang Cuihua, and then waited in line to see a doctor.
When their number was called, the mother and son went into the doctor's office.
"Where does the patient feel unwell?" the doctor asked.
"Doctor, my mother has been experiencing shortness of breath lately. This happens whenever she does even a little bit of work, and it's becoming more and more frequent, now occurring once or twice a week," Liu Dekai described Zhang Cuihua's condition in detail.
"Yes, it feels like a huge rock is pressing on my chest, making it very difficult to breathe. And I always feel pain and discomfort in my body. It's even worse when the weather is bad!" Zhang Cuihua added.
After listening to the account, the doctor made a general judgment.
The patient may have a lung problem.
However, to determine the specific problem, in addition to relying on experience to diagnose, the most important thing is to look at the test results, since machines are the most reliable.
"You don't need to be too nervous. After all, the patient is quite old. As people get older, their organs also age, so they naturally can't compare to when they were younger. I'll order a few tests for her first, and you can take the patient to get them done..."
The doctor writes a prescription.
“Okay,” Liu Dekai said.
Holding the examination report, Liu Dekai prepared to take his mother to queue for the examination. As soon as they left the doctor's office, they saw a familiar figure.
"Su Yueya?" Liu Dekai was extremely shocked.
Could he be seeing things? How could Su Yueya be in a military hospital? And wearing a white coat?
