Chapter 137 Plea



"Cousin, although grandma and uncle did something wrong to you, grandma broke her leg this time. Why don't you go to the hospital to help take a look at the situation?" Guo Xiaoyi and Su Yu returned to the backyard. After thinking about it, she couldn't help but speak.

Li Hongmei came out of the kitchen again and was stunned when she heard Guo Xiaoyi's words. "Xiaoyi, what's going on? What happened to your grandma?"

Guo Guotao also put down the design drawings at this time. His mother-in-law was in trouble, so he naturally couldn't remain indifferent. Su Yu said, "My father came to see me just now and said that grandma broke her leg and is now hospitalized in Chaoyang Hospital. He came to ask me to go with him to the hospital to check on grandma's health."

When Li Hongmei heard that something happened to Old Lady Li, she became a little nervous. "She's already a few years old, and she still broke her leg. No, I have to go to the hospital to see how she is doing."

Li Jianguo walked into the backyard and saw Li Hongmei and the others. He didn't care about his face and said to Li Hongmei, "Hongmei, Mom broke her leg and is in the hospital. I came here to tell you something. Can you please persuade Xiaoyu to go to the hospital to check on Mom's health?"

Li Hongmei opened her mouth and looked at Su Yu: "Xiao Yu, your father said your grandmother broke her leg. You are a good doctor, why don't you come with us to the hospital to see her? I feel at ease with you around."

"You can go and see grandma, but I don't treat you for free. I charge fifty yuan per session."

Su Yu said, "Fifty dollars for a medical consultation?" Li Jianguo was also a little surprised. Wasn't this clearly a thorn in his side?

But after all, he was in the wrong, and Li Jianguo knew that Su Yu was deliberately taking revenge on him.

He nodded and said, "Okay, fifty dollars will do, as long as you are willing to treat your grandma."

After saying that, Li Jianguo handed Su Yu 50 yuan while Li Hongmei and Guo Guotao looked at each other. Su Yu originally had 319 yuan on him, plus the 50 yuan now.

The total is 369 yuan.

After chatting with Li Hongmei, Guo Guotao and others for a while, Li Jianguo didn't waste any words and immediately drove the jeep, taking Su Yu, Guo Guotao and Guo Xiaoyi to the hospital.

Aunt Ye walked out of her house and came to the front gate, holding melon seeds in one hand. When she saw Li Jianguo driving a jeep and taking Su Yu and others away from the courtyard, she was immediately shocked.

"This jeep can only be driven by a leader, right? What is the relationship between Engineer Guo and the others and this high-ranking leader?"

Aunt Zhang smiled and said, "What's the connection? Aunt Ye, you and Li Hongmei live in the same courtyard, and you didn't know that Political Commissar Li of the Public Security Bureau is Director Li's brother? Of course, he's also Dr. Su's adoptive father."

"What? That man is Su Yu's adoptive father?"

When Aunt Ye heard this, she was also a little surprised.

This made her feel even more upset. "We're both girls, but why is Dr. Su so capable and has such a good family background, while my Xiangyang doesn't have the same good fortune? He married a wasteful girl like Darong. It really makes me angry."

When Aunt Wang heard her mumbling, she immediately started to sneer, "Aunt Ye, don't you see what your son Xiangyang is like? You still want him to marry a doctor. You have to wait until Dr. Su takes a liking to your son."

Aunt Ye was unhappy and put her hands on her waist. "Hey, what do you mean by saying that? I think you are just jealous of my family. You say my Xiangyang is incompetent, do you have any ability? You don't even have a son, and you still have the nerve to say that about our Xiangyang."

These words were really offensive. When Aunt Wang and Aunt Zhang heard what Aunt Ye said, they were so angry that their faces immediately turned gloomy.

The jeep was speeding on the road, the wind was whistling outside the window, but the atmosphere inside the car was a little depressing.

Su Yu looked out the window, his thoughts drifting away, recalling his childhood in the Li family compound. Those scenes of being neglected and ignored kept playing in his mind like a movie.

Guo Xiaoyi sat next to Su Yu, carefully tugged at the corner of her clothes, and said softly, "Cousin, don't be angry. Grandma is old and must be scared this time."

Su Yu raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint bitter smile, "I'm not angry, I just feel a little emotional."

Li Jianguo looked at Su Yu in the rearview mirror, wanted to say something several times but finally chose to remain silent.

Guo Guotao was talking to Li Jianguo about the general situation of the hospital, trying to ease the slightly awkward atmosphere.

"Brother Jianguo, I heard the orthopedics department at Chaoyang Hospital is pretty good, but if Xiaoyu goes there, it will definitely help Mom recover faster."

Li Jianguo nodded repeatedly, "Yes, Xiao Yu's medical skills are good, and I feel a little more at ease."

Soon, the jeep arrived at Chaoyang Hospital. The group hurriedly got off the car and walked towards the inpatient department.

Along the way, Li Jianguo kept introducing Mrs. Li's current condition to Su Yu. Su Yu listened carefully and asked for some details from time to time.

Arriving at the door of the ward, Li Jianguo took a deep breath and walked in first.

In the ward, Old Mrs. Li was lying on the bed with a plaster on her leg and her face was pale. When she saw Li Jianguo and others coming in, a complex emotion flashed in her eyes.

Li Hongmei quickly walked to the bedside, held Mrs. Li's hand, her eyes red, "Mom, what happened to you? Why are you so careless?"

Old Mrs. Li looked at Su Yu, her face instantly darkened, the guilt in her eyes disappeared in an instant, replaced by full of resentment.

She shook off Li Hongmei's hand and shouted at the top of her voice: "Don't be so hypocritical here. If I hadn't been angry with you, I would have fallen like this if I hadn't been so upset recently."

Li Hongmei's eyes reddened, and she said aggrievedly, "Mom, you obviously misunderstood me. How could a daughter curse her own mother?"

Old Lady Li snorted coldly and turned her gaze to Su Yu. "And you, don't think you can control me just by treating me. I worried about you a lot back then, and yet you want to sever ties with our Li family. You're such an ungrateful person! And you're even taking money from Jianguo!"

Su Yu clenched his fists, trying to suppress his emotions, but his voice remained firm: "Old lady, I'm just following the rules. I have a clear conscience for accepting this money. If you think I'm doing something wrong, you can find another doctor."

Li Jianguo quickly stepped forward to smooth things over: "Mom, Xiaoyu is doing this for your own good, please stop talking."

Old Lady Li didn't appreciate it. She pointed at Li Jianguo's nose and cursed, "You coward! You can't even control your own daughter, and you're helping outsiders!"

The atmosphere in the ward suddenly became tense. Guo Guotao and Guo Xiaoyi stood aside, at a loss, not knowing what to do.

Li Hongmei took a deep breath, holding back tears, and said, "Mom, no matter what you think, we are all worried about your health. We hope you can get better soon."

Old Mrs. Li turned her head away and ignored everyone, still muttering complaints.

Su Yu took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. She walked to the bedside of Old Lady Li and said calmly, "Old Lady, since I'm here today, I hope you can cooperate with me in treating your illness. No matter what you think of me, I hope you can recover as soon as possible."
