"This little pig is 80 yuan. It's very cute. I knitted it for two days. You can hang it on your car keys. If you like it, I can sell it to you for 50 yuan."
These were all woven by Chen Qingning day and night.
In the cold wind, the little girl in simple clothes stayed here. Some people bought, some didn't, some liked it, some thought it was rubbish, and some threatened to evict her by the urban management. So she moved to another place, trying to choose a place with many people, and did not choose a place that could shelter from the wind. She was not afraid of the cold wind because she really needed money now. Maybe this little money was a drop in the bucket for her at the moment, but this was all she had.
Occasionally, she would encounter a few thugs who came to harass her, so she would move to a place where there were security guards. The security guards saw that this girl was living in the open air and selling these small accessories here, so they naturally felt sorry for her who was the same age as their own daughter, so they protected this poor little girl. After all, who would do this unless they had no choice?
Shen Qingning squatted on the ground, looking at the young ladies of the same age walking by, not envious, because she had no time to envy them.
Beep beep.
A phone call came in. Shen Qingning picked up the phone, said a few words, hung up the phone tremblingly, and said to the security guard with a choked voice, "Uncle, I'll leave these things with you for a while."
"It's okay, go ahead."
"Thanks."
Shen Qingning bowed, turned around and ran into the cold wind. The security brother sighed, packed up these things and put them in the security booth.
Not everyone in this world can "use the best and play with the most expensive things" like the super rich. There are still many people struggling for life. Struggling may not necessarily lead to a good life, but not struggling will definitely lead to death.
A western hospital.
Outside the ICU ward.
A few melancholy middle-aged people were arguing about something. At this time, the elevator door opened and Shen Qingning ran out, panting and asking, "What's wrong with grandma?"
The melancholy uncle said: "He was just rescued and returned to the ICU. The doctor said that his condition is still very dangerous. If surgery is required, we should be prepared."
Shen Qingning: “How much does the surgery cost?”
Uncle: "He said to prepare 400,000 first."
400,000 is a huge sum of money for ordinary people. In addition, the Shen family is originally from the countryside, and several uncles are farmers. They do the lowest-level jobs and have to support their family in Hukou, so they really don't have much money.
Shen Qingning suddenly returned home from Ningda because she received a call saying that her grandmother was hospitalized for a sudden cerebral hemorrhage and later had heart problems and needed treatment. She was initially treated in the hospital in her hometown, which cost 70,000 to 80,000 yuan. Later, there was no effect, so she was sent to a certain hospital.
I went straight to the ICU after arriving at a certain place. Every day when I received the bill, I was scared when I saw the numbers on it.
I have been seeing a Western doctor for half a month and spent more than 100,000 yuan. My condition was getting better, but suddenly complications recurred. My family needs to decide whether to have surgery or conservative treatment?
The old man is over 80 years old and is at the end of his life. It will cost hundreds of thousands of dollars for medical treatment. The doctor also said that the risk is very high. Even if the operation is successful, according to the old man's physical condition, he is estimated to not live long.
This is very confusing.
If you don't seek medical treatment and go home, you can live for a while if you let nature take its course.
I have no money left for medical treatment, and even if I get cured, I won’t live long at home.
After all, he is in his 80s.
Shen Qingning was picked up by her grandmother and raised alone, but no one in the family agreed. The old lady was kind-hearted and insisted on doing so, and there was nothing she could do.
Because the family was divided, the old man lived in the old house, and his three sons worked hard outside to support their small family, so the old man no longer troubled them.
In short, the whole family was very poor.
The old man raised Shen Qingning by picking up scraps, and he also suffered from a lot of illnesses, which is equivalent to his current poor physical condition. To be honest, it was all because of raising Shen Qingning. Therefore, Shen Qingning is really not welcome in the Shen family.
However, Chen Qingning is very sensible, studies very hard, and works hard to earn money. In order to make the old man live a better life, this hospitalization has used up all her savings, so she went to Taikoo Li to set up a stall, which is just a drop in the bucket.
at this time.
Silence fell at the entrance of the ICU. The Shen family was worried. They really had no money. The only way to get medical treatment was for the uncle to sell the house. But even if the aunt agreed to sell the house, there might not be anyone to buy it right away. Now they were waiting for the money. They had already borrowed the money a long time ago. The current amount was more than 400,000 yuan. Who could they borrow from? The farmer's friends were all farmers. They could borrow 10,000 or 20,000 yuan, but no more.
The problem is that the doctor said that the treatment has risks and that it costs 400,000 yuan to just give it a try.
This is even more difficult. I have no money and I have to take a gamble. This is too difficult.
"...How about this, she stays in the ICU for two more days for observation. If things don't work out, we can take her back home. She's over 80 and there's no need for her to suffer like this. She should go back for conservative treatment."
The second uncle's words were very tactful, and the other two uncles kept silent and did not contribute. After all, they really had no money, and this was not the time to show off their wealth.
"No! Grandma will just wait to die if she goes back."
At this time, Shen Qingning directly rejected everyone's idea.
After these words were spoken, the three uncles remained silent. After all, they still wanted to treat the patient, even though the risk was great. However, their strength did not allow it, so they could only remain silent.
However, the three aunts were very upset when they heard this. They had always disliked Shen Qingning, the burden. If it were not for her, the old man would not have come here. All the responsibility was blamed on Shen Qingning.
The second aunt shook off the eldest aunt's hand, walked up angrily, pointed at Shen Qingning's nose, and scolded her with all kinds of unpleasant words. The doctors and nurses passing by didn't even look at her. After all, in the hospital, many stories of ordinary people happen every day, and they get used to it over time.
