Chapter 194 Who Pays
The doctor was stunned for a moment. "When the patient was brought here, someone advanced 500,000 yuan. There is no problem with medical expenses now."
When my uncle saw Xiao Shiqiu walking behind me, he immediately stood up, walked over, shook his hand, and said, "Mr. Xiao, thanks to you. The doctor said that if you had arrived half an hour later, the patient would not have been saved."
Xiao Shiqiu nodded calmly, "Okay, let the doctor do his best to treat him. Don't worry about other things for now."
My uncle understood what he meant and breathed a sigh of relief.
I stared into my uncle's eyes and said, "Uncle, do you think Xiao Shiqiu should pay for this?"
My uncle stammered, "Mengmeng, your sister needs dialysis and blood transfusions now. The doctor said her blood needs to be replaced almost entirely, and if one replacement isn't enough, she might need another. The cost is really beyond my means."
My brother-in-law raised his head with red eyes, "My mother gave me 200,000 yuan. She said Jundi is pitiful, and this is her token of appreciation. If it's not enough..."
I understand what he means. In fact, from his family's perspective, his daughter-in-law hasn't even married yet. When it's not known whether she can be saved, it's very generous of him to be willing to pay out 200,000 yuan. After all, there is a high possibility that it will all be wasted.
So, I didn't expect my brother-in-law's family to spend all their money to save my cousin.
But I don't want Xiao Shiqiu to pay for it. First of all, this matter has nothing to do with him and he has no obligation to do so.
Secondly, there are clearly people responsible for this matter, so why let them go? From grandma to uncle, cousin, and even Xia Junliang, each of them should pay the price for this matter.
Now, the uncle is relieved because Xiao Shiqiu is rich and willing to pay the medical expenses. It is obvious that he hopes not to pursue their responsibility. Being rich is not a reason for him to be a sucker.
I made up my mind and said to my uncle seriously, "This money should be paid by my eldest uncle's family, my grandmother, and my cousin.
My brother-in-law is willing to pay part of the money because it is his love for my sister, but Xiao Shiqiu cannot be asked to pay it under any circumstances.
He's willing to use his resources and mobilize a medical helicopter for transport, which is already a huge favor, and we can't push it any further."
Xiao Shiqiu frowned when he heard what I said, "Mengmeng, it's not a big deal, why bother? As long as we can save the person, that's all."
I turned around and looked at him, "You shouldn't have to pay for this. You shouldn't have to pay for other people's mistakes."
My uncle looked at me awkwardly. Of course, he hoped that Xiao Shiqiu could pay for the medical expenses. After all, he still sided with his biological mother.
"Your uncle and grandmother can't afford so much money..." said the uncle hesitantly.
I interrupted him, "They hurt my cousin like this. Shouldn't they spend all their savings and sell their house and car for her?"
The uncle was even more troubled. "But where will they live after we sell the house? We can't leave the whole family without a place to live just for Jundi, right?"
I snorted coldly, "Where are you going to live? After doing something like this, jail is pretty suitable. Where else do you want to live?"
The uncle's expression froze, apparently forgetting that this matter wouldn't be resolved so easily. "Then, then they'll need a place to stay when they get out."
I said angrily, "Didn't my dad rebuild the old house in the countryside? Can't we live there?"
He finally lowered his head. "Okay, I get it. I'll tell your grandma about this. But if we sell the house and car, and Jundi is rescued, can you persuade her to sign a letter of apology? After all, he's her biological father."
