Chapter 84 Medical Treatment
The village man led everyone through the short, some newer, some older bungalows. After several turns, the program team followed him to a dilapidated, small house with a shabby roof and sunlight shining directly into the house.
The mottled wooden door had a lot of wood chips falling off, and it was not locked. With a slight push, it creaked open to both sides.
Everyone was able to see the scene inside. The house was bare and extremely poor. The floor was even just compacted mud, not cement or anything else. The furniture looked like it was home-made, very rough and worn out, perhaps old items from when he got married.
The village man lowered his head in embarrassment. His skin was tanned red by the sun, and perhaps he was blushing at this moment, but it was difficult to tell.
"Sit down, sit down. You haven't had lunch yet, right? I'll go make noodles for you." He walked awkwardly to the kitchen, took two steps, then turned back, put two large bottles of cold drinks on the table, and found a few of the cheapest, thin disposable cups from the only cabinet. "Drink, drink."
Nowadays, the Internet environment advocates healthy eating, and people believe that cold drinks are filled with various additives and are the most unhealthy. However, Cun Han does not know this. In his worldview, drinks are good things that are only taken out to entertain guests during the Chinese New Year, and he wants to use them to entertain these kind people who are likely to help his daughter.
No one moved, everyone was stunned for a moment.
The village man thought they thought these loose plastic cups were not clean, "I, I'll wash them again, and they will be clean after washing."
Qi Gu stopped him and said, "No need, this is fine."
He took the initiative to step forward, took the cup from the village man, unscrewed the drink and poured it for everyone, then handed another cup to the village man, and softened his tone: "No hurry, tell me about your daughter's situation first."
This family is really poor.
[I thought he bought the drink to quench his thirst...]
[Alas, I am really afraid of being disliked... I used to be like this when my grandmother was still alive. At that time, I brought my two-year-old baby home and washed the dishes twice with hot water before dinner. She took note of it and washed them several times in advance before giving them to me. But I don’t dislike her, it’s just that the baby is weak, and things used by adults must be disinfected before they can be used by him.]
[You really think drinks are good things, you don’t even want to drink them yourself, you only let your guests drink them]
The village man was moved by the beautiful woman who didn't look down on him at all. His eyes were moist. He wiped away his tears and said, "My daughter is ten years old this year. She goes to the village primary school. She has good grades. She can get notebooks and pens as well as certificates from the school teachers every year."
He pointed to the most intact wall in the house with the most complete tiles on the roof, and said, "All the awards posted on it are her awards."
"Teacher Fang said that my daughter was smart and that he could sponsor her to go to school in town. We were all very happy at that time, but who knew that not long after that, Teacher Fang would have such an incident... There are so many cases of good people not being rewarded in our village. Later, my wife and I thought about planting more crops this year and selling them to raise money for tuition and living expenses. But who knew that I would be diagnosed with a disease."
When the village man and his wife heard the teacher call and said their daughter had suddenly fainted, they were numb and dared not think about anything. When they arrived at the town hospital, their daughter had woken up and looked no different from usual. However, the doctor's expression was very serious and he said, "Your daughter's condition is very serious. Our small hospital can't treat this disease. Hurry up and raise some money and take her to a big hospital in the city."
Then listen to the doctor.
The village man took the money he had saved from selling crops last year, which he was going to put aside for his daughter's education, and he, his wife and their daughter took a long-distance bus to the city hospital.
During those hours, the couple huddled together holding their daughter, thinking through all the possible outcomes in their minds. In the end, all that was left was a self-consoling remark: "The town hospital can only treat colds and coughs, and our daughter's condition may not be that serious... don't be afraid."
The city hospital was bright and clean, and the people coming and going were smartly dressed. They felt uneasy just by looking at them from outside.
The female doctor looked at the medical report and said, "We are also having trouble with this disease. You should go to a higher-level hospital. It is difficult to make an appointment at the provincial hospital. Remember to make an appointment online in advance."
As she spoke, she met two pairs of clear yet ignorant eyes.
"Well...if you are sure you want to go, I'll make an appointment for you." The female doctor said finally.
After thanking the kind female doctor, they got on the shaky bus and arrived at a larger hospital that was even more glamorous and beautiful, with a floor that was even brighter than the ones in their home.
"This is acute leukemia. You go and pay the fee first, and then we will arrange a ward for treatment first..."
The couple had heard of leukemia. There was a child in the neighboring village who was infected with the disease and whose disease brought down the relatively well-off family.
Later, the child was not kept, and the couple was left with a lot of debts, and they had to work hard outside to pay off the debts.
The incandescent light in the hospital's treatment room was so bright and dazzling that it hurt the couple's eyes and blurred their vision.
The doctor, who had finished reading the report, raised his eyes and saw the couple's attire, and said, "If you give up treatment, then -"
Before he finished speaking, the village man blurted out: "We won't give up, we won't give up. Please pay more attention to us. We will raise the money and we will get treatment..."
The wife also said, "Yes, yes."
…
Then, it’s about borrowing money. As soon as I open my eyes, I’m thinking about how to borrow money, how to make money, and how to repay the money.
Some people agreed readily and lent money, but there were also close relatives who refused to give a penny... When the couple who lost their child in the next village heard about this, they also asked someone to send 1,000 yuan.
Their child is gone, but they still want to save other people's children.
The village man finished his brief account of the matter. Before Fang Heng could speak, Lin Hanzhi spoke first, "Which hospital is the child in now? Do you remember the bed number and ward number? I'll have someone transfer some money first."
【Fang Heng:? Isn't this my line? 】
[So the Queen's brother is also a rich man?] 】
[Okay, okay, I just laughed at myself]
[You rich people really have a soft spot for this variety show]
[Alas, no matter who they are, just help them. They are all simple and pitiful people.]
Upon hearing this, the village man nodded repeatedly, not caring about anything else. He was so excited that he couldn't even speak. He just took out the medical records of going to the hospital from the wooden table.
He didn't know many words, but he read every item in his daughter's medical report carefully and remembered them very clearly.
