Li Qiumei answered the phone in front of Lawyer Han, and Sha Laoba told Li Qiumei a piece of news that made her even more devastated.
Just last night, Wang Minghua and his family also switched sides.
The hospital agreed to provide free treatment for Wang Minghua's father's back injury, and Wang Minghua has given up suing Xiao Kun.
As soon as Li Qiumei and the others left, Xiao Kun was released.
Several groups of people reached an agreement behind the back of Li Qiumei's family. Xiao Kun paid 20,000 yuan as compensation to Cui Yingping's family and fled overnight.
Lawyer Han adjusted his glasses out of habit, "Mr. Li, since the Cui family is willing to take the initiative to seek peace, I guess the hospital is putting pressure on Cui Yingping.
This illegal trade is a sensitive topic, and the hospital will not allow it to continue to ferment and affect their reputation."
Li Qiumei nodded, "I understand, then let's withdraw."
She called Song Qinghe and drove home.
Li Qiuxiang had just returned from shopping for groceries with the elderly couple Hu Lanying.
"Qiumei, why are you back? Is there something wrong?"
Li Qiumei told everything.
Upon hearing the news that Wang Minghua and his family had defected, Hu Lanying snorted, "No wonder when we went to look for them just now, the hotel owner said they checked out before daybreak.
It turns out he ran away.
This family is so heartless that they just took advantage of us and ran away.
Qiu Mei, please don't donate a penny to their family anymore.
If you have that spare money, you might as well give it to your dad!
Your dad is so tired from back and leg pain that he's reluctant to go to the hospital."
Li Qiumei smiled and was too lazy to answer.
Li Guofu angrily slammed the coffee table, "Damn it!
We were talking fine before we parted yesterday, but it turns out that after returning from here, he was bribed by the hospital staff."
Li Qiumei told them, “Pack your luggage and I will take you to the station.
If you don't leave, Cui Yingping will think you're causing trouble again and might even sue you."
Hu Lanying was unwilling to give in. "Then what about Wang Minghua's family? Should we just let them go?"
Li Qiumei rolled her eyes. "Otherwise, what else do you want?"
Hu Lanying was unhappy, "Yesterday at the police station, your father paid Cui Yinghong fifty yuan for her clothes and apologized to her.
I can't let out this bad breath, and my heart won't be smooth."
Li Qiuxiang took the coat from the sofa and said, "Mom, let's go. Cui Yinghong's son can't undergo surgery and won't live much longer.
If you think about it this way, what else is there that is not slippery?"
Another person who felt that she had a guilty conscience was Cui Yinghong's mother, Li Xiulan.
"Yingping, I feel really bad that you let Li Qiuxiang's parents go to waste with such a good opportunity."
Before Cui Yingping could speak, her brother Cui Yingqiang said angrily, "Mom, I talked all night long, but you didn't hear a word I said?"
Li Xiulan looked at her son and said, "I...I..."
Cui Yingqiang sighed, "Mom, you know better than anyone how much our family has sacrificed for Yinghong and her son.
You can't just drag my sister into this just because you're partial to Yinghong.
My sister lost her position as vice president for Yinghong, and now she almost lost her job.
Why don't you feel sorry for my sister?"
Cui Yingping listened to her brother scolding her mother with an expressionless face, but she felt a mixture of emotions in her heart.
Since she was a child, her parents have taught her to care for her younger siblings, as if it was her innate responsibility.
She still remembers that when she was a child, whenever her younger siblings cried or made a fuss, her parents would always be the first to hold her accountable.
And when her younger siblings made mistakes, her parents always let her teach them.
She didn't know why, she just knew it was what she had to do.
So, she studied hard and worked hard to climb up, hoping to become an excellent person and be able to protect her younger brothers and sisters from wind and rain.
Over the years, seeing her parents entrusting all the big and small matters of the Cui family to her and relying on her, Cui Yingping felt that her abilities were recognized by her family, and she was happy.
She thought that this would prove her worth and gain the respect and love of her family.
However, reality ruthlessly shattered her fantasy.
She found that no matter how hard she worked or how successful she was, her family always took her for granted.
They still treated her as a tool, a resource to be exploited, and no one really cared about her feelings.
Now, Cui Yingping feels that she is powerless to help Yinghong.
If this continues, she doesn't know if her parents will still value her if she loses her job.
Cui Daoming, the head of the family, also spoke at the right time, "Okay, stop arguing!
Yingqiang is right. We can’t sacrifice our entire family for Kang Kang.
Listen to me, from now on, Kang Kang’s affairs will be left to fate.
All the family money has been spent on Kang Kang’s medical treatment over the years, and a lot of money has been borrowed from relatives and friends.
From this month on, my pension will be mainly used to repay relatives and friends.
Otherwise, I am afraid that after I die, I will still owe people money and be criticized by others."
Li Xiulan was horrified. "Old man, if you don't take the money, Yinghong's salary will never be enough to pay for Kang Kang's hospitalization."
Cui Daoming glared at her and said, "If you don't have money for hospitalization, then go home.
The old lady from the Li family was right when she said, "The sooner you die, the sooner you will be reborn."
Everyone looked at Cui Daoming in disbelief. After all, Cui Daoming had held Kang Kang in the palm of his hand all these years.
Seeing Cui Daoming's attitude, Cui Yingqiang said, "Dad, now that this has happened, the hospital wants to calm down public opinion as soon as possible.
The whole ward knows about Kang Kang's situation, and the hospital suggested we transfer to another hospital temporarily. Wait... "
Li Xiulan interrupted her son, "No! Transferring him to another hospital at this time would mean the end of Kang Kang's life."
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Cui Daoming coughed and said, "Li Xiulan, think about it yourself. Ever since Kang Kang got sick, you came here because we old couple have spent all our money on Kang Kang.
As a result, Yingqiang's wife quarreled with him every few days, and he hasn't been home for the New Year for several years.
Although we let Kang Kang take our family surname Cui, he is not our biological grandson after all.
Don’t forget, Kang Kang is just a grandson.”
Li Xiulan cried sadly, "You guys have seen that Yinghong has been emotionally unstable these past two days.
If she knew that you were not helping to save Kang Kang, I'm afraid she would be upset and something might happen to her.
If you ask me, I have helped Yinghong for so many years, so another year or two won’t make a difference.
What if a suitable kidney source is found within a short period of time?"
Seeing that his children were silent, Cui Daoming had no choice but to speak, "Transfer Kang Kang back to Beishan County Hospital. Yingping can't lose her job.
Forget it, let your mother and I go together to handle the discharge procedures for them."
