Ye Weiwei sneered: "Did I force you? If you think it's too expensive, you can choose not to get treatment!"
Upon hearing this, Old Master Lin immediately objected, shouting, "No way! This illness must be cured! I'm willing to spend any amount of money as long as it can be cured."
Upon hearing the old man's words, Brother Lin, Lin Xiafei, and the others immediately looked displeased.
This old man is senile, beyond saving!
Lin Xiafei's eyes darted around, and she looked at Xu Fei, saying, "Shouldn't one have a medical license to treat patients? How dare she, an unlicensed practitioner, charge money? You police officers have to handle this, right?"
Before Xu Fei could speak, Dean Xia immediately said, "Xiao Lin, you don't know this, Comrade Ye is now a specially appointed physician at our county hospital. He's officially employed here, and he earns his living through his own abilities, not through any shady connections."
Lin Xiafei never expected that Ye Weiwei, this little vixen, not only bewitched her old man, but also made Dean Xia and the police officers from the county public security bureau lose their minds. They all stood up for her and spoke up for her. It was infuriating!
Lin Xiafei was the youngest in her family, the late-life daughter of Old Master Lin. Spoiled since childhood, she had a spoiled and arrogant temper. In a fit of anger, she started to speak recklessly, "Dean Xia, since when did doctors at your hospital start charging such high consultation fees? I now seriously suspect that you are in cahoots with them, conspiring to swindle patients out of exorbitant consultation fees..."
"Shut up!" Upon hearing his daughter's words, Old Master Lin sensed something was wrong and quickly scolded her. However, Lin Xiafei, in a fit of temper, refused to listen to him and became increasingly blinded by anger. "Why should I shut up? I didn't say anything wrong! Dad, wake up!"
"You..." Old Master Lin was so angry he almost vomited blood, pointing at Lin Xiafei but unable to speak.
Seeing that the other members of the Lin family remained silent, clearly acknowledging Lin Xiafei's words, Dean Xia couldn't help but reveal a hint of sarcasm on his face.
"As the director of the county hospital, everything I have done can withstand an investigation by the organization. Comrade Ye is only nominally affiliated with our county hospital, and our hospital does not interfere with the amount of her consultation fees."
After saying that, he glanced at the Lin family with disdain and added, "Do you think a consultation fee of two thousand yuan is a lot? To be honest, Comrade Ye doesn't even care. He recently treated a foreign patient and the consultation fee was five thousand foreign currency."
"What?!" The Lin family looked at Dean Xia in disbelief. The eldest brother of the Lin family quickly asked, "Dean Xia, are you telling the truth?"
Lin Xiafei refused to believe it. "How is this possible? How could she have treated foreign guests?"
When have foreign guests ever visited Qingshan County?
Dean Xia coldly looked at the Lin family, "Believe it or not, it's up to you. This is a hospital. Please don't make noise here and disturb the patients' rest. Get out!"
Seeing Dean Xia's unpleasant expression, Brother Lin and the others knew they wouldn't get anything out of it, so they awkwardly said goodbye to Dean Xia and prepared to leave.
Xu Fei and the others stopped them, saying, "Wait, don't go yet. We received a report that Comrade Ye Weiwei cheated Comrade Lin out of two hundred yuan. Now the truth has come out, proving that Comrade Ye Weiwei is not a swindler. Does any of you Lin family members have any objections to this?"
Upon hearing this, Old Master Lin exploded in anger, grabbing a teacup from the table and throwing it at the Lin family members. "You bunch of bastards! Who told you to call the police! Are you trying to drive me to my death?!"
The Lin family was stunned, looking at each other in bewilderment. After a long while, they finally said, "We're innocent! We didn't report it to the police!"
Seeing that they didn't seem to be lying, Xu Fei said seriously, "The person who reported the case is a woman named Yu Huanhuan. Do you know her?"
Brother Lin's face was grim. "Officer, Yu Huanhuan is the caregiver we hired for my father, but we absolutely did not ask her to file a police report. This was all her own private behavior."
Hearing his children say this, Old Master Lin said with a dark face, "This Xiaoyu is really meddling more and more. My place is too small to contain such a big Buddha. Replace her!"
Brother Lin wanted to say a few good words for Yu Huanhuan, but seeing the old man's firm attitude, he had no choice but to agree.
Yu Huanhuan heard Old Master Lin's words as she returned from the pharmacy, and it was like a bolt from the blue.
She never imagined that her attempt to flatter him would backfire so badly, costing her a perfectly good job.
"Grandpa Lin, please don't send me away. I'm doing this for your own good!" Yu Huanhuan pleaded, rushing to Grandpa Lin's side.
She relies entirely on this job to support her family. Although the job only pays 12 yuan a month, Grandpa Lin is generous and doesn't care about the price. She often gets a lot of good things from him. All the odds and ends add up, and it's much better than working in a factory.
Because of this job, she has a lot of confidence at home. If she loses this job, her family will beat her to death when she gets back!
Grandpa Lin looked at Yu Huanhuan with a furrowed brow. “Yu Huanhuan, I, this old man, have never treated you unfairly. You’ve taken a lot of things from me and brought them home, and I’ve pretended not to see it. But who knew that you’d become so arrogant! I can’t support you here anymore. You should find another job.”
Upon hearing that Yu Huanhuan had been dishonest, the Lin family members all turned sour.
Lin Xiafei said bluntly, "Yu Huanhuan, hurry up and pack your things and take them away. We don't need you here anymore."
Police officer Xu stopped Yu Huanhuan and told her that she had made a false report without understanding the facts, and demanded that she apologize to Ye Weiwei.
Yu Huanhuan said angrily, "Officer, I'm not wrong. She cheated him out of money. She hasn't even cured Grandpa Lin's illness yet, and she's already taken two hundred yuan from him!"
Xu Fei, with a serious expression, told Yu Huanhuan what had happened, and then said in a deep voice, "If you refuse to admit your mistake, we will have no choice but to take you back for education. In your case, you will probably have to stay in jail for a month."
When Yu Huanhuan heard that she was going to be arrested, her legs went weak with fear. After gritting her teeth and apologizing to Ye Weiwei, she grabbed her lunchbox and water cup from the table and ran away crying.
After running to the hospital entrance, Yu Huanhuan turned around and glared fiercely in the direction of the ward, her eyes filled with resentment.
That wretched Ye Weiwei! That stinking country bumpkin!
If she hadn't meddled in other people's business and wanted to treat Old Master Lin's illness, she wouldn't have complained to the Lin family, and she wouldn't have lost such a good job and been reprimanded by Officer Xu!
She's so angry!
After the Lin family and Officer Xu left, Dean Xia smiled and said to Ye Weiwei, "Comrade Ye, would it be convenient for you to come to my office to talk now?"
Ye Weiwei looked at Huo Erge, who quickly said, "I'm fine. Lao San and Dad should be back soon. You go and do your thing."
Ye Weiwei then left with Dean Xia, leaving Old Master Lin, who had wanted to curry favor with her, feeling quite frustrated.
