Chapter 422 Tell your mother if I fooled her?
Qu Cui saw that it was really Ye Mei and couldn't help wondering, "Are you here to see Doctor Ye? But she's off work."
She didn't think Ye Mei was here to see a doctor, because she had never seen a patient with such a good complexion.
Ye Mei had heard Ye Qingyue mention Qu Cui's name at home, and knew that she was an acquaintance, so she stepped forward to explain her purpose: "I'm here to see my friend."
Qu Cui said: "What's your friend's name?"
Since she was Ye Qingyue's sister, she would naturally help.
Ye Mei said, "His name is Sheng Zhiwu, but it's not him who is in the hospital, it's his mother, who said she hanged herself and almost died."
Hearing "hanged herself", Qu Cui looked strange, she said, "I think I know who you are talking about."
Seeing her expression was not right, Ye Mei was about to ask, Qu Cui said, "I'll take you to recognize the person first, to see if it's the one."
"Okay."
Ye Mei thanked.
Qu Cui hurriedly told her not to be polite, and the two walked and said, "Doctor Ye has helped me a lot, I can't find any chance to repay you, I'm just showing you the way, it's a small thing."
Listening to her sister's colleague talking about the hospital, Ye Mei knew another side of her sister that she had never seen before, and her face was also a little more smiling.
The two of them unknowingly came to the third floor of the inpatient department. Just after turning a corner in the corridor, they heard a noise coming from a single ward at the end.
"Do you hope that I will die so that you will be happy?!"
"Why did I give birth to such a heartless thing like you!"
"If I had known this, why would I have gone through the trouble of being pregnant for ten months and giving birth to you and raising you?"
"Oh, my life is miserable! My life is so miserable!"
A woman's shouting came, first hysterical, then sad and bitter, as if she had suffered a great injustice.
When others heard it, it was easy to have a preconceived impression that she was a miserable woman.
Ye Mei frowned when she heard it. This was indeed the voice of Sheng's mother.
Qu Cui held Ye Mei back, not letting her get any closer, to avoid being discovered by the people in the ward. She lowered her voice and asked, "Do you recognize this voice? Is it the one you're looking for?"
Ye Mei nodded and said, "Yes, it's this one. Is her son here?"
"In the ward."
Qu Cui said, "The patient has been refusing to let her son leave. She has been making a lot of noise since she was admitted to the hospital at noon. Sigh, I think she shouldn't be admitted to the hospital. She doesn't sound like she's in trouble with such a strong voice."
Ye Mei asked, "Can you tell me what you know?"
Qu Cui was just looking for someone to complain to, but Ye Mei's question hit her heart, so she said, "The patient was taken to the hospital by her son at noon. She said she almost died from hanging herself, but the doctor didn't think there was anything wrong after examining her. But she kept yelling that she felt uncomfortable here and there, and the doctor was afraid that he had missed something, so he arranged for her to be admitted to the hospital for a more detailed examination." She
couldn't not be admitted to the hospital because Sheng's mother was making too much noise.
In order to keep things quiet, the doctor had to go along with her.
There have been patients like this before.
"After being admitted to the hospital, she had a checkup, asked her son to stay by her side, sent the nurse away, and talked alone. Soon, they started quarreling, and the noise was so loud that it could be heard even from outside."
Qu Cui raised her chin and pointed to the noisy ward, "Just like now."
"There were a lot of things in the quarrel, but to sum it up, she wanted to ask her son for money."
Qu Cui said, "She said she wanted this."
She gestured "three".
Ye Mei immediately understood: "Three thousand yuan?"
Qu Cui nodded and said, "At first she wanted five thousand, but then she slowly gave in."
Three thousand yuan, how many years will it take her to earn that much!
Ye Mei frowned. Although three or five thousand is not a small amount for Sheng Zhiwu, it is not a small amount. What
does Sheng's mother want to do with so much money?
"Well, I think the patient is determined to get money from her son and won't let him go."
Qu Cui sighed and said, "Even in our village, we only see parents stuffing money into their sons' hands. It's rare to see someone trying so hard to empty their sons' pockets."
I don't know what she's up to.
Ye Mei said, "Thank you for showing me the way. I'll go in and take a look first."
Qu Cui said in surprise, "You're going in directly? That's not good."
What if Mother Sheng takes her anger out on Ye Mei?
Qu Cui saw that although Ye Mei was tall, she was thin. Although she didn't have the soft and charming appearance of Ye Qingyue, her fair face looked like it would squeeze out water if you pinched it a little harder. She didn't look like she had any fighting power.
"How about I use the excuse of checking her alone and ask her son to come out, and you two can meet outside?" Qu Cui kindly suggested.
Ye Mei shook her head and said, "It's okay."
She knew Qu Cui was worried about her, but she was not that weak.
Ye Mei went straight into the ward.
As soon as she appeared, the woman on the bed stopped cursing.
When she found out that there was an outsider, Sheng's mother still had some dignity and stopped her fierce look.
After seeing that the person was Ye Mei, Sheng's mother raised her eyebrows, immediately recognized her, and was about to attack.
But Ye Mei spoke faster than her, and immediately shouted at Sheng Zhiwu angrily: "You are so good! I just heard it outside the door. If you have money, you should honor your mother, and if you don't have money, you should pay me back, right? Come on! Follow me to the police station to see the police! If you don't pay my bill today, you will be in jail!"
Sheng Zhiwu: "?"
Sheng's mother: "???"
Qu Cui, who was hiding outside the door because of worry: "???"
With the mother and son in a daze, Ye Mei grabbed Sheng Zhiwu's arm and tried to drag him out.
"What are you doing?!"
Sheng's mother rushed over and hugged Sheng Zhiwu's other arm to prevent him from leaving with Ye Mei, "What are you doing here! Are you trying to scare me?"
She was not stupid, how could she really think that her son owed money after listening to a few words from Ye Mei?
"Scaring you?"
Ye Mei let go of Sheng Zhiwu's arm, but grabbed his face and pulled him towards her.
On her usually bright and cheerful face, a bit of gloomy anger appeared at this moment: "Come on! Tell your mother whether I scared her or not?"
Sheng Zhiwu didn't know what kind of script Ye Mei had arranged for him. In order not to ruin Ye Mei's plan and not to hinder Ye Mei, he showed a speechless and ashamed look and wanted to lower his head.
But Ye Mei lifted his chin, threw his face to the side, and cursed: "A coward who dares to do it but dares not say it!"
Sheng Zhiwu staggered, held the bed railing and lowered his head without saying a word. It
was the first time that Ye Mei treated him like this, and he couldn't tell what he felt in his heart.
He wasn't angry, nor did he annoy her for being so aggressive. Instead, it was like a soft feather rubbing against the tip of his heart.
His fingers holding the railing slightly shrank.
After Ye Mei shook off Sheng Zhiwu's face, she didn't observe how he reacted, but glanced at Sheng's mother coldly.
That expression was arrogant, and she sneered: "You really raised a good son!"
Sheng's mother originally thought that Ye Mei and Sheng Zhiwu were in cahoots, acting to scare her.
But when Ye Mei glanced at her, she suddenly felt unsure in her heart, and always felt scary. Her voice couldn't help but lowered a few points: "You, what do you mean?"
