Chapter 49: Unable to Afford Treatment
Her parents' home is far away from here. Even if she goes back to complain, her family can only persuade her that since she is already married, what else can she do?
In this day and age, no one will accept a divorced woman.
So she endured it all until their child Fan Hanhan was diagnosed with acute leukemia, which broke down her inner defenses.
She broke down and cried, "Why is my child so pitiful? No matter what, I will save Fan Hanhan!" Fan Feng looked grim, and stepped forward to hold her, "If you have anything to say, let's talk at home. You can't solve the problem by making a fuss now! If my mother doesn't say it, we can't make the decision on this matter!"
Qiao Jin finally spoke: "Your mother is in the ward in front."
After hearing this, Fan Feng suddenly became nervous and stared at Qiao Jin: "My mother is in the hospital? What's going on?"
A hint of sarcasm appeared on Qiao Jin's lips: He was calm when his daughter was sick, but he was so impatient when his mother was sick?
It would be better for a man like this to just stay with his mother for the rest of his life. Why bother dragging others down?
Seeing that Qiao Jin ignored him, Fan Feng asked anxiously, "Doctor, what happened to my mother?"
The doctor didn't look too good either.
Isn't it obvious?
"Your mother fainted after hearing how expensive the treatment costs were. She had a high blood pressure attack, but it's nothing serious."
Upon hearing this, Fan Feng immediately turned around and ran towards the ward!
The woman was left alone, sobbing and asking the doctor: "Doctor, how much does it cost to cure my daughter?"
The doctor hesitated for a moment and replied, "I think it will cost about 400,000 or 500,000 yuan."
After hearing this, her face turned even paler.
She and Fan Feng earn less than fifteen thousand yuan each month.
Four or five hundred thousand.
This is money that they can never earn even if they work hard for their entire lives!
For a moment, the woman's body swayed and she almost couldn't stand.
Seeing this, Qiao Jin quickly stepped forward to support her, "Sister, don't worry."
The woman covered her mouth with her hands and cried suppressedly: "Hanhan...where is Hanhan? I want to go see her."
After getting the doctor's permission, Qiao Jin helped the mother into the ward.
After emergency treatment at the hospital, including giving Fan Hanhan a fever-reducing injection and an IV drip, the little girl finally woke up slowly from the coma caused by the fever.
It was just because there were too many medical devices connected to it. When she saw her mother coming in, little Fan Hanhan's eyes immediately filled with tears, "Mom, am I... am I going to die soon?"
"Why do I have so many...stuff on me?"
When the mother saw her precious daughter lying weakly on the bed, her heart was instantly gripped tightly. She immediately rushed to the bedside, "Hanhan, don't be afraid, mommy is here."
Fan Hanhan bit her lower lip and asked slowly, "Where's my brother?"
At this moment, Fan Yao also appeared.
When he found out his sister had woken up, the boy's emotions completely broke down. He ran over and said anxiously, "Hanhan, you're awake! I bought you some meat buns. Do you want some?"
Fan Hanhan wanted to raise her hand but found that her arm was extremely heavy due to the infusion and she couldn't lift it at all.
Tears welled up in Fan Hanhan's eyes. "Brother, I can't raise my hands. Brother, what happened? Can we still play together?"
Hearing this, Fan Yao burst into tears but said firmly: "It will be fine, Hanhan, brother will always be with you!"
This scene touched the softest part of everyone's heart, especially the mother who had been holding back her tears. Finally, she couldn't hold it back any longer, turned around and burst into tears, her body shaking uncontrollably.
Even though he had prepared himself mentally beforehand, Qiao Jin still felt heartbroken when he actually witnessed it all.
She slowly raised her hand and pressed it on her chest, but her nose still felt very sore.
In order to make his sister happier, Fan Yao carefully tore off a small portion of the bun in his hand and handed it to his sister, "Hanhan, do you want to eat something? Brother will feed you."
Although tears were still hanging in the corners of her eyes, the little girl nodded gently and said, "Brother, I'm so hungry."
"It's okay, don't be afraid, brother is here with you!"
Just at this moment, Fan Feng walked in with the old grandmother.
As soon as he entered the room, he frowned at Qiao Jin and said, "Comrade, please let our family members solve the problem internally. You can leave first."
Hearing this, Fan Yao quickly turned around and retorted with red eyes: "Dad, Sister Qiao Jin has no ill will towards us! It was because of her that my sister was able to receive medical treatment in time!"
"Fan Yao!"
Fan Feng interrupted him, "We are discussing a private matter now. It's not appropriate to have outsiders present, right?"
The old lady looked at everything in front of her with sharp eyes.
Although Fan Yao seemed scared, he still looked to Qiao Jin for help.
After noticing that the atmosphere was not right.
Qiao Jin sighed softly and decided to withdraw from the argument.
"I'm leaving."
After saying that, he walked out.
Seeing this, the old lady pulled her grandson over and whispered, "Fan Yao, didn't grandma tell you not to trust strangers? From today on, don't talk to that woman anymore, understand?"
"Sister Qiao Jin really helped a lot..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted: "Fan Yao——"
"How dare you talk back to your grandmother like that!"
"Why are you so mean to the child? Did he say anything wrong?"
The mother finally couldn't help but speak up to defend her son.
"Why do you lecture Fan Yao in this tone? If you are really capable, you should take care of your sick daughter yourself!"
"Mom, is it because I'm a woman? Isn't Hanhan our family? How can we just sit back and watch her..."
The woman's tears continued to flow and her voice became hoarse!
Old Mrs. Fan panted and said, "Okay, then you come and treat Fan Hanhan! Fan Hanhan's illness will cost four hundred thousand yuan. Are you planning to spend all our hard-earned money? We in the Fan family don't have the ability to do that. If you don't listen, we really can't take care of you!"
The woman almost collapsed, and shouted desperately: "Fan Hanhan is not just mine! How can you just ignore her like this? Fan Feng, isn't Hanhan your daughter?"
Fan Hanhan lay on the bed, tears streaming down her face.
Although she is young, she can understand what the adults are saying.
Her family is going to give up on her.
Fan Feng's face was extremely grim. "Ailian, what are you doing here? Mom has fainted due to high blood pressure, and you still want to make her angry and hurt herself? It's not that I don't want to treat her, it's that I can't afford it, and even if I sell all my belongings it won't be enough! Listen to mom, we will get Fan Hanhan discharged from the hospital tomorrow."
"What?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Didn't the doctor say that the condition won't get worse soon? Let's go home first and think of a solution. Do you know how expensive a day of hospitalization is? More than a hundred dollars! We can't afford it!"
