Chapter 23 Chapter 23 Steamed Egg with Minced Pork is Tender and Delicious
Su Tianli quickly asked what was going on.
Zhang Wei then told her everything:
Ever since Su Tianli entrusted Old Lady Su and her group to Mao Li and asked Mao Li to take them to the hospital for tests,
Zhang Wei was thinking about it. Su Tianli said that she would invite everyone to have dinner at the state-owned restaurant.
So he went to find Cheng Yu, wanting to bring Cheng Yu along to have a meal.
He did so.
When I ran to the bridge tunnel and took a look, I was shocked!
The door was open, bricks, torn clothes, and even shoes were scattered outside the door...
Zhang Wei was frightened and called out to Cheng Yu several times but no one answered.
So he stuck his head into the house to see.
But found no one there?
Zhang Wei shouted and searched everywhere again, and finally found a faint movement in the vegetable garden.
He ran to the vegetable garden and found Cheng Yu lying on the ground motionless, but his hands were desperately digging to make a little noise so that Zhang Wei could find him.
Zhang Wei was extremely anxious and kept asking Cheng Yu what happened, but Cheng Yu was unable to speak.
Seeing Cheng Yu covered in blood, Zhang Wei quickly picked him up and prepared to take him to the hospital.
Unexpectedly, Cheng Yu struggled desperately...
Zhang Wei was sweating all over. The two of them talked at cross purposes for a long time before Zhang Wei understood Cheng Yu's intention - he was protecting the food in the stone trough under him!
At that time, Cheng Yu insisted that he move the stone slab away. After taking out the food packed in dry lotus leaves, he held it tightly in his arms and did not move.
Only then did Zhang Wei take Cheng Yu to the hospital.
Cheng Yu is still in the emergency department right now!
When Su Tianli heard this, she immediately rushed into the emergency department.
Cheng Yu had just been stitched up by the doctor and was now wrapped in white gauze like a big dumpling, lying motionless on the hospital bed.
He was shirtless, with white gauze on his chest extending from his left neck to his lower right abdomen!
His hair was shaved and his head was wrapped in thick gauze.
His entire right hand was wrapped in gauze...
Soon, Su Tianli's gaze stopped at Cheng Yu's left hand.
——His left hand was clenched into a fist, lying flat on the bed, with a piece of red nylon rope sticking out from each side of the fist;
Su Tianli looked at the bedside table next to the hospital bed again - there was a lotus leaf lunch bag wrapped in a net bag. The dry lotus leaf, which should have been brown and yellow, was stained with blood that had dried up and was almost as red as ink.
Adding to what Zhang Wei said earlier...
Su Tianli closed her eyes.
At this time, the nurse saw Su Tianli standing in front of Cheng Yu's bed and asked, "Comrade, are you a family member of the patient?"
Su Tianli rolled her eyes and asked instead of answering, "Sister nurse, how is his condition?"
The nurse said bluntly:
——Nothing serious happened, just skin injuries. The wound on the chest looks scary, but it’s not a vital part. The wound is relatively shallow and has been sutured.
The most serious injury is his right hand, which has been sutured now. He must always pay attention to it. If it does not recover well, it may affect the body's functions.
The most serious injury was to the back of his head.
Oh yes, he lost too much blood, so his family gave him a blood transfusion...
Then the nurse gave a series of nursing precautions.
Su Tianli nodded repeatedly, and thought: A family member donated blood to Cheng Yu? Which family member? !
At this time, the nurse asked again, "...Has he had a head injury before? The doctor found old scars when he examined him."
Su Tianli sighed, "I don't know either. He's just my friend. I've only been back to Guangzhou for a few days!"
"However, I did hear that he had fallen and hit the back of his head before."
The nurse exclaimed, "After all this time, you're not his family member? Then who will pay his bills?"
Su Tianli shook her head, "I'm not, I'm just his old classmate."
The nurse frowned, "That won't work. You have to go get his family."
Su Tianli said: "How about you call his family?"
The nurse's eyes widened. "Me? I call his family? Are you kidding me? How would I know who his family is?"
Su Tianli said word by word: "His name is Cheng Yu, and his mother is Wang Aiqin, the deputy director of the personnel department of your hospital... Oh no, your deputy director Wang is not Cheng Yu's biological mother, she is Cheng Yu's adoptive mother."
The nurse was stunned.
Previously, Cheng Yu and He Wanqian were switched at birth, which was big news!
The Municipal People’s Hospital is at the center of the storm!
Because they were both born in the Municipal People's Hospital,
Moreover, the male protagonist's adoptive mother, Wang Aiqin, also happens to work at the Municipal People's Hospital.
All of a sudden, all kinds of conspiracy theories emerged.
But there is only one mainstream opinion - it was Wang Aiqun who did it.
Because Wang Aiqin always wanted a son, she got pregnant three times in a row, but then nothing happened. She and her husband announced to the public that the baby was not kept. Some people said, why would she get pregnant three times and then claim that the baby was not kept after the baby was full-term? She must have given birth to a daughter but didn't want her, so she might have given her away.
As a result, the Municipal People's Hospital and Wang Aiqin were questioned everywhere.
Wang Aiqin was so angry at the time that she kept protesting her injustice, but no one believed her!
In the end, it was He Wanqian who stood up and said that the child-swap was done by Wang Aiqin's sister-in-law Cheng Yue.
Cheng Yue has been dead for ten years, and there is no evidence.
Cheng Yu was dumbfounded again.
That's how the matter ended.
Now, Su Tianli told the nurse that the injured young man was Wang Aiqin’s adopted son Cheng Yu?
The nurse quickly stepped back and looked at the patient's name on the note hanging on the footboard of the bed - Chen Yu? !
The nurse asked Su Tianli again, "What is his name?"
"His name is Cheng Yu, Cheng means procedure. He was born without being loved by his father and mother, so even if he gets injured, he will heal himself without any care!" Su Tianli said sarcastically.
The nurse showed a look of surprise on her face, took out a pen, crossed out "Chen Yu", and wrote the two words "Cheng Yu" neatly.
"Then I'll call Deputy Section Chief Wang right now!" After saying that, the nurse left in a hurry.
Su Tianli then came out and asked Mao Li and Zhang Wei, "Who gave Cheng Yu the blood?"
Mao Li replied: "Your second uncle! His blood type is exactly the same as Cheng Yu's!"
Su Tianli suddenly realized what was going on and asked, "Where are my grandma and the others?"
Mao Li replied, "The test has been completed. I'm afraid they will be tired, so I'll let them sit in the hospital cafeteria and wait for you."
She also told Su Tianli: When Zhang Wei brought Cheng Yu here, they were both covered in blood, which scared her! Later she found out that it was all Cheng Yu's blood.
After Cheng Yu was admitted, the doctor said that he had lost too much blood and asked Zhang Wei whether to use blood from the blood bank or have a blood transfusion from his family.
The difference between the two is that the former requires money to buy plasma, while the latter only requires payment for the injection.
Zhang Wei asked about the price of blood transfusion, and then everyone fell silent.
When Su Tianli's second uncle heard that his niece's friend was in trouble and needed to donate blood, he said that he also had type B blood and could donate blood to Cheng Yu.
So, after having his blood drawn, the second uncle felt a little dizzy, so Mao Li took them to the cafeteria to sit down.
Su Tianli thanked Mao Li, "Thank you!"
Mao Li waved her hands repeatedly.
At this time, the nurse came over to find Su Tianli and said, "Comrade, Deputy Section Chief Wang said that she...she doesn't know Cheng Yu and won't help Cheng Yu pay."
Su Tianli smiled, "Don't worry, sister, Deputy Section Chief Wang will definitely pay for it!"
Then Su Tianli turned to Zhang Wei and said, "Zhang Wei, please go to the police station. We need to call the police."
Zhang Wei was stunned.
The nurse's eyes widened in shock as well.
Su Tianli said word by word: "We are calling the police for two things. One is to hold the person who beat Cheng Yu criminally responsible. The other is that we want Cheng Yu's injuries examined. Whoever beat Cheng Yu must be responsible for Cheng Yu's medical expenses and compensation!"
"The second thing is, if the police can't find the murderer for the time being, then Cheng Yu's medical expenses will of course be paid by his guardian! Whoever's household registration Cheng Yu's name is on, the head of the household registration is his guardian! He is so injured now, shouldn't his guardian pay for his medical treatment?"
"Zhang Wei, go quickly!" Su Tianli said.
Unexpectedly, the nurse ran faster than Zhang Wei!
However, Zhang Wei also nodded and turned to go to the police station.
Soon, Wang Aiqin rushed to the emergency department and shouted, "Hey! Who said he was going to call the police? The treatment fee is only 36 yuan! It's just such a small amount of money, why did you call the police?"
Just after she finished speaking, Wang Aiqin suddenly saw Su Tianli, "Ah, you..."
The nurse pointed at Su Tianli and said to Wang Aiqin, "Deputy Section Chief Wang, it's her! She is Cheng Yu's friend, and she is the one who will call the police."
Wang Aiqin was stunned. "Aren't you...Su Youzi's sister?"
Su Tianli smiled and said, "Yes, Aunt Wang, I am not only Su Youzi's sister, I am also Cheng Yu's classmate. Look, how about you pay Cheng Yu's medical expenses first? When the police come, we can explain that this is just a misunderstanding."
Wang Aiqun’s face darkened instantly.
Wang Aiqun was furious.
She stared at Su Tianli intently. She was angry at Su Tianli's "betrayal" and furious at Su Tianli for being so blind as to dare to threaten her.
It wasn't until Zhang Wei led two police officers wearing uniforms and wearing big hats into the emergency room ward that
Wang Aiqun started to panic.
She quickly said to the nurse beside her: "Go get Cheng Yu's bill and put it on my account."
The nurse asked, "Deputy Wang, would you like to use your reimbursement amount?"
Wang Aiqin's heart ached so much that it was about to bleed. She gritted her teeth and answered, "Yes!"
The nurse quickly ran away, and came back after a while, first handed a form to Wang Aiqun, and then handed her a pen.
Wang Aiqun glared at Su Tianli fiercely, took the pen, quickly signed her name on the form, then snorted heavily, turned around and left.
The police officer spoke up, "What's going on? Who wants to call the police?"
Su Tianli rushed over and said, "Comrade from the Public Security Bureau, we are the ones who need to call the police! His name is Cheng Yu, come and take a look, he was beaten up like this in the middle of the night for no reason..."
The police were very responsible and immediately asked the doctor who had just sutured Cheng Yu to come over and write a report on his injury.
And because Zhang Wei was the first person to discover the situation on the scene,
At that moment, Zhang Wei took the police to the bridge tunnel.
Su Tianli ran to find the nurse who had just met her. "Hello, sister. Can you please hire a nurse for Cheng Yu? The bill should be put on record by Deputy Section Chief Wang."
Nurse: "Huh?"
"Then who will take care of Deputy Section Chief Wang's son?" Su Tianli asked back.
The nurse hesitated, "This..."
Su Tianli said: "We are just Cheng Yu's friends, not his relatives, so we can't stay in the hospital to take care of him all the time. Deputy Section Chief Wang is Cheng Yu's mother, so it's only natural for her to take care of Cheng Yu!"
"Besides, Deputy Section Chief Wang has a reimbursement quota every month, and she doesn't have to pay with real money..."
Finally, Su Tianli threatened with a smile, "If there is really no one to take care of Cheng Yu, then we have no choice but to continue to report the situation to Deputy Section Chief Wang's superiors."
The nurse gritted her teeth and said, "Okay then!"
Su Tianli smiled gratefully and said, "Thank you, sister!"
The nurse sighed, "You don't have to thank me. Cheng Yu... is indeed pitiful, eh!"
Su Tianli temporarily solved Cheng Yu’s problem and hurried to the cafeteria with Mao Li.
It was already past dinner time, and Old Lady Su and her group were sitting quietly in a corner, looking very depressed.
Su Tianli had already discussed with Mao Li that it was too late to go to the state-owned restaurant now, so they could just have a quick meal in the hospital cafeteria at noon and then go to the state-owned restaurant for dinner in the evening.
Soon, Su Tianli was responsible for comforting the relatives, while Mao Li took the money given by Su Tianli and went to buy food.
The food produced in the hospital cafeteria has all advantages except that it tastes bad - it's cheap and comes in large quantities!
In particular, you can buy meals suitable for people with poor stomachs like Grandma Su.
Mao Li asked the auntie who served the food, "Auntie, my elder has stomach cancer. Is there anything suitable for her to eat?"
The auntie who served the food asked Mao Li to prepare a portion of rice soup and vegetable porridge and a portion of steamed egg with minced meat, and told her, "In the future, you must let the old man eat light and soft food!"
Then Mao Li asked the auntie who served the food what people who had just donated blood should eat to recover;
The auntie who served the food recommended lean meat, red dates and wolfberry soup, and asked Mao Li to buy another portion of fried pork liver with leeks.
When Mrs. Su saw the rice soup and vegetable paste and steamed egg with minced meat that Mao Li bought for her,
When she saw other people's meals, except for the two sick dishes of her son who had donated blood, everyone else had very simple rice with vegetables and pickles, the old lady's eyes became red again, "It's all my fault. Why did I get such a rich disease? The family still owes so much debt!"
These words made my second uncle's family all choke up with sobs.
Su Tianli also felt bad.
Hey, money, money, money!
Life without money is really difficult.
For a moment, Su Tianli suddenly became shaken again.
——If she had followed the path of her previous life, she would have taken advantage of the reform and opening up to start a company and make a lot of money, and then pursue her dreams when she became financially free...
As soon as this thought popped into his mind, it was strangled to death in the cradle by Su Tianli.
She knows herself too well.
Until the age of 40, I still have to take the college entrance examination to pursue my dream again.
This proves that she has always kept this matter in her heart and can't let it go no matter what.
So, a seemingly glamorous life is always imperfect.
Although she is not He Wanqian and Fu Yan, who were reborn to make up for their regrets, she has already seen the opportunity and should work hard for her dream.
As for making money, there shouldn't be any conflict.
Or she could do both!
"Grandma, you eat first!" Su Tianli said, "...You can't starve now."
Then she turned around and told her second uncle and second aunt, "Uncle, aunt, you should also be careful when eating in the future. Eat less stale leftovers and pickled vegetables, and don't add too much salt when cooking..."
Sudden--
Someone shouted "Lychee".
Su Tianli turned around and saw Yao Meiyu? !
"Lizhi, you're really here!" Yao Meiyu came over in a hurry. "I went to your house to look for you, but I found nothing. Your brother said you brought grandma to the hospital for treatment?"
Next, Yao Meiyu exchanged greetings with Old Mrs. Su and the Sun family.
Su Tianli knew clearly in her mind - Ayu must have something to find her for, otherwise she wouldn't have gone to her home first and then to the hospital.
She first invited Yao Meiyu to have dinner together.
Yao Meiyu didn't complain and sat down to eat. While eating, she complained, "The food in this hospital cafeteria is so disgusting!"
Su Tianli smiled and said, "Is the food in your hospital cafeteria delicious?"
Yao Meiyu paused. "Are you kidding? There are only about 20 people in our health center, including leaders, doctors and nurses. We don't have a cafeteria. We always go to the cafeteria of the towel factory next door... But you are right. The food produced in the cafeteria is not delicious..."
After dinner, Yao Meiyu urged Su Tianli to get some free vegetable leaf soup.
Su Tianli understood and followed Yao Meiyu to the soup bucket.
As expected, Yao Meiyu anxiously asked Su Tianli, "Can you leave in a while?"
"What's wrong?" Su Tianli asked.
Yao Meiyu said, "Didn't you ask me to help you look for a house? My sister-in-law called me this morning and said that two houses were vacant at the Shaou Street Housing Management Office and asked if you were free to go and take a look."
Then, Yao Meiyu explained in detail:
According to Su Tianli's previous requirements for a house, Shaou Street is the most suitable one! Because there is a police station, a street office and a neighborhood committee near Shaou Street, with many functional departments, wide roads and good public security.
In short, the orientation, layout, rent, etc. of the house may not meet Su Tianli's requirements.
But from the perspective of public security and transportation, it is very suitable for Su Tianli.
That's why Yao Meiyu rushed to find Su Tianli.
Hearing this, Su Tianli asked Yao Meiyu, "Is Shaou Street far from here?"
"It's not far, but it's not close either," Yao Meiyu explained. "If it's not close, it takes an hour to walk there, and you have to take a ferry across the river. If it's not far, it only takes 20 minutes by bus, but you have to change buses."
When Su Tianli heard this, she thought it was indeed suitable.
——Given how stingy Su Dejun and Tian Xiu are, if they want to visit her in the future, not only will the journey be long, but they will also have to spend money on the round-trip bus ride. I'm sure they won't be willing to go.
After a moment's silence, Su Tianli said, "Then I'll take my grandma and the others with me! Just think of it as... taking them out for a trip."
Yao Meiyu certainly had no objection.
In this way, under the leadership of Su Tianli, everyone followed Yao Meiyu to take a bus, then took a ferry to cross the Pearl River, and then took another bus before finally arriving at Shaou Street.
Yao Meiyu first went to the Shaou Street Housing Management Office and found an acquaintance of her sister-in-law.
Then he took Su Tianli, Mao Li and the Sun family to look at houses together.
Two houses:
——The first one is on the first floor of the Coal Bureau’s family compound. It has a yard, three bedrooms and a living room, with a separate toilet and kitchen. The downside is that the living room has no windows, and one of the bedrooms has a window facing the living room. The upside is that the yard is very large, almost twenty square meters.
——The other house is on the fourth floor of the Grain Bureau’s family compound. It has two bedrooms and a living room. Its advantage is that it is relatively spacious. Its disadvantage is that it is on the top floor, so its ceiling is not a concrete ceiling like the ones on the first, second and third floors, but a pointed arch tile ceiling. Currently, the ceiling of this house is severely exposed to water.
After Su Tianli looked at the houses carefully, she already wanted the first three-bedroom apartment on the first floor.
Firstly, the house was in the family compound of a company, with a guard post, and according to the staff of the Housing Management Office, all the people living in this building were officials from the Coal Bureau. So it should be better for her, a girl, to live alone in terms of safety.
Secondly, the price is quite reasonable, the rent is 12 yuan a month, and the water and electricity are paid by yourself.
Of course, this price is not expensive for a three-bedroom house, but it is still a heavy burden for Su Tianli.
At this time, Second Aunt suddenly asked, "Lizhi, you... want to rent a house?"
Su Tianli nodded.
Second Aunt asked again, "Do you live alone?"
Su Tianli nodded again.
Second Aunt said hesitantly, "Lizhi, can we rent this house with you, and your grandma can stay in Guangzhou for treatment?"
Second Aunt had probably had enough of Tian Xiu's bullying, so she quickly explained, "Don't worry, we don't mean to leave your grandma to you alone. We also know that you are of different generations, so the responsibility of supporting your grandma doesn't fall on you."
"The main thing is that the doctor also said that it would be best for your grandma to stay in Guangzhou so that it would be more convenient for her to have a follow-up check."
"Lizhi, after you rent this house, give your grandma a room, and I'll let Juan stay here too... You can go to work during the week, and Juan will clean and cook for you, and take care of her grandma! Oh, and we can pay for the food, too."
As Second Aunt spoke, Second Uncle nodded.
Su Tianli began to think seriously about it.
After a while, she nodded.
——In any case, when Tian Xiu threw her and her third sister back to her hometown to be raised by her grandmother, she didn't give them a penny. The food rations for her and her third sister were indeed what the relatives saved from their own food for her and her sister.
This feeling must be remembered.
Besides, having grandma and Juan by her side is much safer than living alone.
So Su Tianli nodded, "Okay!"
The Sun family finally showed sincere smiles on their faces.
