Chapter 145 Setting up a stall to earn medical expenses
Around nine o'clock in the evening, Yu Zhiming and his fourth sister walked into a coffee shop not far from Zijinyuan Community.
He saw Luo Qing at a glance, and the burgundy-haired woman in her mid-thirties who was with her.
The woman with burgundy hair also saw Yu Zhiming, and quickly pulled Luo Qing, and they stood up together to greet him.
"Hello, Doctor Yu, I'm Aunt Luo Qing, Luo Ying."
"Hello, this is my sister Yu Xiangwan..."
After getting to know each other and exchanging brief greetings, both parties sat down and the Yu siblings each ordered a glass of lemonade.
Yu Zhiming returned Luo Qing's medical images and physical examination data to Luo Ying.
"Like I said on the phone earlier..."
Yu Zhiming frankly admitted, "This is a treatment where disappointment far outweighs hope. It's a risky one, requires considerable pain, a long wait, and is also quite expensive."
Luo Qing clenched the coffee cup in her hand and said slowly: "Doctor Yu, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, I will not give up."
"No matter what I go through during treatment, I'm not afraid. Even if the outcome is no different, worse, or even death, I won't regret it."
Luo Qing said solemnly, "At least, I can tell myself that I once risked my life to see the light again."
Luo Ying let out a long breath and looked at Yu Zhiming.
"I can't persuade Luo Qing anymore, so I just support her as much as I can."
"Doctor Yu, we've learned a lot about your situation online. We know you've also experienced blindness."
"I can only hope that my Luo Qing can be as lucky as you."
Yu Zhiming nodded and said, "Thank you for your trust!"
"Regarding Luo Qing's specific situation, I can only say that I will do my best to avoid any accidents during the treatment process."
After a pause, he said to Luo Qing, "The first stage of treatment involves surgical puncture to dissolve the blood clot in the optic nerve area. This will take about a week."
"The subsequent recovery will take at least one month."
"Luo Qing, take care of your work and personal matters, and come to Qi Yue Medical Research Center to see me as soon as possible..."
Walking out of the cafe, Yu Zhiming felt suddenly heavy-hearted as he watched Luo Qing holding her aunt's arm and walking slowly in another direction.
"Sister, Luo Qing's selfless treatment this time can be said to have been provoked by me."
“I don’t know whether I did the right thing or the wrong thing.”
Yu Xiangwan consoled him, "Luo Qing is a 22-year-old adult, and you've clearly explained the risks of treatment."
"If this treatment wasn't what Luo Qing wanted, she wouldn't be so determined."
"Old Five, even without you, I think one day Luo Qing would find another doctor and go crazy."
Yu Xiangwan advised again, "Old Five, you should think about it this way. It is because of your presence that the possibility of Luo Qing regaining his sight has increased a little."
"I hope so!" Yu Zhiming replied with mixed feelings.
The next moment, he felt his hand being held.
Yu Zhiming tried to shake it off but failed.
"Sister, there are so many people around."
Yu Xiangwan glared and said, "What's wrong with so many people? When your eyes were not good, I took you to and from school like this every day."
Yu Zhiming explained: "Sister, my eyes are fine now, and I'm not a child anymore."
"I'm not a kid, I'm your sister too!"
As Yu Xiangwan spoke, she held Yu Zhiming's arm even tighter.
"It's so rare that my sister and I can go out together so late at night. Come on, walk around with me."
"I know there's a night market not far away..."
Yu Zhiming was forced by his sister to stroll around.
Perhaps because the surrounding residential areas are relatively concentrated, there are still quite a lot of pedestrians on the street where the two are strolling.
Although the shops on both sides of the street are small ground floor shops, they sell all kinds of things, and the majority are small food shops.
Walking from the center of the street to the corner, Yu Xiangwan already had a large bunch of roasted lamb, a bunch of large squid, and a small box of crab shell yellow sesame cakes in his hands...
The night market that Yu Xiangwan mentioned consisted of many small stalls covered by a large shed.
In the morning, this is the vegetable market.
At night, this place becomes a gathering place for small vendors and street food trucks.
Yu Zhiming took a quick look and saw that the place was bustling with people coming and going...
"Old Five, Old Five, look, where are the blind boxes!"
Yu Zhiming was dragged by his sister to a stall, where he saw dozens of identical blue paper boxes piled on a one-meter-high platform.
The stall owner was a thin man in his thirties. Seeing a customer coming, he smiled and said, "Eighty-eight yuan a box, take whatever you want."
"The top prize is Huawei's latest Huawei MATE50, which is priced at 12,999 yuan."
"The cheapest thing out of the box wouldn't be worth less than fifty yuan on the market."
"Beautiful lady, handsome guy, would you like to try your luck?"
Yu Xiangwan's eyes lit up as he said, "Old Five, hurry up and pick out the blind box containing the phone. You're still short of a phone."
Yu Zhiming reminded her, "Sister, if I choose the blind box, it would be considered cheating. It's not good to take advantage of it when you know it's a bargain."
"Besides, there's no way that Huawei phone could be found in this pile of boxes."
The stall owner was unhappy when Yu Zhiming said this.
"Handsome guy, how can you be sure that the Huawei phone is not in the blind box? What I sell here are all regular blind boxes, and all the necessary products are included."
Yu Zhiming snorted and pointed at a pile of boxes on the stall.
"There are only about seventy or eighty boxes in this pile, right?"
"If you can definitely get that phone worth over 10,000 yuan, then I'll buy all these blind boxes."
"Can you promise?"
The stall owner was stunned for a moment, then chuckled and said, "I'm saying that this batch of blind boxes will definitely contain that phone, but I can't guarantee that these boxes will definitely contain that phone."
"I'm not stupid. If I knew that phone was definitely in there, would I still sell it at a loss?"
"These blind boxes have already opened on their own."
When Yu Xiangwan heard what the stall owner said, he knew that the blind box must have been tampered with and there was nothing of high value in it, so he lost interest instantly.
She took Yu Zhiming for a stroll and was particularly interested in the 10% off clothes on several stalls that were said to be sold by shopping malls as they were closing down or closing down their stores.
However, Yu Xiangwan looked around with great interest but didn't buy anything.
She finally realized that she and her brother needed to upgrade their consumption and no longer needed to buy cheap goods.
Yu Xiangwan was just about to tell Yu Zhiming this when she unexpectedly discovered that he was no longer by her side.
Looking around, Yu Xiangwan finally found that Lao Wu was in front of a small stall selling fried rice not far away.
She walked over quickly.
"Old Five, are you hungry? I have half a squid and two crab shells for you to eat!"
When Yu Xiangwan came closer, he found that his younger brother was talking to the stall owner who was busy stir-frying beef noodles.
"Lao Wu, do you know the stall owner?"
Yu Xiangwan asked as he looked at the busy stall owner, a man in his thirties, who looked a little tired.
There was some sweat and oiliness on his face, but his facial features looked pretty good.
"Fourth sister, this is Zhang Bai. I told you once before that his mother is in the hospital..."
Hearing this, some of Yu Xiangwan's vague memories were unexpectedly brought back.
The guy who begged his brother for help so that the hospital could admit his mother who had advanced stomach cancer?
"You're a chef?"
Zhang Bai put the fried beef noodles into a disposable lunch box, put it in a plastic bag, and handed it to the customer waiting nearby.
While scrubbing the pot skillfully, he replied, "I'm not a chef, I just like cooking."
"I'm pretty good at making egg fried rice, fried beef noodles, and fried noodles."
Yu Zhiming moved closer to his fourth sister and lowered his voice.
"He said he used to work in management at a company, but he had to resign because his mother was diagnosed with an illness."
"Now, his mother can sleep well every night with the help of medicine. He takes this opportunity to come here to set up a stall and earn some medical expenses."
Yu Xiangwan let out a long "oh" and suddenly felt deep sympathy for the man in front of him.
She said loudly: "Boss, one serving each of egg fried rice, fried beef noodles, and fried noodles."
"We're going to take away..."
