NOVEL NEXT Chapter 3 - I
Xie Qi returned to City A. Although the medical expenses seemed to be settled, he still felt a little uneasy in his heart.
The next day, he went to school and received the money raised from donations organized by his teachers. He also suppressed his temper and took a half-day class.
As soon as school was over at noon, he ran to the bank. As a result, he went to the bank to swipe his card and saw that there was indeed money in the account, but it was only 100,000.
Xie Qi repeatedly confirmed the amount, and it was indeed one hundred thousand. After being silent for a while, he called Uncle Wang.
Uncle Wang also answered immediately, and before Xie Qi could speak, he said helplessly: “Your dad checked and found that the cost of your mom’s surgery is less than 40,000 yuan.”
Xie Qi almost rolled his eyes. He said, “He only wanted to take out one hundred thousand. If he wants me to return to the Xie’s family, he needs to give me three hundred thousand.”
Uncle Wang said: “Hey, Qiqi, your father just found out that your mother is married. He can pay your mother’s medical expenses, but he is not willing to pay medical expenses for other men.”
Xie Qi said “ha” and said sarcastically: “He can remarry, but my mother can’t? How many years have they been divorced, and he still want my mother to keep her body for him?”
Uncle Wang: “…”
Xie Qi said: “Uncle Wang, please tell him. I will not return to Xie’s house until 300,000 yuan is received. Otherwise, forget about it.”
After Xie Qi finished speaking, he hung up the phone. The three hundred thousand was obviously not a big sum of money for the Xie family, but his father was unwilling.
.
After hanging up the phone, he went to the hospital to pay. After paying the money, when he arrived at the ward, he found that Jiang Sining was already awake.
The doctor was in the ward and talked to her. After chatting for a while, he used a flashlight to check her eyes.
There were a lot of people in the ward, and Xie Qi couldn’t get in, so he waited outside.
When the doctor was done examined his mother, she saw him when she came out, she discussed with him: “Your mother’s physical indicators are all good now. If you agree, the surgery can be arranged tomorrow afternoon.”
Of course, Xie Qi has no objection. It would be best to have the surgery as soon as possible.
After discussing the surgery plan, Xie Qi naturally had no objections.
The only problem was Teacher Hou’s surgery fee had not been raised yet.
After saying goodbye to the doctor, Xie Qi walked into the ward.
There weren’t many orthopedic surgery patients left. The middle-aged men who originally shared the same ward with Jiang Sining had all been discharged from the hospital this morning.
Xie Qi walked to the bed and looked at Jiang Sining carefully. She had been unconscious before, and he couldn’t see her eyes. Now that she woke up, he could see clearly. Jiang Sining’s eyes were covered with varying degrees of white, like white mist.
Jiang Sining said sadly, “Now we are both blind.”
Xie Qi: “…I’m not blind yet.”
His eyesight was bad, and it was indeed difficult to see, but he was not blind.
Xie Qi sat down, took the apples from the cabinet, and started peeling them.
Jiang Sining said, “I don’t want to eat; I have no appetite.”
Xie Qi kept peeling the skin, “If you don’t eat it, I’ll eat it. I haven’t had lunch yet.”
Jiang Sining: “…”
She was in a bad mood and put her head back into bed.
The two of them had a tacit understanding not to mention Teacher Hou, and saying about him would only add the sadness.
Xie Qi ate the peeled apple and asked her, “Do you want something to eat? I’ll make it for you when I get home.”
Jiang Sining said dully, “I have no appetite.”
Xie Qi said, “You have to eat even if you don’t have an appetite. I’ll make you some vegetable porridge when I go home.”
Xie Qi took action as soon as he said that. After all, he was young and would not feel tired even if he was running around like this.
Only the afternoon sun was too strong, which made his dry eyes feel very uncomfortable. After putting on a baseball cap, he tilted his head and put eye drops into his eyes. He felt that his eyes were much clearer before he walked out of the hospital gate.
.
Xie Qi’s mood has always been stable, but no matter how stable he was, he felt heartbroken when he found out that the shared bicycle he had ridden and parked at the back door of a very remote hospital had been taken away by someone.
Xie Qi had no choice but to walk out of the hospital and looked for a street in the bright sun before finding another shared bicycle. He rode home and hurriedly made porridge. He was afraid that Jiang Sining would lose his appetite, so he cooked a dish to add with the porridge.
Packing it in a thermos bucket, Xie Qi rode a shared bicycle and hurried to the hospital.
On the way back to the ward, Xie Qi saw the lady again. His eyesight was not very good, but he could clearly see that she was a very beautiful woman. She looked to be in her twenties at most. She looked very young because her demeanor was very youthful.
She was standing in the corridor, talking on the phone. Xie Qi didn’t eavesdrop on purpose because she was too high-profile, and her voice was very clear and loud, “…Dad, why don’t we send Yizhi to Country M? Do you think country M’s medical care is very advanced? Maybe he can be cured.”
Xie Qi walked to the ward, but before he had taken a few steps, he heard the lady stamping her feet crazily in the corridor and said loudly and emotionally.
“Dad, you don’t care about your grandson at all. Do you have other grandsons? I feel that he is not important anymore! If you continue to deal with me like this, I will commit suicide to accompany my son!”
Xie Qi: “…”
He was glad in his heart that although Jiang Sining was young at heart, she was not as emotional as this woman. If she screamed like her every day, not only would his eyesight be bad, but his hearing might also suffer.
There were two nurses closer to Xie Qi, whispering there: “She comes here every day to make trouble, isn’t she tired?”
Only then did Xie Qi realize that it was not just once or twice, and he had no intention of watching any more. He hurried into the orthopedic surgery ward and sent the insulated thermos to Jiang Sining’s bed.
