Siheyuan: Xu Damao's New Life

Qin Huairu pushed a cart to take Banggeng to the hospital, but Jia Zhangshi did not go. She grabbed Liu Haizhong and asked, "Uncle, my Banggeng has suffered a lot this time. Can you give me some money from the fund?"

"Oh, you are talking about the provident fund, right? Does your family want to apply for provident fund assistance?" Liu Haizhong said.

"Yes, yes, yes. Isn't it true that anyone in the compound who is in need can apply for the provident fund? My family is in need now, and we also want to apply." Jia Zhang nodded frantically like a chick pecking at rice.

"Any family in the hospital can apply, except yours!" Liu Haizhong said firmly.

"Why? Do you look down on our Jia family? Hey, old man, Dongxu, this Liu Haizhong bullies us orphans and widows, come up quickly and take him away!"

Jia Zhang sat down on the ground again, but this time she didn't slap her thighs, but scratched the purple-black birthmark-like thing on her body from time to time. These days, the bumps on her body are getting bigger and bigger, and itchy. When they flare up, she wants to scratch her skin.

Yi Zhonghai had not gone out to watch the excitement, but just stood in front of the window quietly watching the situation in the courtyard. He usually did not get involved in the affairs of the courtyard, but just lived a closed-door life with his wife and children. At this time, he saw Jia Zhang scratching the pimple on her body, and a smile of conspiracy appeared on her face.

Liu Haizhong's face was also a little dark, "Why? Don't you know why? Think about how many troubles your Jia family has caused over the years? Which fines have you paid?"

"When did your Jia family donate money to the housing fund during the Chinese New Year? Now you have the nerve to ask me for a subsidy. Ask everyone whether this subsidy should be given to your Jia family!"

The housing fund of the hospital is settled at the end of each year. In addition to the money paid out during the year, most of the money will be distributed to the needy households in the hospital. There are two main sources of funds: one is the voluntary donations from the well-off families, and the other is the fines paid by the residents of the hospital after they make mistakes.

The Jia family did not do either of these things, and only wanted to take advantage. This harmed the interests of the residents in the courtyard, so of course no one could agree to it.

"No, the Jia family is shameless. They don't pay a penny and just want to take advantage!"

"I think we can't give it to their family. We can't let them take advantage of it."

"How shameless! He only wants to gain something for nothing."

"Ms. Jia Zhang, did you hear that? This is the voice of the masses. Even if I am the manager, I cannot go against the will of the masses." Liu Haizhong said.

Jia Zhang didn't get any advantage and could only return home in dismay. At this time, her body became more and more itchy, especially her back which she couldn't reach.

So she said to her two granddaughters, "Xiaodang, Huaihua, come here and help grandma scratch her back."

Xiao Dang said: "Grandma, my mom said she doesn't want us to have any contact with you because she's afraid of getting infected!"

"Your mother is talking nonsense. Grandma's disease is not contagious, otherwise you would have been infected long ago. Now that your mother is not here, you must listen to grandma and come here quickly." After saying this, Jia Zhang lay down on the kang.

Xiaodang and Huaihua walked over reluctantly, lifted Jia Zhang's clothes and started scratching. Jia Zhang immediately felt less itchy, and she closed her eyes and hummed in comfort.

Qin Huairu stopped twice along the way before she managed to send Banggeng to the hospital. After entering the hospital, she simply registered her information and then Banggeng was taken to the emergency room.

Qin Huairu also knew that Bang Geng was seriously injured this time and it would probably cost a lot of money. She touched a pocket sewn on the lining of her clothes and it seemed that her hard-earned money would be lost again.

Thinking of this, she squatted down helplessly, her back against the cold wall, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably. Why was her life so miserable? Ever since the death of that short-lived Jia Dongxu, she had never had a smooth life.

All day long it's either the mother-in-law causing trouble or Banggeng making trouble. The grandson and grandson are competing to go to the police station. Now no one in the whole hospital wants to pay attention to their family. Their reputation is so bad in Nanluoguxiang that even this time when they took Banggeng to the hospital, no one was willing to help.

Qin Huairu kept finding all kinds of faults in her grandparents and grandchildren, but she never mentioned the bad things she did. Perhaps in her eyes, all the things she did were for the sake of her children and the whole family, and she was forced to do them, and she made the choice out of helplessness.

Her actions further prove the selflessness and greatness of maternal love! She is the white lotus that grows out of the mud without being stained. Although it is rooted in the mud, it can still bloom the most beautiful and purest flowers.

Qin Huairu was daydreaming when she was interrupted by a voice.

"Is Jia Geng's family here? This is Jia Geng's payment notice. Please go and pay the fee." A young nurse in a white nurse uniform said, holding a note.

Qin Huairu had no choice but to stand up and said, "Comrade nurse, I am Jia Geng's mother. How is my son?"

"Your son's hand was hit by a firecracker. The hand bones are fine, but a lot of flesh was blown away, leaving only a small amount of flesh attached to the bones. New flesh will not grow in this case. Our hospital recommends amputation..."

Before the nurse could finish her words, Qin Huairu fell to the ground, his mind full of thoughts about amputation and how his son was going to become disabled.

"Mother Jia Geng, are you okay?" The young nurse quickly helped her up.

"It's okay. How's the injury on your leg?" Qin Huairu asked as she struggled to stand up and leaned against the wall with all her strength.

"The wound on my leg was caused by a dog bite. Although the bone was not broken, a large piece of flesh was torn off."

Qin Huairu's heart skipped a beat again. Would her leg have to be amputated again? Wouldn't that make her a cripple?

"But all you need to do is suture the wound. It will heal slowly, but it will have some impact on his walking. Also, since your son was bitten by a dog, he needs a rabies vaccine. Currently, the production of this vaccine is very low and the price is relatively expensive, about 20 yuan per dose. Do you think you should give your son the vaccine?"

"What would happen if I didn't get the injection?"

"Being bitten by an animal like a cat or dog, especially after bleeding, can easily lead to rabies. If you don't get vaccinated, it is very likely to cause rabies, and by then there will be no cure with the medical level in our country."

"Injection, I will definitely inject it." Qin Huairu said impatiently. After all, he was her own son, and it was not easy to raise him to this age. How could she bear to watch him die in front of her eyes?

The nurse took out a pen from her coat pocket and began to write on the payment notice. But she finished quickly and handed the notice to Qin Huairu.

"Take this and go to the first floor to pay the fee. I still have to help in the operating room." After saying this, the young nurse turned around and went back to the operating room.

Qin Huairu picked up the bill and read it. She didn't recognize some of the words, but she did recognize the last line of numbers. It said 128.63 yuan. Qin Huairu was stunned after just one look.
