Soul of the Siheyuan: Zhuzi, I can still give birth

"What, one hundred dollars!"

Jia Zhang glared and yelled, so loud that the whole corridor could hear it.

When Widow Bai saw Jia Zhang like this, she was also shocked, and then said weakly.

"Then...then give me 200 yuan, no more!"

After hearing this, Qin Huairu's eyes smiled into crescent shapes.

This White Widow is indeed from the country and has never seen the world.

After the old hag yelled at him, the price went up to two hundred yuan.

But two hundred yuan is already a lot.

It’s not that Qin Huairu is not greedy, but Widow Bai also said that it’s only two hundred yuan, not a penny more.

We finally caught these fat ducks and we can’t let them run away.

"We are all widows, and we are also a family. Let's not say such strange words. Two hundred is two hundred. I don't want a cent more."

Qin Huairu said cheerfully.

Widow Bai said to Qin Huairu and the others.

"Two widows, it has taken us half a day and we haven't eaten yet. We are not familiar with this place. I would like to ask you two to get us some food."

Qin Huairu was about to say that she would go, but was interrupted by Jia Zhang.

"Sister Bai, I'm going to buy some food. I'm very fast, so I wonder if you have any dietary restrictions."

Jia Zhang said to Widow Bai with a flattering look on her face.

The White Widow thought about it.

"We are all country folk. We just need to have enough food to eat. Why should we avoid certain foods? Let's put it this way. My two children are injured and need nutrition. Please buy some meat and some white flour buns. But you guys have to eat with us!"

Hearing this, Jia Zhang almost jumped for joy.

Can eat together.

Then you can just buy the expensive ones.

Jia Zhang pulled Qin Huairu aside and said.

"I want to give you half of the two hundred dollars. You can't get it back by yourself. It will be easier for you if I'm here."

Qin Huairu waved her hand directly.

"No way, twenty bucks at most! Without you, I would have gotten two hundred bucks all by myself."

Jia Zhang also shook her head and said.

"No, eighty bucks. At most, I'll have to run errands for you. I'll do it all."

Qin Huairu shook his head.

"Thirty dollars, and you have to pay for the shopping yourself, and then ask the White Widow to pay you back."

In this way, the two of them negotiated back and forth and lowered the price to fifty yuan.

Jia Zhang went out happily to buy food.

Qin Huairu was left here to accompany the White Widow.

The doctor's office hadn't been here for a long time, and this made the White Widow anxious.

"I've been in there for so long, why is there no news at all?"

The White Widow said worriedly.

Widow Qin comforted him.

"It's okay. Doesn't this just show that Doctor Sun is serious and responsible? It's okay. Your two sons are blessed by God. Nothing will happen to them."

After a while, Doctor Sun came out with a serious look on his face.

"Doctor Sun, please excuse me for a moment."

Qin Huairu whispered to Doctor Sun, then pulled Doctor Sun to a corner.

The two of them were whispering there, and I had no idea what they were saying.

The White Widow was standing aside, not daring to go over.

After a while, the two came back.

Doctor Sun said to Widow Bai.

"Qin Huairu also told me about your family's situation, but your son and his family were seriously injured."

"Please go into the office first. I'll show you the film first, and then I'll tell you what happens next."

Doctor Sun asked Widow Bai and the others to come in first. After they sat down, he took out some X-rays.

This is an X-ray. It shows several skeletons, but there seem to be some breaks on the skeletons.

Doctor Sun said to Widow Bai.

"I took the pictures first because of Qin Huairu's face. You guys go and pay the fees."

Widow Bai glanced at Widow Qin, and Widow Qin nodded.

"It's okay. You stay here and listen to what the doctor says. I'll go pay the bill."

Qin Huairu turned around and left the doctor's office to pay the bill.

Anyway, I can just ask the White Widow to settle the bill when the time comes. She has a full two thousand dollars.

"Did these two boys of yours offend someone? They were too cruel."

The White Widow asked worriedly.

"What's wrong, Doctor Sun? Is it serious? It's just a broken limb. Just connect it. Put on a splint. I saw that the barefoot doctors in our town all do it this way."

Widow Bai is not the country girl she claims to be. Although her family is not from Baoding city, they are from a town in the suburbs and she has seen the world, otherwise she would not have fooled He Daqing so much.

"If it's a common fracture, you would correct it first, then apply plaster and splints. After a few months, the bones will heal on their own, and your hands and feet will be fine."

"But... your two sons' injuries are different. See these small pieces? They are all bone fragments."

Doctor Sun pointed to the tiny shadows around the bones in the film and spoke seriously to Widow Bai.

The White Widow leaned over to take a closer look and indeed saw some tiny shadows.

"It's just some bone fragments. It won't cause any harm. Why are you so nervous?"

The White Widow didn't understand what serious consequences would result from leaving these bone fragments in the body, so she said nothing about it.

Doctor Sun sighed and continued to explain to her.

"If these bone fragments are not cleaned up in time, they may shift and if they compress the nervous system, their hands and feet may become paralyzed."

After listening to Dr. Sun's words, Widow Bai thought for a moment and then asked.

"What should we do?"

Doctor Sun smacked his lips and then spoke.

"The only way is to perform surgery to remove those bone fragments, and... our hospital cannot perform such an operation."

The White Widow thought for a moment and asked.

"Doctor Sun, I wonder if this kind of surgery is expensive. We are not from the Forbidden City, so this money...!"

Doctor Sun looked at the White Widow.

The clothes he was wearing weren't old and didn't have any patches on them, but at least they weren't new.

His hair is well-groomed and he looks like someone who knows how to dress well.

If you say you have no money...

"If you can transfer to Hexie Hospital and find the best orthopedic and neurological doctors in the country, there should be a 70% chance that your two children's hands and feet can be saved."

"But the cost is also very huge. Not only do we need to hire experts, but we also need to use very advanced medical equipment. Conservatively speaking, if two people want to fully recover, it will cost about 1,500 to 1,600 yuan."

When Dr. Sun said thousands of yuan, he smacked his lips.

It’s more than a thousand yuan. How many years will it take me to earn this amount?

"However, in the later stage, there are various medications for recuperation and daily nutrition, which is also a considerable expense."

Doctor Sun added another sentence, which made the already uneasy White Widow even more worried.

Sure enough, when the White Widow heard that it would cost fifteen or six hundred yuan, she could no longer remain calm.

I got a total of 2,000 yuan from the He family. Now the medical treatment for my two children costs 1,500 to 1,600 yuan. There will be many other places to spend money in the future. I feel uncomfortable.

"Doctor Sun, if I ask your hospital to perform this operation, can you do it?"

The White Widow wanted her two sons to recover.

The third child broke his leg while riding his bicycle half a year ago.

That was when He Daqing left, and the family didn't have much money saved, so they just found a Mongolian doctor (some barefoot doctors, meaning they were not very good at medicine and cheated people and money everywhere).

After giving his third son a casual treatment, the Mongolian doctor patted his chest and guaranteed that the third son's legs would definitely be able to walk.

But half a year later, the third child was able to walk again.

He was just limping, the third son of the Bai family became a cripple.

If the eldest and second sons also become crippled, what will happen to my family in the future?

Doctor Sun was in a dilemma.

"The medical facilities in our factory hospital are limited. Although we can perform surgery, the results are definitely not as good as in a large hospital."

"And we can't guarantee whether this operation will have any sequelae. After all, your two children are seriously injured!"

When White Widow heard that the surgery could be performed here, she quickly asked about what she was most concerned about, which was the price.

"How much does it cost to have surgery here?"

Doctor Sun thought for a moment and said.

"We do two surgeries like this here, and the total cost is at least 700 to 800 yuan. Add the subsequent drug costs, and it will be within a thousand yuan, which is still a considerable expense."

When she heard that the total amount of money they had was several hundred yuan, the White Widow felt relieved.

Even if they spend a total of one thousand, their family can still have half left, and they can buy a big yard in Sijiucheng and live in Sijiucheng from now on.

Use the remaining money to find wives for each of my three sons. Even if the operation is not so successful, as long as I have the money, why should I worry about not being able to find a wife?

"Okay, Dr. Sun, we have decided to do the surgery here. Please arrange the surgery as soon as possible!"

Doctor Sun originally wanted to persuade him again, but when he thought about the fact that this was a big deal worth more than a thousand yuan, if he let him go, the dean would nag him again.

So he made up his mind, nodded and said to the White Widow.

"Okay, I'll go tell the dean and ask him to arrange the surgery."

Qin Huairu came back just as Bai Guafu and the others left the office.

"Aunt Bai, how is it? What did Doctor Sun say?"

Qin Huairu asked in a low voice as she handed the payment slip to Widow Bai.

The White Widow did not take the bill.

"Doctor Sun, go tell the dean that you're going to arrange the surgery. You keep the receipt for now. When you're discharged, I'll file the bill with you."

Qin Huairu felt relieved when she heard what the White Widow said.

What if she accepts the bill now and doesn’t give me the money, but I don’t even have any evidence?

"Okay, I'll keep it for now. We can talk about the money later."

While the two were talking, Jia Zhang came back, looking cold, with a few lunch boxes in her hands.

"Oh, it's freezing cold, and many restaurants are closed. I walked a long way before I found one, so I cooked a few dishes and came back. Come and see, they all have meat. I spent half a pound of meat ticket, and I'm so sad."

Jia Zhang opened the lunch box while muttering to herself.

These four meat dishes cost her nearly half a pound of meat slices, and she also added more than one dollar in cash.

Widow Bai said to Jia Zhang with a smile.

"Sister Zhang, you are an open-minded person, don't worry, but I will give you more when I report the bill. Come and eat, I'm hungry."

The surgery is scheduled for tomorrow, which is the fastest arrangement the factory hospital can make.

Even the dean came to see the two sons of the White Widow in person. There was nothing he could do about it, as this was the God of Wealth.

It was Jia Zhang who went to buy dinner again. Widow Bai said that she could buy whatever was delicious and not to be stingy with the money, but she would settle the bill together.

Jia Zhang happily ran out to buy food again.

Qin Huairu went back to the courtyard. There were two children at home and no one had taken care of them the whole day.

Xiaodang and Huaihua were sitting at home, waiting for the adults to come back.

The stove in the house was out, and the house was as cold as outside. Two little girls were sitting on the bed with runny noses and cold hands and feet.

When they saw Qin Huairu coming back, the two children burst into tears.

Qin Huairu quickly lit the stove again, boiled a pot of water, and let the two children soak their feet in it to warm them up.

Hearing that the two children had not eaten for a day, Qin Huairu burst into tears and quickly went into the kitchen to knead the dough and cook a bowl of warm noodle soup for the two children.

It was very late when Jia Zhang returned to the courtyard, looking exhausted.

Qin Huairu had fallen asleep when she was woken up by the sound of a door opening.

When I got up, I saw that it was Jia Zhang who came back.

"How's it going? Is everything done over there?"

Qin Huairu asked.

Jia Zhang nodded.

"Everyone has gone to bed. I just came back. I'm going to have surgery tomorrow, so I'm sure we'll be very busy. I think we should go to the hospital early tomorrow to help out. If you want their money, you have to work hard."

Jia Zhang said very consciously.

Qin Huairu also nodded.

"Get up early tomorrow and take the child with you. I'm worried about leaving him at home."

Jia Zhang said impatiently.

"Okay, okay, if you want to take me with you, then take me with you. We're eating at the White Widow's house anyway, so we don't have to spend a penny. It's better to eat more."

In this way, the Jia family went out early and came back late every day to go to the hospital to help.

Widow Bai’s two sons underwent surgery on their legs and feet. As for whether it was successful or not, the hospital said it would not be a big problem and it would depend on the patient’s own recovery ability.

After half a month, the White Widow's two sons were basically able to walk.

Although he looked a little limping, he was able to walk after all.

That day, after Qin Huairu and the others had left and returned home, the two sons of the Bai Widow asked their mother in a low voice.

"Mom, we have spent a lot of money during this period, right? Mom has two thousand yuan, how much is left?"

The White Widow thought for a moment and said.

"You two's surgery cost a total of nearly 800 yuan, plus the subsequent expenses of hospitalization and dressing changes, the total cost is now more than 900 yuan. We still have more than 1,000 yuan left. What's wrong?"

The two sons were also curious after hearing this.

"That's not right. We've been eating meat every day. Widow Qin and her family also stew a chicken for us every day. This is a lot of money. How come there is still so much money left?"

The White Widow listened and smiled secretly.

"The food expenses during this period were all paid by the widow Qin and her friends. We didn't spend a penny. If you add it up, I'm afraid the food expenses during this period must have been several dozen yuan... hehe!"

Seeing that the White Widow could still laugh, her two sons were at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

"Mom, that's dozens of dollars. They must have asked us to give them some extra money. That's dozens of dollars!"

The White Widow heard this without any panic.

"If we want to compensate them, our family must be willing to give it. Anyway, you can walk again after your injuries. We will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow. If they want to claim the money, they have to find us!"

After hearing what their mother said, the two brothers smiled happily, and the three members of the family covered their mouths and laughed.
