448. I don’t want to, people are gone, money is gone too
Although the little girl always has a sweet smile on her face, only she knows how bitter she is in her heart.
When things first started, there was still some heat due to the incident.
Those Internet celebrities are also willing to come over for photo shoots and promotions.
Although it can work, it is really a drop in the bucket.
However, if someone can help, there is always hope and hope.
However, this hope did not last long.
In just a few days, those Internet celebrities who joined in the fun disappeared.
And because these people don’t have much traffic, the effect they bring is minimal.
These dozen Internet celebrities also helped appeal for donations.
But the total donations raised at that time were only 3,521 yuan.
Although this amount of money is indeed a huge sum of money in the eyes of the little girl.
But for the sky-high treatment cost of 800,000 yuan, it seems a bit too little.
Thinking of the inconsistent faces of the previous Internet celebrities, the original smile on the little girl's face slowly disappeared.
It’s not like there haven’t been internet celebrity anchors who have offered to help with donations before.
But after discovering that the amount was huge and the profit was not much, he immediately changed his face and completely forgot everything he had said before.
So, the little girl named Xiaojuan timidly asked:
"Brother, the cost of my mother's treatment is 800,000 yuan. Can you really help?"
Seeing the little girl frightened like a wounded little animal, Li Xiao felt even more distressed.
He nodded and said with a smile:
"Don't worry, although 800,000 is a bit much, it's nothing to me."
"However, all this must be done under the condition that your mother really needs treatment."
The little girl ordered like a chicken pecking at rice:
"It's true, it's absolutely true. My mother is in the People's Hospital of Guilin right now. I also have her check-up reports here."
As she spoke, her calloused hands pulled Li Xiao to the cashier counter.
She took out a stack of inspection reports from the counter.
Li Xiao didn't hesitate, took the report from the other party and started flipping through it.
It's not that he doesn't believe the other party, but this is a donation of 800,000 yuan, not 80 yuan.
A little caution is still needed.
He moved quickly and flipped through several pages of the report. Although he couldn't understand the pictures and descriptions, he could still understand the doctor's summary.
After only watching for a minute, a middle-aged man with a pale face and a frown came to Li Xiao.
This person was Fu Xiangrong, who had undergone surgery just a few years ago.
Fu Ji Guilin Rice Noodles is not a big restaurant, so he quickly knew what was happening in the back kitchen.
He has seen a lot of storms, so he knows exactly what a huge sum of money 800,000 is.
Although he felt that the tall and handsome man in front of him was very pleasing to the eye, he was dressed very elegantly, and the equipment he was holding looked expensive.
However, he didn't think that a stranger would help him for no reason.
And it was such a big help, you know, after my wife fell ill.
He borrowed money from relatives and friends, but only got a total of 100,000 yuan.
After all, everyone knows that Fu Xiangrong suffered a serious illness just a few years ago.
Families that were not considered wealthy to begin with have been almost wiped out.
Now my wife is also sick, and the two strong workers in the family are almost useless.
The two children at home are young and there are elderly people who need to be taken care of.
Lending money to such a family is equivalent to throwing money into the water, and it is almost impossible to get it back.
Fu Xiangrong also understood, so he was very grateful to those relatives and friends who lent him money.
For those who don't borrow money, there is no complaint at all, because not everyone is willing to throw money into the water.
Therefore, there was no excitement on his face, but suspicion.
Seeing her father coming out of the kitchen, Xiaojuan pulled his clothes excitedly.
"Dad, my brother said he is willing to help with mother's treatment."
Li Xiao turned his head and looked at the man next to him.
The other party's face was pale, the dark circles under his eyes were very obvious, and the sadness on his face could hardly be concealed.
Seeing Li Xiao looking at him, the man forced a smile. He glanced at the camera and said straight to the point.
"Hello, sir, my wife's surgery is not a minor one."
"Although I have sold the house and borrowed some money from friends and relatives, it is only 450,000."
"The cost of my wife's treatment is a full 800,000 yuan, which is a shortfall of 350,000 yuan."
After hearing more detailed content from the other party's mouth, the slight hesitation in Li Xiao's heart immediately disappeared.
Many families whose families are seriously ill have cars and houses at home, but are reluctant to sell them.
Just cry out for poverty and ask for help.
It is obvious that by selling the garage, one can easily cure the disease.
But they have to pretend to be poor and go to various help platforms to defraud money from various kind-hearted people.
If you can sell your house to treat your illness, you are indeed at the end of your rope.
However, as the saying goes, there is no way out but there is no way out.
I kept persisting and finally waited for Li Xiao.
So, the meal ended before it even started.
Amid the cheers of the diners, Li Xiao followed the man and the little girl to Guilin People's Hospital.
A haggard-looking woman was receiving infusion in an eight-person ward.
Li Xiao had good eyesight. As soon as he walked to the door of the ward, he saw the words written next to the patient's bed: Ma Sihong, uterine cancer in the middle and late stages, on a liquid diet.
The woman who originally looked numb was overjoyed when she saw her husband and daughter.
Then, the joy on his face instantly faded.
His face, which was already very pale, became even paler.
Because although she was in a daze due to illness, she still remembered that this was the busiest time in the store.
However, the person who loves me the most and the person I love the most are here together.
A thought that had appeared thousands of times appeared in her mind.
His condition must have worsened, so the doctor called his family over to see him for the last time.
Thinking of this, the woman's sunken eyes turned red, and tears flowed down unsatisfactorily.
She stretched out her left hand, which was skinny and tormented by illness, and took hold of her man.
"Xiang Rong, I know you tried your best. 800,000 is too much. It's not worth saving me."
"Besides, I also know that there is no way we can borrow so much money."
"Don't force it. I know my own situation and it can't be saved."
"Don't save me. By then the people will be gone and the money will be gone too."
"You are not in good health, and Xiaojuan is still young."
"I don't want me to be gone and this family to be gone too."
"Shall we go home? The store has two days of rest. You and Xiaojuan can stay with me at home."
The family members of the patients in the beds nearby heard the woman's words and couldn't help but lose a bit of their original speaking voices.
After all, there are patients who live in this eight-bed room together.
They are all cancer patients. When they see someone giving up treatment, a feeling of empathy immediately comes to their hearts.
