It was really leukemia! Ma Xiaoyao's heart became heavy. He knew that leukemia was a terminal disease and basically incurable.
"It's all my fault..." Lin Yue'e cried: "A few days ago, Rongrong often had nosebleeds, and I never took it to heart... If I had brought Rongrong to the hospital for examination earlier, Rongrong wouldn't be... comatose.
I'm not awake..." Lin Yue'e blamed herself very much. Since last month, Zhu Rongrong had nosebleeds every now and then. Lin Yue'e didn't take it too seriously at that time, which led to Zhu Rongrong's condition worsening and she eventually fell into a coma.
At this time, two doctors walked towards me, one with gray hair and the other young.
"Are you Zhu Rongrong's family members?" the gray-haired doctor asked.
"Yes, I am Zhu Rongrong's father." Zhu Shilong said hurriedly: "Doctor, how is my daughter?"
The gray-haired doctor shook his head: "The situation is not optimistic... Your daughter had leukemia a long time ago, and now the cancer cells have spread... You should be mentally prepared..."
"Doctor, are you saying that my daughter...is hopeless?" Zhu Shilong asked in a trembling voice.
The gray-haired doctor nodded slightly.
Lin Yue'e swayed and almost fainted. Lin Yue'e shook her dizzy head, bent her knees, and knelt directly on the ground. She cried with tears: "Doctor, I beg you, please save my daughter, I beg you."
Please..." As she spoke, Lin Yue'e began to kowtow to the gray-haired doctor, kowtowing very hard, and within a moment, a trace of blood appeared on her forehead.
"What are you doing? Get up!" The gray-haired doctor was startled and hurriedly reached out to pull Lin Yuee.
Lin Yuee knelt on the ground and refused to get up, pleading with the gray-haired doctor.
"Alas..." The gray-haired doctor sighed: "It's useless to beg me... Your daughter has a terminal disease, and I can't cure it at all... Otherwise, you can transfer the patient to the city hospital.
, the treatment conditions of the city hospital are many times better than those of the county hospital.”
"City hospital?" Lin Yuee was stunned: "Can the city hospital save my daughter?"
"You get up first," the gray-haired doctor said.
Lin Yuee climbed up from the ground tremblingly.
"You should understand that leukemia is a terminal disease that cannot be cured based on current medical conditions..." the gray-haired doctor said.
"Since it can't be cured, what's the use of transferring to the city hospital!" Zhu Shilong's face looked a little ugly.
Lin Yue'e bent her knees and wanted to kneel down again.
The gray-haired doctor hurriedly supported Lin Yuee: "Don't get excited...Listen to me. Although the current medical conditions cannot cure leukemia, they can suppress the spread of cancer cells and allow patients to live longer. This is me
The reason why I asked you to send your daughter to the city hospital is that the city hospital has a complete range of drugs, which is enough to allow your daughter to live for a longer period of time..."
"God...why are you so cruel? Rongrong is just an eight-year-old child..." Lin Yuee burst into tears.
Zhu Shilong had a sullen face and clenched his fists tightly.
Ma Xiaoyao also frowned.
"What do you think? Should I be transferred to the city hospital? Or should I continue to stay here?" the gray-haired doctor asked.
"Go to the city hospital!" Zhu Shilong said without thinking.
The gray-haired doctor nodded: "Okay, I will contact the city hospital immediately to arrange the transfer. However, I want to remind you that going to the city hospital to treat leukemia will cost a lot of money. What you have to do now is to raise money quickly.
"
"How much does it cost?" Zhu Shilong asked.
"This... will cost at least hundreds of thousands. It depends on the progression of the disease. The more serious the disease is, the more money it will cost." The gray-haired doctor said.
"A hundred thousand?" Zhu Shilong frowned tightly.
"What? Are you having trouble?" the gray-haired doctor asked.
"No...I will raise money. Please arrange for my daughter to be transferred to another hospital now." Zhu Shilong said hurriedly.
"Okay, I'll contact the city hospital right away." After saying that, the gray-haired doctor and another young doctor turned and left.
Zhu Shilong took out a cigarette from his pocket and put it in his mouth, then picked up a lighter and started to light the cigarette. For some reason, the lighter could not light up.
"Let me use it." Ma Xiaoyao took out a lighter, pressed it lightly, and a wisp of flame came out.
"Thank you." Zhu Shilong thanked him, lowered his head and lit the cigarette.
Ma Xiaoyao put away the lighter and glanced at Zhu Shilong who turned pale: "Are you short of money?"
Zhu Shilong nodded: "My monthly salary is just that much... Now my family has almost no savings..."
Ma Xiaoyao reached into his pocket and took out a bank card: "There are tens of thousands of dollars in this, which I have saved over the years. You can use it first." After saying that, Ma Xiaoyao stuffed the bank card into Zhu Shilong.
in hands.
Zhu Shilong was stunned for a moment, then returned the bank card to Ma Xiaoyao: "I can't ask for your money."
"Who said I gave it to you? I lent it to you, and you have to pay it back later." Ma Xiaoyao once again put the bank card into Zhu Shilong's hand: "Okay, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. If anything happens,
If you encounter any difficulties, just call me." After saying that, Ma Xiaoyao turned around and strode away.
Looking at Ma Xiaoyao's leaving figure, Zhu Shilong looked very complicated.
…
After Ma Xiaoyao returned to Gaohe Township, he held a meeting. All township cadres except Zhu Shilong attended the meeting.
Ma Xiaoyao had only one purpose in holding the meeting, which was to call on cadres in the township to donate money to treat Zhu Shilong's daughter.
Township officials expressed their willingness to donate.
Later, when some villagers heard about this incident, they also went to the party committee and township government to donate money.
As the saying goes, there is strength in numbers, and within three days, donations amounted to hundreds of thousands.
After collecting the donations, Ma Xiaoyao immediately sent someone to deliver them to Zhu Shilong.
After Zhu Shilong received the donation, he was moved to tears.
…
Half a month passed in a flash.
Zhu Shilong knocked on the door of Ma Xiaoyao's office with a tired look.
"Deputy Mayor Zhu? Why are you back? How is your daughter?" Ma Xiaoyao came out from behind the desk, invited Zhu Shilong to sit on the sofa, and then made Zhu Shilong a cup of tea with his own hands.
"Rongrong's condition has stabilized. Now my wife stays in the hospital to take care of Rongrong. I came back to work today." At this point, Zhu Shilong paused and then said: "Secretary Ma, thank you, if you hadn't lent me
I gave her money, and then helped me raise donations. I didn’t have any money to treat Rongrong... Secretary Ma, thank you from the bottom of my heart."
Ma Xiaoyao waved his hand: "You're welcome, we are colleagues, I should help you."
Zhu Shilong hesitated for a moment: "Secretary Ma, didn't you ask me last time... why I was so cold towards you..."
Ma Xiaoyao looked up at Zhu Shilong.
"Because I know the truth, I feel resentful towards you." Zhu Shilong exhaled softly.
Ma Xiaoyao was stunned for a moment: "The truth? What truth?"
Zhu Shilong took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it and took a puff: "Headmaster Wu has told me everything."
"What happened? I don't understand." Ma Xiaoyao became more and more confused as he listened.
"Secretary Ma, after Ding Dahu's car accident, you promised me to help me become the township head. Do you still remember this?" Zhu Shilong asked.
Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "Of course I remember, what's the matter?"
"Secretary Ma, now? Do you still want to hide it from me?" Zhu Shilong sounded dissatisfied.
"What are you hiding? What have I hidden from you? Why am I getting more and more confused the more I listen to it." Ma Xiaoyao said with a frown.
Zhu Shilong curled his lips: "Head Wu said that at that time you had no intention of letting me be the head of the township. Instead, you recommended Mr. Wu to the county leaders. In the end, the county leaders accepted your proposal and transferred Mr. Wu to Gaohe Township.
."
After listening to Zhu Shilong's words, Ma Xiaoyao's face suddenly darkened: "Is this really what Mayor Wu told you?"
Zhu Shilong nodded: "Yes, Secretary Ma, to be honest, after I knew the truth at that time, I was very resentful towards you. You don't have to help me become the township head, but you can't deceive me either?"
"Bullshit truth!" Ma Xiaoyao cursed and looked up at Zhu Shilong: "Do you really believe what Wu Ziyou said?" At this moment, Ma Xiaoyao felt a little pain in his heart. He did not expect that Wu Ziyou would slander him. Why? Ma Xiaoyao
But he has always regarded Wu Ziyou as a good friend! Ma Xiaoyao was very sad when his friend betrayed him.
"Why don't you believe it..." Before Zhu Shilong could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Ma Xiaoyao.
"I tell you, everything Wu Ziyou said was a lie." Ma Xiaoyao said word for word: "I have never lied to you. I did help you win the seat of the township head. But later, for some unknown reason, the county removed Wu Ziyou.
Transferred to Gaohe Township... Deputy Township Chief Zhu, you have known me for a long time. You should know very well what kind of person I am. Do you think I can do such a despicable thing? "
Zhu Shilong was silent.
Ma Xiaoyao stopped talking and just looked at Zhu Shilong quietly.
quite a while.
Zhu Shilong breathed out softly: "Secretary Ma... I'm sorry... I was too angry at the time and didn't think about it carefully... Now I calm down and think about it carefully, what Wu Ziyou said is indeed full of loopholes... Secretary Ma, I'm sorry, I misunderstood
You are here." Zhu Shilong finally understood.
"Just clear up the misunderstanding. Don't worry, Deputy Township Chief Zhu. I will definitely do what I promise you." Ma Xiaoyao smiled and said, "Sooner or later I will make you the township chief."
After chatting for a few words, Zhu Shilong stood up and left the office.
After Zhu Shilong left, Ma Xiaoyao's face suddenly darkened. He reached out and took out his cell phone to call Wu Ziyou: "Ziyou, are you free tonight? Let's have a meal together... Okay, see you in the evening."
…
night.
In a private room of a hotel.
Ma Xiaoyao and Wu Ziyou sat around the dining table eating food and drinking wine.
"Ziyou, are we friends?" Ma Xiaoyao suddenly asked.
"Of course." Wu Ziyou said with a smile. It was really leukemia! Ma Xiaoyao's heart became heavy, but he knew that leukemia is a terminal disease and basically cannot be cured.
"It's all my fault..." Lin Yue'e cried: "A few days ago, Rongrong often had nosebleeds, and I never took it to heart... If I had brought Rongrong to the hospital for examination earlier, Rongrong wouldn't be... comatose.
