"That's enough. I still have some money from my previous business, and I've saved it all."
Li Ke sighed and stayed with her in the garden for a while.
When she returned to the ward, Dong's mother had already woken up and seemed to be in good spirits.
"It's hard for you to worry about coming to see me. Xiaoxiao hasn't eaten well recently. Please take her to eat something delicious. Auntie has money here." Mother Dong said and was about to take it from under the pillow.
money.
Li Ke quickly took her hand and said, "Auntie, auntie, we brought money, why do we have the nerve to let you take money for a meal? Do you have anything you want to eat? We will pack it up and bring it back to you when we come back.
"
Mother Dong shook her head and smiled softly, "I don't, I just eat in the hospital canteen. It's very good. It's clean, hygienic and nutritious. If you are not in a hurry, take Xiaoxiao to buy a skirt after dinner.
.
My Xiaoxiao has loved beauty since she was a child, but this spring is almost over and summer is about to begin, and she hasn’t even bought a new skirt yet.”
Dong's mother's tone was calm and calm, unhurried, not at all like a cancer patient who was due for a third surgery.
On the other hand, Dong Chunxiao burst into tears again, "Mom, I don't like wearing skirts anymore, and I don't want to eat delicious food. I'm not going anywhere, I'll just stay with you."
"Chunxiao, come with us, don't let Auntie worry." Li Ke pulled her out of the ward.
Li Ke and Dong Chunxiao walked side by side in front, followed by Chen Xingyi.
Three people came to a stir-fry restaurant and ordered a few signature dishes.
"Chunxiao, you need to have good physical strength to take care of patients. You have to eat and drink well. Otherwise, who will take care of your aunt if you fall down? In addition to good health, you also need to maintain a good mental state and a stable mood.
You break down and cry every now and then. Auntie is so worried when she sees you.
In addition to worry, she must also feel guilty and feel that she has dragged you down."
Dong Chunxiao nodded, "I know, I will eat well."
As soon as the food arrived, Dong Chunxiao ate the food without any persuasion from Li Ke or Chen Xing.
"Eat slowly and drink some soup first." Li Ke filled a bowl of fish soup and put it in her hand.
After dinner, I went to buy some daily necessities.
Li Ke remembered Dong's mother's instructions and took Dong Chunxiao to buy a new skirt.
Dong Chunxiao was absent-minded throughout the whole process, so Li Ke had no choice but to help her pick a long skirt in a hurry.
"Is there anything else I want to buy?" Li Ke was worried about leaving something behind.
"No, no, no, let's go back quickly. I'm worried that my mother will be alone in the ward." Dong Chunxiao sounded anxious.
The three of them hurried back to the ward. When they returned, a strange woman sat in front of the hospital bed, feeding Dong's mother.
"Sister-in-law, why are you here again?" Dong Chunxiao looked surprised.
Sister-in-law Dong wiped the soup from the corner of her mother-in-law's mouth, and then turned around, "Not only am I here, but your brother and your father are also here. We have been feeling very uncomfortable these past two days.
Your brother couldn't sleep all night, and our father was not in the mood to kill pigs. He sat on his front teeth and smoked cigarettes every day.
We have agreed that as long as there is still a glimmer of hope, we will treat it.
The most important thing for a family is to be neat and tidy."
Dong Chunxiao, who had just adjusted his mentality, cried again, "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have spoken so harshly that day, and I shouldn't have lost my temper at you."
"We are all a family, how can my sister-in-law care about this with you? You have been guarding me these past few days, and I must be exhausted. You should go and have a rest first. My sister-in-law is guarding our mother.
Your brother and our dad went to rent a house and will be back soon.
The two of them took one look at our mother and wanted to go back.
Your brother has to go to work, our dad has to sell meat, and they both have to go back to make money.
From now on, we will have to switch shifts to take care of our mother."
Seeing that the family and Meimei had reached an agreement after careful discussion, Li Ke breathed a sigh of relief.
When an elderly person in the family is seriously ill and the chances of recovery are low, it is really a dilemma to choose whether to treat the disease or not.
If you bite the bullet and treat it, you may lose both your life and money. If you don't treat it, you may regret it for the rest of your life.
Just like Dong Chunxiao's family, they first chose not to receive treatment, then regretted it and chose treatment again.
It is really difficult to explain clearly the complexity and subtleties of human nature.
"Chunxiao, come out for a moment. I'll say a few words to you and then leave."
Dong Chunxiao followed Li Ke out.
"Didn't you want to do clothing before? Auntie still needs money for a lot of things after the operation. It just so happens that my clothing store is on the right track. I am considering opening a second store. I want to leave the second store to you."
"I..." Dong Chunxiao was about to say that he had no time to get away, but was interrupted by Li Ke.
"As for the time, it's up to you. When Auntie is discharged from the hospital and recovers and no longer needs anyone's care, you can come back."
"Thank you, thank you, I will always remember your kindness." Dong Chunxiao burst into tears again.
"What's wrong with kindness? I just want to kidnap you and squeeze out your labor power. Do you know that I used to think you were quite strong? Why are you so blind today? You can tell me yourself. I've only been here for a long time. Look.
How many times have you cried?"
Dong Chunxiao wiped away his tears and smiled, "I know, I won't cry anymore. I'm so touched. I can't help it. Who would have thought that the profiteer Boss Li still has a benevolent heart."
After hearing this, Li Ke was so angry that he slapped her arm, "Hey Dong Chunxiao, who do you think is a profiteer?"
The two of them were chatting and making trouble, and Dong Chunxiao felt that all the depression in his heart was gone, and he felt much more relaxed.
Before leaving, Li Ke took out the envelope he had prepared in advance and stuffed it into Dong Chunxiao's hand.
Dong Chunxiao felt the thickness of the envelope and rejected it repeatedly.
Finally, Li Ke said, "Okay, manager Dong, this is the salary advanced to you, take it." Dong Chunxiao accepted it.
After coming out of the hospital, Li Ke felt very complicated.
"When we are healthy, we always have the illusion that life is endless. After a trip to the hospital, I realized that life is impermanent. Chen Xingyi, you said that if a person has a terminal illness, should it be treated or not?"
Chen Xingyi also felt deeply, "If you have money, let's get treatment. Of course, the patient's own wishes must also be considered. Some treatments are too painful, and it is better to be relieved than to die."
"You are right, then let's work hard to make money, so that we can have more choices when facing such things."
I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but I always feel that the hospital is eerie. Maybe it’s because I have witnessed too many life and death farewells, and staying in the hospital makes people feel very depressed.
"You're right, so, should we go to Third Brother's unit next, or go to his house and wait for him?"
Li Ke looked at the time and saw that it was still early to get off work, "Why don't you go to his work?"
