The big-eyed little brother returned to the orphanage, which meant that he was in good health. Leshan was really happy for him and smiled so much that his eyes turned into little crescents.
"Congratulations to my little brother for recovering and being discharged from the hospital. You will study hard in the future. Come on!"
"Yes." The beautiful little brother smiled with bright eyes. He was cute and well-behaved. Xu Xiake took the initiative to hold the hand of the beautiful little brother: "I will take you to visit. I am familiar with this place."
"Okay." Leshan had no objection.
The two children, one large and one small, were holding hands, with Li Zhao following behind as a professional umbrella holder. It felt like he was an attendant holding a canopy for the emperor.
At noon, many children had to take a lunch break, so it was not appropriate to make noises. Xu Xiake did not take his beautiful little brother indoors, but took him to visit outdoors first, visiting his children’s favorite places.
After acupuncture, Mr. Le Xiao went to a side door of the building to eat with the handsome guys. After leaving the building, on the way to the cafeteria, he heard his younger brother's voice, smelled the scent of a child in the shelter, and knew that the baby
Who is my brother with?
She walked over very calmly, without asking how her brother got along with the friends he knew.
Yan Xing also heard the conversation between Xiao Leshan and the child. The little Loli was not curious, so naturally he was not curious either, and he was determined not to pry into Xiao Leshan's privacy.
Classmate Le went to the cafeteria to eat, then made preparations, and started acupuncture at 1:30 in the afternoon.
A group of children who were cured in the reception center were discharged from the hospital and returned to the welfare home in the morning. Halfway through the afternoon, the deaf-mute children who attended the deaf-mute school also returned to the welfare home.
Ms. Zhang and the caregivers first talked with the deaf-mute children who had returned from school, and then allowed them to go back to the dormitory or move around freely. They were only asked to gather at a designated place in the evening.
Classmate Le finished acupuncture in the afternoon and went to see the deaf-mute children who came back from outside after dinner.
In addition to the deaf-mute children, that group of children also had several children with physical problems who were already in middle school in regular schools.
Deaf-mute children and half-grown children, twenty-three in total.
Classmate Le went to the clinic and made a treatment list. Fifteen children had hope of being cured or recovering some of their functions. Among the other children, except for one whose cornea was damaged and had to wait in line, the rest had no hope of recovery.
Little Loli made a treatment list and handed it over to the medical staff at the welfare home. She then went to do acupuncture on the children scheduled for treatment in the evening.
Xu Xiake took his beautiful little brother for a walk around some of the playgrounds outside the welfare home. After the lunch break, he took his little brother indoors to play.
The two children wandered around and played happily for a long time, and even went to the cafeteria to have dinner together in the evening.
There was nothing interesting to do in the evening, so Li Zhao took his junior brother back to the hotel first.
Student Dai slept very deeply. He didn't wake up until noon. When he got up, he found that it was already past eleven o'clock. He tidied himself up, went to the hotel restaurant to have a meal, and returned to the guest room to write notes frantically, recording the assistance he had received yesterday.
The process of little Loli's acupuncture and surgery is recorded, and some important and valuable knowledge such as the principles and causes of the disease are recorded.
He was busy for a long time, translating all the things he remembered into words. In the evening, he waited for the little Loli to come back for dinner, but there was no one there. After calling to ask, he found out that the little Loli also had acupuncture scheduled for the evening.
I won't come back until around twelve o'clock in the evening.
Classmate Dai did not go to the orphanage anymore. He filled his belly and stayed in the guest room to reflect on the surgery and study his notes.
He didn't wait for Little Loli to come back, so he went to bed at ten o'clock in the evening. He got up early the next morning, had breakfast with Little Loli, Yan Shuaiguo and others before going to the orphanage.
When they arrived at the orphanage again, classmate Dai did not follow him to the acupuncture room to observe. He worked as a volunteer in the orphanage and only waited for the little Loli to finish acupuncture and perform operations on the children before going to work as an assistant.
There are only over a hundred children in the reception center for critically ill children. Little Loli still stayed in the No. 1 Hospital for a week. There are more children with diseases in the welfare home. The treatment time is no longer than the time spent in the reception center, and it is impossible.
Less than a week.
Fortunately, the welfare home is under closed management and there are no outsiders coming and going. The little Loli treats children in the welfare home without fear of being leaked and attracting internet celebrity anchors.
Little Loli went to the welfare home to express her love on the 12th. That day was also the court hearing for Meng's wife and the construction site dispute case.
The appeal will be filed wherever the case occurs. The construction site contractor will sue in the municipal court where the construction site is located, and the local court will hear the case.
Granny Li didn't have any promising relatives in her family, her daughter didn't study law, and Mrs. Meng didn't know any legal knowledge herself, so she hired an attorney.
The lawyer had analyzed the case and knew that there was almost no chance of winning. He could only try his best to seek appropriate compensation based on the fact that Meng's wife was in the contract at the construction site and fell ill on the construction site.
The court opened as scheduled. The lawyer hired by the construction site contractor made a well-founded statement and the facts were clear. However, Meng's wife made a fake medical examination form and was not able to defend herself. The lawyer insisted that his agent did not know that she was seriously ill.
It was purely because she was a woman who had to support her family and couldn't bear to spend more money that she got a fake experience form. She got sick because she was overworked at the construction site and it was a work-related injury.
The contractor's lawyer also found evidence that Mrs. Meng had gone to the hospital for a check-up due to vomiting, which proved that she had health problems last year. She was unwilling to have a medical check-up and gave a false certificate, obviously to hide the truth about her physical discomfort.
Lawyers on both sides argued for a long time, but the court is all about evidence. It is a fact that Meng's wife made false evidence, and it is also a fact that she went to the hospital because she felt unwell. The suspicion of porcelain cannot be quibbled with.
After a heated argument, the contractor undoubtedly won the case.
The contractor won the case and held Meng's wife accountable according to law. The losing party also had to bear the legal fees. Because Meng's wife signed the contract and was considered an employee at the construction site, the contractor had to pay her medical expenses.
My sister-in-law still needs to pay the contractor 12,000 yuan.
After Mrs. Meng was diagnosed with gastric cancer, not only was there no employer willing to hire her, but even if there was an employer willing to hire her, her body could not bear it. She had no source of income and had to take anti-cancer drugs every day, so the money could only go out.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Under the double blow of body and spirit, she was like straw in the storm, weak and haggard.
Losing the lawsuit and having to pay out money was just adding insult to injury for Mrs. Meng. Her energy was greatly reduced and she became even more depressed.
She also knew that even if she wanted to appeal again, she would not be able to win the case, so she obeyed the judgment on the spot and paid the compensation clearly in court.
After the lawsuit was over, Mrs. Meng paid off the lawyer's fees and stayed one night in Changshi. Then she packed her luggage and dragged her frail body back to her hometown of Jiudao.
The people of Jiudao didn't know about Meng's wife being brought to court at first, but later they heard about it. In a short period of time, many villages in Jiudao Township knew the gossip.
When Mrs. Meng returned to the small village, she met someone who recognized her on the road. She originally wanted to ask her how the lawsuit was going, but seeing her frail look, she was afraid that she would be angry because of what he said and something would happen to her.
On top of that, I didn’t try to add insult to injury.
However, passers-by did not ask. As soon as Mrs. Meng returned to the small village, the people in the small village had no scruples and ran to watch the excitement.
Everyone came to see the excitement at her home. Grandma Li was so angry that she could hardly hold it in. After all, there was no man in her family, so she had to ask her fellow villagers for help with some things. Not to mention, Mrs. Meng was now terminally ill.
When the day comes, you have to find people from the same village to carry the funeral to send you home.
Besides, Xiaoyan was still young and studying abroad. One day, Meng's wife went away and she was an old woman at home. After all, she had to count on her neighbors to take care of her.
Grandma Li, who swallowed her anger, couldn't help but often think of the days after Xiaomeng married Zhou Xialong. Because Xiaomeng was the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family and was known as the Lejia girl's brother and aunt, who in the village would not support her?
During that time, not only the people from the small village took her to Jiudao Street, they knew she was Xiao Meng’s ex-mother-in-law. Who wouldn’t say she was lucky? There was no need to negotiate the price when buying something, the stall owner automatically paid the purchase price.
Count money.
At first, she was also frightened. She was praised so much and the life of being held up was so nourishing that she took it for granted.
Unfortunately, those wonderful benefits all ended with the divorce of Xiao Meng and Zhou Xialong.
If Xiaomeng had not married Zhou Xialong, the family would have lived the most miserable life without feeling bitter. After a period of life that everyone envied, they would suddenly be back to the starting point, and then they would understand what a huge difference is.
Granny Li was often criticized because her granddaughter got into trouble and offended the girl from the Le family. Now that Xiaomeng is terminally ill and has been accused of fraud and blackmail, she can no longer hold her head high in the small village.
Sister Meng was diagnosed with advanced gastric cancer. The early cancer cells had not spread and the lesions or part of the stomach could still be removed. However, when the advanced cancer cells had spread and there were lesions in the stomach and intestines, surgery to remove the lesions was no longer suitable.
To put it bluntly, there is no cure. You can only take some drugs that can inhibit the spread of cancer cells to a certain extent or relieve some pain.
She could only eat some easily digestible food, and she also had to eat light food. Spicy, sour, and sweet foods were taboo, and even meat had to be stewed until it was soft and tender before she could eat it, otherwise her stomach would not be able to digest it at all.
Even if I take oral medication every day, I still can't completely suppress the pain. Sometimes the pain is so painful that I can't sleep or do heavy work. I can't even lift a twenty-pound bucket of water. I can only do some cooking and picking vegetables.
of light work.
After losing the lawsuit, Mrs. Meng was under great mental stress and could not eat or sleep well. Her mental energy and vitality were gradually weakening, and she became even more frail.
In the past, when her daughter-in-law made money to support the family, Granny Li still enjoyed happiness even if she had to work hard. Now, her daughter-in-law is very sick and cannot make any money, so she can only live in vain. She is also worried that she cannot eat well and cannot sleep.
She was worried that Xiaomeng would run out of money for medical treatment, and what would happen to Xiaoyan's studies?
If Xiaomeng dies of illness without taking medicine or spending money, what will she and Xiaoyan do?
Granny Li was unhappy, and sometimes she couldn't help but think of driving Xiao Meng away, but in the end she took no action. If she really drove Xiao Meng away, others would definitely scold her for being unkind and ungrateful, and scolding her for crossing the river and burning the bridge.
It's okay to scold her anyway. She is old anyway and won't live for a few more years. She is afraid of affecting the future of her only granddaughter. What if Xiaoyan finds a boyfriend or a good job in the future and someone knows about her family's affairs?
, felt that her family tradition was not good, and disliked Xiaoyan.
It was not easy to get rid of her seriously ill daughter-in-law, so Granny Li had a lot of idle energy in her heart and nowhere to vent it. She was not devoted to her daughter-in-law and did not care about what she could and could not eat. She continued to cook as before.
Grandma Li was afraid that it would affect her granddaughter's studies, so she didn't tell her that Meng's sister-in-law had stomach cancer. Meng's sister-in-law was also afraid of affecting her daughter's grades, so she didn't tell her that she was terminally ill or that she was going to file a lawsuit.
Li Xiaoyan's school had mid-term final exams, and the summer vacation officially started on the 15th. She did not go to work during the summer vacation, but went home during the holiday. She returned to Fang County on the 15th. Because she missed the bus back to Jiudao, she stayed in the county for one night.
Take the earliest bus No. 16 back to Jiudao.
The 16th is the fair day in Jiudao. People from all villages go to Xiangjie to go to the market. In some villages, there are people who drive tractors or plows to Xiangjie, and they can pick up people going to the market along the way.
Li Xiaoyan returned to Jiudao Township and everyone dispersed. Fortunately, she caught a tractor going back to the small village and hitched a ride.
The tractor owner didn't know if Li Xiaoyan knew about her family's situation, and he didn't ask Li Xiaoyan how college was going. Looking at Li Xiaoyan's glamorous appearance, he guessed that she was doing well in college.
No one in Li Xiaoyan's university in another province knew who she was, and no one exposed her. She had a monthly living allowance of RMB 1,800, and she was considered to be in the upper middle class among her classmates. Her mother also gave her extra money for socializing or buying things.
money for supplies.
In addition to the daily necessary expenses, she has enough money to buy clothes every month and uses one or two hundred lipsticks. She is not as good as her classmates who spend thousands on cosmetics, but at least she is better than her classmates who spend dozens of dollars a month pretending to rob her.
, she is not as good as the inferior, but at least more than the inferior.
There was no one in college who knew her well. Li Xiaoyan was doing well in school. When she went home during the summer vacation, she wanted to let her mother know that she was a filial daughter, so that her mother would have something to look forward to so that she could be more motivated to make money.
After returning to the small village, Li Xiaoyan got off the tractor and happily returned to her home. When she ran to the door, she suddenly saw a thin and old woman holding her stomach and retching. She thought that some neighbor came to her house to bring bad luck to others.
.
Before she could say anything, the woman holding her stomach and retching heard the footsteps, raised her head, and that face suddenly came into view.
"Mom?" Li Xiaoyan shouted in disbelief when she saw a familiar face but a skinny woman.
"Xiaoyan is back." Seeing her daughter, Mrs. Meng's thin face lit up with joy, and her gloomy eyes became a little brighter.
The skinny woman turned out to be her mother. Li Xiaoyan was greatly frightened and screamed: "Mom, why did you become such a ghost?"
When Mrs. Meng saw her daughter's frightened look, she felt as if she had been struck by thousands of needles, and felt pain both physically and mentally.
Grandma Li heard her granddaughter's voice in the kitchen and ran out the door in a hurry. She was filled with joy when she saw her granddaughter who had become even more beautiful. She also saw Xiaomeng holding on to the wall under the eaves outside the gate, and she opened her mouth and said:
"Xiaoyan, your mother has cancer, don't be afraid, your mother just lost a little weight, it's not an infectious disease."
Cancer? A string in Li Xiaoyan’s brain broke. Her mother got cancer? Her mother died of the disease. Who made the money to send her to college?
