After hanging up the phone, Su Huaren pulled back his hair in frustration and boredom. Originally, business was very good during the New Year. Taking advantage of the increase in taxi prices, their tricycle also increased by two yuan. They were still thinking about the New Year for ten or so days.
Earn more money and buy a set of beautiful clothes for Su Su. Don't think that something bad like "getting hit" will happen to you.
"Auntie will be here soon?"
"Um."
"Then do you want me to help you find Lao Hu in the market?"
"What are you looking for him for?"
"Your medical treatment, hospitalization, and examination cost more than a thousand yuan. Plus two months of lost work time, shouldn't he pay you some money?"
"Forget it, it's not easy for anyone. It's not serious for me. I just spend some money to check my health."
Su Huaren waits for work at the door of the market every day. Although he doesn't know Lao Hu, he sees the stall owners in the market getting up early and staying late every day, and it's not easy to yell at the sellers. Besides, no one with money can ride a motorcycle to deliver goods in the cold weather.
"You have to have a few thousand yuan? No more?" Shen Dapeng didn't expect that Su Huaren would consider others like this. He couldn't make money for two months and had to be hospitalized for examination. He calculated the accounts carefully inside and out. It was at least three or four thousand yuan.
The block is gone.
"No, no, don't let people think I'm blackmailing people because of this little money. Haha, besides, I have my own reasons for what happened today. I saw the motorcycle approaching from a distance, so I should have run away..."
Su Huaren lives a simple life. In his mind, being rich or poor is not the most important thing. When the three poor and the three rich live their lives, he and his wife can persevere even if they live in poverty. It only hurts their children. But the poor also have a bottom line and
Dignity lasts forever, and he doesn't want people to point at his spine and make irresponsible remarks behind his back.
"Uncle Su, I think... everyone should be responsible for what they do. If you do something right, you will enjoy praise, and if you do something wrong, you must take responsibility. If you don't go to him, he will think it doesn't matter."
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. By the way, when your aunt comes later, don't say that I was hit by someone. Otherwise, with her temper, she will definitely have to find Lao Hu. Do you understand?"
Su Huaren looked up and saw Shen Dapeng's troubled expression. He was stunned for a moment, and then smiled slightly, "You paid for the registration and X-ray just now, right? I don't have any extra money with me, so your aunt will give it to you when she comes.
"
"I'm not talking about money...hehe."
Shen Dapeng said half of the sentence, smiled bitterly and stopped explaining. Since Su Huaren didn't want to owe a favor, why should he ask for trouble? "Then do you want to go through the hospitalization procedures? Or ask the doctor first?"
"It's more convenient to go home if we don't need to be hospitalized. If we ask the doctor if we have a cold or fever, he'll have to admit us to the hospital."
Su Huaren didn't want to be hospitalized, not because he didn't trust the doctor, but because he wanted to save some money. Hospitalization cost more than 60 yuan a day, plus the various expenses, it would be more than 100 yuan a day. If he went home, he could get an intravenous drip at the small hospital next to his home.
A clinic is fine, and it's much cheaper than a hospital.
"good."
Shen Dapeng could see that Su Huaren was worried about money. As an outsider, he couldn't say much, so he had to go to an outside pharmacy to buy painkillers for Su Huaren and take them.
After waiting with him for more than ten minutes, Su Huaren's wife hurried over, accompanied by the equally anxious Su Su.
Mother Su rushed to Su Huaren angrily, "Old Su, how did you do this?"
"Dad, are you okay...?"
Mother Su was busy taking care of Su Huaren and did not notice Shen Dapeng.
But...Su Su noticed that the boy who was obviously thousands of miles away from him but never disappeared from her life, Shen Dapeng.
"Why are you here?" The expression on Su Su's face suddenly became solemn, and returned to normal after a moment.
"We happened to meet each other at the morning market." Shen Dapeng would feel a little embarrassed when facing Su Su. Even if he didn't think wrongly after several close contacts, the facts and results could not be changed after all.
"Lao Su, why did you end up in a wheelchair? Did you hurt your leg?"
"I hurt my knee. It's not serious. Just go home and rest."
After taking painkillers, Su Huaren no longer had the tearing pain, and his condition was much better. However, he had no strength to stand up and could only continue to sit in a wheelchair.
"It's okay, let's go home then?"
"Well, let's go home. By the way, you brought money with you, right? Just return the money Dapeng helped me advance."
"Dapeng, thank you for helping me advance the money. I'll give you how much it is..."
Su Su's mother touched her pocket, but it was empty. She patted her confused head hard and said, "Oh, I was in a hurry to get to the hospital and I forgot to bring money."
"Auntie, we don't have much money. You'd better take uncle home first, or ask the doctor to see if he needs a plaster or hospitalization."
Shen Dapeng is not a doctor, but he also knows that fractures are considered serious conditions. In his previous life, a colleague broke his arm while playing basketball and had to wear a cast for a month. Su Huaren's kneecap is a joint that moves frequently. Without a cast,
I don’t know if it will affect recovery or gain weight.
"A plaster? Dad, are you serious about it? Haven't you asked the doctor?"
Su Su squatted on the ground and looked at Su Huaren's torn outer trousers and cotton trousers. After opening them, she faced the swollen legs and touched them gently, "Did you hurt your knees?"
"Dad, it's okay. The road was slippery in the snow and I accidentally fell..."
"Uncle Su, I sent you here, and I will take responsibility, so I can't hide it."
Shen Dapeng interrupted Su Huaren's lie and handed the X-ray film to Su Su's mother, "Auntie, uncle has a slight fracture of his kneecap, but he doesn't want to see a doctor or be hospitalized."
"Broken bone? Isn't that just a fracture? It's so serious, why don't you see a doctor?" Before Su's mother could speak, Su Su couldn't help but push her wheelchair towards the surgical clinic.
"Daughter, don't worry. Dad is really fine. Just go home and rest. If we go to the doctor, he will definitely treat the condition as serious and then ask us to be hospitalized, get injections, and take medicine... If we listen
As for him, even if he doesn’t have thousands of dollars for such a trivial matter, he won’t be able to get out of the hospital.”
"You need to eat when you are hungry, and see a doctor when you are sick. This is the simplest principle. Besides, you are not sick now, but have injured bones. This is not a matter of money at all."
I don't know where the strength came from Su Su's thin body, but she didn't slow down her progress at all. "Dad, you must not even ignore your health just to save money. I don't agree with this kind of thing."
"Daughter, daughter..."
No matter how much Su Huaren objected, Su Su, under the guidance of Shen Dapeng, pushed him to the emergency room without any explanation, found the doctor who was treating him, and gently put the X-ray film on the table, "Hello, doctor, this is my dad.
Let’s take a look at the x-rays.”
"Wait a moment, there are two more patients." The doctor turned his head and glanced at Su Su and Su Huaren, without saying anything more.
