Barbara thought for a while: "If Ms. Tong can insist on coming to the hospital for regular physical examinations within two years, I believe she will not suddenly develop any mental illness. But if, I mean just in case, she will be in three years or If she really has any mental distress or pain after five years, she can come to Greencastle Nursing Home at any time, and we will be fully responsible for her. Can you accept such conditions?"
"Can you explain specifically what you mean by 'solely responsible'?"
"We can provide the hospital's medical equipment and doctor resources to help Ms. Tong confirm her condition as early as possible and formulate a treatment plan that is known and feasible at that time."
Dong Qiangqiang remembered that the lawyer had just said that all agreements reached would be written into the agreement, and he said loudly: "If this is the case, then I have no problem with this. But I want to ask her opinion."
Barbara nodded in agreement.
In fact, there is no need for Dong Qiangqiang to translate. Tong Lele is now in a much better state than he was more than an hour ago, and he can gradually focus more. She listened to Barbara's suggestions intermittently, and the other person's words really made her feel more at ease. After all, the hardware and software of the nursing home were all there. She immediately nodded to Dong Qiangqiang and said softly: "This is good. I am willing."
Tong Lele's response completely dispelled Dong Qiangqiang's concerns. This shows that Tong Lele's logic is clear, which means that her brain should be fine.
Thinking of this, Dong Qiangqiang suddenly felt that the burden on his shoulders was much lighter.
"Then we all accept this," he said to Barbara.
"Second point, since you two are doing paid volunteer work here, we can provide you with certain compensation according to the relevant system of the nursing home."
"Wait, what did you say?" Dong Qiangqiang asked in confusion, "We are doing paid volunteers? Aren't all volunteers free?"
"You may not know the situation of volunteers in Germany. Our volunteers are generally divided into unpaid volunteers and paid volunteers. According to the requirements in the notice you brought, the nursing home has arranged for you to be paid volunteers. But although there is money , but after all, there are more public welfare elements, so the remuneration must not be the same as standard work benefits."
Ever since he got the court notice, Dong Qiangqiang had not read it carefully. He originally thought that he, Tong Lele and Lei Lanting would work as free labor for the Germans for a week. He never thought that he could get any money, and his eyes suddenly Yiliang: "How much will it cost that day?"
"Both of you work four hours a day. According to regulations, it should be a total of 80 marks per person after tax."
Dong Qiangqiang thought to himself: If this volunteer price is calculated as an hourly wage, it is still 20 marks per hour, which is more than what he earns working the night shift in the logistics factory. If this is the normal hourly wage, I don’t know how much it would be.
"How much is the compensation?" he asked curiously.
"It will be treated as a work-related injury, and each person will receive twice the daily salary." Barbara explained, "That is, each person will receive an additional 160 marks."
Dong Qiangqiang's first impression was four words: a drop in the bucket.
It's clear that there is no sincerity at all.
Before Dong Qiangqiang could express his disagreement, Tong Lele reached out and gently tugged on the corner of his clothes. He glanced back at Tong Lele, who indicated that she had no objection to the amount.
Dong Qiangqiang saw that Tong Lele just wanted to go home and rest as soon as possible and had no idea about compensation.
He patted her hand gently, then turned to look at Barbara: "I don't know how it was described in the medical examination report, but Tong Lele's experience was different from mine. She was much more seriously injured than me. Even if she doesn't You should also be able to see the bruises on her neck at this moment with any instrument. I think only twice the compensation is not enough for Tong Lele, she should also deserve more (compensation). She is a woman like you , if it were you who was attacked hard by the opponent without any defense, do you think the compensation of 160 marks is reasonable?"
Barbara shook her head in embarrassment: "The compensation amount I just mentioned is the best we can do. If you think this is not enough, there is no other way for the nursing home."
Tong Lele worriedly tugged at Dong Qiangqiang again, signaling him not to insist. She was worried that in the end she would not even have the annual physical examination.
"Ms. Barbara, I ask you to take a serious look at the girl opposite you." Dong Qiangqiang suddenly stood up and took a step forward. His move startled Barbara behind the table.
"She is a good student with excellent academic performance. She passed many tests before crossing the ocean to come to your country. She hopes to further improve herself and realize her ideals here. But now all this may be because of One of your patients here has all come to naught. She may be about the same age as your child. If your child encounters this kind of thing while studying overseas, do you hope that the other party will handle it in the same way? We have a saying in China, The child of my child and the child of a person means that people should care for other people's children as much as they care for their own children. I am not asking you for alms now, I just hope that she can get fair compensation. That's it."
Barbara looked at Tong Lele, who was in a daze on the sofa, and studied it carefully for a few minutes. Dong Qiangqiang's words suddenly reminded her of her daughter who was studying in the United States.
After a few seconds of silence, Barbara suddenly said: "It is impossible for the nursing home to make any more compensation, but I am personally willing to sponsor Ms. Tong Lele with 1,000 marks to express my and the nursing home's apologies for her unfortunate experience today. But I can only give She is alone. At the same time, I hope that after you accept the apology from the nursing home and me personally, you will not tell anyone or any organization what happened today."
Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Dong Qiangqiang didn't want to cause trouble. He turned to look at Tong Lele, who nodded in agreement, saying that he had no objection.
"Okay." Dong Qiangqiang clapped his chin, "That's it."
"We will deal with the agreement now and we can get it done within an hour." Barbara extended her hand apologetically, "I'm sorry that this happened to you and Ms. Tong. On behalf of the Greencastle Nursing Home, I would like to apologize to you again."
While the other party was drafting the agreement, Dong Qiangqiang took the time to call Lei Lanting back. During their conversation, Lei Lanting called him several more times, but he didn't answer the phone. He had a hunch that Lei Lanting might have something to do with him.
"Hello? Why didn't you come to the nursing home today?" Dong Qiangqiang asked angrily, "The notice said in black and white that we should come to the nursing home today. Didn't we mention this during dinner yesterday? Why didn't you come?"
"Well, it's a nursing home. It's not a big deal if you go there one day early or one day late," Lei Lanting said nonchalantly, "I'll go there on the weekend. I'll be busy with other things these two days."
"Other things?" Dong Qiangqiang felt confused. What could be more important than this now? If the court learns that Lei Lanting failed to report on time, there is no guarantee that a simple matter will not be complicated again. "If you have anything to say later, come and report first. Things here are simple, just cleaning." Dong Qiangqiang added.
"Well, old Dong, do you still remember what I said yesterday?" Lei Lanting suddenly started to hesitate.
"What happened yesterday? Which one?" Dong Qiangqiang was confused by his confused question, "We talked about a lot of topics yesterday, which one are you asking about?"
"It's just... I'm responsible for helping Luke... with that matter." Lei Lanting became nervous.
