Si Weihua was still awake and was wearing an oxygen mask.
Mu Ning looked at the dying old man on the hospital bed, feeling a touch of sadness and regret for the old man's old age.
The nurse knocked on the door and said, "Si Weihua's family members, please come and settle the bill!"
Si Qingyang looked troubled, "I've been a little nervous lately, can you wait a few more days?"
"How many more days do we have to wait? You have been in arrears for a year! If you don't pay up, I can only ask you to take him back!"
Si Qingyang was very embarrassed. He Cairong hurriedly pulled Si Qingyang and said: "Qingyang, dad has so many problems, the medicine cannot be stopped, and he has just been rescued. Let's take him home. If he dies, What to do at home?”
Si Qingyang shook her off and said, "Don't rush me. You should also think of a solution. Aren't you a member of this family?"
"What can I do? I'm not at work..."
A knock on the door interrupted their conversation.
The nurse stood at the door, "Have you discussed it clearly? Who will pay with me?"
Just when Si Qingyang and He Cairong were unable to do anything during the operation, Mu Ning stood up and said, "Me."
The Si family couple raised their heads and looked at each other.
Gu Zhiyin looked at her. He would not interfere in Ning Ning's family affairs until she spoke.
But when she opened her mouth to pay for Si Weihua's medical expenses, he would not just sit idly by.
"You sit down while I tie the knot."
Mu Ning took his hand and said, "Let's go together."
She's not being pretentious, she just doesn't want to stay here alone.
After the two of them went out, He Cairong hurriedly pulled Si Qingyang and whispered, "Husband, Ning Ning has married into a wealthy family, and she is doing really well! This man is so talented, and he even paid our father's medical bills! Qing Qing, that one If you don’t live up to expectations, it would be great if you could also catch us a golden turtle son-in-law..."
Si Qingyang gave her a look of disgust, "Please keep your voice down, this is Ning Ning's blessing, don't show such a face, it will make people laugh!"
"Aren't I happy and excited? Our family will become prosperous in the future!"
…
When I went to the toll office to pay, the fee list came out, totaling over 500,000 yuan.
so much? ?
It was indeed a bit beyond Mu Ning's expectations, and she looked at the list in disbelief.
Hospitalization fees, surgery fees, medical expenses...
Gu Zhiyin didn't think anything was wrong and just swiped the card.
But Mu Ning frowned and stopped him, "Wait a minute."
Gu Zhiyin turned his eyes, "What's wrong?"
She asked the nurse, "This heart bypass surgery was last year, and there are these medicine bills, and you haven't paid yet?"
"Where do they have the money to pay? When Si Weihua was hospitalized, debtors came to the hospital several times to make trouble. This couple owes a lot of debt, but they still have money to treat the old man?"
The nurse said, "If the couple hadn't knelt down and begged the hospital director, the hospital would have sued them long ago!"
Gu Zhiyin looked at Mu Ning, "Does Ning Ning think it's too much?"
Mu Ning frowned deeply, "No, it's not about money, it's just that I feel strange..."
Si Qingyang told her that she had to spend 10,000 to 20,000 yuan a month on medical expenses for her grandfather, which was why the family was so poor!
But judging from the medication bill, they never paid for it even once! I have been relying on the hospital's debt!
Mu Ning thinks there is something wrong with his speech!
"Hey, do you still want to pay the money?" the staff at the window urged.
Mu Ning's expression was not very good, and Gu Zhiyin could see her doubts, "We have something to discuss later. How about getting your grandpa settled first?"
Mu Ning nodded, she could only do this for the time being. Si Qingyang couldn't afford the money, so it was impossible to leave the old man here to fend for himself. For her, 500,000 yuan was just enough to buy a bag.
The main thing is... After thinking about this matter over and over again, I always feel that something is wrong.
After Gu Zhiyin paid the money, he transferred Grandpa Mu Ning to a high-end ward, a separate room, and hired a nurse for his grandfather.
Si Qingyang and He Cairong were extremely happy and praised Mu Ning for his filial piety.
Listening to their compliments, Mu Ning only felt flattered.
She said calmly, "Uncle, you said it was grandpa's illness that brought down this family. In order to treat grandpa's illness, the family resorted to selling everything."
"But since grandpa had surgery last year until now, you haven't paid any of the expenses."
She laughed coldly, "Since we didn't use the money to treat grandpa, where did the family's savings go?"
He Cairong was not happy when he heard this, "Ning Ning, what do you mean by this! Do you mean we kept it private?"
Mu Ning looked coldly, "Did I say this?"
He Cairong still wanted to say something, but Si Qingyang glared at her and explained to Mu Ning.
"Ning Ning, the year after your mother disappeared, your grandmother passed away. Relatives left one after another, which caused your grandfather to become seriously ill. He retired early to recuperate at home, and the family had no source of income."
Mu Ning looked coldly, "What about you? What are you doing?"
She almost blurted out the phrase "Are you growing old at home?"
Si Qingyang smiled bitterly, "I was cheated in business, lost all my money, and almost went to jail."
Mu Ning:......
She asked back, "So you are unemployed at home and rely on your grandfather's pension and pension to support your family of four?"
Si Qingyang hurriedly defended, "No, no! I quickly cheered up and looked for a job, but as soon as I found a job, your grandpa suddenly fell ill and the hospital issued a critical illness notice. We had no choice but to sell the house and treat him."
"Your aunt is uneducated and can't find a decent job, so I let her take care of the children at home. Qingqing is studying, and the tuition is a big expense. I can only work hard to make money."
"I fell down at a construction site last year and broke my bones. I was recovering at home for a long time and was unable to do heavy work..."
It means that the pillar of support has fallen, and the family has begun to be unable to untie the pot.
"Your grandpa's surgery can't be postponed, so we can only bite the bullet and perform the surgery on your grandpa. But since my accident last year until now, the family has been unable to make ends meet, so we can only owe the hospital money first."
Mu Ning was pondering Si Qingyang's words.
He Cairong quickly agreed, "We have been serving the old man with all our heart these years, and all the money we can spare has been used to treat his illness. Your uncle also said, this is our dad, as long as he can take a breath in this world, we will I will never give up on him!"
He Cairong's voice was loud, and Mu Ning had a headache from the noise, "Okay, I understand, keep quiet in the ward."
He Cairong had no choice but to shut up. She was actually feeling very uncomfortable. She felt that Mu Ning was arrogant and asked questions about money, but he didn't take them seriously. They were uncles and aunts after all, and Mu Ning didn't respect them at all.
But whoever makes Mu Ning pay is the father.
Grandpa hasn't woken up yet, so it's impossible to stand here. Mu Ning noticed that Gu Zhiyin's face was a little pale, so he walked over and held his hand, saying to Si Qingyang: "Let's leave first and come back when grandpa wakes up."
"Okay, I didn't expect that there would be an emergency today. I'm really sorry for not being able to entertain you well." Si Qingyang apologized again and again.
After Mu Ning and Gu Zhiyin left, the door of the ward was closed, and He Cairong rolled his eyes, "Why are you so proud? I just got a rich husband!"
Si Qingyang scolded her, "You stinky bitch doesn't have any brains except to care about things! Her husband's money is not hers? She also gave her father 500,000 yuan, what's wrong with letting her have some money? She just wants to be a pawn." Ancestor, I have to provide for her too!”
He Cairong snorted coldly, "I want Qingqing to find someone richer. When I become the mother of a wealthy lady, why should I look at her face?"
…
After coming out of the hospital, the driver took Mu Ning and Gu Zhiyin to the hotel.
In the presidential suite, Gu Zhiyin rested on the bedside after taking a shower, while Mu Ning sat cross-legged on the bed and massaged him, "It's really hard on you today. I asked you to accompany me to do all the work."
Gu Zhiyin was processing emails on his tablet and said "hmm" absently.
Mu Ning's soft little hands were kneading his legs, but she was thinking about being in the hospital, "What do you think... of my uncle and aunt?"
