Chapter 170: Drive away
After hearing what happened to Wenjie, Wu Xiangdong immediately recalled the scene when he had bargained with him over the ten yuan accommodation fee when he first met him.
At that time, he said that he wanted to earn money to treat his sister. At that time, Wu Xiangdong thought that he was just looking for a reason to gain sympathy. However, after getting to know each other in the past few days, Wu Xiangdong realized that he had wrongly blamed Wenjie.
"Don't just stand there. Where is your sister now? Take me there."
Wu Xiangdong had already changed his clothes and urged Wenjie to lead the way. If it was really a heart problem as he said, then Wendi's condition would definitely not be optimistic.
"Okay, Brother Dong, I'll take you there right now." Seeing Wu Xiangdong agree to save his sister, Wenjie's dim eyes suddenly became brighter.
He patted the dirty clothes on his body and immediately led Wu Xiangdong out of the Tongzi Building.
They passed through the Glory Market and walked a few hundred meters to the entrance of an unprepossessing alley.
On one side of the wall is the shantytown where Wenjie and his friends live, and on the other side are several five-story high-rise buildings made of reinforced concrete.
Since the floors at that time were generally low, the rows of tall buildings gave people a very spectacular feeling.
"Go through here."
Wenjie took Wu Xiangdong into the alley, and the latter discovered that in the alley connecting the two places, there was a big hole in the wall that was cut by someone, which was just enough for people to pass.
"Is your sister treating illnesses here?" Wu Xiangdong frowned and looked at the hollow not far away. Even the red bricks in the wall could be clearly seen.
"Yes, there is a clinic here that can provide oxygen. Every time my sister feels uncomfortable, I will take her here for treatment." Wenjie looked guilty, but he still answered Wu Xiangdong's question honestly.
"Okay, let's go over and take a look at the situation." Wu Xiangdong didn't say any more, but followed Wenjie through the alley and came to this side.
Sure enough, when Wu Xiangdong came in, he saw a big sign hanging on the first floor not far away.
"Renxin Clinic?"
Wu Xiangdong raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at the four big characters on the sign, and couldn't help but shake his head. He is a kind-hearted doctor, and he thought that the owner of this clinic really knew how to name it, but he didn't know whether the doctors inside were worthy of this sign.
…
At the same time, an old man's anxious voice suddenly came from the clinic.
"Our child hasn't finished treatment yet, how can you drive him out?"
In the clinic, a gray-haired old man stood in front of the hospital bed angrily. She looked to be sixty or seventy years old. Although she was over sixty years old and had gray hair on her temples, she was full of energy. At this time, facing a group of young and strong young men,
He still faced them full of energy and did not lose the slightest bit.
At this time, lying on the hospital bed taking oxygen was a little girl of four or five years old. She was chubby and very cute, with a pair of big innocent eyes on her porcelain doll-like face.
But her face, which should have been pink and tender, was replaced by bruises, as if she had undergone the coldest test under the freezing winter.
At this time, she was a little afraid of the people in front of her, and huddled on the hospital bed, helpless and desperate.
At an originally innocent age, he suffered from undue pain and suffering at an early age.
This scene was very distressing to watch, and the clinic staff were helpless when faced with the old man's questioning. They looked at each other, standing there very embarrassed.
After all, everyone comes to the clinic for internship just to acquire a skill and not to accomplish anything.
But when they thought of the death order given by the clinic boss, they had no choice. After all, the working environment here was several times better than the construction site outside under the scorching sun.
"Grandma, don't make things difficult for us. We are all just living together for a living. If you don't leave, when the boss comes back later, we may be the ones leaving."
An older clinic staff member looked embarrassed and was in a dilemma. Facing the old, weak, sick and disabled in front of him, he could only persuade them with kind words, hoping to get them to leave as soon as possible.
But when the old man saw the child's purple complexion, she suddenly felt distressed. Of course she understood the difficulties of the staff, so her attitude was not as tough as before, and she could only look at them with pleading eyes.
"Okay, okay, she's really uncomfortable holding it in this time. Let her breathe a little more oxygen."
"We really can't wait until her brother comes back. We'll pay you the extra cost at the previous price."
As he spoke, the old man took out a canvas wallet from her waist and took out several dark gray ten-yuan notes from it.
The staff looked at the crumpled money in the old man's hand and sighed: "This is not a matter of cost. Children in this situation should go to the hospital, not a small clinic like ours."
Seeing that they still insisted on letting the child go, the old man was a little anxious: "I know, but you all know her situation. Our hospital can't solve the heart problem now, so we can only go to big cities to find better hospitals."
"But with the child's current condition, she won't be able to survive until that time. I can't just watch her suffer like this all the time."
The staff member looked at the begging old man and felt very entangled in his heart. He even scolded the boss and his whole family in his heart.
As the old man said, they had a general understanding of the girl's situation. After all, the child came here to receive oxygen therapy every now and then, and would greet them politely every time.
Cute and innocent children like this are naturally lovable, but this time the boss is determined to let them go.
After all, the whole clinic only has this one bed, and there is usually an endless stream of people seeing doctors. Residents in residential buildings do not want to queue up at the hospital for common cold and diarrhea problems, so they prefer to come to such a small clinic for treatment.
However, the girl's appearance directly occupied the bed, forcing many patients who could only stay in bed to receive treatment to go to the hospital as a last resort.
Maybe you can't notice anything once or twice, but over time, the profits of the clinic run by the boss have plummeted. You must know that he opened the clinic to make money, not to do charity activities, so he issued a death order to let people
The clinic staff made sure to remove the girl today.
"The boss is such a bastard. He hides and doesn't care about it, but leaves us with such immoral things to do. What a bastard."
He was scolded, but for the sake of his own job, he still bit the bullet and issued an eviction order: "No matter what, you should not come here anymore. We can't see or cure the child's disease, so you should hire someone else."
Bar."
Having said this, the old man still refused to give up. She looked up at the staff and tried to make a last-ditch effort, but wherever she looked, they either turned a blind eye or looked at her coldly. In the face of this kind of battle,
, the isolated old man was finally defeated.
