Xie Hao didn't have the key, so he walked to the door and rang the doorbell while chatting with Dong Xuebin. Then the door lock clicked, and Xie Huilan's figure appeared behind the door. She was dressed in a black suit, with her hair tied up, and high heels.
After disappearing, Dong Xuebin felt that she seemed to be more beautiful again. The stunning face made Dong Xuebin's heart beat a few times, and his eyes involuntarily glanced around Xie Huilan's slender figure.
Xie Huilan smiled slightly and said, "Coming?"
"Huilan." Dong Xuebin temporarily changed the title. After all, he is his boyfriend in name. It would be a bit awkward to call him Sister Xie in front of Xie Huilan's family.
"Come in, my mother is upstairs and we will come down immediately." Xie Huilan let Dong Xuebin enter the house.
Stepping in, Dong Xuebin looked around cautiously, "Um, Secretary Xie isn't here?"
Xie Huilan said calmly, "I'm having a meeting at the municipal committee, and I may not be able to come back at night. Xiaohao, I'll give you Brother Dong a cup of tea."
"Hey!" Xie Hao went to get the electric kettle.
After sitting down on the sofa, Xie Huilan looked at him with a smile and said, "Don't be so formal, okay?"
Dong Xuebin nodded, tried his best to relax, and whispered: "Sister Xie, what should I say later?"
Xie Huilan looked at him and smiled, "What should I say? You don't have to think about it so much. Haha, did you miss me?"
"Ahem." Dong Xuebin didn't expect her to say such a thing out of the blue, and his old face turned red, "I thought about it." This is actually the truth.
Xie Huilan gently held his hand, "Haha, how much do you want? Why didn't I see it?"
"Uh, I really want to."
"……Yeah?"
"Um!"
Xie Huilan seemed to be very satisfied with this answer and nodded with a smile.
Dong Xuebin really couldn't understand Xie Huilan's thoughts. He didn't know if she really regarded him as her boyfriend or if she just wanted him to help her block the road. To say that she only used herself as a shield, but now Xie Huilan's mother is not here either.
Why did she say such ambiguous words to herself and make such an intimate gesture of holding hands? But if she thought she was her boyfriend, why did she always maintain such a strong tone in her tone? I couldn't sense that she wanted to be with her.
Do you have the idea of further developing yourself? Sister Xie, sister Xie, what exactly do you mean, can you give me a quick word?
After waiting for a long time, Xie's mother still didn't come out.
Xie Huilan frowned, gracefully held up the teacup and took a sip of water.
Dong Xuebin knew in his heart that Xie's mother might not agree with the matter between him and Sister Xie, so she was leaving him alone.
About five minutes later, Xie Huilan's mother, Han Jing, slowly walked down from the second floor. She was a middle-aged woman who looked somewhat similar to Xie Huilan. She was wearing a long skirt and her temperament was very similar to Sister Xie's, but the look between her eyebrows was more different than Xie Huilan's.
Soft, not as sharp and powerful as Sister Xie's smile.
Xie Hao, who was watching the game, put down the remote control and said, "Auntie."
Dong Xuebin hurriedly put down his teacup and stood up, "Auntie."
Xie Huilan smiled and said, "He is Dong Xuebin."
Han Jing smiled slightly, nodded her head, and said to Dong Xuebin: "Sit down and chat. You saved my daughter's life. I have always wanted to thank you in person."
Dong Xuebin smiled and said: "Auntie, you're welcome."
"Are you still adaptable to the grassroots working environment?" Han Jing looked at him and asked.
"It's good that Aunt Lao is thinking about you."
After chatting for a few common words, the atmosphere on the surface seemed very good. However, Dong Xuebin naturally knew that this was a superficial phenomenon. Han Jing seemed to be very enthusiastic about herself, but from her eyes, Dong Xuebin did not catch the slightest bit of enthusiasm.
, on the contrary, there is a feeling of scrutiny and rejection.
Dong Xuebin guessed well. Han Jing was indeed not satisfied with her daughter's boyfriend. With Wei Nan's fiancé in front, Dong Xuebin could not compare with him regardless of appearance or family background, and the gap was huge. Han Jing
I feel that this Xiao Dong is really not worthy of his daughter, who lives in heaven and on earth. However, Dong Xuebin saved his daughter's life after all. Han Jing was grateful and did not show his dissatisfaction on his face.
Xie Hao didn't see Han Jing's true thoughts, he chuckled and said: "Auntie, you don't know how powerful my brother-in-law is, just talk about the time he saved my sister, hey, it was amazing, that day..." He
Another brother-in-law called out.
Han Jing's smile faded, "Don't scream."
Xie Hao said disapprovingly: "It's a matter of time."
Han Jing had nothing to do with this nephew and did not reprimand him, knowing that Xiao Hao only listened to Xie Huilan's words.
Dong Xuebin was so embarrassed that he changed the subject and said: "By the way, Auntie, I brought you something, just a little bit of gratitude." He grabbed a paper bag from the side and handed it over respectfully, "I wish you the best.
Good health and long life.”
Han Jing glanced at Xie Huilan and thought to herself, this is the son-in-law's door-to-door gift? Huilan really recognized this Xiao Dong? Han Jing frowned, "Xiao Dong, I accept the favor, you can take the things back." Han Jing returned.
Since she didn't agree with their relationship, she naturally had no intention of accepting this obscure gift.
Dong Xuebin said: "Auntie, a little gift, this..."
Han Jing waved her hand, no.
Xie Hao said carelessly: "Auntie, I, Brother Dong, am not an outsider. Is there anything I can't accept from this gift? Let me see what it is." Xie Hao knew why the elder sister specially called him here today, just to adjust the atmosphere.
Without saying a word, he took out a box from the bag, and then he was stunned, "Wild ginseng?"
Xie Huilan was also slightly startled and said with a smile: "You are really good at giving."
Dong Xuebin blinked, not understanding what it meant.
Xie Huilan explained: "My mother is getting older and her body bones have not been in good condition. The doctor suggested taking more wild ginseng to condition her body. It is best to use wild ginseng that is over 30 years old. However, most of the ginseng sold outside is artificially cultivated.
There are some wild and aged high-quality products that are rarely sold. Most of them are ten years old, and the medicinal effect is a little worse. Haha, I have searched many places in Beijing these days and can't buy it. Whoever wants it can give it to you.
Brought it."
Xie Hao said: "Brother Dong, how old is this?"
Dong Xuebin said: "Fifty years."
Han Jing's eyelids twitched. Fifty years ago? Then this box is worth 100,000, right?
Xie Huilan knew that Dong Xuebin was rich, so there was no surprise.
Han Jing was a little moved, but still said: "It's too expensive."
Xie Hao said with a playful smile: "Auntie, Brother Dong is almost your son-in-law, why should he be so expensive?"
Xie Huilan smiled and said, "Yeah, don't be polite to Xiaodong. That time we went to Liulichang to visit the temple fair. Xiaodong bought a small bowl in front of me. I thought it was a fake, but I went to Rongbaozhai to sell it.
, the other party’s offer is hundreds of thousands, and he is richer than me now.”
Dong Xuebin handed the wild ginseng forward and said, "Auntie, just accept it."
Han Jing hesitated. The fifty-year-old wild ginseng was so rare that you couldn't buy it even if you had money, and she really needed it. In the end, Han Jing finally nodded and accepted it, "Xiao Dong, you are serious."
Her impression of Dong Xuebin suddenly improved. Not everyone can give away hundreds of thousands of things casually.
Ring ring ring. The phone in the living room rang.
Han Jing walked up and picked up the phone gracefully. After speaking for a few times, she hung up the line and turned to Xie Huilan and said, "Your dad has a meeting in the evening and may not come back for dinner. Let's not wait for him." After that, she looked at Dong.
Xue Bin said: "Xiao Dong, stay for dinner tonight and try auntie's cooking."
Dong Xuebin said politely: "No, no, I'll go back and eat."
Han Jing smiled and said: "Haha, do you think Auntie's craftsmanship is poor?"
"No, I'm just afraid it will be too disturbing."
"Don't bother." Han Jing looked at her watch and said, "I'm going to cook while you young people chat."
Xie Huilan stood up together with a smile, "I'll go too and give you a hand."
Han Jing looked at her daughter and said, "Hey, the sun is coming out in the west today?" After saying that, she took the lead and walked to the kitchen.
Xie Huilan followed, and as soon as she entered the kitchen, she smiled and said, "What's your impression of Xiao Dong?"
"What do you think?" Han Jing glanced at her, reached out and took out some vegetables from the refrigerator, and washed them in front of the faucet, "I really don't know what you think, just because Xiao Dong saved your life.
, you want to repay him? Tell the truth, you two are not a good match, your appearance is not a good match, your age is not a good match, and your personality is not a good match. Huilan, please tell mom the truth. Are you really planning to talk to Xiao Dong about a partner? "
Xie Huilan squinted at her, "What do you think?"
Han Jing sighed, "I still have to discuss this with your dad."
Xie Huilan said yes and said nothing.
"By the way, you bought the wild ginseng, right?"
Xie Huilan narrowed her eyes and smiled, "Unfortunately, no, I don't know where Xiaodong got it."
"Oh." Han Jing said lightly, "This kid is quite thoughtful."
"Not only has the heart, but also the ability."
While eating, Xie Huilan said: "Mom, are you going to the hospital for a review tomorrow? The Information Bureau has a meeting in the morning, and I'm afraid I won't be able to spare time." After saying that, she turned to Dong Xuebin and smiled, "Xiao Dong, you stay with me in the morning.
Mother, please go there." The wife of the municipal party committee secretary wants to see a doctor, and no one can accompany her. Dong Xuebin understands that Sister Xie wants to get closer to her mother.
Dong Xuebin immediately said: "Okay, then I will pick up my aunt in the morning."
Han Jing smiled and said, "No, your dad asked Xiao Shen to come with me." Xiao Shen seemed to be Secretary Xie's secretary.
Xie Huilan said: "There are more people who know Secretary Shen than there are people who know you. Let Xiao Shen go, and it will definitely be a big fanfare. He will also say hello to the hospital in advance, and a bunch of people will come down to pick you up. Haha, you
If you go there, it's not just to see a doctor, it's to be inspected by the leadership."
Han Jing also wanted to keep a low profile. When she heard this, it made sense, "Don't even ask me if Xiao Dong is okay."
Dong Xuebin said to himself that if he had something to do, he would have nothing to do. Compared with your things, my trivial things are nothing, so he immediately said that he would be free tomorrow.
Han Jing hummed, "I'll trouble you then."
"You must be polite, you should."
Xie Huilan asked: "Don't drive your friend's Mercedes Benz tomorrow. Keep a low profile."
Dong Xuebin was afraid that the Buick would hinder Mrs. Han's identity, so he said: "Well, I came back in a Buick for business. Is this car okay?"
Xie Huilan joked: "As long as it's not a bicycle, your Buick is a bus, right? What's the license plate number? I'll get you a pass for the Standing Committee Compound soon, so you don't have to call the guard every time you come."
Han Jing looked at her daughter but said nothing.
Damn, pass? Is this a good thing? Dong Xuebin immediately reported his car number.
The next morning.
Dong Xuebin drove a Buick Business into the Standing Committee Courtyard of Xishan Villa. Sure enough, the guard glanced at the pass behind the windshield and immediately let him go. Only Han Jing and a nanny-like person were at home in Villa No. 1.
After picking up Han Jing, Dong Xuebin drove to the 305 Hospital, driving carefully all the way, for fear of braking or accelerating too hard, which would make Mrs. Han unhappy.
305 is a military hospital, but general patients are also admitted.
After getting out of the car, Dong Xuebin immediately opened the door for Mrs. Han and helped her out.
"Thank you." Han Jing smiled and said, "Let's go to the east building to find Vice President Qin."
Dong Xuebin knew that it was impossible for Han Jing to come to see a doctor and register. That was funny. She should have gone directly to the vice-dean for treatment. He was the real expert. Dong Xuebin guessed right. Ordinary people can usually get the best results.
The number is the director number. A person like Vice President Qin, who is well-known in the industry, will only visit people with special status like Mrs. Han to make medical visits or perform surgeries in person.
vice headmaster's office.
Han Jing chuckled and said, "Dean Qin, I'm here to bother you again."
Vice President Qin obviously didn't get the news. When he saw Han Jing coming, he quickly put down what he was doing and stood up, "Mrs. Han, why are you here in person? If you want to see a doctor, just give me a call. I'll take it with you."
The equipment is over." This is not a polite statement. The old president and Vice President Qin of 305 Hospital were both promoted by Mr. Xie. The Xie family, who are serious people, naturally have a different attitude towards Mrs. Han. This is also
The reason why Han Jing came here to see a doctor.
Han Jing waved her hand, "It's too troublesome, I just came to check again."
Vice President Qin looked at Dong Xuebin, "This is..."
"He is Xiao Dong." Han Jing pondered for a second, "I am a junior."
"Dean Qin." Dong Xuebin called. Vice President Qin understood immediately. If Secretary Xie had called someone to accompany Mrs. Han to see a doctor, Mrs. Han would definitely not have introduced her like this. Xiao Dong and the Xie family
The relationship was definitely unusual, so I smiled politely at him.
Han Jing said: "Xiao Dong, it is estimated that several examinations and tests will take an hour or two. You can go downstairs and wait for me."
"Okay, I'll wait in the lobby on the first floor. If you need anything, call me." Dong Xuebin naturally would not be stupid and accompany Han Jing for the examination from beginning to end. It was not convenient for him to be present when a woman was doing the examination.
Lobby.
Almost the entire floor was packed with people registering to get medicine, and there was no place to even put their feet down. The chairs in the rest area over there were also densely packed with people, and there were no seats. Helpless, Dong Xuebin found a place to go.
When I arrived at the entrance of the hospital, I sat on the steps and lit a cigarette. The current medical situation in Beijing is like this. Community outpatient departments and some small hospitals are basically empty, but what about tertiary hospitals? Almost every one of them is overcrowded. One time, my mother got sick in her eyes.
, Dong Xuebin went to Tongren Hospital to queue up at around five o'clock in the morning, but he still couldn't get the expert number. When he asked the first few people who got the expert number, they were waiting in line at three o'clock in the morning! Tongren Hospital didn't have it yet.
It's too exaggerated. For example, at Fuwai Hospital, if you want to get a specialist number to check your heart, you have to queue up the night before!
The same goes for 305 hospitals. In departments such as cardiovascular and cerebrovascular departments, ordinary people can’t even get the title of chief expert.
"Hey, Director Dong?"
When Dong Xuebin heard someone calling his name, he was stunned for a moment and looked back, "Director Liang?"
Standing behind him were Liang Chengpeng, director of the Yantai County Public Security Bureau, and his wife, "Why are you here?"
Dong Xuebin quickly put out his cigarette, "I'm here to accompany someone to see a doctor. What are you doing?"
Liang Chengpeng's expression looked very tired and depressed, and he sighed and said: "I also accompanied the old lady to see a doctor. Last night, my mother suddenly said that her heart was not feeling well. She went to the county people's hospital for a check-up and found that myocardial enzymes exceeded the standard. I hurriedly did an angiogram.
, I was diagnosed with myocardial infarction at that time, but the location of the blockage happened to be at the intersection of the two blood vessels. Interventional surgery was very difficult and could be life-threatening if not performed properly. Our county’s medical level is limited and we dare not do it, nor do we have any.
I was too sure of success, so I rushed to the capital overnight."
"Myocardial infarction?" Dong Xuebin groaned, "Then how are you doing now?"
Director Liang's wife sighed: "I heard that the cardiovascular interventional surgery at 305 Hospital is very good, so we came here, but who knew that they wouldn't dare to do it for old ladies here? Firstly, it's because of their age, and secondly, it's because of the location of the blockage.
Easy to deal with.”
Dong Xuebin frowned and said: "Then we have to do it as soon as possible, right? Myocardial infarction is a life-threatening condition, so there is no time to delay."
Director Liang said lovingly: "That's not true, but the doctor said that the chance of success is not very high. There is at least a 60% chance... let us be mentally prepared." After saying that, her eyes were a little red, and the old lady said
She is very kind to people and has always had a good relationship with her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Dong Xuebin asked, "So now..."
Liang Chengpeng rubbed his face irritably, "The old lady is in the intensive care unit. I haven't decided whether to do it yet."
Director Liang said lovingly: "Old Liang said he wanted to be transferred to another hospital, but... the old lady's heart is so painful that she doesn't even know if she can survive today. If she is transferred to another hospital for another check-up, I'm afraid..."
Liang Chengpeng didn't bother talking to Dong Xuebin anymore. He took out his mobile phone and called a few friends in Beijing to ask if there were any hospitals with a higher success rate, but the answers he got were that 305's interventional surgery was very authoritative.
, if it is said here that the chance of success of the operation is low, it must be the same in other hospitals. The only way is to find an authoritative expert from the hospital to personally conduct the operation. However, Liang Chengpeng is only the director of the County Public Security Bureau and has not yet joined the Standing Committee. With politics like the capital city,
The center is obviously not even a fart, so the hospital cannot treat him specially, not to mention that this is a military hospital.
Ring ring ring, Director Liang’s lover’s cell phone rang.
As soon as she answered the phone, her face turned pale and she lost her voice: "Old Liang! Come upstairs quickly! The old lady is dying!"
Liang Chengpeng was stunned and hurriedly ran upstairs with his wife! Dong Xuebin also followed suit!
The old lady has been pushed into the operating room and her condition is very dangerous.
The doctor in a white coat said to Liang Chengpeng and his wife at the door of the operating room: "Myocardial infarction is a disease. If you delay for one second, the myocardium will die more. Now the patient is sick again, which is very dangerous. Maybe we can talk here.
The old lady is gone, let’s make a decision quickly, whether to do the surgery or not?”
Director Liang's wife cried: "Doctor, you must save my mother!"
The doctor said: "I can only say that I will try my best."
Liang Chengpeng's heart was also in his throat, and he was so anxious that he walked back and forth there. Finally, he squeezed out one word through his teeth, "...do it!"
The doctor said: "Well, let's do the pre-operative preparations now. I have given you the order. Go and pay the fee."
Dong Xuebin looked at the sad expressions of Director Liang and his wife, and felt a little unbearable. He quietly walked out of the door and made a call to Han Jing's mobile phone. Mrs. Han on the other end was doing an examination. She rang for a long time before answering, "Hello.
, Auntie, the mother of a friend of mine has a myocardial infarction and is about to undergo surgery. She is in the 305 Hospital. The situation is very urgent. The old lady probably won’t last long. Can you see if you can..."
Han Jing thought to himself, "Where are you now?"
"In the operating room, the operation is about to take place, but the doctor said the success rate is not high."
"Don't worry, just wait there, I'll make arrangements right away."
Not long after, Liang Chengpeng and his wife paid the fee, hurriedly ran up from downstairs, and gave the receipt to the doctor.
Immediately, the sound of hurried footsteps got closer and closer, and around the corner, Vice President Qin, who had changed into a white coat, came over.
The doctor was stunned and said, "Dean Qin!"
Vice President Qin didn't bother to talk to him. He looked at Dong Xuebin and said, "Where is the patient?"
Dong Xuebin said: "It's inside, just sent in."
Vice President Qin immediately said to the young doctor: "Call Director Liu and Director Cheng here, and I will do the surgery myself!"
The young doctor was stunned for a moment and said, "...Yes."
Neither Liang Chengpeng nor his lover understood what was going on. Vice President Qin entered the operating room with the young doctor. Liang Chengpeng looked at Dong Xuebin in shock, "Director Dong, this is..."
Dong Xuebin said: "Dean Qin is the authority in this field. With him performing the surgery himself, the old lady should be fine."
Over there, Director Liu and Director Cheng also ran over quickly and entered the operating room one after another.
As soon as the door was closed, someone pushed it open from the inside. The young doctor came out and said to Dong Xuebin: "Dean Qin asked me to tell you that he just saw the radiography and said that the success rate should be nine percent.
Ten or more will put your mind at ease."
Dong Xuebin exhaled, "Thank you very much."
No matter how stupid Liang Chengpeng and the others were, they could still see that this was the relationship Director Xiao Dong was looking for, and the success rate suddenly jumped from less than 40% to 90%? Director Liang’s lover was so grateful that he didn’t know how to express it.
After saying anything, he took Dong Xuebin's hand and said, "Xiao Dong, thank you, thank you."
Liang Chengpeng was also moved. He looked at Dong Xuebin and said, "Director Dong, thank you."
Expert consultation! And the dean does the surgery himself!
Director Liang’s wife didn’t know the value of this, so how could Liang Chengpeng not know?
I'm afraid that when the provincial party secretary or governor reaches this level...that's what they get, right?
