We angrily retorted "Zhao Jinbao" and the Peng family, and had a great response in the small county hospital. The hospital present was also very embarrassed. The dean asked someone to call Sister Hong and do the work in person. The purpose was to agree to give up Xiaozhuang's custody and hand over the child to the Peng family. Sister Hong refused again, which made the dean very embarrassed.

At that time, we were all angry and did not fully understand the seriousness of the matter. In the next few days, we were like two vigilant leopards, supporting us hard.

One night, a young resident on duty called Sister Hong and me to his office. This was a young man who had just graduated from medical school.

"Why do you disagree to give the children to them?" The young doctor's question was very direct, and the anger in my heart suddenly burst out again.

"Why should we give it to them? This is our child." If I hadn't seen the young man's innocent expression, I almost jumped up again.

"Did you save your child's life?" The young doctor was not affected by my emotions.

"Is this more important? He is our life." As I said this, I glanced at Sister Hong beside me.

"If you want to save his life, you should agree to their request." The young doctor continued to say unyieldingly.

"Why?" Sister Hong and I shouted in unison.

"Because of money." The young man's answer was straightforward, "Before graduation, I interned in a large hospital in Shanghai, and I encountered the same case as your child, which is also a congenital heart disease. This kind of child's congenital heart disease requires surgery as soon as possible, and the earlier the better, otherwise it will be difficult to live to adulthood. Of course, surgery is not only risky, but also very expensive, which costs at least 20,000 yuan, but this is the only way to save the child's life."

"Twenty thousand yuan?" Sister Hong and I screamed again.

You should know that in the early 1980s, the "ten thousand yuan household" had just become the symbol of a rich man, and 20,000 yuan was definitely an astronomical figure. At that time, my salary of Sister Hong and I was less than 70 yuan a month, and even if we don’t eat or drink all day, we can’t save so much money.

"So, your interests are more important than the lives of your children? If they have money to save the children, why do you refuse?" The young doctor continued, but we could no longer listen. Two thousand yuan? Two thousand yuan! Two thousand yuan... The indescribable despair and sadness almost knocked us down again.

We didn't know how we walked out of the doctor's duty room. Sister Hong kept crying silently. I knew she must be incredibly painful and entangled, but I didn't know how to persuade her. The children in the ward and their parents fell asleep, and Xiaozhuang also fell asleep. She actually showed a smile in her sleep. I gently hugged Sister Hong's twitching shoulders, looked at the cold moon outside the ward window, and thought about her ideas. It was not until the second half of the night that she gradually became confused without realizing it.

The next afternoon, the young resident who was in charge of Xiaozhuang's hospital bed secretly called me out again. I thought he was going to talk to me about Xiaozhuang's condition, and my heart was beating all the way, and I was afraid that something unexpected happened again.

When I arrived at the doctor's office, the young man pushed the door and my heart was raised. There were Zhao Wu and Li Qin, a big Baotou, sitting inside. When they saw me walking in, they stood up quickly.

"Wu Ping." Li Qin, who was already a young woman, gained a lot of weight. Her fair and round face was filled with shame, which showed more moisturizing beauty than before.

"Hello, brother." Zhao Wu tweaked his long hair that covered his eyes and smiled at me with a flattering look on his face.

"You have something to do with me?" Looking at the two of them nodding and bowing, I felt very clear in my heart.

"This... is nothing big, it's just... it's..." Zhao Wu was a little stuttering and was unable to see Li Qin next to him. She glanced at Da Baotou and hurriedly continued, "It's just that we want to come to find you and do Yin Hong's job, and let her hand over the child here."

As expected, this is true, I feel a little ridiculous. It seems that they are really trying their best to keep their so-called "root" and have thought of all their ideas.

"Do you think this is possible?" I said to Li Qin with a hard smile, "You have children, and you are also a mother. If it were you, would you do this?"

Li Qin's face suddenly turned red, her eyes wandering, and she didn't dare to look directly into my eyes.

Zhao Wu complained to Li Qin dejectedly: "You forced me to come here, how about it? Brother... he would definitely not agree. Sorry, Angkor, we are also entrusted by our family, and they asked us to come to you."

"Don't make things difficult for you, this is definitely not possible." I didn't want to say anything anymore. I didn't want to make things difficult for Li Qin. After saying this, I turned around and walked out.

"Wu Ping, wait." As soon as I walked out of the doctor's office, Li Qin chased after me from behind.

"This is for Yin Hong's child. I know I can't save anything, so I want to express my feelings." Li Qin took out a hundred-dollar bill that had just been issued and stuffed it into my hand.

I weighed the four great men on the face, they lined up kindly, looking at the motherland and people behind me affectionately, with a smile on my face.

"Thank you for your kindness. People have to pay attention to being in contact with you, but I don't know how to deal with you in the future. This way I will owe you favors. I think Yin Hong must be uneasy, so I really can't accept this money." I looked at Li Qin's slightly embarrassed expression and stuffed the money back into her hands.

Li Qin turned her face and looked at the end of the corridor with sad eyes: "Why can't we come and go..."

My heart twitched, and suddenly, it seemed as if I saw the girlfriend of Senior Brother Xiao Cai again. I didn’t know how to answer for a while. After being silent for a while, I raised my face and replied: “I’ve seen you in the market management. That time, you scared me and my sister.”

A trace of doubt appeared on Li Qin's face. She probably didn't understand what I was talking about, because that was already a state of life that she could not change now. She kept staring at me like this until I turned around and left, still looking at me in confusion.

Three days later, Xiaozhuang's fever subsided, and I wanted to let him be hospitalized for another two days, but Sister Hong said that Xiaozhuang could take medicine at home to consolidate and resolutely let me go through the discharge procedures. I knew she felt sorry for the money and knew that such hospitalization was useless...

Back at my rented home, in order to comfort Sister Hong, I forced myself to cheer up and deliberately showed the rare relaxation and humor. For the first time, I took the initiative to do housework, rush to cook and wash dishes, and even secretly washed the clothes of the three. I pampered Xiaozhuang even more, for fear that she would not do anything considerately and would make him suffer. But these could only be exchanged for Sister Hong's miserable smile. Looking at her sad eyes and dazed expression, I felt heartbroken and uncomfortable, really afraid that she would not be able to withstand the complete collapse that day.
