Siheyuan: I earned foreign exchange in the heyday

Chapter 905 Blackmail

Uncle Nie doesn't care about sales at all now. As long as Chen Changan says yes, he will start building the factory immediately.

There was really no other way. With more and more educated young people returning to their hometowns, the entire city was overcrowded.

Groups of young people can be seen wandering around the roadside.

On the way to the automobile factory, Chen Changan also saw a group of idle people in society and sighed.

And the next morning, at the automobile factory vegetable market.

Since the workers in the automobile factory have good welfare and many family members, the amount of vegetables consumed every day is not a small amount.

The service company sells a limited variety of dishes, so it attracts many people from nearby villages, who bring their own vegetables here to sell every day.

Du Yue'e's home is not far from the residential area of ​​the automobile factory, just a few miles away.

She had been honest and kind all her life, but she experienced something that made her feel miserable.

Originally, Du Yue'e had a happy family. Both her father and son were coal miners. Her son got married and had children, and she became a grandmother as she wished.

She originally thought that she could live a peaceful and stable life like this for the rest of her life.

Unfortunately, accidents happen unexpectedly. One day in September, when the father and son were digging rocks through the coal seam in the coal mine, a major roof collapse accident occurred.

The father and son were buried directly, and it was several days later when they were dug out.

The sudden death of her husband and son made Du Yue look much older due to hunger.

Fortunately, there are still my daughter-in-law and grandson, but unfortunately the good times didn’t last long, as my grandson suddenly fell ill.

Originally, the compensation from the two men in the family was enough to pay for their grandson's medical treatment.

But the daughter-in-law left one morning and never came back, and the compensation money also disappeared with her.

Everyone in the village said that her daughter-in-law ran away with a strange man.

Seeing that her grandson's illness was getting worse and worse and her family had no money to treat him, Du Yue'e was in tears.

Her husband and son are both gone, and her grandson is her only hope.

Du Yue'e, who has been selling vegetables at the automobile factory for many years, has heard many legends about the automobile factory community hospital.

In particular, the Traditional Chinese Medicine ICU run by Dr. Li has saved many lives.

Thinking of this, Du Yue'e went out and picked all the vegetables from her family's private plot in one go.

Then he carried his grandson on his back, picked up some vegetables, and went directly to the vegetable market in front of the residential area of ​​the automobile factory.

She wants to sell the vegetables in exchange for the medical expenses of her grandson.

They first came to the community hospital, and Du Yue'e knelt down directly in front of the doctor.

"Doctor, please save my grandson. He has a high fever.

My husband and my son both died in the coal mine. I only have this one grandson. You must save him."

Du Yue'e cried so heartbreakingly that she attracted the attention of the entire hospital.

Seeing this, Zhao Jianhong hurried over.

"Please get up first. I am the director of the hospital. Give the child to me and I will take a look at him first."

Then Du Yue'e followed Zhao Jianhong to the emergency room with a nervous mood.

After a brief investigation, Zhao Jianhong frowned.

This child not only has a high fever, but is also likely to have pneumonia. The specific situation needs further examination.

The initial diagnosis is that it is most likely diphtheria or whooping cough. And the disease has been there for some time.

"Auntie, the child has a high fever and won't go away. We need to reduce the fever first. If the fever continues like this, there may be sequelae."

Tu Yuet-e had no education at all, so of course she just followed whatever the doctor said.

Then Du Yue'e whispered to Zhao Jianhong.

"Doctor, my family is in financial difficulty. Can you let my grandson get treatment here first? I'll pay you after I sell the vegetables."

Zhao Jianhong has seen a lot of things like this, especially in recent years. As the community hospital has become more and more famous, not only people from the surrounding areas of the city, but even people from other places have come here to seek medical treatment.

Zhao Jianhong provides free treatment to those whose families are in financial difficulty.

In most cases, it doesn't cost much and the hospital can afford it.

The community hospital was originally a subsidiary of the automobile factory and was not run for profit.

The doctors' salaries were also paid by the factory, and the hospital itself only needed to balance its income and expenditure, or even if it did not make much loss. For Zhao Jianhong's sake, Chen Changan would not say anything.

After the examination, treatment and intravenous drip, the child's fever not only subsided, but he also became more lively and started to giggle at Du Yue'e.

Du Yue'e's heart was about to melt, and she also regretted that she should not have asked the village barefoot doctor to see her.

Giving the child a few painkillers not only did the condition not improve, but it got worse.

If the treatment is still good in the city hospital, the child’s fever will go down in no time.

Zhao Jianhong came back after a busy period, looked at the sleeping child, and then said to Du Yue'e.

“Auntie, the child is seriously ill and needs to be hospitalized.

But considering your family's poor conditions, forget about hospitalization. You can just bring your child here for injections every day.

However, this injection must be given continuously for at least a few days, so don't forget.

After giving Du Yue'e some instructions, Zhao Jianhong left.

When Du Yue'e walked out of the hospital with her grandson, the day had already dawned. Du Yue'e looked at her grandson in front of her and the dishes beside her, and was full of hope for her future life.

Carrying his grandson on his back and carrying vegetables on his shoulders, he came to the vegetable market. After greeting a few familiar vegetable vendors, he started selling vegetables.

Although Zhao Jianhong did not ask her for money, her grandson still needed injections later, so it was impossible for her not to pay every time.

Du Yue'e thought that she would try to send the money from the sale to the hospital.

This hospital is not a charity. If it doesn't ask for money, it will go bankrupt sooner or later.

People eat a variety of grains, so it is inevitable that they will get sick. If hospitals go bankrupt, who will treat them in the future?

With the popularity of the community vegetable market, villagers nearby like to come here.

There is another reason, which is that the automobile factory is very famous, and some small gangsters dare not come here to cause trouble.

But today, for some reason, a few gangsters came here.

Du Yue'e has been selling vegetables here for a long time. Besides, the vegetables are grown by herself. She picks them at night and sells them in the morning, so they look fresh.

So her business here is also the best.

As three people who were obviously dressed as gangsters walked over, Du Yue'e glanced at them without saying anything.

After selling vegetables for a long time, one can also judge people by their appearance. It is obvious that these three people are not here to buy vegetables.

"Business is good? Give me ten kilograms of water spinach and we'll pay you tomorrow."

Du Yue'e frowned.

“This is the vegetable I grow myself. It’s not expensive, only three cents per pound.

My grandson is sick, and I have to pay for his medical treatment after selling the vegetables. I really can’t sell on credit.”

Before Du Yue'e could finish her words.

One of the hooligans kicked over the basket and the vegetables were all over the floor. He shouted at the same time.

"What does your grandson's illness have to do with us? You don't have to give him food. Just treat us brothers to some big meat buns from the workers' restaurant and we'll forget about it."
