The leisurely life of rebirth

Guo Xianda found out he was not feeling well at the beginning of this year.

It was not until March or April that I went to check it out.

As a result, it was discovered that there was something wrong with the kidneys. At that time, it was like a bolt from the blue, and I was sitting on a chair in the hospital, motionless.

As a teacher myself, I also know some basic knowledge.

With this disease, it is basically impossible to do heavy physical work.

Frequent dialysis is also required, and in severe cases, kidney transplantation is required.

Later, I went to the city for a review. The city doctor suggested that I go to the province to have a checkup. For now, I would start with conservative treatment and most likely need a kidney transplant.

Guo Xianda has been hesitant.

I also roughly inquired about the cost of a kidney transplant, which starts at least 30, not including other expenses.

We still have to wait for a kidney source and a match.

After the body change, you also need to take medicine for a long time and have frequent check-ups.

The future is basically alive.

The whole family makes money on their own. My wife takes care of the farm work, and my son goes to college. After graduation, he has to work and live. If he lives in a big city, he has to buy a house and get married.

I can barely afford medical treatment with the little money I have. After spending it all, what will my son do in the future?

You can bear minor illnesses and survive serious ones.

Guo Xianda was ready to rely on fate. He would die sooner or later.

In many families, it is not a difficult choice to lose both people and money, or to save money and use it for people.

Who knew that, through twists and turns, his students would be able to be arranged to enter a breeding farm.

Given the choice, no one wants to die.

The ants still live in vain, let alone people shouting!

Guo Xianda also wants to see his son get married and his grandchildren.

When that time comes, I will die with peace of mind.

"Zhou You, the teacher is no longer polite to you. I leave the work to you. Don't worry, I will do a good job. Your wife is older and her children are not at home, so she can work overtime." Guo Xianda was not pretentious.

Life is almost gone. If you are pretentious, you are teaching stupidly.

"Teacher, the breeding farm rarely works overtime. Don't worry, it's easy to ask for leave, and you won't have to miss your medical treatment." Zhou You explained, making the breeding farm look like exploiting people.

Zhou You discovered that many migrant workers can actually enjoy very good welfare benefits as long as they do not pursue profit maximization.

But many people are blindly pursuing profit maximization.

If you don’t want to have it, if you have it, you want more, and there will be no end.

I can only squeeze the employees hard and earn all my hard-earned money. I don’t know if I will feel uneasy in the middle of the night.

There is a high probability that he will not be uneasy.

Because the values ​​are different,

In an era where beauty and ugliness are indistinguishable and ugliness is regarded as beauty, not making money is a sin.

"How can that be done? You can't be special. What should you do? How about it? It will be hard for you to be a human being then." Guo Xianda thought Zhou You was just saying it politely.

Zhou You looked at Huang Decheng and asked him to briefly explain the farm system. Zhou You didn't know the details.

Huang Decheng understood what Zhou You meant. He sat down with Teacher Guo and said in a cheerful voice: "Teacher, we all work at the breeding farm. It's very relaxing. It's much easier than working outside."

"Yes, teacher, we have all the holidays we should have, we have subsidies for overtime work, and we go out for fun once a year." Another person added.

"Basically, we don't work overtime. The divisions are quite detailed. Breeding, technology, purchasing, and sales are divided into many positions. Most of us breed them first, and then further train them based on personal wishes and abilities." I understand this a little bit.

"I plan to slowly learn some skills. Most of them are still done by school professors and teachers, so I will start with them." Huang Decheng wants to learn some skills and move to a technical position in the future. The money is more important.

The key is that these real technologies can be used in the future.

I usually don’t worry about it when I travel around. I just pay attention in a general direction. This is the first time I heard them talk about these things. It’s really interesting.

Guo Xianda didn't pay much attention to it. He was worried about his own illness. How could he have the energy to care about outside things? Even though they were in neighboring villages, he didn't ask around, had no acquaintances, and didn't know much.

"I heard that the treatment is good?" Guo Xianda asked cautiously, and he really wanted to know.

"Oh, it depends on the position. Anyway, everyone is not very different. They take care of food and drink, give out materials, and don't pay rent. Basically, I can save. I currently have about [-] to [-] per month, and I will still have performance at the end of the year. "Huang Decheng gave the teacher a brief explanation.

The salary is not a secret, everyone who works there knows it.

In the village, it is sheer nonsense if you try to keep wages confidential.

That is to say, those rubbish companies that keep wages confidential must be unreasonable and want to build an information barrier to keep everyone busy working.

In fact, it couldn’t be kept secret for long, and gradually everyone knew about it.

The phenomenon of salary inversion has really intensified since then, eating people without spitting out their bones, and constantly challenging people's bottom line of work.

It can only be said that there are too many routines and people's hearts are too complicated.

Guo Xianda compared his salary. With an intermediate professional title and nearly 20 years of service, he usually only makes this much money.

Thinking about it this way, the village will be great in the future.

He turned to look at the person in his village, Huang Decheng's wife.

According to her seniority, she is still her niece. She said enviously: "You are lucky to marry into their village."

Huang Decheng's wife smiled and said, "Uncle, it's much better now than before. You can make money even if you stay at home. It's free for children to go to school. From kindergarten to university, it's free. The village covers everything, and there are subsidies for the elderly."

"Really?" Guo Xianda really didn't know this.

After Zhou You heard this, he interjected: "Yes, but there is no large-scale publicity. It is still in the stage of gradual promotion. I don't know how long it will last. More importantly, I am afraid of causing unnecessary trouble to other villages."

I was so shocked today. Guo Xianda looked at his student and knew that the child had an idea. Unexpectedly, he was actually willing to do it and it was almost completed.

But Zhou You knows that after this year, almost everyone in the neighborhood will know about it.

Visiting relatives, chatting, bragging, these are the best topics.

It’s just that Zhouyou didn’t deliberately promote it, and it’s not that he didn’t let everyone speak. He had to give everyone a process of adaptation.

"Well, that's right. Good things should come slowly. There are many cases of pink eye, and people's hearts are too complicated." Guo Xianda is still more knowledgeable than the average villager.

"By the way, teacher, would you like to go to Shanghai for a re-examination? The professional level must be among the top in the country, so you can rest assured if you go and take a look." Zhou You thought for a while and said this, it was a piece of cake for him.

For teachers, it may be extremely difficult.

Guo Xianda waved his hands quickly and said in an excited tone: "I won't go, I don't dare to go. I heard that you can't even get a registration, and the cost of medical treatment is high, and it's troublesome to go back and forth."

This is actually a misunderstanding among everyone. Going to Shanghai to see a doctor is really not more expensive than in other places.

Going to other places to see a doctor costs more accommodation and transportation expenses.

Another point is that the reimbursement ratio of medical insurance is relatively low.

However, seeing a doctor in Shanghai saves a lot of human expenses, and the doctors are highly qualified, so there is no shortage of patients, and they do not make money by prescribing drugs or performing surgeries.     Be able to give more reasonable suggestions based on the disease itself.

In terms of pure medical expenses, it is sometimes cheaper than local hospitals.

Especially in the future, with the convenience of online consultation and online registration, as long as you have used it a few times, you will know how to operate it, and it will be more convenient to register and see an expert.

But this is still not enough. It is still very troublesome for ordinary people to go to the doctor.

I don’t know how to find an expert, I don’t know which one is better, and I don’t know how to register. It’s really scary to have a black eye.

The fear of the unknown.

Zhou You did not continue to persuade, but said seriously: "Teacher, it's best to go for a review as soon as possible. If you need a kidney transplant and have to wait in line, I still have some connections in Shanghai. I can help if needed."

"Also, don't worry about money. Our farm has a support plan for employees in need, which can relieve a lot of stress. Hundreds of thousands is a lot of money, and you can save money by working on the farm for a few years. Don't be stressed."

In fact, Zhou You could have paid for it himself, but considering Teacher Guo's feelings and the uncertain risks of so many people in the future, he still couldn't say it directly.

The most important thing is that Teacher Guo has money to go to see him, but he may become poor due to illness, so he has been hesitant.

Giving yourself a stable path is the long-term plan.

In the eyes of the villagers, I am just a university teacher who earns a little money and has great vision.

No one knows his assets except his parents.

Even parents only know a small part of it.

Not being able to let others know all the details is a survival strategy for traveling around, so that you can have a place and capital to settle down at any time.

According to the last plan, the layout has already begun.

But this matter is not so urgent, you have to take your time.

Guo Xianda nodded and looked at Zhou You, his eyes began to turn red. After being sick for more than half a year, he could see people's hearts more clearly.

The world is hot and cold, and people's hearts are warm and cold.

I have experienced everything myself. Only by experiencing it personally can I know the value of being supported by others, and how difficult it is to have someone willing to support me.

"You are here, don't leave at noon, don't dislike the teacher's family, just have a simple meal, sit down for a while, I will buy some cooked food, it just so happens that my wife can save some money." Guo Xianda was a little excited.

Huang Decheng and others looked at Zhou You to see his reaction.

Zhou You smiled and said happily: "Okay, I haven't talked to the teacher for a long time. I'm just waiting for my wife to come. I'll take her to complete the entry procedures and talk about something that's on my mind."

"Decheng, you and your siblings are going to buy some food. If not, go to the breeding farm and ask them to make a table and deliver it to you. Anyway, you can see for yourself and drive there in my car." After that, he gave the key to Decheng.

Guo Xianda originally wanted to be more humble, but seeing his physical condition, he stopped fighting.

Work is all arranged by others. When your health is better and you are on the right track, I will talk about it slowly.

"The teacher is no longer polite to you, and your health doesn't allow it. Slow down on the road and pay attention to safety."

The remaining two people saw that the yard was a little messy, so they got up to clean it up.

Zhou You looked at it and didn't interfere. He got used to it and gradually lost his ability to see.

In rural areas here, everyone likes to build a passage similar to the living room style at the door.

When the weather is nice, you can sit at the door and do some farm work. It can provide shade and ventilation.

I usually sit down there to eat, and I can even put some electric cars there to charge.

It's a big place, so you can feel comfortable no matter what you do.

"Teacher, why didn't you move to the county seat?" Zhou You was also chatting there.

We haven’t seen each other for so many years. It’s unrealistic to say how much affection you have.

"No, what are you spending that money for? Living in the village is convenient for commuting to and from get off work, and the family can take care of them. Many of them have bought houses in the county." Guo Xianda originally wanted to buy a house in the city.

At that time, I was thinking about asking my wife to accompany my son when he was in high school.

Unexpectedly, my son studied well and passed the exam directly to the city. He completely gave up the idea of ​​going to the county. In addition, the probability of the child returning to the county in the future was not high, so he simply kept the money and talked about it later.

Zhou You doesn’t know what Teacher Guo’s children will do in the future?

I don’t know if my participation this time saved his life.

In the original time and space, I lived like a dog. I only went home a handful of times, and I was even less willing to socialize with people and talk about these things.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but ask: "Teacher, what were you planning to do?"

When Guo Xianda heard Zhou You ask this, he couldn't help but sigh: "What else can I do? It depends on my fate. If I am lucky, I will live a few more years. If it doesn't work, it is God's will. My name is destined to be like this."

Yes, what else can a person do if he doesn’t accept his fate when he reaches middle age?

Zhou You was speechless, yes, so what if he didn't accept his fate. He had always refused to accept his fate back then. Wasn't it still like that? Did he change his destiny?

not at all.

Except for his own silent resistance, except for his parents.

It is estimated that there is a high probability that, just like Teacher Guo, no one cares or helps, and just disappears quietly into the sea of ​​people.

Maybe when someone mentions it occasionally, one can say: What a pity!

Other than that, there are probably no other traces.

"Teacher, treatment with peace of mind is not an incurable disease. With you here, the child will feel at ease and have someone to rely on. Otherwise, it would be very lonely for the child to struggle alone in this world." Zhou Youshen said with the same feeling. .

Parents are a wall against death.

My parents are gone, and my own death is coming soon!

Guo Xianda remained silent, picked up the warm kettle and poured water for Zhou You.

Seeing this, Zhou You quickly picked it up and poured it himself.

"You are a university teacher now, although we are all teachers, one day and one place." Guo Xianda didn't want to bring up the topic of illness.

"It's all the same, but the class is a little easier." The university teacher, who traveled around without realizing it, said he was superior to others.

"Those who have to live have to live. Money, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea are all indispensable. Those who have to buy a house buy a house, and those who have to raise children have to raise children." Zhou You didn't feel any different.

In fact, at the level of the entire society, look at it from a grander perspective.

Really, not much difference.

It's all just for food.

"It's different, it's different, it's different. You have a lot of knowledge now. The teacher has been trapped in the small world, and you are trapped in the big world." Guo Xianda had his own opinion.

If it makes no difference, how can you help me?

Why can't I save myself? (End of chapter)
