The reborn peasant girl has space for farming

Chapter 786: Help him again
"You should also know about this child's problem. Her heart is underdeveloped, which is why there is such a loud murmur. The child's temperature is currently a bit high. I suggest you stay in the hospital for a few days to find out if there are any other complications. .”

The doctor adjusted his black-rimmed glasses and tried to speak out the matter in a calmer tone, so as not to frighten the young parents in front of him.

Cheng Haiyi was so choked that he couldn't speak. He could only nod his head. He went through the hospitalization procedures for his child. From admission to the pediatric ward, everyone looked at him with sympathy.

In this era, congenital heart disease is equivalent to a death sentence. Most people think that children with this disease cannot be raised. Even if they can be raised to adulthood, they will not survive until the age of 30. It is better to have another child as soon as possible.

The municipal hospital in Yuelou City is relatively well-equipped, so people from all over the country who are seriously ill will be sent here, making the originally ample wards become overcrowded, especially the infant ward, which has more than [-] beds. It was placed in a room of only [-] to [-] square meters, with the beds almost next to each other. Even the family members accompanying the young children had to sit on the bed to leave more walking space on the ground.

Bai Meixi saw that most of the people living here were not well-off. Their clothes were old, stained, and had a sour smell. They looked like they had not been washed for a long time.

A serious illness is absolutely devastating to a rural family with a low income. Even if the whole family can't raise the medical expenses, how can they be in the mood to take care of their own clothes?

"Sister-in-law, Deputy Director Cheng, I just paid the fee for my child, but her examination fee is quite high. I'm afraid I won't be able to support it tomorrow." Zhang Yang hurried back from outside with a stack of bills in his hand. Cheng Qian asked There were many laboratory tests, and the hospital fee Cheng Haiyi had just paid was not enough, so Zhang Yang pitched in 50 yuan to get enough for one night.

"Zhang Yang, I don't have much money with me today. I'll give it back to you when I get back." Cheng Haiyi touched his pocket. He was in a hurry when he just came out and didn't bring much cash in his pocket. Now he can only ask Zhang Yang to put it first. .

"It's okay, Deputy Director Cheng. The most important thing is to treat the children." Zhang Yang left the crowded ward. He really couldn't bear to stay in this place. All the patients were children, and everyone had many tubes inserted into their bodies. Many children's bodies are too small to stick needles on their hands, and they can only stick needles on their heads or feet, which is even more uncomfortable.

"Zhang Yang, wait a minute." Bai Meixi is not short of money now. After she heard that the child's medical expenses were not enough, she took out 300 yuan directly from the space and asked Zhang Yang to help pay it. She was afraid that the doctors here would Because the medical expenses are not enough, good medicine will not be used. Now that she has ten to twenty thousand private funds, she must let Cheng Qian receive the best treatment.

When Bai Meixi took out the wad of money, she attracted everyone's attention. Even Zhang Yang was stunned for a moment. When he saw Bai Meixi for the first time, he felt that she was not a thing in the pool, and she would never be like what Cheng Haiyi described. Having been idle at home like that, it seems that during the time Cheng Haiyi was in the army, Bai Meixi also had her own business at home, otherwise she would never have been so generous.

Others looked at Bai Meixi with complicated expressions. Most of them had lived here for a while, and their lives were already stretched thin. It was difficult to get even 300 yuan, let alone 30 yuan.

"Cheng Qian's family, this is your child's medicine." The nurse looked at the list and brought over a few bottles of liquid to give Cheng Qian infusion. The baby who was just one month old was too delicate and could only wait for the injection.

"Nurse, do you need an infusion for such a young child? Can you just take some medicine?" Cheng Haiyi felt scared when he saw the needle. The needle was very long, as if it was longer than the child's eyes. I have never had any infusion at this age, so I can’t imagine what it would be like if this needle was stuck in the child’s head. "How can you give medicine to such a young child? Not to mention that she has a heart disease. She can't cry or struggle violently. What if she resists desperately when the medicine is given and something goes wrong."

The nurse teased Cheng Haiyi, thinking that he was wasting time here. They had been busy all night, and finally waited until they were about to get off work. As a result, several patients were admitted at once, and each one had to check the case. Distributing medicines one by one, it is now half an hour later than the off-duty time. They haven't left yet, and they are already extremely depressed.

Cheng Haiyi quickly got out of the way, leaving room for the nurse to treat Cheng Qian. Bai Meixi was also scared, but she still stuffed a pacifier into the child's mouth, held her tightly in her arms, and let Cheng Qian Qian's ear was close to her chest, and she could hear her heartbeat at any time. Cheng Qian was obviously frightened by this sudden external stimulation. She kept trembling and crying in Bai Meixi's arms. The tone of her voice changed, making Bai Meixi unable to bear to look.

The nurse's skills were quite good, and the needle was inserted in one go. Cheng Qian might have been tired, so she lay on the bed and cried for a while before falling asleep. She kept holding the pacifier in her mouth and sucking it non-stop.

When Bai Meixi saw the child's appearance, she turned away and wiped the tears on her cheeks. She felt that the reason why Cheng Qian had a fever was because of the hardships. If she had left her in Puhai hospital from the beginning, Maybe the child will be fine at all.

Cheng Haiyi came over and held Bai Meixi's trembling shoulders. The two leaned together silently. Only in this way could they draw some strength from each other.

This warmth was out of place in the ward. No one paid attention to what they were doing. Everyone's attention was on the child, or more specifically on the child's medical expenses.

"Nurse, my son's fever hasn't gone away yet. Please give him another injection." As soon as Cheng Qian settled down, a dark and thin man in the bed next to him began to tug on the nurse's sleeve, but the little nurse suddenly shook him off. .

"202, your family is already in arrears. If you don't pay, this hospital bed will no longer be available. How can we give you injections? The hospital's medicines also have costs, and they are not brought by strong winds. How can we do this like you?"

The young nurse scolded the patient's family and left. Everyone else in the ward was also sighing. The rules here are very strict. After the medical expenses are gone, there is only a three-day buffer period. When the time is up, the nurse will come Pack your things and have the patient move out.

This approach seems a bit cruel, but for a large hospital where the supply of beds exceeds demand, such rules must be used to maintain the operation of the entire hospital.Bai Meixi wanted to help, but with so many people here, she was powerless even with ten or twenty thousand private money.
