County L is not too far from the provincial capital. Lin Mo and the others set off from the hospital, drove along the national highway, and arrived at the provincial hospital in more than three hours. The friends Lin Hai contacted early in the morning were very energetic. Before Lin Mo and the others arrived, he had helped them contact the best surgeon in the provincial hospital, and communicated with the attending physician at the county hospital by phone. Surgical planning.
As soon as Lin Jian and the others arrived, the chief surgeon and assistants got his medical records, carefully studied the X-rays of his legs, re-examined him, and revised the operation plan.
The middle-aged doctor took the form and said regretfully: "I'm sorry, the patient missed the best time for treatment. The part of the left leg below the knee must be amputated. If the family agrees to the operation, please sign here."
The last trace of luck in Lin Mo's heart was shattered. But compared to the situation in his previous life, he felt very comforted. At any rate, the right leg can still be preserved. If the left leg is amputated below the knee joint, it will be able to walk like a normal person with a prosthesis in the future. In her previous life, there was a girl who had prosthetic limbs on both legs, and she could still dance. Even if the issue of prosthetics cannot be considered at this stage, Dad's right leg can be good, at least he can move around with a cane. .
The old lady looked at the list handed over by the doctor, and looked at the doctor helplessly, her lips trembling uncontrollably: "I...Does our youngest really have to amputate? Can't it be amputated?"
The doctor said some highly professional terms, which the old lady couldn't understand, but she also understood that Lin Jian's left leg was really going to be lost.
"Momo, do you really want to sign?" The old lady looked at her grandson with tears in her eyes.
Lin Mo patted the old lady on the back, and said in a deep voice, "Grandma, sign it, this is already the best result."
"My poor youngest..." The old lady couldn't help crying again.
After Lin Mo persuaded her gently for a while, the old lady shook her hands and signed her name on the form.
Li Chunlian.
Although the old lady's name is rustic, the doctor couldn't help but look at her twice because of the three neat and beautiful lowercase letters, and praised: "The old lady's handwriting is so beautiful."
In normal times, the old lady would probably have boasted a few words, but now she is in such a mood, "It's okay. Doctor, please pay more attention to my son's operation."
The doctor smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, we will try our best."
After the doctor finished speaking, he took the list and left, and soon a group of medical staff pushed Lin Jian into the operating room. Before entering, Lin Jian's condition was not very good and he was still in a coma. When the old lady thought about the old man being pushed into the operating room like this, she left without even saying a word to her. As anxious as ants on the edge of a hot pot, he kept walking back and forth in front of the closed operation door, chanting words to the gods and bodhisattvas for blessings.
Lin Changqing was afraid that the two of them, the old and the young, would not be able to handle things, so they came with them. When his wife came over in the afternoon, he asked her to take Lin Shu back to the village and live in their house for the time being. Lin Mo's house feeds four old hens and one big rooster, so it can't be kept in the yard without anyone to feed them. When he went out in the morning, Lin Mo forgot to feed them. Lin Shu has the key, just remember to feed them some food and water every day.
Lin Shu is obviously not happy to stay as a housekeeper, but the child is also very sensible, his brother and grandma won't let him go, and he didn't play around like other children, only two bubbles of tears, pitiful With a crying voice, he said: "Brother, you come back early, I will wait for you at home obediently."
That small look made Lin Mo's heart soften, and he immediately patted his chest to promise that he would go home as soon as possible. A certain unscrupulous older brother smirked in his heart - Xiaoyou, it turned out that his younger brother with a gentle and scumbag face was actually a little cry when he was a child. It's a pity that I don't have a camera. If I can take a picture of him now and take it out later, it will be a lot of fun.
Lin Changqing was dizzy from being shaken by the old lady, and said: "Old sister-in-law, don't shake, I just asked the doctor, the operation will take several hours, please come and sit down. It's getting late now, you and the little girl Mo is waiting here, I will cook some noodles for you and bring them back."
Lin Mo's throat hurts badly, and he said in a hoarse voice, "Third Grandpa, you stay here with grandma, I'll go buy it. I seem to have caught a cold last night, so I'll go buy some medicine along the way."
Lin Changqing worried: "Do you know the way?"
The provincial capital is not comparable to the pimple-sized small county of L County. Even when he came a few times, he didn't dare to wander around without being accompanied by anyone, for fear of getting lost, let alone Lin Mo, who is only half a child.
Lin Mo smiled slightly: "It's okay, if you don't know the way, you can ask. I'm so old, I can't get lost."
It's true, most people in the provincial capital are very enthusiastic, and generally don't give directions blindly. Moreover, Lin Mo is a kid, not a girl, so he can't suffer.
"Well, be careful yourself. If you can't find your way, take three rounds and ask him to take you to the provincial hospital, you know?"
"Well, I see."
The hospitalization fee was 50,000 yuan in advance, and the old lady still had more than 10,000 yuan in her hand. She was afraid of being pickedpocketed, so she took half of it and asked Lin Changqing to keep it for her. , I can't wait to stuff all the money in my stomach to feel safe.
The old lady took care of it for a long time, and took out two hundred-yuan bills with heartache, and a few ten-one-one-fifty change and handed them to Lin Mo: "I will buy more things later, your third grandpa has been busy with us all afternoon, and he hasn't even drooled yet." I've had it. A cold is not a minor illness, so just take it easy, anyway, the family's big money has been spent, so it's not bad. Grandma is still counting on you to earn money for me in the future."
Lin Mo took the money, smiled and comforted: "I know, don't worry, grandma, I will raise your old man to be fat and fat in the future."
"Slick tongue, you go and come back quickly, don't worry me, you know?" Even though she knew that Lin Mo was not a worrying child, the old lady couldn't help but whine.
"I know."
It was drizzling outside, and the wind was blowing, clammy and clammy. Lin Mo tightened his clothes and went directly to the outpatient department of the provincial hospital. After queuing for a while, it was his turn. The doctor took his temperature and found that he had a low-grade fever. After inquiring about his symptoms carefully, he prescribed three injections, several small bags of small pills for four days. , cost him almost fifty yuan. Rao Lin Mo could not help but feel a little heartache after going to the hospital for more than ten years with delaminated skin and three hundred colds.
Dad's salary is only four to five hundred a month. These few packs of pills cost him ten days' salary. It's black, really black.
The injection needs to be injected after meals. Lin Mo casually bought a piece of bread at the canteen outside the outpatient department, bought a bottle of mineral water, ate the bread with the mineral water, and returned to the outpatient department for an injection.
After a short rest, the rain stopped, and he went to find a restaurant outside the hospital.
Lin Mo had never been to the provincial capital a few times in his previous life, and he only came after several years, so he was really not familiar with the route of the provincial capital. He even asked several people before he found a Chinese restaurant near the hospital.
It's already seven o'clock at this moment, the weather in Jincheng is dark early in winter, and the weather is cold, so there are not many customers in the Chinese restaurant. Lin Mo went to order one serving of Mapo Tofu, two servings of braised pork, one serving of fried pork with potatoes and salt, and one serving of stir-fried cabbage, and took them home. Because of the location, the price of the restaurant is on the high side. A few dishes plus three servings of rice cost Lin Mo more than 30 yuan.
Compared with the consumption in L County, the provincial capital is much more expensive. On the way back to the hospital, Lin Mo thought that after his father's operation was finished, he would not be able to go back to the county right away, at least he would have to stay here for ten and a half months. After Dad's operation is done, Third Grandpa will definitely go back. Anyway, there are many things in his family. It is impossible for him and his grandma to stay in the hospital all the time, and it is impossible to buy food outside all the time. Firstly, it is too expensive, and secondly, Dad also needs to eat some nutritious food to make up for the injury so that the injury can heal faster. The things sold outside are not as good as those made by ourselves.
Maybe, I can ask Third Grandpa to help me find a place to stay.
After making up his mind, Lin Mo told Lin Changqing his thoughts when he found a place to have dinner.
Lin Changqing thought to himself that this child is really careful, and he is extremely thoughtful in thinking about things, and he is quite satisfied with Lin Mo in his heart. I didn't know much about it before. I thought Lin Mo was a good kid who was smart, quiet and able to learn. I didn't expect him to start things at a young age, and he was more secure and thoughtful than some adults. It's a pity that this kind of thing happened, otherwise He must be the first college student in the village, what a pity.
"When I came, your Uncle Hai said that he has a house near here, and he usually comes to live in it when he is doing business, and it is usually vacant. I will take you there tomorrow to identify the place. The youngest is discharged from the hospital. You can live there with peace of mind before." Mentioning his son, Lin Changqing's eyes were full of complacency.
The old lady hurriedly said: "What a shame..."
Lin Changqing laughed and said, "Why are you being polite to me, old sister-in-law? Your nephew's place is just like your home, and it doesn't matter how long you want to stay."
It's borrowing money and helping out relationships, and now lending them a house to live in, it's really helping them a lot. No matter how angry the old lady was with Wang Yanyan, she couldn't turn her anger on Lin Changqing anymore. The old lady was like a mirror in her heart. Lin Changqing's busy schedule was equivalent to saving her son's life. If you talk about Wang Yanyan's matter again, it would be ignorant to take Qiao for granted. Besides, Lin Changqing introduced this marriage out of good intentions. Who knew Wang Yanyan was such a thing? If you want to blame it, you have to blame Wang Yanyan, that vixen who suffered a thousand knives.
The old lady thanked her repeatedly, and never mentioned anything about Wang Yanyan again. Lin Changqing was also happy to turn over this page.
The operation lasted until half past one in the morning. Lin Jian's condition has stabilized temporarily, but he still needs to be observed in the intensive care unit for a period of time before being transferred to the general ward.
Lin Mo saw his father lying quietly on the bed through the window of the ward, and couldn't help smiling. No matter what, Dad kept at least one leg. The fate of the family has deviated from the established track and will definitely develop in a better and better direction.
