Chapter 25 Not Strong
Eshima Miao knew very well that her grandma had been in poor health.

She has also mentioned countless times that she hopes that the other party can go to the hospital for physical examination regularly, and she will find a way about the money.

Before the Beichuan family accident, she never used the pocket money that the Beichuan couple gave her every month, more precisely, she basically never spent it.That sum of money is not much, but it is more than enough to support the cost of an old man's annual medical examination.

But elderly people seem to be like this. They have an inexplicable resistance to the hospital. Even if they feel uncomfortable, as long as they don’t have obvious symptoms, they are unwilling to go to the hospital. In their hearts, they don’t go to the hospital when they are not sick. , It seems to be a natural concept to just get through the illness and take some cheap medicine when it is really no longer possible.

As for the regular physical examination among young people, the old people will feel that it is a waste of money just by listening to it, and they will think about saving the money for their children and grandchildren, whether it is buying a big item or changing something, anyway, it is better than using it. It's worth it on your own to go to the hospital.

After Beichuan's family changed, during her most difficult month, grandma gave her all the savings she had accumulated over the years without hesitation, and asked her to take good care of Beichuan Che.

Led by a kind female nurse, she came to the emergency center of the hospital.

"you are?"

The female nurse in charge of guiding the front desk glanced at her colleague, then stood up and looked at Miao Ejima.

"I am a family member of Toyoko Eshima. You called me just now."

"Oh! Yes, I thought you would arrive in a while, please follow me."

The female nurse withdrew her gaze, came out from the guidance desk, and led Miao Uishima to the emergency room.

Compared with the people coming and going in the hall of the emergency center, the emergency room seemed much deserted, and the hurried footsteps of two people could even be heard clearly.

The white unowned lamp sprinkled on the ground, emitting bursts of cold light.

"Grandma Ueshima was sent by her neighbor, and that old grandfather is still waiting outside the emergency room."

The female nurse lowered her voice and explained the situation to Miu Ueshima.

"What about my grandma? How is she?"

Ejima Miao's voice was full of anxiety.

The further she walked towards the end of the corridor, the more difficult her steps became. In the past, her steps were always easy, but at this moment, it was as if she had been filled with lead.

"We are trying our best to save her." The female nurse slowed down a little, stretched out her hand and patted her shoulder reassuringly, "It's okay, Dr. Fujimoto is the best doctor here, he will definitely save your grandma. .”

Ejima Miao nodded blankly and fell silent.

The two came to the end of the corridor.

"It's right here, please wait a moment."

After leaving such a sentence, the female nurse left.

On the bench outside the emergency room, an old man with gray hair lowered his head, rubbing his rough fingers anxiously.

Hearing the voice here, the old man raised his head and looked at Ejima Miao.

After recognizing her, the old man didn't say anything, and a look of sadness flashed across his eyes.

Looking at her grandmother's neighbors, and then turning her head to look at the empty corridor, Eshima Miao took out her mobile phone from her pocket and subconsciously sent a message to Beichuan Che.

When people are helpless, they will always subconsciously turn to the person they trust most for help.

*
An hour later, the emergency lights in the emergency room dimmed, and Toyoko Eshima, who was lying on the operating table, was pushed out.

Before Ejima Miao could follow, a male doctor in a white coat stopped her.

"Are you a direct relative of Toyoko Eshima?"

"I, I am."

Raising her hand timidly, Eshima met the male doctor's gaze.

She didn't know what was wrong with herself.

It seemed that from the moment she stepped here, she became timid.

I really don't seem to be as strong as I thought.

"Come with me, there are some things you need to know." The male doctor paused, he could see what the girl in front of him wanted to know, and added, "The patient just now was sent to the intensive care unit. , at present, she is out of danger."

Inside the doctor's office at the emergency center.

The male doctor took off his mask, picked up a water glass and poured a mouthful of water down his throat, then raised his eyebrows and looked at Miao Eshima, "Are you from Granny Eshima?"

"granddaughter."

Hearing this, the male doctor frowned, and a look of embarrassment flashed across his brows and eyes. The critical illness notice just now was signed by the person who sent Granny Ujima here. He asked a little uncertainly, " Are you an adult, where are your parents?"

"Not yet, my parents passed away."

Ejima Miao bit her lip, with a complicated look on her face.

"That is to say, you are now the only immediate family member of Granny Eshima?"

"Yes."

"Are you an adult?"

"No."

"Then..." The look on the male doctor's face became more and more difficult. He hesitated, and finally decided to tell the little girl in front of him the truth about the situation. "Your grandma's neighbor has advanced part of the money for the rescue operation. I will pay it later." You may need to pay the remaining fees."

"Okay, that's fine."

He said the 'pocket money' Kitagawa Che gave her was not much, but in fact it was a full 30 yen. There was no problem in paying this amount.

"However." The male doctor changed the subject, "This rescue can only be said to temporarily bring Granny Ejima back. Her lesion problem still exists. If it is not resolved, today's outbreak is a signal, and it may happen in the future. It will become more frequent and more difficult to deal with."

"Is there any way? Doctor."

Without thinking, Eshima asked subconsciously.

"Yes, it is in terms of treatment expenses..."

The male doctor raised his eyebrows, glanced at Ejima Miao, then shook his head.

From the way Toyoko Ushima and her neighbors dress, he can tell that their economic conditions may not be good, and for most ordinary people, this cost is close to the total income of a whole year or even a year and a half .

The probability of asking a pair of dependent grandparents to take out is basically equal to zero, which is not something they can afford.

"Can you tell me the exact number?"

Eshima Myu raised her head, and looked at the male doctor with some stubbornness.

The male doctor sighed, "Counting the follow-up treatment costs, it may be close to 400 million yen."

After the words fell, Ejima Miao's eyes darkened, and her whole body seemed to fall into an ice cave.

This amount of money is considered a serious injury to ordinary office workers, and there is no one who can't afford it in two or three years. For her now, it is an astronomical sum.

This cost is not something she can afford.
