Back to 80: My literary life.

Chapter 354 353 "I can't help with anything else. Now I just have some money."

"Editor Fang, please wait a moment." Chen Ximi turned and walked towards the courtyard.

"Don't tell Tie Sheng!" Fang Minghua added.

"Ah."

Seeing his wife coming back, Shi Tiesheng, who was in the living room, asked, "Minghua is gone?"

"Yeah." Chen Simi said, went into the bedroom, opened the drawer and rummaged around. "

"What are you looking for?" Shi Tiesheng felt strange.

"Nothing. Tie Sheng, you take a rest after dinner, and I'll wash the dishes later." Chen Ximi said, found a stack of test sheets and hurried out.

At the entrance of the courtyard, Fang Minghua took the order handed over by Chen Ximi, looked at it and said, "Mr. Chen, I'll take it and take a look first. I'll return it to you in a few days. Don't worry, you won't lose it."

"Ok."

Chen Ximi didn't know why Fang Minghua wanted Shi Tiesheng's laboratory test sheet, but she believed Fang Minghua.

It will not harm Shi Tiesheng.

Fang Minghua left Shi Tiesheng's home and did not go back to Luyuan. Instead, he took a bus to the General Political Courtyard.

On the bus, Fang Minghua sat on his seat and took out the stack of test sheets.

To be honest, he couldn't understand it, but the "+" signs on the test sheet could indicate that Shi Tiesheng's kidney disease was serious and urgently needed treatment.

Fang Minghua remembered that historically Shi Tiesheng died of cerebral hemorrhage, but uremia tortured him for more than 20 years.

This is completely avoidable.

If the kidney disease can be controlled and does not develop into uremia, Shi Tiesheng's quality of life will be much better, and he may be able to live longer.

Isn’t Zhang Haidi, another disabled person with high paraplegia, still alive and well in the next 20 years?

Of course, since she is a role model set by the country, she naturally takes better care of her body than Shi Tiesheng.

No matter what, let's first understand what Shi Tiiesheng's condition is now.

Fang Minghua went to the General Political Courtyard to visit Song Tangtang's grandfather and grandmother, and was naturally welcomed by the two old people.

During dinner in the evening, Fang Minghua asked: "Grandpa, do you know a good doctor for Yanjing Kidney Disease? Help a friend of mine check his disease. This is his laboratory test sheet."

"Friends? Who are your friends?" Grandpa asked.

"He is also a writer, his name is Shi Tiesheng." Fang Minghua told the two old people about Shi Tiesheng.

The two old men were filled with sympathy when they heard that he went to Qinbei to cut a queue and got rid of the root cause of his illness. He was now paralyzed and in a wheelchair.

"Minghua, please give me the test report, and I will go to the experts from the 301 Hospital to take a look at it tomorrow." Grandpa said.

301 Hospital, that is a hospital as famous as Yanjing Union Medical College.

Fang Minghua sat for a while after dinner and then left to return to Luyuan. He has classes tomorrow morning.

He kept Shi Tiiesheng's incident in mind, so on Tuesday he took the bus to the General Political Courtyard and met Song Tangtang's grandfather.

Grandpa also told him about finding a doctor.

"The doctor said that your friend has chronic glomerulonephritis. If this disease is not treated in time and allowed to develop, it can easily develop into uremia. According to the results on the test sheet, your friend's nephritis It’s very serious and I need to be hospitalized for formal treatment as soon as possible.”

"Can it be cured? How much will it cost?" Fang Minghua asked again.

"The doctor said that it is currently difficult to completely cure chronic glomerulonephritis, but it can be cured clinically. As for how much it will cost? Let me ask you again."

After speaking, my grandfather picked up the phone on the living room table and dialed a phone number.

"Professor Wang, it's me, Lao Song. Yesterday I asked you about that patient's condition. How much would it cost to achieve clinical cure?"

"Oh, I know, thank you."

Grandpa hung up the phone and said to Fang Minghua: "Professor Wang said that we should first control the condition in hospital. The hospitalization fee of 301 is higher, about 5000-8000. The key is that the disease cannot be completely cured. The monthly treatment will include the cost of medicine." , estimated to be 100-200 yuan.”

That doesn't sound like much.

But this was the mid-1980s.

"Minghua, if that Shi Tiesheng wants to be hospitalized, I can help him contact Professor Wang from the 301 Hospital. He is an expert in kidney disease."

"Thank you very much, grandpa, but I have to talk to Shi Tiesheng."

"Row."

At noon, Fang Minghua stayed at his grandfather's house for dinner. After dinner, the old man had to take a lunch break. Fang Minghua came to the living room and picked up the landline phone. He called Song Tangtang.

"Minghua, where are you?"

"I'm at grandpa's house."

"How are you, grandpa and grandma?"

"Very good. Where are the two children?"

"Quite well-behaved, too."

"Tangtang, let me tell you something."

"Ah."

Fang Minghua told Shi Tiesheng about his interactions with Shi Tiesheng in the past two days and his condition.

On the other end of the phone, Song Tangtang was silent for a moment and then said, "What are you going to do?"

"Grandpa can contact Hospital 301. I'm afraid that Shi Tiesheng is worried about his hospitalization expenses, so I want to help him pay the money, but I don't know how to talk about it."

On the other end of the phone, Song Tangtang understood what Fang Minghua meant.

Literary men like Shi Tiiesheng have strong self-esteem and are very concerned about face. Even if they are friends, they are not willing to accept favors from others, especially in terms of money.

"How much are you prepared to give?" Song Tangtang asked again.

"Twenty thousand, that's probably enough."

"Then you go find Chen Ximi." After a while, Song Tangtang's voice came: "I think Chen Ximi will accept the money. As long as it can save the life of the man she loves, women don't care much. These are so-called faces.”

"Okay, then I'll go find Chen Ximi later."

"Hey, Minghua, I found that you are very good to your friends, just like Lu Yao, Shi Tiiesheng and others." Song Tangtang said.

"I can't help with other things. Now I just have some money." Fang Minghua said with a smile: "We and our parents can't spend all the money, so we can't leave it all to our children, right? We have to do something meaningful. I think this Things have meaning.”

"Okay, I support you."

Fang Minghua hung up the phone and took a nap in the room reserved for him. When his grandparents got up, he said goodbye to them and took the bus straight to the direction of Yonghe Temple.

Instead of looking for Shi Tiiesheng, he went to Yonghegong Primary School, where Chen Ximi taught.

There was no class in the afternoon. Chen Ximi did not lead the class because her leg was slightly lame. She was preparing lessons in the office.

Then she heard a teacher walk in and said to her: "Teacher Chen, there is someone looking for you outside."

Chen Ximi stood up and walked out of the office door, and saw Fang Minghua standing in the corridor.

She thought Fang Minghua was returning Shi Tiesheng's test report to her. Unexpectedly, Fang Minghua handed her the test report and said, "Teacher Chen, can you find a convenient place? I have something I want to talk to you about."

Chen Ximi was stunned for a moment, but still said: "Then let's go downstairs."

The two went downstairs. Chen Ximi came to the small garden in the school. There was no one here for the time being, so he asked: "Editor Fang, what's the matter?"

"I asked someone to take Tiesheng's laboratory test report to the 301 Hospital to find an expert to take a look at it." Fang Minghua told Chen Ximi what happened in detail.

"What the experts mean is to have him hospitalized as soon as possible. Although his disease cannot be completely cured, it can be controlled from worsening."

Chen Ximi was happy and worried after hearing this.

Fortunately, being able to live in 301 and let experts treat my husband is a dream come true.

The sad thing is, are these high-end hospitals very expensive?
So she asked cautiously: "How much does it cost to be hospitalized in a situation like Tie Sheng's?"

"The professor said that the hospitalization fee is probably 5000-8000, and the monthly medication cost is estimated to be 100-200." Fang Minghua reported truthfully.

so much? !

Chen Ximi took a breath.

Her husband only relied on royalties, and her own salary was not high. She only found out after she got married because she had spent a lot of money on her husband’s medical treatment over the years and owed foreign debts!
Where can I get money for medical treatment now?
At this time, Fang Minghua took out two bundles of newspapers from the yellow satchel he was carrying.

"Take this, take it."

"what?"

Chen Ximi was a little confused. When he took it, he saw that the newspaper actually contained brand-new RMB!
