Chapter 856

From five o'clock to eight o'clock in the evening is the busiest time of the restaurant, and even Lu Cheng is too busy to be dizzy.

After eight o'clock, the number of people in the restaurant began to decrease.

The restaurant closes at nine o'clock. Even if there is no one there, everyone must not be lazy. They must stand upright and be ready to welcome guests at any time.

Lu Cheng found time to go to the toilet, and when he bent over to wash his hands after using the toilet, the phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated.

Lu Cheng took out his mobile phone and looked at it. Seeing that it was an unfamiliar number, he hung up.

He walked out of the toilet when the phone rang again.

Lu Cheng answered the phone impatiently. "No insurance, no mobile phone card upgrade, no loan."

The person on the other end choked on Lu Cheng's words.

Lu Cheng was about to hang up the phone when he suddenly heard a delicate female voice coming from inside: "Hi, this is the Seventh People's Hospital of Yucheng. Your friend is still awake. We can't contact her family right now. Can you Can't you notify her family and ask them to pay the medical bills?"

Lu Cheng was stunned.

"She hasn't woken up yet?"

"Not yet, he lost too much blood and was in a coma all the time."

Lu Cheng took a deep breath and said angrily, "I don't know her well!"

Lu Cheng hung up the phone.

After nine o'clock, the restaurant closed. Because Lu Cheng was the last one, he missed three hours of work. At night, he was responsible for cleaning the entire restaurant.

Lu Cheng can only leave after cleaning.

Everyone else left, only Lu Cheng mopped the floor, wiped and set the tables in the restaurant, and tidied up the decorations messed up by the guests and the books on the walls.
After the busy work, it is already ten twenty.

The section of the subway he took home was going to be closed at [-]:[-] in the evening. Lu Cheng trotted to the subway entrance and caught up with the subway home.Sitting in the subway, Lu Cheng tightly held the old mobile phone in his hand.

He was very upset.

He kept thinking about the man he saved yesterday.

If he doesn't care about her, maybe the hospital will stop her follow-up treatment because she has no medical expenses.This is very possible.

Lu Cheng sighed, and after walking out of the subway station, he sent Lu Se a text message.

Lu Cheng: [Girl Se, you go to bed first, I have something to do. 】

Lu Se: [Do you want me to hold the door open for you? 】

Lu Cheng: [I brought the key. 】

It was almost 11 o'clock when Lu Cheng arrived at the hospital on his bicycle.Ji Wei lives in the surgical inpatient ward, and the large hospital is overcrowded every day, and extra beds were added to the wards that were originally stipulated to only accommodate three beds.

Because there are not enough beds, some people live directly in the corridors of the hospital.

Lu Cheng came to Ji Wei's ward, but he didn't see anyone.

He was stunned.

What about people?

Is it
died?

Lu Cheng's heart skipped a beat.

He hurried to the nurse's desk and asked about Ji Wei's whereabouts.

After hearing what he said, the nurse said, "Because there were too many patients and the girl didn't pay the medical bills, the other family members became emotional, so we pushed her up the corridor."

"It's over there, go find it."

Lu Cheng's heart sank, and he hurriedly turned around to find someone.

There are six or seven hospital beds in the corridor, and Lu Cheng found Ji Wei at the end near the toilet.

Because she has been in a coma for a long time, there is a urine bag hanging under Ji Wei's hospital bed, and her pale face and lips are pale and dry to the point of peeling.

She was still asleep and didn't know if she would wake up.

The hospital did not give up treating her, but now, it did not give her good treatment either.

Seeing Ji Wei, Lu Cheng heaved a sigh of relief.

He found the nurse again and said to the nurse, "Can you arrange a ward for her, and I'll pay her right away."

The nurse shook her head, "No, there are no empty wards."

Lu Cheng was a little angry, "Is it reasonable for you to let a girl who was stabbed six or seven times live in the corridor outside the toilet? It's so cold, she already lost a lot of blood, if the condition worsens."

"Pay the fee early!" The nurse rolled her eyes, "Pay the fee early, there is no reason for us to push her out."

Lu Cheng was dumbfounded for a moment.

With a rolling of his throat, he swallowed all the helplessness and helplessness into his stomach.

When Lu Cheng went to pay the medical expenses, the accountant looked at Ji Wei's list of medical expenses and said, "So far, the total cost is [-], and there will be treatment in the future. Let's pay [-] first."

Lu Cheng's hand holding the bank card trembled slightly.

Twenty thousand.

He has a total of twelve thousand in his hand.

"wait a minute."

Lu Cheng exited the payment hall, walked to a corner, bit his finger with his lips, feeling a little confused.

The twelve thousand is the tuition and living expenses for him and Lu Se.

If he paid the medical expenses for that girl, not only would he be penniless, but he would also owe eight thousand.

does it worth?
For a stranger, is it worth it?
Poverty tests Lu Cheng's conscience all the time.

Have you experienced the despair of life?

Lu Cheng has to experience it once in a while.

Some people have been in despair for a long time, and they will be completely beaten by life.There is also a small part of them who were knocked down, swallowed blood with their teeth in their stomachs, and would get back up again.

Lu Cheng fell down and got scared again and again, so many times that his teeth were almost knocked out.

He stood up suddenly, turned around and walked out.

The cold wind made Lu Cheng's face ache, as if the cold wind poured into a chapped wound was irritating.Lu Cheng walked more than ten meters away and stopped again.

He kicked on the tiles of the small flower bed beside him and cursed angrily: "You are an idiot! I'm going to starve to death, and I care about other people's life and death!" After cursing, Lu Cheng turned and walked back to the hospital hall.

He sat on the chair, hesitated again and again, picked up his cell phone and made a call.

beep --

"Who?"

An uncle's voice came through the receiver.

Lu Cheng: "Uncle Fang, it's me, Boy Lu."

Uncle Fang is the uncle who sells breakfast in Zhujiang Village. He used to be the most loyal suitor of Lu Cheng's mother. In the past few years after Hua Linglong's death, Uncle Fang has taken good care of Lu Cheng's siblings.

Lu Cheng really didn't know who to ask for help.

When Uncle Fang heard that it was Lu Cheng, he slowly sat up from the bed.He leaned against the head of the bed and asked Lu Cheng, "It's so late, what's the matter?"

Although it was hard to say, Lu Cheng still had the courage to talk to Uncle Fang, "Uncle Fang, can, can you lend me some money?"

Uncle Fang was taken aback.

He suddenly heard the sound of an ambulance coming from Lu Cheng's cell phone.

Uncle Fang hurriedly asked, "What's going on? Are you in the hospital? Are you sick? Or Lu Se?"

Lu Cheng said in a muffled voice, "No, I found a patient, she." Lu Cheng sighed, and then said, "If you don't pay the medical bills, she may die."

Uncle Fang fell silent.

Lu Cheng and Lu Se had no parents and were young. If they lent money to them, they might never get it back. Therefore, no one in the village would lend them money even though they knew that the Lu family brothers and sisters were living in poverty.

Uncle Fang also has a family, and his wife is in charge of his money. His wife's attitude towards Lu Cheng and Lu Se is a little cold, mainly because of Hua Linglong.

Before Uncle Fang got married, he had a crush on Hua Linglong, but that was also unrequited love.After getting married, Uncle Fang is still very law-abiding and treats his wife and children very well.

After thinking about it, he said, "Let me tell your aunt about this."

"it is good."

Lu Cheng gave up hope of borrowing money.

He and Lu Se are Hua Linglong's children, and my aunt never looked at them directly.Ever since Hua Linglong died, my aunt took pity on them, but never gave them cold eyes.

but borrow money
Looking at the lights of high-rise buildings in the distance, Lu Cheng felt that the world was really strange. Some people were very rich, and some people lived in bridge holes for their living.It's really a wealthy family's wine and meat stinks. There are frozen bones on the road.

But Lu Cheng told himself again: [The money of the rich is not brought by strong winds, the rich also become rich from the poor. 】

Comforting himself like this, Lu Cheng felt no resentment in his heart.
