I live in the countryside

Chapter 12 stubborn temper

After she returned to Qiao Churan's rental house, she immediately called Qiao Zongming back to the village. Qiao Zongming hesitated for a while when he heard the news. He wanted to have an operation, but felt that it would cost too much. hurt.

Both of the husband and wife are educated in primary school. They have worked hard all their lives and sent a few children to school. In addition, both of them are not in good health and have not saved much money. Such a large expense, no matter what, is distressed. of.

What's more, diseases that hurt muscles and bones are all diseases that burn money, and the medicine can't be stopped.

But Qiao Zongming went out to do construction in his early years. Although he is dull, he has more experience and understands that back injury is a big deal: "Why don't you ask the doctor if there is no other way, can you prescribe medicine first to relieve it?"

Chen Mei didn't think too much about it: "Then why don't we go back and find the old Chinese doctor? Before I came, I heard from her fifth aunt that there was an old Chinese doctor in Dongshui Town, and the medicine he prescribed was good. Several women’s waist injuries went to him to get medicine to heal them, so I wondered if it didn’t work, so I went back and went to Dongshui Town to have a look.”

When Chen Mei said this, Qiao Zongming also hesitated, but he still insisted: "Anyway, I'm going to the provincial capital, let Ranran go to the hospital to see, if the doctor has other medicines, try it, try a few more The method is also good."

Chen Mei didn't quite listen to what her daughter said, and felt that Qiao Churan was just tossing around, but Chen Mei listened to what Qiao Zongming said, hesitated for a moment, and agreed, Qiao Zongming said directly: "You call Qiao Churan, I will tell you she said."

Qiao Churan had been paying attention to Chen Mei's phone calls, and when she heard Chen Mei say that Qiao Zongming wanted to call her, she immediately went over.

She originally wanted to have a good relationship with Qiao Zongming and Chen Ming, and Chen Mei's waist was terribly dragged, but knowing that her father was not very educated and simple and honest, she was afraid that he would worry too much, so in the end she didn't say anything in the most important direction, and just tried to use what he could Persuade him to let Chen Mei have the operation with understandable words.

After talking for half an hour, Qiao Churan hung up the phone.

Looking at Chen Mei's uncooperative attitude, Qiao Churan pressed her eyebrows: "Forget it, Mom, don't think too much, I'll make an appointment with the doctor, and I'll see you the day after tomorrow."

In any case, my mother must have surgery.

Chen Mei didn't know her daughter's determination, and repeatedly emphasized that it was impossible for her to undergo surgery, and at most she would go back to the hospital to get some medicine to try.

Qiao Churan didn't say anything, but she didn't say no, she vaguely agreed, and Chen Mei agreed.

In the evening, she left Chen Mei at home and made an appointment with Gao Tingting to have supper.

Near her rental house, there is a night market street, which is very lively. When she was in the provincial capital, she often made appointments with Gao Tingting here to tease snails, eat fried noodles, and eat barbecue.

This time was the same, the two had barbecue in one hand and beer in the other, and they ate heartily.

Gao Tingting heard about Qiao Churan taking Chen Mei back to the hospital, and sighed: "Our parents' generation was like this. Tell me, my family is financially well off, and my mother does it every time." , I am reluctant to go to the hospital when I am sick, and I refuse to do things that cost a little more money, let alone auntie?"

Qiao Churan was helpless: "I don't even know what to do."

"Auntie is just afraid that you will run out of your savings. Don't you still have a younger sister? Are you married? You are well married, and you sisters will share the burden together. Auntie shouldn't be so objectionable, right?"

Qiao Churan remembered calling Qiao Yuzhu today, explaining the doctor's situation to her, and asking her to persuade Chen Mei to have an operation. Qiao Yuzhu hesitated, meaning that she didn't want to share the medical expenses. Anyway, my parents still have some money. Money, plus Qiao Churan's additions, won't be enough.

No matter how bad it is, it's not impossible to borrow some from your aunt or uncle's uncle.

When Qiao Churan thought of this, she felt upset.

Seeing that she was silent, Gao Tingting knew what was going on. She didn't know much about the affairs of Qiao Churan's family, but every family had their own hard-to-read scriptures, and things related to money were the same. She could guess it too. come out.

She sighed and poured another glass of beer for Qiao Churan.

Then, Gao Tingting seemed to think of something, and continued to complain: "For our parents' generation, what our children say is sometimes not as good as TV commercials and exaggerated headlines. They believe in TV commercials and believe in Don’t believe what we say in the news.”

Qiao Churan feels the same way. Chen Mei and Qiao Zongming are like this. Sometimes when they see some news on TV, anyone who has something to do with the provincial capital will call her to be careful, just like a few years ago when they mistrusted the news. Regarding the radiation protection of iodized salt, the family was willing to spend money to buy half a sack of iodized salt, and would not listen to it.

Qiao Churan laughed helplessly.

Gao Tingting comforted: "But then again, are you really not going back to the provincial capital?"

Qiao Churan glanced at her friend: "Didn't it be agreed earlier, and you still ask?"

Gao Tingting was frustrated: "I thought you would change your mind after you go home this time."

Qiao Churan shook his head.

Gao Tingting murmured, "I really don't know what to say about you. You are a student of economics and management, and you went back to grow fruit. The two years of hard work in the provincial capital have been in vain?"

"Why is it a waste of time?" Qiao Churan said with a smile: "Isn't everyone happy to go back to their hometown to start a business now? I'm going back to my hometown to start a business. Hey, can you support me?"

Qiao Churan had told Gao Tingting about this a long time ago, and Gao Tingting also knew what Qiao Churan was thinking. She wanted to go back to her hometown to develop. First, she could take care of her parents nearby and reduce their burden. She doesn't like big cities very much. She was studying at Beicheng University and hadn't graduated yet. Several big companies in Beicheng wanted her, but she still returned to the provincial capital of Guangxi Province. It seems that she really doesn't like the fast pace of first-tier metropolises. .

Gao Tingting feels that Qiao Churan is actually a very contradictory person. She was the one who worked the hardest when she was in school. She received scholarships every year and was very considerate in dealing with others. Treat yourself as a guest of this city, ready to leave at any time.

Knowing that it's useless to talk about it, she resigned and returned to her hometown, and she was under a lot of pressure. She smiled and said: "Okay, good sister's career, I don't support anyone who supports it. Qingxi has good mountains and rivers, and the soil can be turned into money, not to mention Qiao Ranran is so good. sharp!"

Even if the development is not good at that time, it's time to go back to the provincial capital. Qiao Churan's ability is there. Once the resume is released, I don't know how many companies want her. Is there any obstacle that can't be overcome?

Qiao Churan was amused by Gao Tingting, raised his glass and drank the wine: "Then wish me every success, wish me success, and get rich next year!"

"Getting higher and higher! Get rich overnight!" Gao Tingting laughed heartily.
