My courtyard shelter

At ten o'clock in the morning, Xu Dong was browsing his phone leisurely in the office with a cup of ginseng tea in front of him, when he suddenly received a call from his wife. Read М

Yang Lina's voice was anxious.

"Wife, what's wrong?"

"Hubby, Mom went out to buy groceries this morning and hasn't come back yet. She usually goes out for an hour at most. Don't let anything happen?"

Xu Dong's heart suddenly tightened, and even the teacup was knocked over. He didn't bother to clean up the table. He hurriedly asked:

"When did Mom go out?"

"About a little after eight o'clock. As soon as you left, Mom drove out."

It's been almost two hours, which is indeed a bit unusual.

"Did you call Mom's mobile phone?" Xu Dong asked.

"Mom didn't bring her mobile phone this morning." Yang Lina said helplessly.

Young people today can't live without mobile phones, while the elderly are more accustomed to using mobile phones as landlines.

"Have you called Auntie Wang to ask if Mom is with her?"

"I called and asked in their group, but no one has seen Mom."

"Don't worry, I'll ask someone."

Yang Lina urged, "Hurry up, if there's no news, I'll go to the police station and call the police."

After hanging up the phone, Xu Dong immediately opened the rotation class group on WeChat and asked the police stations near their home one by one.

In less than ten minutes, a group member sent him a photo, and he recognized the white old scooter in the photo at a glance. It was the gift he gave to his mother.

However, the current state of the car is a bit bad. The whole car flipped over on the side of the road, and there were obvious scratches on the body of the car. It was obvious that there was a traffic accident.

Knowing that things were bad, Xu Dong couldn't sit still and immediately called the group member back.

"Hey, Lao Qin, where did you get the photo?"

Lao Qin said without further ado: "There was a minor car accident near your home this morning, and this is the photo of the scene."

"My mother's car is hers, how is she?"

Xu Dong was completely panicked. Although life was hard in his previous life, his mother at least made it to the end. It doesn't make sense that after rebirth, his mother would live worse than in the previous life.

"Don't worry, Lao Xu, Auntie is not in danger of life for the time being, but she has a broken leg. She is currently receiving treatment at Chui Liu Hospital. I will send you the detailed address later."

"Thank... Thank you Lao Qin, I... I don't know what to say..." Xu Dong said incoherently.

"What are you thanking me for? I'll tell you later if you have anything to say. You should go to the hospital quickly!"

After receiving the address, Xu Dong immediately sent the address to his wife, who was closer.

At the same time, he did not forget to tell his father the news. When Xu's father heard it, he didn't even bother to hold a meeting and immediately asked Xiao Zhang to take him to the hospital.

...

Yang Lina arrived at the hospital first.

Xu's mother had just come out of the emergency room and was still in a coma. She hurried forward and asked, "Doctor, how is my mother-in-law? When will she wake up?"

"The patient has a fractured left leg and has been treated simply. It's not a big deal for now. She will wake up in an hour or two. Don't worry."

"Thank you, doctor."

"You're welcome. In addition, the patient's medical expenses have not been paid yet. You should pay them as soon as possible to avoid delaying follow-up treatment." The attending doctor reminded.

Since the state of emergency was entered, the above has suspended universal health insurance, which is really not enough to cover expenses.

Of course, it doesn't mean that it will be suspended completely. Minors under the age of sixteen can still enjoy medical insurance services and don't have to pay medical insurance premiums.

As for other people, they can only pray for themselves.

"Doctor, don't worry, I'll go to pay now."

Yang Lina went downstairs to pay the money after she finished speaking. She also has a bank account with tens of thousands of yuan left in it, which is more than enough to deal with it temporarily.

After paying the medical bills, I happened to meet the young-looking perpetrator. He was sweating and holding two bundles of money in his hand, which should have just been withdrawn from the bank.

Yang Lina didn't give him a good look.

Ten minutes later, Xu Dong and his father arrived at the hospital almost at the same time. After Yang Lina received them, she quickly took them to the ward.

The perpetrator was also there, and he kept saying sorry.

"It's all my fault. I got up late in the morning. I shouldn't have ridden so fast."

The young man had no choice. This matter was not big, but it was not small either. If the family insisted on pursuing responsibility, he might really have to go to jail.

Going to jail at this time, that taste, it's scary to think about it.

And if there is a criminal record in the personal file, it will not only be difficult to find a job in the future, but even the public rental housing may be taken back. That's simply a nightmare.

Xu Dong also didn't give him a good look. Only Xu's father patted the young man on the shoulder and told him to be patient.

They had almost figured out what happened. The young man was one of the victims, and the culprit was the thief who stole the manhole cover.

"How is Mom?"

"The doctor said that Mom will not wake up for another hour or two, and she should be fine for the time being." Yang Lina introduced.

Xu Dong finally breathed a sigh of relief: "It's almost 11:30, you go back and make lunch, Dad and I will stay here."

"Okay, I'll go back first, call me when Mom wakes up."

In any case, the whole family needs to eat. It doesn't matter if the adults go hungry, but the children can't, and the patients also need to eat!

"Okay, Xiao Zhang is still downstairs, let him take you home!" Xu Dong nodded.

After Yang Lina left, the father and son found the attending doctor again and asked about the specific injuries and the time of surgery.

Xu Ma's condition is a closed fracture, with bruises and swelling in the calf. Surgery can only be performed after the swelling of the fracture ends subsides.

According to the doctor, it usually takes about half a month, plus postoperative recovery, and at least one month in the hospital.

After all, there is a general lack of nutritional supplements at the moment, and the recovery time of patients is generally delayed.

After twelve o'clock in the afternoon, Xu Ma finally woke up.

Xu Dong tried to squeeze out a smile.

"Mom, are you awake?"

"Old Third, where is Mom?" Xu Ma wanted to sit up after she finished speaking.

Xu Dong hurried forward and held the other party: "Mom, don't move, this is a hospital."

"Hiss, what's wrong with me, why do I hurt all over?"

"Old woman, you were in a car accident."

"Mom, you forgot that when you went out to buy vegetables this morning, you were hit by someone, and now your calf is broken." Xu Dong said bitterly.

Mother Xu endured the pain and recalled it carefully.

"Ah, I remember it now. I don't know which bastard stole the manhole cover. My car flipped over. Later, I didn't know who hit me. I don't know what happened next."

"Auntie, I'm sorry. I accidentally hit you." The young man hurried forward to apologize.

Mother Xu hurriedly asked for the details.

After learning about what happened, Mother Xu sighed: "Young man, you can't be blamed for this. When we catch the manhole cover thief, let him pay for your medical expenses."
