Chapter 62
A group of four yellow buses stopped on the road in front of the hospital.
Su Chunjun’s car parked in the front, he got off the car and quickly walked to the back of the car in order to help the ladies down, leading them to stand on the sidewalk, and then go back to calculate the fare with the driver of the yellow car, do not want to yellow car driver laughed and said: “Su Branch members ride, which dare to charge money Oh!
The yellow car driver said with a smile, “Which one dares to collect the money?
Su Chunjun laughed and took out a large foreign currency, and shoved it into their hands: “What you earn is hard money, take it.”
After he left, a few cart drivers split the money and had the leisure to talk about him.
“I thought he was a cheapskate, I heard that he was always on credit at Liu Da Meat’s butcher store, how come he is willing to pay us?”
“How can we be as rich as Liu the butcher?”
“That’s because he thinks we’re poor and doesn’t take advantage of us.”
A few people parked the car on the side of the road, squatting while smoking cigarettes and laughing, see someone parked on the side of the road to call a car will immediately stand up, put out the cigarettes into his pocket, pulling the car and smilingly greeted the past: “Mr., take a car?”
The hospital hall is always full of people, it is a place where there is no shortage of business at any time.
Yang Yuyan had once lived in this hospital for half a year, but had never seen this place before.
She looked around curiously, Zhu Yanshu shouted for Yang Yucan to pull her back, “Don’t ask your sister to run away and get lost again.”
Only then did Yang Yuyan put away her curious gaze and followed her sister closely, unable to hold back her curiosity as she asked, “Where is this place? Why haven’t I been here before?”
She didn’t seem to be leaving from here when she was discharged from the hospital.
Yang Yu Cicada: “You’re staying in a ward, this is an outpatient clinic.”
Yang Yuyan: “Then it should also be a gate.”
When she hasn’t been to a hospital before? No matter where you live, you should always walk through the same gate, right?
Yang Yu Cicada where in the mood to play question and answer games with her now, said, “Don’t ask blindly.” And ignored people.
Su Chunjun understood what Yang Yuyan meant, because he had made the same mistake when he first came to the hospital to seek medical treatment himself.
He took the opportunity to lead Yang Yuyan over to him and whispered to her, “This is a place for patients who are not hospitalized. The ward where you are hospitalized is in the back, with another door and passageway.”
To put it bluntly, it is the ordinary area and the VIP area, divided into those who can afford to pay and those who can’t afford to pay to go through different passages.
Yang Yuyan then understood.
Su Chunjun went on to say, “There are several gates to the hospital, at least three, and some of the larger hospitals have even more hidden passages. Because there are still a lot of people who don’t accept Western medicine, saying that they will cut people with knives as witch doctors, for the safety of the hospital is necessary to prepare a few more doors. There are also some people who don’t want to go the same way as ordinary people, and this doorway is very inconvenient for passing cars.”
He used to go to the hospital by automobile, and waited until he first walked to the hospital on his own legs to appreciate these differences. Later, out of curiosity, he studied a lot about hospitals, and also knew who built the first western hospital and other such useless knowledge, but now it was useful to tease Yang Yuyan.
Yang Yuyan really wanted to hear about it, she guessed, “Was it built by a foreigner?”
Su Chunjun: “It was an American missionary in Guangzhou. The first Western medical hospital built by the Chinese themselves was in Beijing.”
But this hospital before them was built by the Japanese.
But there were not only Japanese doctors in this hospital, there were also many white doctors.
There was not only this Western medical hospital in the city; there was also a church hospital. But it was more convenient for ordinary people to go to the drugstore on the street for their usual medical care.
She chatted with Ms. Su in the back, while Yang Yucan was in charge of leading the way in the front, and she had been here more than once.
But this time, she couldn’t find the Ma Tianbao family.
She couldn’t find them even after looking over from bed to bed in that ward, and she didn’t find them even after looking back and forth three times in the entire ward.
Zhu Yan Shu said angrily, “Is it here or not?”
Yang Yucan was so anxious that her nose was sweating, “Yes, it’s here!”
Su Chunjun said, “Better ask the nurse.”
As a result, the nurse said, “Ma Tianbao? The father and son who both suffered clubbing injuries? They left a long time ago. They didn’t have the money to stay on, at first they moved out from the ward and lived in the stairwell, then they even lived in the back alley of the hospital for a few days, and now they’ve long since run away to nowhere.”
This is also too miserable.
Zhu Yanshu couldn’t imagine that it would be like this, and seeing that Yang Yucan’s tears instantly fell, he pulled her to the back, and she went up and asked, “I remember wasn’t it a male gentleman who sent them here? Did that gentleman not pay them again?”
Yang Yu Cicada also listened anxiously.
Nurse: “Oh, that gentleman did come twice, but he gave the money to that family’s son, who had milder symptoms. That male son didn’t come back to give the money again in the end, and they probably didn’t have enough money.”
When the nurse said that, she kept looking at Yang Yucan, it seemed like she had some impression of her as well, but when she saw Yang Yucan’s tears she shrewdly didn’t ask any questions that would cause embarrassment.
Zhu Yan Shu felt that things were getting worse and worse now, originally Yang Yucan had already figured it out, but now once the Ma family was in trouble, she definitely couldn’t let go.
She immediately made up her mind and comforted Yang Yucan, “Don’t worry, let’s ask around first, we can definitely find them.” She said to Su Chunjun, “The Ma family left the hospital, so they should be out of money. But the disease can’t be left untreated, other than that, that disease of his father can’t be left without medicine. The way I see it, it’s possible that they went to see the sitting doctor at the Chinese Medicine Hall.”
Su Chunjun immediately said, “What you said makes sense, then I’ll go outside to inquire about the Chinese medicine hall, you guys wait here for a while, I’ll be back soon.”
Yang Yuyan: “Where are you going to inquire now? Should we go home first and wait to ask around from somewhere else before we go to the pharmacy, or else there could be Chinese medicine halls all over this city.”
Su Chunjun: “It’s fine, there are a few behind the hospital.”
The poor can’t afford to visit the western hospital and take foreign medicines, so they can only take a little bit of cheap medicines, so there will definitely be a few Chinese medicine halls in the neighborhood of the western hospital.
The Zhu family mother and daughter three then waited in the hospital lobby, the nurse saw that they were having a hard time, and specially brought a few chairs for them.
Yang Yu Cicada had calmed down by now, she saw that her mother and sister were anxious for her, and even more so, she felt that she had caused too much trouble for everyone.
“How much money have you given him? Enough to keep him in the hospital for how long?” Zhu Yanshu asked Yang Yucan.
“Both donations were more than thirty dollars, totaling more than seventy dollars. I added more than twenty dollars myself and gave him about a hundred.” Yang Yucan said.
Zhu Yanshu calculated the account, “A hundred dollars saved is enough for him to live until the end of the year. Why did he spend it so quickly? Does he want to save it for later?”
“Mom, I’m fine.” She said to Zhu Yanshu, “You take Yan Yan back first. I’m going to look for Teacher Su, no need to inquire first, I’ll go to the school and ask my classmates to see if any of them know.”
Zhu Yan Shu frowned, “Save me some trouble. Have you forgotten that people in school are still gossiping about you right now?”
Yang Yu Cicada shook her head and said, “Not everyone believes those words. I have a few close classmates whose character can be trusted and won’t believe the rumors.”
Zhu Yanshu hesitated for a moment before nodding, “Alright then, you can go back and ask to see where Ma Tianbao’s family moved to, if they lack money for medical treatment, we can subsidize them a little.”
Yang Yu Cicada’s lips trembled, she wanted to help Ma Tianbao’s family, but she didn’t have the ability to do so, just like when she bought so many books in school to help the book club, it was all because her family was behind her.
She didn’t understand this at the time and caused a lot of trouble for her family.
Now that she understands this, she still wants to cause trouble for her family.
Zhu Yan Shu gently held her hand and said, “As long as I can make you feel at ease, I don’t care. What’s mom’s is yours, there’s no need to be polite with me.”
Yang Yu Cicada lowered her head, and several drops of water trails fell onto her jacket.
“I’m sorry ……”
She said in a shaky voice.
At this time a woman passed by them with a startled glance and hurriedly left.
Not long after, an acquaintance came over, also very surprised, he walked over and greeted Zhu Yanshu politely, “Ms. Zhu, how are you.”
The Zhu family mother and daughter trio looked up, except for Yang Yu Cicada who didn’t recognize him, Zhu Yanshu and Yang Yu Yan both recognized him.
This person was none other than the Jin family’s subordinate, whose father was the grandson of Master Jin’s close confidant, Sun Zhao.
Zhu Yanshu did not get up and nodded his head in response, “Mr. Sun, what a surprise to see you here.”
Sun Zhao: “Are you here to see a doctor?”
Zhu Yanshu: “I came to visit a friend. Please make yourself at home if Mr. Sun is busy.”
Sun Zhao again is the tongue Lingli also were blocked back, he did not dare to bully, really Ms. Zhu although people poor, but the Zhu family reputation, the Jin family is also a businessman, today the Zhu family defeat, the Jin family bullied up, the other day if the Jin family is also defeated it? Business people are looking at it, the Jin family bully others okay, bullying the same business Zhu family descendants, owe a point of reason.
Last time he looked down on the Zhu family, and then was taught a hard lesson, the golden old man used to be valued him, after that time also said that he still need to practice again, his father also hand hard to whip him a meal, he himself is also regretted.
Since then, he never dared to underestimate anyone.
He saw Zhu Yanshu not willing to take care of him, stood for a while, can only go.
Zhu Yanshu didn’t want to talk more.
She felt that she had nothing to say to a little shrimp like Sun Zhao.
Sun Zhao obviously did not know what was the reason for coming to inquire about the situation, but Zhu Yanshu how to think that Ma Tianbao’s family’s matter is not so much that it will make the Golden Mansion so tense, a family of subordinates that have been kicked out, even if they have been beaten up, and then sent to the hospital afterward, and did not lose their lives. Even if the Ma family went to the police station and complained, the most they could do was to make the Golden Mansion pay out some money, and maybe even suffer more.
Since it wasn’t for the Ma family, then why?
Sun Zhao’s appearance at the hospital was also strange.
Is someone in the Jin family sick? In the hospital?
Zhu Yanshu stood up after dismissing Sun Zhao and called Yang Yucan and Yang Yuyan, “Let’s go back first.”
Yang Yuyan hurriedly said, “Mr. Su is still asking around outside!”
Zhu Yanshu: “He will naturally go back if he can’t find us in the hospital.”
Yang Yuyan refused, she wanted to stay and wait by herself, Zhu Yanshu pinched her on the arm and dismissed the idea, so she had to leave a note for the nurse, asking her to give it to Su Chunjun when she arrived.
Zhu Yanshu pulled an unconscious daughter with one hand, went out and got in the car and went back to the Zhu family building.
Zhang Ma was not at home, she went to the vegetable market.
As soon as Zhu Yanshu entered, she took off her jacket and shawl and went to make a phone call, she wanted to find out if something had happened to the Golden Mansion during the New Year.
When the phone was dialed, she turned her head to see her two foolish daughters still standing in the living room, and said in anger: “All go back to your houses! No one is allowed to come out until dinner!”
Yang Yuyan still wanted to hear who Zhu Yanshu’s phone call was to, seeing her own mother angry, she immediately slipped back into the house, still wanting to leave a crack, a reprimand followed: “Close the door properly! I’ll spank whoever dares to eavesdrop!”
She hurriedly closed the door tightly, turned around the house a few times, ran to the window and pushed the window open, sat in front of the window and looked out at the street, waiting for Mr. Su to come back.
This wait was more than an hour.
She didn’t wait for Mr. Su, but she waited for Zhang Ma.
Zhang Ma pushed open the door, and as soon as she saw Zhu Yanshu wearing the cheongsam that she had left the house in, with the high heels on her feet that she hadn’t changed out of, and sitting on the sofa chair with her brows slightly furrowed as she made a phone call, she knew that there was definitely something wrong.
She gently carried the dishes back to the kitchen, while cooking and listening to the movement outside with her ears perked up, seeing Zhu Yanshu hang up the phone she hurriedly came out and asked, “Madam, what happened?”
Zhu Yanshu brushes open the fan, huffing and puffing, this moment of effort she made a few phone calls and broke out in a sweat.
She organized her thoughts and said, “I’m only afraid that something has happened to the Golden Mansion again. We went to the hospital today to see Ma Tianbao’s family, only to realize that they have already left the hospital, the nurse said that there is no money for treatment. The Wang Gongzi who used to send money to Ma Tianbao has stopped giving them money. Also, we ran into another person from the Golden Mansion at the hospital. The strange thing is that he was also at the hospital, I don’t know why.”
Zhang Ma said, “Is someone from the Jin family sick? Is it Master Jin or Mrs. Jin, or is he sick from being angry about what happened to Miss Jin last time?”
Zhu Yan Shu brushes away her fan and lowers her voice, “The strangest thing is that on the fifteenth day of the first month, the Jin Mansion also hosted a banquet, inviting many guests, as well as the Japanese. At the banquet, Master Jin and Mrs. Jin both entertained the guests well. I asked around and didn’t hear that anything happened at the banquet.”
Her eyes rolled a few times and she exchanged a knowing look with Zhang Ma.
Zhang Ma spoke the words out for her, “Is it …… that Miss Jin had another accident?”
