Although Qinan county was not big..,
It was not something a small town could compare to,
The county hospital was bustling with people everywhere. After Gu Dong was sent here, he was directly pushed into the operating room.
The Ai Cao was pushed by a nurse and asked to pay the bill.
The hall was bustling with people,
An unfamiliar environment, as well as all kinds of unfamiliar things,
All of this..,
Made the Ai Cao feel uneasy. Not only was it very different from her own Ai Zhi's memory, even the original Ai Cao's memory did not have some things.
On the way here, when she had just boarded the bus..,
She was only worried about Gu Dong..,
She only realized halfway through the journey that this was a bus..,
It was a car that could run without a horse.
She was already uneasy when she inexplicably came to a strange world. After that, in Xinglin village, she was familiar with the original owner's memory. Then, she came to the Gu family..,
Although Gu Dong would tease her, he would also protect her, whether it was in the village or in life,
He would rush to the front, and the Ai Cao gradually liked to hide behind him.
When they were in the town hospital..,
Although the Ai Cao had never experienced it..,
At that time, there was Fu Jiu, Fu Qiang, Duan Xue, and the villagers by her side..,
So even if she was flustered and uneasy..,
She was worried that something would happen to Gu Dong, so that she would not be too lonely and helpless.
But now it was different. In an unfamiliar county city, the old doctor who had sent them here followed Gu Dong into the operating room with the other doctors. The young doctor took the letter from the hospital and went to handle the handover.
Now, only the Ai Cao was left in the lively hospital hall. Before the nurse left, she expressionlessly urged her to go through the hospitalization procedures and pay the bill.
Where to go through the hospitalization procedures? Where to pay the bill? How much did it cost? The Ai Cao did not know any of this.
Xinglin village was already different from the world she was familiar with. Now, everything she saw was beyond her understanding.
Panic and confusion only lasted for a moment. Although this "novel world" had a huge impact on the Ai Cao, she didn't have the time to think about these things. She could only force herself to quickly adapt and understand.
Gu Dong was still in danger. When he was not around, she had to be able to shoulder everything. Like him, she had to be able to stand in front of her when she needed it.
The Ai Cao asked a few people and finally found out where to go to settle the hospitalization procedures and pay the hospital fees. Fortunately, the fees were not high. When he was in the town's hospital for seven to eight days, he only spent about ten yuan.
This time, she was hospitalized. She had to call the fifteenth, and this was not including the subsequent medical fees. The medical fees would have to be paid later on to see what kind of medicine she needed.
His family had only received a total of 30 yuan from the autumn harvest, and he had almost used it all up after paying two fees.
After going to the village hospital once, the Ai Cao knew that 15 RMB was just the beginning. Hospitalization and medication would be the biggest expense in the future.
Although he had asked someone to ask Fu Jiu to help him borrow money and bring it over, Ai Cao wasn't sure how much money he could borrow.
Not to mention one or two yuan, even if it was one or two yuan, which family in the village didn't care about it? It wasn't easy to borrow money these days.
After the autumn harvest, the families who had collapsed started to fill the hole. Those whose children were of age also started to prepare betrothal gifts and dowry for their children while they still had money. In addition, some families who lacked something at home also started to plan how many things they could buy with the money they had.
In all honesty, not many families in the village had extra money.
The Ai Cao wasn't sure how much money Fu Jiu could bring.
Especially after Gu Dong was pushed out of the operating room and transferred to the ward, the Ai Cao was extremely panicked when the nurse told her to pay the second fee.
In ancient times, there were doctors who didn't treat patients or take medicine because they didn't have money. She had heard of these doctors before, but at that time, she was rich and didn't feel too deeply about it. But now, she really felt the importance of money.
After paying the medical fees again, the Ai Cao only had 80 RMB left.
However, while Gu Dong was unconscious, she went to the shop next to the hospital and took the hospitalization certificate to buy towels, basins, cups, and other things that Gu Dong would need when he woke up.
The shop was much more complete than what the Ai Cao had imagined. There were even insulated lunch boxes and water bottles. But she only took a quick glance.
She used the money she had left to buy as many things that Gu Dong could use and the cheapest things.
When she returned to the ward, Gu Dong hadn't woken up yet, but he was frowning. He didn't sleep well. The room they were in now was less than 20 square meters. There were five beds, and there were people lying on each bed. There were people standing around in the remaining space.
There were people chatting, scolding children, coaxing children, snoring, and all kinds of activities. It was extremely noisy.
The Ai Cao frowned. She didn't think that such conditions were suitable for Gu Dong to recuperate. But the reality was that they could only afford to stay in such a ward.
If they didn't have money to pay the medical fees, they couldn't even afford to stay in such a ward.
