"Alright, Xiaobei, drive to the hospital." Zhao Xiangqin said to Liu Xiaobei.
Liu Xiaobei was well aware that Meng Hongjuan had nothing else to do. He nodded his head and drove the tricycle towards the town's hospital.
When they arrived at the town's hospital, the three of them helped Liu Dahai out of the car and into the hospital.
Zhao Xiangqin said with a headache, "Where should we go to see this?"
She had never been out of the house before, so she was at a loss when she came to this kind of place.
"Auntie, Uncle Dahai, this is an external injury. We should go to the surgery department and find a surgeon." Meng Hongjuan said.
"Aiyaya, Hongjuan, it was right for you to follow me today. You young people have seen the world." Zhao Xiangqin said gratefully to Meng Hongjuan.
"Auntie, help Uncle. There's a wheelchair over there. I'll push it over and push Uncle to see the doctor." Now that there was a place for Meng Hongjuan, she was even more proactive. She spoke to Zhao Xiangqin and then pushed a wheelchair over for Liu Dahai to sit in.
"That's a good idea." Zhao Xiangqin said happily.
Liu Dahai also said happily, "Aiya, Hongjuan is still the best. This way, I won't have to walk in so much pain."
"You two don't have to worry. I'm here today, and I don't have anything urgent to do. I'll go out after I help you settle down." Meng Hongjuan said as she looked at Liu Xiaobei from time to time.
Liu Xiaobei became a bystander as he walked around. He had never been to such a place before, so he didn't know what to do.
She was quite grateful to Meng Hongjuan for this situation. If it wasn't for her, she wouldn't know how to deal with this situation.
When he saw that Meng Hongjuan was looking at him, he nodded gratefully. Meng Hongjuan wrinkled her nose at him.
That cute look made Liu Xiaobei's impression of Meng Hongjuan increase a little.
Meng Hongjuan pushed Liu Dahai to the surgical consultation room. There were two patients there, and a few people were waiting at the side.
After waiting for the two patients to leave, they pushed Liu Dahai to the doctor.
The surgeon looked to be in his forties. He asked Liu Dahai for a while, then wrote out a few lists and said, "First, go take a B-scan, then take an X-ray, then come over and let me see."
Zhao Xiangqin took the bill, glanced at it, and asked the doctor, "Doctor, how much does it cost?"
"Not much, less than two hundred dollars," the doctor said.
Zhao Xiangqin's hands trembled. It was obvious that she was distressed by the money.
Liu Dahai also said, "It's so expensive. Let's not see it for now. Let's go home and recuperate. It's so expensive to see a doctor, we can't afford it."
"How can that be, Uncle? If you're sick, you have to see it. Your health is important." Meng Hongjuan consoled him from the side.
"That's right, this old man has been taking care of me for so many days, and I still haven't recovered. Since I'm here, don't worry about money." Zhao Xiangqin also said, then looked at Meng Hongjuan and asked for help: "Hongjuan, what should we do next?"
"Go pay the fee first, then go take an X-ray and do an ultrasound. When my mother was sick in the past, I accompanied her to the hospital, so I know all about this." As Meng Hongjuan spoke, she pushed Zhao Da Hai to the place to pay the fee, then went to take an X-ray and an ultrasound …
It took more than an hour to finish.
Finally, she showed the result to the doctor. The doctor looked at it and said, "It's not a big problem. It's just a sprained lumbar muscle. If you want to get better quickly, you can stay here for a few days."
"Okay, okay, okay." Zhao Xiangqin quickly agreed.
The doctor wrote another bill and gave it to them. He said, "Go pay the fee, then come back. I'll give the patient an acupuncture."
Zhao Xiangqin took the bill and asked with trembling hands, "How much is this?"
"30 yuan, not much," the doctor said.
"It's okay, it's okay." When she heard that it was 30 yuan, Zhao Xiangqin was relieved. She took out the money and gave Meng Hongjuan 30 yuan. She said, "Daughter, go and pay for my aunt."
Meng Hongjuan nodded and went to pay the fee.
When she came back, she gave the doctor a note. The doctor said to them, "Help the patient to the bed and lie down. I'll give him an acupuncture."
The few of them quickly helped Liu Dahai to the bed at the side.
At this time, Meng Hongjuan asked, "Doctor, how long does it take to do the acupuncture?"
"Two hours," the doctor said.
Meng Hongjuan nodded and looked at Zhao Xiangqin. She said, "Auntie, I'll go out for a while. I'll be back soon."
"Okay, okay. Daughter, thank you so much for today. You can go now. It's okay to walk around for a while. We'll wait for you," Zhao Xiangqin said.
Meng Hongjuan nodded and went out.
Liu Xiaobei watched her go out thoughtfully. He also said to Zhao Xiangqin, "Godmother, there's nothing to do here. I'll go out and walk around. I'll be back soon."
"Okay, you can go too. Godmother is here," Zhao Xiangqin said.
Liu Xiaobei nodded, turned around, and left. Just as he reached the courtyard, his phone rang with a message notification.
Liu Xiaobei took it out and opened it. It was a message from Meng Hongjuan. It said, "Xiaobei, come out and walk around with your sister-in-law. I'm waiting for you at the door. Turn left at the door for more than 100 meters."
Liu Xiaobei thought for a moment and typed a string of words, "Okay, sister-in-law Hongjuan, I'll be there right away."
Then he sent it.
He put the phone in his pocket, lit a cigarette, and rushed to the place Meng Hongjuan said.
After going out of the door and turning left, he saw Meng Hongjuan in the distance. He walked over. When he was about to walk to Meng Hongjuan, he said, "Sister-in-law, is there any fun place these days?"
"It doesn't matter. It's good to have you accompany my sister-in-law," Meng Hongjuan said. Then she thought of something and said, "Go shopping with me."
"Okay." Liu Xiaobei nodded and said.
Meng Hongjuan twisted the message to lead the way, and Liu Xiaobei followed her.
After walking for a while, Meng Hongjuan slowed down and looked back at Liu Xiaobei. She said, "Xiaobei, have you ever seen a movie?"
"I've seen a movie. Isn't it often shown on TV?" Liu Xiaobei said in surprise.
"I mean, have you ever seen a movie in the cinema?" Meng Hongjuan said.
"No, I don't have the money to go to the cinema," Liu Xiaobei said with a wry smile.
"Then, sister-in-law, why don't I treat you to a movie?" Meng Hongjuan said.
"But there's no cinema in town," Liu Xiaobei said.
"Let's go to the county town. It's very fast to drive from the town to the county town. It's only 20 minutes. The road here is different from the road in our village. The road here is asphalt. It's very easy to walk," Meng Hongjuan said.
