Chapter 15 Medical Expenses
The old lady looked at Qiao Nian with a hesitant look on her face: "I'm thinking about going back to my hometown in Jiangnan. My body is just like this. It's not a problem to lie in the hospital all the time. It's also a drag on you!"
"Grandma!" Qiao Nian frowned, "Your legs haven't healed yet, and your body needs regular check-ups. City B has the best medical resources. What should you do if something happens to you back home!"
"What's the matter? My body is just like this!" The old man kept saying these words over and over again, "I just miss home. Your aunt can take care of me when I go back. If I stay here, I will only become a burden to you!"
She knew that she would have to spend money to lie here every day, and it would also cost money to hire a caregiver. The Qiao family would not look good on Qiao Nian, and she did not want to be Qiao Nian's scapegoat.
"You are not a burden to me!" Qiao Nian was a little anxious when she said that, "Grandma, I have money. I got a first-class scholarship this semester. I also make a lot of money from part-time work. I will graduate in one year.
I will find a good job when the time comes, and supporting you will not be a problem!"
The old lady was very pleased by what she said. She patted her hand and said with a smile, "I know you are very capable!"
"Then you can rest assured and take care of yourself here. I will definitely heal your leg!" Qiao Nian looked at her left leg that was broken in the car accident and she still can't walk.
The old lady didn't say anything else. She knew that a child's self-confidence should not be undermined at any time.
After leaving the ward, Qiao Nian went to the attending doctor's office.
The attending doctor's surname is Zhang, a very kind middle-aged man.
Doctor Zhang saw Qiao Nian coming in, adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose, and said with a smile, "I'm here to see your grandma again!"
Qiao Nian nodded and sat across from him, "Dr. Zhang, I want to see how much money is left in my grandma's account and how long it will last."
"Wait a minute, I'll check it for you!" Dr. Zhang clicked the mouse a few times and said, "There are more than 10,000 left, and I can last until next month at most!"
"Okay, thank you doctor!" Qiao Nian said politely and stood up.
Seeing that her face was a little solemn, Dr. Zhang couldn't help but ask: "Your family members haven't come to renew their subscription for a long time. Did they encounter any difficulties?"
Her grandmother had been hospitalized for a long time, and there were always people renewing her account, so the balance was relatively sufficient. However, recently, no one came to pay, and the money on her account became less and less.
"No!" Qiao Nian smiled awkwardly, "I will renew it!"
Doctor Zhang didn't say anything more. He knew that the child was quite sensible, but his family members rarely showed up, which made him feel a little strange.
Qiao Nian went to the first floor to add 20,000 yuan to her grandmother's account, which was all her savings.
...
In the evening, Qiao Nian went to work at No. 1 Huangting as usual. Because it was the weekend, there were so many people.
Gu Nan sang three times a night and was so popular that he finally had time to talk to Qiao Nian during the intermission.
"Are you feeling well?" His throat felt a little uncomfortable, so he raised his head and drank a few sips of mineral water.
"It's okay now, but you, don't work too hard!" Qiao Nian saw that the vest he was wearing was soaked with sweat. After three games in one night, it was actually quite exhausting.
"It's okay, who made me so popular!" Gu Nan said with a smile, "Besides, when you are young, shouldn't you work harder? My salary this month may be five figures!"
"Awesome!" Qiao Nian gave him a thumbs up.
"What does this mean?" Gu Nan was a little embarrassed. "It's nothing compared to rich people!"
Qiao Nian touched her pocket, where she found a check of five million from Xi Moting. Yes, the money that ordinary people earn over a lifetime of hard work may be just a drop in the bucket for rich people.
"You are still so young, maybe you will become famous in the future!" Qiao Nian patted him on the shoulder and encouraged him. There is nothing impossible for a young person!
"I'd like to lend you some good words!" Gu Nan looked up and smiled brightly, "I'm telling you, don't leave after get off work, I'll treat you to something delicious!"
