Hate The Bright Moon Chapter 34
byChapter 37
The old lady was lying on a makeshift bed in the hospital corridor. She only took painkillers, not even painkillers, and kept moaning.
Chi Huang went to the doctor and found out that she had a broken right calf and needed surgery to create a steel plate.
If all internal fixation materials are imported, the cost will be 50,000 to 60,000 yuan, and about 20,000 yuan after reimbursement.If domestic materials are used, the total cost will not exceed 30,000 yuan, and after reimbursement it will only cost a few thousand yuan more.
Just because of a few thousand dollars, Chi Huanian made his mother hurt him for a week, which made Chi Huang so angry that he wanted to beat him again.
He knew that the account reported to him by Chi Huanian was satisfactory.At this time, the lie was exposed. Chi Huanian had no shame and could still say with a shy face: “I also want to use imported parts for the old lady, right, Mom?”
The old lady was in so much pain that she could not speak.
When the doctor saw that the real payer had arrived, he quickly said: “The patient still needs to have the surgery as soon as possible. In fact, the domestic materials now are also very good and cheap. Everyone chooses the domestic ones…”
“Use imported ones.”
“Imported ones are several times more expensive. For ordinary families, there is honestly no need.”
“It doesn’t matter, just use imported ones. Doctor, please arrange the surgery as soon as possible.”
The doctor no longer advised, “The family members should pay the fee first.”
The more Chi Huanian listened, the more he stepped back. He wanted to slip away, but Chi Huanian quickly grabbed him with his quick hands, and then collected the more than 20,000 yuan he had just withdrawn.
The money became his once it entered his pocket. When it was taken away, he kept cursing.
Chi Huang was too lazy to care about him and went to the payment window.
Unfortunately, Chihuang’s grandmother and uncle moved to this city after his mother passed away.The old lady’s medical insurance is in another place and cannot be directly reimbursed. He needs to pay all the expenses in advance. After he is discharged from the hospital, he can take the information to the place of payment to apply for a refund.
Chi Huang secretly cursed, knowing that the refund would be none of his business.But there was no way, that was the rule, so he had no choice but to call Jiang Chao.
Jiang Chao immediately transferred 50,000 yuan to him, and asked him if he still had 100,000 yuan in bonus, if he wanted to transfer it all to him.
Chi Huang quickly refused.Chi Huanian ran away when the person in charge of the old lady arrived. Fortunately, he didn’t hear what he said.
After the operation, it was already past noon when the old lady was placed in a serious three-person ward and put on a pain pump.Chi Huang knew that she had not eaten anything since morning, so he went to bring her food.
The first thing the old man did when he recovered was to ask Chi Huang to find a comb for her: “Look at my hair, it’s as messy as a bird’s nest.”
Chi Huang went to the nurse’s desk to borrow a comb. The old lady pulled up her disheveled hair and gave herself a bun. She said a little embarrassedly: “Can you get some water to wash my face? I haven’t washed my face in a week.”
There were no basins or towels. Chi Huanian brought people to the hospital to settle the matter, and Chi Huang had to go to the nurse’s desk to borrow some.
Fetching hot water, he wiped the old man’s face and neck.The old lady took the towel, asked him to close the bed curtain, wiped her body, and then started to eat.
Chi Huang said: “Be careful in the future, you are prone to other problems at your age.”
The old lady, who usually spoke softly, put down her chopsticks and suddenly raised her voice: “I didn’t fall on my own, that bastard pushed me. If there were three steps higher, I would have fallen to death.”
“Why did he push you?” Even if Chi Huanian was nothing, he wouldn’t have murdered his own mother.
“You didn’t ask me to transfer the house to him, but I started arguing when I didn’t agree.” Speaking of this, the old lady was sad and angry. “I won’t transfer the house even if I fall to death. That prodigal, after losing his sister’s money, still wants to take away your house.”
She looked at Chi Huang, as if to reassure him, and said quickly: “Don’t worry, he can’t take it away. I have already notarized the will.”
After speaking, he tried to hold Chi Huang’s hand. As soon as he touched it, Chi Huang retracted his hand.
“You can live with him. I don’t want the house. It will be easier to live your life.”
“What are you talking about? How can you not want the house that your mother left for you?” The old man’s eyelids were wet, “Xiaochi, you still can’t forgive grandma in your heart, right…”
The old man started to cry, and his soft cries attracted other eyes in the ward.
Whether it was this voice or this look, Chi Huang was extremely irritable.
He left the ward, left the inpatient building, and went to the supermarket to buy daily necessities.
The weather was extremely hot that day, and a heavy rain that had yet to fall turned the entire city into a steamer.Steam rises from the concrete road, and the sunlight behind the clouds is dizzying.Chi Huang glanced at the gray sky, sweat sliding down his tear trough.
My mother’s property had been squandered long ago, and the only thing left was a high-end house in the city center.
He lived there as a child but didn’t like it.Half of the time, it was just him and the nanny. Even though his mother was at home, it was still very empty and didn’t feel like “home” at all.
His mother passed away suddenly without leaving any will. Grandma had the same inheritance rights as him, and the property was finally written in the old man’s name.As his guardian when he was still underage, his uncle naturally took charge of all the money left by his mother.
Even if a minor child has the right to inherit a large amount of wealth, it will not make him rich, it will only turn him into a piece of fat in the jungle.
All that money had long been squandered by Chi Huanian.Whether it’s gambling in Macau, starting a company, or investing in various high-yield products, to put it bluntly, it’s the same thing.Some things that seem like bets on luck are actually bets on intelligence.
Chi Huanian has long used his countless failures to prove that he is a fool.
The more empty it is, the more its empty mind is filled with grandiose desires and greed.After finally being unable to extract any money from Chi Huang, he naturally set his sights on the last property.
The old lady was not stupid. She had seen through her son a long time ago and refused to transfer the property to him. Instead, she claimed that Chi Huang’s name was written in the will.
In fact, Chi Huang knew that she didn’t really want to give the house to herself, otherwise she could transfer it to him now.
After her husband died and her daughter died, the old man was left with an unfaithful and unfilial bastard son and a grandson who was estranged from her. She had to use her desire for the house to trap them in charge of her old age.
Chi Huang understood her scheming considerations.
But can everything really go as she wishes?Who knows if Chi Huanian will push her down from a higher place next time he is angry and urgently needs money?
The old lady will stay in the hospital for another week. Chi Huang doesn’t have time to take care of her in the hospital, and Chi Huanian probably won’t come to watch over her either.After returning from shopping, Chi Huang asked the nurse to help her find a caregiver.
Before leaving in the afternoon, he went to ask the old lady for her opinion: “If you think Chi Huanian is not good to you, do you want to move in with me after he is discharged from the hospital?”
Chi Huang wanted to rent a house above him and let the old man live in it.He didn’t have to live with her, but there was care upstairs and downstairs.
The old lady was surprised by his suggestion: “Wouldn’t that trouble you a lot?”
“It’s not too much trouble. You can take care of yourself. I can at most provide you with a place to live.”
He doesn’t know where the old man lives with Chi Huanian now. It’s definitely not his mother’s apartment. After all, the rent of that house still needs to pay for Chi Huanian’s food and debt.
The old lady didn’t say anything. She was wondering whether her grandson was more trustworthy than her useless son.Perhaps in the longer term, whether the house is really left to Chi Huang in the end.She didn’t know what she thought of, but there was a look of panic on her face: “Forget it, your uncle won’t agree.”
Chi Huang knew what Chi Huanian disagreed with, so he said, “You transfer the house to him and he agrees.”
The old lady quickly waved her hand: “This is even worse. I promised you the house.”
After a while, she suddenly said: “I often dream about your mother recently. She asks me how you are in her dreams, and I always tell her how you are.
“Once, I dreamed that she was carrying you back to her hometown when you were still a baby. In the dream, you were alive, and you could clearly see your eyebrows and eyes… Obviously I had never seen you when you were a baby. Now that I think about those things, I can only regret…”
Unable to listen to these old stories and the regrets of an old man, the caregiver came and Chi Huang left.
As soon as I stepped out of the hospital, the heavy rain that had been holding in for a long time finally poured down.
Just a few seconds after leaving the platform and getting on the bus, Chi Huang was drenched all over.
After returning from Xinjiang, he had not slept for two days and one night. He had been running to the hospital and was soaked in the rain. He was extremely tired when he got home.He took a quick shower and threw himself on the bed.
The rain was pounding outside, and the raindrops were pounding on the awning in front of the door. It was very noisy, which made him feel sleepy for a while, and some images of dreams and dreams began to appear in his mind.
He has rarely seen his mother’s side in recent years. After knowing that he really had no money, Chi Huanian almost didn’t come to see him.He thought that the next time this bastard came to see him, it might be the day the old lady died.
The more I thought about these things, the more exhausted I became, and finally I fell asleep.
When he woke up again, his eyes were dark. Sleep not only did not relieve his fatigue, but also increased his discomfort. His head was extremely heavy, accompanied by tinnitus that came and went.
Chi Huang took the phone. It was about three o’clock in the middle of the night, and it was still raining outside.Only then did he realize that he was too hot. He must have caught a cold from the rain in the afternoon.
My throat was dry and swollen, almost smoking.He struggled to get up, found a bottle of water, and drank it all in one gulp.He almost fainted just standing, so he quickly lay back on the bed.
It’s been a long time since I had a cold that was so serious. The memory of high fever seems to be from when I was very young. Sometimes it was my mother who took him to the hospital, sometimes it was the nanny… His head was very dizzy, and his eyelids were so heavy that he couldn’t open his eyes.
Chi Huang turned off the light and planned to continue sleeping.According to his previous experience with colds, he will feel much better as soon as he wakes up.
I don’t know if he met someone he didn’t want to see today, but he didn’t sleep well after that.
Those days he deliberately forgot were like old movies, accompanied by noisy background sounds, flashing through his mind frame by frame.
He looked at everything indifferently, his chest was breathless, but he was helpless.
