Traveling Frog: People in Douluo start thundering fruit

Chapter 40 It’s impossible without money

It has to be said that many places in this twisted Douluo Continent are very similar to the Blue Star where Xiao Mu once lived.

Not only are there cars, there are also highways.

The taxi the two took arrived at the destination hospital soon.

After the mother got off the car, she rushed to the nurse station and asked about her husband's ward.

Finally, the two hurriedly found their father who was lying unconscious on the hospital bed.

The mother rushed to her husband and shook his arm.

"The child's father! Wake up! Wake up!"

Xiao Mu quickly stopped him: "Mom, don't get excited. Let's ask the doctor about the situation first. If you are shaking Dad's body rashly now, it will easily cause problems."

"Yes! Where's the doctor!"

The mother seemed to be in a trance, and she directly pressed the emergency light on the bedside.

The emergency lights were blaring loudly like the flashing warning lights on the roof of an ambulance, so nurses and doctors rushed to the bedside.

"What happened?"

"Did you turn on the emergency lights?"

Facing the doctors' doubts, Xiao Mu quickly stepped forward to explain.

After receiving forgiveness from the medical staff, the nurses dispersed.

The doctor warned: "Next time, don't press the emergency light randomly again!"

"I know! I'm really sorry!"

"Since the patient's family members are here, let me talk to you about the patient's condition."

The mother came to her senses immediately and grabbed the doctor's arm excitedly.

The doctor's tightly held arm obviously felt uncomfortable, and Xiao Mu pulled away his mother's hands with a clear look.

"Mom! Don't get excited first! If you have something to say, please say it~"

After the mother released her hands, there were still obvious light red marks on the doctor's arms.

Even though the mother's behavior was obviously rude, the battle-hardened doctor didn't seem surprised.

"Family members, please calm down and listen to me first, because the patient fell from a height..."

"Falling from high altitude?" Xiao Mu interrupted.

"Yes, the patient did fall into a pit, but since the depth of the pit is as high as 10 meters, it is already a high fall. The high fall has caused the patient to have a concussion and cerebral hemorrhage, so he is now in a coma. There are fractures on the hands and feet, and since the patient has not yet woken up, it is currently impossible to confirm whether there is paralysis of the limbs."

The mother burst into tears suddenly, "How could this happen! Isn't it said that good people have a safe life? The child's father has always worked hard for the family, and the neighbors often praise him, but why is this happening!"

"I heard from a worker who came with the ambulance that the patient accidentally slipped and fell into a deep pit."

"Deep pit? Misstep?" Xiao Mu's mind was full of doubts.

After saying that, the doctor turned and left.

The mother cried very sadly, and it was obvious that she felt very sorry for her father who was ill in bed.

"Mom, didn't dad work as a security guard before? Why did he appear at the construction site?"

The mother tried her best to calm down her emotions, and then said: "Those are all excuses for you to study with peace of mind. How can the salary of a security guard be used to provide you with books and teaching? Although the workers on the construction site are hard work, the salary is not only considerable, but And after the project is completed, there will be a large amount of project funds......"

She felt sorry for her father and as soon as she finished speaking, she couldn't help crying again.

Only then did Xiao Mu realize that his parents were working secretly and silently for him, carrying the heavy burden alone and bearing the invisible pressure of life alone.

After all, people need money everywhere in their lives. It is impossible for Xiao Mu, who is always learning, to understand such realistic pressure.

But now Xiao Mu has also been severely beaten by the current social situation. Having money is indeed not everything, but having no money is really scary.

If you don’t have money, you will even become poorer and poorer.

This is what is called, the rich will only get richer, and the poor will only get poorer.

Xiao Mu walked out of the ward and was about to take a breath, when a nurse suddenly came over.

"Hello, are you Xiao Shou's family member?"

Xiao Mu nodded, "Yes, I am his son."

"Please come over and go through the hospitalization procedures."

So Xiao Mu followed the nurse to the nurse's station.

He looked at the dense list, first the ambulance emergency rescue costs, then hospitalization fees, monitoring fees, injection fees, minimally invasive brain surgery fees, etc.

This series of expenses adds up to an astronomical figure.

If it was at the vegetable market, Xiao Mu might try to cut down on the price.

But this is a hospital, a hospital that saves lives. Even if it is a hospital, it does not mean that it is a welfare institution that helps people.

The cost that Xiao Mu had on hand already cost one hundred thousand. One hundred thousand was either too much or too little.

For an ordinary family, there may be such savings.

But the family that Xiao Mu lives in is not an ordinary family, but a poor family.

One moment he was worried about family matters, and the next moment he was worried about his father's sky-high medical bills.

If my mother saw these expenses, she might collapse and faint.

After all, although there are many places similar to Blue Star, this is always a twisted Douluo Continent, not Blue Star.

Although there is a hospital here, there is no medical insurance.

Although there are cars here, there is no insurance.

This was the first time Xiao Mu came to Douluo Continent and felt emotional, as if he saw himself who had been tortured by reality.

Now it's like the nightmare is coming again.

It was precisely because of this touching scene again that Xiao Mu truly felt that this rebirth was an opportunity given to him by God.

no!In this life, I can no longer be as ordinary as the last life!I have to change the situation!

Xiao Mu's clenched fist almost scratched the medicine bill list to pieces.

"Hello, nurse, I would like to ask when is the latest time to pay this fee?"

"Normally you have to pay within 24 hours."

"Normally?"

"Well, that's right. Under special circumstances, you can apply for an extension to within 72 hours."

Xiao Mu nodded slowly, "Okay, no problem, 72 hours should be enough, then please help me apply!"

Xiao Mu took out his citizen information card. After checking it, the nurse verified that the economic income of Xiao Mu's family did belong to the lower class.

So Xiao Mu was given special treatment and the payment period was relaxed to 72 hours.

In three days, I have to use my ability to make a lot of money!

Today happens to be Friday. Starting from now, Xiao Mu must settle his father's medical expenses before Sunday.

Then there will be the study activity from Shrek Academy to the World Government on Monday. Before that, not only must we make enough money, but we must not allow any losses.

Xiao Mu hurriedly left the hospital and walked through many small alleys.

The place he was going to was his home.

When he returned home and looked at the broken security door, he sighed and walked into the house.
