Chapter 85 Medical Accident
The curtains in the room were tightly drawn, and the room was dark.
Although it is already the end of November, there is still plenty of sunshine outside at three o'clock in the afternoon.
At this time, the curtains in the house were drawn tightly, and the outdoor sunlight was completely blocked from the outside of the house.
There was a smell of cigarette smoke in the room. Lu Nanzhou was not asleep. The room was too dark. Xu Nan only saw him sitting on the ground near the bed, holding a cigarette in his hand and smoking.
The whole person looked extremely decadent.
He is incompatible with the person who usually seems stable and reliable.
Why on earth would make him become like this?
Xu Nan's thoughts were very confused. She was thinking about Lu's father and mother who had returned to their hometown. Could it be that something happened to Lu Nanzhou's family?
But this year Xu Nan quickly denied it.
impossible!
If something happened at home, Lu Nanzhou would never sit here and smoke decadently. Instead, he would take her to the train station to buy a ticket back to his hometown in a hurry.
If this idea is not established, then it can only be... a work matter.
Xu Nan thought of Lu Nanzhou's occupation and how he returned home early even though it was not time to get off work today.
Could it be...
Xu Nan thought about this and turned on the light in the bedroom first.
With a "pop" sound, the room turned from dark to bright.
The sudden bright light made Xu Nan close his eyes in discomfort.
After a few seconds of relief, Xu Nan opened his eyes again.
The man had put out the half-smoked cigarette in his hand, and she was looking at Xu Nan at this time.
The two looked at each other, speechless.
After a moment of silence, the room became eerily quiet.
In the end, Xu Nan was defeated first. She looked at Lu Nanzhou and asked hesitantly:
"Are you... okay?"
She was answered with silence. After a long while, just when she thought Lu Nanzhou would not answer her question, Xu Nan turned around and left the master bedroom.
Since he wasn't going to say it, there was no need for her to stay here.
Xu Nan had just walked to the door of the bedroom when the man behind him suddenly opened his mouth. Lu Nanzhou's tone was extremely hoarse when he spoke, as if he had aged dozens of years.
"yes……"
What is it?
Xu Nan turned around to look at him, waiting for his next words.
It was difficult to hear Lu Nanzhou's words. After a long time, he said as if he was saying something unspeakable:
"Something happened at the hospital and I was forced to take half a month off."
After saying that, there was only a "click" sound from the lighter, and it was Lu Nanzhou who lit up another cigarette.
It was as if he was trying to numb himself with cigarettes.
Xu Nan stood there, looking at his unskilled smoking movements, and asked:
"Did something happen?"
After Lu Nanzhou heard this, he took another long puff of cigarette. The strong spicy smell made him cough violently.
Seeing this, Xu Nan chuckled, took a few steps forward, walked in front of him, stretched out his arm, and quickly snatched the cigarette from his hand.
He said with some sarcasm in his tone:
"If you don't know how to smoke, don't smoke. Don't smoke until the end without understanding and end up choking yourself."
"Tell me, what happened in the hospital?"
There was some comfort in Xu Nan's tone, which sounded very reassuring.
Lu Nanzhou raised his head and looked at Xu Nan. When he saw her looking at him with concern on her face, he felt ashamed for a moment.
It's his fault, he shouldn't have brought negative emotions to his home and made her worry as well.
He wiped his face in despair, stood up from the ground, and murmured to Xu:
"There was an accident during an operation. Due to the surgeon's misjudgment, the patient died unexpectedly."
Hearing this, Xu Nan opened his mouth in shock.
She thought something would happen, but she didn't expect something so big would happen.
No wonder Lu Nanzhou was so decadent. Seeing her patient die on the operating table because of her, thinking from her perspective, if it were her, she would die of guilt.
She opened her mouth, not knowing how to comfort Lu Nanzhou. In the end, she just said dryly:
"Don't be too sad. Now that things have happened, we must dare to take responsibility."
Xu Nan thought for a while, and estimated that the family's savings and the money she earned from setting up a stall a while ago would total more than a thousand yuan.
Since the patient died unexpectedly because of Lu Nanzhou, they should try their best to compensate the patient's family.
Although money cannot buy life, there is no better way at the moment.
Xu Nan took out his bankbook and a large amount of change from his pocket, stuffed it randomly into Lu Nanzhou's hand, patted him on the shoulder, and said to him calmly:
"The bosses of the family are all here. You can take the money first. If it's not enough, we'll find a way."
"Now that things have happened, we can't escape. How old is the patient? Is he married? Are there any elderly people or children at home?"
If there are elderly people and children, they can help raise/support them, which can be regarded as fulfilling their due responsibilities.
Lu Nanzhou, who had his fortune stuffed into him, stared blankly at the pile of change in his hand.
He was stunned at first, but when he came to his senses, he realized that Xu Nan had misunderstood.
It's all because he didn't explain clearly and Xu Nan mistakenly thought he was the attending doctor.
He looked at the large amount of change in his hand and was dumbfounded. He also knew in his heart that this was probably all the family's belongings.
Xu Nan actually gave him all of this, and Lu Nanzhou was extremely moved. He suddenly remembered the saying he had heard since childhood, that husband and wife are like birds in the same forest, and they will fly apart when disaster strikes.
But when it comes to him, this sentence obviously does not hold true.
Xu Nan's reaction was clearly to share the adversity with him.
He pretended to sigh and put all the money and bankbook back into Xu Nan's hands.
With the intention of teasing her, he sighed loudly and pretended to be distressed.
As expected, Xu Nan asked nervously and loudly:
"Why are you sighing? Isn't this enough money? How much more do you need?"
Lu Nanzhou said nothing, and stretched out his finger to sign "three".
Xu Nan almost blurted out:
"Thirty thousand?!!"
With so much money, it will take her a long time to earn it.
Xu Nan frowned again and again, stretched out his hand and scratched his hair irritably.
When Lu Nanzhou saw her, he burst into laughter.
Xu Nan only thought that he was feeling extremely happy and sad, and he did not forget to continue to comfort him when he spoke:
"It's okay, it's okay. Let's just make money slowly. At worst, we'll just have to live a hard life for a few years."
It's a pity that the patient's life was lost like this. It's really pitiful.
Seeing that Xu Nan was thinking more and more wrongly, Lu Nanzhou sighed, stopped teasing Xu Nan, and hurriedly explained:
"Xu Nan, you misunderstood."
"The surgeon who performed the surgery on the patient who died was not me, and I was not involved in that operation."
Xu Nan: "...Huh?"
What happened to Natmo?
