Liu Hui hurried to Ding Sangui's office, knocked on the door, and walked in.

Ding Sangui saw something was wrong with Liu Hui's face, and his heart skipped a beat. Could it be that something happened in the air-raid shelter? He quickly asked: "Liu Hui, what happened?"

Liu Hui showed a trace of embarrassment on his face and said: "Director Ding, my mother had an accident and her leg was broken. She needs money for surgery. Can I... borrow a few months of my salary... to do my mother's surgery?"

Ding Sangui breathed a sigh of relief in his heart! As long as there is no problem with the air-raid shelter, it will be fine. He thought for a while and said, "Well, I'll accompany you to the Finance Department to have a look."

"Thank you, director! Thank you, director!" Liu Hui thanked him repeatedly.

When you come to the Finance Department, the director can only approve one month's salary in advance; if you need to withdraw more salary in advance, you need the approval of Commander Liu in charge.

Finally, Liu Hui was so anxious that he broke into a cold sweat, received a month's salary, and hurried to the orthopedic hospital.

Seeing the irregular bending of his mother's calf, Liu Hui's heart was broken! He knew that his mother was in great pain! He leaned down and shouted with tears in his eyes: "Mom...!"

Liu Hui's mother's forehead was covered with sweat. She nodded and asked: "Hui'er, we can't afford treatment in this hospital; let's go home!"

Liu Hui's heart was torn once again!

Liu Hui lost his father when he was young. His mother was widowed when he was less than 20 years old, and he was brought up by herself. Liu Hui worked hard since he was a child, and later was admitted to the military academy. After joining the army, he also worked very hard. In less than three years, he was

At the age of ten, he was promoted to major and served as deputy chief of the engineering section of the Air Defense Office.

After graduating from the military academy, Liu Hui married a wife, who had difficulty giving birth. He saved the child, but not his wife. In this way, his mother worked hard to help him take care of his newborn son.

Over the years, although Liu Hui's salary has increased to fifty-five yuan (legal currency), the price of goods in Chongqing is high, which can barely sustain the life of a family of three. There is no savings at all, let alone a renewal.

This time, Liu Hui received one month's salary and borrowed some money from his colleagues, barely scraping together one hundred yuan.

Now, the hospital requires Liu Hui to pay a deposit of 300 yuan before he will perform an operation on his mother! This is a private hospital. If you don't pay the money, it is impossible for them to treat your mother. Not only that, they will also drive you away.

Liu Hui was so anxious that he was sweating profusely!

Listening to his mother's words, Liu Hui was so ashamed! A dignified man couldn't even save his mother! At the same time, he also felt sorry for his mother. He had worked hard for him for almost a lifetime, and now he was about to live out his life, but he had to face amputation.

ending.

At this time, a doctor rushed over, looked at Liu Hui, and asked, "Are you Liu Hui, Wang's son?"

Liu Hui nodded.

The doctor said: "What are you doing here? Go and pay the money! If you don't do the surgery in time, you know the consequences."

The doctor did not say amputation in front of Liu Hui's mother, which finally saved Liu Hui some face.

With an embarrassed look on his face, Liu Hui pulled the doctor out of the door and said softly: "Doctor, I will pay you one hundred yuan first. Please help my mother do the surgery. I will find a way to borrow the rest of the money right away. You see...

Ok?"

The doctor shook his head repeatedly and said: "These days, if you don't pay the medical fee, we will still have to take care of your mother's food and accommodation. This kind of thing has happened many times in our hospital. If the deposit is not paid now, the hospital will not be able to do anything."

It's impossible to operate on your mother! You should quickly find a way to borrow money! If you can't borrow money today, you have to take your mother away!"

After that, the doctor left without looking back.

Liu Hui is a little desperate! There are loan sharks in Chongqing, which must not be touched. Once he borrows a loan shark, his salary may only be enough to repay the interest. What will the family's life be like in the future?

Liu Hui hurriedly returned to the ward and said to his mother: "Mom, you rest here for a while. I will go out and do some errands and then come back..."

How could Mother Liu not know her son's predicament? She said, "Hui'er! Don't go borrowing money. Mom's leg will be useless if it's useless, and I can't add any more burden to you."

"Mom, what are you talking about? Although my son has no abilities, he can't just watch his mother's legs become useless. Don't worry about it. Just wait here peacefully. I'll be back as soon as I go."

Having said that, Liu Hui was eager to leave.

Mother Liu added: "Hui'er, don't forget to pick Xiaobao up after school in the afternoon!"

Liu Hui's son is in school and his parents need to pick him up after school every night.

Liu Hui nodded and left in a hurry.

After leaving the hospital, where can I borrow money? Moreover, I need to borrow two hundred yuan! And Liu Hui is a foreigner and has no relatives or friends in Chongqing.

Liu Hui walked a few steps and sat down on a stone in despair. He lowered his head and grabbed his hair with both hands, venting the pain and despair in his heart...

‘I must not watch my mother’s legs being crippled!’ Liu Hui secretly made up his mind!

‘How about borrowing a loan shark?’ Liu Hui was struggling in his heart... When he thought that his mother and son would not have money to eat in the future, he hesitated again!

There is nothing valuable at home, so we can't sell it for much money...

Desperate! Liu Hui is really desperate!

"Liu Hui!"

Liu Hui suddenly heard someone calling him. He didn't know anyone in Chongqing! He looked up and saw that it was Aunt Wang next door. He was a little startled.

Aunt Wang took out a stack of money from her bag and handed it to Liu Hui, saying, "I heard that your mother had an accident and needs money for treatment! You can use this money to treat your mother first."

Liu Hui was stunned for a few seconds! Uncle Wang's family next door had a son who was out of town. Few people knew what he was doing specifically. However, he knew that Uncle Wang's son was an Air Force pilot and had already died. But his comrades in the army were still monthly

The salary for sending the children to Uncle Wang's family was hidden from the old couple. Therefore, they still had some savings.

Can I get this money? Once I take over this money, I don’t know when I can pay it back. But, my mother...

Liu Hui stood up and said, "Aunt Wang, it's not easy for your family. This money..."

Aunt Wang stretched out the wad of money in front of Liu Hui and said, "Treat your mother first! Things always have priorities!"

Liu Hui knew the weight of the money, but when he was desperate, he had no choice but to accept it. He said: "Aunt Wang, I will pay you back the money as soon as possible!"

Aunt Wang smiled and said, "Go and treat your mother quickly!"

"Okay, okay!" Liu Hui was about to turn around and leave.

Aunt Wang said: "You can take care of your mother here with peace of mind. After school, I will help you pick up the child."

Liu Hui was so moved that he didn't know what to say! He had no choice but to nod.
