Chapter 81 Imprinting the Wolf
There were very few people on the bus.
These days, most families own a car, and at the end of December, when the time is neither too early nor too late, fewer people take the bus.
He was wearing a down jacket, opened the window, and let the cold wind blow on his face, which was quite biting.
Weicheng, resettlement community.
His family originally lived in a suburban village. In 2014, when the county town was expanding its roads, his house was occupied and turned into a park. It is right next to Weicheng's Second Ring Road.
They got a small taste of the demolition compensation benefits.
Shen Mo was studying at the time and did not participate in this matter. He only knew that he received some money and his family moved into a 120-square-meter resettlement community.
"Xiao Mo, you're back!"
"Auntie's back!"
"Okay, I'll come back and rest for a few days."
The community is full of people who originally lived in the village; they are all familiar faces.
Click!
Upon opening the door, a slight musty smell wafted from the living room, while only the bedroom smelled normal.
Clearly, because of her father's situation, her mother, who used to love cleanliness, lost interest in tidying up the house.
While I was out buying groceries, the cleaning service I ordered through the platform arrived at my door.
I prepared a simple meal and packed it in a lunchbox.
After finishing, the house was clean and spotless again.
We arrived at the People's Hospital.
A familiar figure appeared; the mother, Lin Yu, had a slightly hunched back.
My parents were arranged to marry by my grandfather. They were only in their early twenties when he was born, and now they are only in their early forties.
All I can say is that illness is agonizing.
"Xiao Mo!"
His father, lying in his hospital bed, saw him first.
It startled her mother, who was resting by the bedside.
"Why are you back?"
"I took leave from work to come back and see you all."
Shen Mo originally thought he could hold back, but when he actually saw his parents standing in front of him, the memories of his two lifetimes overwhelmed him like a storm.
My nose felt slightly sore, and my eyes were a little red.
"You've only just started working, it's not good to take time off! Tell me honestly, is something wrong at work?"
"No way! My work is going perfectly."
"Mom, don't worry about Dad's surgery fees, I've already taken care of it."
Saying those words felt like a huge weight being lifted from my heart, and I felt a sudden sense of relief and clarity.
"Resolved?"
Lin Yu was stunned, incredulous.
Shen's father, lying on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes wide, somewhat incredulous.
His mental state has collapsed ever since he got this disease.
For an average family, the surgery cost of two to three hundred thousand yuan, plus post-operative recovery expenses, is tantamount to telling them:
You might as well just die.
Hearing his son say this so suddenly, he instinctively couldn't believe it.
"It's resolved," Shen Mo repeated.
"Didn't I tell you last time? I'm a minor internet celebrity now. With the tips from my live streams, plus my salary and commission from the company, my money problem is solved."
"nonsense!"
Lin Yu's expression immediately turned serious.
"Don't think your mom doesn't understand. Live streaming can make money, and you have a lot of fans, but even if you can make a lot, you can't possibly earn this much in a month!"
"Tell me honestly, how did you earn that money?"
Parents love their children not by what they have, but by what they have given.
Lin Yu is now terrified that her son will go astray.
After all, for an ordinary family, anyone who brings home two or three hundred thousand yuan a month would feel uneasy.
Shen Mo sighed inwardly.
Luckily, I was prepared.
"Besides that, I also took on a promotional job, helping to sell tickets for a show in Chengdu. I made quite a bit of money from it."
"Don't worry, your son didn't steal or rob; he earned all the money himself through hard work."
Of course, this does not include income from stock trading.
If his parents knew that he had earned not just three or four hundred thousand, but millions in the past month, I wonder how shocked they would be.
Therefore, he chose to keep it a secret.
After chatting for a few minutes, Shen Mo opened the lunchbox, and the food inside was still warm.
"I'll go pick up Shen Xue later."
"Your sister is a grown woman, why do you need to pick her up?"
Shen Xue had excellent grades, ranking among the top fifty in the county in the high school entrance exam. She was directly recruited by a high school in the city and even had part of her tuition waived.
Lin Yu's face brightened considerably as she ate her simple tomato and egg stir-fry. Her son was back and had become quite successful.
"No matter how old she is, she's still my sister. You guys eat more, I'm going to have mutton soup later, I don't eat this."
While they were talking, the parents had already finished all the food in the lunchbox.
After finishing packing, Shen Mo gave a few instructions, picked up the lunchbox, and headed towards the doctor's office.
"Uncle Huang!"
"Silence!"
"I just heard from the nurse that Brother Shen's son is back. I was thinking of going to see him after I finish my work!"
Dr. Huang's real name is Huang Qingmin. He is in his forties and is also from a suburban village. He and his father, Shen Shiyun, grew up together.
"Thank you, Uncle Huang, for everything during this time."
"The most important thing is that everyone is safe. We're all from the same village, so there's no need to be so formal."
"I'll pay the rest of the money."
"So fast?" Huang Qingmin was taken aback.
As far as I can remember, Shen Mo transferred money just a few days ago.
Although he was curious, he couldn't ask too many questions when it came to money.
"Isn't the surgery about to start? I rushed back specifically for this."
"Okay! Come with me."
The two of them went to the payment counter together and paid the fee.
The cost of coronary artery bypass surgery is 12 yuan, bioprosthetic valve is 16 yuan, preoperative examination fee is 1 yuan, postoperative monitoring fee is 1.5 yuan, surgical auxiliary fee is 1.5 yuan, and postoperative anticoagulant and follow-up examination is 2 yuan.
"Some surgeries are covered by medical insurance, but consumables such as bioprosthetic valves are not."
"A mechanical valve can be chosen for heart valve replacement surgery, which is cheaper."
Huang Qingmin reminded him.
As a doctor, he has seen far too many families go bankrupt because of an illness.
Even though it happened to someone close to him, he still couldn't help feeling sad.
"No need for Uncle Huang, just use the bio-valve."
Shen Mo immediately said.
Now that we have money, we naturally want to use the best.
After deducting the items covered by medical insurance, he transferred another 100,000 yuan into the fund.
He finally breathed a sigh of relief after leaving the hospital.
After more than a month of tension, I can finally relax completely at this moment.
Now, all we can do is hope that my father's surgery goes smoothly.
Weicheng mutton soup is famous far and wide.
We found an old shop that had been open since childhood, ordered half a jin (250g) of meat, and ate the meat with gusto and drank the soup in large bowls.
After finishing his meal, he typed "wild boar" in a group chat on his phone, and arrived at the entrance of Jiangcheng Middle School a little over an hour later.
I sent a message to Shen Xue; there was still more than an hour before they got out of school.
Feeling bored, I walked into a bookstore.
The bookstore is very large; the first floor sells books, while the second floor sells celebrity merchandise, anime figurines, and the like.
Not far away, a slightly overweight middle-aged man wearing a baseball cap caught his attention.
No!
I never expected to run into him here.
Tao Lang!
After thinking about it, I realized that the other party was from Zicheng, and his company was also located in Zicheng.
Zicheng and Weicheng are both county towns, under the jurisdiction of Jiangcheng. It is reasonable for the children of the other party to study in Jiangcheng.
Seemingly noticing his gaze, Daolang looked up.
Their eyes met.
Shen Mo did not rush forward to disturb them, but simply smiled and nodded.
Daolang was somewhat surprised.
The other person clearly recognized him, but didn't say anything.
Realizing Shen Mo's goodwill, he smiled and nodded.
After exchanging greetings like old friends, the two went about their own mundane tasks.
Little did Dao Lang know that although Shen Mo did not approach him for a chat, he secretly stole something from him.
