Chapter 259 - 254: Transfer to Another Hospital
Fang Pingying and Luo Honglan got up early and didn’t delay on their way, arriving at the hospital by only eight o’clock.
At the entrance of the hospital, just as Fang Pingying was about to ask around, she spotted Luo Zhiyong coming out from one of the wards, looking rather pale.
Fang Pingying immediately approached and called out to him, "Zhiyong, how is Uncle doing?"
Hearing her voice, Luo Zhiyong lifted his head and hurried over, asking with a frown, "Why are you here so early?"
"Never mind that now," Fang Pingying urgently inquired, "How is Uncle’s illness?"
Luo Zhiyong massaged his temple wearily, his tone somber, "Uncle’s illness is pretty serious. The doctor tried everything to bring down his fever last night, but it’s still not subsiding. Now he’s even started to talk nonsense. The doctors here issued a critical condition notice, but they still suggest that we transfer him to the county hospital since this clinic’s equipment and all are limited."
At this news, Fang Pingying urged him, "Then let’s transfer him. We can’t delay Uncle’s illness."
In Fang Pingying’s view, the clinic was too small, and its medical equipment was not comprehensive.
Luo Zhiyong nodded, saying he was just about to go and inquire with the doctor again, but also revealed the reason for the indecision, "But Auntie is unwilling; she’s afraid something might happen to Uncle on the way, and that we won’t even be able to find a house for him..."
Fang Pingying understood what Luo Zhiyong meant; since the doctor had issued a critical condition notice, Qiu Xiu feared that if something truly happened to Uncle en route, he would die away from home.
Rural people value these things the most, so Qiu Xiu’s intention was to treat him in this town so that if it doesn’t work out, it’s easy to transport him back home quickly. Even if he were to die, he should die at home.
Fang Pingying inhaled sharply; she hadn’t expected the situation to be this grave.
