Chapter 24: This is a loss, you have to eat it
Inside the hospital, the young nurse had already run to the door of the ward. More than a dozen beds in the ward were occupied by members of the Wang family. They were all groaning and some were cursing.
The young nurse knocked on the door, and when everyone looked over, she asked, "Who among you is Wang Goudan?"
"What?" Secretary Wang glanced at the young nurse, because he was a little unhappy because the young nurse called him all the names.
The young nurse looked at Secretary Wang and asked, "Are you Wang Goudan?"
"..." Secretary Wang's face became even more embarrassed. "Just tell me what you want to say. Are you polite to call someone by their full name?"
Hey! If I don't call you by your full name, should I call you Goudan or Lao Wang?
The young nurse was a little confused, but thinking of the group of people below, she didn't bother with Secretary Wang. "Are you the secretary of the Litang Brigade?"
Secretary Wang nodded with a stern face.
"Then go downstairs. There are dozens of people from your village. They say they were beaten up and are waiting for you to seek justice for them."
"Who got beaten again?" When Secretary Wang heard the word "beaten", his temples began to throb.
His son was just discharged from the hospital today, and was beaten into the hospital again today. Not only that, this time Zhang Xiuhe and all his relatives were beaten into the hospital. These relatives were called by their family to help, and they were beaten, so the medical expenses were all charged to him.
Just in one afternoon, he paid more than 300 yuan in advance to the hospital, almost emptying his family's savings.
"How would I know? Anyway, when you went down, a group of people blocked the entrance of the hospital and refused to leave."
"Old Four, come here." Old Lady Wang winked at Secretary Wang, and when the other person came closer, she lowered her voice and said, "Those people must have been beaten up by that little bitch Tang Man this afternoon. Now they are running to the hospital. Who knows, they might want us to pay for the medical expenses."
Pay for medical expenses!!!
These people must be crazy to dare to ask him to pay for the medical expenses.
Secretary Wang's face turned green with anger, but he thought that this was a hospital with many people and many gossips, and he couldn't let others laugh at him, so he said to the young nurse with a stern face.
"I'm busy right now. Please ask them to go back. If you have anything to say, wait until my son is discharged from the hospital."
The nurse shook her head and said, "That won't work. You go down and tell them yourself. Those people said they won't leave if they can't see you."
Secretary Wang glanced at the young nurse and said, "Then let them wait."
"No, they are blocking the door, which will have a great impact on our hospital. You need to get down quickly."
"I won't go." Secretary Wang sat back on the stool. He still didn't believe that the young nurse could force him to go if he didn't go.
"You..." The young nurse was almost mad at these people. She pointed at Secretary Wang and kept saying "you, you, you" for a long time before she said loudly, "If you don't get down, I will report you to the police station and sue you for disturbing the order. I want to see if you can get down by then."
After saying that, the young nurse walked out.
Secretary Wang stood up with a bang and quickly followed. If the incident really went to the police station, it would have a great impact on him.
Because of his son's affairs, his eldest brother-in-law is already very dissatisfied with him. If anything goes wrong again, his eldest brother-in-law might just let him fend for himself, and he might even lose his position as the village party secretary.
As soon as Secretary Wang showed his head, a large group of old men and women rushed over and surrounded him, crying and shouting, "Secretary Wang, you have to give us justice!"
One of the old ladies even cried with snot and tears, "Secretary Wang, you know what our family is like. My poor son was beaten so badly that he is in so much pain at home, but I can't afford to pay a doctor to treat him?... Woo woo... Secretary Wang! My son is the only labor force in my family, and he doesn't even have a partner. If he falls, how will we live..."
As she spoke, she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her rough hands. Her expression was truly heartbreaking.
Seeing this, the other elderly people also echoed it. With Tang Man's guidance, they were as shrewd as humans. They did not mention that their children were beaten because of the Wang family's affairs. They just cried to Secretary Wang about the miserable plight of their sons and how poor their families were. If their sons fell ill and had no money for treatment, they would not be able to make a living.
The twenty or so injured people had been lying on the ground wailing non-stop when the young nurse went upstairs.
Secretary Wang was dizzy from the noise, but the people who surrounded him were all old men, and this was a hospital, so he didn't dare to scold them or hit them. He could only persuade them kindly, "Don't worry, I will definitely give you an explanation for this matter."
"Secretary Wang, we certainly believe you, but what about my son's injury? We can't just let him suffer like this! If it's just a superficial injury, he'll get over it, but if there's something wrong with his body, our family will be in tatters."
Secretary Wang thought about it and immediately said, "Let Xie Yan treat it. We should go back to find Xie Yan now. He and his wife beat us up like this, so he has to be responsible for healing us."
An old man slapped his thigh and cried, "We went there in the evening, but that bastard Xie Yan wouldn't even let us in, and said he wouldn't treat us anymore from now on."
Secretary Wang's face darkened, and he immediately said, "If he dares, if he dares not to take responsibility, we..."
A young man in his twenties who was sitting at the door stood up and said, "Dad, Mom, since Secretary Wang can't do anything, let's go directly to the police station and ask them to help us get justice. My brother was beaten like this, we must get an explanation anyway."
"Yes, go to the police station." Others immediately agreed.
"Don't do anything stupid," Secretary Wang shouted angrily. Seeing that everyone had quieted down, he tried to persuade them kindly, "Village issues should be resolved in the village. It's ridiculous to bring them to the police station."
"What should we do? Xie Yan, Tang Man, and that guy are very scary when they beat people up. Secretary Wang, if you take us to the clinic to make trouble again, we will be beaten up again. It doesn't matter to me, but my parents are old, they will definitely beat them to death on the spot."
"Yes! We can't afford to offend those three people. We can only ask the security guards to deal with them."
"Yes, let's go to the police station. We're all going to the police station."
Someone shouted, and everyone stood up. The wounded were either supported or carried, and they went to the police station in a mighty manner.
"Come back." Secretary Wang immediately said loudly, "All the injured will stay in the hospital for treatment. As for what happened this morning, we will go back and ask for an explanation after the injured have recovered. Don't worry, I will definitely ask Xie Yan to give an explanation. If they dare to beat people again, I will go to the police station to report the case myself."
Seeing that they were unwilling to listen to him and were still walking out, Secretary Wang said loudly, "I will pay for everyone's medical treatment."
Secretary Wang’s head was about to explode. What could he possibly do?
Now he can only sacrifice money to avoid disaster. If these people really make trouble and go to the police station, his future will be really over.
Seeing everyone stop, Secretary Wang looked at the nurse and said, "What are you doing? Take the patient to see a doctor!"
