Zhang Weiâs mother was particularly receptive to this foreign mindset because she had become wealthy and thus enthusiastically encouraged her daughter to go abroad and be a cut above the rest. She truly believed that by coming to the hospital, paying Doctor Qian, she became God.
However, she forgot that even abroad, stores have the right to choose whether or not to do business. If you can apply this to buying and selling goods, you can apply it to doctors as well. If you demand something impossible from a doctor, the doctor will definitely not do it, whether at home or abroadâitâs all the same. Theyâll just tell you to find another provider (doctor) instead.
Elder Brother Zhang and Little Aunt Zhang immediately sensed that the doctorsâ expressions were off and pulled Zhang Weiâs mother aside.
âWhy donât you just hold your tongue, big sister-in-law?â Little Aunt Zhang pleaded with her sister-in-law below.
Zhang Weiâs mother, who had been furious with Little Aunt Zhang ever since she had started flattering Xie Wanying, shook off her hand: âWithout me, mom wouldnât be able to stay in the hospital.â
âWasnât it your brother who found the person? How did it become you, big sister-in-law?â Little Aunt Zhang was equally angry and snapped back.
âWhat âyour brother found,â it was me, me!â Zhang Weiâs mother loudly slapped her chest and said, âYour brother is so busy, how could he have time to accompany you and mom to the hospital to register?â
âBig sister-in-law, didnât you later find someone to help you with the registration? That person was called by Elder Brother Zhang,â Little Aunt Zhang, unable to bear it anymore, revealed the truth, âBecause Elder Brother Zhang saw you struggling to register for a long time and could not wait any longer, he did you this favor. We also know that she is our birth mother, not yours.â
The middle class values maintaining a good appearance. Unless the conflict is very serious, they wisely take care of issues behind the scenes not wanting to escalate the conflict. This approach to handling domestic affairs shows the Zhang family is quite cultured. Elder Brother Zhang too, always trying to save face for his wife.
Zhang Weiâs mother turned and looked at her husband: Really!?
Elder Brother Zhang sighed. Sometimes he wondered if he had spoiled his wife and daughter too much, letting them think everything was natural, that everyone needed to look to their wealth for favor, as if such easy pickings existed in the world.
Was Little Aunt Zhang telling the truth? Zhang Weiâs mother was so shocked she almost couldnât stand steady.
âDoctor, you decide on the treatment you deem appropriate,â Elder Brother Zhang stated to the doctors, signaling them not to consider his wifeâs opinions.
âRight. Sheâs my and my brotherâs birth mother, not my big sister-in-lawâs,â Little Aunt Zhang, worried the doctors might hesitate, eagerly followed her brotherâs lead, âThe decisions about my momâs care should be made by me and my Elder Brother.â
The family relationship diagram was clear to the doctors. Legally speaking, the patientâs direct relatives come first.
âWe understand. Weâll discuss and then come to you all for a pre-surgery consultation. Please ensure your phones are reachable today,â Shi Xu instructed the family.
âI have a request Iâd like to discuss with you doctors,â Little Aunt Zhang suddenly said.
The doctors were puzzled.
âSheâs Zhang Weiâs classmate, and we trust her; could you let her help treat Zhang Weiâs grandmother?â Little Aunt Zhang asked, pointing at Xie Wanying.
Zhang Weiâs mother fiercely grabbed her Little Aunt, her eyes nearly bulging out of their sockets.
Little Aunt Zhang ignored her big sister-in-law. The pleasantries she exchanged with her sister-in-law were for her Elder Brotherâs sake, and there had been many things her sister-in-law had done that she had long found objectionable.
âI speak sincerely,â Little Aunt Zhang earnestly said to the doctors, then turned to Xie Wanying with a request, âYingying, will you help treat Zhang Weiâs grandmother?â
This family is quite interesting, several doctors thought privately, wondering if the other party had done some preliminary research?
