100. Laughter fills the hall with great "filial piety" (2)_1

```

By the time they reached the town hospital, the doctor said after taking an x-ray that her thigh bone was broken and she needed surgery in the city.

The surgery was somewhat complicated and had to be done at a top-tier hospital to be safe. The problem was that the reimbursement rate at a top-tier hospital was not high, and the old lady had some other minor issues as well. After reimbursement, the estimated expenses would still be around ten to twenty thousand yuan.

Just as they were arranging to send her to the city quickly, the children finally had time to make phone calls.

When the eldest son got on the phone, he started by complaining about his mother:

"...She just can't enjoy the good life! With food and drink aplenty, why did she have to go up the mountain?"

The second son also made a call, grumbling:

"Mom, don't you realize how important my job is right now? How crucial it is for the kids to go to school? Can't you just give us a break?"
