Lin Nanfeng put down his bowl and was about to comfort her when Liu Xinrou looked at her son on the bed and said:
"Don't look at how serious he is now. He's actually much better than when we first saw him..."
Lin Nanfeng turned to look at the person on the bed. Xiang Guifan's entire body, including his fingers, was wrapped in gauze.
When she saw Xiang Guifan for the first time last night, she couldn't imagine how badly he was injured. Fatty also said that he almost died.
Liu Xinrou looked gentle and graceful, but she was much stronger than Lin Nanfeng had imagined.
"The day we were notified to visit him, he was in an isolation room in Su Province. Your father called and told us to let the family go and see him for the last time."
"The day his father and I arrived, a doctor happened to come and change his dressing." She told Lin Nanfeng frankly that he had a large wound on his neck that had just been stitched up. I heard someone had cut his throat.
"He was plugged full of tubes and even the doctors said he was going to die. But he was determined and managed to pull himself through."
Liu Xinrou said: "After he woke up, we found out that the bones in his hands and feet had been broken and he couldn't move at all."
"They finally fixed his bones. Doctor Liang from your Su Province said that they were pressed for time during the first surgery and the bones weren't fixed properly. If he wants to join the army, he's not in his current physical condition. Bones that have been broken once are very fragile and can't withstand too much pressure and will easily break again."
After hearing this, Lin Nanfeng felt that there must be a twist in the story. Otherwise, if Liang Heng had saved him, he shouldn't still be lying in bed after so long.
Liu Xinrou got a little excited when she said this. She grabbed Lin Nanfeng's hand and said in a high-pitched voice, "We didn't want him to be a soldier anymore. Now that he can't be a soldier anymore, it would be great if he could be demobilized.
I have four children, three sons and one daughter. My eldest son is an artilleryman and is now a regimental commander. My second son is an air force officer and is now a lieutenant colonel. My third daughter also married a soldier and has moved to another province with the army.
"He's the youngest in the family, and his father and I wanted to keep him by our side, but we didn't expect that we couldn't even keep him!"
"I really don't know what you kids are thinking. You all want to join the army at such a young age. Your bones are harder than steel. It's useless even if you smash them with a hammer!
Boys are fine, but why are girls so stubborn too? "
Xiang Guifan's body was wrapped in gauze, but his face was not. At this time, Lin Nanfeng saw a vigorous expression on his face.
He was so careless during such a serious situation, so he didn't get enough punishment.
Lin Nanfeng is also someone else's child, and she understands the feelings of her elders.
But she and Xiang Guifan actually had the same stance. Seeing that Liu Xinrou's words were full of complaints and were about to affect her, Lin Nanfeng quickly changed the subject and asked:
"Aunt Liu, why is he still lying in bed?"
She was originally speaking with anger, but when Lin Nanfeng asked this, tears welled up in her eyes in the blink of an eye.
Lin Nanfeng felt quite embarrassed. What did she say wrongly?
Xiang Guifan had an expression that said, "I don't expect you to help me coax people anymore."
He completely gave up on Lin Nanfeng.
Liu Xinrou sobbed and said angrily, "I heard from Doctor Liang that if I knock the bone apart and then reconnect it, it will be the same as before.
My injury had already healed, but this brat secretly asked Doctor Liang to come to Beijing to knock out the bone and then reattach it. Later, the doctor refused to let me move because he was worried that the recovery would not be good. Isn’t that infuriating?
Lin Nanfeng could only say this and take it as he pleased.
"It's very infuriating," she said.
Liu Xinrou continued, "I happened to see him that day and was so frightened that I fainted. That doctor and his father broke his bones alive. Isn't that infuriating?"
"It's infuriating, it's too much, they are so cruel, how can they do this!"
Lin Nanfeng thought to himself: I should have cleaned up the scene before doing this. It would be strange if an ordinary person didn't feel a trauma after seeing this scene.
Xiang Guifan glanced at her and thought to himself: Why are you pretending? If you are not cruel, then you are a refined scholar?
Ask who would believe you?
Liu Xinrou bit her lip. She still felt scared when she thought about it now. It must have been so painful to break a bone without any medicine!
Lin Nanfeng was much more cautious when she spoke again. She asked, "So he's better now, right? He's lying in bed recuperating?"
Liu Xinrou wiped her tears, and her expression improved a lot. She said:
"He's been in bed for over a month. Doctor Liang suggested two months would be best, and that's about it."
Lin Nanfeng: "If he can't speak, will he be able to speak again in the future?"
"Yes, but he needs time to recover, maybe three or two years, or maybe even sooner. It all depends on his condition."
"I asked his father to help him submit his transfer application, but the father and son refused to listen." Liu Xinrou sneered at the man on the bed, "As expected of a common surname, Xiang. He still sides with you at the crucial moment."
Xiang Guifan's eyes kept rolling around, and he didn't look at his old mother.
Lin Nanfeng tried to smooth things over, saying, "A family with more surnames does have an advantage. It's the same in my family."
Ever since the old comrade changed the twins' surnames, the status of the Qin family has changed.
In Su Province, many people laughed at Qin Shouguo, saying that the Qin family had become the Lin family and that he had married into a family with the surname Lin. Later, Qin Xiaomei also wanted to follow the surname Lin, but fortunately her mother stopped her.
Liu Xinrou nodded in agreement, and her eyes looked at her son with even more resentment.
Xiang Guifan rolled his eyes and said, "Just shut up. I don't want to listen to you anymore. You haven't said a single nice word so far!"
Seeing that he was annoyed with him, Lin Nanfeng was particularly tactful and prepared to leave.
