Chapter 26 Getting Familiar
The two of them had a very warm meal, just like an ordinary couple, chatting while eating. Gu Jinghong didn't talk much, and most of the words were spoken by Su Ying, but he would respond.
In fact, Su Ying didn't know that such conversation was not allowed at the dinner table in his family. No talking while eating or sleeping was allowed. The rules in his family were very strict, and all his brothers and sisters grew up under such education.
But he liked listening to Su Ying talk. Su Ying had to go to work every day, and it seemed that except for the time for meals, she didn't have time to talk to him so much.
"What exactly does your job entail?"
Gu Jinghong suddenly asked.
Su Ying paused holding the spoon and smiled at Gu Jinghong.
"I work in the hospital's logistics department, doing odd jobs."
Gu Jinghong frowned.
"The job Ye Guanjun assigned you is to do odd jobs in the logistics department?"
Su Ying fed him a spoonful of rice.
"It should be the hospital's arrangement. No, if I can't hold on, I'll quit. I desperately needed a job before because I was worried that my mother and I wouldn't be able to survive in Jiangcheng. But now I have you to support me, and my mother has some money. I can slowly find a job, or find a way to make money myself. In any case, I won't be in the same predicament as before."
Su Ying picked up the cup, put the straw into Gu Jinghong's mouth, and fed him a few sips of warm water.
"My dear, don't worry. I want to tell you about your illness. I've read your medical history. A bullet pierced your spine, causing spinal nerve rupture. Theoretically, it's untreatable with current medical technology, but it's not impossible to try. It's just... there may be risks. I don't have a specific plan yet. Let me think about it and consult some medical books."
Gu Jinghong listened to her carefully, and suddenly felt that she seemed really professional.
"Where do you know all this?"
Even medical professors in Beijing don't know much about this disease. How could Su Ying, a country girl, know so much about it?
Su Ying smiled awkwardly.
"Haha, I just read about it in some medical books, and I also heard a little about it from my master."
"Your master? The barefoot doctor?"
Su Ying could only nod reluctantly. It was a bit ridiculous to say that a barefoot doctor knew about this disease. If he had such medical skills, he would have worked in a big hospital long ago.
"My master is a traveler who came to our village. I'm lucky, so lucky. Well, let me peel a pear for you. Drinking water after eating is good for your health."
After she finished speaking, she stood up in a hurry and left without even having time to finish the half chicken leg.
Gu Jinghong has seen all kinds of people over the years, so how could he not see through this little trick of Su Ying? He just smiled helplessly and did not expose her.
Su Ying was peeling the pear, feeling annoyed. She should have thought of a reason earlier, but now her reason is full of loopholes.
Forget it. Just like Gu Jinghong asked, if she refused to admit it, then that would be fine. Could he still jump up and hit her?
As usual, I wiped Gu Jinghong's body in the evening. He still had his eyes tightly closed, and his body was stiff, as if his head couldn't move.
Su Ying took special care of her thighs and buttocks because these two areas were most prone to ulceration. Finally, she used some talcum powder and let out a long sigh after cleaning up.
When I looked up, I found that Chief Gu was frowning, his eyes were closed, and his ears and face were red.
She didn't think anything of it at first, but when she saw his expression, she inexplicably felt her face getting a little hot.
"Well, go to bed early. I'll prepare the diaper for you and wash it tomorrow."
After saying that, she lowered her head to tuck the quilt for him. Gu Jinghong was breathing heavily, and his warm breath sprayed on her face. Su Ying's heart also beat uncontrollably.
