After lunch, Feng Zhiyi felt sleepy because of the medication she had received, so she lay down on the bed and took a nap.
She slept until Mayor Zhou and his family arrived at the hospital to visit her, bringing gifts. She instinctively looked around, only to find the room empty; Lu Lingxiao was not there.
I don't know when he got up.
"Little sister, your husband has gone back to his unit on business. He asked me to tell you."
Seeing that she was looking for Lu Lingxiao, Feng Henglin quickly told her where Lu Lingxiao was, and then helped her raise the headboard so that she could lean against it and talk.
Then he added, "My brother-in-law specifically told me to make it clear to you that when the military leaders needed to see him, the police officer came to pick him up. When he left, he saw that you were still asleep, so he didn't wake you up."
Feng Zhiyi nodded, indicating that she understood.
Just as the brother and sister finished speaking, Mayor Zhou and his wife, Old Mrs. Zhou, and Zhou Jiahao walked in.
Grandma Feng and Lu's mother followed closely behind.
After entering the house, Lu's mother went to pour water and make tea.
Grandma Zhou walked at the front, took a few big steps to the bedside, and then took Feng Zhiyi's hand and asked with heartache, "Zhiyi, you're awake. How are you feeling? Does your wound still hurt?"
"Thankfully, it doesn't hurt as much anymore. I'm sorry, Grandma Zhou, for making you worry."
Feng Zhiyi smiled and replied to her. Then she looked at Zhou Weiguo, Xie Huixian and Zhou Jiahao and greeted them, "Uncle Zhou, Aunt Zhou, Brother Zhou."
"Why!"
Zhou Weiguo and Xie Huixian responded in unison, but before Zhou Weiguo could speak, Xie Huixian interrupted him, saying, "You really scared us, thankfully you're alright now."
As the old saying goes, "Those who survive a great calamity are sure to have good fortune in the future!"
"You and Brigade Commander Lu are both very fortunate people. From now on, you will both stay away from disasters and live in peace!"
"Yes! Our Zhiyi's good fortune is yet to come!"
Grandma Zhou had just finished smiling when Zhou Weiguo continued with a laugh, "Zhiyi, do you know what I was thinking when I saw you lying unconscious on the bed?"
Feng Zhiyi smiled and looked at him.
"Was Uncle Zhou thinking at the time, 'It's over, the investor the city government just signed is now in the hospital, and the investment is probably going to fall through.'"
As soon as she finished speaking, Zhou Weiguo burst into laughter. He tapped her forehead from a distance and said, "You're such a prescient girl!"
"You're right. I was thinking at the time that this girl should have at least nine lives. A small injury like this is nothing to you."
"I've even planned that if you haven't woken up in a few days, I'll use the investment issue to provoke you and wake you up..."
Mayor Zhou's words were filled with deep concern and care.
After several encounters, the family had come to regard Feng Zhiyi as one of their own juniors.
Seeing her lying lifeless on the hospital bed, they felt an indescribable sadness in their hearts, hoping that she could wake up soon and live a peaceful and painless life from now on!
"Zhiyi, if you don't wake up soon, Grandma and Mother are about to go to the temple to burn incense and pray for blessings," Zhou Jiahao chimed in from the side.
"I'm sorry to have worried you."
Feng Zhiyi didn't know what to say except to apologize. She had seen everyone's concern, whether it was her relatives and friends or Grandma Zhou and the others; everyone was genuinely worried about her.
So after waking up, she has been obediently staying in the ward to rest, just as her elders told her. She hasn't even had a chance to go downstairs to see Qin An and the others yet.
However, Lu Lingxiao said that Qin An's leg was fine and that he could return to the army for training after he recovered.
She had previously worried that Qin An's leg might affect him. After all, as a soldier, if his legs were inconvenient, he would not be able to go to the battlefield, and the possibility of him staying by Lu Lingxiao's side would be very small.
Fortunately, Lu Lingxiao gave Qin An the spiritual spring water to drink, and the surgery was performed in time, so it will not affect Qin An's military career.
Zhou Weiguo and the others sat for about half an hour before getting up and leaving. "Zhiyi, take good care of your injury. We're going back now. I have a meeting at five o'clock, and I have to rush back to the city government."
When Feng Zhiyi heard that he had something to do, she didn't try to stop him. "Okay, Uncle Zhou, you can go ahead and do what you need to do. We can get together another day after I'm discharged from the hospital."
"Girl, you should rest well. Your aunt and I will come to see you again in a couple of days!"
"Zhiyi, we're leaving now..."
"good!"
Feng Zhiyi waved to them, smiling as she watched them leave the ward before turning her gaze away.
After that, a number of people came to the hospital to visit Feng Zhiyi.
The first to arrive were Ma Hongying, Yang Xiulan, Wang Shujuan, and Jian Daying. They had agreed that each of them would bring a bag of fruit, two bags of malted milk powder, two packets of brown sugar, two packets of pastries, and a bag of eggs.
These are all essential items during recovery.
The group had agreed to send these things to Feng Zhiyi to supplement her nutrition.
In addition, they each bought an old hen and two pig's feet, which they took to the Lu family's courtyard and gave to Feng Zhiyi's aunt and sister-in-law to stew for Feng Zhiyi to nourish her body.
After the rescue mission, the first thing their husbands said to them upon returning to their units was to express their sincere gratitude to their wives and the brigade commander. They said that without their wives and the brigade commander, their chances of returning alive would have been almost zero!
Every man in the family gave the same story, and when they returned, each of them had injuries, big and small. How could they not believe it?
