"I'm here! Aunt Lu! Uncle Chen! Meng Yi is awake!"
Shi Huan held Meng Yi's hand, tears glistening in her eyes, but the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and she looked like she was crying with joy.
Lu Mei and Chen Da were also happy to see this, and they came over and asked if he felt any discomfort and whether he wanted to call a doctor to come and take a look.
"Where is this? You guys are making so much noise, can't I sleep?"
On the next bed, Chen Li suddenly sat up, his face pale, his eyes staring straight ahead. If he hadn't spoken, he would have looked like a corpse in a horror movie.
"Son! You're awake!" Lu Mei pulled Chen Da to Chen Li's bedside, her eyes smiling like crescent moons.
"It's good that you're awake!" Chen Da looked at his son sitting on the hospital bed. Except for his pale face, he seemed to be in good spirits.
But he was also worried about whether the two children would have any sequelae. Thinking of this, he decided to ask the doctor to come and take a look.
But it was past five in the morning, and there was only one doctor on duty and two nurses in Tent 1. Chen Da saw that it was not the doctor who came to check on him last night, and he didn't know whether he would see him.
"Doctor! My son was in a coma last night and just woke up now. I'm afraid he's still feeling unwell somewhere. Can you help me check it out?"
Chen Da spoke cautiously, fearing that the doctor would not go with him.
"Okay! I'll go check it out!"
Chen Da didn't expect that the doctor was so easy to talk to. He quickly opened the curtain of the tent and followed behind with a smile on his face.
After the doctor's examination, Chen Li and Meng Yi were found to be fine except that they were a little weak and needed to be on IV drip for another one to two days.
"Mom! Look, the doctor told you to eat something good to replenish my body. There's nothing else to worry about!"
On the hospital bed, Chen Li was already eating the century egg and lean meat porridge made by Grandma Qiao with relish.
"You kid, you just woke up and thought about eating! Look at Meng Yi, he has been talking to Shi Huan for a long time!"
Lu Mei scolded her son with a smile.
"Just let him eat more! If it's not enough, I have more!"
After sending the doctor on duty out of the tent, Chen Da came back and saw his son eating happily with a smile on his face. He was so worried when he was looking for someone last night.
But he couldn't show it, for fear of scaring Lu Mei and Shi Huan.
"Where's Keke! I feel like it was Su Keke and Grandma Qiao who saved Chen Li and me yesterday!"
Meng Yi tried to recall the scene when he was rescued last night. He first heard Su Keke and Grandma Qiao talking, and then he seemed to see Su Keke in a daze.
"No way! Why would Su Keke go to the epicenter of the earthquake? Besides, we are buried so deep, only the official rescue team can dig us out in a short time."
Chen Li finished eating the half box of lean meat porridge in his hand, frowning as if he was thinking about what happened after he was buried last night.
"Come on! It was the official rescue team that saved you!"
"I'm telling you seriously now. Don't be stupid and rush forward in everything. You went to save people, but who saved you when you were in danger?"
"Except for us on the 20th floor, no one will care about your life or death. Don't sign up for work in the future. You are not allowed to go for any rescue mission! If the higher-ups don't agree, you'll have to resign and go home!"
When Lu Mei heard about the official, she got angry and said, "The situation is still uncontrollable. If it's uncontrollable, why are you sending people out to rescue? Isn't that sending people to die?" It seems that they don't care if it's not their own child.
"Mom...Mom...I'm not angry anymore! I'll listen to you from now on, okay?"
Chen Li knew that when his mother got angry, it would be very scary, so he had to show weakness now.
Shi Huan also held Meng Yi's hand and asked him to promise that he would never participate in such a dangerous mission again.
“Okay, okay!”
Meng Yi also raised his hand to promise. When he knew that Shi Huan had broken his head and hands in order to find him, he felt so distressed. He also reflected on his and Chen Li's impulsive decision and decided to do everything within their capabilities in the future.
Lu Mei was so angry about being kicked out by her son that she forgot about what Meng Yi asked Su Keke.
"Xiao Meng, Keke and Aunt Qiao stayed here until most of the night. The doctor said you won't wake up until the morning, so I let them go back first."
Lu Mei finished talking to Meng Yi with a smile, then turned around and said to Chen Li with a serious expression, "I'm telling you two, this time it's all thanks to Aunt Qiao and Keke who came to save you, otherwise, we probably wouldn't be able to see you again in this lifetime."
"You two must remember the good things about Aunt Qiao and Coco, and don't mention official things to me for no reason. It gives me a headache just listening to them!"
"Yeah! We got it!" Chen Li and Meng Yi nodded repeatedly, remembering the key points. Don't mention the official side, but remember the good things about Coco and Grandma Qiao.
Since there was nothing to do with her son, Lu Mei asked Chen Da to go back to Villa No. 5 and catch up on his sleep.
Chen Da felt that as a grown man, it was not appropriate for him to live with Su Keke, so he decided to go back to Building 1.
"You should stay there if Aunt Qiao and Coco asked you to. Why are you being so hypocritical? Do you have a car to go back to Building 1?"
Lu Mei rolled her eyes at her husband, stuffed two keys into his hands, and asked him to take the empty thermos box with the food they had eaten back home.
"When you go back, wash the lunch box before going to bed, and don't wake up Aunt Qiao and Coco. I live in the first room behind the tea room on the first floor. Wash the lunch box and go to bed quickly!"
"Also, drive carefully! Coco's car is very valuable!"
Lu Mei kept chattering as she sent Chen Da to the parking lot opposite the tent and drove away.
…
It was already past ten o'clock when Su Keke woke up. According to Grandma Qiao, she got up just in time for lunch.
Grandma Qiao got up at around 7 o'clock in the morning. When she saw that the thermal lunch boxes had been brought back and washed in the kitchen, she knew that Lu Mei and the others had gone to replace Chen Da and come back to rest.
Chen Da just came back to sleep in the morning, so Grandma Qiao didn't call him to get up for breakfast.
Su Keke said last night that she wanted to sleep until she woke up naturally, so Grandma Qiao naturally didn't call her to get up.
For breakfast alone, Grandma Qiao simply fried a vegetable pancake and made a cup of oatmeal. She took it to the coffee table in the living room and watched the glutinous rice balls being happily eaten by the cat through the French window. The person and the cat had breakfast together.
After Su Keke finished washing up and went downstairs, Grandma Qiao was already preparing lunch.
She stewed pig's trotter soup early in the morning, adding mushrooms, soybeans and wolfberries.
Chen Da likes to eat crabs, so Grandma Qiao made him scrambled eggs with crabs, tiger skin chicken feet, stir-fried green beans with meat, and pan-fried tofu cubes at noon.
These dishes were cooked in large quantities. Before the three of them had lunch, Grandma Qiao packed the food for the four people in the hospital and put it in thermos bags, especially the pig's trotter soup. She also filled two large jars for Chen Li and Meng Yi to nourish their bodies.
After the dishes were ready, Grandma Qiao asked Su Keke to call Chen Da to come for dinner.
"Grandma Qiao, what if Uncle Chen hasn't woken up yet?" Su Keke asked.
"Go knock on the door first! We shouldn't wake him up if he's not asleep yet. Keep the food warm in the pot. After we finish eating, we'll go deliver food to Lu Mei and the others. There's nothing at the official hospital, and we can't let the patients go hungry."
"Aunt Qiao, Coco! You guys are in the kitchen!"
Before Su Keke could call him, Chen Da had already gotten up. After sleeping for six hours, he looked much more energetic.
