Chapter 77 Hospital
Chu Dan, who just happened to come back and was blocked outside the crowd of people watching the excitement, finally rushed over, unable to hide his excitement: "What good things have you done again?"
He felt very sorry and said, "Why don't you take me with you? Otherwise, I can also report it."
Chu Hong herself had just come to her senses, and she looked dazed: "If I said, I didn't know it would turn out like this, would you believe me?"
She just wanted to give Gu Ci a good guy card at the beginning, but who could have thought that she would go too far and it would turn out like this?
Gu Ci also looked excited: "I'm sorry for making you worry about me."
He was certain in his heart that Chu Hong liked him, otherwise why would she take so much trouble to care about him?
Chu Hong didn't want to explain anymore: "Big sister, you and Xiao Yuer rest here for a while, Chu Dan and I will go buy some noodles."
When they went over, there were already quite a few people queuing up to buy meals in the cafeteria.
If you are frugal, you can buy whole grain steamed buns. You don’t need tickets. Four of them for one cent are enough to fill you up.
A boiled egg was also seven cents, and no ticket was required. Unfortunately, the purchase was limited, and each person could only buy one.
There were also white flour steamed buns for three at one cent, and you also needed one or two taels of food coupons.
A bowl of ordinary vegetable noodles costs 1.6 cents, and requires two taels of food coupons.
A bowl of shredded pork noodles cost 38 cents, plus two taels of food coupons.
With the hospital bill, Chu Hong bought four servings of shredded pork noodles and four eggs.
It’s not that she doesn’t want to buy more, but this is the most she can buy.
Fortunately, Chu Dan and her friends bought two servings of dumplings from the state-owned restaurant.
Nowadays, he likes to bring a big lunch box when he goes out, which is filled with a portion of noodles. Chu Yan couldn’t finish it, so he shared a bowl of shredded pork noodles with Xiao Yuer.
Gu Ci ate a lunch box of shredded pork noodles by himself, and Chu Hong and her sisters shared two bowls of shredded pork noodles, and each had a few dumplings, so they were all full.
Gu Ci couldn't help but mutter, "The food in the hospital is so good, I don't want to be discharged."
It has been a long time since he had eaten so much and eaten so well.
Chu Dan asked in confusion: "Are you still not getting enough to eat at the educated youth camp?"
"It can make you 70% full." Gu Ci smiled bitterly: "It's just that our cooking skills are not good. We just stew in one pot without any oil or water."
Chu Hong glanced at the bed at the door and said, "Hey, is the old man discharged from the hospital?"
There were too many people around before and she was quite nervous, so she didn't have time to pay attention to others.
Now that I had eaten and drunk my fill, I realized that the ward was too quiet.
Gu Ci said, "After you left, his family came and said that his aunt was hit by a bicycle on the way to see him. Is he still in the operating room?"
"The old man was worried about his wife, so he was helped to wait at the door of the operating room."
Chu Hong said dryly: "This is really a double whammy."
I just hope that the old couple’s children and grandchildren are filial, otherwise it would be too pitiful.
After eating and drinking, Chu Yan felt much better and gossiped for a while: "Look, there is a quilt on the bed. They said it was prepared for the grandma who was hit by a bicycle."
Chu Dan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Indeed, in this case, it would be great if only one family member could take care of it."
Chu Tong said to Gu Ci: "The captain said he will go back at 2 o'clock this afternoon. Do you have anything else to buy?"
"We have everything we need." Gu Ci was a little reluctant to see Chu Hong go home soon, but he still smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm almost well now."
"And the brothers and sisters-in-law in your village are also very welcoming and often come to see us."
Chu Hong glanced at him and said, "Just lie down and take a rest. We'll leave first."
He glanced at Chu Yan who was nestled obediently beside his shoulder and added, "Don't rush to leave the hospital. Wait until Chu Yan gets better before leaving."
Anyway, there was no one else in the ward, so she didn't mind speaking bluntly: "Chu Yan is too thin. While you can come to the hospital, stay for two more days to recuperate."
If Chu Yan hadn't gotten in trouble while rescuing someone this time, he wouldn't have been sent to the hospital.
There are many people in the family, and even with the help from her and Gu Ci, it is impossible for them to have enough to eat.
Gu Ci thought about it and said, "You are right. I will be discharged from the hospital later."
Chu Hong reached out and tested the temperature of Chu Yan's forehead, and said gently: "Don't be stubborn, you must wait until you are fully recovered before going back, understand?"
"I'll bring Chuchu to see you tomorrow."
According to the regulations, Lao Chu and his friends cannot leave the place where they are exiled, but Chu Chu is still young, so it’s okay to bring her out.
Chu Yan's eyes lit up, and his voice was a little hoarse because of the inflammation in his throat caused by the cold: "Thank you, sister, I'm much better now. Please tell my grandparents for me so that they don't have to worry about me."
"Remember," Chu Hong rubbed his head, "Drink more water, get more sleep, eat more, and we'll come see you tomorrow."
When Gu Ci heard that she would come again tomorrow, he also smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
At this moment, the door of the ward was pushed open, and several doctors, nurses and family members came in.
The old man with an injured leg was helped back by his family and lay on the hospital bed.
Lying on the bed next to him was his wife, an old lady with an injured arm and a bandage around her neck. There were also several swellings on her face and forehead, and it seemed that she had fallen quite hard.
What surprised Chu Hong even more was that the middle-aged woman who was taking care of the aunt was Aunt He, with whom she had done several transactions.
Both parties exchanged glances and were shocked.
"Chu Hong and Chu Dan, why are you also in the hospital?" Aunt He asked with concern, "Who is in the hospital?"
Nowadays, few people go to the hospital to visit patients. Even relatives will wait until the patient returns home before visiting.
Because everyone thinks that the hospital is not a good place and should be avoided if possible.
Chu Hong also greeted politely: "Hello, Auntie, this is the educated youth from our nearby village. He rescued a few children from our village who fell into the water. We came to see them."
Aunt He looked at Gu Ci in surprise after hearing this, and then praised him: "What a helpful comrade."
Then he leaned close to Chu Hong and whispered, "My family has also been hit by many misfortunes. A few days ago, my father-in-law accidentally slipped and broke his leg. Today, my mother-in-law was knocked down by a cyclist on her way to the hospital."
"The elderly need nutrition. Can you buy me some chicken?"
"There are also lotus root dumplings and taro dumplings. Can you sell me some more?"
She was afraid that Chu Hong would refuse, so she played the victim again: "I am not a good cook. Now that the elderly are in the hospital, I don't know what to cook for three meals a day. Can you help me find a tight-lipped sister who is good at cooking?"
"Help me cook for a month, and deliver meals to my parents-in-law. I'll give you thirty, no, forty dollars."
There will always be brave men when there is a big reward.
When Chu Dan heard this, he immediately volunteered: "Aunt, do you think I can do it?"
Chu Hong was not very willing in her heart.
It’s not that I feel that being a nanny is inferior, but I’m afraid of encountering difficult elderly people.
Who knew that while she was still thinking about how to refuse, her sister agreed immediately.
Aunt He grabbed Chu Dan and smiled: "Good boy, if you are willing, it would be great."
Then he looked at Chu Hong: "So let's just say this?"
