Shen Qiqi rubbed her aching shoulders and looked in the direction of the voice, only to see Xu Jing standing at the door with a mysterious look on her face.
"What's going on? Why are you so mysterious?" Shen Qiqi asked curiously.
Xu Jing came over with a grin and pulled out a cloth bag from behind her back: "Ding ding ding ding! Look what treasure I found!"
Shen Qiqi took the cloth bag and opened it. It was filled with colorful fabrics and needles and threads.
"Is this... handicraft?" Her eyes lit up and she instantly understood what Xu Jing meant.
"That's right! I heard that the garment factory in the village has received a batch of orders and needs people to help with some simple sewing work. We can do it at home and earn some extra money to supplement the family income." Xu Jing looked proud, as if she had discovered some new world.
A warm feeling surged in Shen Qiqi's heart. It was really like someone gave her a pillow when she was sleepy.
She immediately perked up, picked up the fabric and looked at it carefully. They were all simple styles, which were a piece of cake for her.
"Great! This is really timely!" Shen Qiqi said excitedly, as if she saw the dawn of hope.
As soon as they said it, Shen Qiqi and Xu Jing took action immediately.
They found needles, thread and scissors and set up a simple workbench in the ward.
The originally depressing atmosphere in the ward became lively because of this sudden handicraft.
Shen Qiqi's fingers flew, the needle and thread danced in her hands like elves, and finished products were born in her hands one after another.
She operated skillfully, as if she had returned to modern society, unleashing her creativity in her own studio.
When Lu Qing came back and saw this scene, a relieved smile appeared on his face.
He walked to Shen Qiqi's side and watched her busy figure quietly, his eyes full of love.
"Let me help you." Lu Qing said gently, picked up the scissors and helped Shen Qiqi cut the fabric.
The two cooperated with each other with great understanding, and a warm atmosphere flowed between them.
Shen Qiqi felt Lu Qing's love and smiled happily.
In the ward, the sounds of needle and thread and the clicking of scissors interweave into a beautiful song of labor.
The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the two of them, stretching their figures out like a beautiful painting.
Old Mrs. Lu looked at the scene in front of her, and a complex light flashed in her turbid eyes.
She leaned on a cane and trembled as she walked to Shen Qiqi's side. Her lips moved as if she wanted to say something...
Old Mrs. Lu was leaning on a cane, but her weather-beaten eyes seemed to have the wrinkles ironed out, becoming less stubborn and more gentle.
She looked at Shen Qiqi's nimble fingers, then at the piles of neatly cut fabrics piled on the corner of the table. The corners of her mouth twitched, as if she was about to say something, but in the end she only managed to utter, "This...this work is quite strenuous, isn't it?"
Shen Qiqi was busy threading the needle, and when she heard the old lady's words, she thought there was something wrong with her ears.
The sun rises from the west?
The old lady didn't continue to nag about her folk remedies, but instead asked about whether she was tired?
This development is a bit magical!
"It's okay, grandma, it's just a little straining on my eyes." Shen Qiqi didn't even raise her head, but her hands didn't slow down.
Old Madam Lu hummed, slowly moved to Shen Qiqi's side, and snatched the semi-finished product from her hand.
"Take a break, I'll help you."
"What?" Shen Qiqi almost dropped her jaw in shock.
She looked at Old Lady Lu, then at the others, and found that everyone had the same expression as her, as if they had seen a ghost.
Xu Jing was even more exaggerated. She rubbed her eyes and muttered, "I must not have woken up today. I must be dreaming!"
Old Mrs. Lu rolled her eyes and threaded the needle deftly. Although her movements were slow, they were quite skillful.
Wow, this old lady is actually a hidden master of handicrafts?
As a family, we looked at each other, and the air was filled with a wonderful atmosphere of "I've never seen this before" and a hint of surprise.
The atmosphere instantly changed from being depressing to cheerful, just like the moon appearing after the clouds have parted.
The corners of Shen Qiqi's mouth couldn't help but rise, and her heart felt warm.
It seems that this old lady is not completely unreasonable!
However, this harmonious and warm scene did not last long.
Just when everyone was busy and happy, a painful groan suddenly came from the hospital bed.
Everyone gathered around immediately and saw that the patient was pale, with cold sweat on his forehead and his breathing became rapid.
"What...what happened?" Mother Lu asked in panic.
Shen Qiqi immediately stepped forward and carefully examined the patient. She found that the patient had some rashes on his body and his breathing was a little abnormal. She frowned and felt vaguely uneasy.
"It might be a complication." Shen Qiqi said in a deep voice, a layer of gloom covering her heart.
She hurried to the doctor's office, wanting to consult the doctor as soon as possible on how to deal with it.
When she returned to the ward, she found Lu Qing holding a towel and carefully wiping the patient's forehead, his eyes full of worry.
Lu Qing looked up and saw Shen Qiqi coming back, with a questioning look in his eyes, "What did the doctor say?"
Shen Qiqi took a deep breath, her eyes firm, "The doctor said...must..."
