Volume 1 Chapter 83 Grandpa Sheng is in the Hospital 1
He also filled the military kettle with hot water and put two drops of spiritual spring water in it.
Sheng Wanyan then carried dinner into the hospital, found Grandpa Sheng's ward, and saw Father Sheng sitting there looking at Grandpa Sheng.
There were three patients in the ward, and Sheng's father had to pay extra money to change the ward.
There were more people in other wards, with a total of five beds, and with the addition of their family members, it was very noisy and chattering.
Father Sheng was worried that Grandpa Sheng wouldn’t get a good rest, so he paid extra money and replaced him with a seat with fewer people.
He worked hard to make money so that his family could live a better life. There was no need for him to suffer at this time.
There are no private wards now. Unless you are a special personnel in a state-owned unit, you are not qualified to go to a private ward.
Besides, most people won’t waste this money. It’s just for living, so why spend a few extra dollars?
When Mr. Sheng saw Sheng Wanyan going out alone so late at night, he was so scared that his heart almost jumped out of his chest.
"Why are you out so late? The roads are very dangerous at night."
Mr. Sheng always thought that his daughter was very pretty and was always afraid that someone would stare at her when she walked alone at night.
So as long as Sheng Wanyan had not returned home after dark, Sheng's father would go to pick her up in person.
“I can ride a bicycle very fast.”
"How's your milk?"
"Grandma is fine. Mom is talking to her."
"This is the dinner that Mom made for you, and this..."
Sheng Wanyan secretly handed him 50 yuan, and Sheng's father quickly put it into the inner pocket of his coat.
After all, there are other people in the ward, and the 50 yuan is a huge sum of money, so we have to watch it carefully.
"Go back quickly. It's dark at night and you can't see the road."
Father Sheng was afraid that she would be in danger if she went back too late, so he kept persuading her to leave quickly.
"Okay, I'll go back now."
"Wear the military coat to cover yourself at night. I'll take your place tomorrow to rest."
Sheng Wanyan plans to take a leave of absence and take turns with Sheng's father to take care of Grandpa Sheng these days.
"Okay, be careful on the road."
Father Sheng was so worried. Although people were honest and simple these days, his daughter was so pretty. It would be terrible if she was targeted by someone.
It's just not good to not have an extra man at home.
The women in the family have to take care of everything, which is why Sheng's mother hopes that Sheng Wanze can stay at home.
It was already past nine o'clock in the evening when Sheng Wanyan returned home, and her mother was waiting for her.
She just didn't react for a moment and let her daughter go to the hospital alone so late.
It's pitch black outside at night. What if something happens?
Sheng's mother was walking back and forth in the living room. When she heard her open the door, she hurried to open it.
I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw that she came back safe and sound.
"Glad you're back. I'll deliver dinner next time."
"Mom, I'm going back to the factory tomorrow to take a week off. Dad and I will take turns on the shift."
"Okay, I'll take some time off too and cook for you at home."
It wouldn't do to leave Grandma Sheng alone at home. She's already feeling a little uncomfortable because of the worry, and there's no reason for her to cook three meals a day by herself.
"If your brother were here, you wouldn't have to run around in our house in the middle of the night..."
Mother Sheng sighed and sat down on the stool with some emotion. Why didn’t she have one more child?
"Mom, my brother is such a great guy. Besides, it only happened once in a while. It's okay."
"Think about it, your son is defending his country. As a mother, you can't have such thoughts."
Upon hearing this, Sheng's mother sighed again. Although that was what her daughter said, she was still thinking too simply.
My daughter will get married sooner or later, and Gu Tingxiao is also a soldier, so my daughter will definitely follow the army when the time comes.
There is no reason for my daughter to stay with them for the rest of her life, as her in-laws will definitely have objections.
By then, there will be four old people left in the family. If something happens to the elderly in the family again, how can she and Sheng's father cope with it?
She and Sheng's father are both in their 40s. How many more years can they work?
Now they have their daughter to help run around, but if something happens to the elderly at home, she and Sheng's father really won't know who to ask for help.
Is there any difference with four empty nesters?
The more Mother Sheng thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt. Her son was her pride, but he did not shoulder the responsibilities that he should have as a son.
"Mom, don't think too much and go to bed."
Mother Sheng nodded. What's the point of thinking so much now? The family is in this situation and they can only take one step at a time.
"You should rest early too."
Sheng Wanyan nodded. She was also very tired today. She had been worried all night and felt a little exhausted.
———
The next day, Sheng Wanyan went back to the factory to ask for leave. When Director Li heard that someone in her family was sick, he immediately approved her leave.
After finishing her breakfast, Sheng Wanyan set off for the hospital carrying breakfast for her father.
As soon as I got there, I saw Father Sheng sitting by Grandpa Sheng's bed, dozing off on a stool with stubble all over his face.
"Dad, go home and rest."
Father Sheng woke up and was relieved to see her. He had been worried last night whether his daughter would be in danger on the road and he had never let go of his worries.
"Daughter, how is home?"
"Everything is fine. Mom will take some time off to take care of the family. You can go home and rest. Come back in the evening."
"Okay, you stay with your grandfather first, I'll replace you in the afternoon."
Mr. Sheng's eyes were full of red bloodshot. He had only slept for two hours the whole night.
Sheng Wanyan nodded, and seeing that he looked tired, she asked him to finish breakfast and leave quickly.
Father Sheng even took the lunch box away, and the first thing he did when he got home was to clean himself and catch up on some sleep.
Mother Sheng didn't dare to disturb him and let him have a good rest.
I prepared lunch for myself, had a few bites with Grandma Sheng, and then brought lunch to Sheng Wanyan.
Sheng Wanyan sat beside the bed and reached out to secretly take Grandpa Sheng's pulse.
Grandpa Sheng's operation was very successful. As long as he rests well, there will be no problem. But he needs to pay attention to the wound to avoid infection.
Grandpa Sheng's bed was at the innermost, and the patients in the other two beds were an old lady and a middle-aged man.
"My dear, what's wrong with your grandfather? Why is it that you, a granddaughter, have to take care of him?"
The old lady in the next bed looked at her as if she were a piece of merchandise.
Out of politeness, Sheng Wanyan simply responded.
"Minor ailments."
The old lady in the next bed obviously didn't believe it when she heard it, because she had heard this morning that the patient next door had an operation.
How can surgery be a minor illness or pain?
This little girl is really good at bragging!
"Where is your grandson? Why didn't he come to take care of him?"
"It's so inconvenient for a girl like you to take care of an old man!"
Sheng Wanyan ignored her. The old lady kept asking questions as if she was checking her household registration. She was not a relative or friend, so why should she answer so many questions?
The old lady in the next bed also realized that she didn't want to pay attention to her, so she could only mutter a few words in a low voice.
Grandpa Sheng hasn't woken up yet. Sheng Wanyan can't stand the smell of hospitals in this era and feels like vomiting.
