I raised my arms and pointed my drooping hands toward him: "Uncle Qi, save me."
To be honest, it hurt so much that I wanted to die every minute.
After a series of surgeries, both of my arms were bandaged and plastered, hanging on my neck, which was very ugly. I kept smacking my lips in front of the mirror, thinking that my image was completely ruined. Uncle Qi said behind me: "Be content. If it were an ordinary hospital, it would take at least three months before you can move around, and it is not guaranteed to be as flexible as before. But with me, the plaster can be removed in one month, and your hand will be as good as normal. Wait another half a year, and the steel plate will be removed." I was moved, turned around, and bowed deeply: "Thank you, Uncle Qi." It is a good thing to have a friend with excellent medical skills when you are on the road often.
"Well, play chess with me."
"Uncle Qi, I'm already like this, how can I accompany you?"
"It's okay, just use your mouth to tell me and I'll help you make the moves."
I ate two plates with Uncle Qi, and then I staggered downstairs with my arms hanging. Jiu had been waiting for a long time, and when he saw me like this, he asked, "Are you ready?" I said, "About a month, and I'll be a brave man again by then." Jiu said, "Well, if you need anything, just let us know, and we'll do it for you." I thought to myself, there are some things you can't do for others.
It's already like this, I can only rest and recuperate. I returned to Chenggao and lived in the dormitory. Food, clothing, housing and transportation were very inconvenient. It's no exaggeration to say that even going to the toilet was a problem. After two days of living there, I couldn't stand it anymore, so I temporarily moved to the small villa where Wang Jinbao used to live. Taozi took the initiative to take care of me, and Zhuantou occasionally came to stay for a night. Taozi is gentle and considerate, and is very good at this. She is fully responsible for my daily life. Zhou Mo and Bai Qing can't do this, so they can only come to accompany me when they are free to relieve my boredom.
Every morning, Taozi helped me dress, go to the toilet, wash, and eat, meticulously. I was embarrassed at first, but she was very generous, so I didn't think about it. After finishing all these in the morning, Taozi and Zhuantou went to class, and then a few brothers from the Black Tiger Gang came to accompany me. When I say accompany, it actually means renting pirated discs and watching movies or TV series together. It was at that time that I watched almost all the movies in Hong Kong in the 1990s. That was really the golden age of Hong Kong movies. Chow Yun-fat, Stephen Chow, Andy Lau, Tony Leung, Jackie Chan, Jet Li... That era is gone forever.
When Taozi was not around, I would hold my urine until noon, so I tried not to drink a single drop of water. After about a week, I gradually adapted to life without being able to move my hands. I was still thinking about the two old men, so I asked Jiu to take me to the construction site. Jiu was still driving Su Xiaobai's Volvo, running red lights, speeding, and crossing the line every day. When I arrived at the entrance of the construction site, I saw a notice posted on the wall. I went down to take a look, and it turned out to be posted by the Venus Security Company. They had cleared my grievances and reappointed me as the captain of the security team. At the gate, Captain Chang temporarily replaced me, and the security guards performed their duties, and everything was in order.
When he saw me coming in, Captain Chang came out and said some polite words to me with a smile on his face, asking me to rest as long as I wanted on behalf of the company. After chatting with him for a while, Jiu continued to pull me in. When we arrived at the shed in the northeast corner, Jiu helped me open the car door, and I went in with my arms hanging. Yu's father was sleeping on the bed, and my dad was reading a newspaper.
"Dad." I called out and walked over.
My dad looked up at me, calmly put away the newspaper, and asked, "How are you?"
"Not bad." I shook my arm and said, "The doctor said that the plaster can be removed in a month, but the steel plate will have to be removed in half a year."
"Yeah." My dad nodded: "It's already very fast. Your doctor friend has good skills, right?"
