Chapter 016 Helping Him Go to the Toilet
The elder sister filled half of the lunch box for her with rice and the other half with vegetables. Although there was not much meat, it was very delicious.
Then he poured the stewed old hen soup into the lunch box, covered it with the lid, put it in a bag and handed it to Su Wan.
"alright."
"Thanks!"
Su Wan didn't expect that her elder sister would serve so much rice, about 400 grams. She probably didn't make much money. Her earnings came from the dishes and soup, especially the soup, which she made quite a lot, but not necessarily as much as she made from selling braised meat in a day.
Carrying the lunch box back to the hospital ward, Chen Yuan had fallen asleep without knowing when.
She walked in quietly, took the spoon she bought and started eating.
The pork was not raised with the feed of later generations, and the vegetables were not sprayed with pesticides. They tasted especially good. She drank up the food and the old hen soup, and then she remembered that now she had to kill the chicken herself when she bought it.
After eating and drinking, she washed her hands and feet, emptied Chen Yuan's urine bag and fixed it again, then moved the sofa closer to him and closed her eyes to sleep.
Chen Yuan slept soundly all night.
The next day, when the doctor arrived, Su Wan had already woken up. After the examination, he smiled and said, "Comrade Chen Yuan has a strong physique and is recovering very well and quickly. He'll be able to get out of bed in a few days."
"Thanks to several experts and the chief physician, my Chen Yuan was able to recover so quickly."
Su Wan meant this sincerely.
She looked at the doctor's information in this hospital these two days and asked others, and found out that the expert came to Ming Province from Beijing for a meeting. He happened to meet Chen Yuan who needed a craniotomy. Considering the special nature of Chen Yuan's job, the expert agreed to perform the operation without saying a word.
There are still differences between experts.
Just like the expert who performed the surgery on Chen Yuan, he specialized in treating senior leaders in Beijing. Su Wan felt really lucky to be able to come and help. If other doctors had performed a craniotomy, the incision would have been very large, but this expert had good medical skills and strong techniques. The incision was very small and he could remove all the blood clots, which was why Chen Yuan woke up so quickly and recovered so well.
On New Year's Eve, Su Wantian went to buy vegetables and meat with her meat and grain coupons at dawn. She also bought fish, various New Year's goods and food at the market, and was busy in the kitchen early in the morning.
By noon, she finally prepared a table full of dishes.
She cooked the chicken soup for three hours over low heat for five dishes and one soup because she was afraid it would get cold and she wanted it to be softer. The doctor said Chen Yuan could eat a little meat and rice, but not too much.
Su Wan placed the table in front of the bed, raised the head of the bed a little, and then poured a bowl of soup in front of Chen Yuan.
"Today is New Year's Eve. I asked the doctor. You can eat a little meat and rice, but not too much. I'll feed you first."
As she was carrying the soup, Chen Yuan said, "You just fed me. I'm not hungry now, but you must be hungry after being busy for so long. You eat first!"
"I'm not hungry..."
“Gurgle gurgle…”
As soon as she opened her mouth, her stomach growled unkindly and Su Wan's face turned red.
"Eat something first to fill your stomach. The soup is a little hot, so leave it for a while before eating."
Su Wan hummed, quickly filled a bowl of rice, picked up a piece of braised pork and put it in her mouth, eating it with relish.
She ate very quickly, and Chen Yuan just lay there watching her with a smile on his lips.
He only stopped after eating half a bowl of rice. Su Wan took the soup and fed it to Chen Yuan.
"I stewed this meat until it's very soft. A chicken drumstick is enough for you. I'll feed you half a bowl of rice later. You can have something non-spicy. I'll give you a piece of braised pork..."
After feeding him the soup, Su Wan gave Chen Yuan a chicken leg to eat. After he finished eating, Su Wan fed him half a bowl of rice and picked up two pieces of tender braised pork for him before putting down his bowl and chopsticks.
"You can't eat anymore. You can resume your normal diet in a few days."
"Thank you for your hard work these days."
"It's not hard, but I hope you can be more selfish next time and always remember that you still have parents and family. What will we do if you die?"
Chen Yuan lowered his eyes in silence. After a long moment, he whispered, "If I don't rush forward, everyone will die. I can't just watch them die there."
Soldiers of this era all have the righteousness of their country and family written deep in their hearts.
Su Wan picked up the half bowl of rice that she had not finished eating and found that it was cold, so she quickly poured hot soup into it.
She ate the braised pork with big mouthfuls. Beef brisket stewed with potatoes and sweet and sour spare ribs were her favorites. The braised fish and braised duck were also delicious, and she ate them with relish.
After eating two bowls of rice and drinking a bowl of chicken soup, Su Wan felt like she was alive again.
She was really hungry. Even after eating, her belly was still flat. She had been too thin recently. Even after eating two bowls of rice, there was no sign of weight gain. Maybe it was because she was young and the heavy physical work she did every day consumed her energy quickly. Her waist and abdomen had already become firmer, and her waistline was smoother.
After dinner, she washed the dishes, sat in front of the bed, wiped Chen Yuan's mouth and hands with a hot towel, and massaged his hands and feet.
While massaging, he said, "The doctor said you can get out of bed tomorrow, but the cashmere sweater I bought you is a pullover, so it might not fit you. Fortunately, you don't need to go out. Just stay in the ward, wear warm clothes, hospital gowns, and a military coat, and you shouldn't be cold."
"It's okay, just put on your military coat."
"I went out and bought you two pairs of furry shoes today. The weather here is too cold, and I didn't bring anything when I came here, so I had to buy them here."
"You should buy what you need. You don't need to save money. You can spend my salary."
It cost about a thousand yuan, which was still very useful in 1983.
The ward door was pushed open, and the young nurse stood at the door and said, "Comrade Su Wan, we are making dumplings tonight, come and have some!"
"Thank you. I've cooked here, so I won't go over. I'm worried about my husband being alone in the ward."
"We're making dumplings in the cafeteria on the first floor. Come over anytime you want to eat. We have people watching over you."
The young nurse said this and walked away with a smile.
Su Wan continued to massage Chen Yuan's legs, but there was a hint of smile in her eyes.
Half a year after her rebirth, she felt that although the conditions in the 1980s were difficult and there were no social software, every day was very fulfilling.
Chen Yuan looked at the smiling expression in her eyes, and the pain in his chest disappeared a little.
The next day, Chen Yuan got out of bed.
Basically, the bathroom was fine, but there was no toilet, so he still needed Su Wan to support him and take off his pants.
The first time Su Wan took off his pants, he was in a panic. Although he had looked at and touched his lower body in the past few days and had to wash it every time he wiped it, it was still a little different from going to the toilet.
Um……
When she goes to the toilet, she needs to use her hands to help her, otherwise she will pee everywhere.
