"They all say that Dr. Qiu from the Second Surgery Department likes you." After saying this, Zhang Feifei carefully watched the expression on Chen Chuchu's face, afraid that she would be angry and anxious.
Unexpectedly, the other person didn't react at all: "That's it? I don't care. Say whatever you want. Whether he likes me or not is none of my business. As long as I don't like him, that's enough.
Rumors stop at the wise. I've already told you that I don't want to get married and I don't plan to get married. Why do you still believe those rumors?"
Zhang Feifei was enlightened: "Yes! Why didn't I think of it? But if this rumor continues to spread, it will be very bad for your reputation. Do you need me to help you clarify it? Just tell them that you don't want to get married."
Chen Chuchu stretched out her hand to cover Zhang Feifei's mouth: "Stop! Don't say anything. No matter what others say to me, just pretend you didn't hear it."
"Why?"
Zhang Feifei was not happy. She thought she and Chen Chuchu were good friends. How could she just stand by and watch her affairs? Would they still be friends?
Shouldn't friends help each other and look after each other? Why did Dr. Chen become such an indifferent person?
"The more you explain, the worse it gets. It's better not to say anything and let time decide everything."
Zhang Feifei suddenly understood: "Oh! I see. You chose not to respond because you didn't want to explain so much to others. Whether it will work out with Dr. Qiu in the end, time will tell."
"Yes, that's what I mean."
Chen Chuchu's words seemed to have magical power. Zhang Feifei, who was originally anxious, slowly calmed down and snuggled in Chen Chuchu's bed, and the two of them whispered to each other.
The next day, Chen Chuchu went to the vegetable market and bought a little hen with a yellow beak and yellow feet. She also went to the pharmacy and bought some angelica, wolfberry and red dates.
She came back a little late, and handed the chicken to Lei Ming to clean up. She went to the outpatient clinic first. Zhuang Guodong knew that she went to buy chickens, and he had already reported it yesterday. There was nothing to do in the ward, so he drove Chen Chuchu away.
"Have you bought the chicken? Have you stewed it yet?"
"Not yet. They are being slaughtered."
"Why don't you hurry up and do it? Come back up when you're done. I'm the only one here."
"Thanks!"
Chen Chuchu ran away with a smile on her face. Seeing her running so fast and happily, Zhuang Guodong couldn't help laughing out loud.
This child is honest. I thought she would be depressed and listless when surrounded by rumors. It seems that she doesn't take the rumors seriously at all. Well, she is heartless and won't leave anyone a chance to attack.
Doctor Qiu from the Second Surgery Department was so careless. How could he let others know about this? It was spread everywhere, causing him to worry about the little girl.
But he seemed to be fine and he worried for nothing.
In the cafeteria, Lei Ming had already slaughtered the chicken. He cleaned even the chicken's internal organs and placed them in a basin.
When Chen Chuchu arrived, he was about to chop the chicken into pieces.
"I'll take care of this."
Taking the knife from Lei Ming, Chen Chuchu easily chopped the chicken into four large pieces, which made Lei Ming admire her. As expected of a surgeon, she could even chop a chicken with professional skills.
It was solved without any effort. He had originally planned to use all his strength to chop it. But Dr. Chen made a few "swish" cuts and the chicken was instantly torn into pieces.
The neck, head, chicken legs, chicken feet, and chicken butt were all cut off, and even the body was cut into four large pieces.
Heat oil in a pan, add ginger and stir-fry until fragrant, add chicken pieces and chicken offal and stir-fry. Add a little salt and soy sauce, stir-fry for a few more times, pour into a casserole, add water, cover with a lid, and bring to a boil over high heat.
During the boiling process, she washed the angelica, wolfberry and red dates she had bought, added them in when the water boiled, covered the pot and simmered on low heat.
"Have you learned it? This is how I stew chicken. If you want to stew it for Captain Fu in the future, do the same as I do."
Lei Ming: "Got it. I've memorized the steps. I won't make any mistakes next time."
Please ask the vegetable washer lady to help watch the fire, Chen Chuchu goes back to work, and Lei Ming goes back to take care of the patient.
When it was time to get off work, she came to the cafeteria, filled a bowl with chicken soup, and brought it to the fourth floor.
Fu Haozhe was standing in front of the window, staring outside in a daze. When he heard the noise, he turned his head and looked over. When he saw it was Chen Chuchu, his heart beat twice as fast.
His face was still as cold as ice, and he slowly moved back to sit.
"Your legs haven't fully recovered yet. It's best not to stand for too long. It's not conducive to the recovery of the wound." Putting down the bowl in her hand, Chen Chuchu came over to support him, "If you can't lie down any longer, get up and sit on the stool."
Fu Haozhe wanted to push away her hand that was supporting him, but he finally held back and slowly sat back in bed, saying, "Got it."
"Has Lei Ming gone to get food? Why can't I see him?" Chen Chuchu handed the chicken in the bowl to Fu Haozhe and motioned him, "Drink the chicken soup before eating. Eat the chicken. Don't be pretentious. You have to eat it so that the wound will heal faster. Did you drink the bone soup this morning?"
"I drank it."
Holding the bowl, Fu Haozhe looked up at Chen Chuchu. He wanted to comfort her and tell her not to care about the rumors, but he felt it was inappropriate and finally held back.
Seeing her like this, she didn't seem to be bothered at all, so why should he bring up that unpleasant topic.
"Just drink it. No matter how good your physical fitness is, if you are injured or bleeding, you still need to replenish your energy." Chen Chuchu stayed with Fu Haozhe for a long time, and her words became more casual. "You are not a machine, but a human. Eat well and replenish your energy during these few days in the hospital.
Eat half a chicken at noon, don't eat it at night, and eat another half at noon tomorrow."
“Hmm!”
Fu Haozhe had no objection. He drank the chicken soup mouthful by mouthful and listened to her nagging.
Lei Ming didn't go to get food, but went to wait for someone at the door downstairs. He called the army yesterday, and someone came today with the money and tickets that Fu Haozhe asked him to get.
When he saw Chen Chuchu after entering the room, he immediately smiled and greeted her: "Hello, Doctor Chen!"
"Where have you been?" Chen Chuchu spoke to Lei Ming more casually than she did to Fu Haozhe. "I thought you went to get food. What did you have in your hand? A letter from your family?"
Seeing the envelope in Lei Ming's hand, Chen Chuchu subconsciously thought it was a letter from family. For those of them who are away from home, what they most look forward to is receiving a letter.
"No." Lei Ming didn't know how to lie, so he answered directly, "These are our leader's money and tickets, and they are ready for you."
"Give it to me?" Chen Chuchu turned to look at Fu Haozhe, "Why do you need to give me money and tickets? I bought the chicken and bone soup for you voluntarily, you don't need to pay me.
Fu Haozhe! I, Chen Chuchu, am not an ungrateful person. You saved my life, so it's normal for me to buy some supplements for you. Why do you take it so seriously? "
Fu Haozhe was afraid that she would be angry, so he glared at Lei Ming and said, "Okay, I won't give it to you. Next time I want to eat something, can you ask Dr. Chen to take Lei Ming to buy it?"
