Chapter 143 Waiting
After Shen Mo left, Jiang Ning counted down the days until his return, and a month passed.
Huo Zhiqi's school has already started, but Shen Mo still hasn't returned.
Time flies, and it's already mid-to-late February.
Jiang Ning was sleeping alone at home, but her dream was bizarre and fantastical, as if something was trying to control her and prevent her from waking up.
When she struggled to wake up, she heard a knocking on the door.
Jiang Ning woke up after hearing a knock on the door.
Thinking it was Shen Mo returning, she immediately put on her shoes and went out to open the door.
She opened the door with a joyful expression, only to find her mother, Shen Qianqian, and Shen Ziming.
"Lemon."
"Second sister-in-law."
Upon seeing Jiang Ning, both Shen's mother and Shen Qianqian greeted her with great joy.
Just as Jiang Ning was about to call for help, Chen's mother suddenly called out, "Ningning, why are you dressed so lightly in such cold weather? Why is your face so pale? Come inside quickly."
Shen Qianqian also said, "Second sister-in-law, you're sweating a lot."
Shen's mother and Shen Qianqian immediately helped Jiang Ning into the house. Jiang Ning was also feeling a little dizzy. She took her pulse, but there was nothing wrong with her body.
Shen's mother told Shen Ziming to wait outside, and then helped Jiang Ning back to the bedroom.
Seeing Jiang Ning's pale face and the occasional cold sweat on her forehead, she felt extremely distressed.
He immediately made Jiang Ning lie down properly in bed, and then went to cook.
Jiang Ning didn't have much of an appetite at the moment, so she stopped her mother, who was about to leave, and said, "Mom, I'm fine, and I'm not hungry. I just had a nightmare."
Shen Qianqian said, "Second sister-in-law, you're sweating so much, you don't look like you're alright at all."
Jiang Ning was forcibly pressed down on the bed by her mother and not allowed to get up. She said helplessly, "Mom, Qianqian, have you forgotten that I am also a doctor? I'm really fine."
Shen Qianqian said, "Second sister-in-law, you slept until the afternoon. You look sick."
Jiang Ning was a little surprised, "Afternoon?"
How come she slept for so long?
This has never happened before.
Looking at Jiang Ning's expression, Chen's mother thought for a moment and asked, "Has Shen Mo not returned yet?"
Jiang Ning shook her head.
Mother Shen comforted her, "Don't worry, Mom will wait with you for Shen Mo to come back."
No one knows a son better than his mother, and Shen's mother immediately saw that Jiang Ning was acting this way because she was worried about her son's mission.
She went through the same thing back then. Her husband was a soldier. Only with a country can there be a home. Now her children are also soldiers. But she has been through that kind of experience, so she is much calmer than her children.
Jiang Ning held Chen's mother's hand. She felt that there was nothing wrong with her body, but her pale face and the cold sweat that broke out from time to time did not lie.
Shen's mother asked Shen Qianqian to stay with Jiang Ning while she and Shen Ziming went to cook.
During dinner that evening, Shen's mother asked Jiang Ning if she wanted to come and stay at the veterans' compound with them, but Jiang Ning refused.
Huo Zhiqi needs someone to take care of her while she's studying, and she said she'd wait for Shen Mo to come back, so she'll stay here until Shen Mo returns.
Shen's mother didn't insist. Seeing that Jiang Ning wasn't in good condition, she even offered to stay and take care of her.
Shen Qianqian also wanted to stay, so in the end, Shen Ziming left alone.
Shen's mother and Shen Qianqian stayed in the family compound for three days. During these three days, Jiang Ning would often fall into a dream, and it would take several calls to wake her up.
Even Zhiqi noticed that his mother wasn't feeling well, but as a little kid, he couldn't do anything for her.
Seeing Jiang Ning's condition, Shen's mother was also very worried and could only take good care of Jiang Ning in terms of food, clothing, shelter and transportation.
One day in late February, Jiang Ning almost fainted, but fortunately, Shen's mother caught her in time and immediately asked Shen Qianqian to notify Shen Mo's orderly, Qian Feng, to take them to the hospital.
Jiang Ning said she was fine, but Shen's mother insisted on taking her to the hospital to get checked out.
When they arrived at the hospital where Grandpa Shen had previously been examined, Mrs. Shen specifically sought out Xu Jin.
Let Xu Jin take a good look at her daughter-in-law.
Jiang Ning underwent a series of hospital examinations while being watched by three women, and the examinations revealed that there was indeed nothing wrong with her body.
Shen's mother was initially quite happy to see Jiang Ning so worried about her son, but as she watched her daughter-in-law's increasingly poor condition, she couldn't help but start blaming her son.
She was also a little anxious about why her son hadn't come back yet.
As Jiang Ning and Shen's mother came out of Xu Jin's clinic, they bumped into Qian Feng leading a soldier in military uniform.
Qian Feng looked at Jiang Ning with a hint of caution.
He hesitated for a long time before finally looking at the soldier beside him and saying, "Go ahead and speak."
The soldier knew the other person's identity.
Seeing Qian Feng's expression, Jiang Ning roughly guessed that it was about Shen Mo.
"Where is Shen Mo?" Jiang Ning asked first.
The soldier, who was still organizing his thoughts, immediately replied after hearing Jiang Ning's question, "The deputy regimental commander is in the operating room."
Upon hearing this, Mother Shen immediately said, "Little soldier, which operating room is it in? Quickly, take us there!"
The soldier said, "It's in the operating room on the fifth floor. I'll take you up there."
Mother Shen immediately nodded and said, "Okay, quick, let's go up quickly."
The young soldier led them upstairs, and fearing the family members would worry too much, he quickly added, "Don't worry, the deputy regimental commander's injury isn't fatal. A doctor confirmed that!"
The group went upstairs, where a number of people were already standing outside the operating room.
Brigade Commander Liang was among them.
Brigade Commander Liang didn't expect to see Jiang Ning here. Seeing Jiang Ning's not-so-good expression, he immediately said, "It's okay. Dr. Chen, who came back from abroad, said that Shen Mo's injury is not fatal."
Jiang Ning was relieved to know that Shen Mo was not dead.
As long as he has a breath left, she can bring him back to life. Now she just needs to wait for Shen Mo to come out of the operating room to check how bad his injuries are. The current medical conditions are too poor.
I don't know if it will leave any hidden dangers.
