Chapter 216 I'm afraid you're trying to frame the commander
The road from the town to the county seat is a winding mountain road with steep cliffs on one side and a cliff on the other. The road condition is so bad that Commander Duan urged us to drive quickly.
Security guard Xiao Li had extensive driving experience, so he made sure we finally got into the city after a bumpy ride of an hour.
In the County People's Hospital, doctors from all departments have gone off work to have lunch.
"It's lunch time in the hospital cafeteria, and only a few departments are occupied. But Commander, which department should we go to for inspection?" Commander Duan ordered the guard to go to the hospital to call people. The guard took a look and ran back in a hurry.
Commander Duan also asked this question as he was about to carry the person out of the car.
My eyes were slightly stunned. Which department should I go to for stomach pain during menstruation?
He put his arm around his wife's shoulders and gently shook the sleepy person, "Are you awake?"
"Hmm..." Wang Ziru was almost vomiting from the bumpy ride. She had already changed from being polite to the commander when they set out to lying on his chest, opening her eyes and looking around. "Have we reached the county yet?"
"Well! Can I get off?"
Wang Ziru's face turned red, and the scene of being carried into the car by Commander Duan flashed through her mind. She raised her cheek, and saw his eyes were bright and worried, and the stubble around his mouth was as black as his hair.
"Get out of the car."
Then Commander Duan let go of her shoulders, walked out from the back seat with his tall figure, and turned around to pick her up.
Wang Ziru was still comforting herself that she was just experiencing temporary difficulties and as long as her stomachache went away, she would still be a lively woman.
But now…
She bit her lip and watched Commander Duan reach out to her without hesitation. She grasped the man's palm, which was warm and powerful.
Maybe it was because of the dysmenorrhea that caused a huge amount of blood flow in the past two days. I didn’t replenish nutrition and energy in time, so my legs became soft and weak, and I almost fell out of the car from the back seat.
Fortunately, Commander Duan's strong arms held her tightly.
Then he held her and walked straight into the lobby of the County People's Hospital.
When the two doctors saw this scene, they thought the patient was seriously ill. Then they caught a glimpse of the guards in military uniforms following closely behind them and guessed that they might be military family members coming to see a doctor.
He hurried over and asked the patient what his symptoms were.
After all, it is the county people's hospital, and the professional quality of the doctors there far exceeds that of the town clinic.
"Dysmenorrhea? Let's see Director Zhang from the Internal Medicine Department." The enthusiastic female doctor understood the patient's condition and immediately took them to the Internal Medicine Department to see Director Zhang.
Director Zhang is an experienced doctor in internal medicine who also knows Chinese medicine. After seeing the patient, he was quite puzzled about the identity of the man who was following the patient nervously.
On that day, the several military uniforms that Commander Duan brought with him were all dirty, so he went to the guesthouse, took a shower, and then changed into casual clothes.
But even if he was wearing casual clothes, a shirt and trousers, this outfit alone was not what an ordinary man would wear. Moreover, his aura was cold and stern, yet he still exuded a dignified air.
Commander Duan stared at the old doctor, "What are you looking at me for? Check the patient quickly."
"Haha, comrade, don't worry. Many women will encounter the same situation. It's just that her condition is more serious. She has been in pain for two days, right? Give her an IV drip, some glucose, and two painkillers."
"Hold on tight! Look, her face is pale..." Commander Duan glanced at the weak young wife sitting on the stool.
After the examination, Director Zhang prescribed medicine and said with a smile: "Women bleed a lot every day during menstruation. She hasn't eaten anything, so her face must be pale. But I'll make her some soup after we get home to nourish her."
"What kind of soup do you want? Chicken soup or pig's trotter soup?"
Commander Duan asked seriously.
He immediately thought that after the drip was started, he would go to a restaurant outside and ask the owner to stew a pot of soup for his young wife to nourish her body.
Seeing the patient's family members so concerned, Director Zhang smiled warmly and said, "Meat soup can replenish blood. You men don't know what women should avoid during menstruation. It's a good opportunity for you to come to see me, so I'll tell you a few words. After you go home, you should avoid it for a few days and wait until your menstruation is over before you can have sex."
Wang Ziru felt her cheeks burning, and the old doctor mistakenly thought that Commander Duan was her man.
Judging from the current situation, there is probably no need for any supplementation, as her old face has already turned the color of liver.
Commander Duan didn't dare to say a word, his body stiffened, but he still pretended to cough a few times, took the medical bill from the old doctor, turned around and handed it to the guard Xiao Li, "Go pay the bill."
Xiao Li had been standing outside the door, unable to hold back his laughter any longer. When he got the medical bill and went to pay, he almost burst out laughing.
A quarter of an hour later, Wang Ziru was arranged to stay in the second floor of the inpatient department of the County People's Hospital.
The young female nurse walked into the ward carrying a medical porcelain tray, grabbed Wang Ziru's hand, and gave her an injection and an IV drip. Commander Duan was still standing by the other side of the bed, watching the nurse giving her the injection.
"Governor, can you give me a salt water bottle?"
The nurse, wearing a mask, looked up at her and asked, "What do you want the salt water bottle for?"
"Fill a bottle of boiling water to warm your stomach."
"Ah? It's so hot, aren't you afraid of getting sick from the heat?" The nurse said sarcastically. After the IV was set, she looked at the family member standing by the bed and said, "Tell the family member to come with me to get it."
The guard standing at the door did not wait for Commander Duan to speak this time. He took the initiative and said, "I'll go with you to get the bottle."
The guard had been with Commander Duan for several years and had already developed a smooth temperament. After a while, he came back with a salt water bottle filled with boiling water and handed it to Wang Ziru.
Wang Ziru thanked Xiao Li, placed the bottle of saline water next to her lower abdomen, and lay on her side on the bed waiting for the drip to finish.
"Xiao Li, you stay in the ward, I'll be out for a while."
"oh…"
Xiao Li watched Commander Duan walk out of the ward with a swagger and disappear at the end of the corridor, as if he was going downstairs.
I hurried back to the ward and asked, "Comrade Ziru, are you feeling much better now?"
Wang Ziru nodded innocently, her cheeks a little hot, and pursed her lips: "You don't have to watch over me, go eat, I'll be fine after a good sleep."
"The commander asked me to stay here. If he comes back and doesn't see me, he will definitely punish me." Xiao Li sat down beside the bed, scratching his ears and cheeks. After a while, he looked at Wang Ziru and saw that she seemed to be really sleeping with her eyes closed.
"Well... your husband, Deputy Captain Zhai, seems to have a pretty good relationship with the daughter of Commander Wen?"
Wang Ziru opened her eyes in confusion, "What do you mean?"
"No, nothing! Go to sleep, go to sleep." Xiao Li wanted to tell her something, but he saw that Wang Ziru suddenly became a different person, like a hedgehog suddenly releasing all its sharp spines.
Xiao Li immediately dismissed some of his thoughts.
Commander Duan went downstairs and met a doctor in a white coat. He asked about the nearby hotels.
After asking, he found out that there was a state-owned hotel and a supply and marketing cooperative on the street not far from the hospital. He hurried to the hotel, ordered a few dishes and a pot of chicken soup, and asked the hotel waiter to deliver them directly to the ward.
I went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought maltose, two cans of oranges, and two pounds of brown sugar.
Wang Ziru didn't know how long she had slept. She felt someone shaking her shoulder in a daze. She closed her eyes and saw Commander Duan's bearded face appear in front of her.
The light grey shirt on his upper body was slightly damp, highlighting his more muscular and perfect figure.
“Hmm…”
Wang Ziru uttered a slight sound and quickly withdrew her gaze, not daring to look any further.
"Are you feeling better?" Commander Duan asked, sitting on a stool beside the bed.
Wang Ziru blinked shyly, "My stomach still hurts, but it's much better now. Thank you, Commander Duan."
"Why are you thanking me? I'm not a doctor. Which of these do you want to eat?"
Following the direction that Commander Duan's bony fingers were pointing, Wang Ziru's eyes gradually widened.
On the bedside cabinet, there was an iron box of maltose, a net bag of orange cans, and lumps of loose brown sugar wrapped in brown paper.
Wang Ziru stared blankly at the supplements placed on the small cabinet.
Before he could come to his senses, two or three waiters in hotel uniforms came in with trays, "Comrade Duan, the dishes and soup you ordered are ready."
Security guard Xiao Li hurried in to help.
Since there was no small table for dining in the ward, Xiao Li vacated the small cabinets on both sides of the bed and placed a pot of stewed chicken soup on the bedside.
Xiao Li served a bowl of chicken soup, put two pieces of chicken in the bowl, and asked Wang Ziru to eat.
At this time, the second bottle of drip was still being added, so Commander Duan helped the man up and leaned him against the head of the bed, "I'll hold the bowl, and you drink the soup."
"No, no, I can do it myself..."
When Wang Ziru smelled the fragrant chicken soup, her nose felt sore and her eyes instantly became moist.
For some reason, I recalled the scenes of stewing chicken with my family when I was still in my hometown.
Suddenly, she understood what she had been puzzled about: the man's intention of bringing her to the army.
He had clearly planned to go home to visit his family this year and sort out his marriage thoroughly, but when he got home he discovered that his wife in his hometown in the countryside had given birth to a son for him.
In this situation, for the sake of his future in the army, he absolutely could not allow himself to bear the stigma of Chen Shimei for abandoning his wife, and filed a divorce report to the army from his hometown!
This must have been Zhai Ximo's plan.
During the time when the man went home to visit his family, I was almost moved by his superficial efforts.
Wang Ziru held a bowl of chicken soup and shed bitter tears.
"What's the matter? The chicken soup doesn't taste good?" Commander Duan noticed that his young wife suddenly shed tears, so he frowned and asked in a loud, hoarse voice.
Xiao Li was holding a bowl of rice and was eating it when he looked up and saw Commander Duan take out a handkerchief from his trouser pocket and pass it to him...
After following Commander Duan for several years, this was the first time that Little Li saw Commander Duan caring so much about a woman. He couldn't help but shudder in his heart. If Deputy Regimental Commander Zhai saw this, he would probably accuse Commander Duan of deliberately seducing someone else's wife.
