The weather was cold, so Su Yan quickly closed the door and asked again, "Sister-in-law, what happened?"
"Sister-in-law, something bad happened. My mother-in-law went to shovel snow in the backyard, but she slipped and hit her head on the shovel. She was bleeding and couldn't get up for a long time.
When we went over and helped her back to bed, she said she couldn't move her right leg and arm, and the right side of her face was swollen."
It seems that my mother-in-law fell quite hard. I don’t know if her right leg and right arm are broken. If they are, it would be terrible.
The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and there are a lot of chores waiting for her at home. Why is my mother-in-law so unlucky?
She doesn't know what happened to her elder brother yet, and now her mother-in-law has fallen ill again. This year is really a disaster year!
Su Yan locked the door, then went to find Aunt Wang to help her look after the four children, and told Lu Yiming to take good care of his younger siblings.
Su Yan carried the medicine box and followed Chen Yuhe, stepping deep and shallow on the snow, walking towards the Lu family.
As soon as I entered my parents-in-law's room, I saw my mother-in-law blocking her forehead with a towel and groaning in pain.
"Mom, take the towel away and let me help you take a look."
Hua Min took away the towel, and Su Yan saw that the right side of her face was swollen and covered in blood. The skin on her right forehead was torn and bleeding, but fortunately the wound was not big.
Su Yan knew her mother-in-law had hit her head on the shovel and was worried about her contracting tetanus. She asked Chen Yuhe to move her mother-in-law's body so that her head was facing outward. She took a bottle of hydrogen peroxide from the medicine cabinet, cleaned the wound first, then sprinkled Yunnan Baiyao on it and wrapped gauze around her head several times.
After treating her mother-in-law's head wound, Shehe and Chen Yuhe helped take off her mother-in-law's cotton coat and trousers. Hua Min cried loudly in pain.
Su Yan gave her a full-body check. Because she was wearing thick cotton pants and a cotton coat, her leg and arm bones were not broken. However, she had fallen quite hard, and even if her thigh and arm weren't broken, she would probably be in pain for at least several days.
After checking her legs and arms, Su Yan discovered that her mother-in-law's right palm was bruised and her right ankle was swollen like a bun, which might be a fracture. The pain would not last for a few days, but would probably last for three months, and she would not be able to walk for three months.
"Yan Yan, my legs hurt so much, do you have any painkillers?"
Su Yan asked Chen Yuhe to prepare warm water. She brought a bottle of painkillers to her mother-in-law and said, "Mom, take one pill when you feel pain. You can only take three pills a day at most.
I'm going to go find my father-in-law now and ask him to send someone to take you to the hospital for a checkup. You need a tetanus shot for the head injury. Your right ankle is either broken or fractured, so you need to go to the hospital to get a splint."
Hua Min was in so much pain that tears came out. She also knew why she was so unlucky this year. She had a high blood pressure attack because of anger with her daughter-in-law. As the New Year was approaching, she shoveled the snow in the backyard, but who knew there was a thick layer of ice under the snow. She fell and almost lost her life.
After Hua Min finished taking the painkillers, Su Yan gave Chen Yuhe a few words and went to the office to find her father-in-law. Chen Yuhe stayed in the room to take care of her mother-in-law. Zhong Lingshan stayed in the next room with Lu Yiwei and Lu Yiman.
When Lu Fengnian learned that his daughter-in-law had fallen and had a bleeding head while shoveling snow in the backyard, she was so scared that her legs went weak and she could hardly walk.
Seeing that her father-in-law sent someone to drive her mother-in-law to the hospital, Chen Yuhe followed him, but Su Yan did not go. She had children to take care of at home, so she naturally could not leave.
At around four in the afternoon, Lu Ting came back with a lot of things. Su Yan didn't look at the things, but pulled him to sit down.
"Lu Ting, how is my elder brother now? What happened?"
"Those people wanted to drive your eldest brother away, so they deliberately had their subordinates pick on him. Over time, friction arose, and they started fighting over trivial matters.
Your brother, a well-mannered man with poor physical skills, suffered a serious injury and ended up in the hospital. I went to the higher-ups and they decided to transfer your brother to the Northwest to accompany the educated youth.
"Are you sure it's a secondment and not a demotion?"
"Well, those people didn't want your brother to stay in that position anymore and wanted to completely root him out. Luckily, your brother was smart and careful and didn't let anyone catch him, so they took the initiative to pick a fight.
I asked our senior leader to intercede, and in the end they decided to send your brother to the Northwest Farm. His salary was reduced by two levels, and it's not clear when he can be transferred back."
Being on secondment and having your salary reduced by two levels is nothing. At least you are safe and there is always a chance to turn things around. What's more, your brother's leader is also there. As long as your brother secretly helps that leader, your brother will definitely follow suit when he turns things around.
But now he has been transferred to work on a farm in the northwest, which will definitely be much harder than his current job, and he may have to do farm work.
"Yan Yan, don't worry. We can send things to Big Brother when he goes there. This secondment may be to the Northwest, but it would be much harder if he were sent to Xinjiang."
"My brother goes there, what kind of job does he do?"
"Is it the clerk? There are also managers transferred from Beijing. If your brother works hard and doesn't make mistakes, they won't make things difficult for him."
It has come to this, what else can they do? Although my brother can only go to the farm in the northwest to do clerkship, it is better than staying in Zhongnanhai and continuing to be targeted by those people.
"My eldest brother is leaving, what will happen to my eldest sister-in-law and the children?"
"Your eldest brother said he didn't want to burden your eldest sister-in-law. I don't know what your eldest sister-in-law will say when she comes back."
What would her sister-in-law say? Su Yan thought that if she knew that her brother was seconded to the Northwest and could not come back, she would definitely file for divorce.
Wang Yan works as a military doctor in the Jinshi Army. She and her elder brother live in two different places. The couple only see each other once a month, which will definitely affect their relationship.
Now that her elder brother is also being transferred, Wang Yan will definitely find another one. Husband and wife are birds of a feather, but they fly away separately when disaster strikes.
"When will my eldest brother leave? I want to go home."
"You're leaving in a week. We'll go see you off a day in advance."
"Lu Ting, Mom fell while shoveling snow in the backyard today. Dad took her to the hospital. I'll make dinner later and you can go to the hospital."
"What? Mom, I fell down. Is everything okay?" Lu Ting asked nervously.
"Mom's forehead was bruised, and her ankle might be fractured. I'm going to cook dinner now, so you can go to the hospital later."
Zhong Lingshan was at home with her two children, so she definitely didn't have time to bring food to her mother-in-law. Chen Yuhe had also gone to the hospital, so it was impossible for Lu Ting not to go to the hospital to see his mother.
Lu Ting helped Su Yan cook, ate a few mouthfuls of food, and went to the hospital with a few lunch boxes wrapped in the child's quilted apron.
