Beijing City.
Liang Weiwei closed the door to her room and looked at the things inside.
Her luggage was all packed; she was going to see if she could sneak out tomorrow.
She glanced at the note under her pillow, then checked the small pocket she had sewn herself inside the old clothes she was going to wear tomorrow—it was for holding money.
The money has already been put in.
She only kept fifty yuan in her outer pocket.
Everything was ready, and she could board the train tomorrow. She felt a little reluctant to leave.
She was reluctant to leave her grandfather and her parents, but she wanted to find Zhang Qiang and get to the bottom of things.
Hospital.
The operating room lights went out, and then Huo Jianguo was wheeled out.
Li Xiangyun and Huo Changgen jogged over to see him.
"Jianguo, Jianguo, how are you?"
Huo Jianguo smiled and said, "Father, Mother, I'm fine."
Huo Junshan asked, "Doctor, how is my older brother's leg?"
The doctor smiled and said, "The surgery was very successful, but his leg will never recover to the same state as before."
Huo Junshan nodded: "Thank you, doctor!"
After settling Huo Jianguo in the ward, Huo Junshan said, "Father, Mother, don't stay here any longer. Go to the guesthouse! I'll take care of things here."
"Otherwise, how will you take care of our eldest brother tomorrow during the day?"
Huo Junshan went to tell the nurse that he would be back soon.
He then took Huo Changgen and Li Xiangyun to the guesthouse.
After settling the two of them in.
He came back.
With no one else in the ward, it was much easier for him to get things done.
He poured Huo Jianguo a cup of spiritual spring water and made him drink it.
"Big brother, go to sleep! I've settled Father and Mother in. I'll stay here and watch over you tonight."
Huo Jianguo was deeply moved. His eyes were a little red as he nodded, "Third brother, thank you. The surgery fee is yours..."
Huo Junshan waved his hand: "Alright, we're brothers, your injury is more important."
He then asked, "Have you eaten these two buns?"
Huo Jianguo almost shed tears while eating a steamed bun.
Huo Junshan made him another cup of milk powder, and after he ate the steamed bun, he gave him the milk powder to drink.
After finishing his meal, Huo Jianguo felt much more energetic.
"You've eaten, now go to sleep!"
He also lay down on the bed next to him and rested with his eyes closed.
Huo Jianguo fell asleep shortly afterward.
Huo Junshan stared blankly at his leg, which was already immobilized with a cast, making it impossible to wash the wound.
The only thing we can do is let him drink more spiritual spring water.
Huo Jianguo was awakened by pain in the middle of the night.
It hurts so much!
He cried out in pain.
Huo Junshan opened his eyes and asked, "Does it hurt a lot? I'll go get a doctor."
After he finished speaking, he opened the door and went out to find a doctor.
The doctor came over and said, "It's normal. The pain will start once the anesthesia wears off. There's nothing you can do about it; you'll just have to bear it."
Huo Jianguo barely slept in the latter half of the night.
It hurts so much!
But the doctor couldn't do anything. After the doctor left, Huo Junshan poured him another cup of spiritual spring water.
"Drink up! Think about something else, don't just think about your leg, think about what will happen at home after you're discharged, how will you raise your child?"
Huo Jianguo remained silent as expected.
the next day.
Li Xiangyun and Huo Changgen arrived early and bought some food.
"Third brother, how's your eldest brother?"
Huo Jianguo fell asleep just before dawn and has just woken up.
He forced a smile and said, "Father, Mother, I'm alright!"
Li Xiangyun gave him a steamed bun: "Eat up! Go to sleep after you've eaten, so your leg can heal faster."
Huo Junshan had already secretly gone into the space to wash up.
He took a steamed bun and started eating.
She finished her meal in a few bites and then made a cup of milk powder for Huo Jianguo.
Huo Jianguo said, "Third brother, don't drink it! This stuff is hard to come by and very precious. I don't need to drink it. You take it back for your wife!"
Huo Junshan said expressionlessly, "There are still some at home. This is what I bought for you. The faster you recover, the sooner we can go back."
Huo Jianguo also fell silent.
After finishing the steamed bun, he drank all the milk powder in one gulp.
Huo Junshan said to Li Xiangyun, "Mother, you and Father go back and get some clothes for eldest brother. His clothes are dirty from yesterday and he's been sweating, so he needs to change. You two should also bring some clothes over."
Li Xiangyun was just thinking about going back to teach that bitch a lesson, because if it weren't for that bitch, her son wouldn't have suffered like this.
She nodded: "Okay! Your father and I will go back now."
Huo Junshan took out fifty yuan and gave it to Li Xiangyun: "Take this money. You can't be without any. Go back and make lunch for Ningning. I'm worried she won't eat well by herself."
Li Xiangyun nodded and took the money.
Why!
The third brother often gives money; what if Ningning found out?
This is way too much money!
I gave the hospital 100 yesterday, 50 today, and also bought milk powder and malted milk powder.
Li Xiangyun left after finishing her conversation with Huo Changgen.
Beijing City.
Liang Weiwei woke up very early in the morning.
She secretly opened the door and saw her mother cooking in the kitchen.
He said, "Mom, aren't you going to work today?"
Liang's mother asked in surprise, "Why are you awake? Not sleeping in? It's still early! Go back to sleep!"
Liang Weiwei shook her head: "I'm not going to sleep. I go to bed early tonight."
After the family had eaten and gone to work, Liang's mother still hadn't made a move.
She was very anxious.
She then asked, "Mom, aren't you going to work?"
Mother Liang nodded: "Yes, we won't go today."
Liang Weiwei!
What should we do?
She's already bought the train tickets; if she doesn't go to work, how will she get there?
