“Sister, you handed your son over to the country. We failed to take good care of him and have disappointed you.” Political Commissar Yan grasped Lu’s mother’s hand, his tone full of shame.
Lu's mother knew she couldn't let her son lose face at this time: "A man should be loyal to his country and filial to his people, and he will have no regrets even if he dies."
"With a good mother like you, you could raise such an outstanding son." Chief of Staff Liu reached out and shook Lu's mother's hand.
"Don't worry, the hospital will do its best to cure him."
Political Commissar Yan could only comfort Lu's mother.
Lu's mother nodded: "I believe in the country."
The two then looked at Wang Xiumei.
“This is my mother,” Ran Jin read aloud.
The two men said to Wang Xiumei, "Your daughter is very outstanding."
“My son-in-law is also very good, he will get better soon.” Wang Xiumei’s eyes were full of firm hope.
Chief of Staff Liu and Political Commissar Yan talked for a while longer before leaving.
After being heartbroken, Lu's mother remembered that her daughter-in-law had been holding her grandson the whole time: "Jin Nian, you've been holding An An the whole time, sit down and rest for a while."
Lu Jinyuan's ward is a VIP ward, and it has a one-meter-long sofa.
"Mom, you stay here and keep watch. I'll go back and get something." Ran Jinnian felt heartbroken seeing her husband like this.
Given Lu Jinyuan's current condition, he will definitely need to stay in the hospital for a while.
She needs to go back and get some things.
"I'll go back and get it. You stay here and keep watch," Wang Xiumei said.
Ran Jin thought for a moment and said, "Mom, go back and get some clean clothes, a basin, a toothbrush, and a handkerchief. You can take care of the rest."
Her mind was a mess, and she couldn't think of anything else she needed to take.
"good."
Wang Xiumei grabbed the keys and left in a hurry.
In the ward, only Ran Jinnian, An'an, and Lu's mother remained.
"Jin Nian, put An An on the sofa." Lu's mother also wanted to hold him herself, but her grandson recognized people, so she could only say this.
Ran Jinnian placed An'an on the sofa and walked to the bedside to examine the man's features.
He has lost a lot of weight.
Ran Jinnian felt a pang of sadness and gently held his large hand, which was covered with pitted marks.
Tears welled up again, dripping onto the back of his hand.
Lu Jinyuan felt a burning sensation in his hands. He wanted to open his eyes, but his eyelids were too heavy and he had no strength at all.
Ran Jinnian wiped away her tears.
"Jin Nian." Knowing that her daughter-in-law was crying, Lu's mother stood up and walked over to her: "If you want to cry, then cry."
Ran Jinnian rested her head on Lu's mother's shoulder: "Mom."
"With so many of us watching over him, Jin Yuan will get better." Lu's mother felt very sad, but she knew that her daughter-in-law was just as sad.
He is her husband and the father of her children.
Ran Jinnian wiped away her tears. She should have comforted her mother-in-law, but instead, her mother-in-law comforted her instead: "I will always be with him."
An hour later.
Wang Xiumei arrived carrying three large bags.
"Mom, why did you bring so much?"
"This is the food I made. No matter what, we need to eat our fill so we have the strength to take care of the patients." Wang Xiumei took out the food and dishes.
Ran Jinnian then realized it was noon: "Mom, you're so thoughtful."
The three of them ate together. Wang Xiumei neatly cleared away the bowls and chopsticks, and then took out a quilt from her bag: "We'll take turns keeping watch here tonight, so I brought a quilt with me."
