Chapter 107
After Wang Mengmei picked up Jian Li, she rushed to Ge's house without stopping.
"Something happened to your grandma."
Yellow osmanthus?
Jian Li was confused. Did something happen to Huang Guihua?
Doesn’t she still have five or six years left?
Wang Mengmei didn't know the truth either. She just received a call from Jian Feng, who asked her to bring Jian Li with her, saying that Huang Guihua's condition was not very good.
Jian Feng didn't explain exactly what was wrong with it, mainly because he only had a vague idea of it.
We can only treat it as if Huang Guihua is dying. After all, she is Jian Li’s biological grandmother and her own mother, so she can’t be away at this time.
Wang Mengmei took Jian Li to the hospital and met Jian Feng who was waiting at the hospital entrance.
The family of three asked the front desk where the ward was, and then hurried there.
When we arrived at the ward, Ge Changyuan, Ge Changjun and Ge Yaqin were all there, but Huang Guihua's husband Ge Qiang was nowhere to be seen.
"Brother, sister-in-law, you are here! Xiaoli is here too."
Jian Feng frowned: "What's wrong?"
Huang Guihua was lying on the bed, connected to machines, and apparently unconscious, with an oxygen tube hanging from her nose. She was so skinny that Wang Mengmei was shocked at first glance.
Is Huang Guihua already so old?
The call was from Ge Changyuan to Jian Feng, who only said a few general words that he was in the hospital and the situation was not very good.
When Jian Feng asked this, Ge Changyuan immediately answered, "Mom had a sudden stroke. She felt headache yesterday and passed out at night. She said she went to a nearby clinic and got two packets of medicine. She couldn't be woken up this morning, so she was sent to the hospital."
But by the time he was sent to the hospital, the best time for treatment had already passed, and further examination revealed that several blood vessels were clogged, and even several large blood vessels were in danger.
Ge Changyuan is a hospital employee, and his colleagues in the cardiovascular department made it very clear.
"In this case, we can only use conservative treatment to see if there are any sequelae after the patient wakes up. Sequelae can be serious or minor. The serious one is that he will be bedridden and need someone to take care of him. The minor one is that half of his body will lose sensation and he will not be able to do heavy work in the future."
There's even the worst news, which is that if the large blood vessels in the brain rupture, massive bleeding will turn the person into a vegetative state.
As soon as Ge Changyuan heard the news, he immediately called all his brothers and sisters over.
Let’s discuss what to do.
I haven't seen Ge Changjun for two years. Although he still wears a suit and a watch, there is a layer of hostility between his brows. Upon closer inspection, the watch has some old scratches and the suit is wrinkled. Even in the hospital, his phone never stops ringing. But when he answers, he either speaks in a humble manner or curses. He holds a cigarette in his hand, and the ashes are scattered everywhere.
Ge Changyuan couldn't stand him: "This is a hospital, put away your cigarette!"
Ge Changjun put out his cigarette with a stiff face.
Business has been bad in the past few years, and just watching others make money makes Ge Changjun feel like there is a vicious tiger locked up in his heart.
The brothers and sisters were talking at the bedside. When Wang Mengmei saw this situation, she regretted bringing Jian Li with her.
It's all Jian Feng's fault. He didn't even ask clearly over the phone.
If I had known, I wouldn’t have brought it to Jian Li.
But now that I'm here, it's not good to ask my daughter to leave now.
Just when she was in a dilemma, Jian Feng suddenly called her.
"Aren't you still busy in the store? Take Jian Li back."
Ge Changyuan: "Sister-in-law opened a store? What store?"
Wang Mengmei said politely, "It's just a small restaurant. Since there's nothing to do here, I'll leave first."
Ge Changyuan greeted her warmly: "Sit for a while longer."
Wang Mengmei: "No, no, the store will be full soon."
When Ge Yaqin heard about the small restaurant, she turned her head away. She still has some complaints about it.
The last time Jian Feng said that to her, she felt upset for several days.
She is doing this for the good of their family!
In the end, it seemed like she said something wrong!
Wang Mengmei and Jian Li walked out of the hospital and saw a food vendor pushing a tricycle outside the hospital.
Wang Mengmei slapped her head and said, "It's already this late. If we had known, we would have stayed by our side and told them to eat first."
Since they had to leave anyway, she might as well let everyone eat first and then go back, so she could make it in time.
Wang Mengmei hesitated whether to go back or not. Jian Feng went to the county town today and came back without any delay. She was afraid that she might not have had lunch.
Jian Li looked at him like a fool and said, "Don't tell me you're going back. My dad worked so hard to pick these for us."
Wang Mengmei: ...What does this mean?
Jian Li pushed her mother from behind: "Let's go!"
If it's any later, the person who will sleep with you tonight will probably be you, the eldest daughter-in-law who has been taken advantage of!
…
Wang Mengmei and Jian Li both left, and gradually only the four siblings were left in the ward.
Gradually, after discussing Huang Guihua's condition, several people were speechless.
Night gradually fell, and Ge Yaqin went out to buy four meals.
After dinner, Ge Changjun started to make an excuse.
"I have to go to the construction site. There have been a lot of safety inspections recently. I'm worried that the workers may have drunk too much and got into trouble."
Ge Changyuan also raised his hand to look at his watch: "I have to go to the ward for rounds, too."
Jian Feng said nothing, but Ge Yaqin looked embarrassed.
She really wanted to stay here to take care of Huang Guihua, but she came here in a hurry today and didn't bring anything with her. If she stayed here, she would have to explain to her family. Also, her son is at the age where he is looking for his mother everywhere. One or two days is fine, but if she stays here for more than that, she would be worried.
"Then I..."
Jian Feng suddenly interrupted: "Let me do it today."
As soon as these words came out, several people couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Ge Changyuan hurriedly said, "Brother, I will find you a bed later so you can rest for a while in the middle of the night. I will come early tomorrow morning to take your place and prepare breakfast for you."
Jian Feng waved his hands and said casually, "It's okay, I'll go home and eat tomorrow morning. Anyway, everyone can take turns, one day each, so there's no need to make it so troublesome."
Ge Changyuan paused for a moment, then said awkwardly: "Of course, one day each, I will go to transfer to another shift tomorrow, and you should also have a good rest at night."
Ge Changjun looked impatient: "What's the point of taking turns? Can't you just find a nurse? I'll pay for it!"
Ge Changyuan: "You need someone to be there to take care of your mother! If something happens to our mother in the middle of the night, will the caregiver be willing to take responsibility for you?"
Ge Changjun rubbed his hair irritably: "What a troublesome thing!"
Ge Yaqin was the one with the least objection. She worked during the day and could only come to accompany me at night.
After some discussion, Ge Changjun paid for a daytime nurse, and if anything happened, he would go to Ge Changyuan. Anyway, Ge Changyuan and his wife were in the hospital, so there was no need to worry about not being able to find someone.
In the evening, four people take turns.
Before leaving, Ge Changjun was already on the phone at home. Jian Feng listened to a few words and vaguely heard that Ge Changjun asked his wife to come the day after tomorrow night.
Ge Changyuan arranged a single room for Huang Guihua. The room was very large. Ge Changyuan also got another bed, and Jian Feng slept on that bed.
He checked on Huang Guihua's condition every hour or so. If the instrument's indicator showed red, Jian Feng would go find the doctor on duty.
Jian Feng didn't dare fall asleep all night. Listening to Huang Guihua's weak breathing, he occasionally took a glass of water and used a cotton swab to moisten Huang Guihua's lips.
Ge Changyuan called him and was deliberately vague about what he said. Was it because he intended to let Wang Mengmei take care of him, or was it just a carelessness? Jian Feng didn't want to pursue the matter any further.
In the adult world, many things are tacitly understood.
However, this time Jian Feng did not plan to let his daughter-in-law get involved. She was his biological mother, and Meng Mei had never gained any benefit from her since she married into the family. Why should he ask his daughter-in-law to serve him?
Early the next morning, Jian Feng got up and tidied the bedding on the bed.
Ge Changyuan arrived late, and there was a dark spot under his eyes.
Although they were in the same hospital, Ge Changyuan's wife only came over in the morning to take a look, said a few polite words and then left.
Ge Changyuan looked at his wife's back with anger, but he still had to do it himself.
Jian Feng didn't rush home. After leaving the hospital, he went to the grocery store to arrange today's work.
After arranging today's delivery, Jian Feng saw the breakfast that Wang Mengmei had reserved in advance when he got home.
The rice porridge was simmering in the pot, with some red-skinned peanuts in it. A plate of pickled vegetables was served, and on the table was an enamel bowl filled with mushrooms and vegetables that had been stir-fried that morning, as well as four warm buns.
Jian Feng finished his meal in one gulp, and without even taking a shower, he just fell asleep on the bed.
…
When Huang Guihua got sick, Jian Feng went to the hospital as often as he went to eat.
I've been there many times, but I've never met Ge Qiang.
The four brothers and sisters took turns to take care of the child, but it was not a long-term solution. On the sixth day, Ge Changjun had a quarrel with his wife.
Ge Changjun's wife came to take care of him all night, and after she went back home, she felt more and more uncomfortable the more she thought about it.
Huang Guihua has three sons. Why should she go when Jian Feng’s wife and Ge Changyuan’s wife didn’t go?
The more Ge Changjun's wife thought about it, the angrier she became. She had many complaints about her mother-in-law, Huang Guihua.
If the old woman hadn't been fond of children, her Ge Ming would never have been sent to a juvenile detention center!
So she smashed the pots and bowls and refused to go!
Ge Changjun didn't expect his wife to turn on him: "I just asked you to go watch for one night! Did it hinder you from playing mahjong or going shopping? What are you doing here? Don't you want to spend the night? If you want to spend the night, leave now!"
Ge Changjun felt that his wife was confused. Ge Changyuan's wife didn't go because she was a doctor and had a job. Jian Feng's wife didn't go because Jian Feng was just a gigolo. He had inquired about it. Ge Yaqin said that Jian Feng said it himself, and the whole family depended on Wang Mengmei's store.
What can Ge Changjun's wife do?
Where do you get the confidence to say you don't want to serve your mother-in-law?
The two men were throwing things at each other, and in the end Ge Changjun was the more powerful one.
Ge Changjun's wife was so angry that she had no place to vent. Finally, she said bitterly: "If your mother is not good, then it's all over. If it is good, I want to see how you three brothers divide it!"
