"Oh, oh, oh, okay, okay, okay, thank you so much, doctor! Thank you so much, you've worked so hard!" He Meizhu kept thanking him.
After finishing speaking, he didn't forget to ask about Lu Huaijiao's condition.
"Doctor, how is my daughter-in-law? Is she alright? Is everything alright? When can we see her?"
The nurse had worked at the hospital for many years and had delivered dozens, if not hundreds, of babies. But most mothers-in-law were most concerned about the baby.
Few people care about new mothers like this.
Not to mention that the other party is only a daughter-in-law.
If it were any other mother-in-law, she would probably be overjoyed to see her three grandsons. Who would care about a daughter-in-law like He Meizhu?
So the nurse was somewhat moved.
"Don't worry, your son is with you inside! Your daughter-in-law is young and doing well. She'll go back to her ward after the stitches are done. You should take your child back to her ward first!"
The nurse explained.
Hearing the nurse's words, He Meizhu felt a little more at ease, but she still couldn't help asking, "Doctor, Jiaojiao had stitches, so she must be in a lot of pain when she wakes up, right? Is there any way to make her feel less pain when she wakes up?"
"Do you have any painkillers? If you do, please give them to us. As long as Jiaojiao isn't in pain, money isn't a problem. We're willing to pay."
Compared to people, money is nothing.
Moreover, Lu Huaijiao usually treats the couple very well, being very generous with money, food, and other necessities.
At this moment, if she couldn't bear to part with it, she wouldn't be human.
The nurse was amused by He Meizhu's words.
"Auntie, don't worry. Your son said the same thing. He's been keeping a close eye on things inside, afraid that your daughter-in-law might be mistreated."
The nurse said this, but she was secretly very envious.
Lu Huaijiao, that woman, is really lucky!
She married a very good man, and her mother-in-law treated her very well. She gave birth to three sons again, and her mother-in-law and husband treated her like a precious treasure.
A woman who achieves what Lu Huaijiao has is truly a winner in life.
"Oh, I see. That's good, that's good. I thought that brat was terrified."
He Meizhu patted her chest and spoke with lingering fear.
Gu Jianhua, who had been watching his three grandsons from the side, finally had enough. He looked up at his wife.
"Old He, Huaijiao is being watched by Lao Si, she'll be fine. Shall we take our grandson back to his room first? It's cold in the corridor, and the child is small, he'll get cold if he's exposed to the wind."
When He Meizhu first heard Gu Jianhua's first sentence, she really wanted to refute him.
But upon hearing the next sentence, she immediately realized what was happening.
"Oh right, I forgot. Quickly take my three precious grandsons back to their room."
As He Meizhu spoke, she, Gu Jianhua, and Gu Tiezhu led the three children to the ward where Lu Huaijiao was staying.
The room had been booked in advance; it was a three-bed ward, but Lu Huaijiao was the only patient in the room.
As mentioned before, there aren't many people hospitalized right now, and people don't yet have the awareness to go to the hospital just because they're sick. So Gu Changzheng was able to easily book a room for three people.
There are three beds: one for Lu Huaijiao, and one each for Gu Changzheng and He Meizhu.
Triplets are a bit overwhelming even for an adult to care for, let alone a woman who has just given birth after surgery.
In any case, it takes at least two people to barely take good care of it.
Unfortunately, Lu Huaijiao's biological mother passed away a long time ago, and she has no sisters or anything, so He Meizhu and Gu Changzheng can only take care of her here.
Fortunately, both He Meizhu and Gu Changzheng are very capable people. The two of them can manage to take care of four people.
About an hour after the three children were wheeled into the ward, Lu Huaijiao was also wheeled in.
The nurses were planning to lift Lu Huaijiao, who was unconscious on the operating table, off the bed, but Gu Changzheng stepped forward and carried her directly to the bed and laid her down.
Those strong, powerful arms are very reliable.
The nurse hung up the IV drip, told them to press the call button when the medication was finished, and gave them some post-operative instructions before leaving.
Gu Changzheng took the basin provided by the hospital, took out the towel he brought from home, poured boiling water from the kettle to wet the towel, wrung it out, and carefully wiped Lu Huaijiao's hands and face.
She was still asleep and hadn't woken up yet.
Gu Changzheng's expression was solemn, and his movements were gentle, as if he were handling a rare treasure.
He Meizhu watched from the side, and only after Gu Changzheng had wiped Lu Huaijiao's hands and face clean did she whisper, "Fourth brother, is Jiaojiao alright?"
The doctor had said everything was fine, but Gu Changzheng's expression was too serious, which made He Meizhu mistakenly believe that the doctor was lying.
Gu Changzheng hummed in agreement.
Looking down at the sleeping person, he couldn't feel happy at all.
"mom…"
"Huh? What's wrong? Fourth brother, don't scare me."
He Meizhu became nervous.
Gu Changzheng shook his head, then slowly spoke, as if to He Meizhu, yet also as if to himself: "Jiaojiao usually complains for half a day if she gets pricked by a needle. Just now, when she was giving birth, the doctor made such a long cut on her stomach with that scalpel. How much pain must she have been in?"
The tall, resilient man, who would remain unfazed even if Mount Tai collapsed before him, spoke with a slight choking in his voice at this moment.
