Wang Tianxiao took the thermos out from the back and touched the outside of it. It was only slightly warm, and the temperature inside probably hadn't completely dissipated.
"Ah, this is..."
"It's chicken soup that Lili made for Brother Qiancai. It's probably still hot. Let's hurry and take it to him so he can drink it. There was a bit of traffic on the way, so I took a long detour, which is why it took a little longer."
"Alright... let's go upstairs. Look, we've gone to so much trouble for you, landlady, to bring this over personally. We're really being too kind."
"Not at all, sister-in-law, you're too kind."
"Hey, boss, you're such a good person."
Gao Huanhuan sighed sincerely. She and her husband had worked outside for many years, and most bosses would do everything they could to cut back on their workers' wages. Not only were the food, drinks, and accommodations poor, but they also often struggled to pay their wages on time.
They didn't treat the people who did the physical labor as human beings at all.
But ever since I arrived at the station and met the boss, Wang Tianxiao, it has truly broadened my horizons.
I never dreamed that there would be such a good boss.
Not only are the wages high, but the accommodation and food are also good. The wages are paid on time, and they are constantly given opportunities for development. My husband has been entrusted with important responsibilities because of his hard work, and his salary has increased several times over. This is more money than they could earn in more than half a year before.
Now, their combined monthly income equals what they earned in a whole year before.
Therefore, deep down, the couple were very grateful to Wang Tianxiao, and they discussed countless times behind his back that they must work hard so as not to let down Wang Tianxiao's trust and care.
As they spoke, the two arrived at Wu Qiancai's hospital room.
The ward was a double room, and the environment was quite nice.
The hospital offers two types of rooms: triple rooms and double rooms, with different prices.
Wang Tianxiao insisted on staying in a double room, saying that there would be fewer people and he could get a good rest.
If you happen to encounter someone in a three-person room who is particularly inconsiderate of others' feelings, then you basically won't have any time to rest.
When Wang Tianxiao went in, Wu Qiancai was lying on his side facing the window.
His left arm was injured and was not only tightly bandaged, but also in a sling.
It seems that it's not just the surface that's injured.
"Shopkeeper, wake up! Look who's here!"
Seeing that her husband was still asleep and hadn't noticed them, Gao Huanhuan quickly went over and shook him awake.
"You weren't going to... Oh, boss, what brings you here?"
Wu Qiancai was also pleasantly surprised to see Wang Tianxiao and struggled to sit up.
"No, no, just lie down, Brother Qiancai. Don't be so formal. Just like at the airfield, why are you staying in the hospital? It's like you're becoming distant with me."
Wang Tianxiao walked over with a smile and sat down on the chair next to the bed.
Gao Huanhuan opened the lunchbox that Wang Tianxiao had brought on the small table next to her, and sure enough, it was still steaming hot inside.
The thermos is indeed of good quality.
Wang Tianxiao bought this from a store that sells military logistics supplies, and the quality is indeed excellent.
"Boss, you're so busy, why did you come to see me? Look at my health, I can't work, and I'm troubling you even more..."
“No, you can’t say that, Brother Qiancai,” Wang Tianxiao interrupted Wu Qiancai, smiling as he said, “Even if you were injured because of me, or for some other reason, given our relationship, I couldn’t possibly turn a blind eye. As for the work, don’t worry, there’s not much work left in the mountains for now, and the people you brought are all quite good. They can handle the finishing touches.”
"But this..."
"Don't be so polite. I've said it before, everyone at our station is like family. Although I hired you to work and I pay you, that's a matter of money. Aside from money, don't we also have feelings for each other?"
“Boss…” Wu Qiancai was deeply moved.
"Let's not talk about that. How are you recovering? What did the doctor say?"
"They said it was a muscle tear, and the bone was slightly dislocated. Those bastards really had some strength. The rest are just some superficial injuries, but..."
"But what?"
"Oh, it's nothing, it's nothing."
Wang Tianxiao feigned anger, "Brother Qiancai, didn't we just agree to talk things out? Why are you being so secretive now?"
Wu Qiancai then said, "The doctor said that these injuries are all easy to treat and will heal in a few days. The most difficult thing to treat is frostbite."
"Frostbite?" Wang Tianxiao was stunned; this was something he hadn't considered.
"Yes, my clothes were probably torn at the time, and then I lost blood quickly, which caused the temperature of many parts of my arm to drop rapidly, and then I got frostbite. I heard from the doctor that this kind of frostbite is difficult to cure in a short time. Even if the frostbite heals after this year, it will still recur next year at this time, and I may still have scars all over my arm."
“Yes, the doctor also said that what’s even more distressing is that the frostbite has damaged some nerves and blood vessels. If it’s not treated, it might… it might…” Gao Huanhuan hesitated, wanting to say something but stopping herself.
"Hey, you woman, why are you telling the boss this?"
"Oh." Gao Huanhuan didn't say anything more, poured the chicken soup into her lunchbox, and then handed it to Wu Qiancai, "Here, the boss gave you chicken soup."
"Oh, this... Boss, how could I trouble you like this? I'll just grab something to eat. You've gone to so much trouble to bring it all over for me."
"It's okay, you can eat. Right now, you just need to take good care of your health."
"Thank you so much, boss lady."
Wang Tianxiao smiled, but in his mind he was thinking about the frostbite he had just mentioned. While they were chatting, he noticed that the doctor's name on the diagnosis slip next to him was Li Dawei.
