Chapter 377 Hospitalization
The diagnosis is also based on the patient's condition.
It was not known how long it had passed, but the hospital diagnosed that Liu Lai Fu had a gastric ulcer and his condition was quite serious.
Hospitalization is required.
Liu Yinyin handled the admission procedures for him. Liu Laifu stayed in the ward and had to receive intravenous drips and take medicine on time every day.
As for when he can be discharged from the hospital, it depends on Liu Lai Fu's physical recovery.
The family members cannot leave either, and as for Liu Lai Fu, at least one person needs to stay in the hospital for observation.
Liu Yinyin arranged: "Big Brother and Second Brother, how about this? We will both stay in the hospital to look after Dad during the day, and at night... just leave one person to accompany him. We can take turns, and the other two can stay in the guesthouse."
There can't be no guesthouse near a big hospital.
It is not a good idea for everyone to live in the hospital. The hospital is so small that if too many people stay there it will affect other patients.
Brother Liu: "Little sister, how about my second brother and I take turns to stay and look after Dad? It's not convenient for a girl like you to live in the hospital."
Liu Yinyin: "Everyone living in the hospital is a patient, so it's not inconvenient."
There was a guesthouse next to the hospital. When they arrived, they brought a letter of introduction and quickly got a room.
Liu Yinyin will be accompanying us today, so Big Brother Liu and Second Brother Liu can just stay in one room.
If Liu Yinyin doesn't accompany her, she will have to book a separate room.
Fortunately, on the first night, Liu Lai Fu was fine.
The next day, after Brother Liu and Brother Liu arrived at the hospital, Liu Yinyin said hello to them and went outside to buy some things.
Liu Laifu's condition was indeed very serious. During this period, he could only eat some liquid food, and the porridge and noodles had to be cooked very badly.
You can't eat anything hard.
The hospital cafeteria has everything, including rice and flour specially supplied to patients.
However, eating this way can easily lead to malnutrition.
Liu Yinyin went out mainly to buy some nutritional supplements for Liu Laifu to replenish his body.
Also...some daily necessities need to be bought. They came in such a hurry that they didn't bring all the things.
Liu Yinyin first went shopping in the department store and bought a pair of nice slippers, a towel and a hot water bottle.
I didn't buy anything else. I just brought an enamel basin, a lunch box, clothes and other things.
After leaving the department store, Liu Yinyin found a deserted place and smuggled out a can of milk powder, a can of malted milk, and a bag of soy milk powder from the system.
Liu Lai-fu can use these nutritional supplements to soak in water and drink them later to replenish his nutrition.
In addition, Liu Yinyin also bought ten kilograms of rice, two bags of noodles, two kilograms of pork, a cabbage, and several potatoes.
The hospital has a cafeteria, but the prices are too expensive, and the family members have to use food coupons to eat in the cafeteria.
The brothers and sisters have jobs, but they spend money and use receipts, and Liu Yinyin feels that it is not a good deal.
The best way is to find a way to cook for yourself.
If you don't have a kitchen, you can rent or borrow one.
There are also houses near the hospital. Liu Yinyin thought about it and found a family and asked to borrow their kitchen.
She specifically looked for a slightly larger house.
The person who opened the door was a middle-aged woman in her forties. Seeing that it was a stranger, she looked at her warily.
"Who are you looking for, little girl?"
Liu Yinyin smiled slightly: "Auntie, I am a family member who came to the city hospital for medical treatment. It is not convenient to eat here. Can I borrow your kitchen to use?"
Seeing the other party's surprised look.
Liu Yinyin added: "Auntie, I won't use your kitchen for nothing."
Middle-aged woman: “…”
She wanted to refuse, she wasn't a bad person and who would lend their kitchen to someone for no reason?
Besides, what if he is a bad guy?
After hearing what Liu Yinyin said, the middle-aged woman swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth and changed her words: "Little girl, what can you give as a loan fee?"
She saw that Liu Yinyin was a little girl with small arms and legs, and even if she had bad intentions, she could do it as long as she watched her.
I'm not afraid that she will really do something bad.
Liu Yinyin considered and said, "...I'll borrow it for one day and give you a pound of rice?"
Fine grains at that time were absolutely precious, even for workers with formal jobs.
The quantity of fine grains is also limited.
The middle-aged woman didn't expect Liu Yinyin to be so generous, and hurriedly said, "Okay..."
After thinking for a while, the middle-aged woman said, "You have to pay for the oil, salt and other things at home, but forget about the firewood. Just consider it as a gift from me."
"Also, you have to give rice before you use the kitchen."
Liu Yinyin nodded and said, "Okay."
She had just bought some vegetables and rice, and immediately, Liu Yinyin gave the middle-aged woman a pound of rice.
Borrow her kitchen to cook an afternoon meal.
The locals in the city are relatively wealthy, and the middle-aged women also have good family conditions.
The kitchen is quite large and clean, and there are a lot of seasonings.
Liu Yinyin first cut a piece of lean meat and chopped it into pieces, then cooked a lean meat porridge for Liu Laifu. When it was almost cooked, she added an egg into it.
When she came, she carried a big backpack with all her things stuffed in it.
At first glance, people can only see that it is filled with things, but cannot tell what it is filled with......
Liu Yinyin reached into the backpack, and with a thought, an egg was smuggled out of the system.
There are several brothers and sisters in their family. Liu Yinyin cooked three dishes: braised pork, stir-fried cabbage, and spicy and sour shredded potatoes.
While she was cooking, the middle-aged woman was watching...
Seeing that Liu Yinyin poured oil like water, the middle-aged woman was heartbroken and her face looked ugly.
I couldn't help but remind her, "Girl, you can't use oil like that. The oil you use to cook one dish is enough for our family to eat for a week!"
Like fine grains, rapeseed oil is also a scarce commodity. For a large family, their monthly ration of rapeseed oil is only a small can, which is gone after it is consumed.
When cooking, middle-aged women usually use chopsticks to dip a few drops of oil to lubricate the pot.
If you calculate carefully, it's just enough for a week.
If you use oil like Liu Yinyin, a month’s worth of oil at home can be produced in just two or three days!
In this case, this transaction is not calculated at all.
Liu Yinyin paused. She had her own system and didn’t have to save oil on weekdays.
However, supplies were scarce in those days, and in the eyes of others, she was indeed a bit extravagant in using so much oil in cooking.
Liu Yinyin smiled shyly: "Auntie, I will bring a can of oil with me tomorrow and return it to you then."
Middle-aged woman: “…Okay!”
As long as she doesn't use the oil from her house, Liu Yinyin can do anything in the kitchen.
Liu Yinyin packed her food and left the middle-aged woman's house.
Back in the hospital, Brother Liu (Eldest Brother) and Brother Liu (Second Brother) were almost scared to death by her.
When Brother Liu saw Liu Yinyin coming back, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
