Xu Junyang entered the ward. It was a double room and the other bed was empty.
He saw Chen Man standing by his grandmother's bed.
"Grandma, are your hands cold when you're doing the IV?"
After all the examinations, grandma was very tired. She took a deep breath and said slowly, "A little bit."
Chen Man: "Wait for me, I'll go buy a hot water bottle."
Just as she was about to stand up, Xu Junyang pressed her shoulders and said, "You stay here, I'll go buy it. It's cold outside, and I have a car."
Chen Man felt very sorry. "I'll go by myself. It's okay if I'm a little cold. You've been running for us all morning. You must be tired. Thank you for your hard work."
Xu Junyang looked down at her, "I'm not tired, I still have some energy, stay here. Haven't had breakfast yet?"
It sounded like he wanted to bring her some food. She felt embarrassed to bother him again and again, but she was really hungry now. She couldn't secretly order takeout without his knowledge. It would be even more embarrassing if she was discovered.
He is handsome and has a noble temperament. This posture really gives him a condescending feeling.
Chen Man looked up at him, as if she was looking up to him.
"without."
"Well, I'll bring it with me later. I haven't eaten yet either."
Fortunately, this ward has air conditioning, otherwise Chen Man would really worry that her grandmother would be cold.
"Grandma, are you hungry now? Do you want to eat anything?"
Grandma took the medicine and lay down for a while, then she seemed to feel better. "I don't want to eat, I'm not hungry. How many days will I have to stay in the hospital? Chinese New Year is coming soon, it would be uncomfortable if I have to spend the whole year in the hospital. I also have to go back to burn paper for your grandfather and ancestors. It's Chinese New Year, what will they do if they come back and have no food to eat?"
Chen Man was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"I don't know yet. I haven't told you yet. I'll ask Xu Junyang later. Just listen to the doctor, take your medicine and get the IV drip, and we'll be discharged soon."
"Then ask Jun Yang so you can make plans. If you stay here for too long, the medical expenses will be a hefty sum."
"I have money, and my mom has money too, so you don't have to worry about money. And now some of it can be reimbursed."
Grandma then remembered her identity, "Yes, I had forgotten."
Xu Junyang came back soon, carrying a lot of things in both hands.
"You, why did you buy so much?" Chen Man hurried forward to help.
"I bought some fruits, snacks and nutritional supplements. You can eat them with milk. This is a hand warmer. Please charge it." Xu Junyang took out the hand warmer from the bag and handed it to Chen Man.
Chen Man plugged in the power while Xu Junyang was setting up lunch for them.
"Grandma, I bought you some vegetable porridge. The doctor said you can only eat light food. Would you like to eat some now?" Xu Junyang squatted in front of his grandmother's bed, holding a beautifully packaged box.
"I'm not eating anymore. I have no appetite. I don't want to eat anything. You and Chen Man should eat quickly. By the way, how long will I be staying in the hospital?"
"The doctor said to stay for a week and see."
When grandma heard this, her face turned sad. "A week? Oh, it will be Chinese New Year soon when we go back."
After saying that, he saw Xu Junyang still squatting in front of him, "Go and eat quickly, go quickly."
There was a small table in the room, and Chen Man had already laid out the meal. It was a double room, and there were just enough stools.
The two of them ate face to face. Chen Man looked up at him and said, "Xu Junyang, thank you."
Xu Junyang didn't even pause while eating his meal. He just casually said, "We're all neighbors. It's no big deal to help each other. It's like this in the village. We come and go. It's normal to lend a hand to each other."
For some reason, Chen Man felt relieved when she heard him say that.
She was really afraid that he was helping her so enthusiastically because of some reasons that she had randomly guessed, which would put a lot of pressure on her.
"Tell me how much you spent today and I'll transfer the money to your WeChat." A faint smile appeared on Chen Man's face.
Xu Junyang didn't look up for several times, and he could hear her mood from her tone.
A sudden flash of inspiration came to him, and he seemed to understand something.
His hand paused slightly, then he continued eating. "It's that hand warmer. 35 yuan."
"What about those things?"
"Those were the ones I bought to visit your grandmother. How can they be included?"
"Uh...and gas money."
"That's not necessary. We're all neighbors, and I'm a village official. If I accept money, people will criticize me if they find out."
Chen Man: "...Thank you."
Chen Man finally transferred 35 yuan to him.
She decided to buy her grandmother a pack of cigarettes after she was discharged from the hospital, as she couldn't give her grandmother money anyway.
"No one will occupy this bed for the next few days. If you are tired, you can lie down and rest on it."
"Yeah, okay."
It was getting dark. Chen Man saw Xu Junyang still sitting in the ward. He would go out to make a phone call, and then come back to sit in a chair and tap on his phone.
When he has free time, he peels fruit.
"Here, ask your grandma if she wants to eat it." Xu Junyang handed her a peeled apple.
Chen Man fed half of it to her grandmother bit by bit.
She stuffed the rest into her mouth and ate it.
"Why don't you go back? It's getting dark."
Xu Junyang handed her another pomelo segment and said, "Wait a minute, there's no rush."
Chen Man subconsciously took the pomelo.
"You should go back first. It's too late to drive. We don't need any help here."
"Um."
Although I agreed verbally, the phone rang again just after I finished speaking.
He went out to answer a phone call and came back to continue unpacking snacks. "Dried mango, do you want some?"
Chen Man: ...
