"I have already arranged a time for you to meet. On Saturday evening, you can drive from Shanhe Village and have dinner at the home of the educated youth from Shangjin. They will arrange the details of the meeting."
"Okay, thank you, sister-in-law."
"But sister-in-law, I've never been in a relationship before. Do I need to prepare anything this time?"
"Prepare some gifts for the educated youth from Jin and his friends. After all, we are borrowing their venue."
"I know that."
"You can prepare a small gift for the girl. It doesn't need to be expensive. If she is satisfied, you can give it to her to express your feelings. As for their family, you don't need to buy anything for the time being. After all, you are just seeing each other this time and haven't made a promise yet. When you are sure, you can bring gifts to visit them formally. At that time, you need to bring something more formal. You can ask Aunt Wu for details. She knows more about these things."
"Okay, thank you, sister-in-law."
Huazi stayed for dinner in the evening. He ate and laughed foolishly, just like a silly Husky.
After eating, he stopped Song Fuyu from cleaning up the things, helped her wipe the table, and cleaned the kitchen before leaving.
Huazi still had a silly smile on his face when he returned to the dormitory, but no matter how his comrades asked him, he would not tell them what happened at the Yan family. He only said that they would know when the time came.
However, even if he didn't answer, he couldn't hide it from Xiaobai, Gu Yongyuan and other brothers who were very familiar with him. They knew at a glance that he must have found a partner, otherwise he wouldn't be so happy.
"Xiaobai, can you take half a day off tomorrow morning?"
"what?"
"I want you to go to the county town with me."
"what?"
"Go shopping with me."
"what?"
"What! What! You're asking even though you already know the answer!"
"What do I know? You didn't tell me!"
Xiaobai was asking questions even though he knew the answer. He just wanted to tease him.
"My sister-in-law introduced me to a girl, and I want to go to the county to pick out a gift for her."
"Your child is in your wife's belly now, so you should have some understanding of this, right?"
"What do I know? I know?"
"I was buying things for Shanshan, and you were the one who accompanied me!"
"That's perfect. I accompanied you last time, and this time it's your turn to accompany me."
"Okay, I'll ask the boss for half a day off later, but if he doesn't approve it, don't blame me!"
"Don't worry, we are brothers, and I won't get angry with you."
The next day, Yan Ziyuan approved Xiaobai's leave and agreed to let him accompany the excited and nervous Huazi to the county town. He had to take care of his brother's marriage, and maybe he could even let his wife receive a red envelope from the matchmaker, which would make her happy.
..........
Song Fuyu did not wait for Huazi and the others to meet, because she received a call from Wang Pingan in Heng City on Thursday morning, saying that Chen Guoxing accidentally fell down the stairs yesterday evening because it was too slippery due to heavy rain in Heng City.
When she heard this, she hurriedly asked Uncle Wu to buy her a ticket for the nearest flight, and she flew to Heng City at 1:00 p.m. on Friday.
As soon as she landed, Xiao Chen, the driver from the steel plant, came to pick her up.
"Brother Chen, how is my father?"
"The factory director fell pretty badly. His left lower leg was shattered and fractured. His right hand was also fractured because he had to support himself on the ground. He also had multiple contusions on his body. The doctor performed surgery on him overnight. He is currently in the Central Hospital."
"It was too late the night before yesterday, so we didn't inform you. After the factory manager came out of the operating room, he specifically told us not to tell you, but after discussing it with Brother Ping An, we decided that we should inform you."
It can be said that the factory director has no other relatives except Comrade Song. His uncle's family can only come to see him at most, but it is obviously impossible for them to spare time to take care of him.
If you are injured and hospitalized without any loved ones by your side, you can imagine how painful that would be.
No matter how good a caregiver is, he or she can't be better than family members.
"Thank you for telling me."
“It should be.”
It took two and a half hours to drive from the airport to the hospital. It was almost seven o'clock when we arrived at the hospital.
"Thank you, Brother Chen. It's late and you haven't eaten yet. Go back first. I can go up by myself."
"How about I go buy you something to eat? You haven't eaten yet, have you?"
"Don't bother. I packed some food in my bag when I left home."
"Okay then, I'll go back first and come back tomorrow morning."
After saying goodbye to Xiao Chen, she went straight to the surgery department on the second floor.
When she first met my father, he brought her, who had a head injury, to the second floor of this hospital for examination, but now he was the one who was injured.
"Comrade, are you here to visit a patient?"
When the nurse at the front desk saw her coming so late with a large bag of luggage, she quickly stood up and asked her.
"Hello, I am the daughter of patient Chen Guoxing. May I ask which room my father lives in?"
"He's in Ward 205, bed number 6."
"Some patients have already started to rest, please keep your voice down."
"Okay, thank you for letting me know. I'll pay attention. Don't worry."
I found Ward 205, gently pushed the door open and walked in.
There are eight beds in the ward, and bed number six is located in the middle on the right side.
"Girl, who are you looking for?"
The family member of the patient in bed number two near the door saw her come in and asked.
She smiled and nodded to the other person, pointing to Chen Guoxing's bed.
"Are you Director Chen?"
