Chapter 285
The Xu family understood what the doctor said, and knew that Grandma Xu might not have much time left.
It was really hard for Xu Di to accept it. Her grandmother was the one who loved her the most. From her grandmother, she received the love that she could never get in two lifetimes.
"Xiao Di, don't cry, your grandma will be fine."
Aunt Xu held Xiaodi in her arms. She understood this child and knew that her grandmother really loved her.
Not long after the baby was born, he was taken back by the old lady and fed by her mouthful of water.
"Second Aunt, let me take some time. I'm going to wash my face. I can't let Grandma see it.
My second uncle and grandfather will be here soon, and I’m afraid my grandfather won’t be able to accept it. ”
Grandpa Xu and Grandma Xu have lived together for so many years. They have a good relationship and are well-known in the surrounding villages.
"Okay, go wash your face, and we'll go back to the ward first."
Aunt Xu and the others returned to the ward, and the nurse was applying massage to grandma's face.
Xu Di washed his face and calmed himself down before returning to the ward.
"Grandpa, you're here."
"Don't be afraid, Xiao Di. Grandpa knows. I'll ask Xiao Yong to go back and get me some clean clothes. I have to stay here with your grandma."
"Okay, let's stay with grandma together."
Xu Di blinked quickly to hold back the tears.
"Uncle, Aunt, you guys should go back later. Aunt, pack up the things you often use and have Xu Yong bring them over.
The house cannot be left unattended all the time. You can come over every now and then. Don't worry, I will be with you at the hospital. ”
"Xiao Di, you have Aunt Qian and three children at home. Is it okay for you to stay here forever?"
Aunt Xu knew that Xiaodi had a lot of things to do at home and Chaoyang was busy with work.
"Second Aunt, it's okay. We have Sister Cai and Sister Gong at home. Nuannuan and the others are older too. They can take care of their own affairs and take good care of Grandma."
Xu Di is not worried about home because the children are at home and there are two domestic helpers.
"Okay, just listen to Xiaodi.
Our mother has been strong all her life. Now she is lying in bed and she doesn’t like to trouble others.
We'll come over every other day, and you and Xiaodi will help our mom clean up.
Our mother won’t find it troublesome if you and Xiaodi take care of her. ”
Uncle Xu understands his old mother well. She is the only one who doesn't mind at all towards her daughter-in-law and Xiaodi.
"Okay, I understand."
Father Xu listened to Dazhi and Xiaodi discussing their mother's affairs, and Xu Yong and Xiaojia also followed Xu Di's arrangements. He felt that they were real father and daughter, brothers and sisters.
He felt sad, but he didn't say anything.
They bear a great responsibility for the current situation.
Everything was arranged, and Xu Yong sent his parents back to the village and brought some clean clothes for his grandfather.
Xu Jia returned to the unit. She still had some work to do and she could only ask for leave after she finished it.
Song Yazhou also contacted the hospital and his family also knew someone there who asked them to take better care of the patient.
Father Xu did not leave. He was fine and could stay here to keep an eye on his father, so Xiao Di wouldn't have to worry about taking care of her grandfather.
Grandma Xu woke up at noon and felt a little more energetic.
"Old man, why are you here?"
"I came here to accompany you because I was worried. Are you feeling better? The doctor said that you should stay here, get injections and take medicine on time, and you will get better."
"Okay, I'll listen to you.
Where is Xiaodi? Has he returned home? ”
Grandma Xu saw her eldest son but not Xiaodi, and felt a little uneasy.
"Xiao Di has gone out to buy something and will be back soon.
Xiaodi said that she is on vacation and will always be here with you. ”
"What about the child and Qian Mei?"
Grandma Xu is worried about Nuannuan and the others, as well as Grandma Chaoyang, who is not young anymore.
“Xiao Di said it’s okay, Chaoyang got a promotion, and there’s an extra orderly at home.
Don’t worry about Nuannuan and the other three, she is here with you. ”
"That's good. I feel uneasy without Xiaodi."
Grandma Xu talked for a while and then started coughing again.
"Mom, please stop talking. Is your throat uncomfortable?"
Father Xu poured half a cup of warm water and gave Grandma Xu some water to suppress her cough.
Xu Di came back carrying a lot of bags. She bought some daily necessities.
"Grandma, you're awake now, are you feeling better?"
"Much better."
"That's good. The doctor said we need to stay in the hospital for a while. Once we're better, we can go home."
While Xu Di was sorting the things she bought, she was chatting with her grandmother.
She asked grandma to talk less, mainly because she said that Grandpa Xu would occasionally interject a word or two.
The atmosphere in the ward was better, not as depressing as when I first arrived.
Grandma Xu lives in a single room with a bed for a caregiver and a separate bathroom.
Xu Di rented a single bed from the hospital and bought a sponge mattress, and Xu Yong's wife sent over a set of bedding.
In this way, Grandpa and Xu Di both have a place to stay at night.
The nurse comes to take care of her during the day, so Xu Di can have a rest. Grandma Xu also needs to get an injection at night.
Brother Xu and his friends came over to take a look, talked for a while, and then went back.
Xu Mei and his wife also came over to take a look, put down their things, and left without saying a few words.
Xu Mei always felt that her grandparents favored Xu Di, and she didn't like going to her grandparents' house since she was a child.
Grandma Xu doesn't mind. She doesn't care whether you come or not.
She knew that she might not make it.
The reason why she didn't insist on going home was that she would be more comfortable in the hospital and the children would be more relaxed.
When I get home, my cough becomes more severe, my whole body aches, and my mood suffers.
She didn't want the last period of her life to be too difficult.
"Sister, Grandpa, Grandma, I'm back."
Xu Qiang rushed back from the south. It was the end of the year and he had a lot of things to do.
"What's the hurry? Why is it so messy?"
Grandma Xu looked at Xu Qiang, who had an untidy beard and looked old.
"I am so anxious. I won't feel at ease unless I see it with my own eyes."
Xu Qiang looked at his weak grandmother, holding himself together and making jokes.
"Your sister is here, what are you worried about?"
"That's right. My sister is our backbone."
Xu Qiang chatted with his grandmother for a while, and the old lady fell asleep again.
The doctor said that it’s good to be able to fall asleep, which can reduce pain and make you more comfortable.
"Let's go out and talk."
Xu Di asked the nurse to look after his grandparents while he and Xu Qiang went out.
"Sister, grandma?"
“The doctor said that grandma had a serious lung infection and that she was old and all her health indicators were not good, so surgery was unnecessary.
Now she is staying in the hospital and receiving intravenous drips every day, which can relieve grandma's pain and make her feel more comfortable.
As for whether he can recover, that depends on how he treats it. The drug is not absorbed well. ”
As Xu Di spoke, tears started to flow again.
She usually endures it because she is afraid that her grandparents will worry.
When Xu Qiang came back, she couldn't hold it anymore.
"Sister, it's okay. No matter what, let's make grandma feel better and happy."
"Yeah, I know, I just can't help it."
Xu Qiang understood that her sister had a deep relationship with her grandparents, deeper than her relationship with her uncle and aunt.
Now that Xu Qiang is back, Xu Di can feel a little more relaxed.
No matter what happens, the two of them basically agree, and neither of them needs to report to the unit.
Nuannuan and the other two would come over and talk to their great-grandmother every few days.
Tuantuan brought a pot of flowers from home, adding a touch of green to the ward.
Nuannuan and Yuanyuan would tell their great-grandmother about things at school, and Tuantuan would also play a cheerful tune on the erhu for her.
Xu Jia and the others also took turns to come and talk to grandma.
There is always laughter coming from Grandma Xu's ward, unlike other wards, where the most common sounds are sighs, screams, and crying.
