Chapter 34 Smooth Delivery
When Xiao Qinyun rushed to the hospital, Qiao Qinglu was still awake. After learning about Sister Gu's performance, she sighed and felt scared. She sent her away, otherwise something might happen.
I said nothing else, but I was afraid that something would go wrong during the birth, and it would be too late to regret then.
After a while of gossip, everyone stopped talking and stopped talking.
The next morning, Qiao's mother came over with some pork rib soup she had cooked. After Xiao Qinyun handed the soup over to Qiao's mother and instructed the two brothers in the hospital to keep an eye on the ward and the stairwell, he went to the post office.
Xiao Qinyun first called the steel plant and told his father that Qiao Qinglu had been hospitalized and would give birth the next day.
When Mr. Xiao heard Zheng's situation, he said that the retired female soldier and the nanny would be available the next day, and he would take them to the hospital's inpatient department.
Xiao Qinyun called the machinery factory again and asked Engineer Jiang if anyone from the factory was looking for him and if they had his phone number.
Engineer Jiang was stunned and told him that only Xiao Wang from the R&D workshop had asked him about it, but he didn't say anything after knowing that he had asked for leave. No one has called him yet.
Xiao Qinyun asked Engineer Jiang to help him keep an eye on the security guard for the next few days to see if anyone was looking for him or if there was any phone number for him. If necessary, he could go to the hospital to find him.
When his apprentice asks for something, Jiang Gong will naturally respond.
Xiao Qinyun rode his bike back to the Wangfujing courtyard and asked the four brothers, but there was no news. He told them that he had been in the hospital recently and asked them to go to the obstetrics and gynecology department of the hospital to find him, and then he returned to the hospital.
In the afternoon, Xiao's father came with two retired female soldiers and a nanny.
The baby-faced female soldier is called Wang Xiaoying, from Hebei Province, 25 years old; the heroic-looking one is Miao Jinfeng, from Heilongjiang Province, 26 years old; the nanny Aunt Qiu is 51 years old, from Shanxi Province. She has clear eyes and simple clothes. She is the mother of a martyr.
Xiao Qinyun and Qiao Qinglu were both very satisfied with them. Considering the long-term cooperation, they asked about their family situation in detail.
Wang Xiaoying is engaged to a fellow villager and they are about to get married; Miao Jinfeng is married to a man who is also in the army and is currently serving in a military region in the south. He is not able to join the army because of his low rank; Aunt Qiu has a son and a daughter. Her daughter is married, her son died, and her daughter-in-law remarried. Now, only her husband and two grandchildren are left at home.
After understanding the situation, Xiao Qinyun told them that they would be on trial for a month first. Aunt Qiu would be responsible for shopping and cooking, while Wang Xiaoying and Miao Jinfeng would take turns to keep watch in the hospital and look after Qiao Qinglu and the child. The salary during the probation period was 30 yuan a month, and after passing the trial, the salary would be 45 yuan a month.
Afterwards, seeing that they were exhausted, Qiao Qinglu asked Qiao Ma to take the three of them back to the courtyard on the Wangfujing side to freshen up, and then the Wang and Miao people would come over to keep watch at night.
There are not many people coming to the hospital for childbirth now. Qiao Qinglu lives in a double ward, which is a bit expensive. She is the only patient at the moment, and there is enough space for a few folding beds on the open space.
At around 7 o'clock in the evening, the nurse came to inform Qiao Qinglu that the surgery would be at 8 o'clock the next morning, and she should take a shower at the latest, not eat anything after 8 o'clock, and not drink water after 12 o'clock.
The night passed peacefully again, and the page of September 30th was finally torn off the calendar, and it came to October 1st, 1974.
At 7:30 that morning, the nurse came to the ward to prepare Qiao Qinglu for the operation and then pushed her into the operating room.
The Xiao family, the Qiao family, Wang Xiaoying, and Miao Jinfeng were all waiting anxiously outside the operating room, especially Xiao Qinyun. He knew that everything was ready and there would be no problem, but he still couldn't help but worry.
The clock ticked away, and Xiao Qinyun stood outside the operating room motionless. After Qiao's mother had tried to persuade him several times, she had no choice but to let him go.
Finally, a sound of "Wow...Wow..." came from the operating room.
Following the sound of footsteps, the operating room opened a crack, and a pretty nurse poked her head out and asked, "Who is Qiao Qinglu's family member?"
Xiao Qinyun immediately went to meet him and said, "I am here. Are my wife and children here?"
The young nurse nodded. "The operation went smoothly. Are the baby's clothes and blankets ready? Bring them to me quickly."
Hearing the nurse's words, Mother Qiao quickly handed her the clothes. The nurse took the clothes and closed the door of the operating room.
After a while, the lights in the operating room finally went out, the door opened, Qiao Qinglu's bed was pushed out, and several children were also carried out.
