Chapter 322 Hospitalization
After all the employees received their New Year welfare supplies and went home for the holiday,
Wang Yuanchao put his New Year welfare supplies on the jeep and
asked Liu Wanyou to help deliver them to their homes. The mother-in-law and Wang Yuanchao each held a little girl, and the young wife held the little girl's clothes, diapers and milk powder.
After sending the two little kids to Aunt Xinghua's house, he went back to put the quilt and mattress pad in the trunk of the jeep. The family of three locked the gate of their home and drove in the jeep towards the county hospital.
Four-wheeled vehicles are very convenient. Soon the jeep stopped at the entrance of the County People's Hospital.
Wang Yuanchao led Widow Du and Zhang Yuanyuan to complete the hospitalization procedures first, and then the family came to the single room that had been prepared for Zhang Yuanyuan. Zhang Yuanyuan will be hospitalized here to take care of the fetus and wait for delivery.
After Widow Du helped Zhang Yuanyuan lie down on the bed to rest, she began to clean up the ward.
While Wang Yuanchao was counting the missing supplies in the ward, he said, "Mom, Yuanyuan, you guys rest in the ward for a while. I'll go to the street to buy the missing things."
"Okay, Yuan Chao, go quickly and come back soon."
"Okay, don't worry, I'll be back soon."
After saying that, Wang Yuanchao took Liu Wanyou and drove to Ji'an Street in the county town.
It's the cat-winter season now, and the commercial atmosphere on Ji'an Street is more intense than ever. Long queues form in front of the doors of shops, restaurants, and hotels all along the street. The shops are doing so well that all goods are in short supply and people have to queue up to buy them.
Especially in grain stores and grocery stores, the queues for buying grain have stretched for dozens of meters. There are so many people that you can't see the end at a glance.
This scene was much more spectacular than the queues people had to queue up to buy new mobile phones in later generations.
Sitting in the car and quickly passing through the bustling Ji'an Street, Wang Yuanchao and Liu Wanyou came directly to the department store in the county town. At this time, the department store was crowded with people and very lively.
People were carefully selecting goods for the New Year. Wang Yuanchao finally squeezed to the candy counter.
The salesperson said impatiently, "Don't push, don't push, come one by one."
Wang Yuanchao quickly took out the candy coupons from his pocket and said, "Comrade, weigh me five catties of white sugar, five catties of brown sugar, five catties of fruit candy, and five catties of White Rabbit milk candy."
The salesperson weighed the sugar and said, "This saccharin is expensive. Where did you get so many sugar coupons and money?"
Wang Yuanchao said speechlessly: "Hey, this is the ticket I saved for a year. It's the New Year, and the children are looking forward to this little bit of sweetness."
At this time, a man who looked like an official came over and said, "Give me three pounds too. I have many children at home and they all love to eat it."
The salesperson rolled his eyes at him and said, "Wait, come one by one."
Then they came to the counter selling fabrics. Wang Yuanchao touched a piece of floral fabric, thought for a moment, and said:
"The baby will be born soon. The baby's skin is tender and this piece of cloth is very soft. It will definitely be great to make clothes for the baby."
The salesperson curled his lips and said, "This cloth is eight cents a meter, it's not cheap."
Wang Yuanchao frowned. Even though he had been in this era for so many years, he was still not used to the attitude of the salesmen in this era.
But he had no choice, so Wang Yuanchao honestly took out the cloth coupons and money and said, "Give me thirty inches of this cloth."
A housewife nearby was also selecting fabrics, muttering, "Leave some of this for me, it feels really soft."
After buying the cloth, Wang Yuanchao took Liu Wanyou to the counter selling cakes.
Wang Yuanchao watched Liu Wanyou staring at the cakes, swallowed his saliva, and murmured, "This jujube paste cake looks really delicious."
The salesperson at the counter said impatiently:
"This jujube paste cake is 1.5 yuan per pound. Hurry up if you want it."
Wang Yuanchao looked at Liu Wanyou's embarrassed expression and said, "Weigh one pound. I have a ticket. You can take it back and let the elderly at home try it."
At this time, a girl who looked like a student said timidly: "Auntie, can I buy half a catty?"
The salesperson frowned and said, "I won't sell you half a catty. The minimum is one catty."
The girl lowered her head in disappointment.
After buying the pastries, Wang Yuanchao went to the area selling daily necessities and picked out pots, pans, and utensils.
After buying an enamel washbasin, two enamel pots, three towels, toothbrush, toothpaste, and a thermos, Wang Yuanchao and Liu Wanyou walked out of the department store with their hands full of things.
After getting on the jeep, Wang Yuanchao packed the date paste cake, some fruit candies, and White Rabbit milk candies he had just bought into a bag, handed it to Liu Wanyou, and said:
"Come here, Wanyou. It's almost winter. As your leader, I haven't prepared anything for you. Take these candies and cakes back to sweeten the mouths of your family."
Liu Wanyou had just started the jeep, but before he could even start, Wang Yuanchao stuffed an oil-paper bag into his hand. He quickly refused, saying, "Director, this is not okay, this is not okay. I'm supposed to be the one delivering the stuff to you.
How can a leader give gifts to his subordinates? I dare not take this, Director, no, absolutely not."
Wang Yuanchao looked at Liu Wanyou's refusal and said with a straight face: "Okay, grown man, you dare not accept anything, what's the use of you? This is for your family to eat, not for you. Hurry up and take it. You know I don't need this little thing."
Liu Wanyou knew that Wang Yuanchao didn't need this. Just kidding, how could the director of a factory really be short of money? So after seeing Wang Yuanchao get angry, Liu Wanyou didn't dare to refuse anymore and immediately said, "Then I would like to thank the director on behalf of my family."
"That's right, men should be more decisive in doing things, and stop pushing things around like a woman. Okay, let's go."
"Okay, Director, please sit down, the car is starting."
Wang Yuanchao took the things he had just bought and put them in the ward opened by Zhang Yuanyuan, and then continued:
"Mom, wife, you stay in the ward for a while. I'm going to go see Brother Binzi and see where the house he prepared for us is. Before Yuanyuan gave birth, mom and I lived in the county town."
"Okay, Aonor, we got it."
After saying that, Wang Yuanchao took Liu Wanyou and drove to the county armed forces department.
In fact, since he got the jeep, Wang Yuanchao has been going to the county town frequently and has become familiar with all the streets in the county town.
However, Wang Yuanchao had no plans to develop in the county town in the future, so he never bought a house in the county town . When he came to the county town to do business, he came and left on the same day, and there was no need for the friends Wang Yuanchao made to arrange accommodation for him.
This time, his wife had already had experience giving birth to her first child, so she wasn't as nervous as the first time. Therefore, Wang Yuanchao didn't need to send her to the provincial hospital.
It would be the same if he delivered the baby in the county town. It just so happened that Wang Yuanchao had developed a network of contacts in the county health bureau, which he could use when necessary.
