The doctor fixed Lu Shi's shoulder blade and sent him to the ward for an IV. He also instructed Zhang Weifang:
"During these few days, the patient cannot turn over and it will be difficult for him to stand up on his own. Family members should stay by his side to take good care of him and help him eat nutritious food so that he can recover quickly."
"Okay, thank you, doctor."
Uncle Feng and his son saw that Lu Shi was fine, and they both had to go to work, so they said goodbye:
"Weifang, we're leaving first. Please take good care of him."
"Okay, thank you. Sorry to bother you so early in the morning."
After seeing off the Feng family father and son, Zhang Weifang returned to the ward. Seeing Lu Shi lying weakly on the bed, she asked:
"Are you feeling better?"
"Much better, thank you."
"You're welcome. Your clothes are soaked. I'll go find you something to change into at home. Otherwise, you'll easily get sick."
"Well, thank you." Lu Shi gave Zhang Weifang a rare good look.
Zhang Weifang returned home, exchanged a few buns from the system, let Hu Zi eat, and then sent Hu Zi to school.
She went to her workplace again to ask for leave, and finally returned to the hospital.
When Zhang Weifang returned, Lu Shi had already fallen asleep, but his brows were still furrowed, probably because he was in great pain.
Zhang Weifang walked over and gently pushed his body, and Lu Shi woke up immediately. His eyes were confused and a little misty, and he looked much more comfortable, no longer his usual "arrogant" look.
"Lu Shi, change your clothes first, then eat something before going to bed."
Lu Shi felt very embarrassed to have others serve him. After all, he had always been an independent person who did not like to rely on others since he was a child.
At this moment, although his body was weak, the stubbornness deep in his heart made him try to struggle to sit up.
However, reality dealt him a heavy blow. No matter how hard he tried, his injured left shoulder seemed to have lost control and he was completely unable to exert any strength.
After trying several times, Lu Shi finally realized that it would be difficult to achieve his goal by himself.
Just then, Zhang Weifang came over and carefully helped Lu Shi up.
Feeling the other party's concern and support, Lu Shi felt a warm current in his heart. Although he was a little reluctant, under the circumstances, he could only accept this kindness.
In fact, Lu Shi’s arms were not convenient for changing clothes at the moment, but wearing wet clothes was not good for the body, so with Lu Shi’s consent, Zhang Weifang found a pair of scissors and cut his clothes open directly.
Lu Shi has fair skin and looks thin, but his flesh is firm. He is not the muscular type, but he is definitely full of strength.
Lu Shi was stripped naked and felt uncomfortable all over. Zhang Weifang came back with a basin of hot water and wiped his body with a towel.
After wiping, Zhang Weifang found that it was difficult to put on clothes. She was holding a black vest in her hand and didn't know how to start.
Finally, Zhang Weifang hardened her heart and cut the left shoulder strap of the vest, and then made it into a "suspender style". Although it was not beautiful, at least she could wear it.
It was summer now, and Lu Shi was not cold even with just one piece of clothing on, so he didn't bother wearing a short-sleeved shirt.
After changing clothes, it was time to change pants. Zhang Weifang definitely couldn't do this by herself. She wanted to go out and find a nurse, but was directly opposed by Lu Shi.
When Lu Shi heard that the nurse had to change her pants, he refused to agree even if he was beaten to death.
Zhang Weifang asked in embarrassment:
"Lu Shi, how about I go out and find a man to help you change?"
"No, I won't change." Lu Shi's tone became cold again.
"You eat first!" Zhang Weifang changed the subject.
Lu Shi ate all three buns and a bowl of porridge. After he was full, he became gentler.
"I'll convert these food and clothes into cash and return them to you when I get back."
"Of course, and your medical expenses were all paid by me, don't forget." Zhang Weifang would not be polite with him, and all the money that should be counted must be included.
In the end, Lu Shi still didn't change his pants, and Zhang Weifang stayed away from him because she disliked his smell.
The nurse who came to check on me jokingly said:
"You two are really interesting. You're the only family member who's still disgusted with you."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Weifang almost jumped up:
"He and I are not family."
She was just repaying his previous help and doing good deeds, but she couldn't get herself involved. This man was too cold and had a bad temper, and she couldn't stand it.
After Zhang Weifang finished speaking, the nurse gave the two of them a teasing look and left.
In the afternoon, Lu Shi looked much better. The doctor checked him and found that his high fever had subsided, so he was discharged from the hospital.
"Go home and take good care of yourself. It takes a hundred days for a broken bone to heal. If you don't heal well, you won't be able to lift your arm in the future."
When Lu Shi heard the seriousness of the matter, he immediately agreed.
After leaving the hospital, Zhang Weifang found a bicycle parked at the hospital entrance, asked Lu Shi to sit on the back seat, and she got on the bicycle and left with him.
When she first climbed up, Zhang Weifang almost couldn't move her legs. She turned her head and glanced at Lu Shi with disdain in her eyes:
"You're too heavy."
Zhang Weifang pushed hard with his legs again, and the bicycle finally started to turn. Lu Shi said at this time:
"I'm not heavy, it's you who don't have the strength."
"Huh? I take care of my son every day, how could I not have the strength? You must weigh at least 150 pounds, right?"
"Definitely not over 150." Lu Shicai would never admit that he was overweight.
When they returned to the entrance of the alley, Zhang Weifang stopped and let Lu Shi walk back by himself. If the two of them went back together, there would definitely be rumors in the alley.
Lu Shi also knew this, so he walked home by himself, and Zhang Weifang turned around and went to the school to pick up Hu Zi.
Hu Zi was very happy to see his mother. He chattered all the way, talking about his daily life at school, and Zhang Weifang responded as usual.
When the two returned home, Zhang Weifang started cooking. She planned to have some noodle soup with a cucumber in the evening. It was simple and refreshing, and more suitable for summer.
In midsummer, the heat is unbearable, and even if there is an occasional breeze, it is a warm breeze that brings heat waves.
Hu Zi was playing shirtless in the yard. His round little face was covered in sweat, but he showed no intention of stopping to rest.
Recently, the house has been extremely hot and stuffy, like a huge steamer. Even though there is an electric fan, I still can't feel any coolness.
Lying in bed every day, Zhang Weifang would especially miss the cave house in his hometown, which was warm in winter and cool in summer.
Lu Shi returned home alone, holding the headboard with his right hand and slowly lying down. This simple action made his pain doubled.
