Chapter Eighty-Five: A Little Story in the Ward
Yue Haohan finished the hospitalization procedures, and when he arrived at the doctor's office, the doctor who happened to start picking up Zhen was there, and when he saw Yue Haohan coming in, the doctor asked, "Have the hospitalization procedures been completed?" ”
Yue Haohan said: "It's just done." The doctor said, "Then we'll do the surgery right away." Yue Haohan answered, and went back to Ward 5.
When I arrived at the ward, I saw Zheng Ziyan and his two younger sisters, sitting in front of the old man's bed, chatting with the old man, the old man was still 'gurgling' and speaking in dialect, Yue Haohan looked at the old man's face, there was no painful look when he first came, and his face was kind and gentle on Zheng Ziyan, Yue Chunfang, and Yue Chunxia.
Yue Haohan saw Zheng Ziyan talking to the old man and asked, "Ziyan, can you understand grandma's words?" ”
Zheng Ziyan said: "I can understand a few words, grandma speaks the East China Sea dialect, I have a classmate who is a native of the East China Sea, every time our classmates are playing together, we will occasionally follow her to learn a few words of the East China Sea dialect; I just heard what my grandmother said, and the content was the word 'daughter'.
When Yue Haohan was talking to Zheng Ziyan, the doctor came in, looked at everyone, and said, "You family members, help the nurse push the old man into the operating room, and we will operate immediately." ”
Yue Haohan, Zheng Ziyan and their two younger sisters, helping the nurse, carefully pushed the old man into the door of the orthopedic surgery room, and several people stood outside the door of the operating room, looking inside.
"I can't contact my grandmother's family for a while, so the three of you go back first, make some soup in the evening and send it over, you need nutrition for fracture recovery." Yue Haohan stood at the door of the operating room and said.
"Brother Haohan, I'm here to help you take care of grandma, and you can ask her about her situation slowly later; Let Chunfang and Chunxia go back first. Zheng Ziyan looked at Yue Haohan and said.
"That's fine!" Yue Haohan walked to the chair at the door of the operating room and sat down.
After Yue Chunfang and Yue Chunxia left, Zheng Ziyan sat down beside Yue Haohan and said, "Brother Haohan, after grandma's operation is over in a while, I'll ask her slowly to see if I can ask where she lives." Yue Haohan said "um" and didn't speak again.
About an hour or so, the door of the operating room opened, and the old man was pushed out by the protector, and Yue Haohan saw that the old man's left calf had been fixed with a plaster. He and Zheng Ziyan hurriedly stood up and helped the nurse send the old man back to the ward.
The old man was lying on the hospital bed, with a pair of eyes, never leaving Yue Haohan Zhizheng Ziyan. Zheng Ziyan sat on the edge of the old man's bed, took the old man's hand, and looked at the old man with a smile, "Grandma, you will say slow down, we don't understand if you say fast", the old man looked at Zheng Ziyan and nodded, "My daughter...... Propaganda ......" Zheng Ziyan finally understood a few words, and said to Yue Haohan beside him: "Brother Haohan, I heard grandma say, my daughter, propaganda or something, I don't understand it later."
Yue Haohan said: "Don't ask about this first, just after the operation, let grandma rest for a while; In other respects, it's nothing, I'm afraid that my grandmother's family will be in a hurry, so we'll think of other ways. ”
At this time, the middle-aged woman who had just woken up in the adjacent bed looked at the old man and said, "The operation is over so soon?" After the plaster is fixed on the leg, it is inconvenient to urinate and defecate; You have to be accompanied at night, and when I first started moving in, my daughter was here every night, alas! It's not a big deal. ”
Yue Haohan turned his head to look at the middle-aged woman and asked, "Auntie, is your home far away from the People's Hospital?" Why didn't you see your family here to accompany you? ”
The middle-aged woman said: "My home is not far from here, and I live in the family courtyard of the Finance Bureau; I can now get out of bed on my own and move with crutches; Every day, my daughter brings food after work. ”
Yue Haohan asked, "Auntie works at the Finance Bureau?"
The middle-aged woman said, "Well, I work in the Industrial Communications Unit of the Finance Bureau. ”
Just as the two of them were talking without saying a word, a group of people pushed an old man in. The old man who had just come in was placed in a hospital bed near the entrance door, and the old man was lying down, looking very angry.
A man in his thirties, like a patient's son, walked around anxiously beside the bed, "Mom, what do you want?" The man wiped the sweat from his head, and the old man in the hospital bed turned his head inside. The son was anxious to stomp his feet, but he couldn't, only to see him tear open the placket of his shirt and fan it indiscriminately.
On the other side of the hospital bed stood a woman in her thirties and a woman in her twenties, presumably the old man's daughter-in-law and daughter. "Is it a square or a square?" My sister looked at her sister-in-law and asked.
"What the hell is it?" The two of them spoke together, and looked at each other with pained expressions on their faces.
Yue Haohan looked at the family puzzled, seeing that the man had been walking back and forth by the bedside in a hurry, he couldn't help but ask, "Big brother, what is the old man's illness, why are you so anxious?" ”
The man glanced at Yue Haohan, "Since my mother suffered from this stroke and was silent and hemiplegic, the most uncomfortable thing for us is that she can't speak or write. My mother's mood is getting worse day by day, and we have no way of knowing what is on her mind, even her daily requirements. If she guesses correctly, she nods, and if she doesn't guess correctly, she gets angry, she is anxious, others are also anxious, and today is even more urgent. The man stopped walking around, and stood to explain to Yue Haohan.
"Early this morning, my mom asked me for something. She gestured with one hand, drew a square in the air, pointed to her own face, my face, and then made a gesture of turning over and stroking something, the first few times, my mother was very patient, and sometimes she stopped, thinking affectionately for a while.
I picked up her bedside pill box, lunch box, magazine, comb...... She shook her head. I asked my mother to go to the store and buy boxes of snacks, candy bars, and chocolates, and my mother started to get angry when she saw this. I put the semiconductor radio in front of my mom again, but she threw it to the ground and screamed for a while, so I hurriedly called my sister to call her. After my sister came, my mom still didn't guess what she wanted.
Morning passed, and my mother didn't eat a bite of food at noon. She takes a nap every day, but today she doesn't seem to be sleepy at all. She didn't want it anymore and just lay on the bed dumbfounded. In the afternoon we thought she was asleep, just left for a while, she somehow got up from the bed, fell to the ground, and hit her ankle, to see that her foot and neck are still swollen, we were afraid that she had a fracture, so we sent her. When the man had finished, he fanned his open collar a few more times, and then stood beside the old man's bed, looking at the old man.
"Grandma, grandma, what's wrong with you?" A pretty, lovely little girl of seven or eight years old, carrying a bag, trotted into the ward, and the old man heard the shout, opened his eyes, calmed down, and trembled and stretched out his withered hand that could only move to caress his granddaughter's little apple-like face.
"Grandma, I've got what you want." The granddaughter took out a photo album from her schoolbag and handed it to her grandmother. The old man on the hospital bed nodded and smiled happily.
The granddaughter took off her shoes and snuggled into her grandmother's arms. With her little hands, she flipped through the album page by page to show her grandmother. Each photo, black and white, color, yellowed, and out of the corners...... Every photo has an endless story, and every time the granddaughter points to a photo, she tells her grandmother for a while.
Standing by the bedside, the old man's son looked at this scene and said to himself: "In the past, when my mother was well, she always told my girl the story in the photo, and today my girl told her grandmother." ”
The two faces on the hospital bed, the old and the young, were pasted together; Two tears, cloudy and clear, merged into one large drop, which flowed down between the two faces.
The old man's son, daughter, daughter-in-law, doctors and nurses who had just come in, clinical aunts, Yue Haohan, Zheng Ziyan and the grandmother on the hospital bed, everyone looked at this scene, and their hearts were indescribable.
Under the doctor's arrangement, the old man was pushed out of the ward and went to the X-ray room for examination, and the little girl always used her little hand to hold the old man's dry hand.
The ward was suddenly much quieter, and the aunt from the Clinical Finance Bureau said, "It seems that the little granddaughter understands grandma's thoughts!" ”
After a while, the family who came in just now pushed the old man back, the man was holding an X-ray in his hand, and after coming in, Yue Haohan asked the man, "Big brother, are you okay?" The man said, "It's okay, there is no fracture, but when I collapsed, I strained my muscle, and I will go back to recuperate for a few days, and we will go home immediately; I wish your families a speedy recovery as well! ”
After the family left, after a while, a slim girl with a lunch box in her hand, twenty-two or three-year-old, walked to the middle-aged woman's bed in the Finance Bureau, opened the lunch box, and said: "Mom, I made you the local chicken soup tonight, and the doctor said to drink more chicken soup, and the fracture site will recover quickly." ”
The middle-aged woman from the Finance Bureau sat up, leaned on the bed, took a bowl of chicken soup handed over by her daughter, looked at Yue Haohan and Zheng Ziyan, and said, "My daughter also just graduated from the University of Finance and Economics this year, and she is assigned to the tax bureau. ”
Yue Haohan smiled and said, "Taxation Bureau, good unit, my sister-in-law also works there." ”
"Your sister-in-law? What is it called? Maybe we're still in a department. The girl tilted her head, looked at Yue Haohan for a while with a pair of beautiful big eyes, and asked.
Yue Haohan said: "Jin Xiaohui, do you know each other?" ”
"I know you so well! The two of us have an office, my name is Liang Siyu; Your surname is Zhang? The girl's eyes widened, and she looked at Yue Haohan and asked.
"My brother's surname is Yue, not Zhang, Jin Xiaohui is my brother's brother's wife, Brother Zhang, so my brother calls her sister-in-law." Zheng Ziyan mischievously came up with a tongue twister.
Liang Sifan smiled, looked at Zheng Ziyan, and said, "Little sister is so beautiful!" I'm afraid there is no second girl in Jiangyang County who can have such a beautiful girl as you. ”
Liang Siyu's mother on the hospital bed took a sip of chicken soup and took Liang Siyu's words with a smile, "My sister is beautiful, my brother is handsome, your parents must be handsome and your mother is beautiful." ”
Zheng Ziyan smiled happily, "Of course!" ”
Several people chatted, and saw Yue Chunfang carrying a lunch box in her hand, and Yue Chunxia followed behind and walked in. Liang Siyu looked at Yue Chunfang and Yue Chunxia who came in, and said with a smile: "It seems that a beauty contest is being held in this ward today!" ”
Yue Chunfang put the lunch box on the bedside table and said, "Brother, Mom's stewed bone broth said that the bone broth is rich in calcium, and it recovers quickly after drinking it." Brother, have you contacted your grandmother's family? ”
Yue Haohan said: "Not yet, grandma's family must be in a hurry, but I can't understand her words, I really can't help it!" As he spoke, Yue Haohan raised the hospital bed, let the old man lean on it, filled a bowl of bone broth, and began to feed it slowly.
Liang Siyu's mother drank a bowl of chicken soup, and after putting down the bowl, she asked Yue Haohan and said, "Xiaoyue, what major did you study at Jianghan University, and how did you get to the township?" ”
Yue Haohan said: "Auntie, I majored in history, and I originally wanted to study as a graduate student and engage in the study of our Chinese culture, but I was later selected by the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee as a selected student, and I ended up going to the township when I came back. ”
Liang Siyu interjected and said, "Graduated from Jianghan University? Assigned to work in the township, isn't that a pearl a secret investment! Your name is Yue Haohan, and I heard Sister Xiaohui in the same office mention you. After speaking, Liang Siyu blushed and glanced at Yue Haohan.
Seeing Yue Haohan chatting with Liang Siyu's mother and daughter, Zheng Ziyan took the soup bowl in Yue Haohan's hand, wiped the mouth of the old man on the hospital bed with a napkin, and began to feed the old man the soup carefully.
Yue Haohan got up, sat at the head of the old man's bed, looked at Liang Siyu's mother, and asked, "Auntie, does your Finance Bureau have funds to support bridge building every year?" How do you generally get funding for this? ”
Liang Siyu's mother smiled and said, "You will call me Aunt Zhang in the future, and my name will be Zhang Yuelan." The special funds for building bridges and roads are managed by the Finance Bureau's Industry and Communications Unit, how? Do you want to build bridges when you first get to work? ”
Yue Haohan said: "I'm just asking, I don't know much about this aspect. Aunt Zhang, there has been no bridge on the Longwang River in the Heiyazi Management Area where I work, and it is very inconvenient for thousands of people in five villages to produce and live, and I don't know what the county and township think, and I don't build a bridge on the river. ”
Zhang Yuelan looked at Yue Haohan and said: "Xiaoyue, in fact, the province allocates funds to Jiangyang County every year, but because of the tight county finances, most of them have been misappropriated by the county, and a small part of it has been used by the leaders for face projects and image projects. ”
Yue Haohan and Zhang Yuelan were chatting, Zheng Ziyan had already finished feeding a bowl of soup to the old man, and was about to continue feeding the old man, seeing that the old man shook his head and said that he would not drink it anymore.
Zheng Ziyan put down the bowl, and Yue Chunfang said: "Sister Ziyan, when you come, my mother said, let you and your brother go home for dinner, Chunxia and I will take care of the elderly here at night, you can just come over tomorrow morning." ”
