CHAPTER XIX
Fang Wei walked into the gate of the hospital with difficulty, holding on to the wall and panting, moving forward slowly, a hospital service staff saw this, hurriedly stepped forward to support Fang Wei, and asked; "Comrade, what's wrong with you? What's uncomfortable? β
Fang Wei replied weakly; "I have a cold and a high fever, and I don't have any strength at all."
The receptionist said; "Don't be nervous, I'll take you to the emergency room right away to see the doctor."
Fang Wei let people help him into the emergency room, the doctor saw his uncomfortable appearance, felt that the person who came was not lightly ill, and quickly asked the reason to ask the nurse to take the temperature, after the doctor looked at the temperature, he said to Fang Wei seriously; "You young man, you are really ignorant, you have a high fever of nearly forty degrees, why didn't you come to the hospital earlier? If you come later, something big will happen, and the whole person will be ............. β
The doctor did not continue to talk about the serious consequences of high fever, so as not to make the patient nervous.
The doctor asked the nurse to help Fang Wei sit on the chair, he quickly prescribed the medicine, and asked the nurse to quickly go and get the medicine, and the nurse trotted away.
Fang Wei sat on the chair, gasping for breath, and held on for a while, but he couldn't hold on anymore at a glance, so he lay down on the chair. At this time, the nurse came over quickly with the potion, quickly prepared the medicine, hung the liquid bottle on the stand, took Fang Wei's arm, pushed the sleeve to the top, and began to give Fang Wei a needle and infusion.
Fang Wei was dazed, maybe he didn't sleep well all night, mainly because of the high fever, he couldn't feel the pain of the nurse's needle, he was at the mercy of him, he fell asleep unconsciously, and after a while, he snored.
Fang Wei vaguely felt that something was moving on his body, opened his eyes slightly, and saw that the nurse was covering him with a blanket, and the nurse saw that Fang Wei was awake, and said apologetically; "I'm really sorry to wake you up, I saw you fall asleep just now, I'm afraid that you will catch a cold again, and the condition will worsen, so I'll bring you a blanket to cover it."
Fang Wei heard the nurse speak, woke up completely, moved his body, wrapped the blanket tightly, looked at the nurse, and said; "Thank you."
The nurse said; "You're welcome, this is my job, what I should do, taking care of the sick is our duty."
The nurse glanced at the bottle, and said that the potion was more than halfway down; "There is not much liquid left, in ten minutes, I will pull out the needle for you."
After the infusion was over, Fang Wei slowed down for a while, slowly stood up with his chair, and tried to take a few steps forward, feeling better than when he came. Fang Wei expressed his gratitude to the doctor, turned around to leave, and was immediately stopped by the doctor, suggesting a few more infusions, hospitalization for a few days, and a thorough examination of his body to see if there were any other problems. At the doctor's stern insistence, Fang Wei had no choice but to agree to be hospitalized.
Fang Wei was admitted to the hospital, and Xiaoli didn't know at all. was still worried about Fang Wei's small business, called everywhere, took two days to find a few people with good relationships, and it didn't take much effort to get things done.
Xiaoli bought 500 electronic watches according to Fang Wei's idea, and Xiaoli planned to let Fang Wei test the water temperature first to see how much he could sell and how big the sales would be, and then let Fang Wei decide what to do next.
After Xiaoli got things done, she came directly to Fang Wei after work, and wanted to surprise him with confidence. She came to Fang Wei's residence and knocked on the door for a long time, but no one responded, Xiaoli reluctantly sat in the car and waited for Fang Wei to come back.
More than an hour passed, and she didn't see Fang Wei come back, Xiaoli felt a little hungry, walked to a nearby restaurant to eat casually, and returned to Fang Wei's residence, but she didn't see him come back, thinking to herself, it's so late, Fang Wei hasn't gone home yet, maybe he's working overtime, and it's useless to wait any longer, so I can only wait for tomorrow.
The next morning, Xiaoli called Fang Wei's work unit and learned that he had taken a week's sick leave. In just two days, Xiaoli didn't see Fang Wei, he got sick and was admitted to the hospital.
Xiaoli heard the news of Fang Wei's hospitalization, she didn't believe her ears at first, thinking that she had heard it wrong, she confirmed it again and again with Fang Wei's colleagues, he was indeed sick and hospitalized, Xiaoli was really a little anxious, hurriedly put down the phone, greeted her colleagues, and drove to Fang Wei's residence, still the same as yesterday, the door was still locked.
Xiaoli immediately drove to the city, looked for several hospitals one by one, but didn't find Fang Wei, she thought it was very strange, she obviously said that the person had been hospitalized, why couldn't she find it in the hospital? Where the hell did he go?
Xiaoli parked the car at the entrance of the city hospital, and the more she thought about it in the car, the more wrong she became, and she didn't know where to find Fang Wei, and she was so anxious that tears flowed out. Xiaoli couldn't have imagined that Fang Wei didn't go to the big hospital in the city at all, but a small hospital opened by a private person in the suburbs, no wonder Xiaoli couldn't find him.
Just when Xiaoli was busy looking for Fang Wei, Fang Wei was already lying on the bed in a private hospital, alone and suffering from the devastation of illness.
How fragile people are, Fang Wei's originally strong physique, in the face of disease, was as weak as a small grass, it was simply vulnerable.
Fang Wei's high fever does not go away, his body is extremely weak, the whole person is groggy, he has no strength at all, his appetite is not good, he can't eat, he is 1.82 meters tall, and after a few days, his weight has dropped a lot, and he seems to have lost a lot of weight, and his body is about to deform.
Fang Wei continued to infuse fluids for several days, and the high fever finally came down, his body had some strength, and he got out of bed and walked more steadily. The doctor gave Fang Wei a comprehensive physical examination and found no other problems, so Fang Wei felt a little relieved.
Fang Wei has been lying on the hospital bed, lying really uncomfortable, with the doctor's consent, he can go to the yard every day, move for a few hours, bask in the sun, and breathe fresh air.
Seeing that Fang Wei was unaccompanied and alone, the nurse felt that he was strange and pitiful, and took the initiative to tell Fang Wei that if she needed to buy something, she could ask her for help.
The ward where Fang Wei lived was a large room, with seven or eight patients, and in addition to Fang Wei, there were family members who accompanied the bed. Every day, relatives and friends bring things to see the patients, some of them have children, they talk loudly, and the wards are noisy and noisy.
Most of the patients Fang Wei lived with were locals who spoke the local dialect, and Fang Wei couldn't understand a word, so it was difficult to communicate with them, so he could only sleep on the hospital bed boringly.
The patient had nothing else to do except injections and medicines, and all he did was eat and sleep all day long. After sleeping enough during the day, and no sleepiness at night, the clinics talked to each other, walked around the ward, and the voice of the conversation felt louder than during the day, which made Fang Wei upset and difficult to sleep.
There are several plastic basins in the corner of the ward, which can be used by patients, including family members accompanying the bed, which are dirty and unhygienic. The toiletries used by the patients were brought from home.
When Fang Wei came to the hospital for treatment, he didn't expect to be hospitalized, so he didn't bring washing utensils and washbasins, and he had to wash his face and brush his teeth every day.
Nurse Li is also from other provinces, has been in Lingnan for many years, and knows that it is not easy to go out, and she has to rely on herself for everything, she understands Fang Wei's difficulties. Hospitalized patients have a bad appetite and are very picky about eating, and the meals in the hospital are clear soup and watery, and there is no nutrition.
Nurse Li helped Fang Wei from time to time, bought some delicious meals outside, and took time to talk to him and talk about some parents. may be because both of them are northerners, and she cares more about Fang Wei.
While the two were chatting, Fang Wei learned that the nurse's name was Li Qianqian, who was from a northwestern province. She used to work in her hometown hospital, but because the hospital was not efficient, she quit her job and came to Lingnan City with a few fellow villagers.
When Li Qianqian first came, her job search was not smooth, she suffered a lot, and she also worked odd jobs for a while. By chance, she was hired by this hospital and has been working for two years.
Li Qianqian has a long figure, looks very smart, has a round face, and always has two dimples when she smiles, which gives a very good impression. He speaks crisply and neatly, is very proficient in business, administers injections and hangs water in an orderly manner, and takes care of patients patiently and meticulously. There are also a few patients who are short-tempered and unreasonable, and she never quarrels with them, but always laughs them off.
During Li Qianqian and Fang Wei's chat, they learned that the two of them have something in common, they are both for life, they left their hometown to work in the south, they have similar experiences, and they are both northerners, they can be regarded as half a fellow countryman, and Fang Wei has a little more closeness.
Although the dialects of the two are different, they can basically understand each other's words, there is no obstacle to communication, and the communication is still spoken, which is much more natural and smooth.
After Fang Wei was hospitalized, his mood was extremely low, worried about his mother's deterioration, and he thought crankily all day long, like an invisible haze, hanging over his face all day long.
Li Qianqian has worked in the hospital for many years, she is very good at observing words and feelings, can find out the psychological activities of patients, and has also met different patient numbers, even if she has seen a little bit of the world, she has seen a lot of depressed people like Fang Wei, and she understands their feelings.
Li Qianqian persuaded Fang Wei from time to time, no matter how big the family is, don't deliberately think about it and look away. No matter how difficult it is, the main thing is to cure one's illness first. If your body collapses, let alone help your family, on the other hand, your relatives in your hometown will have to worry about you, and the two ends are worried about each other, isn't this even worse?
Fang Wei understood that what Li Qianqian said was reasonable, and he just couldn't get over this hurdle in his heart, as Li Qianqian chatted with Fang Wei more often, he slowly thought about it, and his brain turned around.
Whenever Fang Wei was impatient, he would go outside the ward or chat with patients to relieve his boredom.
Fang Wei basks in the sun outside on time every day, and can always see a few low bungalows on the west side of the hospital, surrounded by dense roses, creepers and iron ferns, commonly known as iron singles. The roof was rusty, the chimney was half-crooked, the steps were grassy, and the plaster on the walls had peeled off, as if it were crumbling.
The front of the house was facing the hospital, with its back facing the field, and between the hut and the field, separated by a gray courtyard wall. The rusty nails facing the fence wall have a special feeling of despair and sin, which can only be found in hospital and prison houses.
The contrast between the old house and the newly built inpatient building is just like Fang Wei's anxious state of mind at the moment, and it is a great irony that his weak body is so similar to the healthy body and cheerful personality that he should have.
After a week of treatment and careful care, Fang Wei's condition was under control, his body was almost recovered, and he asked to be discharged from the hospital. After the doctor gave Fang Wei a re-examination, he agreed to discharge him from the hospital and suggested; When you get home, you can take the medicine orally for a few more days to consolidate the effect of the treatment.
When Fang Wei was about to be discharged from the hospital, he thought that there were a lot of things to pay attention to when patients left the hospital in his hometown, and the things used during the hospitalization were not easy to take home, and those that could be used were thrown away, and the things that could be used were given away or left to the patients.
After Fang Wei got sick, he saved a lot of troubles and understood a lot of life philosophy, doing things is like curing diseases, there has to be a process, it needs to be gradual, it is impossible to eat a big fat man in one bite.
In fact, Fang Wei understood these truths before, because he was busy all day long, running around for life, and he didn't have time to calm down and think about it.
Recently, a lot of troubles have been mixed together, Fang Wei has never been able to figure it out, he has lost his sense of proportion, and he has no idea, which is the most common mistake that ordinary people make.
When Fang Wei was discharged from the hospital, he bought a gift for Li Qianqian and thanked her for taking care of herself, which is also human nature. When leaving, Fang Wei said a lot of kind words, and he clearly sued Li Qianqian; If you need help in the future, don't be polite, you can go directly to him, or call, and he will definitely do his best to help.
Fang Wei was hospitalized for seven days, as if he was in another world, he walked on the street, feeling that everything outside was fresh; The road under my feet has become longer, the surrounding trees have grown taller, and the people are kind. In a word, everything is changing, and it is becoming very fast, so kind, so beautiful.
A few small grasses grew through the cracks of the stone wall on the side of the road, attracting Fang Wei's attention, he approached and squatted down, carefully observed, and gently stroked the leaves of the grass with his hands, like caressing the delicate skin of a newborn baby, caressing the future and hope.
The weak and firm grass struggled to grow upwards in the cracks of the stones, and a strong wind blew, and the leaves of the grass swayed slightly a few times, and then returned to their original state.
Fang Wei stroked his unkempt hair with his hand, and sighed in his heart; It's incredible that grass can take root and grow here in extreme environments, showing how tenacious it is, and that's probably true of life.
Fang Wei stood up, turned around and walked forward, just a few steps, then stood down again, as if he had lost something, looked back, and saw the grass in the crack of the stone, swaying the tender green leaves, as if beckoning to him.
Fang Wei stared intently for a moment, with a knowing smile on his face, feeling that his soul had been free from his body, enjoying the beautiful scenery of the world in the sky. Fang Wei's body wrapped in stinky skin has overcome the disease, and he is not the self who once lost his direction.
The sun climbed higher and higher, and the shadows of the buildings became shorter. A few white clouds floated in the blue sky, like a few white sails cruising in the sea, heading to the other side of the sea.
The birds in the trees flapped their wings, jumping from branch to branch, chirping in a row, as loud and high-pitched as a chorus, as if in a procession to welcome Fang Wei's return.
Fang Wei was hospitalized for a week, as if he was imprisoned in prison, imprisoning his body and his mind. Fang Wei thought as he walked, with such a sunny and refreshing weather, if he didn't appreciate its beautiful scenery, wouldn't he live up to the gift of nature.
Fang Wei walked to the side of the road and enjoyed the busy street scene for a while, he quickly made a decision, stopped a taxi, quickly got into it, and let the driver drive straight to the suburbs.
The taxi quickly drove out of the city, with a vast field in front and a small mud house in the village on the left, the sun had risen very high, and the hot and dazzling sunlight shone on the fields and the people who toiled.
The rice has been harvested, and some green and shaggy grass can be seen, and the ground is full of rice stubble and dry and hard rice roots. In the harvested fields, flocks of pigeons and other birds peck at them.
Around the village and by the pond there are many trees, mostly mango trees, with cattle tethered in the shade, and a few peasants sleeping in small beds. Not far away is a dense wood, and in some fields ripe crops have not yet been harvested.
The taxi drove slowly on a potholed dirt road on the edge of the village and stopped next to a field. Fang Wei opened the car window and looked out, and saw a vegetable field, planted with cucumbers, melon vines wrapped around the bamboo frame, desperately climbing up, above it was the bright sun, the blue sky, and the free wind.
The breeze gently swept through the cucumber shed, blowing a slightly bitter fragrance through the car window, and smelling Fang Wei's heart was clear and very comfortable.
After a moment of silence, Fang Wei beckoned the driver to drive forward, through the woods to the beach, the dazzling sunlight made him stunnedββββ the light reflected from the silver-white sand was too dazzling, he didn't dare to move for a while.
After a while, I saw the sea shining at the end of the white sand. With his eyes squinted and his feet on the sand, he walked towards the sea. The soft sand, although you feel it when you step on the sand, you can't hear your own footsteps.
At this time, in front of Fang Wei, a row of white waves came to him and retreated not far from him, and behind the waves, there were rows of endless waves, crowded towards him.
Fang Wei retreated to a place where the sea could not reach, lying straight on the beach, letting the sun bask and the sea breeze blowing, Fang Wei's heart was completely relieved, and there was an indescribable joy after relief in his heart,
