That night, Xue Han kept having nightmares and crying from time to time.
Xue Ling stayed by the bed, holding her hand to comfort her, and occasionally holding her to coax her to sleep. It wasn't until the sky got slightly brighter that Xiaohan fell into a deep sleep.
In the middle of the night, Cheng Tianyuan was "caught" by his eldest son and took him home.
Xue Heng, on the other hand, suffered from back pain all the time and tossed and turned on the bench outside the door.
Whenever his daughter cries, he immediately comes in to help comfort her.
Xiaohan slept soundly, but he hardly closed his eyes all night.
Xue Ling saw that his expression was extremely bad, so he took out his mobile phone and checked the time, and found that it was already about five o'clock in the morning.
She quickly walked to the nurse's station and asked the nurse for two sets of thin quilts.
"A Heng, get up."
Xue Heng's eyes were blurred and he asked: "What's wrong?"
Despite asking questions, he still stood up obediently.
Xue Ling took a thin quilt and carefully draped it on the bench, then took out a pillow and placed it on one end.
"Sleeping like this will make your waist more comfortable."
Xue Heng felt extremely uncomfortable and still asked: "What about you? Why don't you take a nap?"
"No need." Xue Ling replied: "I had a nap at noon, and I was in good spirits. Xiaohan fell into a deep sleep, and I lay next to her and squinted for a while. You should go to sleep quickly. There are many people in the hospital at dawn, and they will definitely disturb you.
Wake up."
Xue Heng shook his head: "How about you sleep? The hospital beds are really tight. Fortunately, Ah Huan asked for it, otherwise we wouldn't have such a good single room. Unfortunately, there is only one hospital bed, and there is no place for the person who is accompanying the bed to sleep.
.”
"You sleep." Xue Ling frowned and scolded: "Young mother-in-law!"
Xue Heng smiled helplessly, lay down, and twisted his waist in discomfort.
"...I feel much more comfortable. I just felt like my waist wasn't mine!"
Xue Ling sighed: "Remember to find a massage machine when you go back. Otherwise, tell Uncle Zhilan and ask him to take your pulse and prescribe some medicine."
"It's not that serious." Xue Heng glanced at her and said, "I'll just - give it a try, I'll be fine tomorrow."
Xue Ling sneered: "Don't deceive yourself. There are so many doctors in your family, and all of them hide their illnesses. How do you think you have the face to say such a thing?"
"...Let me ask Ah Huan." Xue Heng begged in a low voice: "Don't let my dad know, otherwise I will have to be scolded by him a few times."
Xue Ling asked funnyly: "Are you still afraid of your father scolding you? How old are you?"
"The fear of dad has nothing to do with how old you are." Xue Heng said aggrievedly: "Aren't you also afraid of your uncle and aunt? This is the fine tradition of our old Xue family, isn't it?"
Xue Ling couldn't help laughing and covered him with a thin quilt.
"Go to sleep, you are no longer poor."
Xue Heng was really exhausted. After his waist became more comfortable, he fell asleep in less than three minutes.
Xue Ling returned to the ward, looking at Xiaohan who was finally sleeping peacefully on the hospital bed, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, the sound of deliberately gentle footsteps came from outside.
Cheng Huanran poked his head in and shouted: "Mom~"
Xue Ling made a shushing gesture, walked out gently, and pulled his son to the corner.
"your get off work is done?"
Cheng Huanran replied in a low voice: "My colleague came to replace the shift early, so I got off. I have a rest today and will have my shift tomorrow morning."
Xue Ling couldn't help but ask: "The driver took your dad home last night? Didn't it delay your work?"
"No." Cheng Huanran explained: "Dad stayed in my department for a few minutes. The driver came up to pick him up and then he left."
Xue Ling heard a burst of laughter and asked: "What happened after staying for a few minutes? He suddenly became curious about where you work?"
"Really." Cheng Huanran suppressed a laugh: "He saw two skulls in my department and asked me if my female colleagues wouldn't be scared if they saw them in the middle of the night? It made me and several colleagues laugh so much. But he still said
He looked so serious that his colleagues thought he was joking and praised him for being so funny."
Xue Ling chuckled.
Cheng Huanran asked with concern: "Is Xiaohan feeling better? Did he sleep soundly?"
"I cried several times earlier." Xue Ling whispered helplessly: "The doctor said to take it slow and not to use too much sedatives. The doctor also said that it would be better to stay in the hospital for the next two days."
Cheng Huanran reminded: "The key is to have family members accompany her and comfort her."
"Aren't we all here?"
, I will be able to take a long vacation next, it is said that I can have a one-year long vacation."
"That's great." Cheng Huanran said: "Xiaohan needs the company of her parents very much now. Auntie's long vacation comes at the right time!"
Xue Ling looked at him with complicated eyes and whispered: "Your aunt doesn't know about this yet... I'm afraid that if she can't bear her emotions, it will be bad if there is an accident on the road."
She had contacted Cheng Tianfang earlier and asked her how busy she was lately and when she would be back.
Cheng Tianfang's voice was very hoarse, and she said that she had worked overtime for two or three nights in a row and was rushing back from the remaining work.
Xue Ling asked her if she got angry from staying up late, and her voice was strange.
Cheng Tianfang smiled bitterly and kept saying that she stayed up too late and had a serious strep throat that didn't heal for more than ten days. She took some anti-inflammatory drugs, but unfortunately it didn't help, so she had to give up and wait until she returns to China tomorrow.
After hearing this, Cheng Huanran explained: "It's not as easy to see a doctor abroad as it is for us. It's okay. When my aunt arrives tomorrow, I'll take a look at her and prescribe some medicine for her."
"I advise her to have a good rest on the plane." Xue Ling said: "Buy a business class ticket and get a good night's sleep. When she comes, take care of your strep throat as soon as possible."
Cheng Huanran raised his chin slightly, signaling to Xue Heng who was sleeping in front of him.
"Uncle Heng's expression is very strange, and I can see that his waist strength is very weak. He has to lean on it after standing for a while, and he rubs and supports his waist from time to time. Something is obviously wrong. In the evening, Uncle Huan had dinner with me. He suspected that Uncle Heng's kidney
If there is a problem, let me take a nap this morning and then I have to take him for an ultrasound and a urine test in the afternoon."
Xue Ling frowned and asked: "...Ah Huan said that? Really?"
"Why did I lie to you?" Cheng Huanran asked back: "Mom, haven't you noticed that Uncle Heng's face has been ugly for the past six months? He also has a chronic backache - this is not a joke."
Xue Ling was secretly shocked and took a deep breath.
"Don't scare me! I can't help but be scared of your mother now!"
Cheng Huanran hurriedly supported her and smiled bitterly: "Mom, isn't it normal to treat a sick person? Don't worry, Uncle Huan is here! As long as he is here, Uncle Heng will take care of it and it will be fine."
Xue Ling sighed helplessly: "Your father was so angry that he almost had a serious heart attack. Xiaohan is still lying on the hospital bed, and your aunt cannot protect herself. If something happens to your uncle Heng at this time - I can't even imagine it anymore.
!”
"Mom, maybe Uncle Heng just has kidney deficiency. Don't worry, my good mother, don't think too much first." Cheng Huanran said: "We will check the results carefully in the afternoon. Or we can do it in the morning.
I'll go back to sleep in the afternoon."
"... Then in the morning." Xue Ling frowned and whispered, "He has to go back and rest in the afternoon."
