"Uncle, don't worry. I'm young and strong with a good immune system. Besides, there are doctors here watching over me all day. Everything is done according to the rules, so there won't be any problems."
Fu Jingyou stayed by Lu Miao's side during the day, but the hospital arranged a private room for him to rest at night.
He wasn't lying when he said he was acting in accordance with the hospital's strict controls.
The reason I lingered for so long before coming downstairs was because I was upstairs helping the nurses with the disinfection work inside and out.
Although they didn't have close contact with He Hongjin and Lu Yuanzheng through the window, it was a precaution.
Any possibility of transmission must be nipped in the bud.
“Uncle, Miaomiao and I are both fine. You can stay in Beijing for a few days and then go back. When you get back, tell Auntie not to worry... You're not young anymore, so don't travel such a long distance anymore. Wait until Miaomiao is almost fully recovered in another month or so, and then we'll find time to go back and see you.”
It doesn't seem right to talk face-to-face but only through a window.
But when faced with such an absurd situation, He Hongjin felt as if his throat was choked up as he listened to Fu Jingyou's words, unable to utter a single word.
With only his thick eyebrows furrowed, his old eyes gazed worriedly and with a sense of vicissitude at the person inside the window.
Fu Jingyou said, "Let's go back, Uncle. Miaomiao should be awake by now."
He Hongjin wiped his face.
He was worried about the people inside, but also concerned about distracting them, so he suppressed his worries, looked away, and nodded a few times.
"Then you should take good care of it and cherish yourself as well."
"Ah."
He Hongjin put his hands behind his back and walked back with a slight hunch.
Fu Jingyou stared for a while, only turning his gaze away when He Hongjin stepped out of the window's view.
But as soon as he turned his gaze back, he met his father-in-law's eyes again.
The father-in-law probably knew that his uncle hadn't seen him for a long time and was very worried about him.
So I just accompanied them the whole time and didn't interrupt.
But now that he was leaving, he lowered his brows and looked at him hesitantly, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.
Knowing he must be worried too, Fu Jingyou smiled and reassured him:
"Dad, don't worry, I can keep Miao Miao in check. She has indeed been much better lately."
Lu Yuanzheng visibly breathed a sigh of relief, nodded his chin, and said calmly and steadily:
"If you need anything, just call home and let us know. We'll head back now."
"it is good."
Lu Yuanzheng didn't say anything more, and strode in to follow He Hong, who was waiting ahead.
Fu Jingyou paused briefly at the window inside the room.
Once he guessed that they had gotten into the car and headed back, Fu Jingyou turned around and went upstairs.
Although Lu Yuanzheng and He Hongjin had been stuck at the door for a long time, the insulated containers they brought were delivered upstairs by the junior staff member early in the morning.
When Fu Jingyou returned to the ward, a small table had already been set up in front of the bed.
Two nurses are feeding Lu Miao.
Seeing him return, Lu Miao turned her head and slowed down her eating pace:
"We have guests at home? I heard from them that Dad brought some unfamiliar faces today."
Fu Jingyou smiled warmly and nodded, gently brushing the loose strands of hair that fell behind her ears.
"It's Uncle."
"uncle?"
"Yes, I've been busy lately and forgot to let my family back home know. They didn't know what was going on here, so they came to check on us."
Lu Miao fell silent for a moment upon hearing this, and after a long while, he murmured:
"I've worried them." I came here hoping for peace of mind, but now that I know she has this illness, I'm afraid they'll be even more uneasy...
Lu Miao felt uneasy just thinking about it.
Then, putting down the small spoon used to scoop the white fungus porridge, she lost her appetite.
Fu Jingyou didn't give her time to think, picked up the small bowl, and then used the spoon she had set aside to feed her:
"We've made them worry, so we need to listen carefully to the doctor's advice and try to recover as soon as possible to go back and visit them."
Lu Miao's eyes reddened with guilt as she turned to look at him.
He brought the spoon close to her lips, smiled tenderly, and opened his mouth wide, saying:
"what."
Lu Miao couldn't help but laugh at the way he treated her like a child.
She chuckled twice and reached out her hand to Fu Jingyou:
"I'll do it myself, otherwise it'll be scattered everywhere."
"Okay, you do it yourself."
Fu Jingyou carefully handed the items to her, and only let go of them after she had a firm grip on them.
Just as Fu Jingyou told Lu Yuanzheng, he was able to coax Lu Miao.
When Lu Miao eats alone, he usually only takes a couple of bites, like a kitten licking its food, and then stops eating.
Each time they eat, the amount is only about the size of a meatball.
With him by her side, Lu Miao was able to eat quite a bit more while chatting and talking.
The doctors and nurses had already reached a consensus. As soon as they saw Lu Miao pick up the spoon again, someone immediately brought over Fu Jingyou's thermos and a chair to serve as a small table.
Fu Jingyou took the items and unscrewed the lid of the insulated container almost as a matter of course.
At the hospital, the young couple's daily life proceeded smoothly with the assistance of the nurses.
Meanwhile, He Hongjin and Lu Yuanzheng returned home, and as soon as they entered the house, He Hongjin said he wanted to go back:
“My dear in-laws, I’ve seen the children’s situation. We’ll wait for his second brother to come back later, then we’ll go to the station to buy tickets and go home.”
"Going back already? No way! You haven't even had a chance to sit down properly, and you haven't even seen Xiao Fu's factory yet! No way!"
Lu Yuanzheng waved his hands repeatedly:
"I don't think this is urgent, you can stay a few more days!"
He Hongjin pulled Lu Yuanzheng aside and said with a smile:
“My dear in-laws, you and your mother have been working so hard with these two children. We don’t want to trouble you any further, but I’m not just being polite; we really do have work to do at home… We’ll head back now, and once things are less hectic, if the children are feeling better, we’ll have them come back to visit us…”
He Hongjin paused, then changed the subject:
"We'll talk about it then. We can come back after the busy farming season."
Farmers rely on a few acres of land for their livelihood.
Upon hearing He Hongjin's words, Lu Yuanzheng was at a loss for how to persuade him to stay.
Fortunately, as they entered the inner courtyard, Tang Mei greeted them with a warm smile:
"You're back? Sit down and rest! Xiao Fu just called and told Comrade He not to rush back! He told Xiang Dong to take this opportunity to bring his uncle to Tongrentang Hospital for a pulse check."
He Hongjin waved his hand upon hearing this, but before he could utter a word of refusal, Lu Yuanzheng preemptively pressed his hand down, saying:
"Xiao Fu's arrangement is quite appropriate, elder brother, you can't refuse! We always tell the children to be careful in everything and not to worry the family, but conversely, we can't let the children worry either, right? Why don't you stay one more day! Get a good check-up tomorrow, so the children can rest assured."
Just like farmers who rely on the heavens and the earth for their livelihood, Lu Yuanzheng couldn't persuade He Hongjin to stay too much.
When he brought up the children's concern for He Hongjin's health, He Hongjin also found it difficult to refuse.
He Hongjin rubbed his head and had no choice but to concede:
"Well, alright then! Well then, mother-in-law, I'll bother you for one more day!"
"Oh, you can't say things like that!" (End of Chapter)
