1970s: A hot-tempered wife who accompanied a soldier to the military compound and made a fortune.

Chapter 57 Vigil
Once the nurse left, he couldn't hold it in any longer. When his daughter asked him that question, he could only hum in response.

Liu Chuxue chuckled and said, "Humans eat grains, and there is a natural cycle of reincarnation. There's nothing to be embarrassed about. Let me help you up. I've already checked, and there's a wooden frame inside where you can sit and relieve yourself. You can make do with that for now."

She helped the person up and put them in a wheelchair. Since there was no one in the bathroom at night, it was convenient for Liu Chuxue. After putting the person down, she stepped outside and said, "I'll wait for you outside. Don't rush. Take your time. Call me when you're done. Don't push yourself."

Fortunately, Liu's father's other leg was only swollen, and he could stand for the time being. There was a wooden frame on the pit, which he could sit on.

With the wheelchair, Mr. Liu was less embarrassed, at least he didn't have to be carried around by his daughter anymore.

After all, there's not much room in the ward, and some family members are still sitting on chairs in the corridor outside. Even though they don't know each other, it would be quite awkward if that were the case.

Although his injured leg still aches slightly after surgery, his anxiety has finally subsided. Now that the cycle of urination and defecation has been resolved, Mr. Liu can finally get a good night's sleep.

After settling Liu's father in, Liu Chuxue did not stay in the ward, but instead took the rough porcelain bowl and headed to the boiler room on the first floor.

She first filled a bowl with half a bowl of boiling water, then went to a secluded spot at the back. After confirming it was safe, she entered the space directly.

When she went to wash the dishes that evening, she found an apple core in the sink and put it into her spatial storage when her mother wasn't looking.

It's already April, and fruit is a rare sight in the north, so her eyes lit up when she saw the fruit pit.

I've just been so busy that I haven't had time to plant it in the space yet.

After entering the space, I first went to the freshwater area to check on the fish, shrimp, and crabs that had been brought in.

It's strange, really. These freshwater species have never crossed the ocean. I really don't know how they manage to do it.
I took the fruit pits I had collected and went straight to the mountain behind the house. I took out the seeds from the pits, planted them one by one, watered them with some pond water, and waited for them to take root and sprout.

After finishing his business, thinking about going back to check on Liu's father, he left the space.

Fortunately, she went back, and her father, Liu, was actually fighting off sleepiness and waiting for her: "Dad, why aren't you asleep yet?" "I'm going to sleep now."

Chu Xue felt a warmth in her heart: "Since you're still awake, you can get up and drink some water to rinse your mouth. After you finish, you can get a good night's sleep."

Mr. Liu instinctively wanted to refuse, since he had been on an IV drip all afternoon and wasn't thirsty, and he didn't want to trouble his daughter again in the middle of the night.

But when his daughter said it was just like rinsing his mouth, he agreed.

They helped him sit up and held the bowl of water mixed with pool water to his lips.

Perhaps fearing he would need to get up at night, Mr. Liu did not drink much.

Chuxue didn't force him.

Whether it was because he drank water diluted with pond water or because he was truly exhausted after several days of turmoil, Liu's father fell asleep in no time.

This time, instead of going out to find a place to enter the space, Chuxue pushed her wheelchair to the wall and fell asleep sitting there.

The next day, Liu's mother arrived at the hospital before dawn. Seeing her daughter asleep in a wheelchair with her head tilted to one side, she quickly woke her up: "Xue, wake up. Take the keys and go back to the guesthouse to catch up on your sleep. I'll stay here and watch over your father."

Knowing that her mother had come over, Liu Chuxue knew she wouldn't go back, so she didn't argue, took the keys, and left the hospital.

Back at the guesthouse, she went straight into the space, where the time ratio between the outside and inside was four to one, perfect for catching up on sleep.

On the other side, Chen Weiping avoided his family to pick up Hu Liru, hitched a ride on a delivery truck from the textile factory's fleet, and headed to the city early in the morning.
