Chapter 135 My Name is Rooster
"Shuyun," Wang Xiuwen called out with a weary voice. Shuyun immediately stepped forward and called out, "Mom." Wang Xiuwen was very happy and responded. She took Shuyun's hand and said hesitantly, "You and Dajun must be good to each other. Dajun is a quiet boy. He has never liked to talk since he was little. He is very stubborn, but Mom can guarantee that he is absolutely honest and reliable. He is a responsible and dependable person. Couples will inevitably have disagreements in life, but you must communicate. You two must be good to each other."
Shu Yun held Wang Xiuwen's hand and said, "Mom, don't worry, Gu Jun and I are fine. Don't worry."
"Oh, oh, oh." Wang Xiuwen was very pleased.
"Pfft." A laugh came from the side. The nurse in the white uniform covered her mouth and laughed. When she saw that everyone was looking at her, she quickly straightened her expression. "Ahem, don't be offended. It's just that, ma'am, your surgery wasn't that serious. There's really no need to worry so much."
"Okay, okay," Wang Xiuwen said somewhat awkwardly.
It's no wonder the old lady was so surprised. She's been healthy since childhood, and when she has a headache or fever, she can usually get rid of it by picking some Chinese herbs. Apart from going to the health station when she gave birth, this is the first time in her life she's been to a big hospital like this, and she even has to have surgery. Just thinking about it makes her feel the pain.
However, the person was already lying on the hospital bed and was soon pushed into the operating table by the nurse.
Although everyone knows that the surgery is low-risk, the waiting time outside is still very difficult.
Gu Minsheng sat in the corridor outside the operating room. Seeing Shu Yun, who was also waiting with her pregnant belly, he couldn't help but advise her, "Shu Yun, you're pregnant now, don't overwork yourself. I'm here. You and Yuanyuan go home and wait for news."
Shu Yun shook her head. "Dad, I'm fine. I can't rest easy waiting at home. Let's stay here. Mom should be out soon."
As they were talking, the operating room door opened and the doctor came out. Everyone rushed over, asking, "Doctor, how did it go?"
The doctor pulled off his white mask and said to the relatives, "Everything went smoothly."
The hospital bed was wheeled out. Wang Xiuwen had her eyes closed, and Gu Minsheng quickly asked, "Why isn't she awake yet?"
"The anesthesia has been administered. Let's take her back to the ward. She should wake up in about an hour. Next, the incision will heal. After she wakes up, please tell her not to move around too much. There might be some pain after the anesthesia wears off, but that's normal. Please have family members help her if needed..."
The doctor explained the post-operative precautions to the group of people one by one.
Surgery is only one part of the treatment process; the patient's wound recovery is also very important, and the removed tumor material needs to be sent for testing...
In a two-person hospital room, Wang Xiuwen was lying on the bed by the window, while the bed near the door was currently empty. Gu Minsheng was worried that Shu Yun would be uncomfortable, so he asked Gu Yuanyuan to help Shu Yun sit on the empty bed to rest.
After a while, Wang Xiuwen blinked and woke up.
"Xiuwen, how is it?" Gu Minsheng asked with delight, and Shu Yun and Gu Yuanyuan also came over.
Wang Xiuwen blinked, her mouth agape as if she had something in it, making her words unclear. Gu Minsheng couldn't hear her, so he put his ear close to her mouth and asked, "What? Are you feeling unwell?"
All that could be heard was Wang Xiuwen muttering incoherently: "I won't look for a second spring, I won't look for a second marriage, I, I will look, hehehehe."
Shu Yun and Gu Yuanyuan looked at each other, not daring to look at their father's face. Had their mother finally spoken her mind?
Gu Minsheng stood up to save face, saying, "Your mother just woke up, and her mind isn't quite clear yet."
Shu Yun and Gu Yuanyuan were very obliging, echoing in unison, "Yes, yes."
Wang Xiuwen clearly hadn't finished talking, "I want to eat chicken, chicken, little hen, rooster..."
She kept rambling on and on. Gu Minsheng frowned. "Something's not right with her. I'll go find a doctor."
Shu Yun tried to call for help, but Wang Xiuwen was so engrossed in counting chickens that she completely ignored her.
Soon, Gu Minsheng arrived with a nurse. The nurse glanced at Wang Xiuwen's condition and asked loudly, "Auntie, do you remember your name?"
Wang Xiuwen's eyes twitched. "What's my name? I'm called the Rooster!"
The last three words were loud and clear, and Shu Yun was startled. She felt as if she could still hear the echo outside.
The nurse smiled and said, "Okay, you can call yourself Big Rooster."
Gu Minsheng asked worriedly, "What's wrong with her? How could surgery make someone stupid?"
Nurse: "Don't worry, some people experience confusion and incoherent speech for about ten minutes after being given anesthesia. It's nothing to worry about; you should recover in about half an hour."
"I see." The three of them breathed a sigh of relief.
The nurse looked at the patient on the bed imitating a rooster and tried hard to suppress her laughter. "However, this is the first time I've encountered a patient like this, 'Grandpa, no, Grandma.' It's related to individual constitution, anesthesia, and so on. It's not a serious problem."
The nurse left, and the three of them listened to Wang Xiuwen's ramblings for a good ten minutes. Shu Yun thought to herself that it was fortunate that their family was staying in this ward, otherwise they would definitely have become a laughing stock.
No! Shu Yun recalled the nurse's snickering expression as she covered her mouth before leaving, and it was hard not to suspect that she would share her mother's funny stories with other nurses as soon as she left.
Shu Yun's suspicions were correct. After regaining her senses, Wang Xiuwen denied Gu Yuanyuan's claim that she was talking nonsense, saying, "I have no recollection of it, it definitely wasn't me."
"Who will go change the rooster's dressing?" a nurse's voice came from outside.
“I’ll go,” another nurse replied.
Wang Xiuwen quieted down and watched as the nurse who had just responded walked in with the medicine bottle, saying, "Ma'am, time to change the dressing."
Shu Yun and Gu Yuanyuan sat to the side, covering their mouths to stifle their laughter. It was hard not to suspect that the nurse had just mentioned a rooster.
Wu Xiuwen's face flushed slightly. If her incision hadn't been still healing, she would have left right now. She couldn't have stayed in this hospital for even a moment longer.
However, the reality is that Wang Xiuwen has to stay in the hospital, Gu Minsheng stays to take care of her, and Gu Yuanyuan goes with Shu Yun to the family compound to help Shu Yun with housework.
Shu Yun went to work, and the elderly couple stayed at the hospital every day. They were allowed to take care of their own lunch, and in the evening, Shu Yun and Gu Yuanyuan would prepare dinner and eat together at the hospital.
After Shu Yun got off work, Gu Yuanyuan had already gone to the army canteen to get the food. "Sister-in-law, we won't go to the hospital to eat today. I've already prepared the food for Mom and Dad and sent it over. You can rest at home today."
Shu Yun thought for a moment and nodded. Then she said, "By the way, sister-in-law, I heard from Sister Tian next door that the army's supply truck will go to the city to make purchases tomorrow. Can I go to the city with you?"
Shu Yun nodded, "Of course you can. If you're going to the city, why don't you buy a big rooster? I'll make poached chicken for Mom to try. She needs to eat something good to nourish her body after the surgery."
Speaking of roosters, the two of them recalled the nonsense Wang Xiuwen had uttered. It seemed that Wang Xiuwen must really want to eat chicken. If they made poached chicken for her, she would definitely like it.
