Walking out of the hospital, there were only a few dim lights along the road due to its remote location.
She searched for several shops and finally found one where she could buy food.
Actually, opening a restaurant near a hospital is quite risky. Once people entered the hospital, all their money would be spent on saving lives, and they wouldn’t be willing to spend any more on buying food. For these people, even if they were hungry, they would not come to a restaurant. As a result, the business would suffer.
When Fu Yuling arrived, the boss was in the process of packing up. When she saw him, she stopped him and asked, “Boss, are you still selling?”
Seeing that it was a young girl dressed in ordinary clothes with a fair face, the boss responded.
“How much do you want?”
Fu Yuling is actually in a hurry now. She doesn’t know if He Wen, He Xuan, and He An at home have eaten yet. But even if she buys the food now, it will become cold and lose its taste by the time she brings it back.
“Three servings of rice, three dishes, and a soup. More rice, please.”
“Wait a moment.”
The boss took out the ingredients again. Fortunately, they were already prepared, so the cooking process was quick.
Carrying the freshly cooked food, Fu Yuling hurried back to the hospital.
When she returned to the ward, Father Fu had already woken up, and Fu Qi was accompanying him.
Seeing her enter, both of them focused their eyes on her.
“Dad, how are you feeling?”
Father Fu looked at her with a smile on his honest face. “Nothing serious.”
“That’s good. If there’s anything wrong, we would be worried.”
While talking, Fu Yuling took out the food. Fu Qi’s eyes flickered when they fell upon the food.
“Fu Qi, come over and bring the food to Dad.”
Being suddenly called, it interrupted Fu Qi’s train of thought.
“Coming.”
After arranging everything, Fu Yuling called Fu Qi out.
Fu Qi was much taller than Fu Yuling. When they stand together, Fu Qi looks more like an older brother.
She grabbed Fu Qi’s hand and put fifty yuan on top of it.
“There are still a few at home. I’m worried. With you and Mom taking care of Dad, I feel relieved. Take this money and buy some nutritional supplements or spare ribs for Dad to help him recover quickly.”
Fu Qi felt the paper money in his hand suddenly become hot. “I can’t take your money.”
“I’m not giving it to you. I’m giving it to Dad.”
Fu Yuling’s tone was a little heavy. She understood Fu Qi’s mindset, but that didn’t mean she would allow him to continue thinking that way.
“You go back. I’m leaving first.”
After saying that, she greeted her father and left.
Fu Qi stayed outside for a long time. He was thinking about a lot of things and was even more silent than usual.
As soon as he entered the room, he met his father’s eyes and saw the fatigue on his face that was filled with the vicissitudes of life.
“Did your sister leave?”
“Yes.”
After this exchange, neither of them spoke.
“How much did it cost to see the doctor?”
This question was difficult for Father Fu to ask, making him feel embarrassed.
Coincidentally, Mother Fu returned at this moment and heard this sentence.
She exclaimed in a loud voice, “It’s already this late, and you still care about that? It’s already good enough that you’re alive.”
“You really don’t give people peace of mind. Your foot got injured, but you didn’t say anything and endured it to continue working. Now look what happened! Did you enjoy the fall?”
A long string of ‘attacks’ came, and her voice filled the entire ward.
The person sleeping next to them was awakened by the noise and endured it for a while before speaking up, “Can you please be quiet? This is a hospital ward.”
“What’s it to you? Did I scold you? You just love to meddle in other people’s business.”
After saying this, Mother Fu’s face didn’t look good, but she also stopped.
Fu Qi took the opportunity to walk over and hand her a bowl. “Mom, please eat first. Dad is still a patient, so let’s speak less.”
