1965, Yuquan First People's Hospital.
Outside the delivery room, I heard screams of pain coming from inside. Gu Xian still couldn't hold back the anxiety in his heart. He couldn't help but look into the delivery room, anxiously pacing around in circles.
"Okay." He Chunlan couldn't hold it back anymore.
"Don't dawdle around, it makes me upset. Don't worry, your wife will be fine."
Li Yuzhu and Jiang Mengzhi, who were also anxious next to them, temporarily suppressed their emotions and advised:
"Yes, Xiaoxian, everything is fine now."
Gu Xian stopped now, but couldn't help but look at the delivery room frequently.
I don’t know how long it took, but suddenly there was a cry in the delivery room.
Gu Xian suddenly became more nervous, and Li Yuzhu and Jiang Mengzhi rushed to the door even more excitedly.
He Chunlan smiled happily.
“After giving birth, I still don’t know if it’s a boy or a girl?”
As soon as the nurse walked out of the delivery room with the baby in her arms, Gu Xian rushed forward.
"Comrade, how are the conditions of the pregnant women inside? Is there any problem?"
The nurse was startled and said angrily:
"The mother inside is fine. Be careful next time. It was so scary that I almost dropped the baby."
Gu Xian breathed a sigh of relief and smiled sheepishly.
When Li Yuzhu and Jiang Mengzhi heard this, they finally let go of what they had been worrying about.
Only then did He Chunlan intervene.
"Sister, is my daughter-in-law giving birth to a boy or a girl?"
The nurse smiled and handed the child over, and Aunt He hurriedly reached out to take it.
The nurse then replied:
"It's a girl. Congratulations."
No one else had any idea about this. He Chunlan was a little disappointed, but she didn't say anything.
Only then did Gu Xian think of the child. He looked close to the baby and saw a baby with closed eyes and clenched fists. His heart felt soft.
Li Yuzhu and Jiang Mengzhi also watched around the baby.
"Lao Li, look, this child's nose looks exactly like Zizi's. He also has these eyebrows and these eyes." Jiang Mengzhi looked at the swaddled baby and said.
Li Yuzhu also looked at his granddaughter and nodded repeatedly:
"Yes, she is exactly the same as our Zizi."
He Chunlan didn't say anything, she just smiled and handed the child to Gu Xian.
"Here, please give her a hug."
Gu Xian was a little helpless and hugged her, not daring to use any force.
Not long after, the door to the delivery room opened again and the doctor came out.
"Which of you is a family member?"
Gu Xian quickly replied:
"I am, I am her husband. Is my wife okay now?"
The doctor looked at Gu Xian, writing something on the medical record, and replied:
"The mother inside has no major problems, but she needs more rest and nutrition in the near future. If possible, it is best to stay in the hospital for two more days to see if there will be any problems later."
Gu Xian said hurriedly:
"Then we will stay for two more days. Comrade, please help us open a hospital bill. It is better to stay for a few days, so we will stay for a few days."
The doctor just gave him the usual instructions. Hearing this, he looked up at him in surprise and thought:
It is also rare for a husband to be willing to spend money to allow a mother to stay in the hospital for a few more days. Strange.
Thinking about this, he said:
"Do you need me to prescribe some more nutritional supplements for you?"
Gu Xian nodded repeatedly.
"I want it, thank you very much, comrade."
The doctor handed the list to Gu Xian:
"Okay, let the nurse take you to pay. The mother is resting now, you can go and see her. But keep your voice down. By the way, don't forget to feed the baby for a while."
Gu Xian took the order and handed it to He Chunlan.
"Mom, this is 100 yuan. You can take it to pay the fee first. I'll take the kids to see Zizi."
With that said, he took out 100 yuan from his trouser pocket and handed it to He Chunlan.
He Chunlan took the money and nodded.
"Okay, I'll go. You go see your wife."
Gu Xian carried the child into the ward, followed closely by Li Yuzhu and Jiang Mengzhi, while Li Zi was still sleeping in the ward.
Gu Xian put the child aside and saw that the child was sleeping soundly with his eyes closed. He couldn't hold back and gently poked her little face, his eyebrows softened.
Gu Xian sat on the edge of the bed, quietly looking at the large and small children sleeping on the bed. There was tenderness flowing in the room.
Seeing this, Jiang Mengzhi gently pulled Li Yuzhu's clothes and gave him a look. The two quietly left the ward, leaving space for the family.
Gu Xian was focused on Li Zi, so he didn't notice the departure of Li Yuzhu and Jiang Mengzhi.
Thinking that the doctor had just said to breastfeed the child, Gu Xian glanced at his sleeping wife and hesitated.
I thought to myself, "The child doesn't look hungry yet, so why not let Zizi continue to sleep."
On the other side, He Chunlan was paying the fee.
The nurse took the bill.
"The total is 21 yuan and 8 cents."
"Ah, why is it so expensive?"
He Chunlan couldn't hold it back and exclaimed.
The nurse glanced at her and answered as usual.
"That's the price. The doctor gave you a can of malted milk for five yuan. A pound of brown sugar for one piece. The cost of the surgery you just gave birth to was 9 yuan and 8 cents. You have to stay in the hospital for three days, two yuan a day. It's just right 21 yuan and 8 cents.”
He Chunlan's eyes widened.
"The malted milk from the supply and marketing cooperative only costs 3 yuan a can, and brown sugar only costs cents per pound. Why is the hospital so expensive? Also, why are hospitalization fees so expensive?"
The nurse couldn't help it.
"Auntie, don't even think about it. The malted milk and brown sugar from the supply and marketing cooperative require a ticket, and you may not be able to buy them. As for the hospitalization expenses, it includes some basic examinations and nutritious meals. The price is very reasonable. "
How did Aunt Gu know that these things were so expensive? After all, her son had paid for them before.
But she still gritted her teeth and paid.
After paying the money, I turned around and went to the hospital cafeteria with the remaining 78 yuan and 2 cents in my pocket. It was already getting late, and there wasn't much food in the hospital cafeteria, only some porridge and steamed buns.
Steamed buns are a dime each, no tickets required. A bowl of porridge costs five cents, no tickets required. Millet porridge is a bit more expensive, costing ten cents plus half a tael of food stamps.
He Chunlan first bought four steamed buns and four bowls of white porridge. After hesitating between millet porridge and white porridge, I bought a bowl of millet porridge.
Back in the ward, Aunt He first gave two steamed buns and two bowls of porridge to Li Yuzhu and Jiang Mengzhi, then gave one steamed bun and one bowl of porridge to Gu Xian, and kept the last steamed buns and porridge for herself.
"Fourth, I haven't eaten for almost a day. There are steamed buns in the lunch box. You can eat the porridge in the enamel jar. I also bought a bowl of millet porridge for your wife. It's too late now and there's nothing to eat in the cafeteria. Sell it, let’s make do with it for now.”
Only then did Gu Xian feel relieved.
"Mom, you are so considerate. Thank you, otherwise I would have forgotten about this."
He Chunlan smiled and said:
"It's okay, why are you being polite to my mother?"
Gu Xian took a steamed bun from the lunch box and wolfed down the steamed bun and the porridge.
Aunt He looked a little distressed and said hurriedly:
"Eat slowly, there's not enough for Mom. There's still more here. Come on, give me half of Mom's steamed buns."
Gu Xian hurriedly swallowed the bun in his mouth and waved his hands repeatedly.
"That's enough, that's enough, mother, just keep your old share for yourself."
He Chunlan felt a little relieved.
While the mother and son were talking, the child lying on the bed suddenly started crying.
Gu Xian hurried over and hurriedly coaxed the child. But it was of no use, the child cried louder.
Seeing this, He Chunlan hurriedly took the child and looked at it.
"You must be hungry. Didn't you ask your wife to breastfeed the baby?"
Gu Xian shook his head.
"No, I saw that Zizi was sleeping very deeply. I thought that she was tired today, and the baby was also asleep and didn't seem hungry, so I didn't let Zizi get up to breastfeed."
Before He Chunlan could blame him, a voice came out.
"Give me the child."
Li Zi raised her body with her hands and half leaned on the head of the bed.
Seeing this, Gu Xian quickly ran to help.
"Zi Zi, why did you wake up so quickly?"
"I just woke up not long ago. Come on, give me the baby and I'll breastfeed her."
Gigi Lai said and stretched out her hand towards He Chunlan.
He Chunlan handed the child over.
Gigi Gigi immediately opened her clothes, and the child subconsciously sucked. When she couldn't suck at first, she became anxious and worked harder.
"hiss."
Gigi Lai couldn't hold it back and let out a cry of pain.
Fortunately, everything went smoothly, and the baby quickly sucked sweet milk.
After eating and drinking enough, the child fell asleep.
Gigi Gigi looked at the child in her arms, her eyebrows softened, and her heart softened.
She hugged the child and then looked at Gu Xian.
"Have you decided on the child's name? Should it be the one we chose before, or should we rename it?"
Gu Xian thought for a while and said:
"Let's use the one we picked up before, and call it Gu Ning. I hope she can have a safe and smooth life, and have a peaceful life. She will not be affected by the disturbances of the outside world, and she will have a peaceful life."
Gigi Lai nodded.
"Okay, that's settled then. Remember to go to the Public Security Bureau to register your child another day."
Gu Xian nodded in agreement.
Gigi Gigi glanced at the sky outside the window.
"Okay, it's getting late. Go back and rest quickly. You'll go to work tomorrow. Everything is fine with me, so you don't need to worry."
Gu Xian hesitated.
He Chunlan on the side saw this and said hurriedly:
"Yes, yes, fourth child, you go back and rest quickly. You will go to work tomorrow. I will take care of your wife, so you don't have to worry about it. You must know that the birth of a child will cost more money, so you need to take an extra day off. Just one more day’s payment will be deducted.”
Gu Xian thought for a while.
"Okay, then I'll go back first and you guys have a good rest."
