Chapter 106: Hospitalization
"What's going on with your supply and marketing cooperative? We've been queuing for so long, and there's still no tofu or bean sprouts?"
"No tofu or bean sprouts, why didn't you say so yesterday!?"
"And you didn't change the small blackboard either! Call President Zhang out, what's going on day after day!?"
Customers queuing to buy vegetables at the Hongqi Supply and Marketing Cooperative made a scene.
Usually, they came to queue after seven o'clock, and they could buy tofu and bean sprouts when the door opened, but today the supply and marketing cooperative opened, and there was nothing.
Chen Yan was busy comforting everyone, but her voice was too small and was buried.
Zhang Jun looked schadenfreude outside the Hongqi Supply and Marketing Cooperative. He gave Jiang Meng a wink and left.
Jiang Meng hurried to call Zhang Dongfeng out. "Everyone is making a scene, what should we do, President Zhang?"
Everything was fine, Su Qingyue's processing factory had been cooperating stably recently, why would it suddenly not send tofu?
Zhang Dongfeng walked to the hall and dealt with the noisy crowd.
"Don't worry, everyone, we are also waiting for news."
Just as he finished speaking, he saw Xiang Jianming and several team leaders who made tofu appear, each carrying a basket of tofu and holding bean sprouts in their hands.
"President Zhang, I'm sorry. A mudslide occurred on the road from our village to the county town, and the road surface is being repaired. Now the bull cart can't pass, so today's tofu can only be sent by us on our backs."
Xiang Jianming's apology was loud.
The customers who were making trouble extinguished their fire one after another after hearing the ins and outs.
"So the road is broken, that's understandable."
"Look at them, their clothes are all soaked with sweat, and it's not easy to carry tofu from so far away."
Zhang Dongfeng took the opportunity to discuss. "Today's tofu and bean sprouts were carried by more than a dozen people. Don't grab them, everyone buy one or two jin and leave some for the people behind."
"Starting tomorrow, tofu and bean sprouts will be suspended. After the road is repaired, we will notify everyone!"
Most people were reasonable. Looking at the villagers at the door of the supply and marketing cooperative who were so tired that their backs were bowed, they all agreed to Zhang Dongfeng's arrangement.
Chen Yan immediately wrote the notice on the small blackboard and asked the salesperson to notify the customers when checking out.
"Captain Xiang, you've worked hard, come to the backyard to drink some water." Xiang Jianming and his group were indeed thirsty and didn't decline.
"President Zhang, then wait until the road is repaired, and we will send tofu again." After Xiang Jianming drank water and talked about the road conditions, he was about to leave.
"Su Qingyue was almost hit by a stone, and Pei Huaiye blocked it. Both of them are in the hospital now, we have to go see them."
"Then you go quickly!"
Xiang Jianming added, "I'll find bull carts for you in the city these two days. After the convenient road is repaired, it's fine to use bull carts for transportation first."
"Thank you, President Zhang!" Su Qingwu and Li Zilan thanked him and went to the Xichuan Health Center.
Su Qingyue woke up in a hospital bed at the health center.
Pei Huaiye's eyes were bloodshot, his beard was unshaven, and his voice was exceptionally hoarse. "Awake? Is your head still dizzy?"
Su Qingyue shook her head slowly, raised her hand to touch the gauze on Pei Huaiye's forehead, and asked, "How are you?"
Pei Huaiye caught Su Qingyue's white and tender little hand, his eyes filled with the lingering fear of a narrow escape. "I'm fine, don't worry. You fainted from exhaustion and shock, and had an IV drip. Are you still uncomfortable now?"
Su Qingyue shook her head.
Yesterday, Su Qingyue was looking at the road conditions where the mudslide occurred, but didn't expect a few stones to suddenly slide down from the mountain.
Pei Huaiye saw that scene and flew over like a cheetah, holding Su Qingyue and rolling on the ground. He protected Su Qingyue tightly. The person in his arms was frightened and fainted, and he was hit on the forehead.
After the examination, Su Qingyue and the child in her belly were all fine, but she had been too exhausted recently, so she had two bottles of nutritional IVs. The doctor warned that she needed to pay attention to rest to prevent miscarriage.
Pei Huaiye had four stitches on his head, but fortunately, his physique was amazing. After resting for a night, he was like a person who had nothing to do, leaning in front of Su Qingyue's window, fearing that his delicate wife would make a mistake.
"Drink some water, I asked Yuan Guang to buy food."
Su Qingyue moistened her throat. "It didn't rain, why would there be a landslide?"
"I asked Yuan Guang to check. There was originally a large groove on the hillside of that road, which accumulated a lot of water sources. Plus the broken rocks and loose soil on the mountain, this landslide appeared."
"The Shuangqiao Commune has already organized people from several teams to rush to repair the road surface. My eldest brother, sister-in-law, and Captain Xiang have all arranged for people to send tofu and bean sprouts."
What Su Qingyue was worried about was this matter. "How to send? Is it sending goods by carrying baskets and carrying baskets?"
Pei Huaiye tucked the quilt for Su Qingyue. He nodded. "Captain Xiang said that the honest and trustworthy reputation of the processing factory cannot be broken."
A knock on the ward door sounded, and Yuan Guang shouted outside. "Pei Ge, it's me?"
Pei Huaiye got up to take the food. Four aluminum lunch boxes were all packed with food. Pei Huaiye washed his hands and picked up the food to feed Su Qingyue, but was refused.
Su Qingyue greeted Yuan Guang. She sat up. "I'll do it myself, you eat quickly too."
Pei Huaiye ate the food in three or two strokes and went to the corridor with Yuan Guang to talk about things.
"The landslide is indeed true, but I found footprints of deliberate destruction on the hillside yesterday."
Yuan Guang's eyes flashed with cold light. "The footprints were all blurred by leaves and broken stones, but you can vaguely see that they are leather shoes."
The Qingshan Team borrowed the tractor and had an accident. It is easy to locate the man in the whole village who can have a grudge against Su Qingyue and can afford leather shoes.
"Head, just tell me what you need to do."
Pei Huaiye clenched his fists, his eyes exceptionally terrifying. "Don't worry about this matter, I have a sense of proportion."
"Fine, the team asked for sick leave for you, but the regiment commander asked you to go back to the base today."
Pei Huaiye nodded.
In the ward, Su Mingqiang brought the whole family. "You girl, you didn't say you were pregnant. If it weren't for Huaiye yesterday, how scary it would be!"
"Dad, I know. I was thinking of telling you after three months."
Su Mingqiang scolded his daughter, and Li Zilan also complained on the side. Su Qingyue looked at Pei Huaiye at the door and pouted aggrievedly.
Pei Huaiye curled his lips without changing his expression. "Dad, sister-in-law, it's all my fault. I stopped her from saying it at the beginning. After I arrange the work, I will take good care of Qingyue."
They weren't really scolding, they were just too worried and said a few words on purpose.
Pei Huaiye opened his mouth, and Su Mingqiang closed his mouth resentfully. "The head is injured, why do you still have to work?"
"There is a meeting. I'll go arrange it, and then come after asking for leave."
Pei Huaiye explained to leave two people to watch Su Qingyue, and then left reluctantly.
Yuan Guang looked at Pei Ge's eyes looking at his wife, which were about to pull silk, and couldn't help but feel a burst of disgust and envy.
Recently, Pei Ge was obsessed with family care for his wife and turned from the front line to the commander. He was busy to death, and hadn't seen Dai Xiaohong for a long time.
Yuan Guang thought about it and quietly stuffed a letter to Pei Huaiye. "Pei Ge, please help me hand the letter to Dai Xiaohong after the sister-in-law is better."
Pei Huaiye took the letter with a smile. "Work hard, I'm waiting for you to report your marriage." ===== CHAPTER 107 =====
