Chapter 232
The money and coupons Sun Meili brought were definitely not enough, but she wrote an IOU, and the hospital wasn't afraid of military wives owing money.
Treating the military wife first was the priority, and the hospitalization procedures for the medicine were handled very quickly.
"Don't be afraid. After the anesthetic is injected, you can just treat it as having a sleep. When you wake up, the minor surgery will be over. Just rest well in the hospital, and talk about other things after you are discharged."
Shen Man comforted her and stabilized the other party's emotions.
Being a woman herself, she felt sorry for Sun Meili's situation.
Perhaps, only women would empathize with women at such a time.
"Okay, thank you."
Sun Meili nodded, then followed the nurse into an operating room, took off her clothes, and prepared for anesthesia and disinfection.
For the entire afternoon, Shen Man, along with her sister-in-law and Nurse Gao, processed the sores in the operating room.
Several large sores were severely festering.
Even wearing a mask, it was a very severe test in terms of vision and smell.
All three were pregnant, and for such a scene, they all felt somewhat physically uncomfortable.
But a doctor's heart was benevolent; this was work, so they all held on, and before the anesthetic completely wore off, they finished processing the sores, applied medicine, and bandaged them.
"Ugh—"
After coming out of the operating room, all three leaned against the wall and vomited.
Fortunately, Sun Meili was still in a coma, otherwise, if she heard it, she might feel guilty, or she might feel inferior, thinking she was being disliked.
"I feel like I can't eat dinner tonight."
"Me too."
"Seconded."
The three looked sallow, and suddenly they all laughed.
Two days later, Sun Meili was discharged.
On the third day, she took the initiative to send the remaining medical expenses.
She solemnly thanked Shen Man and the others, and at the same time told them that she was preparing to divorce.
"I used to think that being a military wife meant being well-fed and well-clothed, with no worries about livelihood.
But this half-year of following the army has made me unlike myself."
The marks on Sun Meili's face were still there, but they had improved. The headscarf had been taken off, and the smile on her face had become easygoing, looking brand new.
"I don't want to be trapped in marriage anymore. I contacted my cousin. My cousin is in Shenzhen, so I'm going to rely on her. If I can make something of myself, I'll send a letter back then to tell the sisters that I'm doing well.
Of course, if I'm not doing well, I won't send a letter, saving the sisters from worrying."
"Mm, work hard."
After hearing this, Shen Man didn't know what to feel.
She saw that the energy in Sun Meili's heart had turned completely white.
This implied that the current Sun Meili was completely a kind-hearted person.
Congratulations, Sun Meili was reborn and re-chose her future.
Sun Meili's departure caused quite a stir in the family quarters.
At the same time, it sounded an alarm for many military families: if you encounter gynecological diseases, you must treat them in time and never delay; the longer you delay, the more serious it gets!
And also, don't be too much of a certain person.
His own wife had been hospitalized for several days, and he didn't visit even once, nor was he willing to pay for treatment. Could such a military officer still be reused?
Almost at the same time the two divorced, Sun Meili's ex-husband was put on the bench for some reason, gradually lost his importance, and was on the list for transfer next year!
Many military families were discussing privately: serves him right!
As for Sun Meili, after the divorce, she stylishly picked up her suitcase and left the Sea Island.
It was said she was going to rely on her cousin and go to Shenzhen.
No matter what, the military families silently blessed Sun Meili: after the divorce, you must live well.
It was also through this incident that the military families began to attach importance to gynecology. Once there was a headache, fever, or wound infection, they didn't hold it in or endure it anymore.
If you should go to the military hospital, go to the military hospital.
Spend money if you should spend money. If you don't spend money now, do you wait until their condition is serious and their men might not be willing to spend money? Will they have Sun Meili's boldness?
Actually, most military officers still loved their wives; a small number of people were selfish and implicated the reputation of all military officers.
For this reason, Political Commissar Ji appropriately strengthened the ideological education of military officers, held meetings, and took ideological actions.
If the small family is not peaceful, how can the world be peaceful?
Not only that, Political Commissar Ji also applied for a film projectionist to come to the military region on weekends to show the latest patriotic and romantic films to the military families in turns.
For a time, the atmosphere in the troops was solemn again and again, and the happiness index soared.
The military canteen was also opened for one day, making coconut milk peach gum, and every military officer could receive a portion to take home to nourish their wives' bodies.
In such a harmonious atmosphere, many more military wives became pregnant; just the registration alone had twenty-one!
According to statistics, there were already forty-six pregnant military wives in the family quarters!
Among them, twenty-five had been pregnant for more than half a year!
January and February next year would be the node for concentrated delivery surgeries in the obstetrics and gynecology department. The hospital director held a meeting with the directors of various departments to fully support the obstetrics and gynecology department.
In order to ensure the safety of the parturients, the hospital director urgently applied to purchase a batch of advanced medical equipment from outside the island.
Midwifery instruments, advanced medicines, hemostatic forceps, etc.
Precisely because of the hospital's emphasis, the military wives who often came for prenatal check-ups had no burden in their hearts.
It was said that when a woman gave birth, she was passing through the gates of hell.
Now it was good; medicine was more developed than in the past, and the military hospital was very well-prepared. They had no worries, so naturally, they ate well.
In a blink of an eye, another month passed in a flash.
Shen Man's belly was like a balloon; she was pregnant with twins, so naturally, it was much bigger than an ordinary pregnant woman.
Pei Yan Ting's belly was only half the size of Shen Man's. Knowing that her sister was pregnant with twins, her envy went without saying.
At the same time, she was worried about her sister's physical discomfort, so when her sister was eight months pregnant, she applied for maternity leave for her.
Although it didn't snow on the Sea Island in winter, the weather was indeed much colder.
Shen Man wasn't the kind of desperate woman who knew that at this time, waiting for delivery with peace of mind was the most important thing.
So she happily applied for maternity leave. As for her sister-in-law, she would probably have to apply for prenatal check-ups in a month.
The obstetrics and gynecology department had few hands, but under the director's emphasis, personnel had been transferred from various departments, and with the reinforcements transferred from outside the island arriving in the middle of next month, there was no chaotic phenomenon.
Everything was developing in a good direction.
Jiang Ye recently had no major matters on hand, and minor matters were handed over to the deputy regiment commander.
He mainly took care of his wife who was waiting for delivery. The deputy regiment commander had no complaints about this, but was very excited; if he did more, maybe one day the regiment commander would be promoted, and he could be promoted.
Besides Jiang Ye, the other twenty expectant father military officers were also consciously accompanying their wives for prenatal check-ups recently, ready to wait at any time.
The birth of a new life would be the best gift in the new year...
