The Brilliant Life of a Post-Apocalyptic Female Boss Reborn at 70

Xin Yi returned the tray, and Wu Guihua was still there, sighing, "Sister-in-law, why aren't you eating?"

Wu Guihua tried her best to control her expression, "Yiyi, we don't know how long we'll have to stay in the hospital. If we eat like this every day, I'm afraid we won't have enough money..."

Xin Yi then realized, "Wasn't this what Brother Zhang asked you to do, to eat more meat and vegetables to nourish your body? Don't worry about not having enough money, I've got you covered. Just eat without worry!"

Although she knew that Zhang Lao Er was trying to save money for her, she still felt it was too wasteful to spend money like this. She thought that she would just let it go after this meal and make sure to be more frugal in the future.

"Yiyi, let's remove your second brother's food first, then we can eat!"

"Okay!"

Xin Yi put a small portion of each dish into the lunchbox and closed the lid.

Having made up her mind, Wu Guihua said, "Let's eat while the food is hot!"

Xin Yi picked up her chopsticks and put some food on Wu Guihua's plate. "Sister-in-law, childbirth is very taxing on a woman's body. Don't worry about that little bit of money. Only when you're healthy can you create more wealth!"

Wu Guihua seemed to have put her mind at ease, "Okay, sister-in-law will listen to you, you should eat more too!"

"Okay, okay, sister-in-law, don't worry, things will only get better from now on, just trust me!"

After finishing their meal, the two took their lunchboxes back to their room. As soon as they entered the room, they sensed that the atmosphere was a little strange. Although there were two people in the room, it was unusually quiet, which further highlighted the desolation of the hospital.

When Zhang Lao Er saw his wife and Xin Yi return, he finally relaxed. "Wife, you're back!"

The old lady glanced at it and muttered, "Tsk, a good-for-nothing, a good-for-nothing!"

"Hey, Brother Zhang, come and see what delicious food we brought you! The food in the hospital cafeteria is really good!"

Zhang Lao Er rushed over and helped his wife up, "Guihua, have you finished eating?"

"Yes, I've finished eating. Don't worry about me. Yiyi and I ate a lot and we're very full."

Xin Yi placed the lunchbox on the small table, and Zhang Lao Er helped Wu Guihua to the bedside. When he opened the lunchbox, he saw that it was indeed very plentiful.

"Then you all sit down and rest for a while. I'll finish my meal first!"

"Alright, the hospital hasn't started work so early in the afternoon, so Sister Guihua can rest in bed for a while. I'll go visit my friend at the hospital."

"Okay, okay, you go ahead then, be careful!"

After Wu Guihua finished speaking, she took off her shoes and lay down on the bed. Xin Yi helped her lie down completely and covered her with a blanket.

"Sister-in-law, I'll be back on time!"

Xin Yi walked out of the room and asked the nurse for directions to the head of surgery's office. She then went to the door and knocked.

"Bang Bang Bang!"

"Is Dr. Feng here?"

"Please come in!"

Xin Yi pushed open the door and went in, "Aunt Feng!"

Upon seeing this, Feng Hua immediately stood up. "Yi Yi, what brings you here!"

Xin Yi said awkwardly, "I'm just accompanying the woman from the village to the hospital to give birth!"

Feng Hua walked over and grabbed Xin Yi's hand. "Come on, let's sit down and talk!"

As she spoke, she led Xinyi to a chair to sit down. "Tell your aunt what happened? Why didn't you give birth at the town hospital? Why did you have to go to the county hospital?"

"Well, my sister-in-law's due date has passed by several days and she hasn't shown any signs of labor yet. I'm worried there might be a problem, so I came with her to the county hospital for a checkup. Besides, the town hospital is in poor condition and lacks equipment. If something unexpected happens, they won't be able to handle it!"

Feng Hua thought about it and agreed. "Hmm, I'll ask around for you later to see if there are any good doctors in the obstetrics and gynecology department. By the way, who is the doctor you registered with?"

"Li Hongmei, Dr. Li!"

Upon hearing this, Feng Hua nodded and said, "Yes, she should be an expert in this field, a veritable gynecological master. As long as she's there, there shouldn't be any problems."

"If you say that, then I'm relieved. Let's wait for the ultrasound results to come out!"

"Okay, then do you need me to help arrange a single room for your sister-in-law later?"

Xin Yi thought about it and still refused. Although a single room would avoid a lot of trouble, the corresponding cost would increase considerably, and Zhang Lao Er and his wife would definitely not be willing. Even if Zhang Lao Er agreed, Wu Guihua would refuse, so she simply gave up.

"Aunt Feng, my sister-in-law's family isn't very well-off, so a single room is out of the question!"

Feng Hua originally wanted to suggest registering her as a family member, which would save a lot of money, but after Xin Yi said that, they decided to wait and see.

"Okay, just let your aunt know if you need anything later. Don't be shy. By the way, does Feng Yi know you're in the county town?"

"I haven't had time yet, have I? Brother Feng is still in the county town."

At this point, Feng Hua's expression turned somewhat serious. "This kid does have some things to take care of these days, so it's better if you don't go looking for him!"

"Auntie, it can't be something serious, can it? Tell me, maybe I can help him!"

Feng Hua looked troubled. "This matter is quite serious. I can't tell you without his permission. Let's wait for him to tell you in person!"

Xin Yi didn't insist. Everything depends on fate. After chatting for a while, Xin Yi looked at the wall clock and said, "Auntie, I'll go back now. I'll come see you again when I have time!"

Feng Hua checked the time. "Perfect timing. I'm about to go to work too. No rush, I'll come see your sister-in-law after I get off work!"

Xin Yi initially wanted to refuse, but then she thought that having an acquaintance would make things much easier, so she nodded and smiled, "Then I'll trouble you, Auntie!"

"Alright, alright, let's go now, see you later!"

When Xin Yi returned to the ward, Wu Guihua had already woken up, but her complexion was not good. She looked at Zhang Lao Er, whose expression was equally grave.

"What's going on? I don't think I've been gone that long. What are you all up to? Tell me!"

When Wu Guihua saw Xin Yi, her eyes immediately welled up with tears as she said, "Yi Yi, that old woman said I cheated on her husband and that I'm pregnant with another man's child!"

"Old woman? Which old woman?"

Xin Yi looked at Zhang Lao Er with a puzzled expression, and Zhang Lao Er replied irritably, "It's that old woman who was here this morning!"

"Her? How could she say that? Where is she? I need to have a serious talk with her!"

Zhang Lao Er looked guilty. "I just chatted with her casually at noon, and she became convinced that Guihua was cheating on me, saying that she wasn't past her due date, but just hadn't given birth yet!"

You believe that just like that?

Zhang Lao Er slapped his thigh, "I swear, I really didn't believe her! I just mentioned it to your sister-in-law, and she got angry!"

Xin Yi shook her head helplessly, went to Wu Guihua's side, and gently patted her shoulder, "Sister-in-law, don't be sad. Brother Zhang still believes in you. Besides, if you're upright, you have nothing to fear. What's there to worry about!"
