Before we knew it, it was the morning of the second day.
With Shi Lei as the surgeon, the operation went smoothly. A steel plate was added to fix Lao Yu's left forearm, which helps the bone heal and recover as quickly as possible. However, because of Lao Yu's age, his recovery will naturally be slower than that of a younger person.
Besides his left arm, Lao Yu's lower body was covered with a cast. Fortunately, space was specially provided for him so that it wouldn't affect his toilet use, although he would need assistance when using the toilet.
Shi Lei, who came out of the operating room with Huang Xiaochuan and Yu Wei, said, "Don't worry! Everything will be fine. Just rest at home and come back in three months to remove the metal plate."
"Brother Shi Lei! Let's have dinner together tonight!" Yu Wei extended the invitation directly.
Shi Lei did not agree immediately, but looked at Huang Xiaochuan instead.
Huang Xiaochuan asked him, "Why are you looking at me? Don't you have time?"
Shi Lei asked, "I mean, are you coming together tonight?"
Huang Xiaochuan laughed: "Of course! Yu Wei invited you to dinner, so of course I have to go!"
"Alright, I'm off tomorrow anyway, and I'd like to have a drink tonight too." Shi Lei naturally wouldn't be as polite to Yu Wei and Huang Xiaochuan as he was to others.
Huang Xiaochuan laughed and said, "Perfect timing. Zhiyuan came this afternoon too, so we can all get together tonight. It's been a while since we've had a proper drink together."
Shi Lei knew Yue Zhiyuan and was naturally delighted to hear that he would be there that evening: "Then we really have to drink until we drop tonight."
At that moment, Yue Zhiyuan and his family of three were sitting in a helicopter bound for Shanghai.
Inside the cabin, the family of three sat in comfortable leather airline seats, with Yue Xiaoyong peering out the window.
Because helicopters don't fly as high as passenger planes, you can clearly see the snow-covered land outside, as well as various houses and towns flashing by, and the people staring at the helicopter. It's as if everyone has become a citizen of a miniature world. This experience made Yue Xiaoyong, who had never been in a helicopter before, very excited.
He tugged at his father's clothes: "Dad, that plane flew so low! And it was so fast, it just flew past the market in a flash, I didn't even have time to see it."
Yue Zhiyuan smiled and said that he heard his son's words. In fact, he was quite anxious at the moment, not knowing how his father-in-law was doing, so he was not in the mood to appreciate the scenery outside.
Yu Min was just as anxious as he was, wishing the plane would land in Shanghai immediately, preferably directly at the hospital.
Although she sometimes complained about her parents' favoritism towards their son, when she learned that her father was injured, she was initially panicked, and then anxious to be by his side.
According to air traffic control regulations in Shanghai, helicopters are generally not allowed to enter urban areas without permission. Therefore, when this helicopter arrived in Shanghai, it could only land at the general aviation airport in Qingpu. However, the vehicle arranged by Huang Xiaochuan to pick it up had been waiting there for a long time.
After the family of three got off the plane, they took their luggage and went straight to the city. Due to the road conditions in Shanghai and the heavy snow the day before, the journey from the general airport to the hospital took longer than the helicopter flight from Qingjiang to Shanghai. It took them a full two hours and fifty minutes to get to the hospital.
The staff responsible for transportation took them directly to the special needs ward where Lao Yu was staying.
When Yu Min saw her elderly father with his left arm bandaged, her eyes reddened: "Dad!"
Yue Zhiyuan called out from behind, "Dad! We're here!"
"Grandpa, what's wrong?" Yue Xiaoyong ran to Old Yu's bedside.
Old Yu was overjoyed to see his second daughter's family arrive, especially when he saw his grandson Yue Xiaoyong, he was even happier.
He held his grandson's hand with his right hand: "It's nothing, it's nothing, he just tripped and fell."
Yu Min, Yue Zhiyuan, and Yue Xiaoyong greeted Zheng Aiying, who was also in the ward.
"mom!"
"mom!"
"grandmother!"
Zheng Aiying asked with concern, "Was the journey smooth?"
"It went smoothly, and we landed in less than two hours. It's just that the road from the airport to the hospital was difficult to navigate, which caused a slight delay," Yue Zhiyuan answered his mother-in-law's question truthfully.
Zheng Aiying sighed, "This was all thanks to your brother-in-law. If it weren't for him, you wouldn't have been able to get here so easily."
Yu Min agreed with Zheng Aiying's words. On the way here, the plane passed over the highway many times, and there were long traffic jams every now and then. The river crossing was even more congested for more than ten kilometers. You can imagine that if she and Yue Zhiyuan had driven here, let alone tonight, it would have been a miracle if they could have arrived here by tomorrow.
So she was very grateful to her all-powerful brother-in-law, and she asked, "Where is my brother-in-law?"
Zheng Aiying pointed eastward: "Your brother-in-law and Yu Wei have been here all morning. I told them to go back and rest. Yu Wei and the others are also at your brother-in-law's house."
At this moment, Huang Xiaochuan had already learned from his subordinate's phone call that Yu Minyue and Zhiyuan had arrived. He nudged Yu Wei, who was lying on the sofa, and said, "Your second sister and Zhiyuan have arrived and are at the hospital now."
Yu Wei immediately sat up and looked at his watch: "Didn't the plane go to pick them up this morning? Why are they only arriving now?"
"What kind of talk is that? It doesn't take them long to come all the way from Qingpu! Don't you know what the situation was like on the road when you were driving yesterday?" Huang Xiaochuan glared at his brother-in-law in annoyance.
Yu Wei realized he had said the wrong thing and felt a little embarrassed.
Soon, Yu Xiang and Tang Yuan came downstairs. Yu Xiang had just received a call from her mother, Zheng Aiying.
Yu Xiang waved her phone: "Yu Min and Zhiyuan have arrived, let's go over!"
"Alright! Let's go then!" Huang Xiaochuan had originally planned to go anyway, so he naturally agreed to Yu Xiang's suggestion.
When the three children heard that Yue Xiaoyong had arrived, they wanted to go to the hospital with him, but Yu Xiang refused: "You three stay at home. Your second aunt and the others will be here soon. Don't run around."
Before leaving, Yu Xiang specifically instructed the little girl: "You stay at home and don't go out in the yard. Look at how crazy you were this morning! Your clothes are soaked through from head to toe, inside and out. What if you catch a cold?"
"Oh!" the little girl replied reluctantly.
After the family met, there was naturally a round of pleasantries.
At that moment, as is customary, Shi Lei came to check on Lao Yu's post-operative condition.
After looking at it, Shi Lei smiled and said, "The old man is in good health. As long as he gets enough nutrition, he should recover quickly. However, he can't drink this wine during the New Year, but he can drink a little during the Lantern Festival."
When Lao Yu heard that he couldn't drink alcohol during the Spring Festival, his face immediately fell. But when he heard that he could drink during the Lantern Festival, he cheered up again.
Zheng Aiying witnessed this scene and was furious, but she forced herself to endure it in front of so many people, especially since she had just undergone surgery.
