Chapter 1376: Chapter 1376: Bitter-Sweet mories 1 Chapter 1376: Chapter 1376: Bitter-Sweet mories 1 Niu Suhong saw Feng Qingxue and the other assistant nurses co out and abruptly stood up, rising so suddenly that she swayed and nearly fell, but it was her eldest daughter, quick to react, who caught her.
“Mom, slow down.”
“How is Erni doing?” Niu Suhong couldn’t wait and hurriedly asked Feng Qingxue.
Feng Qingxue removed her mask and nodded at her, “The operation went very smoothly. What follows is proper care during recovery. She must be well taken care of until she’s fully recovered before we discuss rehabilitation.”
No one knew how the child had been injured; her left lower leg had a comminuted fracture, with bones out of place.
Although the surgery had been perford and every effort had been made, Feng Qingxue couldn’t be sure there wouldn’t be any sequelae for the child.
Fortunately, her skull and internal organs were unhard, a silver lining in an unfortunate situation.
One of Feng Qingxue’s assistants told Niu Suhong, “Don’t worry, Comrade Qingxue’s surgery was particularly well done, quick and accurate, on par with the best bone-setter in our military, Doctor Miao!”
Niu Suhong repeatedly thanked Feng Qingxue, “You’ve worked hard, Sister-in-law!”
“Don’t ntion it, it’s my duty,” Feng Qingxue patted her arm.
Lu Jiang added from the side, “Sister-in-law, just let us know if you need anything. With Comrade n Yun not at ho, your child’s matter is a matter for the military.” He thought to himself that he should remind his wife to send over so nutritional supplents.
Like Ping Zhengkai, many soldiers bore heavy family responsibilities, and n Yun’s family was no exception.
Niu Suhong nodded, “Thank you, Comrade Colonel Lu. And special thanks to Sister-in-law for stepping up to perform this surgery on Erni.”
“I’ve already said, don’t ntion it, the child’s health is what’s important.”
Under the proud gaze of her husband and eldest son, Feng Qingxue waited for Doctor Miao to finish with the operating table, checked on Erni’s condition, exchanged words with Feng Qingxue, and after instructing the nurse on various precautions, Feng Qingxue finally left with her husband and son.
It was already dark, and the cold wind was biting.
“Mom, you’re so aweso!” Xibao hugged her mother’s arm, her eyes full of admiration.
“You study hard, and you’ll definitely be even more amazing than Mom in the future!” Feng Qingxue took her children’s education very seriously. She believed that under the guidance of so many masters, Xibao would surely exceed expectations.
Xibao, with a smile curving her brows and eyes, said loudly, “Mom is the most amazing.”
Her little mouth, sweet as if sared with honey, had never changed since she was little.
“What about ?” Lu Jiang asked with a stern face.
Xibao thought for a mont, “Although Dad, you are also amazing, Mom is the most amazing. Mom can save lives, cook, speak foreign languages, paint, and sing, while all you can do is work in the military.”
After saying that, fearing a reprimand from his father, he whooshed behind Feng Qingxue, peeking out his little head to gauge the reaction.
Lu Jiang wasn’t angry, but instead, an oil-like sense of guilt surfaced.
For his wife, for his children.
He had spent most of his life in the military, inevitably failing his elders, wife, and children by not being able to spend enough ti with them, not being able to ticulously take care of them in terms of clothing, food, housing, and transportation. The burden of the entire family rested on his wife’s shoulders, forcing her to exit the military and return to family life when she couldn’t juggle it with her career.
His wife’s sacrifice was great, and Lu Jiang was always grateful in his heart, and he also felt an increased respect for the won of the world. Most of them would choose family, whereas nearly all n would choose their careers.
This is the difference in attitudes toward family and children.
The choice made by female comrades made many male comrades feel ashad.
