Rebirth: She is Ready for a Counterattack! Chapter 293 - 292: Surgery

As soon as Fang Shaohan left, Gu Xiaoqing finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The whole family went back ho.

Early the next morning, the whole family arrived at the hospital because of the surgery today; no one could be without worry.

Except for Han Qi and Wu Fengying, who stayed ho; one needed to take care of the children, and the other was pregnant, so it was not convenient for them to co to the hospital.

Gu Xiaojie also stayed at ho.

Gu Xiaoying and Gu Xiaoqing ca along with the family.

Li Zhaodi’s surgery today had everyone in the family anxious. No one was not worried. Surgery was sothing none of them had experienced or seen before, so who would know what it was all about.

Li Xuei, Liu Fen, and Han Xue were going to accompany her, and the three of them were mainly responsible for chatting with Li Zhaodi to distract her, so she wouldn’t let her mind wander and get more scared.

Even so, Li Zhaodi was scared. Last night, she gave special instructions to her daughter and daughter-in-law about where the family’s savings were kept, who still owed them money, how much to give for gift money, and asked Li Weimin to fix the leaky roof of the old house’s southern room co spring.

These were scattered trivial matters, but it was clear Li Zhaodi was worried about not waking up and was arranging her affairs.

Li Xuei gave her a stern look to shut her up.

When everyone arrived, the doctor had already arranged everything. Li Zhaodi was in a hospital gown, lying on the hospital bed, and had started receiving an IV. She hadn’t been allowed to eat since last night because she’d be going in soon.

Seeing Gu Xiaoqing, Li Zhaodi waved her over, "Xiaoqing, you’re finally here. Grandma’s been so anxious, but seeing you makes feel at ease."

Gu Xiaoqing went over, held Li Zhaodi’s hand, and sat by the bed. Li Zhaodi’s hand was cold, likely a psychological reaction from fear.

"Grandma, it’s fine. The doctor has already said this is a minor surgery. When you go in, they’ll give you anesthesia, and you just need to take a nap. When you wake up, your minor health issues will be gone. You won’t feel a thing; it’s just like taking a nap." Gu Xiaoqing used the simplest words to comfort Li Zhaodi. Not to ntion Li Zhaodi being scared, it was also the first ti in Gu Xiaoqing’s two lifetis facing surgery like this.

Li Zhaodi skeptically asked, "Really just sleep and wake up? It’s not like you sleep and never wake up again, right?"

Gu Xiaoqing chuckled and shook Li Zhaodi’s hand, saying, "What are you thinking, Grandma? Of course, it’s just taking a nap and waking up. How could you not wake up? The hospital took a lot of our money, and the doctor doing your surgery is very famous." Whispering in Li Zhaodi’s ear, she said, "My dad even gave that doctor a big red envelope. They say this expert is so busy you can’t even get in line with a bribe, and there’s never been a failed case in his surgeries.

Think about it, would soone take our money if there’s a problem? No one would joke with their reputation, right?"

Hearing this, Li Zhaodi felt much more confident.

Right, an expert wouldn’t joke with their reputation.

Thinking this was certainly just a minor issue, Li Zhaodi began to feel sorry for the tens of thousands of dollars.

This hospital is wickedly expensive.

Spending so much on a minor issue, that money could buy several houses in their village.

Seeing Li Zhaodi change from fear to regret and pity, Gu Xiaoqing couldn’t help but want to laugh.

But this was a good thing because it shifted Li Zhaodi’s focus.

That was the goal.

After a while, a nurse ca to help the family push Li Zhaodi’s hospital bed to the other side to the surgery room.

Since Li Zhaodi tightly held onto Gu Xiaoqing’s hand, it was Li Weimin, Li Weiqiang, Gu Ruhai, and Gu Xiaoqing who pushed the bed together.

At the surgery room door, a dedicated nurse had Li Zhaodi switch to another bed and did not let them in, pushing Li Zhaodi inside.

Although Li Zhaodi didn’t say anything, she looked at Gu Xiaoqing eagerly, almost as if she was going to cry.

Gu Xiaoqing forced the ugliest smile in her life to see Li Zhaodi off, even though she knew it was ugly, but looking at the pitiful Li Zhaodi, she really couldn’t muster a bright and sunny smile.

Probably any heavy-hearted relative couldn’t manage that.

The surgery room doors closed.

The red "Surgery in Progress" light ca on.

Li Xuei and the others ca over, supporting Li Qinghai, who insisted on staying to wait, ignoring everyone’s persuasion.

The whole family was silent. It was very quiet here, except for the sll of Li Qinghai’s pipe and a few n’s cigarettes, which was soon stopped by the nurse, as smoking was not allowed here.

Three hours later, the surgery light finally went out.

Gu Xiaoqing and the others gathered, nervously waiting for news of Li Zhaodi.

The surgery room doors opened, and Li Zhaodi was pushed out, lying on the bed with eyes closed.

Her complexion didn’t look too bad, just a bit pale, much like when she was sleeping normally.

The doctor also removed his mask and ca out.

Gu Xiaoqing went up to ask, "Doctor, how is my grandma?"

The doctor looked at the young girl and smiled, "It went smoothly; we successfully removed the diseased part of the stomach. Your grandma caught it early, and treatnt was tily, so no worries. After the surgery, as long as she follows the hospital’s treatnt and dication plan and takes care of her health, she’ll be fine."

The surgery was indeed very successful.

Gu Xiaoqing thanked the doctor.

Then she joined everyone to go to the ward.

The news was shared with Li Qinghai, Li Weimin, and Li Weiqiang, as it was good news that they had all been worried about.

Now they could finally relax.

The following half month was mainly for recovery, and Li Zhaodi recovered quickly.

Li Xuei almost made pigeon soup with traditional Chinese dicine for Li Zhaodi’s recovery every al, in addition to ticulous care.

So one month later, Li Zhaodi could finally be discharged.

This Lunar New Year, their family spent it in the hospital.

But the best thing was that Li Zhaodi’s recovery was excellent, becoming energetic quickly. Interesting enough, when the doctor permitted discharge, Li Zhaodi didn’t want to leave, saying she hadn’t stayed enough to get her money’s worth.

If Gu Xiaoqing hadn’t warned her that continuing to stay would an more costs, Li Zhaodi would not have been discharged.
