Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 475
The doctor who received the case had just started working at the hospital and didn’t know He Jinxuan: "What’s wrong with you, the family? The old man is already in shock from the fever, and you only just brought him in."
After speaking, not giving anyone a chance to explain, the doctor directly instructed the nurse, seeing them all crowded in the emergency room: "What are you all doing standing here? Go wait outside."
Someone wanted to retort, but He Jinxuan quickly stopped them; now was not the time to explain.
They retreated outside, and He Jinxuan hurriedly said to the staff member, "Xiao Cheng, this must be reported to the factory leadership, after all, Uncle Zhao’s status is special."
The logistics staff member, Xiao Cheng, nodded and said, "Director He, I understand, I’ll head over to the factory department to find the leadership now."
The other staff from the security department had tasks to attend to and left gradually after escorting the patient; when the factory leaders arrived and were about to inquire about the situation, a nurse emerged: "Nurse, how is the patient inside?"
The nurse, on the way to fetch medicine, replied while running, "We’re in the middle of rescuing the patient, please keep quiet and don’t distract the doctors inside."
The ones who came were Old Secretary Miao Guiping and Deputy Factory Director Wang Zhenxiang. Both looked urgently towards He Jinxuan upon hearing this.
He Jinxuan was also unclear about the exact situation inside, so he recapped the events that had occurred before. The old secretary gazed at the door of the emergency room: "We were negligent in our work, given Uncle Zhao’s age and unique situation, we should have arranged for someone to check on him daily."
Deputy Factory Director Wang Zhenxiang said with a grave expression: "We absolutely can’t let anything happen."
The old secretary frowned deeply: "Yes, Zhao Kunyun has been out of touch for many years, but Uncle Zhao always said he would return. If anything happens to Uncle Zhao, how will we explain to that young man Zhao Kunyun if he comes back?"
Wang Zhenxiang didn’t take this seriously: "But it’s been years already; if he was coming back, he would’ve done so by now."
He was worried about Uncle Zhao’s fever going unnoticed. If something truly happened, and Zhao Kunyun did return, he might come looking for answers later.
After all, back then Zhao Kunyun risked his life to save people while the factory was organizing a fishing trip at the Yuquan River, which had been approved by the higher-ups. He was injured saving factory children, hence it’s a work injury.
Though no trace of him was found—alive or dead—they had compensated monetarily, but his family’s situation was special; the old man’s ancestral home had no relatives left, and the responsibility rested with the factory.
Furthermore, when the daughter-in-law remarried, all the compensation money was given to her for the sake of the grandson’s future. At that time, the old man wisely had the factory leadership witness, and the daughter-in-law wrote a guarantee that apart from her share, the rest would be spent on the grandson.
It moved many people back then.
After the daughter-in-law left, the old man lived frugally. Everyone understood that he was probably saving money for his grandson; that was his hope.
When the door of the emergency room opened, they all crowded around: "Doctor, how is the patient?"
The doctor was about to speak when the nearby nurse interjected, explaining Uncle Zhao’s situation to the doctor.
The doctor was quite embarrassed and repeatedly apologized to He Jinxuan: "I’m really sorry, I thought you were a family member, so I spoke rather bluntly because I was anxious. Please don’t hold it against me."
He Jinxuan, being the mature person he was, didn’t get upset over this: "I didn’t take it to heart. Let’s focus on discussing Uncle Zhao’s condition."
