Chapter 462 - 0462: Learning to Walk 2_1
Feng Qingxue, having nothing to do, greeted her doctor and went to assist in a ward with patients.
The hospital was not crowded with people giving birth, unless their labor was complicated, so the obstetrics and gynecology department was fairly empty. However, there were many children with cold and fever in the pediatrics department, taken there by adults. Feng Qingxue assisted Dr. Zhao and learned a lot from the experience.
Town and city workers could get medical treatment for free at the hospital, but it was not necessarily the case for non-employees.
Even so, the fees for a worker’s family member were still quite low.
After a busy half-day, things quieted down in the afternoon.
On Saturday afternoons, the doctors would finish their shifts early, going to work only an hour after lunch.
Feng Qingxue got home earlier than usual. As soon as she walked through the door, she noticed Xibao’s grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Cheng, squatting in the yard, clapping their hands to encourage Xibao. Xibao, dressed only in diapers after being freed from his winter clothes, was taking shaky steps towards them, falling to the ground as he tried to pick up his pace when he was close to his grandparents.
The little tyke didn’t cry when he fell. Noticing no one was coming to pick him up, he quickly picked himself up and continued his trek, finally falling into Mrs. Cheng’s arms with a joyful grin.
