Chapter 11 - Wahh, Big Sis doesn’t love me anymore (3)

Su Dazhi also worked in a textile factory. Su Yu and him had taken over their parents’ jobs at the factory after their parents’ deaths. In order to take care of him, she let him take over the easier position, a job in the warehouse. All these years, his job had been very leisurely.

He had just finished checking on the warehouse, and he sat down and thought about how to persuade his older sister. He knew that this family must be separated. After all, Liu Mei was right. In the future, he’ll have his own little family and children of his own. 

It was impossible to live with his siblings forever. In the future, the relationship between siblings will become more and more distant. He must plan for his children earlier.

Right after he had made up his mind, Sun Xiaogang, his coworker, came rushing over to him. "Dazhi, hurry to the hospital, your older sister fainted."

Su Dazhi shuddered with fear. He stood up and said, "Who fainted?"

"Who else can it be? It’s your older sister! Su Yu! Driver Zhang from the transportation department just sent her over to the hospital. A person for the trade union has also gone to the hospital. You should also hurry there to take a look."

Su Dazhi was stunned. Big Sis fainted? How could his older sister faint? In all these years, his sister has never fallen down. When she had a fever last time, she didn't even go to the hospital. Didn’t she still get better anyways?

Sun Xiaogang pushed the muddle-headed Su Dazhi out of the warehouse, and Su Dazhi finally headed to hospital.

Su Yu was lying in the hospital at this moment.

Even if she hadn't fainted, plenty of problems could be found on this body of hers after a check up in the hospital: malnutrition and exhaustion from overworking which caused overall weakness and anemia.

After the examination, there was no easy way for the doctor to treat her. He could only give the union officer from the textile factory a doctor’s prescription to get 250 grams of soybeans and 150 grams of brown sugar from the logistic department. An extra egg was also given. When Su Yu woke up, she would be able to eat an egg cooked in brown sugar water.

The union officer sent by the trade union was a young woman named Yan Xiaofang. She gulped when she heard the doctor's order, then she went to boil an egg in brown sugar water.

When Yan Xiaofang came back with the boiled egg, Su Yu also woke up. Although she had pretended to be faint, she had ended up falling asleep until now.

The original owner’s physical foundation was too poor. Once she had been carried to the van, the bouncing of the van had made her sleepy, so she simply went to sleep. When she woke up, she smelled food. It should be lunchtime right now.

Yan Xiaofang saw that she had woken up and said happily, "Comrade Su Yu, you're awake. Are you feeling better?"

Su Yu answered in a dazed manner, “What's wrong with me?"

"You fainted!" Yan Xiaofang answered, agitated. It was the union's negligence if workers faint on top of their posts. And in her eyes, the ones who fainted at work, were glorious activists.

"Quickly get up and eat something. The doctor said you’re severely malnourished and gave you nutritional supplements. Quickly, eat some food.”

Yan Xiaofang put the enameled bowl on the table, and then came over to help Su Yu sit up.

Su Yu quickly sat up by herself. To be honest, she felt guilty about lying to such an honest young woman. And so, she said, "You haven’t eaten either, right? How about we share the food?”

Yan Xiaofang quickly shook her head. “I can’t do that. This food is for your nourishment. Comrade Su Yu, your health is too poor. Only by recovering your health will you be able to work better. How can a member of the union eat the nutritional supplements of our workers? No way!”

The doctor said that Su Yu’s health had been hollowed out. Su Yu needed to rest and eat well in order to recover, but she had also heard about Su Yu's family and knew that Su Yu's family condition was poor. So when she heard that Su Yu wanted to share something with her, she was touched even if she didn't accept it. Su Yu was such a nice person.

Su Yu looked at Yan Xiaofang, touched by her sincerity. She took the enamel bowl and started eating. Right now, an egg boiled in brown sugar water should be a rare delicacy for her.

However, Su Yu really couldn’t taste the deliciousness in this food. She missed the exquisite and varied food she had eaten in the past. After she had taken two bites, Su Yu's eyes turned red.

Yan Xiaofang panicked. "Why are you crying?"

"The factory treats me so well. I'm so sorry for my previous work attitude. I feel so guilty.” As Su Yu said this, she began to wipe her tears.
