Chapter 50: A Surprise Parting
After the secretary and the county magistrate finished speaking, a large group of small leaders came to the stage to speak in turn, and the director of the health bureau, the deputy director, the director of the CDC and other leaders Rory spent more than an hour to finally finish speaking. Then Fang Yongchao came to the stage, according to the list in turn to invite a group of warriors to the front line to support the stage, under the leadership of captain Liang Hongyi, the vice captain Liu Tao led a group of warriors to walk towards the rostrum with firm steps.
Sun Lei heard the dean call his name, let go of Zhao Lin's hand and walked towards the stage, Zhao Lin wanted to catch up and hug Sun Lei, but stopped just taking a step, although there was a million reluctance in his heart, but Zhao Lin knew that now was not the time for children to be long, so he had to hold back tears and watch Sun Lei leave. Sun Lei let go of Zhao Lin's hand, his eyes were wet the moment he turned around, so he had to raise his head and walk towards it without hesitation.
After the eight warriors who went out to stand on the stage, Fang Yongchao said with red eyes and a choked voice: "The eight warriors who went out are the captain Liang Hongyi, a respiratory doctor in our hospital. Vice Captain Liu Tao, intensive care medicine doctor. Team member Ain, a respiratory nurse. Team member Sun Lei, an intensive care doctor. Team member Chen Pingping, nurse of the intensive care department. Team member Wang Xin, respiratory doctor. Team member Lu Wenping, infectious disease doctor, team member Zhang Zhiqiang, infectious disease doctor...... "No matter what Fang Yongchao does on weekdays, he is indeed revealing his true feelings at this moment, he sees that his subordinates are about to risk themselves, and he can't help feeling depressed, he hates this feeling, he wants to send his subordinates who have been with him for many years to a dangerous place in this way one by one, he would rather not have an epidemic than be in the limelight."
Every time Fang Yongchao introduced a team member, the introduced team member stepped forward to greet the crowd in the audience, saying that it was a greeting, but in fact, it was just a simple wave of his hand, because everyone's heart was depressed, and they didn't have much to think about being in the limelight. But Liu Tao, the old boy, inadvertently attracted everyone's attention, when the old boy introduced himself to the dean, I saw that he stepped forward and wanted to say hello to the captain Liang Hongyi, I don't know if it was because he was nervous or what, his legs stumbled over each other, and he was a dog eating in front of him, fortunately, he usually exercised, and his body coordination was not bad。
The reporters in the audience took as many pictures of the eight warriors as possible, and no one knew if this was the last video they left in this world, whether it was a reporter or not, they took it seriously, because everyone who had the courage to sacrifice their lives for others deserves respect. After Fang Yongchao introduced all the team members, the hospital staff representatives who had already prepared sent flowers, and the warriors who went out had a bouquet of hands, and against the backdrop of flowers, everyone's faces were more or less with a trace of sorrow, and the future was uncertain.
When Liang Hongyi took over the team flag from Fang Yongchao's hand, the audience burst into warm applause, everyone knows that this flag represents a kind of inheritance, a virtue passed down from generation to generation by generations of doctors, and one of the greatest qualities in the world. At the same time, this flag is also a kind of entrustment, is the county's people for the warriors of a kind of ardent expectation, the hometown of the old folks look forward to the safe return of every warrior, this flag in the devastated epidemic area will be as dazzling as a lighthouse. The secretary came to the stage again, this time he didn't take the manuscript, he took the microphone from Fang Yongchao's hand and said: "You are the representatives of the people of the county, I hope you can live up to your mission and defeat the epidemic." You are also the relatives of the people of our county, and I ask you to protect yourselves, return safely, and welcome you back when the epidemic is over. ”
The special car to bid farewell to the warriors has been waiting in the corner of the square for a long time, and the car is wearing a banner with big red flowers as usual, the content of the banner is: Farewell to the anti-epidemic warriors to the front line, the other side of the body reads: May the warriors go out to triumph as soon as possible. The warriors walked towards the bus, and the relatives and friends who saw off the warriors came forward one by one to say goodbye.
As soon as Sun Lei came down from the stage, his parents, brother and sister-in-law, father-in-law, Zhao Lin and nephew Sun Zhi stepped forward to surround Sun Lei, and everyone's faces were full of worry and concern. This parting came so unexpectedly that Zhao Guoqiang, who is known for his strength, had tears in the corners of his eyes, although he said words of encouragement to Sun Lei, but Lao Zhao Tou was still faintly worried about his son-in-law, an aunt-like laer, Lao Zhao Tou was not as strong as he described.
Compared with the tears in the corners of Lao Zhao's eyes, his mother and mother-in-law cried directly, and her mother stepped forward to gently sort out Sun Lei's clothes, and said: "Son, you have to take care of yourself, don't be hungry or cold when you get there." As she spoke, the mother took out a cloth bag from her pocket, opened it, and took out a neatly folded stack of bills from it, which was estimated to be several thousand dollars. The mother handed the money to Sun Lei and said: "Child, don't be wronged when you get there, you take this money, you can eat and drink when you should eat, if it is not enough, you call me, I will ask someone to send it to you." "In a mother's world, children are always uneasy, even if her children have been able to take charge of themselves, even if she doesn't have a lot, but she is still willing to leave the best for her children.
Looking at his mother's gray sideburns, Sun Lei couldn't hold back anymore, hugged his mother tightly, and cried as if he had been comforted by his mother when he lost his sheep. The father stepped forward and said with red eyes: "Okay, okay, don't cry for you two mothers, the child is going to work, what does this crying look like." When the mother heard her father's words, she quickly stopped crying and wiped away her tears and said, "Yes, our son is going to work, this is a good thing to cure the sick and save people, and we should all be happy." Mother laughed as she spoke, and tears flowed down her cheeks as she laughed.
Li Fenglan stepped forward and said to her mother: "Mother-in-law, I think it's better to let Xiao Lei and Linlin talk!"
Sun Wei stepped forward, patted Sun Lei on the shoulder and said, "Okay, take care." Sun Lei looked at the ice cream in his brother's hair, his nose was sour again, this is his brother, who rode a tricycle for dozens of kilometers in the cold early in the morning to see him off, although he usually doesn't have too many phone calls, but his brother has been silently caring about himself.
Sun Lei took a step forward, hugged his brother, and said, "Brother, please." When Sun Wei heard his brother's words, he was stunned for a moment and said, "I don't agree, your own responsibility has to be completed by yourself, and no one can do it for you." Sun Wei's eyes turned red as he spoke, how much pressure his younger brother must have been under, so that he would explain the future before leaving.
Sun Zhi stepped forward, hugged Sun Lei's thigh and said, "Uncle hug." With the immature tone and the pitiful little expression, Sun Lei's heart melted in an instant, and he quickly picked up Sun Zhi and put his head on Sun Zhi's stomach, and the little guy was amused to laugh.
Liu Tao looked at Sun Lei's lively farewell atmosphere, and then looked at the cold and lonely around him, except for a few colleagues, there was no one else, Liu Tao's heart felt unspeakably uncomfortable and regretful, if he hadn't been so stubborn and hadn't been so stiff with his sister, maybe now his sister would come to see him off, right?
Liu Tao was sad again, only to hear a voice behind him: "Brother." Liu Tao sounded like his sister's voice, and then laughed self-deprecatingly, he and his sister had not been in contact for more than ten years, how could she suddenly come to him at this time.
"Brother. This time the voice felt very close to me. Liu Tao turned his head and saw his sister standing behind him, he hadn't seen him for more than ten years, and his sister's face also had a trace of time.
Liu Tao looked at his sister, looked at the tears and slipped down, and then covered his face and cried quietly, this man who had been pretending to be himself put down all his disguises at this moment and cried like a child. "Brother, don't cry, didn't I come. Liu Juan persuaded her brother, but she cried herself before she finished a sentence. Before yesterday, Liu Juan never thought that she would be able to forgive her brother one day, but when she knew that her brother was going to the front line to support, all the stubbornness suddenly disappeared, she just wanted to hurry to her brother's side, even if she could only accompany her a few words, as for those forgiveness or not it doesn't matter whether she forgives or not, no matter what happened in the past, and no matter what she quarreled with her brother before, at this moment those are just the past, when she knew that her brother was going to go into danger, the blood relationship that had been diluted for so many years instantly became thick again, this night Liu Juan and her husband drove nearly a thousand kilometers, and finally arrived before the brother left。
"Xiaojuan, why are you here?" asked Liu Tao excitedly. "I saw you on the list of expeditions from the WeChat public account, I wanted to send you off, you have been wronged over the years, I'm sorry. Liu Juan said and cried again.
The news of his departure was released on the official account, that is, more than ten hours, and in these ten hours, his sister rushed nearly a thousand kilometers to see him, Liu Tao's heart felt warm, as if he saw the moon through the clouds, and all the grievances he had suffered over the years were worth it.
"It's nothing, as long as you can live well, brother can do anything, by the way, didn't my brother-in-law come with you?" Liu Tao's words just fell, and only one voice said: "Brother, I'm here." Liu Tao saw that it was his brother-in-law, the man who caused himself and his sister not to speak for more than ten years.
Liu Tao wanted to count his brother-in-law, only to see that his brother-in-law was holding a child about six or seven years old in his arms, and the child's black jewel-like eyes were blinking, looking at him curiously. After receiving the child from his brother-in-law, a wave of joy instantly surged into his heart.
Liu Juan stepped forward and said to the child, "Baby, don't you call your uncle yet, aren't you clamoring to find your uncle all the way?" The child heard Liu Juan's words and shouted timidly: "Uncle." When Liu Tao heard the child calling him, he hurriedly agreed: "Eh." The child got a response and kept calling his uncle in Liu Tao's arms.
