Chapter 33: Willing to undergo surgery

In the hospital ward, my dad and my mom were talking to the old man, and to my surprise, Su Yi was also there.

When my dad saw me coming, he beckoned me to go out and talk, but Su Yi didn't look at me from beginning to end, obviously not very welcoming to my arrival.

At first, I saw Su Yi and the old man chatting happily, Su Yi also covered her mouth and laughed from time to time, which is also something I have never seen such Su Yi, at least she is not as cold to my family as she is to others, so high-minded.

But when she heard my voice, her expression became unusually cold again, making it difficult to get close.

I think it may be because I beat Liang Yiwei and lost his temper with her last night, which made her unhappy.

However, my stinky temper sometimes annoys me, and I can't control my emotions when I get angry.

It's normal for her to have emotions for me now, but this chick's temper is always fickle and unpredictable.

Sometimes I can play with you like a child, and sometimes I can play like a statue, so cold that you feel like you can't get close to this person at all.

In the hallway of the smoking area, our father and son each picked up a cigarette, and he took a big puff, and a quarter of the cigarette had already been burned, and my cigarette had just begun to ignite.

My mind flashed through it, and it was a scene that was both familiar and unfamiliar. A month ago, I rushed back to Yangjiang after learning that the old man was critically ill, and we were in the same situation that night.

"What the doctor said. ”

"The results of the examination are basically out, and Dr. Liang and the attending doctor before the old man have said that the old man is too old now and should not do chemotherapy, for fear that the side effects will be too great after chemotherapy, and that he will be too painful........."

"Isn't that Liang Yiwei useless bullshit!" I interrupted my dad.

"Can you listen to me finish. ”

"Okay, you say. ”

Dr. Leung said surgery was an option...... Because he said that when he was in the United States, he had met a patient with terminal cancer who had been cured by surgery, and the doctors there predicted that the patient would live for up to three years after being cured, but the patient lived for five years......... If Dr. Liang can really heal the old man, I think it would be a great thing......"

"But it's not that simple. ”

"Yes, there are risks associated with this surgery, and the success rate is only 30%... And the premise is that if the cancer spreads throughout the body, the surgery will not be possible......"

I'm silent...... My dad was silent too......

In our silence, I had smoked many cigarettes in a row, and my throat was already retching.

"Smoke less, this cigarette is not a good thing, you are still young and think it's nothing, when the time comes, you can't find the tone to cry. ”

"I know, aren't you too? ”

"When the old man is done, I'm going to quit smoking. ”

I don't want to delve into the issue of smoking or quitting smoking, after all, once you get addicted to smoking, it's not just as simple as words.

However, based on the current physical condition of the old man, my father said that he would quit smoking, which is still very credible......

"Does the old man know about this now?" I pulled back to the topic, wondering what the old man thought about the operation.

"I don't know what to tell him yet. ”

"But I'll have to listen to him on this matter. ”

"Of course, I know that no matter what he thinks at that time, those of us who are juniors must respect it............ He has also lived for decades, and he has never seen any strong winds and waves............ There are some things that he can see better than us, and no matter what the outcome is, you should not be too sad in front of him, just be natural, just like usual............ When we are happy, he is happy. Got it?"

I nodded heavily to him, and when I wanted to smoke another cigarette, my dad's words just now came to my mind again, and I subconsciously took back the hand that touched the cigarette.

"Then when are you going to tell the old man about this, you can't delay it any longer. ”

"That's why I called you to the hospital......... The old man listens to what you say, it's better for you to go and talk to him, no matter what he says or what he wants to do, don't force him,,,, let him choose for himself. ”

"I know that, I'll talk to the old man now. ”

"Wait, do you think Dr. Liang can be trusted if he has surgery?"

"Trustworthy. ”

Although I don't have much interest in Liang Yiwei, I still believe in Su Yi, and I believe that the doctors she recommended to me should not be bad.

When I returned to the ward, Su Yi was already gone, although I don't know why she came to accompany the old man today, but I am still very grateful that she can do so many things for me, at least this kindness is difficult for me to express in words.

I walked to the ward and sat next to the old man, and my father beckoned my mother out from the door, so that I could talk to the old man alone.

"How did it feel for the past two days. I opened my mouth first.

"It's all right, it's just a little stuffy to stay in the ward all day, or you can take me out to bask in the sun. ”

"Good. "I think it's better to go out and talk about these things than to talk about them in the hospital room.

After dressing the old man, I tied his scarf and hat for him, asked the hospital to borrow a wheelchair, and pushed him outside the hospital.

"Why have I always seen you come to see me alone lately, but I haven't seen you and Zhenzhen come together. ”

"She's too busy at work, so ...... So ......"

My words were in my throat, and I didn't know how to explain it to the old man.

The old man turned his head to look at me and sighed.

"There are some things that I can guess a little bit even if you don't say it. ”

I didn't speak, and I didn't dare to look him directly at him, for fear that he would see something in me. It wasn't until he stopped looking at me that I dared to turn my head around.

The cold wind swept slightly, and the old man's thin body, pale hair, and purple and blackened skin had already left heavy traces of age.

The old man's body is getting worse day by day, and now my biggest wish is to hope that he can live happily and happily every day, and I don't want him to worry about my anymore.

"Why don't you speak, what do you think?" the old man's tone was still so calm.

"I was thinking, wait for you. Like when I was younger, we went out to sea to fish, to climb mountains, to ......."

Before I could finish my sentence, the old man was already laughing.

"What are you laughing at?"

"Alas, I have been a fisherman for most of my life since I was 16 years old and have been a fisherman for most of my life. I think I haven't been back to Moon Bay for more than ten years, and I don't know what has become of Moon Bay over the years, and I really want to go back and see. ”

The old man let out a long sigh after speaking.

"When you're done with the operation and you're well, I'll go back to Moon Bay with you, okay?"

The old man shook his head and said:

"I want to go back now...... Seriously, I know my own body. I've heard everything Dr. Liang said to your parents, but I don't think there's any need to have surgery, and you don't need to persuade me anything, I think it's fine now.........

I've been living for 80 years, and I don't think I have anything to worry about if I live this long. The only thing I can't worry about is your personal problem, I really don't know if I'll ever see you start a family in my lifetime. ”

"Master..."Actually, I don't feel good in my heart, but what can I do, saying that if you start a family, you will become a family, how can it be so simple.

The old man turned back to me and said:

"Am I pushing you too hard?"

I shook my head at him. But I was surprised that he didn't mention Mo Zhenzhen again this time, and just told me what he told me before, did he already know something.

I didn't want to talk about it anymore, so I cut straight to the point and asked him if he would like to have surgery.

"But I want you to do the surgery, okay? We have to trust the doctors. ”

"It's not that I don't want to have surgery, it's just that I've been in the hospital for a long time and can't touch the outside, it's too boring. ”

"That..."

"Accompany me back to Moon Bay in the next two days, and I will have surgery when I return to Yangjiang in two days?"

"Really?" I looked at the old man in disbelief.

"Really ......"

After sending the old man back to the ward, I also told my parents about the conversation with the old man today, at first my parents were still a little worried, and then I promised that I would always keep an eye on the old man during this time in Moon Bay, and they didn't say anything.
