Zhou's mother suffers from rheumatic heart disease, with perennial swelling and pain in the joints, accompanied by fatigue, palpitation and shortness of breath.

Although Zhou Yao is the conditioning of acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicine for her mother, her mother cannot be tired or even overactive. In case of rainy weather, the pain in the knee joint is lingering, and it cannot be relieved.

Seeing her mother live so hard, Zhou Jin hated to be sick for her mother and share the pain.

Thinking of his mother, Zhou Yao quickly finished writing Zhang Ziqi's medical records and went home to accompany his mother. Zhou walked briskly and arrived home in only five minutes. After her father died, she rented a house in the neighborhood near the hospital in order to facilitate her mother's medical treatment.

"Mom, I'm back", Zhou Yao shouted as soon as he entered the door.

"Mom, I'm back", Zhou Yao hung the bag on the hanger and continued to shout. However, there was no movement at home.

The light in the living room was on, but her mother was not in the living room, Zhou Yao's face changed, and her first reaction was that her mother was breathing hard, couldn't answer, or was unconscious.

Zhou Yao didn't even have time to change his slippers, so he rushed into the bedroom to check. She turned on the bedroom light and found no one in the bedroom.

She looked around the bathroom, kitchen, balcony, etc., but she didn't find her mother.

Although Zhou Yao was relieved, she said to herself suspiciously: "Where did my mother go?"

As soon as the door rang, her mother Han Hongmei pushed the door and came in. A stone in Zhou Yao's heart finally fell to the ground, she ran over, hugged her mother, and said coquettishly: "Mom, where have you been, scared me to death."

Han Hongmei hugged her daughter tightly and replied with a smile: "After I cooked the meal, I saw that you didn't come back from overtime, so I took a turn in the community and did activities."

"Oh, I'm scared to death, Mom, sit down", Zhou Yao helped Han Hongmei to sit on the sofa.

She squatted on the ground and helped her mother press the acupuncture points around her knees, such as Heding, knee eyes, and Zusanli, etc., and Han Hongmei felt that the pain in her knees was relieved a lot.

Zhou Jia instructed Han Hongmei for her mother's massage: "Mom, remember to leave me a note when you go out in the future, otherwise I will be very worried."

"Well, I know", Han Hongmei smiled and stroked Zhou Jin's hair scattered over her shoulders, looking at her daughter lovingly.

Zhou Yao babbled and instructed: "You are home alone, I don't worry, if you feel uncomfortable, call me quickly, don't hide it from me, your heart is not a joke."

Han Hongmei stroked her heart, nodded, and said: "I know, it's good that you can work with peace of mind, and your mother will take care of yourself", and then sighed: "It's your mother who dragged you down, otherwise you can completely focus on work."

Zhou Yao pretended to be angry and said: "Mom, you talk about yourself like this every day, if you say this again, I will go into the study and ignore you."

"Okay, okay, mom doesn't say it, mom doesn't say it", Han Hongmei hurriedly coaxed her daughter.

"Mom, you often say this because you think this way in your heart", Zhou Yao pouted and said. Han Hongmei sighed again and said, "When you reach your mother's age, you will feel like this, it is useless to be old, you are still sick, and you will be a burden."

Zhou Yao understands his mother, but after his father died, he only has his mother as a relative in this world. If my mother is gone, I will live alone in the world.

Therefore, no matter how hard it is, you have to take care of your mother.

Zhou Jin threw herself into her mother's arms, crying and said: "Mom, there is only my mother in this world, so my mother must accompany her well, and don't let her live alone, okay?"

"Okay", Han Hongmei choked up and promised her daughter that she would not be willing to give up her daughter, otherwise, Zhou Yao's father would have died, and she would have followed him into Huangquan a long time ago.

I lived so hard, all because I had to accompany my daughter and depend on her daughter for my life, so I gritted my teeth and insisted on living.

No matter how old the child is, a mother is reluctant to abandon her child!

Wei Mingxia was the same, she looked at the sleeping child and shed tears. She still can't accept her child's illness, and she can't understand why the child she gave birth to has this disease.

The main thing is to resent his own life, and resent why God wants his children to suffer from such a disease.

Zhang Weiguo was so distressed that he took his wife into his arms, Wei Mingxia couldn't hold back anymore and sobbed in Zhang Weiguo's arms. Because the parents and children in the same ward had already slept, she did not dare to cry indulgently, so she could only let the tears flow down like broken threads.

After the tears ran out, Wei Mingxia felt that her depressed mood was relieved a lot, and she slowly fell asleep.

The alarm clock rang again in the morning, Zhou Yao turned over and squinted for a while, and after reciting Zhang Ziqi's medical records last night, he checked many papers on the website, and he didn't realize that it was already midnight.

As a result, Zhou Jin now feels sleep deprived. "When can I sleep recklessly and wake up naturally", Zhou Yao thought extravagantly.

The mobile phone rang, Zhou Yao closed his eyes and touched the phone, put it on his ear, and said weakly, "Hey?"

"Get up quickly, my princess, you're going to be late," came a sweet voice on the other side of the phone, but it was slightly hoarse and tired.

Zhou Yao asked, "You had another overnight operation?"

"Well, I just got off work, and the director ordered me to take a day off today," Sima Shu said tiredly.

For cardiac surgeons, especially young doctors like Sima Shu, rest is a benefit. Even if he is off-duty, Sima Shu will stick to the operating room when his physical strength allows, and be a helper for the director, so that he can learn a lot of things.

Therefore, he will use all the time he can to go to work and study.

Zhou Yao said distressedly: "Then you go home and rest, I'm going to work."

"No, I'll sleep in the dormitory after work and take you to something delicious at noon. I found a delicious and affordable small restaurant and have already made a reservation," says Sima Shu.

Zhou Yao asked him worriedly, "Aren't you tired?"

"I'm tired when I don't see you, I haven't seen you for three days, don't you know that the most bitter thing in the world is lovesickness?"

"Okay, don't be flamboyant, I'm going to be late", Zhou Yao replied to him sweetly, completely sleepy, hung up the phone, threw down the phone, and quickly got dressed.

After Zhou Jia got up, he washed as fast as he could, and then took his bag and shouted: "Mom, I'm leaving, I won't come back for dinner at noon, call me if I have something."

"Okay", Han Hongmei responded in the bedroom.

Mother's heart is not good, Zhou Yao does not allow her mother to get up too early, let alone get up early to make breakfast for herself.

Before the sun shone high, Zhou Yao asked his mother to lie down in the bedroom to preserve her heart and yang, and she could go to the staff canteen and use some porridge, eggs and the like.

Zhou Jia rushed to the staff canteen, and after breakfast, he went to the department slowly and changed into an isolation gown. There are exactly 15 minutes left before going to work, which is Zhou Jin's habit at work.

It is also Director Yao's request to her, since her graduate school, Director Yao has asked her to arrive 15 minutes early, memorize medical records, and read the latest version of the textbook.

Zhou Jin was accustomed to such a work routine, until colleagues came one after another, everyone greeted each other, and Director Yao began the morning meeting after he arrived.
