Zhou He just stood like that, and after an interval of dozens of seconds, he said lightly: "Faint and find a doctor, I'm not a doctor." ”

After she finished speaking, she didn't wait for Tan Ziran over there to speak, and hung up the phone directly. returned the phone to Xu Yuanning.

There was a moment of silence in the huge office, Zhou He paused, and then took Xu Yuanning to talk about the decoration.

Xu Yuanning listened, and only after she finished saying did he say, "Ahe, I'll go and have a look with you." ”

Zhou He shook his head, lowered his eyes, and said, "I won't go, I'll have to go to the building materials market later." ”

The look on her face was as normal as usual, and she didn't see anything unusual. But at the moment she just said, her thinking was a little confused.

Xu Yuanning didn't insist anymore, and said softly: "Then you go to the building materials market." I'll go take a look and come back and tell you. ”

Zhou He lowered his head and said hello.

Xu Yuanning quickly went to the hospital, and Zhou He stopped at the bus station for a while before taking the bus to the building materials market.

It was almost seven o'clock when he came back, and Zhou He didn't go home, still busy in the office. Hearing the sound of footsteps, he straightened up, nodded to Xu Yuanning, and said, "Senior brother is back." ”

Xu Yuanning brought takeaway, found a waste newspaper and came out to spread it, and beckoned her to eat.

Zhou He walked over and sat down on the ladder beside him. I ate it silently. She ate more slowly than before, and when she was almost done, Xu Yuanning said, "Ahe, go over and have a look." Professor Ren said that it was a tumor in the brain and had to be removed. ”

Zhou He's action of eating paused.

Xu Yuanning continued: "I heard that it was because the tumor compressed the blood vessels and nerves that caused the fainting this time. Surgery, although not particularly major, is certainly dangerous. ”

Zhou He just sat and didn't move. After a long time, I slowly picked up the cold rice.

This decision had to be made by herself, Xu Yuanning didn't speak again, and sat with her silently.

Zhou He didn't speak until he finished eating and cleaned up the garbage, then he smiled reluctantly and said to Xu Yuanning, "Senior brother, I'll go back." ”

Xu Yuanning nodded and said, "I'll send you." ”

"No, you should go back and rest early. I'll just go back myself. Zhou He said.

Xu Yuanning didn't insist anymore, and at the moment she turned around, she said softly: "Ahe, it doesn't matter what others think or say. You make a good decision and don't regret it. ”

Zhou He's footsteps paused, his body stiffened, he didn't speak, and gradually walked away.

She didn't get in the car, she just walked slowly. The mind was empty, like it was full of things, and it looked like there was nothing.

When she got home, it was close to ten o'clock, and Aunt Qi was standing outside. Look at the time from time to time.

Seeing Zhou He come back, a smile appeared on her face, and she said, "Are you busy? Are you hungry? Why did you come back so late today?"

Zhou He came back to his senses, squeezed out a smile, and said, "I'm a little busy, I'm not hungry, I've already eaten." She then said, "Why haven't you slept yet?"

Aunt Qi held her slightly cool hand and said, "You came back quite early a few days ago, and the phone couldn't get through tonight, so I couldn't sleep and come out to see." ”

Yes, her phone was turned off in the afternoon.

"I forgot to call you. Don't wait outside in the future, the temperature difference between day and night is large, don't catch a cold. Zhou He said softly.

Although she said that she had eaten, Aunt Qi still went to the kitchen to cook a bowl of wine-stuffed balls for her. The balls are soft and glutinous, and the whole body is warm after eating two bites.

Zhou He didn't know what he thought of, and was slightly stunned.

Aunt Qi was sitting on the side, and when she saw her movements stopped, she asked worriedly, "What's wrong?"

Zhou He hurriedly shook his head and said, "Not much." I suddenly felt so warm. It's nice to have you here. ”

Her eyes were slightly moist, and she blinked vigorously.

Aunt Qi smiled slightly and said, "What's wrong with your kid today, haven't I been here all the time?"

Zhou He squeezed out a smile and nodded vigorously.

When she ate the wine-stuffed balls, she refused to go upstairs again. hugged Aunt Qi's arm and coquettishly wanted to sleep with Aunt Qi.

The two hadn't slept together for a long time, and Aunt Qi smiled and agreed. He also signaled her to be quiet, not to wake up Qi Jingran, who was asleep.

Aunt Qi's room is neat and tidy, and there is a faint fragrance on the quilt. Aunt Qi folded the quilt on the side for Zhou He, then lay down and asked gently, "What's wrong today?"

Zhou He shook his head and said, "Not much." I suddenly want to sleep with you. ”

Aunt Qi gently patted the quilt like coaxing a child, and said, "Then go to sleep, I'm tired all day." ”

Zhou He snorted. She thought she wouldn't be able to sleep, but she closed her eyes and fell asleep shortly after. Qi Yun heard her breathing evenly, and pressed the quilt on the edge for her, and then closed her eyes.

Zhou He slept a little too much the next day, and when he got up, Qi Jingran had already gotten up. Breakfast was already made for her to keep, but Aunt Qi didn't know where she went.

Qi Jingran was watching TV, Zhou He washed up and came out to eat breakfast and clean up, and then asked, "Is Aunt Qi out?"

"I went grocery shopping. Qi Jingran's tone was cold and indifferent.

Her flat belly was gradually bulging, and her slightly tighter clothes could no longer cover it.

She rarely spoke, and sometimes she would not answer even a few questions.

It was rare for her to be willing to speak, Zhou He paused for a moment, and said, "The air is good in the morning, I will go out for a walk with you?" The doctor said that you should move around more after five months. ”

Qi Jingran didn't speak, got up and turned off the TV.

There was nowhere to go here, so Zhou He took her to walk outside the alley. is surrounded by neighbors, and Qi Jingran's stomach can't be hidden. Someone will cast an inquiring gaze when he speaks, Zhou He is afraid that Qi Jingran will be uncomfortable, but she is like no one. It is not hidden.

Zhou He was a little relieved, there were fruit farmers at the intersection who picked fresh peaches and pears to buy, and when she saw Qi Jingran watching, she walked over and bought a few catties.

When the fruit farmer was still weighing, her mobile phone rang, she took it out, and the phone was the unfamiliar number yesterday, which should have been made by Tan Ziran. She didn't answer and hung up.

When he paid the money and carried the pears to Qi Jingran's side, Qi Jingran suddenly said: "If you have something to do, go and get busy, I can go back by myself." ”

Zhou He didn't raise his head and said, "It's okay." ”

For the rest of the day, neither of them spoke again. After walking around, I just walked back, and I saw Aunt Qi carrying a lot of vegetables and appearing at the entrance of the alley.

Zhou He hurriedly stepped forward, took the vegetables in her hand, and asked, "Why do you buy so many dishes?"

Aunt Qi didn't buy a lot of vegetables, but there were many kinds of dishes. Zhou He looked a little puzzled.

Aunt Qi smiled, but she didn't hide it from her, and said, "You have been busy these days, and I forgot to tell you." I've been cooking private food at home as your senior brother said last time, and it's been half a month. It opened twice a few days ago, and today another guest booked a table. ”

This was something Zhou He didn't expect at all, and she asked blankly, "When did you start preparing?"

Aunt Qi has been preparing for a long time, but she knows that this private dish is not so easy to open, and besides, their location is remote, and it is useless to go out with a signboard, so she has never told Zhou He.

At first, I just made some braised pork dishes every day, cut them into small pieces, put them in a bento box, and took them out for people to taste. A small card was printed and sent together.

But it wasn't easy, and there were no customers for two weeks. A few days ago, a guest came to his house and wanted to eat authentic local food, so he called and booked a table.

Aunt Qi's craftsmanship is undoubted, and the price is not expensive, and the guest introduced the guest. That's the real opening.

The yard is small, and the house is not big. I was afraid that it would affect Qi Jingran's rest, so she only made one table every day. In addition to getting up early and getting tired when buying groceries, there is a lot of profit from each table. It's higher than a short-term rental house.

Aunt Qi said it simply, not that it was not easy. Although Zhou He felt sorry for her, he didn't ask questions, and asked her to call herself when there were guests in the future, and she went to buy vegetables.

Aunt Qi responded with a smile. The three of them slowly returned to the courtyard.

As soon as I arrived in the yard, there was a whining vibration sound from the mobile phone. There's a text message coming in. Zhou Ji didn't go to see it right away, waited until he put the food in the refrigerator, and went outside to see it.

The text message was still sent by Tan Ziran, telling her that the doctor asked her to perform the operation as soon as possible, and the operation time had been scheduled for the day after tomorrow.

Zhou He held the mobile phone and stood for a long time, until Aunt Qi called her inside, and she came back to her senses.

Zhou He came in the evening, and Ren Yurong lived in the VIP ward, and the corridor was very quiet. Most of the people in Kyoto were not notified, except for Tan Ziran and Aunt Yi, there was no one.

Tan Ziran is a pampered eldest lady who has never been through anything. In the past two days, my eyes have been swollen like walnuts from crying.

Professor Ren lacked nothing, and Zhou He came empty-handed.

The aunt didn't know Zhou He, and when she saw her appear at the door, she called Tan Ziran: "Madam, someone is here." ”

Tan Ziran was sorting out things, raised his head and saw Zhou He, put down the things in his hand and walked out quickly, reluctantly squeezed out a smile, and said, "Ahe, you are here." ”

Zhou He nodded and looked into the ward.

Ren Yurong lay motionless, as if asleep. She was slightly distracted. Whether it is Ren Yurong or Li Ying, she has very few memories of happiness. For as long as she can remember, the family has been cold for a long time, they are all busy, and most of the time only she and the old grandmother stay at home.

Both were born into large families and never disdained shrew-like quarrels. Most of the time it was in the Cold War. Such a cold war is much more terrible than quarrels. She has a sensitive personality, and whenever she sees the cold looks on the faces of the two, she always subconsciously hides behind the old grandma.

No one will come to hug her, and occasionally Li Ying will be in a bad mood, and will scold her for not being generous enough to cower, unlike her daughter.

As for Ren Yurong, what Zhou He remembers the most is that he came and went in a hurry. Even though she goes home every day, she doesn't see much of it. In the morning she got up and he was gone, and when he came back in the evening she was already asleep.

There was a time when she got up early with the old grandmother in order to see him, and waited for him to get up in the living room. But he could only look at him. He rarely noticed her, and went downstairs in a hurry. Sometimes when I noticed her, I would only ask why I got up so early and left in a hurry.

She and Li Ying didn't have anything to say, and after standing for a while, Li Ying said cautiously: "Come in and sit for a while." ”

Zhou He didn't go in, just stood outside the door and said, "I'm just outside, tell me what needs to be done." ”

As she spoke, she sat down in the seat next to her.

The aunt poured a glass of water and came out, and she took it and said thank you.

Tan Ziran urgently needed someone to share it for her, so she asked her aunt to guard inside, and she also sat down on the chair outside. said: "The doctor said that the success rate is very high, and it will be fine." ”

It's not so much telling Zhou He, it's better to say that she is comforting herself.

Zhou He nodded silently.

Tan Ziran suddenly covered his face with his hands and fell on his knees, burst into tears, choked up and said, "But Ahe, I'm still very scared." I'm going to call my mom and dad, but your dad won't allow it and doesn't want them to worry. How can I fight alone?"

She was like a child, and if she hadn't been quiet, she would have been crying.

Zhou He couldn't find any words to comfort, so he was silent for a moment and said, "I come here every day, and you can tell me if there is anything I need to do." ”

Tan Ziran nodded, still choked up. She was probably uncomfortable in front of Zhou He, so she quickly stood up and said, "I'll go to the bathroom." ”

She didn't go back to the room, and hurried to the other end of the hallway.

As soon as she left, the aunt inside opened the door and came out. Gently closing the door, he said, "My wife is pregnant, and she is easily excited. Persuade a little. ”

Although she didn't know Zhou He, Tan Ziran had made two phone calls in the past few days, and she had guessed somewhat.

This is what Zhou He didn't expect, her body stiffened, and she nodded after a long time. She didn't know what she was thinking in her head, so she just sat like that, and it wasn't until Tan Ziran came back that she came back to her senses.

Probably because of what the aunt said, she subconsciously looked at Tan Ziran's abdomen. The month is still shallow, and her stomach is still flat. It's just that the high heels used to be replaced by flat shoes, and there is no more makeup. She hadn't even noticed it at all.

Tan Ziran had already sorted out her emotions, but her eyes still looked red. I can see that I must have cried again just now.

She has been walking here while she is pregnant, and Zhou He stayed for a while, so he asked her to go back to rest, saying that she would guard here.

Tan Ziran didn't agree, squeezed out a smile, and asked Zhou He to go back to rest. Ren Yurong didn't sleep for long, and he couldn't wake up for a while.

In the end, the aunt went back to rest, Tan Ziran slept on another bed in the room, and Zhou He sat on the side.

The smell of disinfectant water in the hospital made her panic, Tan Ziran on the bed fell asleep, she opened the door, walked outside and sat down.

Ren Yurong slept until the morning before waking up, and when the doctor came to check the ward, the aunt brought breakfast over, and asked Zhou He to eat Zhou He didn't eat, saying that he would come back later. She didn't talk to Ren Yurong and left directly.

She lied to Aunt Qi last night, saying that she had work to do, and she rested in Xu Yuanning's apartment at night and didn't go back.

When she left the hospital, she went to ask the doctor, and the doctor said something strange to Xu Yuanning, and the success rate was very high, but it was difficult to guarantee that it would be dangerous. The person who performed this surgery was not from the hospital, but from the specialists in Kyoto, and the success rate was higher.

After getting out of the car, Zhou merged and did not immediately meet in the yard. She sat down at the bus stop until the golden sunlight shone on her body, she squinted and looked at it, and then slowly returned home.

Aunt Qi didn't drink Qi Jingran, I don't know where I went. But I left her breakfast. Zhou Ji didn't call, ate breakfast, cleaned up the kitchen, and went back to his room to sleep.

Xu Yuanning probably went to the hospital, and he soon found out about her past. I called in the afternoon and asked if she was still there?

Tomorrow is going to be an operation, and this night is going to be a difficult night. Zhou He said that the party would pass.

Aunt Qi didn't know anything yet, she would be suspicious when she was outside so continuously, so Xu Yuanning said that he would come to pick her up later.

Zhou He did not refuse, but responded.

It was evening when Xu Yuanning came over, and Zhou He and they had just eaten. Aunt Qi asked him to eat, he smiled and said that he had already eaten, he had a lot of things to do in the past few days, and he wanted Zhou He to go over and help do something.

Aunt Qi didn't think much about it, and said that she would make them something to eat when she was free.

Xu Yuanning smiled and agreed, and said hello to Qi Jingran on the side, and then went outside with Zhou He.

He came by bicycle, and when he got to the side of the car, he gave Zhou Yiyi a helmet for her to bring. When the two of them passed, Ren Yurong was doing a preoperative examination, and he seemed to be in good spirits, and occasionally asked the doctor in a low voice.

Xu Yuanning went up to greet him, while Zhou He stopped and stood aside.

Even so, Ren Yurong is also rare and pleasant. Although he didn't inform Kyoto about his illness, the teacher at the school who had a better relationship knew about it and sent a lot of fruit baskets. He arranged for his aunt to peel fruit for Zhou He and Xu Yuanning.

Knowing that he and Zhou He had something to say, Xu Yuanning stayed in the ward for a while and went out. Leave the space to them.

Zhou He couldn't find anything to say, and sat on the side decently.

Ren Yurong couldn't find anything to say, probably because he was going to have surgery, which was much milder than usual. After a pause, he said bitterly: "I'm sorry, I really didn't fulfill my responsibilities as a father. ”

It's pointless to say this now, Zhou He didn't look up, and said, "You have a good rest, I'll go out and have a look." ”

She didn't stay in the ward long, and got up and left the room after speaking.

The corridor outside was very quiet, Xu Yuanning was not there, only the aunt was standing outside. Zhou He went out and said she was going to buy something.

The aunt knew what she meant, and got up and went into the ward.

Zhou He originally planned to go down to buy something for Ren Yurong, but after asking the doctor, he learned that he needed to fast before the operation and couldn't eat.

She stood for a while, then went down and bought some fresh fruit to bring with her.

As soon as he got out of the elevator, he saw Cheng Wei and people coming out of Ren Yurong's ward. Tan Ziran came back and sent them out.

At this time, it was too late to avoid it, and Zhou He's pace slowed down. The body froze instantly. I don't know if Cheng Wei already knows her relationship with Ren Yurong, or if it was just a chance encounter, after letting Tan Ziran stay, it was as if he didn't know her at all, and his eyes didn't sweep over her body, and he quickly passed by her.

When he entered the elevator, Tan Ziran said: "That one just now is Mr. Cheng, your father doesn't want to alarm the family, this time I invited an expert to come over for surgery thanks to his help." ”

Tan Ziran's tone was full of gratitude.

Zhou He didn't speak, just nodded.

She didn't speak, Tan Ziran didn't continue, and when she saw that she bought fruit, she said that she didn't have to break the bank, and the fruits in the fruit basket had not been touched.

Zhou He didn't speak.

Xu Yuanning didn't know what to do, and he hadn't come back yet. Zhou He gave the fruit to Tan Ziran, did not go into the ward, and sat down outside.

Thinking of what Tan Ziran said just now, she couldn't help but feel a little distracted.

In a short period of time, Cheng Wei became familiar with Ren Yurong, and also found an expert for him to operate. In other words, he should have known about Ren Yurong fainting and being sent to the hospital as soon as possible.

As an outsider, he can know so timely, which can only show that he has been paying attention to Ren Yurong's family. Zhou He subconsciously pursed his lips.

It wasn't until later that after Ren Yurong fell asleep, she pretended to ask Tan Ziran casually: "That Mr. Cheng, how can you know...... Professor Ren is hospitalized?"

Tan Ziran didn't expect her to ask this question, so she was stunned for a moment and said, "I accidentally called your father's phone when I called the driver that day. Your dad was still in the hospital with his help. ”

Zhou He breathed a sigh of relief, nodded, didn't speak anymore, and didn't know what he was thinking. Tan Ziran called her twice, and she came back to her senses.

This time, Tan Ziran obviously has a good impression of Cheng Wei. Zhou He took the initiative to mention this topic, and she talked about Cheng Wei's young and promising future. He also said that his business is not only in Yucheng, but will gradually develop in Kyoto. and said that Cheng Wei is ambitious, maybe he can take the market in Kyoto.

Where would she know these things, eighty percent of these things were told by Ren Yurong and her.

Zhou He was a little distracted inexplicably, and nodded after a while.

Before Zhou He and Tan Ziran entered the ward, the people who followed Cheng Wei before came over with two exquisite antique food boxes. Said politely: "Mrs. Ren, Mr. Cheng asked me to bring you some food, stay up late at night and work hard." ”

He was clearly thoughtful and attentive.
