Chapter Twenty-Four: Shocked to Discover the Swallow's Disappearance

My mother's illness was a severe test for me, and I, who had never experienced much before, panicked. Thinking about whether to call my father from afar for help, but we were afraid that he would be too worried and that he was getting older, so we decided to wait for my mother to be almost good before telling him the news.

After weighing the left and right, my husband and I carefully discussed the division of labor. During the day, my mother has to go for all kinds of treatments, he doesn't have to go to work, he can take my mother to do it in the hospital, and at night my mother needs to wipe her body, get up at night or something, only the nurse on duty at night, a lot of inconvenience, just I came. It's just that I pity my daughter, and she won't see me at night. But this way, I can continue to catch up on the manuscript when I have nothing to do, and I can continue to work during the day. I originally wanted to ask for leave, but now my mother's hospitalization costs money, so I think I can not ask for it.

"Husband, I worked hard for you during the day. "Thinking about the next busy days, my husband has to keep running for his mother, I said.

"It's okay, I'm fine right now anyway. "My husband smiled unnaturally at me.

"I'll come over and help whenever I'm fine. I was a little embarrassed, after all, it was my mother, and I told him later, "Tell me when you're tired, don't force it." ”

"Well, okay, don't worry. "My husband gave me a reassuring look

God.

Opinions were agreed, and my heart settled down. Looking at the patients hanging bottles back and forth in the corridor outside the ward, limping or sitting in a wheelchair on crutches, I thought, since there are hardships in life, then I will face it calmly, and I will definitely be able to overcome the hurdles that others can pass and the mountains that I can climb.

"You wait and go back first, take your daughter home, the hospital is not a good place, it is all patients. "My husband interrupted my thoughts.

His words reminded me that I had been thinking about my mother and had forgotten my daughter who had been sleeping next to my mother.

"Yes, forget Chenchen, she didn't even wear any clothes!" I hurried into the ward, there were a total of three beds placed side by side in the ward, and there were blue curtains hanging between the beds, and my mother's was in the innermost. When I got closer, under the white quilt of about one meter, the grandparents and grandchildren maintained their original posture and did not move, sleeping soundly.

I was hesitating to wake up my daughter, but my husband, who was following behind, took the lead in speaking, "Chenchen, get up." ”

The daughter seemed to hear the voice, did not open her eyes, let go of the hand holding her mother, and lay down with her original sideways, because the bed was too small, and the two of them seemed more crowded.

"By the way, Qiangzi, what should I do if my mother speaks?" I thought of the word "aphasia", and I couldn't help frowning, this is undoubtedly the most painful thing in the future, and not being able to speak means not being able to communicate with us normally.

The husband didn't know what to say for a while, so he was silent for a moment and continued to call his daughter. The daughter's sleep was interrupted, and she reluctantly opened her eyes, her mouth was pouting, and she wanted to cry when she pouted.

"Baby, don't cry, it's in the hospital. I quickly stretched out her hand and made a hug gesture, for fear that my daughter's cry would disturb my mother.

My daughter turned her head to look at her sleeping mother, her eyes were full of tears, she didn't cry, and then she lifted the quilt and threw herself into my arms. I picked her up tightly and wrapped her in my clothes again.

"Chenchen, grandma is sick, you have to be obedient. I told her softly.

"I know, this is the hospital, grandma is going to get an injection, the same as last time. The daughter remembered the last time she had broken her head.

"Yes. I nodded.

"Then grandma, she has to be brave, she can't cry, it hurts a little when she gets the injection. The daughter pointed to the place where the injection was last given, pretending to be very experienced.

"Well, okay, then when Grandma wakes up, you tell her, okay?" I was amused by her serious appearance, and she had been crying a lot.

"Okay. "My daughter seemed to feel that she had a responsibility.

"You go back first, you go back and pack up, and you will clean up for Chenchen, and you will come to accompany you at night. My husband urged.

"Well, good. We'll go now, and I'll take over. After speaking, I looked at my mother lying on the bed, and stared at the numbers on the heartbeat monitor for a while.

From the third floor down to the second floor, and then to the first floor, I can always meet patients and their families up and down, there are old people, children, men, women, if you want to say where is the saddest in the world, just look at these shapes and shapes, the hospital is never a pleasant place, I thought all the way, and the hand holding my daughter tightened tighter.

At the entrance of the hospital, I got on the bus and shook all the way home. Looking at the high-rise buildings and bustling crowds on the streets, as if telling the beauty and prosperity of the world, but now, it is particularly eye-catching, no matter how good the outside, the street is always everyone's street, the high-rise building is always the high-rise of the rich, even the bustling is someone else's figure, related to other people's lives, all this does not belong to me, what does it have to do with me, I just hope that my mother will be good soon.

Thinking of this, the swallow's face came to mind. Since the last time Zeng Yuqiu said that the two were going to get married, this guy was like a firework, which made me happy for a while, and then there was no news, no trace, and I couldn't even smell a smell. How many phone calls have been made, and WeChat has also left messages one by one, but there is no reply. In desperation, I called Zeng Yuqiu's phone, and there was only a ringtone, no follow-up.

Later, I went to the address she gave me, and the doorbell was about to ring, and no one responded.

Is it like two years ago, even if you get married, this is too realistic, it can really be said that "heavy color and light friends" to the extreme, I scolded her more than once in my heart.

"Yanzi, if you have anything in the future, you must tell me, no matter what is good or bad, don't say nothing, let alone suddenly disappear, you are my best friend, and you are the only one, not one, you know? In this world, in addition to parents, husband and children, only you are the dearest, do you understand? If you suddenly disappear, I will be very sad, very sad......" This is the day when I was in Yuhua, I drank some wine with her, and specially instructed her.

She was sitting there with tears in her eyes.

"Don't worry, it won't. You're also my best best friend, no one, the only one. The two of us have eaten and slept together for so many years, and we have long been used to it. Although you guys got married and had children, and they didn't know how to care about individuals, they only knew how to work and take care of their families, and I have complained about you many times in my heart, but when I think about it, you are like this, I accept my fate. Haha...... "Her mouth is so unforgiving."

I smacked her head hard, feigning to be angry.

"I don't care about people so much, you still treat me as a friend, or your best friend, come, I'll see if you're missing roots. "I'm also unceremonious.

"There's no way, who made you so attractive, you see Qiangzi fell under your pomegranate skirt, and Mr. Liu also took a fancy to you, and he didn't dislike you for being a child and his mother!"

"Swallow!" I couldn't help myself and jumped.

"Haha, you can't fight me. She smirked.

"I can't fight you, go back and find someone who can restrain you!" I said hatefully.

"That person hasn't been born yet?" haha!" she laughed even more, her already flushed face even redder.

I had nothing to say, only silence, and my daughter looked at the two of us, secretly covering her mouth and laughing.

I don't know how long it took, she looked at my eyes and became serious, "Xiaolan, you are strong and full of sunshine, I often feel very warm with you, and seeing you will ignite the vitality and passion of life." She paused, didn't wait for me to speak, and continued, "But you just have a soft personality and don't know how to fight, and I've always been worried that you will suffer." If I could, I would like to stay by your side and watch you all the time. ”

Thinking of these words, especially the last sentence, could it be that she had already planned at that time? Still not giving up, I turned on my phone again and sent a WeChat message: "Yanzi, where are you now?"

However, WeChat was swiped by me over and over again, and there was no news, and I completely believed that the swallow had disappeared again.

"You guy......" I couldn't help but muttered to myself.
