Chapter 16: A Surprise Visit
1
The next day, Meng Lianghua also came to Zhao Qingfang for dinner, but was still ruthlessly rejected by her, in the evening, Meng Lianghua came to the ward again, and saw that Zhao Qingfang was just cleaning up the table that had just finished eating for Zhao's mother, so Meng Lianghua hurriedly helped clean up together, and Zhao Qingfang immediately snatched the dishes and chopsticks, and looked at Meng Lianghua with cold eyes and said, "No need." ”
Although Zhao Qingfang had been polite to Meng Lianghua before, in the past two days, Meng Lianghua obviously felt that these polite refusals were strange and cold that he had never felt before, and he felt like he was suddenly going from a familiar person to a stranger.
The next few days were still like this, Meng Lianghua went to Zhao Qingfang Unless he was talking about his illness, Zhao Qingfang was in a perfunctory and ignorant state, without the friendliness and enthusiasm he had when he first came, such a big change in attitude, which made Meng Lianghua, who was inexperienced, puzzled, and Meng Lianghua was also very distressed.
Meng Lianghua's mood also became not right with Zhao Qingfang's attitude, these Liang Bo saw it in his eyes, although everyone didn't say it, but Meng Lianghua and Liang Bo could vaguely feel that Zhao Qingfang's attitude changed sharply because of the last chance encounter with Liang Bo, Liang Bo was also deeply sorry for this, and all he could do now was to try to save this embarrassing situation.
Liang Bo can't talk to Zhao Qingfang directly, so he can only find Ni Nan to seek appropriate countermeasures, which will not hurt Zhao Qingfang's self-esteem and save the friendly relationship between the two. In the end, Ni Nan got along, and the most suitable method at that time was to face the root of the problem.

January 8th happened to be the weekend, Ni Nan came downstairs after the afternoon lunch break according to the pre-arranged hospital, and went to the small store to buy a fruit basket, a bouquet of flowers and a box of nutritional gift boxes to the doctor duty room of the gastrointestinal surgery department.
Everything was as Ni Nan planned, without greeting Zhao Qingfang in advance, he directly brought something and called Meng Lianghua, and Meng Lianghua and Liang Bo came from the duty room of the hospital to the ward without taking off their white coats.
At this time, it happened to be around 3 o'clock in the afternoon, and Zhao Qingfang, who was still in the slightest situation in the ward at this time, happened to be napping in front of the bed while the nurse was hanging up the drip, Meng Lianghua saw that Zhao Qingfang was sleeping, and tiptoed to the bed.
Zhao Qingfang slept very deeply, and she didn't notice that there were guests visiting the ward, and continued her sweet dream, but although Zhao's mother was wearing a hanging bottle, she was also half-squinting and sleepy, but after Meng Lianghua came in, she woke up immediately.
Zhao's mother's hospitalization time for a course of chemotherapy is generally about 1 week, although she should be discharged from the hospital in two days, but Zhao's mother's mental state is obviously not very good due to the effect of chemotherapy drugs in these days, and she is getting thinner and thinner.
Mother Zhao looked at a young doctor and a young girl who came in with Meng Lianghua carrying all kinds of gifts, and at first they came to see the patient, at first Mother Zhao didn't care much, thinking that it was a relative of the patient next to her, so she quickly whispered: "Xiao Meng, you are here!"
"Auntie, how is it today?" Meng Lianghua asked in a low voice.
"It's good. ”
It's just that Zhao's mother slowly found that the two people with gifts were walking with Meng Lianghua and leaning on their hospital beds getting closer and closer, which was obviously to see her posture, because there would be no patients in the past, which made Zhao's mother puzzled, and she didn't wait for Zhao's mother to ask about the situation.
Ni Nan took the initiative to shout: "Hello, Auntie!"
Mother Zhao was a little overwhelmed by the sudden visitor, Meng Lianghua just wanted to explain, but Zhao Qingfang, who was sleeping on the side, was woken up by Mother Zhao for some reason.
Zhao Qingfang opened her glasses sleepily and was a little stunned to see that so many people suddenly appeared in front of her, and there were also Ni Nan and Liang Bo in this group, Zhao Qingfang rubbed her eyes a few times with her hand to confirm the authenticity of what she saw in front of her.
"You... Why are you here?" Zhao Qingfang asked with a confused expression.
"Hehe... Qingfang, I'm resting!" Ni Nan originally wanted to surprise Zhao Qingfang, but he didn't expect Zhao Qingfang to sleep, and Ni Nan was a little embarrassed about his inappropriate behavior, and said with an embarrassed smile.
"Hmm. The nurse just got on the needle and lay down for a while, but I didn't expect you to come so coincidentally. Zhao Qingfang explained confusedly.
"Oh. Hehe... Ni Nan said with a smile, "It's not early to hear Liang Bo say that Auntie has come to the hospital, and I haven't had time to come, I'm really embarrassed." Isn't this the weekend today, so I took Liang Bo to see my aunt. ”
"Oh... I forgot that today is the weekend!" Zhao Qingfang asked with a confused face, "How do you know that my mother is hospitalized here?"
After saying that, Zhao Qingfang also felt that she was so stupid! Obviously, people had already said it, so Zhao Qingfang hurriedly asked herself and replied, "Oh... I'm sorry! You just said that Liang Bo said it. I'm so embarrassed! I'm not awake yet, I'm a little confused. ”
"Hehe... It's okay! We are embarrassed to visit suddenly. Ni Nan replied with a smile, "You've been working hard lately, you're too tired." ”
"Yes!" Meng Lianghua hurriedly explained for Zhao Qingfang on the side, "Qingfang has been really tired in the hospital these days, and she has been taking care of her aunt alone in the hospital all the time. ”
Zhao's mother saw that everyone was chatting quite happily, but she didn't know the relationship between everyone, so she asked Zhao Qingfang in a low voice, "Are these two your friends?"
"They... When Zhao Qingfang raised her head and was about to introduce Ni Nan, she suddenly paused, of course she was thinking about how to introduce the relationship between the two of them and her relationship with herself to her mother.

Meng Lianghua saw that Zhao Qingfang was a little hesitant, so he took the initiative to introduce Zhao's mother: "Auntie, this is my graduate classmate, also a doctor in our hospital, and also Zhao Qingfang's high school classmate. ”
"This is his girlfriend. Meng Lianghua continued.
"Oh, it's Xiaofang's classmate!" Zhao's mother said amiably.
"That's right, Auntie, my name is Ni Nan, and I am actually Qingfang's high school classmate, and the three of us are classmates. Ni Nan has a unique self-confidence as a teacher, and he also took the initiative to introduce himself, and then grabbed Liang Bo's arm and hinted that Liang Bo spoke.
"Hehe... Yes, Auntie, we were all high school classmates. Liang Bo replied politely.
"It's all classmates!" Zhao's mother replied with a smile, "Your classmates are really good, and you came to see me, thank you!"
"Xiaofang, why are you still standing stupidly, go get a stool and come out for your classmates to sit down. Mother Zhao hurriedly greeted, although she looked very weak, but Mother Zhao's enthusiasm did not diminish at all.
Zhao Qingfang has not been in a state for what has just happened, mainly because she has not eased up, and after being reminded by her mother, she found that everyone was indeed standing in front of the hospital bed, so Zhao Qingfang hurriedly dragged out the stool placed under the hospital bed, and walked to the next hospital bed to borrow a stool.
After Ni Nan saw that Zhao Qingfang was busy, he hurriedly grabbed Zhao Qingfang and said, "Qingfang, don't be busy, we just came to see Auntie, and we will leave immediately, don't be so polite." ”
"You see, our wards are also limited, and there are only two stools, so you can sit on the bed if you don't mind. Zhao's mother said apologetically.
"It's all right, Auntie, let's just stand. Ni Nan replied with a smile, "You are so polite, we originally came to see you, but we came to make trouble with you, how embarrassed." ”
"You kid, you can really talk. Mother Zhao smiled and said, "What are you doing?"
"Oh, Auntie, I'm a middle school teacher. ”
"No wonder I'm so good at talking, it's a teacher! Zhao's mother said, "I haven't heard Xiaofang talk about you before, but now that we know each other, I will often come to our house with Xiaomeng for dinner when I have time in the future!"
"Well, okay. Ni Nan replied with a standard smile that showed eight teeth, "If we have a chance, we must try Auntie's craftsmanship."
Ni Nan didn't squeak when he saw that the two men were standing aside, and after coughing to relieve the embarrassing atmosphere, he continued to talk and asked with a smile, "Auntie, are you better now?"
"It's good. Zhao's mother said, "These days, thanks to Xiao Meng's care, everything is fine." ”
"Auntie, you are too polite, and I didn't help much. Meng Lianghua hurriedly replied.
"Hehe... Meng Lianghua is very good and very good at taking care of people. Ni Nan lost no time in praising Meng Lianghua.
"Yes! Xiao Meng is really good. Mother Zhao also echoed Ni Nan, but she didn't know what to talk about after speaking.
After a pause for a few seconds, he said to Zhao Qingfang, who had not spoken: "Xiaofang, you go and get the fruit out for your classmates to eat!"
Mother Zhao continued, "Look at this child, today he suddenly doesn't like to talk, and he stands stunned. ”
"Oh. Zhao Qingfang was actually ashamed of the eloquent and very decent Ni Nan in front of her, and she had been observing everyone's movements, and when she heard her mother's reminder, she hurriedly took the fruit again.
Seeing this, Ni Nan hurriedly stopped Zhao Qingfang and said, "Don't be busy, we have just finished eating, and we are not hungry at all." ”
"It's okay, eat some bananas, it's good for digestion. Zhao Qingfang said.
"No, we don't really eat it. Liang Bo also rarely replied on the side.
Meng Lianghua looked at Liang Bo and Ni Nan who shouldn't be able to eat fruits, so he said: "Qingfang, forget it, it is estimated that they won't eat it either, so there is no need to take it." ”
"yes! Ni Nan looked at Liang Bo, glanced at each other, and said, "Auntie, we are relieved to know that you are okay, or we will leave first and not disturb your rest." ”
"Oh, I'm leaving!" Zhao's mother said politely, "I'm really sorry, I didn't greet you well, there is really no place to sit here, I am discharged from the hospital, I must come to my aunt's house for a meal." ”
"Good Lat!" Ni Nan replied with a smile, "Auntie, Qingfang, let's go." ”
"Auntie, have a good rest. Liang Bo also said goodbye politely.
After speaking, he and Ni Nan prepared to leave together.
"Auntie, I'll send them off. Meng Lianghua said to Zhao's mother.
"Well, okay. After Zhao's mother finished speaking, she looked at Zhao Qingfang, "Xiaofang, you and Xiao Meng will send off their classmates together." ”
"No, Auntie! After Ni Nan finished speaking, he looked at Meng Lianghua with strange eyes, and said in a low voice, "Don't send us away, accompany Qingfang here!"
"Hmm. Meng Lianghua said understandingly.
Zhao Qingfang followed behind Ni Nan, and Ni Nan hurriedly stopped: "Qingfang, you really don't need to send it, you can chat with Meng Lianghua." ”
"Come, I'll send you out!" Zhao Qingfang said.
After speaking, he didn't forget to say to Meng Lianghua, "You can go back together!"
"It's okay for me to go back, I'll accompany my aunt here!" Meng Lianghua replied with a smile.
"No, you're busy. Zhao Qingfang insisted.
"Qingfang, Lao Meng is fine in the afternoon anyway, so I'll stay and chat with my aunt and pass the time of my aunt, it's not good. Ni Nan hurriedly relieved the siege and said, "You don't have to send it, we know the road." ”
Seeing this, Zhao Qingfang didn't insist on Meng Lianghua's departure, but continued to send Ni Nan and Liang Bo out.
