Chapter 31: The Truth of Tribulation

1

It's just that the god of fate doesn't seem to care more for these two suffering couples, but always loves to make things worse, in July, the weather is extremely hot, Zhao's mother has been lying at home and has no energy, and her abdomen is a little uncomfortable in the morning, and it is even more uncomfortable in the afternoon, so she called Zhao Qingfang who was at work, but Zhao Qingfang is not a doctor, and the company is not good at asking for leave temporarily, so she called Zhao's mother to go directly to the hospital to find Meng Lianghua.

Meng Lianghua saw that Zhao's mother's condition was not very good, so he prescribed various checklists for her and took her for examination.

The results of the examination showed that Zhao's mother's abdominal pain was mainly caused by intestinal obstruction, and the condition was much more serious than when she first went to the outpatient clinic, counting Zhao's mother had been undergoing chemotherapy 10 times in the oncology department, plus two times in gastrointestinal surgery had been 12 times, and the cancer cells were under control, but the intestinal obstruction was getting more and more serious.

In a case like Zhao's mother, it can not be delayed any longer, and it needs to be treated symptomatically in time, if other people have intestinal obstruction to this extent, they urgently need to be surgically treated, but considering Zhao's mother's own physical condition, surgery must not be considered, and palliative care is only taken at the suggestion of Dean Li.

And at present, Zhao's mother's condition can no longer withstand chemotherapy drugs, and chemotherapy must be stopped. Although it was palliative care, it still needed to be hospitalized for the treatment of intestinal obstruction, and Dean Li asked Meng Lianghua to admit Zhao's mother to the gastrointestinal surgery.

Zhao's mother needs to undergo enemas and bowel washing every day, and she has started a total fast, which is simply a physical torture for the patient, and it is also a mental torture for the family.

Because Zhao's mother's condition is not controllable at present, the length of hospitalization is not easy to say, Meng Lianghua does not have so much time to take care of Zhao's mother, this hospitalization is not the same as Zhao's mother's cancer surgery and chemotherapy, even if the symptomatic treatment is completed and discharged, there will be someone to take care of at home, it is really hard to say when it is a head, Zhao's mother's family can't count on it, and the consumption of nurses has been quite high, and the time is far away, in desperation, Zhao Qingfang can only learn from the pain and resign directly to take care of Zhao's mother.

And this behavior caused even more resistance to the Meng family's parents, who originally disagreed, and then the two continued to be together, and the Meng family's parents were half-pushed, and now Zhao Qingfang, in order to take care of her sick mother, resigned at a young age, did not work, gave up her future, and had a lot of medical expenses and daily expenses, so they were even more opposed to Meng Lianghua's object.

Meng's mother called one by one to urge Meng Lianghua to break up with Zhao Qingfang quickly, and also mobilized Meng Liangqing, the sister of the Meng family, to persuade her brother, these Zhao Qingfang saw it in her eyes, she could still afford her mother's hospitalization expenses, and she would not use Meng Lianghua's penny, she still had this backbone, after all, Zhao's mother's expenses were still reimbursed, and she was very helpless to resign, but the current situation was helpless and she had to do it as a last resort.

It's just that Meng Lianghua is sandwiched between her and her parents in this way, which makes Zhao Qingfang very uncomfortable, and feels that he owes countless debts to Meng Lianghua in his heart, and occasionally pops up with the idea of breaking up and wants to let go of his hand, and even tentatively asked Meng Lianghua if it is very hard to be with him, and he doesn't want to drag him down, but he was reprimanded back by him, and he also silently helped take care of Zhao's mother by the side, and helped Zhao Qingfang through the most difficult time with practical actions.

One day in August, the weather was as hot as a steamer, there was not a trace of wind in the air, and the trees on the roadside were listless and unmoving. At about 11 o'clock in the afternoon, Zhao Qingfang went to the hospital cafeteria to eat as usual, although it was a few minutes away, the sun also roasted her dizzy.

It's also strange to say that Zhao Qingfang has been out of state today, forgetting to bring a meal card when he goes out, and forgetting to hold chopsticks when he finishes eating. I can't say what's wrong, I always feel like I'm panicking all day today.

All the way to wonder if I haven't slept well lately, I've always lost everything, and just walked to the door of the ward and saw a group of people gathered inside, thinking about my mother's condition getting worse these days, and an ominous premonition filled her mind.

She tried her best to push through the crowd, and sure enough, she was afraid that something would be bad, so she would come. The crowd I just saw and all of them were watching her mother's hospital bed, and there were several doctors and nurses around the bed, Zhao Qingfang hadn't seen which doctors it was, so she saw a nurse pulling out the syringe for her mother, and after a month of treatment, Zhao's mother became more and more thin, and she was almost thin, and Zhao's mother at this time closed her eyes tightly, looking like she was sleeping peacefully, and she didn't have any reaction to the nurse's behavior.

Zhao Qingfang was surprised by the nurse's actions, and at this time Zhao Qingfang saw clearly that it was Meng Lianghua who was standing next to the nurse, and he stood next to him and lowered his head and did not stop the nurse's behavior.

Zhao Qingfang's mind was stunned all of a sudden, but instinctively made her rush out of the crowd, and tried to hinder the nurse, and said loudly, "What are you doing? Isn't my mother still having the injection? Why do you pull it out?"

The nurse did not speak, but continued with her work.

At this time, Meng Lianghua found that Zhao Qingfang had come in, and said in a low voice: "Xiaofang, Auntie has just left." ”

"What do you mean?" Zhao Qingfang asked unwilling to accept what he had just heard.

Meng Lianghua's junior brother who was standing aside saw that Zhao Qingfang was a little excited, and comforted: "Sister-in-law, if you want to open up, your aunt has passed away." ”

"No way, my mom was just asleep. Zhao Qingfang was thrilled by his junior brother's words, and defended even more excitedly.

Meng Lianghua understood Zhao Qingfang's feelings, so he walked up to her, took her hand and said, "Xiaofang, Auntie really just left, she was very peaceful when she left, don't be sad." ”

"No way. Zhao Qingfang shook Meng Lianghua away, tears rolled in her eyes but she sneered, trying to deceive herself, "My mother was still talking to me when I left, and she also told me to bring you food." ”

Slowly, Zhao Qingfang's face sank again, and he said with a crying voice: "Impossible." ”

"Really, she just left a few minutes before you came in. Meng Lianghua hugged Zhao Qingfang and tried to comfort, "Don't be too sad, Auntie is also tired these days, so let her rest completely." ”

In the face of Meng Lianghua's words, Zhao Qingfang had to accept the reality, although the pain suffered by her mother these days is also in her eyes, but people say that it is gone, it is gone. And she is also her dearest person, which Zhao Qingfang can't face at all, she suddenly cried bitterly, and her legs suddenly didn't obey the call and she couldn't stand up.

"What should I do?" Zhao Qingfang was heartbroken.

"Don't worry, everything is with me, rest assured, everything will pass. Meng Lianghua hugged Zhao Qingfang hard.

With Zhao Qingfang's struggle, the male nurses have begun to carry Zhao's mother's body, Zhao Qingfang saw it, she couldn't cry, quickly pulled the bed frame, and shouted: "Don't, Mom!"

Meng Lianghua looked at Zhao Qingfang's hysterical cry, and his heart was also sad, so he said to the male nurse: "Please wait a moment and let her take a look." Thank you!"

Everyone also stopped more sympatheticly, Zhao Qingfang suddenly knelt on the ground with tears in her eyes, but did not speak, but gently touched Zhao's mother's face with her hand, the face that had been thin, tears kept dripping on Zhao's mother's face, and Zhao Qingfang slowly wiped it away.

Zhao Qingfang looked at her mother as if she was usually asleep, thinking that maybe it was the same as Meng Lianghua said, maybe her mother was really peaceful when she left, maybe her mother was deliberately waiting for her to leave when she left, maybe she was afraid that she was too sad.

Slowly, the nurses carried her mother away, and Zhao Qingfang did not chase her out, but sat on the ground in a daze. Meng Lianghua hurriedly helped her up, the crowd slowly dispersed, and the nurses and doctors also left one after another.

Meng Lianghua carefully helped Zhao Qingfang to walk to the doctor's duty rest room, and along the way, he could hear some people who knew Zhao Qingfang saying, "I want to open something... Condolences and change" and so on.

But she didn't have the heart to pay attention to this, her face was pale, and she was expressionless and let Meng Lianghua help her to a place she didn't know.

Zhao's mother's death hit Zhao Qingfang very hard, all this came too fast, she couldn't face the reality for a long time, and she didn't want to admit that her mother, who had been dependent on her for all these years, had passed away, but for her mother, this may be a result, she could finally be reunited with her father in heaven, but she was alone in the world.

She didn't have any intention to arrange the rest of the matter, but at this time, Meng Lianghua took care of all the affairs of Zhao's mother's future life, from the cremation of the body to contacting relatives and friends to the banquet arrangement of the farewell party, Meng Lianghua completed it alone.

Meng Lianghua also buried Zhao's mother and Zhao's father together in accordance with the last wish that Zhao's mother told him before she passed away, and let them be together forever in heaven.

Mother Zhao's funeral was not a big deal, there was really no one, Meng Lianghua and Zhao Qingfang just took Zhao's mother's ashes from the crematorium, chose an auspicious day and came to Zhao Qingfang's father's hometown, invited some relatives of the Zhao family and some relatives of Zhao's mother's family to have a light meal, and simply buried Zhao's mother, not to disturb relatives and friends, this is also Zhao's mother's last wish to explain Meng Lianghua.

On the day of the burial, it rained heavily, and for the long-lost coolness of this summer, Meng Lianghua followed the custom of his son-in-law to wear linen and filial piety, and set up a tombstone and kowtowed three times at present. And at present, he said: "I will take care of Xiaofang for the rest of my life, Auntie, please rest in peace." ”

Zhao Qingfang, who was kneeling on the side, kept tears, looked at the man in front of him who was paying silently, and secretly promised in his heart that in this life, this man, no matter what happened, he would not marry.

"Since my mother passed away, I have made up my mind that if you don't give up, I will always be with you. Zhao Qingfang whispered on the bed, "So don't say the stupid things that dragged me down just now, if you weren't by my side when my mother passed away, I don't know what would happen to me." ”

"I know, I was in a hurry just now, and I said it wrong. Meng Lianghua said with a smile.

It was already more than 3 o'clock in the morning when the two were chattering, Meng Lianghua saw that it was already very late, so he said: "Sleep, I have to go to work tomorrow, and Xie Pengfei's situation is not known yet, so I have to go and see it early."

What the situation. ”

"Hmm. ”

This night, the two recalled almost all the time in the past year or so, and all the good and bad in the memories will only become the past and become memories after all.
