Chapter 68: You grow up with me, and I grow old with you

I used to think that a crumpled ball of paper could not be flattened. Black ink, dotted on white paper, will always feel flawed. The rope has been knotted, how can you get it if you can't do it, there will always be traces. Some injuries, how to make up for inability, are still injuries after all. But, my mother taught me to be grateful and let go. I realized that some things, what I thought were right, were actually outrageously wrong.

Mom is right, some things have already happened and cannot be changed. Instead of hurting and torturing yourself, it is better to let go of yourself and look at what happened with new eyes. Even, you don't have to forgive the other person, but you must choose to let yourself go.

Life seems to be very long, but in fact it is very short. In life, you never know what will happen tomorrow. I don't know what awaits you at the next intersection. Instead of spending time and energy hating someone who is long gone and things that can't be changed. It's not just torturing yourself, it's also a romantic life.

What you can't control, let it take its course. The wrong person leaves to make room for the right person. At the moment, I don't think about my biological parents. I just want to accompany my mother, who raised me as an adult, and I have no blood relationship, waiting for my father to get better.

Two hours later, the doctor walked out again. I helped my mother to the doctor. My mother asked in a trembling tone, "Doctor, how is my wife?" ”

I'm really afraid that the doctor will say that my father is no longer good, and I am even more afraid that my mother will not be able to bear this blow. Fortunately, good people will still be taken care of by God.

The doctor said, "The operation was successful and the bleeding has stopped." The patient was out of danger. ”

When my mother heard this, she thanked her, "Thank you, doctor." ”

The doctor said, "Don't thank me just yet. Although the patient is out of danger, it is still unknown whether he will wake up. Also, you have to be mentally prepared that the cost of follow-up treatment is very high. It may be more than 200,000, or even higher. ”

After saying this, the doctor turned and left. I saw that my mother was facing high medical bills, and the whole person was not very good. I said, "Mom, Daddy is here, everything is there." Don't worry, my son has grown up. ”

My mother looked at me and said, "Son, your father is seriously ill and in a hurry to use the money, let's sell the house!"

I choked back my tears and didn't let it stay. At this moment, I realized how weak and powerless I was in the face of natural and man-made disasters. But I gritted my teeth, not wanting her to be sad, and I said, "Mom, we're not at the end of our rope, we're not there yet." Keep the house first, and let the son figure out the rest. ”

Mom said, "What can you do?" ”

I said, "Mom, your son has grown up. ”

Aunt Zou said, "I have a little savings here, not much." Hope it helps. ”

My mother said, "How can this work?" ”

Aunt Zou directly stuffed the bank card into her mother's hand and said, "I was divorced, living in poverty, and I had to raise my daughter." At that time, I felt that life was meaningless. If it weren't for Lao Hu helping me, I wouldn't have survived. To be a man must have a conscience, but also to understand the Entu retribution. Lao Hu has something to do, and I have to help me say anything. Otherwise, I don't want to go. ”

Aunt Zou saw that her mother was still reluctant to accept the bank card handed over, and said, "Lao Hu has a lot of places to use money, you take it first." ”

My mother said, "I borrowed money, and I don't know how long it will take me to pay it back." ”

Aunt Zou said, "When you have money, pay me back." ”

My mother thanked her many times before accepting Aunt Zou's kindness. My father's operation was successful, but he was not out of danger and was transferred to a high-risk ward.

I naturally understand these processes in the hospital. I advised my mother to go back and rest. My mother stood outside the high-risk ward, watching my father on a ventilator, without saying a word.

As the visiting time ended, my mother reluctantly left. Before leaving, the mother said, "Father, child, I didn't speak, you are not allowed to leave, and you are not allowed to leave me." Do you still want to watch the child get married with me? You have to get well quickly, you haven't accompanied me to Emei, Sichuan to watch the sunrise. You said you wanted to grow old with me. ”

When I heard this, tears flowed uncontrollably. At this moment, I finally understood the love between my father and my mother. Perhaps, the love of the older generation, there are no grand weddings, no flowers and sports cars. All they have is a simple sentence, you have to grow old with me.

When my mother got home, she locked herself in her room. I cooked the meal and called my mother to eat. No matter what I said, she said she had no appetite and didn't eat anything.

I didn't want my mother to fall down too, saying, "Dad wakes up and sees that Mom has lost weight, he will be distressed." ”

I saw that my mother didn't speak, and was about to close the door and go out, when I suddenly heard my mother say, "Will your father wake up?"

I said in the affirmative, "Yes." Now that medical technology is developed, my father will wake up. ”

"You won't lie to me. ”

"Your son is a doctor, so he won't lie to you. ”

"I'm tired, let me rest. ”

I closed the door, my whole body was paralyzed, and my tears flowed down my cheeks. Back home, in front of my mother, I kept trying to make myself strong. At this moment, I felt so dazed and helpless. Thinking that I had studied so many books, once something happened to my family, I wouldn't be able to help at all. I asked myself what I had done for more than 20 years.

I don't know how long it took for my phone to ring. I'm not in the mood to answer the phone, put it aside. However, the other party still did not give up, and hit one after another.

I picked up my phone and saw that it was Sun Zhi calling, and answered the phone.

Sun Zhi asked me, "Are you okay?"

I said, "Good." ”

Sun Zhi asked again, "What did your aunt call you about?" ”

I said, "Seeing that I haven't been home in a long time, call me." ”

"It's okay. Sun Zhi heard that there was something wrong with my voice, and said, "Are you okay? ”

"What can I do. I pretended to be fine, "I can't go back during this time, you can help me resign!"

Sun Zhi smiled and said, "Okay, why resign." ”

"I miss home. I want to stay with my parents. I paused and asked, "Can you lend me some money?" ”

Sun Zhi didn't ask me why, and asked directly, "How much do you want?" ”

I said, "Maybe 100,000." ”

Sun Zhi said briskly: "I will transfer it to you." ”

I said, "Thank you." ”

He said, "Between buddies, don't say these two words." ”

I was afraid that I would not be able to control my emotions, so I made an excuse and hung up the phone. It didn't take long for me to receive a text message. Sun Zhi sent me another message saying, "If there's anything, don't carry it alone." Brother, you will always be your strongest backing. ”

After a while, I heard a lot of short messages. I opened it and looked, it was inside the buddy group. I don't know how they know about me. I watched as they cheered me on, and the money they transferred to me.

I messaged back and said thank you.

My brothers are cheering me on, how can I not choose to be strong. Suddenly, I swept away the sadness in my heart and regained my strength.

My dad is down, and I'm the breadwinner of the family. I'm going to take responsibility for my family, and I can't let myself go.

The next day, I handed over the money my brothers had borrowed and my bank card to my mother. I said, "The money in this is enough for Dad's medical expenses for the time being." If it's not enough, I'll find another way. ”

When my mother saw it, she asked, "Where did you get this money?" ”

I knew what my mother was worried about, so I hurriedly said, "My friend borrowed it." ”

Mom said, "Don't worry about your father's business, I'll figure it out." Your dad will wake up and he'll be upset. ”

I said, "He's my dad, and I'm going to do something for my family." ”

With tears in her eyes, my mother said, "Your dad doesn't know when he will wake up, and where he is a bottomless pit." I don't want you to be saddled with foreign debts at a young age, and I don't want you to have too much trouble in the future. ”

I said, "Mom, don't worry. Your son is young, with hands and feet. I won't make my life too hard, and I won't let you live too hard. My son will also work hard to earn money so that you may be happy. ”

"Child, I know that you are filial. But we're not your biological parents, so you don't..."

"You are my parents. If there is something, we will face it together. I looked at my mother, untied her knot, and said very seriously, "You grow up with me, and I grow old with you." ”
