Chapter 42: Let's Face Together
"Don't worry, baby's very well-behaved. Mo Tianyi picked up Lin Baobao, "Let's go, let's try on clothes first." After shopping for clothes, go shopping for chocolates. ”
Lu Xin followed behind, looking at Mo Tianyi's back, deep in his heart, it seemed that he had knocked over the five-flavor bottle, and all kinds of flavors were surging.
Brother Providence really likes her sister-in-law, right? You can see it from the last time you were in the playground. That is, her sister-in-law was full of eyes and only her brother did not find out.
After buying clothes for Lin Baobao, Mo Tianyi took him to buy chocolates again.
"Be careful, here you go. Mo Tianyi handed over a plate of chocolate, "I remember that you also like to eat chocolate." ”
Lu Xin was stunned for a moment, and generously accepted the chocolate, "Thank you, Brother Providence." But in the future, Brother Providence still doesn't give me chocolates, I only accept chocolates from my boyfriend. ”
"......" Mo Tianyi felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, but he didn't know what he was uncomfortable with, "Who said that chocolate can only be given to boyfriends and girlfriends, and brothers can also be given to younger sisters." ”
"Forget it. Lu Xin said: "In my place, I only accept my boyfriend's chocolates." ”
Mo Tianyi looked at her, and swallowed the words when they came to his mouth, "We'll talk again in the evening." ”
"Okay. Lu Xin smiled, "But Brother Providence, I really don't think there's anything to talk about." I'm really not reassured. ”
Mo Tianyi didn't speak, turned his head and continued to take the baby to choose chocolates.
It was still early to buy it, so they took the baby to the children's area of the mall to play, and only called Lin Yutong and Lu Ning at about eleven o'clock and asked them to come to a Huaiyang restaurant on the fifth floor of the shopping mall to eat.
"Mommy, this is a gift for you. Lin Baobao took out two small boxes from his small bag, "And this, it's for my aunt." ”
"Thank you, baby, is it chocolate?" Lin Yutong smiled and accepted the gift.
"Uh-huh. Lin Baobao nodded, "It's delicious." ”
Lu Xin didn't expect that he still had one, so he happily accepted it, "Thank you, baby." ”
"Hee-hee, no thanks. Lin Baobao beckoned, and waited for Lu Xin to lower his head and lean his ears over before whispering, "Auntie should be happy." ”
With a soft and glutinous voice, Lu Xin almost couldn't hold back his red eyes.
She thinks she's good at hiding her emotions, but children are usually more sensitive to emotions than adults.
The baby saw that she was unhappy, so he bought a gift to coax her.
Lu Xin hugged the baby and rubbed it, "Sister-in-law, why don't you raise the baby for me, it's too intimate." ”
"How do you raise it?" Lu Ning sandwiched a crystal dish meat for Lin Yutong, and raised his eyes to look at Lu Xin, "Let the baby eat takeout with you every day?"
"......" Lu Xin felt heartbroken, "Brother, you will lose your sister like this, do you know?"
Lin Yutong said with a smile: "The baby usually has to study, and when the holiday comes, I will take him to play with you." ”
"My brother is just inhumane to the opposite sex, so it's better to be a sister-in-law. It will hurt people. ”
"Speaking of holidays, the Spring Festival is coming up in a few months. Is Tongtong spending the Spring Festival in China this year, or going abroad to accompany your mother?" Mo Tianyi said.
"It will depend on the situation. Lin Yutong smiled, "Dr. Maite said that his mother's condition is already a little eyebrow-raising, and if he wants to be treated at that time, I should still go over." ”
"Will your mom wake up after the treatment?"
"Only 60 percent sure. Dr. Matt said that my mother's health was not good in the first place, and told me to be mentally prepared not to expect too much. Lin Yutong sighed, smiled and changed the topic, "How did you go shopping in the morning?
"Yes. Lin Baobao gnawed a chicken paw, "I didn't let Daddy spend money indiscriminately." ”
"yes, this little thing is very strict. Mo Tianyi smiled: "I want to buy him one more sweater and I won't let me buy it, like a little housekeeper." ”
"Hee-hee, Daddy eats chicken feet. ”
"You've eaten it, right?
"Hee-hee. Lin Baobao smiled and bent his eyes.
For lunch, everyone chatted happily while eating, and after eating, Lu Xin said that he wanted to go back to make up for sleep, and Mo Tianyi also said that he had an appointment in the afternoon.
Mo Tianyi asked, "How are you doing in the decoration city?"
"Almost everything needed was ordered, and they delivered it to your door tomorrow. You guys are busy with your business, I'll take the baby to my father's house for dinner in the evening. ”
"Then let's go first. Be careful, I didn't drive here, you sent me?" Mo Tianyi was still a little apprehensive after asking, worried that Lu Xin would say that it would be inconvenient.
Lu Xin smiled and nodded, "Okay, I'll drive here anyway." Where is Brother Providence going, I will send you over. ”
The two left, and Lu Ning frowned, "There is a problem between these two people." ”
"Yes...... Is it?" Lin Yutong was a little weak-hearted.
Lu Ning turned his head to look at her, "Cat, do you know something?"
"No, I don't. I don't know anything. Lin Yutong's eyes rolled, "Lu Ning, where are we going to take the baby to play in the afternoon?"
"There's a children's music competition, I have tickets, take the baby to feel it. If he has music that he wants to learn, he can hire a teacher at the beginning of the year. Lu Ning pulled the conversation back, "Cat, do you know that you don't dare to look me in the eye every time you lie?"
Lin Yutong sighed, "Okay." I do know something, but if I can't tell you, don't ask me. ”
Lu Ning was not reluctant, "Let's go, go and watch the music competition." ”
It was already more than three o'clock in the afternoon when they came out after watching the music competition, and Lin Baobao was the first time to contact such a competition, and showed a strong love for the piano.
"Mommy, can I learn piano?"
"Baby likes piano?" Lin Yutong was a little surprised, "If you really like it, you can learn it." However, learning piano will be very boring in the early stage, and if you do, you can't give up halfway. ”
"Eun, I like it. Lin Baobao nodded seriously.
Lu Ning said: "You can leave a separate room in the new house as the baby's piano room." When the room is set up, I ask someone to send a piano over. ”
"Good. Lin Yutong said: "Don't invite the teacher alone, I'll go and see after the New Year, and report a piano interest class to the baby." That way, he can meet some friends who share common interests and hobbies, which is more interesting than studying alone at home. ”
"Listen to you. ”
"It's not even four o'clock. Lu Ning, let's go sell winter clothes for Dad and Aunt Li and then go back. ”
"Good. ”
After they bought their things and went back, Father Lin and Aunt Li had already bought the vegetables back, and they were busy in the kitchen with the nanny preparing dinner.
Lu Ning drank two glasses with Father Lin, and went back to Lin Yutong's car after dinner.
"Lu Ning, my dad likes you a lot. Lin Yutong smiled, "Speaking of which, my father also knew that we were together in high school, but he didn't object, he just asked me to pay attention to myself and don't delay my studies." ”
Father Lin has always been more open-minded, if Mother Lin could be so open-minded, there may be no follow-up at all.
"I know. After you left, I looked for Daddy Lin. ”
"Have you ever looked for my father?" Lin Yutong was a little surprised, "Why did my father never mention it to me." ”
"Maybe I don't want you to be psychologically burdened. Lu Ning said: "It's a little stuffy, I'll open the window a little." ”
"You go. Lin Yutong turned his head to look at him, "Do you want to smoke?"
"Hmm. Lu Ning nodded.
"Then you smoke it. ”
"I don't smoke, I borrowed it. Lu Ning sighed, "You want a child and let me smoke, what do you think?"
"I can't bear to make you uncomfortable. Lin Yutong pouted, "By the way, Lu Ning, when will the two of us move their accounts together?"
"When you move. Lu Ning touched a piece of gum from the box, "Cat, your phone is ringing." ”
"You can pick it up for me. ”
Lu Ning took out her mobile phone, "It's Dr. Matt." ”
"It's very likely that my mother's condition is in trouble. Lu Ning, pick it up. ”
Lu Ning called and picked up, "Hello, I'm Lu Ning." ”
"Oh, hello Mr. Lu, may I ask where is Lin?"
"She's driving, right next to it, and you just say she can hear her. ”
"Okay. Yes, we found a cure, but Lin's mother had a different condition. Her body was not good in the first place, and in the past few years, she has relied on nutrient solutions to lie down, and many organs and functions of her body have deteriorated, and the condition of her original body has also been revealed. We can treat it, and there is an 80 percent chance that Lin's mother will wake up, but after waking up, she may only have one to two years to live. ”
There was a red light in front of him, and Lin Yutong slowly drove the car to the side of the road and stopped, "Dr. Matt, do you mean that even if my mother wakes up, she will only live for another two years at most?"
"Yes. Dr. Matt said, "So I want to ask for your opinion on the implementation of the treatment plan?"
"What if it doesn't happen?"
"With the hospital's technology, your mother could live for three to five years if she continued to lie like this. ”
"I ...... I'll think about it and give you an answer tomorrow, can I?"
"Okay. ”
Hanging up the phone, Lin Yutong's face was a little unsightly.
Even if Mother Lin continues to be a vegetative person, she will only live for another five years at most, and she has an 80% chance of waking up through treatment, but she can live for up to two years after waking up.
Whether to let Lin's mother continue to lie down like this for a few more years, or let her spend the last two years of her life soberly, is a huge choice for Lin Yutong.
And Mother Lin will become what she is now, entirely because of her.
Isn't it...... If that hadn't happened, would my mother have lived to old age?
Lin Yutong's heart swelled with guilt and self-blame, and her body couldn't help but tremble.
Lu Ning unbuckled her seat belt and pulled her over to hug her, "Cat, breathe, listen to me." ”
Lin Yutong leaned on his arms, and slowly spit out the breath that he had been holding his teeth tightly.
Lu Ning said: "Things have happened, now let's assume that those things no longer have any meaning." What we can do now is to do what we should do in the past few years, so that we don't have so many regrets in our future life, understand?"
"Lu Ning, in fact, I understand all these truths, but I just can't get over the hurdle in my heart. Lin Yutong's tears welled up, she thought that it would be good as long as her mother could wake up, but she didn't expect her mother to have such a short life left.
This would make her think that she had killed her mother.
"I know. Lu Ning tightened the force on his arm, "Cat, it's okay." No matter how long it takes you to get over this, I'm with you. No matter what happens, you have me. ”
"Hmm. Lin Yutong grabbed his arm, "Lu Ning, I'm so scared now." ”
"Cat, look at me. ”
Lin Yutong looked up at him with tears in her eyes.
Lu Ning also looked at him, "You are not alone now." No matter what you want to do, I will be there for you. Have you thought of Dr. Matt's advice, should you treat Mother Lin, or not?"
"Five years and two years. Lin Yutong lowered his eyes and said half-loudly: "Lu Ning, I want to be treated." I asked my mom to leave at least alive. ”
This is alive, it is truly alive, not lying in a hospital bed, ignorant of everything.
"And ......" Lin Yutong's fingers pinching Lu Ning's arm gradually tightened, "Moreover, maybe in the past two years, medicine has progressed, and then my mother will be saved again?"
"Well, I agree with the treatment as well. Lu Ning said: "Anyway, vegetative people are not actually alive. ”
Lin Yutong nodded, "Okay, I'll call Dr. Maite back." ”
