Chapter 118: Father
Chu Tianqi picked up the internal telephone receiver and said, "Hello...... Steward...... Okay, I'll go over right away. After speaking, he put down the phone and hurriedly walked out.
Wang Xiaoying's annoying voice came from behind him: "Hmph, sure enough, it's a little goblin looking for him, look at him in a hurry......"
……
Township Mayor's Office.
Seeing Chu Tianqi coming in, Ning Junqi asked with some curiosity, "What's wrong with you?"
"Not really?"
"Then why is there a strange expression on his face? ”
"I've met a mad dog. ”
"You...... Who are you scolding?" Ning Junqi pointed at Chu Tianqi and said angrily.
Looking at Ning Junqi's appearance, he suddenly understood, it turned out that she had misunderstood his words, so he hurriedly said with a smile: "Township, township chief, I mean I met a mad dog before I came to you, I didn't say that you are ......" Chu Tianqi couldn't help laughing out loud when he said this.
"That's pretty much it. Ning Junqi's face softened, and then he thought of the word "mad dog" that he almost said, and said coquettishly: "I hate it to death." ”
When Chu Tianqi saw Ning Junqi's little girl's appearance, his heart moved for no reason. In the days when he was injured and discharged from the hospital, Ning Junqi was always lukewarm to himself. A few days ago, after he "apologized for his grievances", Ning Junqi was in a very good mood, so he let himself accompany him for a long time on the street, and he teased himself during dinner that day. However, when he returned to the township, he had that businesslike face. When he finally saw her cute appearance again today, he couldn't help but stare at her.
Ning Junqi also noticed his abnormality, his face turned red, and he coughed lightly twice before Chu Tianqi withdrew his gaze.
"Assistant Chu, why did you come here today? There are two things, one is that the Public Security Bureau has notified that a celebration meeting will be held in the city in the afternoon of the day after tomorrow, mainly to commend the collectives and individuals who have made outstanding contributions in this crackdown on high-quality crimes. You were also invited because of your merits in helping to solve the case. You need to rush to the county in the afternoon of the day after tomorrow, meet up with the comrades of the Public Security Bureau, and rush to the city early the day after tomorrow. ”
"Okay, I remember. Chu Tianqi nodded and said.
After Chu Tianqi finished speaking, Ning Junqi did not speak immediately, but stared at Chu Tianqi with his eyes. Chu Tianqi was looked a little unnatural, so he coughed twice to hide his embarrassment.
"Have you heard anything?" Ning Junqi spoke, "It's a very fierce rumor that has been spreading recently. ”
Seeing Ning Junqi's serious expression when he spoke, Chu Tianqi thought for a moment and replied, "I heard a few, one is a rumor about the Standing Committee, and the other is a rumor about County Magistrate Ai. ”
Ning Junqi saw that Chu Tianqi had stopped talking, she didn't answer, but looked at him, as if waiting for him to continue. It was only a few tens of seconds before she said, "Isn't it?"
Chu Tianqi shook his head: "No." ”
"Haha, you're cunning. Ning Junqi pointed at Chu Tianqi with his hand and said, "I haven't heard any rumors about you?"
Chu Tianqi shook his head again, he couldn't tell the rumors that he would be the head of the township.
"You don't say it. Ning Junqi did not continue the topic, but said another thing: "At ten o'clock tomorrow morning, the leaders of the organization department will go to the township to announce the matter, and you will participate then." ”
"Oh", Chu Tianqi replied, and couldn't help but ask, "What's the matter?"
Hearing Chu Tianqi's question, Ning Junqi said as if it were true or false: "You don't really think it's for you to be the head of the township, right?"
Chu Tianqi hurriedly shook his head like a rattle: "Don't scare me, I don't dare to have such thoughts if I am killed." ”
"You are self-aware. Ning Junqi said with a smile, and then asked, "How is the situation of the uncle?"
Hearing about asking his father, Chu Tianqi said with a gloomy expression: "It's still like that, it doesn't get better, and it doesn't get worse." Thank you! There is nothing I need help with for the time being, and if there is a need, I will trouble you. ”
"Okay. That's right, you wait. After Ning Junqi finished speaking, he stood up and entered the back room.
When she came out, she carried a cardboard box in her hand and said, "Take it quickly."
Chu Tianqi took a step forward and took it.
"For the uncle, this is a massager with instructions. It was just sent by my friend today. Ning Junqi sat down in the chair again and said.
"Township Chief, this, how embarrassing is this, you have helped me a lot. Chu Tianqi hurriedly excused himself.
Ning Junqi waved his hand and said, "Okay, this is for the uncle, not for you." Of course, you just don't want to cause me more trouble in the future. ”
"How much is that?" Chu Tianqi continued to excuse himself.
"Do you dare not listen to the leader's words? Before this happens, the tail will rise to the sky. Ning Junqi said in a leader's tone, "Don't talk nonsense, let's go home and have a look today, or it will take a few days to see my uncle." ”
"Township Chief, how can I thank you for this?" Chu Tianqi said sincerely.
Ning Junqi's face flushed for no reason: "Okay, don't bother, you don't have to be grateful, let's go." ”
Chu Tianqi was no longer polite and walked out of the township chief's office.
Seeing Chu Tianqi walk out, Ning Junqi scolded lightly, "I'm really not ashamed", because just now when Chu Tianqi said "How can I thank you", she thought of the joke that Chu Tianqi once said about "promising each other with your body".
……
Chu Tianqi carried the massager and thought as he walked, this girl is very careful, and she is also very good to me. Thinking of this, he laughed at himself in his heart: "Don't think nonsense, this is just the normal concern of the leader for his subordinates, just like the nature of Secretary Huang's computer for himself, mainly to encourage himself to work hard." Of course, one is with public funds and the other is with private funds. ”
"Assistant Chu, where are you going?"
Chu Tianqi, who was looking down and thinking about something, looked up and saw that the director was coming from on.
"Oh, I'll go back to the office. ”
After speaking, the two passed by.
Suddenly, the director turned his head and said, "Assistant Chu, are you going home?" After a while, the driver Xiao Meng and I are going to the countryside, and we happen to pass by your village. ”
Chu Tianqi is a flurry: Could it be that the director has a special function, and he actually knows that he wants to go home. However, Chu Tianqi was immediately relieved: this is just a coincidence, but this is also a clear show for the director. In the past, the director would never have done this.
"That's great, I'm getting ready to go home, thank you. Chu Tianqi replied.
"Okay, you wait, then we'll leave in a moment. After the director finished speaking, he walked forward quickly.
……
Chu Tianqi arrived home near noon. After asking the director and Xiao Meng to enter the house to see Chu Yuliang, they left without staying to eat. Before leaving, the director deliberately waited for Xiao Meng to get out of the courtyard first, and then insisted on giving Chu Tianqi a hundred yuan, saying that he was buying supplements for his uncle. Without waiting for Chu Tianqi to resign, the director had already run out.
My mother and sister were both at home, and although it was already noon, they did not cook. Because every year in the winter, I eat two meals during the slack season.
After Chu Tianqi washed his hands, he went to massage his father's little legs.
The gauze and net cover on his father Chu Yuliang's head have been removed, and there is a very inconspicuous scar on the wound, and the hair stubble is about half an inch long. My father's face was very thin, his cheekbones were visibly raised, and his chin and sideburns were blue, as if he had just shaved his beard.
Although Chu Yuliang has been bedridden for more than a month, and he can't take care of himself. But because he was often turned over and scrubbed, there were no bedsores on his body, and he didn't smell anything.
Chu Tianqi knew that in the whole process of nursing his father, his sister Chu Lijuan had paid the most hardship. So, he said sincerely: "Sister, thank you for your hard work." ”
"It's like I'm not from my family. Chu Lijuan complained about her younger brother, and then went to work in the outhouse.
His sister's unintentional words stirred Chu Tianqi's nerves again, making him sigh.
……
At about three o'clock in the afternoon, Chu Tianqi saw that his younger brother had not come back yet, so he asked, "Mom, on such a cold day, Lirui is still living in the mountains?"
"No, he went out the day before yesterday, saying that he had gone to the suburbs to ask about fruit trees. Mother You Chunmei answered Chu Tianqi's question.
Niu Niu is back, and everyone starts eating. During the meal, Chu Tianqi talked about going to the city to participate in the commendation meeting. Mother and sister were very happy, and Niuniu clapped her hands proudly and said, "Uncle is a big hero."
Mother suddenly said worriedly: "Mom doesn't want you to be any heroes, I just want you to be safe." ”
Chu Tianqi certainly understands a mother's heart for her children.
……
At night, Chu Tianqi slept with his father in the West House, and his mother, sister, and Niuniu went to the East House.
Chu Tianqi turned over his father again, and removed the cloth mat under his father's body. Although it looks very simple, Chu Tianqi also took a lot of effort to finish it, I don't know how my sister usually does it as a weak woman? It may be that my sister is proficient in doing it, and the method is more right.
Because her father was unconscious, her sister Chu Lijuan had become half a nurse. She had to infuse her father with some nutrient solutions prescribed by the hospital three times a day, turn over his father many times, and massage him more frequently, while her mother carried out some auxiliary work beside her.
Because of my father's injury, the whole family was much haggard. My father was originally 1.8 meters tall, and he weighed 170 pounds before he was injured, but now he has become skinny and skinny, and it is estimated that he doesn't even have 120 pounds. The mother was so thin that she was almost out of shape. And my sister also has sunken eye sockets and a yellow complexion. My younger brother has been looking a little abnormal since the last blood donation. If you want to say that you are in better health, you can count Chu Tianqi.
The father was still quietly "sleeping", with no obvious signs of recovery. My father's body temperature was slightly lower than normal, but relatively stable. Every day, he had to replenish the nutrient solution through the infusion tube, and the nutrient solution could flow into the blood vessels drop by drop, albeit slowly. He had to urinate many times a day, and when he was in the hospital, he was treated with large diapers. The cost of long-term use of diapers is also high. After being discharged from the hospital, he had to put a cloth under him, and a layer of plastic cloth under the cloth. My sister replaces them with dry cloths and plastic sheets at all times, so diapers and plastic sheets are hung on the clothesline in the yard every day.
After turning over his father, Chu Tianqi smoked a cigarette and then lay on the hot kang. It was warm under his body, but as soon as his arms stretched out, the room was a little cold, and Chu Tianqi was lying down in autumn clothes.
At this time, the singing of the theme song of the TV series came from the East House TV: When I was a child, I used to sit on my father's shoulder, my father was the ladder to the sky, and my father was the ox that pulled the cart. I can't forget that the coarse tea and light rice raised me, and I can't forget the long sigh and half a pot of old wine. When I grow up......"
Listening to the familiar melody, Chu Tianqi's mind suddenly appeared with the scene from his childhood, his eyes were instantly filled with mist, and then the water droplets of broken threads rolled down his cheeks.
