"Brother, Mom's condition has recurred, she keeps vomiting and can't eat? A middle-aged woman on the other end of the phone shouted urgently.

"Fang, you wait, I'll be right back now. Section Chief Wang hung up the phone eagerly, hurriedly explained some things to his subordinates, and then drove home.

In principle, civil servants are not allowed to leave their posts during work, but Section Chief Wang's mother is seriously ill, and the doctor has given an ultimatum that there is no cure for him and will die soon.

Based on this special situation, Section Chief Wang has reported to his boss in advance and received special permission to return home at any time to deal with emergency matters.

Driving all the way home, Section Chief Wang was anxious, wishing that there would be a green light all the way.

Section Chief Wang's full name is Wang Ke, an ordinary rural baby in the countryside under the county-level city of Jianghai Province, his biological parents died of illness in the early years, leaving only the young him and his sister Wang Fang to rely on each other.

Because there are no grandparents, grandparents, or even uncles and aunts, the two siblings have nothing to rely on.

After their parents passed away, the village chief contacted the county orphanage, hoping that they would be able to accept the lonely brother and sister.

However, the orphanage in the county immediately refused and refused to accept it on the grounds that the finances were tight and there was no spare space.

Wang Ke and Wang Fang, two siblings, were put into a black household because their parents violated family planning, and they were not even eligible to receive subsistence allowances, so they could only fend for themselves, begging in the countryside, eating all the bad meals thrown away by others, or eating all kinds of mountain fruits to barely satisfy their hunger.

Because they often don't have enough to eat, the two siblings are so hungry that they have yellow muscles and thin bones.

A lonely widow surnamed Wang in the same village, with a kind face and kindness, really couldn't stand it, she kindly adopted this lonely brother and sister.

The widow regarded the siblings as her own, and she worked tirelessly. With the strength of one person, he was stunned to save money from between his teeth, and used his few savings to support the two siblings with food, clothing and school.

Wang Ke and Wang Fang are also very competitive, sensible since childhood, do not need the supervision of Widow Wang, both of them are excellent in school, and their grades in all subjects are outstanding.

In the college entrance examination that year, Wang Ke was admitted to the School of Economics of Jianghai University with super high scores to study economics, and after graduation, he was successfully admitted to the civil service of the Local Taxation Bureau and became a member of it.

Wang Fang graduated from a junior college, also worked in a state-owned enterprise, married a few years ago, gave birth to a child, began to marry and raise children, and lived a happy life.

Wang Ke and Wang Fang are both affectionate and righteous people, although the widow Wang is not their own mother, but it is better than their own mother, after the two of them have gained a firm foothold in Jianghai City, they want to take the widow Wang into the city to enjoy the blessings.

When people are old, they always have the idea of returning to their roots, and the widow Wang is afraid of causing trouble to the two brothers and sisters, and secondly, she is reluctant to give up an acre and three points of land in her hometown, so she didn't agree to enter the city.

The two brothers and sisters did not disobey the widow of the king, as long as they were free on festivals or weekends, they would bring nutritious products to the countryside to visit the elderly.

When Widow Wang was young, because of her hard work to take care of her two siblings, she was branded with many potential diseases.

In May this year, she suddenly felt unwell, and when she went to the county hospital for a test, the doctor told her that it was advanced X cancer.

After Wang Ke and Wang Fang learned about it, they immediately rushed to the countryside to take Widow Wang to the best hospital in Jianghai City for treatment, but the doctor said that it was too late, and the X cells had spread malignantly, and there was really no way to recover.

Wang Ke and Wang Fang's two brothers and sisters are sad day and night, but Widow Wang looks down on it, although she has no culture, she also knows that life and death are destined for wealth and prosperity! Since she can't change it, she can only accept it indifferently and cherish the rest of the days.

Widow Wang didn't like the smell of disinfectant water in the hospital, and the intensive care ward was too expensive, so the old man still wanted to save some money and asked to move home.

So a week later, Wang Ke went through the discharge procedures and took her home.

Wang Fang applied for a long leave from her state-owned enterprise in the past two weeks to stay at Wang Ke's home to take care of the elderly.

In the past few days, Widow Wang has not been able to get out of bed at all, often hurting into the bone marrow, sweating like rain, and can only be maintained by analgesic pills.

Wang Ke saw the pain in his eyes and heart, as a son, seeing his mother suffering but unable to do anything, this feeling was even more painful than digging his heart.

……

Wang Ke shook his head, he drove to the community where he lived, parked the car, got on the elevator, and rushed to the commercial house located on the eleventh floor.

Wang Ke has served as the section chief of the Jianghai Local Taxation Bureau for more than ten years, and he has always been conscientious in his work, and he has never made mistakes in principle, and he can sincerely work for the people.

Because of the real integrity, he has no gray income except for the salary of the section chief, many section chiefs of the same department have two or three suites, but he is only in a mid-range community, with a 100-square-meter ordinary commercial house.

This house was bought by him with years of provident fund and years of accumulated salary.

The house is also three bedrooms, one living room and one bathroom, and the decoration is decent, not high-end, and it can even be said to be a little shabby.

Wang Fang was already standing on the bed in a bedroom, trying her best to take care of the elderly, she was holding half a bowl of porridge in her hand, and when she saw Wang Ke, she hid her face and said:

"Wang Ke, Mom can't eat anything, and after drinking less than two sips of a bowl of porridge, she keeps cheering your name! ”

Wang Keqiang suppressed his tears, walked to the edge of the bed, put his mouth to the old man's ear, and whispered, "Mom, Kezi has come to see you, can you hear it?"

The old man's consciousness was already very vague, and after hearing the call, she tried her best to open her eyelids, and when she saw Wang Ke, she said weakly: "It's Xiao Kezi...... Damn it...... Watch out for your liver baby!"

"Mom, Xiao Kezi is right next to you. Wang Ke held the old man's cold hands tightly with tears in his eyes, and asked carefully, "Mom, are you hungry, do you want to eat something?"

The old man shook his head slightly, and said softly, "Xiao Kezi, Mom really has no appetite and can't eat." ”

Because the old man's body could not move, and his mouth was not good. These days, I have been relying on nutritional injections, and I can't even eat liquid food after one or two bites, mainly because the body organs have been seriously damaged and cannot be absorbed, and even if I eat it, I will vomit.

Because of her poor spirits, Widow Wang didn't say a few words at the moment, and fell into a coma again.

During this time, the widow became more and more in a coma.

Wang Ke knew that the old man's time was running out, and the deadline might be today, so he wiped a handful of tears and choked up on Wang Fang: "Fang, you take care of your mother, I'll go out and bring some food for our mother." ”

"Brother, Mom can't even drink a few sips of porridge now, what else can I eat? Why don't you stay here and see what Mom has to say." Wang Fang was completely a tearful person, and her face was wet with tears.

"Fang, there is a store of porridge, maybe Mom can eat it, we can't let Mom go hungry, I'll buy one and try it." Wang Ke wiped away another handful of tears and stood up firmly.

"Brother, then you go and come back quickly, I'm afraid that my mother won't be able to hold on......" Wang Fang didn't finish speaking, and couldn't help crying sadly.

"I see. After Wang Ke finished speaking, he ran out.

Taking the elevator directly to the underground garage, Wang Ke drove straight to the Xiaobai Restaurant at No. XX Chaotianmen Street.
