Chapter 40: I'm Going Back to the City
The hospital dormitory building is behind the outpatient building, separated by a red brick wall, and several small gray and white buildings are staggered among the tall pines and cypresses. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The doorman finished checking in and pointed to a small building, "205." ”
The door of room 205 was open, and a honeycomb coal stove was propped up in the doorway, and a small shiny aluminum pot was steaming from it.
"Who are you looking for?" a girl in her twenties held a rag in her hand and looked curiously at Teacher Sheng Lanlan and Tian who were standing in front of the door.
"We're looking for Wei Haoran. ”
"He's still on duty at the hospital, who are you?"
"Dr. Wei is my savior, if he hadn't donated blood to me, I would have died. "Sheng Lanlan gets straight to the point.
"Ahh The woman greeted warmly.
When she entered the house, the woman said that she was Wei Haoran's classmate, and she was interning in the hospital together, and she knew that he helped people donate blood, so she specially cooked old chicken soup for him to replenish his body. The woman was talking, busy looking for tea.
The room was neatly furnished, with an old desk covered with a blue checkered tablecloth and a piece of glass pressed against it. Under the glass are several drawings of the human body, as well as a photograph.
Sheng Lanlan took a closer look, and in the group photo, there were three men and two women, all dressed as students, each smiling and showing their white teeth. The female classmate standing in front of Wei Haoran was obviously leaning towards him, her head tilted to his shoulder, one hand holding a small braid with a ribbon on her chest, and her face was full of sweetness.
"That's a picture of our student council when we were doing an event. Seeing Sheng Lanlan, the woman looked at it seriously and explained.
Sheng Lanlan smiled knowingly, it was obvious that the relationship between the woman and Wei Haoran was not ordinary. I couldn't help but look at the woman carefully, the women's group had light eyebrows on her face, her figure was not fat or thin, and she had two shallow dimples when she smiled, and she was a virtuous and capable woman at first glance.
"Is my sister also studying surgery?" Sheng Lanlan glanced at the medical books piled up on the bedside partition, which were more than a foot high.
The woman covered her mouth and smiled, "I'm so sorry, I'm running out of tea." I can only ask you to drink plain water. After putting down the water glass, I was embarrassed to say, "I studied clinical nursing." You drink water, the weather is dry, and drinking more water is good for your health. ”
"It doesn't matter, no need!" Teacher Tian hurriedly excused himself, "Let's sit down and leave." "Chaosheng blue blue makes his eyes color.
"Sister's surname?"
"My name is Yang Hui. ”
Sheng Lanlan pushed the shoebox in front of the woman, "Sister Yang, these shoes are my heart, please accept them on behalf of Brother Wei." Without him, I wouldn't be able to stand here and talk to you, and I wouldn't have excused myself. ”
"That's good!" the woman pushed the shoebox to Sheng Lanlan, "Besides, our custom is that we can't give shoes to people." You better take it back and wear it yourself, I'm telling the truth. ”
"Oh, it turns out that Sister Yang and Brother Wei are still fellow villagers. ”
The woman blushed in embarrassment.
Teacher Tian persuaded a few words, the woman's attitude was very resolute, Sheng Lanlan heard that the woman was indeed unwilling to accept shoes because of customs, so she had to give up. Fortunately, there were two boxes of dim sum she bought for her brother, which were placed on the table, but the woman accepted them with a smile.
Back on the farm, it was already dark.
The lights were on in the Sheng family's house, the door was open, and the stove was blazing. The second uncle's family came back early.
Sheng Lanlan took her brother's hand and walked through the door, shouting "Second Aunt".
Zhao Jihong was pulling the bellows sideways, and he was still wearing the flannel shirt he wore when he went out, with yellow and white checkered on a green background.
"Lan Lan, why did you come back so late! Hurry up and wash your hands with Xiao Feng, and start the meal immediately, and steam white rice today. Zhao Jihong's face was brightened by the fire in the stove, and he spoke with a smile.
"This is the shoe I bought for my second uncle, I don't know if it fits or not. Sheng Lanlan remembered that the second uncle's feet were also forty-one yards, so he simply made a favor.
"Yo, it's still pigskin shoes! Lan Lan is really filial. Yanong, come over quickly, and see what good things your eldest niece has bought you." ”
Zhao Jihong was rarely so happy, and chattered again at the dinner table. While serving everyone a meal, they talked about going back to the city.
"You guys have listened to me, don't make trouble at school during this time, wait obediently to go back to the city, if it's fast, I can transfer you next month." ”
"Mom, what can we do! Unlike Lanlan, who can cut a soybean and cut it earth-shattering, and she has been in the county hospital for several days, and I heard that if no one can find her for a blood transfusion, her life will be gone. ”
"Don't talk nonsense, is that what she wants? Don't you see that she still has a scar on her wrist! Just in time for us not to be at home, Lan Lan is so scared to be alone in the hospital. I really have to thank the old principal and Mr. Hetian, and Ming'er brought two packs of snacks to express her gratitude. ”
"It's the school that organizes labor, and if something happens, the principal and the brigade counselor should be responsible, what is there to be thankful for! Mom, you might as well give me snacks to eat." ”
"Phew, you know how to eat. ”
Sheng Lingling finished the white rice in the bowl in a few bites, and stretched out the bowl to the side of the rice basin. was beaten back by Zhao Jihong, "Eat less, beware of eating to become a fat man." ”
"Mom, you're really stingy, haven't you heard, the train is not pushed, Tarzan is not piled up, and the fat man is not eaten!"
Sheng Lingling had no choice but to put another chopsticks and beans into the bowl, looking at other people's rice bowls unwillingly.
"I can't eat it, so I'll give it all to you. ”
"Great. ”
Sheng Lingling hurriedly took the meal that her sister Sheng Lili poured for her, and ate it with taste.
Sheng Lili pushed the bowl open, sat down in front of the desk and flipped through the book.
Sheng Jiannan bared his teeth, "I just studied after eating, and I am not afraid of bad digestion." It's useless to study, and when you return to the city, you won't be able to be a young pioneer captain and a good student anymore. I heard that the textbooks of the provincial schools are different from ours, and it is really a waste of time for a blind man to light the lamp. ”
"I want you to worry about it!" Sheng Lili glared back at her brother.
Sheng Jiannan also wanted to say that he was hit by his mother with chopsticks, so he had to eat obediently.
"Isn't the second aunt's family leave ten days?" Sheng Lanlan asked cautiously.
"Didn't you come back ahead of schedule, your second uncle is not in a hurry, I am in a hurry, if you stay in this place any longer, you children will be ruined, what can you do in the future, you can't also go to the farm to cut trees and farm and repair machines!"
Zhao Jihong said this to his son Sheng Jiannan.
Sheng Jiannan put down the bowl and burped, "Mom, I'm done eating, and the logging is also very good, and I can exercise and earn money." You don't look down on lumberjacks, working people are the most honorable!"
If it weren't for your uncle's help this time, the matter of returning to the city might have been delayed, and your father has been ignoring it, but now I am finally relieved. ”
Zhao Jihong put vegetables into the silent Sheng Yanong bowl, "Eat more, I cooked all the white rice today, and we can eat white rice every day in the future." As he spoke, his eyes turned red.
Sheng Yanong pushed aside a spoonful of rice handed by his wife and sighed.
"Why are you sighing when the matter is done! Let you go to the Letters and Visits Bureau to urge you not to go, my brother went cheekily for us, and he was looking for someone and giving gifts to get things done, so that you can make it ready, you sigh?"
Sheng Jiannan and Sheng Lingling saw that the atmosphere was not right, and immediately finished the meal and left the table.
Sheng Lanlan didn't move, and said with a smile: "It's great to be able to go back to the city, the second aunt is really capable! ”
"It's still Lan Lan who can speak. ”
Thinking of the suffering of so many years and a few children who grew up on the farm, Zhao Jihong felt full of grievances. The in-laws can't rely on it at all, and the husband is the master who is silent. Fortunately, there is a mother's family as a backer, and this time it was also the mother's family who received the news, so she hurriedly sent a telegram to let her go back.
Now it's finally good, and when I return to the city, I must let a few children go to the provincial key experimental primary school.
