Yes, the old professor is too tall and too heavy, he really doesn't look like a terminal patient.

On his back, the old man's feet were almost on the ground. His flesh was as strong as a mountain, and it was overwhelming.

Originally, Liu Zhang's strength was okay. However, he did not sleep for a day and a night, and he overdrew a lot of mental power, and suddenly felt a weakness in his body. I couldn't walk a few steps, and I was panting and my heart was beating.

According to local customs, you can't change hands after you carry a dying patient, otherwise it will be a big bad luck, and it will be inconvenient for the three of them to help.

Coming down the stairs and putting the old man in the car, the journey seemed incredibly long today.

After settling down, Liu Zhang sat softly on the chair, and kept smoking, and it took a long time to ease up.

Boss Jin: "Liu Zhang, your face is a little pale, you haven't slept well, let's stare at it for a while." ”

"Okay. Liu Zhang nodded, he couldn't care about that much, threw the cigarette butt out of the car window, and closed his eyes.

Suddenly, he saw his father, who had been dead for many years, standing in front of him, still vomiting blood: "Son, Xiaozhang, help me." ”

"Daddy, Daddy, you're back, I miss you so much. Liu Zhang threw himself into his arms.

"I miss you so much. ”

"Xiao Zhang, what about the watch I gave, go sell it to raise money, the doctor said that as long as 20,000 yuan of medicine can cure my disease. Dad can finally come back to life, and our father and son can be together again. ”

"Ah, 20,000 yuan, I'll raise it right away. Liu Zhang's heart was full of boundless joy, and he shouted loudly: "Cheng Qi, Cheng Qi, come and see, Dad is back, Dad is saved, give me money." ”

Yan Chengqi appeared beside him, with a blue face: "I don't have any money." ”

"How is it possible, how can it be that there is no money, you and I have such a big business, so many houses, just sell one set. Liu Zhang kept tugging at her sleeve.

Yan Chengqi shook off his hand and said coldly: "Our money didn't fall from the sky, no money is no money, I'm sick like this, and I'm waiting for money to save my life! Husband, you choose, do you want me or your father?"

"No, I don't choose, I want it!" Liu Zhang woke up from his dream with a loud cry, and saw his tears falling down the face of the old professor below.

The old professor was still breathing heavily, and everyone else in the car was closing their eyes and pretending to sleep, and the old man who was only driving couldn't help but greet the female driver who grabbed the road with a national curse.

"Thinking day and night, I'm so tired. As soon as this person is tired, his feelings and spirit will be fragile. Hehe, the problem of mother and wife falling into the water at the same time will appear in a dream, it seems that it is not easy to choose anyone! Liu Zhang smiled bitterly and wiped his face.

When getting into the car, Liu Zhang kept an eye on it, and specifically asked the old professor's sons and daughters where the old man usually worked, and didn't meet another twenty-sixth floor. The weight of the old man's head is really terrifying!

Fortunately, he replied that the old professor worked on the upper floor of a two-story building on weekdays, which made Liu Zhang let out a long breath, and today he encountered a light job.

The old man's sons and daughters all had cars, and they followed behind Lao Yu's van and communicated with each other on the phone. Along the way, both of them kept asking their father if he was still angry?

In fact, the old professor is already in the dying stage, and he relied on medical equipment to maintain his life in the hospital a while ago, and now when he is sent home, there must be a pump. Many patients will be short-term after the tube is withdrawn, and according to local customs, if the patient dies on the way home, it is not beautiful.

Fortunately, the old professor still persisted, but Liu Zhang was in big trouble.

It turned out that the old man's former place where he used to work at the school was a building from the thirties of the last century, which was also considered an antique, and it was located in the most secluded part of the college, surrounded by large gardens and walking paths, and cars could not drive through it at all. You have to carry him on your back and walk about a kilometer to get to the ground.

When I arrived at the place, there were already staff members waiting there at the school, and when I saw Liu Zhang, who had carried the professor on his back, he said, "Please come with me." He hurried away and led the way.

Liu Zhang was still walking like the wind at the beginning, but gradually he only felt that his steps were getting heavier and heavier, and the old man on his back was getting heavier and heavier, just like a small mountain. Sweat seeped from his forehead, and he gasped heavily, exhaling his long white breath. There was a bitter taste of bile in his mouth, dry and astringent, and his lungs were also burning with pain.

The wind was so strong that it was carrying snow particles, and within half a day, my hands and face were so cold that I couldn't feel it.

"What am I doing, a good white-collar worker, but doing this kind of heavy work, God, am I messing with you?" Liu Zhang felt sorry for himself as usual: "Crazy, really crazy." Give up, it's a big deal not to make this money, it's just a thousand yuan, just write 10,000 words. As for Lao Jin, whatever, Lao Tzu is gone. But...... I really need this money! Not to mention Cheng Qi's illness, how can I break my promise to buy her a Christmas present? Didn't she want Yves Saint Laurent's eye cream? Her eyes were so beautiful, she deserved that bottle of eye cream...... I want to see her smile, to see her big, bright eyes. No matter how bitter it is, for the sake of that eye, everything is worth it. ”

"Old man, come on yourself, don't weigh your whole body on me. Liu Zhang's hands were slightly strengthened, and he said with a smile: "Life is a battle, you have to persevere, and I have to persevere!"

He gasped, he smiled hoarsely, and said softly: "Pull out the mountain and cover the world, the time is not good, what can I do?"

Suddenly, Liu Zhang felt the old professor's body behind him move, and the weight he pressed down was lighter. Then, a weak voice said, "Thank you!"

He was stunned: "Old man, you woke up, and you are almost to the ground." ”

Ahead was a small building with lights on, and it looked so hazy in the cold night and snow particles.

"Wake up, but I don't think it will last long, thank you, hard work. The old man said.

Liu Zhang comforted him: "Old professor, just wake up, that means you're fine." Don't say thank you, if you work part-time, just make some effort money, this is what I should do. ”

"How can it be okay, I know very well myself, I'm going to die soon, this is a return to light. Don't comfort me, I studied Western philosophy, and I have long understood the matter of life and death. What's your name?"

"Does the name matter...... I'll be Liu Zhang. ”

Old Professor: "Listening to what you just said, you should have read and been educated, young man, I don't thank you because you carried me." Shinong industry and commerce, each has its own position, and everyone has their own work. What I thank you for what you said earlier in the ward. When it's time to leave, I have no regrets about being able to go back to my job and take a look. ”

Liu Zhang gasped heavily, and his heart was about to jump out of his mouth: "Whew...... Call...... Old professor, your daughters are too fucked up, if you continue to argue like that, your old man will ride a crane west and send him directly to the funeral home, but I have nothing to do, how can I make your old money. ”

"Your lover is very beautiful, don't be in such a hurry, go slowly, young man, let's talk. The old man asked.

As soon as he said it, Liu Zhang grinned as if he was a junior brother in love: "It's beautiful, she is a fairy, and I'm really a little unworthy of her in my current situation." ”

Old man: "I heard it just now, what kind of gift are you going to buy her?" ”

"It's an eye cream, it's estimated to cost hundreds of dollars, women just want to be beautiful, and it makes people happy when they see it. ”

"It's good to be young!" the old man sighed faintly.

Liu Zhang: "Professor, to tell you the truth, my wife and I have a big problem with our personal finances, and we owe a lot of medicine to the hospital, but we can't afford it." You say, is it not worth it for me to spend so much money to buy her Christmas presents, and will she blame me for being a loser?"

"How is it possible, it is too late for her to be happy!" said the old professor softly: "There are many valuable things and good memories in our lives, and these things cannot be measured by money. Money is nothing, and I can't take it away at this time. What we can carry with us is the moment of happiness that we can feel in this life. I think your wife should be happy, and you will be happy. Isn't the meaning of life to make others happy, and then to make yourself feel happy? In the face of fate, don't admit defeat. Once you throw in the towel, there's nothing. Love, family and career. ”

"Thank you, teacher, I have always been a lazy person without a plan, and now that I understand, I know what I have to do. Liu Zhang took a deep breath: "Love the person you love, and then try to make yourself happy." ”

After the old man returned to the office, he left in just ten minutes, and the next thing was naturally busy, setting up a mourning hall, sending him to the funeral home, and helping to burn paper...... These are none of Liu Zhang's business, after staring there for a long time, when it was dawn, Liu Zhang went back to the hospital to deliver breakfast to Yan Chengqi, because of lack of sleep, he didn't dare to drive, so he took the subway to the set and wrote a day's draft.

Today's manuscript was written smoothly, and by four o'clock in the afternoon, he had finished writing today's 10,000 words. His physical and mental strength were on the verge of collapse, his temples were pounding, and his brain was aching faintly.

"It's better to buy a gift early and go back to spend this Christmas Eve with Cheng Qi, and then sleep beautifully. ”

Liu Zhang originally planned to get off the bus halfway to go shopping in the mall, but after calling Yan Chengqi in advance, he changed his mind.

Yan Chengqi said on the phone that her spirit has improved a lot today, and she does not feel tired after walking a long way in the hospital yard during the day: "Husband, if it goes on like this, maybe I will be discharged from the hospital in ten days and a half months." ”

The words were full of joy.

Liu Zhang was also happy for her: "Wife, you wait for me, I'll go back to the hospital immediately, don't you want to buy eye cream, let's just go together." ”

"Okay, great. ”

Yan Chengqi used to love shopping so much, and this time in the hospital really suffocated her.
