"What is your relationship with Bed 216?" The nurse at the toll booth looked up at him suspiciously, and saw that this man was tall and had a hearty face, and he couldn't say how handsome he was, but he felt more than calm when he was particularly stunned.
"I am his son-in-law." When Xu Changlin said this, he didn't take it with any stumbling, which was very natural.
The nurse immediately believed it, after all, no matter what the relationship, money is the most real. As long as she can pay the medical bills, she won't run away in debt, what is she worried about?
Immediately, she settled the expenses and reported them to Xu Changlin, watching him take out a roll of money and put a lot of it here for flowers. Immediately, the nurse couldn't help but glance at him, and felt that the son-in-law of the family was very kind.
After so many years in the toll office, she has seen a lot of things that tear her face for money and don't recognize her flesh and blood, but it is rare to simply hand over the money like Xu Changlin, so she is particularly impressed by him.
A few days later, when Tang's mother rushed over with beads of sweat on her head, hurriedly wrapped a handkerchief and the school's salary, she found that the outstanding medical expenses had been made up.
Seeing her inexplicably tangled expression, the nurse at the toll office immediately misunderstood, and Tansheng asked, "Why, he is not your son-in-law?" ”
Tang's mother hurriedly replied: "Yes, that's right, the child didn't say anything about it, but I didn't expect to come and hand it over quietly." ”
"Yo, that's a rarity, big sister! Not only did he make up the arrears, but he also paid a lot of money in advance, such a good son-in-law is really too little! The nurse couldn't help but sigh, and looked at her several times with envy on her face.
For a while, it made Tang's mother so happy that she couldn't keep her mouth shut. "Well, that's what this kid is, simple." After thanking the nurse, she hurried to the ward, and when she saw Dad Tang lying silently on the bed again, without a word of exchange with Xu Changlin, a wave of dissatisfaction immediately rose.
She walked over, took out the lunch box in her net pocket, and said to the two, "Why don't you talk, aren't you lonely?" ”
Dad Tang: "......"
He looked at her in surprise, frowning, not knowing what kind of nonsense she was talking about.
On the contrary, Tang's mother was calm and calm, and she affectionately started a family routine with Xu Changlin, which made Tang's father even more puzzled. Her attitude towards Xu Changlin has always been good, but why did her attitude suddenly rise from warm water to boiling water, and she was like a family?
But I didn't know that after the meal, Tang's mother pulled Xu Changlin to the end of the corridor, thanked him again and again, and said gratefully: "Xiao Xu, Tang Tang's father's medical expenses have cost you a lot, and I will definitely pay you back in the future." ”
Xu Changlin smiled indifferently: "Mom, you don't have to be so angry. If I call you Mom, you can't watch my dad lying on the hospital bed and ignore it, and it should be possible to help a little. ”
Hearing this, Tang Ma couldn't recognize it and sighed, "You are a good boy." ”
She patted him on the shoulder, seeing that his attitude was resolute, she didn't say anything more, but the ice in her heart had already melted little by little. Recalling the bits and pieces since Tang Tang brought him into the house, this man is not good at rhetoric, but everything he does is extremely reassuring.
His calm personality and meticulous care for Tang's father won Tang's mother's favor.
It is said that there is no filial son in front of the bed for a long time, but Xu Changlin is not a son, he can do his best to take care of Tang's father, without mentioning the hardship and tiredness at all, how can such a move not move Tang's mother?
Don't say anything else, just look at the four-bed hospital number in this ward, only this son-in-law of his own family has done this, which is also the envy of other people.
In such a day and night relationship, Tang's mother has already recognized him and is willing to accept him as her family.
Tang Ma looked at this tall man standing upright in front of her, and couldn't help laughing: "Go home and have a good rest, I'm too tired these days, don't be busy coming over at night." Tomorrow happens to be the weekend, and I don't have classes, so I'm here with your dad tonight. Go back! ”
Hearing this, Xu Changlin nodded in response, caught the bus, and returned to the Tang family's courtyard.
I saw that the small courtyard that was lively and noisy on weekdays was exceptionally calm today. Xu Changlin was slightly puzzled, opened the door and went in to take a look, and found that there was no one inside. When I walked to the door of Tang Steel's room, I found that the door was locked from the outside.
At that moment, he pushed the door panel, making a rattling sound, and suddenly woke up Tang Gang, who was sleeping soundly. "Huh?! Sister, are you back? Open the door, I'm going to the toilet! ”
He rushed to the door with an anxious voice, shouting through the door.
Xu Changlin was silent for a moment and replied, "I'm not your sister." ”
Suddenly hearing his voice, Tang Gang's dazed head was stunned for a second, and then reacted quickly. "Brother-in-law, open the door for me! My sister - shut me up inside! ”
He was almost crying, like he was in prison!
Xu Changlin tugged on the lock and said softly: "Without the key, I can't help." ”
This sentence made Tang Gang's heart burst into tears in an instant. "Brother-in-law, can't you find it? My sister must be hiding on the door frame! ”
He swore an oath, Xu Changlin stretched out his hand and touched it, and sure enough, he touched a key, but he quietly put it back. "I didn't find it, where did your sister go?"
Tang Gang looked depressed and complained: "There is an event in her school, and there is a writing competition, and she said that she was going to give awards today, so she went to school." His heart was very bitter, and he said depressedly: "Why do you say she has to lock me up?" I know it's wrong, and I'm definitely not going out to cause trouble again. ”
But no matter how much he promised, Tang Tang's credit had been completely declared bankrupt, so he locked him in the house before going out and asked him to study hard.
Of course, Xu Changlin knew her intentions, so he didn't unlock the door, but went back to the house to change his clothes, and said, "I'll go to the school to look for her and see if I can bring your sister back as soon as possible." ”
"Okay, thank you, brother-in-law!" Tang Gang shouted gratefully behind the door, which immediately made Xu Changlin smile and raised the corners of his mouth.
By the time I arrived at the school, it was already half dark, and there were more people on campus. There were those who hurried to study in the evening, and there were also those who went to watch the results of the Chinese Department writing competition, and Xu Changlin inquired a little and followed the flow of people to find the classroom.
There were already a lot of people sitting in the spacious classroom, and when I entered through the back door, I heard a constant stream of joints buzzing in the whole direction.
Xu Changlin found a vacant seat in the back row and sat down, but his excellent eyesight saw the expressions of the older teachers at the front at a glance.
Director Chen sat at the head of the judges' seat, wrinkled his brows and said angrily: "This result is not suitable!" Writing is the most important character, not only looking at the text but not looking at the person, but also considering the writer's own character and daily appearance, while convincing people with literature, we must also convince people with morality. Therefore, as the director of teaching, I would like to advise all the teachers of the Chinese Department to carefully consider the results of this excellence award. ”
The wording he said was strict and solemn, which made the expressions of all the teachers present solemn for a while.
Tang Tang's head teacher couldn't help but defend his students: "Director Chen, Tang Tang's problem has also been understood by our department, she is not young, and it is understandable that she has a normal willingness to marry, not to mention that she also reported to the department in time a while ago, so it is not a big problem." ”
Hearing this, Director Chen's face immediately drooped, and his face turned cold, "It's not a big problem?" Who made the decision, isn't it your dean? ”
His tone was aggressive, and his eyes were pressed tightly on several people like locked prey, and immediately silenced several teachers in the Chinese Department for fear of causing trouble to his own people.
Only Tang Tang's head teacher stiffened his head and said, "Regardless of Dean Shen's affairs, this is my personal opinion after the investigation. In a word, he actually carried all the consequences.
"Whew!" Director Chen glanced at him coldly and snorted coldly, "Your personal opinion? That doesn't represent the collective. What's more, can your so-called investigation be more comprehensive and fully grasped by me? In my opinion, you are simply wrong to admit this student! The political review at the beginning was not done well, but now there is a problem, and Comrade Shen Changgeng will inevitably have to bear great responsibility! ”
After turning a corner, Director Chen actually related this matter to Dean Shen, which made several teachers of the Chinese Department can't help but cry bitterly in their hearts. They glanced at each other and knew exactly what he was coming from.
It was simply because of Tang Tang's incident that he challenged Dean Shen!
As the leader of the Chinese Department, Dean Shen has profound literary achievements, has a place in the contemporary literary circle, and has maintained a relatively close relationship with many people in the society, which can be described as a wide range of friends.
Moreover, as a sharp knife in the war years, he repeatedly used his pen as a weapon to attack the enemy, dealt a severe blow to the enemy's arrogance, and effectively aroused the revolutionary enthusiasm of the masses.
After the college entrance examination was restored in 1978, he was rehired as the dean of the Chinese Department as soon as possible, and returned to the school to take charge of various tasks, which was extremely advantageous and popular in all aspects.
It stands to reason that he should not have a conflict with the dean of education who is in charge of all kinds of miscellaneous things, but for the vacant position of vice principal, Director Chen listed him as the number one competitor, staring at his various mistakes, ready to pull him down at any time.
Tang Tang's incident just gave him an excuse to take the opportunity to make trouble, and if he didn't seize this opportunity, he would be sorry for himself! Therefore, Director Chen clung to this issue tightly, and mentioned it again and again, just to make a big incident, and finally made Shen Changgeng apologize and firmly hold the position of vice principal in his hands.
His abacus can't be said to be bad, but he didn't expect to encounter a hard stubble today!
