Originally, Qi was thinking of going to see Professor Johns with Mai Dong, but who knew that he had an important meeting temporarily, and he really couldn't go away. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Song Xuetao volunteered, patted his chest and said: "With me, it's absolutely fine, even if someone robs me halfway, he will definitely rob me first, don't worry." ”

The two talked and laughed along the way, and they didn't think the road from the city to the suburbs was long. The car stopped at the foot of a mountain, and there was only one way up the mountain, which was winding like a duck's intestine. It's late autumn, and the vegetation in the suburbs has changed its costumes, red, yellow, and orange...... All kinds of colors complement each other, and the last performance of life is not gorgeous.

This is also the first day of the National Day, Mai Dong and they went out early, avoided possible congestion, and zigzagged all the way up, but saw a lot of beautiful scenery.

"This place is so beautiful, my mother doesn't want to leave......" Song Xuetao walked halfway up the mountain, looking at the beautiful scenery in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh.

Mai Dong smiled, remembering that last month, she took Song Xuetao and Qi to watch a large rice field and sunset in Dahe Town, "Hey, last time in my hometown, you also said that you didn't want to leave, you are the reincarnation of a demon monkey, will you be able to clone the technique?" ”

Song Xuetao pouted and played: "Lady, I'm so 'lustful', do you know on the first day?" ”

Mai Dong was amused by Song Xuetao, laughed a little breathlessly, and stopped halfway up the mountain to rest.

"Excuse me, is it Mai Dong and Xuetao?" The rings are evident in the voice, but they are not weak.

At the other end of the road, Professor Johns was already waiting there, wearing a pure black cheongsam with a stand-up collar and silver thread piping, with a white rabbit fur shoulder and a bun, standing there like a woman in an ink painting.

"It's us—" Song Xuetao subconsciously responded.

The two of them were stunned at this time, "Damn, this old lady is really an immortal, why is she getting younger and younger?!" ”

"Well, that's beautiful......"

"Hey, Mai Mai, do you think I can do this when I'm in my 70s?" Song Xuetao stabbed Mai Dong beside him and said.

Mai Dong pondered and said, "You can live until that time." ”

"Didn't you say 'the scourge will last for a thousand years'?"

"Well, but 'Millennial King 80,000-Year Tortoise', 70s is too young for you, and it definitely doesn't have this charm." Mai Dong raised his legs and walked forward.

"Mai Dong-" Song Xuetao howled, and when he saw that he had distanced himself from Mai Dong, he trotted two steps and caught up with Mai Dong, as if he had lost his strength, dragging the back hem of Mai Dong's clothes and dragging Mai Dong forward.

Professor Johns greeted them, and after giving them a big hug, he took their hands and said apologetically, "Tired, aren't you?" I'm really sorry, but this time my husband is also here, we are going to stay here for a while, maybe for a longer time, because my husband likes to be quiet, so we found the suburbs. It's hard for you to run so far. ”

"What did you say, we should have come to visit. And such a beautiful place is much better than the city center, you and your husband really have an eye. ”

"Yes, yes, others don't know about this place if they want to come, we are stained with your light, you see, I don't want to leave." Song Xuetao looked embarrassed.

"Haha, then just stay with my old woman......"

Professor Johns, with a kind smile on his face, led the two into the room.

The two looked around, but they didn't see Mr. Johns, and the antique living room was filled with a faint smell of sandalwood.

In the corridor outside the operating room of the People's Hospital of City A, Liao Qiuming was pacing back and forth, and the cigarette in his hand was brought to his mouth and put down.

In the operating room, the shadowless lamp shone with snow-white light, and the doctor in charge of the surgeon only showed a pair of brown eyes, with deep lines around it. Standing on the opposite side was his assistant, skillfully cooperating with the surgeon's movements.

After a while, Qi Zai rushed over. Liao Qiuming hurriedly greeted him, and his professional habits for many years made him speak in a straightforward tone to ordinary people, but he knew that the young man in front of him was not simple.

"Mr. Qi, Mai Dong left your phone number at the nurse's station, and I didn't contact her, so I can only contact you, I hope there is no delay in your affairs."

Qi Zai walked up, shook hands with Liao Qiuming, and said with a smile: "Captain Liao is really polite, Jialin is my brother-in-law, they are all a family, there is no delay." I don't know what's going on inside? ”

"This morning, the attending doctor said that he found signs of Jialin's severe coma, and the doctor did a brain CT, the result was not too good, and it was recommended to perform a craniotomy.

Liao Qiuming made a gesture of invitation, and the two sat down on the seats in the corridor.

After a while, Liao Qiuming looked at his watch, "Mr. Qi, I have to go, Jialin is still bothering you to help take care of it." ”

"Captain Liao, go get busy. Don't worry, I'll just keep it, I'll tell you when the surgery is done. Hello for me to ask Director Chen. ”

Qi Zai watched Liao Qiuming leave, and suddenly felt a little anxious in his heart, as if something was going to happen.

"Mai Mai, come, sit, we haven't seen each other for more than a year, haven't we?"

Professor Johns and Mai Dong sat on either side of a dark red carved wooden table, on which was a brown-red purple clay pot and the same set of four teacups, and the six gentlemen of the tea ceremony were in their place. The water began to make a rolling sound, and Professor Johns held the pot to make tea, with a respectful and skillful posture.

"Yes, the last time we saw each other was around this time, and you are getting younger and younger." Mai Dong looked at her respectfully as well, and even lowered his voice unconsciously.

"I've been in the U.S. for most of my life, but as I get older, I miss China more and more. This tea and cheongsam are my favorites, and I am afraid that I will not be able to put them down in this life......"

Professor Johns handed a cup of tea to Mai Dong, who raised his hands and took it, put it under his nose and sniffed it gently, and the tea was immediately fragrant.

"Madame is really good kung fu, this tea can be regarded as meeting Bole."

The old man on the other side laughed, "What do you say? ”

"When I was a child, I also went up to the mountains with my grandmother to pick tea, picking tea leaves that were born in the mountains, I couldn't name the varieties and names, and I came home to knead them, fry them, dry them, and then dry them, and they became my own tea cakes, and the taste was very different from those on the market.

Your tea must also be produced by a nearby farmer, right? The taste and aroma are a little familiar, but not exactly the same, I think you must know this tea very well, in order to grasp the temperature of the water and the time of soaking, in order to make it bloom to the extreme. ”

Professor Johns thought that Mai Dong was nothing more than two words of praise, but who would have thought that she would reveal the "old bottom", and he was stunned and smiled, holding Mai Dong's hand and casting an appreciative look.

"Mai Mai is a good girl, she doesn't forget her roots."

Mai Dong smiled slightly, with a touch of sadness, his eyes were clear, "How can you be willing to ......?"

"How's it going?"

"It's good, but I often have nightmares, and I've had nightmares almost every day for the last month. I dream of many, many people who can't see clearly, and every time I feel suffocated by someone's neck, and then wake up. ”

Professor Johns nodded, encouraging her to continue.

"But two days ago, I was crossing the street when I suddenly saw a real-life person appear in front of me. He's proposing with a ring and three blue enchantresses, and I don't know if he's proposing to me, but I feel like it's me...... I think maybe I grafted the fragments of my life and reorganized my memories to make that scene appear. Mai Dong looked a little distressed.

Professor Johns frowned imperceptibly and said, "Mai Mai, you have to tell me how you really feel. I know that you also took a minor in psychology in college, but as a psychiatrist, this is even more true as a psychologist, I think you should know very well. ”

Mai Dong smiled and nodded, "That person has always told me that he knows me, and the first time we meet, he can call me by name, although he once 'kidnapped' me, but in fact he never hurt me, and later he was seriously injured to save me." The more time I spent with him, the stronger that familiarity became. ”

Mai Dong paused, as if he had made some big decision, and said, "But I feel sorry for my husband, I already have a baby, and I don't want a rift between us......"

Hearing this, Professor Johns' teacup fell on the tray as soon as his hand loosened.

Professor Johns, though shocked, kept himself in check.

"Can you help me keep this a secret? My husband is still in the hospital and hasn't woken up, so I want to be the first to tell him. Mai Dong's face was full of happiness.

"You...... How long have you been pregnant? ”

"It's more than two months, the baby is very well-behaved, I guess it should be a well-behaved girl." Mai Dong touched his belly, as if talking to the child in his belly.

Professor Johns got up and went to the desk by the window lattice, brought a pen and paper, and said in her usual slow and kind tone, "First of all, congratulations, Mai Mai. Come, you try to draw as many scenes and characters as you have seen in your visions in the past few days, and you really don't know how to draw them, so you can replace them with simple words. I'll make a simple inquiry later, and then combined with your paintings, I'll make a treatment plan, do you think it's okay? ”

Mai Dong took the pen and paper, and his mood seemed very happy, "Okay, then you wait." ”

When Professor Johns went out, he looked back at Mai Dong who was immersed in painting, as if he was worried, and his expression was solemn.
