Chapter 71
Fan Shengmei has been very sleepy, tired, and irritable since she went to work. But she can only cope with it with a strong spirit. It was not only her smiling face that needed to be beaten, but also her skin, who barely slept all night, and finally her father gave way to the bedside, and her mother took into account that she had to go to work to earn a salary, so she barely slept with Lei Lei for more than two hours. Her skin was repelled by even the liquid foundation, so she naturally couldn't let the loose powder adhere to it obediently, and her face was extremely gray in the sun.
I don't know how many cups of tea and coffee I have drunk, and when Fan Shengmei entered the pantry again to make instant coffee, a colleague came over quietly and said with a smile: "Xiao Fan, please do me a favor, I was late several times this month, and there is a record of punching in, please be merciful." I'm a house slave with a debt, and I'll drink the northwest wind after deducting those. ”
Fan Shengmei was busy and smiled, "The assessment hasn't come to me yet, I'll check it for you a few times, and I'll send you a text message later." But these records are dead, and they can't be changed unless the program is modified. ”
"It's not a change...... I mean, you made a mistake in counting the tardiness numbers as if you didn't see me late. Hey, please, please. ”
"This is really not something that I can change if I say it, there are a few people who handle this statistic, and if I change it, it will be found out by others. I'm so sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. ”
The colleague walked away in a huff, obviously dissatisfied with Fan Shengmei's reply, and it is estimated that a small beam was formed like this. But Fan Shengmei is helpless, if this kind of cheating is discovered, her job will be lost. What else does she have on her hand besides work? Now only work is her lifeline.
She took a sip of her coffee and went back to work. Maybe it's because I added a lot of coffee today, and the coffee is unusually bitter.
didn't wait for Fan Shengmei to take a second sip, an unfamiliar mobile phone number called. Fan Shengmei is now a little noisy, and when she saw the unfamiliar number, she suspected that it was her debt collector brother who was connected to the other end, so she didn't answer it. But the number relentlessly came in again. Fan Shengmei reluctantly walked to the health department and got up the phone. At the other end, a strange man said sharply: "Your mother is talking to you, how did you do it." ”
Fan Shengmei was inexplicable, thinking that someone had made the wrong call, but soon her mother's voice came from the phone. "Ami, we've been locked out by building security......"
"Ah, didn't I tell you not to go out of the building, the building has a curfew."
"No, I can't. Lei Lei wants to come out to play, but he can't control it, and he will cry if he doesn't let him play. But when we came back, the security guard wouldn't let us in, saying we didn't have any cards. I can't ask for anything. We haven't eaten lunch yet. Fortunately, a kind person borrowed a mobile phone to call you, what should I do, you quickly think of a way, Lei Lei was so hungry that he screamed. ”
"Didn't you bring the money downstairs?"
"Bring it, five dollars."
"You give the phone back, thank you. I called the security guard and talked to them. ”
Fan Shengmei stared straight for a moment before she pulled out the phone in the security room exhausted. As soon as he heard that the voice was familiar to Xiao Zheng, he hurriedly smiled and said, "Xiao Zheng, my mother called just now." said that it was locked out, yes, it was two old couples with a small child. ”
"Oh, I didn't believe it when they said it was your family, how can I live there. Miss Fan, I really can't help this, you know the rules, if other residents see me letting people in without permission, the boss will fire me. ”
Fan Shengmei felt that this conversation sounded familiar, "Xiao Zheng." Accommodating and accommodating, helping, just once, I will make up the visa immediately after work. ”
"It would kill me to make up for it after work. I'll change shifts when you get off work, and the next shift will have to tell the leader. Why don't you leave a card for your parents? ”
Fan Shengmei still smiled, and her smile became softer and softer: "Xiao Zheng, friends can help, you ask my father to sign on my behalf and let them in." Even if you help a friend. Once, just once, they were freezing outside in the cold, and they hadn't eaten yet. ”
Xiao Zheng smiled: "Friends are exempt, you can't climb high, and your Miss Fan has never treated us as friends." Although your neighbors 2201 and 2203 didn't treat us as friends, they still gave us some Christmas gifts and treated us as people. I can't take that risk for you, our family is still waiting for my paycheck. ”
Fan Shengmei's face turned pale with anger, and at the critical moment, the tenant is still the tenant, and the difference comes. Usually polite, that's all fake. But Fan Shengmei still had to say in a good voice: "Then the last request, let my mother answer the phone, I'll talk to them, don't trouble you." ”
Fan Shengmei's mother picked up the phone again, and Fan Shengmei said: "Mom, you wait for more than an hour, alas, I'll take half a day off." ”
"Ouch, don't ask for leave, deduct money. Don't, work hard, earn money, don't make your boss look down on you, and don't call you during working hours. ”
The phone was hung up by Fan's mother, and Fan Shengmei couldn't come back to his senses for a while. After a long time of returning to her soul, she thought that Xiao Zheng's rejection of her was the same as her rejection of her colleague just now. Life is absurd.
Qu Xiaoxuan took advantage of lunch time to rush to the hospital to verify the achievement of Weibo's forced donation, but unexpectedly met that Dr. Zhao was also at the child's bedside. "Earned!" Qu Xiaoxuanxin said, her eyes suddenly forgot to count the down jackets and duvets piled up at the end of the bed, and she only cared about circling around Dr. Zhao who was checking on his injured leg. It wasn't until the child saw her and called her aunt loudly that she was pulled back from the ninefold realm back to the dark world.
Dr. Zhao glanced up at Qu Xiaoxuan, but only smiled, and lowered his head to operate. Qu Xiaoxuan's soul flew away for a few seconds, pretending to look down at the down jacket. But she took out a dark green down skirt from a pile of down, and was angry, and when she glanced at the tag below, she knew whose house it was, and immediately dialed over.
"Hey, what are you doing with a dress? I made it clear that it was a boy. ”
Qu Xiaoxuan's friend smiled: "My mother said, wear it for you, don't learn from girls who fork two black legs these days, it's like forgetting to wear pants to go out." Haha, just kidding. When I saw the skirt when I took the pants, I thought that the child's legs were not strong enough, and it was better to put on the skirt, and I didn't need to wear shoes when I tied it up and down. Anyway, if they don't like to use it, they will wear it for the child's mother. I also gave some money, you say, how to treat. ”
"Well, in the evening, you can decide the location, and hang up the Weibo account. I didn't expect you to be quite careful, and you will be blessed with someone in the future. ”
The child's mother kept smiling at Qu Xiaoxuan, and when Qu Xiaoxuan finished talking on the phone, she said with a smile: "Your friends are so good, but you don't want to drink a sip of water and leave." Thank you so much. ”
"Thank you, in Uncle Lei Feng's words, this is what I should do."
Dr. Zhao burst out laughing as he listened to the nondescript words. "You, quick, where to come, I want to concentrate on work."
Qu Xiaoxuan's eyebrows jumped twice, and she quickly rushed over and kissed the little boy. However, she was brave, and she also rushed over to kiss Dr. Zhao's face before leaving. What the? He said that if he broke off his relationship, he would break off his relationship? Of course, you can't have the final say in the affairs of two people. She didn't say anything, and what Dr. Zhao said didn't count!
Dr. Zhao was stunned, looked back at the equally surprised nurse, and shut up.
Fan Shengmei ran to the bus station as soon as she got off work, ran to the subway when she got off the bus, and hurried home in a hurry. I saw my parents sitting in the leeward with cold lips and purple lips, and a scarf or something wrapped around Lei Lei, who was running around happily, as if no one was fine. Approaching, seeing clearly the tears in her mother's eyes, Fan Shengmei was sad. She led her parents into the building, and when she saw the eyes of the security guards who had changed shifts, she knew that they had already spread the word. What else could it be, it was nothing more than deceiving her as a tenant. Fan Shengmei gritted her teeth, but there was no way. If you complain about the property, people will ignore the tenants, and they wish that all the tenants would be emptied, so as to save them the difficulty of management. People are poor and are bullied. Fan Shengmei has always known.
In the elevator, Fan Shengmei asked strategically: "What does Lei Lei eat at noon?" ”
"Raw fried buns." Lei Lei said loudly, obviously satisfied.
Fan Shengmei's face darkened, "Haven't your parents eaten?" Gave it all to him? ”
"We old people, when we are hungry, we will be hungry, so can't we eat flatbread?"
Fan Shengmei looked at her parents who were cold, hungry and tired. My heart began to waver. Is her heart too hard, should she take her credit card to overdraft?
Entering 2202, Fan's mother began to busily divide the pie. The first flatbread was given to Fan's father, the parent; The second one was given to Fan Shengmei, and Fan's mother said that she had worked hard all day, so she should eat quickly. Mother Fan herself was not in a hurry to eat, and began to boil water first. Fan Shengmei put down her bag, washed her hands and removed her makeup, and when she saw her father sitting outside the door again, she was not in a hurry to eat the flatbread, but hurried to get over the addiction to smoking. Her mother sat by the kettle, her head tilted and dozing off. Lei Lei was talking to his grandfather in the hallway. Fan Shengmei was miserable in her heart, standing in front of her mother, staring at her mother in a daze.
The water boiled, the spout of the kettle made a sharp scream, Fan Mu woke up suddenly, and staggered up to carry the kettle. Fan Shengmei hurriedly stretched out her hand to take the lead.
"Mom, give me fifty, I'll buy something to eat, you haven't eaten for a day, and you've been freezing for another day, you can't just eat flatbread."
"Don't give, eat flatbread! Anyway, Lei Lei ate meat at noon. The days ahead are over, and you'll only be paid next month. If you want to eat good, eat it in the cafeteria at noon. ”
"In the days to come, people must be satisfied. Give me the money, at least buy a few eggs. ”
Fan's mother took a bite of the flatbread with boiling water, thought for a while, and then gave Fan Shengmei fifteen yuan, "Go buy two catties of eggs, add a packet of soy sauce, and ask the little girl to borrow a pot to cook two catties of boiled eggs, enough for us to eat for a few days." On the way, I saw flatbread steamed buns, and bought a few more. Today, I used twenty yuan, and I want to save it. But after thinking about it, he took out another ten yuan to Fan Shengmei, "Buy milk for Lei Lei, the kind of milk that is bags by bag." ”
Fan Shengmei put down the flatbread, she didn't eat it, not only did she have no appetite, her throat was dry and she wanted to cry. She put her bag on her back and went out silently. Overdraft, she decided to overdraw. Not only did they buy food, but they also found a hotel for their parents, otherwise, they would have to be tossed to death in less than three days.
But Fan's mother suddenly thought of something and called her daughter loudly, "Ami, I asked for you, next door to you...... The girl who drove last night promised to lend you money, and said that she would give you as much as she wanted. You ask her to borrow some, and pay her back immediately after next month's salary. ”
Qu Xiaoxuan? Mom asked Qu Xiaoxuan to borrow money? What does Qu Xiaoxuan mean? Fan Shengmei didn't move a step, she stood and thought for a while, her throat didn't hurt anymore, but she hardened her heart again. Well, just go to the supermarket and spend that twenty-five dollars.
Just when Qiu Yingying came back from work and walked out of the elevator, she greeted Fan Shengmei when she saw her, and was pushed back to the elevator by Fan Shengmei, and the two of them went up together. Qiu Yingying was inexplicable and asked, "Sister Fan, what's wrong?" Do you want me to do anything? ”
Fan Shengmei was silent until the last person went out, and she tactfully leaned on Qiu Yingying's shoulder, "Let Sister Fan cry for a while, don't ask." ”
Qiu Yingying was inexplicable, standing straight to support Fan Shengmei, making her sobble softly. Qiu Yingying really didn't dare to ask.
The elevator stopped for a while, opened the door for a while and reached the first floor, Fan Shengmei stood up straight, wiped away her tears and walked out of the hall with Qiu Yingying. Reluctant to let the security guard see the joke. Qiu Yingying heard that Fan Shengmei went to the supermarket, and she was worried about Fan Shengmei's state, so she went with her.
Andy wanted to go home later, but he walked around the bookstore. When she bought a few books she liked, she wanted to go home and read them immediately. She thought that by this hour, 2202 should be too late, and she could almost go back.
When I got out of the elevator, I didn't hear anything. It's just that when I saw Father Fan sitting against the wall again, he was sitting at the door. She greeted politely, but strangely, Father Fan drooped his head and ignored her. Suddenly, she noticed that half of the bread had fallen to the ground. Andy was shocked and hurriedly knocked on the door of 2202, "Is there anyone?" Is Fan Shengmei there? ”
No one answered inside, Andy hurriedly ran into the door to look, only to see the child sleeping quietly on the bed, while Fan's mother next to him was lying on the head of the bed and sleeping soundly. Andy was a little relieved, suspecting that Father Fan didn't rest well last night. I fell asleep while eating. She patted Fan's father on the shoulder, trying to wake him up and let him go into the house to sleep, but after pushing several times, Fan's father still didn't wake up, Andy panicked, and hurriedly raised Fan's father's chin, only to see that he was clenching his teeth and his face was wrong.
Andy didn't see it right and tried to give Fan's father artificial respiration. couldn't pry Father Fan's mouth open, so in a hurry, he quickly pressed the elevator and waited at the elevator door. The elevator opens. Sure enough, there was a man inside, she opened the elevator and asked urgently: "May I call an ambulance for emergency or send it over by myself?" Someone here is suddenly ill. ”
The person inside was stunned, "Maybe it's better to send it over yourself." ”
"Please do me a favor and carry people into the car. Thank you very much. ”
The man didn't look like Andy was a bad guy and didn't feel like a scammer. rushed out of the elevator, helped Andy carry Fan's father into the elevator together, and sent him to the car. As soon as Andy asked, it turned out that the nearest hospital was the one where Dr. Zhao was, and she happened to be familiar with the road, so she hurriedly rushed out.
Fan Shengmei and Qiu Yingying came back from the supermarket with shopping bags, only to see Fan's mother and Lei Lei who were sleeping, but Fan's father was missing. Although Fan Shengmei muttered in her heart, she didn't take it seriously, she suspected that her father might have asked her mother for some money, and when she went out to buy cigarettes, she bought cigarettes and alcohol, and her father did it himself. She put down what she was doing, afraid that her mother would catch a cold, and gently pushed her mother to wake up.
"Dad bought cigarettes? You won't let me bring it back with you. Mom, you lie in bed and sleep, I'll go down and wait for Dad to come back. Otherwise, you will not be allowed to enter. ”
"Your dad ......," Fan's mother rolled her eyes with difficulty, "I didn't say I was going to buy cigarettes." She took out the wallet hidden in her pocket and counted the bills, there were not many coins, she was familiar with them, yes, one was not a lot.
Fan Shengmei rolled her eyes, walked to the stairwell and shouted a few times at the stairs, but unfortunately no one answered. She didn't know what was going on, but nothing could happen to an old man, and it wasn't Lei Lei. She walked back and tried to move the chair back indoors, but when she looked down, she found half a flatbread underneath the chair.
"Mom, something happened to Dad, come and see."
Fan's mother staggered out with confused eyes, and Qiu Yingying also came out to look, and both of them saw half a flatbread on the ground. Fan's mother woke up at this time, "Old man, old man." Your dad is never willing to throw away food, your dad has an accident, your dad has an accident, you go and find it. Oops, I shouldn't have fallen asleep, I shouldn't have fallen asleep......"
Fan Shengmei was so anxious that her mobile phone rang, she saw that it was Andy's, she couldn't wait to pinch it off, and handed it to Qiu Yingying, "You help me pick it up, I'll go downstairs and ask the security guard." ”
Qiu Yingying picked it up and shouted: "Sister Fan, Sister Fan, don't go, your father had a stroke and sent Andy to first aid." Quick, let's go to the hospital. ”
"Ouch, go to the hospital." Fan's mother rushed to the elevator in a hurry. Fan Shengmei also ran to the elevator. But Fan Mu quickly thought of one thing, "Lei Lei, what should Lei Lei do." ”
"I'll take care of it." Qiu Yingying had no choice but to stay.
Walking into the elevator, Fan's mother took out her wallet and returned it to Fan Shengmei. Needless to say, Fan Shengmei also knows what her mother means, everyone knows that you can't get out of the hospital without shedding your skin, and the little money in your wallet is completely insufficient. Fan Shengmei was indifferent, she thought that even if she overdrew her only credit card, she would not be able to pay for her father's stroke in the end. I'm borrowing money again, this time borrowing a lot of money. Ask: Who borrows it?
found a 100 yuan, and the mother and daughter took a taxi to the hospital to retrieve a few changes. At this time, Fan's mother couldn't care about the money, so she went straight to the emergency room with her daughter.
When Fan Shengmei saw Andy, she rushed over and grabbed Andy's arm, and asked urgently, "What's the matter, does my dad want it?" ”
Andy was uncomfortable, but it was inconvenient to withdraw his arm at this time, so he had to lean sideways a little stiffly, and said, "The doctor told me just now, and my life was picked up." But the problem is very strict, and a series of inspections have to be done. I can't keep up with the specific medical terms, Chinese and English can't be compared, I'm sorry, wait for the doctor to come out and ask you clearly. And I might be late when I get home, so I'll have to ...... early."
"Thank you, if it weren't for you, my dad would be in big trouble when I got home. Thank you, thank you. (To be continued.) )
