Chapter 68: SARS (1)
Originally, he was going to pick up his luggage and belongings and leave the city, but when he walked to the door, he ran into Zhou Mengyao, Zhou Mengyao looked at his packed bags, and said to him rationally: "Shao'an, where are you going?" ”
"Go home, go back to my hometown," Mr. Zhang responded.
"Shao'an, have you seen the news and SARS on the radio? Now that trains and passenger cars have basically stopped operating for the prevention and control of SARS, where can you go? ”
Zhang Shao'an was silent after hearing this, because he didn't know how to face the woman in front of him who was rejected by himself, Zhou Mengyao saw that he didn't speak, and continued: "Shao'an, I know that the person in your heart is not me, and I have nothing to say about this, but you don't have to leave, and there is no car to let you leave now, so you can't leave for a while, just accompany me to buy masks and some alcohol or disinfectant for a while, and if you want to leave after SARS, then I won't stop you, do you think it's okay?" ”
After all, Zhang Shaoan is a college student from a science class, and of course he knows the seriousness of SARS, so he agreed to Zhou Mengyao and wait for SARS to end in Guangdong.
At this moment, all the information about "SARS" has spread, and many people are frightened by it, and buy disposable masks, pharmaceutical alcohol, disinfectants, etc. in large quantities as protection.
Zhang Shaoping's Hope Primary School also had an early holiday, and when he sat together facing the SARS information that appeared on the TV, the first thing that came to mind was Zhang Shao'an in Guangdong.
Oh, yes! Since Zhang Shao'an ran away from home and went to Guangdong, there has been no news of him in this family, including Yuan Xiaoxia in Bangbangtun, who received the first message of SARS on TV or radio.
Their first consideration was not SARS, but whether Zhang Shaoan, who was in Guangdong, was safe.
The elderly Zhang Youcai leaned on the sofa, the rapid wheezing made him cough, the wrinkles on his face and the snow-white hair on the top of his head are gifts from every passing time, if people want to say that they can get something without labor in this life, it should be age!
Zhang Fugui sat next to his elderly father Zhang Youcai, Li Jianmei also sat next to Zhang Fugui, only Zhang Shaoping and An Yuran sat on the chairs, but all of them were staring at the TV, not so much that they cared about SARS as they cared about Shao'an, after all, Shao'an was in the most serious place of SARS, so the whole family was worried.
"Rich! What's on the TV? Zhang Youcai said in an old and weak voice.
"Dad, the TV is talking about SARS! Now we can try not to go out without going out, even if we want to go out, we have to wear a mask! Zhang Fugui said.
Zhang Youcai continued to use his old and weak voice to say to Zhang Shaoping, who was sitting in the chair: "Shaoping, has your brother Shao'an come back?" Now it's so dangerous out there, you go look and see where he's gone? ”
"Grandpa, Shao'an is not at home, Shao'an is now in Guangdong! He didn't come back. ”
"What? Oh, why did my poor An An go to Guangdong? Hey, how poor am I, I don't know what's going on? Zhang Youcai said with a whimper.
Because Zhang Youcai was too excited, the whole person coughed more violently all of a sudden, which is no wonder, after all, Zhang Youcai is old, and his body is not as energetic as when he was young, so as long as he is a little excited, this whole body is uncomfortable, Zhang Fugui, who was sitting on the side, helped him level his chest with his hand, smoothed his breath, and said: "Dad, don't worry, An An Tafu has a great life, nothing will happen, you can relax your heart!" ”
Although Zhang Fugui comforted his father Zhang Youcai like this, he was more anxious than everyone in this family, after all, Shao'an was his doll, and he had never been scolded since he was a child, only the time Zhang Shao'an took Yuan Xiaoxia home to make trouble, but when it comes down, trouble is trouble, no matter how Zhang Shao'an is also his son, he is no less worried than others.
Just as the family was discussing how to get in touch with Shao'an, Zhang Shaoping stood up and said to Zhang Fugui: "Dad, I don't think it's better for me to go to Guangdong!" In this way, it is good to know whether Shao'an is safe or not. ”
As soon as Zhang Shaoping's words fell, Zhang Fugui said in a loud voice: "Don't go, I don't know where Shao'an is now?" If you go in case there's a bad one, then ...... That...... So what do you want me to do? Even if you don't think about me, you have to think about Yuran. ”
After Zhang Shaoping was reprimanded by his father Zhang Fugui, he stood aside and didn't dare to say anything, he gave An Yuran a look, An Yuran stood up from the chair, and said to Zhang Fugui cordially: "Dad, Shaoping is right, if we don't go, how can we know if Shao'an is safe?" In addition, I am a doctor, and now that the country needs me, I should contribute my own strength, so I decided to apply to the county hospital to apply for volunteer support in Guangdong. ”
After Zhang Fugui heard this, he said impatiently: "Yuran, you can't follow Shaoping to fool around, now many people are still in a hurry to avoid SARS, why do you still want to go to the land in a hurry?" ”
Zhang Shaoping and An Yuran looked at each other, and after getting along for a long time, he could convey the information of each other's hearts to each other with his eyes, so the two of them said to Zhang Fugui categorically with bright eyes: "Dad, we have decided, we are going to Guangdong and become volunteers, so that we can also see if Shao'an is safe." ”
"Don't go, don't mention it to me again, if you dare to go to Guangdong secretly, then I will ...... Then I will hit my head and die, and you will regret it for the rest of your life," Zhang Fugui said.
Zhang Shaoping and An Yuran knew that no matter how they told their father Zhang Fugui, they would not agree, so they simply told their grandfather Zhang Youcai, after all, Zhang Fugui listened to Zhang Youcai's words the most, and he didn't dare to disobey him.
Zhang Shaoping walked up to his grandfather Zhang Youcai, and said in his ear in a kind language: "Grandpa, we plan to go to Guangdong as volunteers, so that we can know if Shao'an is safe, but my father does not agree with us to go, you can give a comment, talk to my father, and let him agree that I and Yuran will go to Guangdong as volunteers together." ”
Zhang Youcai said in an old and weak voice: "Your father is also for your good, so don't go, after all, it's dangerous over there." ”
Zhang Shaoping felt that this didn't make sense, so he simply changed his words so that his grandfather could understand, and he continued to say to Zhang Youcai's ear: "Grandpa, you joined the army and fought in the early years, and our family's current situation can be so good, so it all depends on the good policies implemented by the state?" Now that the country needs us, should we actively respond to the country, put our own life and death aside, and make our own modest contributions to the country? Grandpa, you said that Shaoping is not right. ”
Zhang Youcai was half a year of his life, so as long as it is good for the country and the people, even if he is at the forefront of the forefront, it is not ambiguous, and he heard what his grandson Zhang Shaoping said inspiringly, he hurriedly said: "Shaoping, good, good, good, since it is a good thing for the country and the people, then you have to go, but unfortunately grandpa is old, otherwise he must be in the front of you." ”
"Yes! Grandpa, but, but Dad won't agree, so you have to talk to Daddy! After all, Dad listens to you the most. ”
"Okay, okay, okay, I said," After Zhang Youcai finished speaking to Shaoping, he turned his head and said to Zhang Fugui: "Fugui, since Shaoping and Yuran are going to contribute to the country and the people, then let them go!" ”
"Dad, why are you scaring with them! In this news, it was also said that SARS had killed a few people, and if Shaoping and Yuran were allowed to go, it would ......"
"Rich! Although my father is old, his head is not confused, you have to think clearly about how our family got such a good situation now, you can't forget your roots! Dad is old, otherwise I will definitely go, since now Shaoping and Yuran are asking Ying to contribute to the country and the people, then you shouldn't stop it, not only can't stop it, but you also have to support them, anyway, Dad agrees to let them go, if you want to, just say something, if you don't want to, just stay on the side. ”
Zhang Fugui was embarrassed by Zhang Youcai's words, although he wanted to say something, but the matter was a foregone conclusion, no matter what he said, it was impossible, after all, it was Zhang Youcai who said nothing in this family, and as a son, he could only agree.
Zhang Shaoping and An Yuran, the young couple, saw that their father Zhang Fugui did not dare to continue to object, so they happily hurried to prepare to go to the county seat to sign up for volunteer service, after all, if the two of them went like this, they would not be able to go, and if they wanted to go to Guangdong, they had to participate in volunteer service, so that they could not only go to Guangdong unimpeded to participate in the rescue operation, but also take the opportunity to see Shao'an and see if he was safe and sound.
Just as Zhang Shaoping and An Yuran were about to go out, there was a sudden knock on the door, and the person who knocked on the door was none other than Yuan Xiaoxia from Bangbangtun.
It turned out that when Yuan Xiaoxia saw the news report on SARS, what she was most worried about was whether Shao'an was safe and secure in Guangdong, so she was full of worries, worried about whether Shao'an was safe and sound, in order to let herself know that Shao'an was safe, she was determined to go to Guangdong, but if she wanted to go to Guangdong, then someone had to take care of the family's affairs, just when she was so worried, her younger brother Yuan Jie saw the anxiety on her face, so he forced her to take over all the affairs of the family, so that she could go to Guangdong without worrying, Go find her sweetheart who she hasn't seen for a long time.
But Yuan Xiaoxia didn't know how to go to Guangdong alone, after all, the train or passenger car to Guangdong had been suspended, in order to be able to go to Guangdong, her first thought was to go to Zhangjia Village to find Shao'an's brother Zhang Shaoping, after all, she herself has no culture, she doesn't know how to go to Guangdong, even if she goes to Guangdong, she can't find Shao'an, so she made up her mind to go to Zhangjiacun to find Zhang Shaoping, and wanted him to think of a way, but what she never expected was that Zhang Shaoping and An Yuran had the intention of going to Guangdong.
