Wang Quan received a call from his brother Wang Yong from his hometown in the evening, saying that he had sent his old father on the train and asked Wang Quan to pick him up at the station the next morning. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Early the next morning, Wang Quan and his son Wang Nianjun rushed to the West Railway Station.

Wang Quan knew that the railway station no longer sells platform tickets, so he provided the old father's ID number to the staff at the entrance of the love channel, and after the staff inquired about the number of trains, seats and ages of the old man, he asked Wang Quan and his son to enter the station to pick up people on the platform.

Wang Quan and Nian Jun had just arrived on the platform for a short time, and the train entered the station, and the father and son found the No. 8 sleeper car, one of them guarding a door. The passengers on the bus all got off and didn't see the old man come out. Wang Quan told the conductor, and when he got on the train, he saw that the old father was standing alone in the aisle, holding a leatherette travel bag in his arms, and was anxiously looking out!

"The big baby is afraid that I will get out of the car and run away by myself, so that I can't see you and leave this carriage." The old father got off the train and said to Wang Quan as he walked, "The train is running so fast now, a dream has not been completed, and thousands of miles have escaped. ”

Wang Nianjun hugged the old man and said with a smile: "Grandpa, what you say is really interesting, but there are some unclear things that can only be said in our house after coming here, not outside, otherwise people will laugh at it." ”

The old man glared at his grandson, and said angrily: "The people in the city laugh at us, and we laugh at the people in the city, do you think that the people in the city talk so reasonably, for example, the place where the train lies down and sleeps, it should be called a sleeping bunk, but they call it a sleeper, in our countryside, livestock sleeping on the ground is called 'sleeping'!" Besides, grandpa has been used to talking casually, and he can talk about it wherever he wants, and he can say it if he wants to, and you just took off your crotch pants for a few days, so you took care of grandpa, saying that this shouldn't be that shouldn't! ”

"Grandpa, you still treat me as a child, I'm twenty-six years old this year!"

"Why don't you marry a daughter-in-law at the age of twenty-six?"

"Didn't find a suitable one."

"I see that Xiaoni in the city is not bad-looking, and she can be my granddaughter and daughter-in-law if she pulls any one."

The grandfather and grandson followed Wang Quan out of the train station and got into a taxi, and the topic of "looking for a daughter-in-law" was not finished. Wang Quan knew that his old father's words were thick, and he could talk about a topic for a long time, so he interjected and said to him on the side: "Dad, my brother's health is okay?" ”

"Well, well, look at him a few years older than you, and he can pick rabbits in the fields with his legs and feet."

"Your body should be fine, I'll take you to the hospital for a check-up tomorrow."

"At my age, I live one day and earn one day, and I am not afraid of anything in my body, I will check it when I go to the hospital, and I will die to understand it."

The old man said nonchalantly.

Nian Jun said: "How can grandpa talk about mildew, when I marry a daughter-in-law and give birth to a son, I want you to tell your great-grandson the story of 'a long, long time ago'!" ”

"My old-fashioned stories, my son and grandson don't like to hear them anymore, are my great-grandchildren still willing to listen to them!" The old man sighed. He looked out the car window and couldn't help but say to himself, "The houses in the city are so high that you can pick up the stars if you climb to the top floor." ”

When he rested at night, Wang Quan arranged his old father in the house where he and Wang Yueying lived, Wang Yueying slept in the study, and he only slept on the sofa in the living room wrapped in a blanket.

"As the saying goes, the body is not as safe as the heart, and the room is not as wide as the heart." When the old father heard Wang Quan say that the house at home was not spacious enough, he enlightened his son and said, "As long as the family is free of disasters and diseases, life is comfortable, and the house is smaller, what are you afraid of." I see that the floor of the house in the city is cleaner than the bed in the countryside, otherwise you are still sleeping on the bed, and I will spread out a mat and lie on the ground. ”

Wang Quan naturally would not agree to let the old man sleep on the floor.

Because they were all worried about the old man's illness, although the family talked and laughed with the old man on the surface, they were in a heavy mood and rested early in the evening. Of course, rest is not the same as falling asleep, Wang Quan and Wang Yueying did not close their eyes in the middle of the night.

When she got up early the next morning, Wang Yueying handed a bulging envelope to Wang Quan and said: "This is the 20,000 yuan that was just withdrawn from the bank yesterday, you bring it all, if the old man is not a good disease, you look for an acquaintance in the hospital, try to let him stay in the hospital as soon as possible, and strive to have surgery as soon as possible, and we will take it again when the money is not enough." ”

"You also moved the fixed deposit that you are going to buy a house in the future?"

Wang Yueying nodded and said: "Take out the deposit, you can save it again when you have money in the future, if the old man is not treated in time, he will never come back." ”

Wang Quan felt that his eyes were hot, and silently took the money. I was silently thinking in my heart, if my old father didn't suffer from cancer, I would have no opinion on letting me live in this 90-square-meter old house for the rest of my life.

Wang Quan took his father to the hospital early, but his father couldn't eat because he had to do a check-up, and he didn't eat a grain of rice.

Nian Jun ate something casually and went to work quickly, Wang Yueying was unsettled and restless at home alone. When she and Wang Quan were separated, she served Wang Quan's father as her own father in the countryside, and Wang Quan's father was willing to discuss with Wang Yueying if he had anything, and he also treated her as his own daughter. Wang Quan's brother said on the phone that after the old man may have cancer, Wang Yueying secretly shed tears twice, and now, she can only silently pray in her heart that the old man is safe.

When the morning trumpet sounded in the compound of the agency, Wang Yueying heard a knock on the door, she hurriedly opened the door, and saw that Wang Quan was not sad, but full of spring breeze, and the tired face of the old father behind him was also full of smiles. Wang Yueying immediately understood everything in her heart, and the heart hanging in her throat fell into her stomach with a "bang".

Wang Quan told Wang Yueying that some of his father's test results had not yet come out, but the doctor said that his disease was definitely not cancer, and the preliminary diagnosis was thyroid nodules, and the nodules were not very large, not only could he not have surgery, but he did not even need to take medicine. "My dad didn't eat in the morning, and he had a lot of blood drawn in the hospital, so we simply ate a little at noon. You fry a few more dishes in the evening, and you call Nianjun to eat at home tonight, let's celebrate. ”

When sitting at the table and preparing for dinner, the family laughed and laughed, Wang Nianjun saw a kind father who was different from the past, and Wang Quan also saw an obedient son who was different from the past.
