Chapter 39 Don't let the old man go with regrets

At this time, the nurse walked in from outside, saw me, and said, "What are you doing as a husband, your wife hasn't closed her eyes for three days and three nights, and you won't come to replace her?" It's too unusual. ”

I couldn't stop crying and laughing, and was about to explain that I had nothing to do with Xu Yanyan, when the nurse continued, "The old man is running out of time. Let's do the last filial piety of the younger generation. Don't be afraid of delaying the work, the leader has a bad impression of you and dare not ask for leave, ask for leave when you should ask for leave, who doesn't have an old time? If you can't do it, bring the leader of your unit and let him see it..."

The nurse is a straight person, she didn't say anything about me as Xu Yanyan's husband, and thought that it was not good for me to ask for leave at work, so she criticized me indiscriminately.

I couldn't help but say to the nurse, "You're mistaken, I'm not..."

"What are you not? Have I wronged you? Without waiting for me to explain, the other party interrupted directly, "I have seen a lot of you husbands, and there are always excuses, and there are always various reasons. Okay, don't quibble, you sit here honestly for me, and let your wife go home and sleep well. ”

Then the nurse began to tell me what the numbers on the various instruments beside the old woman's bed meant, and when to call the doctor. I had no choice but to listen honestly.

After the nurse finished speaking, she took the patient's blood pressure and left.

Seeing my embarrassed look, Xu Yanyan snorted and laughed softly. Then, she said, "Chen Yang, thank you." ”

I shook my head helplessly, and couldn't help but say, "The old man seemed to be very excited just now." ”

Xu Yanyan looked at the sleeping patient, pulled me aside, and said in a low voice, "Please understand." My aunt is a person who has no tomorrow today, and I don't want my aunt to leave with regrets. ”

Next, Xu Yanyan explained.

It turned out that when Xu Yanyan was very young, her parents died one after another, she became an orphan, and she only had one relative, that is, her aunt. It was my aunt who brought Xu Yanyan up. Due to the lack of father's love and mother's love, her aunt neglected to discipline her, Xu Yanyan has been messing around with a bunch of unserious girls since she was a child, and she learned badly when she came and went. After Xu Yanyan's bad deeds continued to reach her aunt's ears, she was very angry, and persuaded Xu Yanyan to be a serious person many times, but Xu Yanyan couldn't listen to it. Gradually, my aunt was extremely disappointed in Xu Yanyan.

Disappointment is disappointment, Xu Yanyan is her aunt's relative after all. My aunt is not in good health, and when she gets older, she knows that she will leave this world at any time, and the old man is most at ease with Xu Yanyan, and the thing she hopes most is to see Xu Yanyan get married before she leaves. When the girl got married, and had a husband who cared about her, loved her, and treated her well, the old man was relieved.

After listening to Xu Yanyan's story, I didn't speak for a long time. I really couldn't imagine that Xu Yanyan's experience was so unfortunate. It turned out that she was an orphan, so pitiful.

"Now you know why I told my aunt that you are my boyfriend, right?"

"Totally understood. In order not to let the old man leave with regrets, I will continue to play the role of your boyfriend in the coming days. Don't worry, I'll play this role well. ”

"Chen Yang, what did you say? Will you stay with me all the time? Xu Yanyan looked incredulous.

"Yes."

At this point, I had a very selfish thought. Just like I fooled each other a few days ago, I have to continue to fool each other. In a word, I'm going to keep playing the emotional card. As long as Xu Yanyan is moved, I can know the truth from the other party's mouth that she bought a tower-shaped blue and white jar from Professor Zhou.

I don't believe that Xu Yanyan would like antiques, someone must have entrusted her to buy them. She must have been taken advantage of.

Who is taking advantage of it?

This is what I want to know the most.

"I don't need you to accompany me." Xu Yanyan's tone suddenly became cold.

I was stunned, "What?" ”

"Say!" Xu Yanyan stared at my eyes, "What are you looking for me for?" I didn't come to see my aunt. You must have something, say, what's the matter? ”

"No matter how big it is, it's not as important as honoring the elderly." My voice was not loud, as if I was saying to Xu Yanyan, but also like talking to myself, "The old man has been worried about the younger generation all his life, let us do the last bit of filial piety for the younger generation." ”

Xu Yanyan didn't speak again. She quietly looked at the old man on the hospital bed, not knowing what she was thinking.

In this way, I accompanied Xu Yanyan to guard the elderly in the intensive care unit of the hospital for three days. During these three days, Xu Yanyan and I took turns going out to get food, and I asked her to go home to rest, but she didn't listen. I borrowed a special wire spring cot from the hospital, and when the two of us were tired, they took turns to lie on the bed for a while.

During this period, the nurse who trained me often came in to change the old man's dressing and measure his blood pressure. Seeing that I was honest, she praised me and said that I had made a lot of progress like a model husband. I couldn't cry or laugh, and the explanation was no longer clear, so I continued to play the role of Xu Yanyan's husband.

During this period, Xu Yanyan's aunt was sometimes confused and sometimes sober. When I was sober, as at the beginning, the old man looked at me with great relief in his eyes, and his mouth opened from time to time to say something to me. I knew what the old man was thinking, and whenever this happened, I immediately walked to the bedside and said to the old man, don't worry, I will take good care of Yanyan and so on.

Three days later, the old man was gone. I helped Xu Yanyan take care of the funeral, and after cremation, I bought a cemetery for the old man in the cemetery below Beishan in the suburbs, and placed the old man's urn. Xu Yanyan kowtowed four times to the old man's tombstone. I bowed three times seriously.

Walking out of the cemetery, Xu Yanyan said to me: "Chen Yang, can you tell me what is the matter with me now?" ”

"I wonder whose bank card it is?"

"That's it?"

"Yes."

"Chen Yang, don't lie to me," Xu Yanyan stared at me, "You didn't look for me because of the bank card." Say, what is it? ”

In the past few days in the hospital, we have known each other very well, and I know that I can't fool each other. I said, "Professor Zhou from the School of Civil Engineering, you should know him, right?" ”

Originally, I thought that Xu Yanyan would be very surprised when she heard this, but who knows, she shook her head calmly, "What Professor Zhou?" I don't know. ”

"You spent 200,000 yuan from Professor Zhou to buy a Tangta-type blue and white jar, how could you not know him?" I couldn't hold my breath. If the other party comes to death and refuses to admit it, this matter is really difficult to do.

Actually, before I found Xu Yanyan, I thought that the other party would not admit it. In order to get his hands on something, the other party used beauty on the professor. For a woman, this is something that is difficult to talk about. If you change it, you won't admit it.

It was because I was worried that the other party would not admit it that I wronged myself to play the other party's boyfriend and stayed with him in the hospital for three days. If the other party doesn't admit it, my emotional drama will be in vain.
