As soon as Shi Dayong arrived home, Wang Ying's meal was ready, she just put the noodles into the bowl, she heard the courtyard door creak, knowing that her in-laws had arrived, she hurriedly put down the chopsticks in her hand and went to the door.

"Father, mother, you have arrived." Wang Ying walked a few steps quickly and held Sun Xiufang's arm.

It has been more than half a year since they last met, and Shi Dayong is usually busy with work, and the two can only take their children back to their hometown at the end of the year every year, and use the limited few days of vacation to visit relatives.

The last time I met, my father-in-law and mother-in-law were still a pair of very strong old men, and their hair was not so white, but today's meeting, my father-in-law didn't even have the strength to walk, and the whole person was lying on Shi Dayong's back, his sallow face was full of ash, and his eyes were no longer bright. The mother-in-law's mental state is also much worse than before, her skin is very loose, her face is wrinkled, and her back is a little rickety.

Wang Ying's heart was sour, and her eyes were full of concern: "Mother, I'm tired all the way, I'm hungry or not, I've already made the meal." ”

Sun Xiufang shook her head: "Not hungry, not hungry." "Since the old man got sick, Sun Xiufang's heart has been slipping all day long, and she doesn't seem to be hungry all day long, and she seems to be hungry all the time.

"How can you not be hungry? I haven't eaten well all the way, are you ready? Shi Dayong carried Shi Youtian all the way quickly, and when he entered the door, he put Shi Youtian on the bed first and let him lie down to rest.

The noisy sound woke An An up early, and the child who had just woken up was not very conscious, half-asleep blinking his big hazy eyes, and seeing that these people suddenly came to the house, he was a little scared, and looked for Wang Ying with two small hands: "Mom, Mom." ”

Sun Xiufang picked up An An, "Ouch, An An, it's grandma, An An doesn't know grandma?" ”

The child is forgetful, he hasn't seen his grandmother for so long, An An really hasn't remembered it, a stranger who is a little familiar hugged him, An An was unwilling, and threw himself on Wang Ying with his small body: "Mom, Mom." ”

Seeing that An An was about to cry, Wang Ying hurriedly took An An: "Mother, I'll hold her, you wash your hands and eat first." ”

"Sister-in-law, where do you put this luggage?" A man's voice came from behind him, it was Ruimin, Wang Ying patronized the placement of his father-in-law and mother-in-law, and forgot about the fourth child. She turned around, but saw Ruimin standing at the threshold wearing the military uniform that Shi Dayong had brought back when he recovered.

Seeing this military uniform, Wang Ying's eyes darkened, and she felt uncomfortable for a while, but as her brother-in-law, she couldn't do anything, so she just smiled lightly and greeted: "Ruimin is also here, you can put the luggage on the chair first." ”

Shi Dayong has been a soldier for four years, and in his last year, he wanted to keep a memory, so he had a new military uniform and never got up. At that time, the husband and wife often corresponded, Shi Dayong told Wang Ying about his idea, and when he was about to recover, he bought some things for Wang Ying and the child plus the luggage he needed to take home, and sent a package to Wang Ying, and the letter also told Wang Ying that the things had been sent back, so that she could pay attention to the collection.

Wang Ying received the letter, knowing that there would be a package coming recently, she always paid attention to it, but waited and waited, and never saw the shadow of the package, she was a little anxious, could it be that something was on the road out of the pool, Wang Ying was not at ease, began to look for it, asked the postman, the postman said that he had already sent the package to his home, how could he not find it?

It's good to send it home, but she went home and asked, no one said that she had seen the parcel list, and in the end, Shi Youtian saw that Wang Ying was really anxious before telling the truth, telling him that the parcel was put away by Ruimin, Wang Ying was a little unhappy, why don't you tell me when you accept my things, and when she wants to find Ruimin to ask for the package, she can't find anyone.

It turned out that on the day when the postman delivered the parcel slip, it happened that everyone went to the ground, and Ruimin himself was at home, he took the document and put it in his pocket for two days, and wanted to take the package to see what good things were in it, and after two days of loading, he thought about it again and felt that this matter was not the same thing as not telling his father, and the eldest brother sent something, sooner or later everyone must know, he told Shi Youtian about it, and volunteered to go to the city to pick up the package.

Knowing the ins and outs of the matter, Wang Yingqi's teeth were itching, and he couldn't lose his temper at his mother-in-law's house, so he had to run back to his parents' house and cry to his mother-in-law.

Wang Ying and her mother poured bitter water, feeling that the time was almost up, and the one who took the package should come back, so she wiped away her tears and went home, but she didn't expect her to be a step slower, the fourth child had already unpacked her package, and the family divided her things without informing her, at that time, the military uniform had already been worn on Ruimin, Shi Dayong pulled a piece of red flannel, ready to make a coat for Coco, and asked Shi Youtian to give the second family, and gave Wang Ying a piece of velvet pants, and directly asked Sun Xiufang to put it away, It is said that it will be kept for later use.

Wang Ying's face immediately darkened, this family seemed to have done a bit too much in hindsight, Ruimin was reluctant to pretend to take off his clothes and return them to Wang Ying, Wang Ying said angrily: "Don't give it to you." Since then, this military uniform has grown on Ruimin with peace of mind.

The military uniforms of that era were a good thing, and whoever could wear such a dress would be envied by many people. Wang Ying also knows that the family is poor, how can Brother Shi Dayong have any good clothes, but you are not doing this right, to be honest, Wang Ying is a very kind and soft-hearted person, the family is poor like this, she will not let such a dress be pressed at the bottom of the box, but if you want to discuss with her, can you still give it to you as a sister-in-law?

It's just that someone has to use the heart of a villain to cross the belly of a gentleman, and there is a first cut and then a prelude, and the things are divided for you to see how you want back?

Taking care of Shi Youtian, Shi Dayong asked his father softly: "Dad, are you hungry, I'll feed you first." ”

To tell the truth, Shi Youtian is really not too hungry, firstly, thanks to Shi Dayong's warm and meticulous care, and secondly, it is indeed too difficult for him to eat a meal, and it takes a lot of effort for him to swallow every mouthful of food, he waved his hand weakly: "Dad is not hungry, you go eat quickly." ”

The noodles have already been served, they are not cold or hot just to eat, there are still many things to do, Shi Dayong is in a hurry, three times five divided by two, a bowl of noodles will see the bottom, he wiped his mouth and began to discuss with his mother: "Mother, you can feed my father after eating, I have other things, I told the people in the unit, found two beds, and pulled them back in a while, just right, you and your father are one, and the fourth child is one." After speaking, Shi Dayong turned his gaze to Ruimin again: "Fourth." Rui Min looked up at him with a large mouthful of noodles, and Shi Dayong pointed his finger to the bottom of the window: "Fourth, after you finish eating, help your sister-in-law clean up the empty space under the root of the window, and put the bed there, your sister-in-law is pregnant with a child, and she can't do heavy work, so you can take a hand." ”

Ruimin looked in the direction of his eldest brother's finger, and his brows couldn't help frowning: "Big brother, there are some cabinets and cabinets at the base of the window, and I can't move them alone." ”

"I didn't let you do it alone, forget it, forget it......" For this younger brother, Shi Dayong was a little speechless, "You first pack up the small things and put them aside, and wait for me to pull the bed back and do it with you." ”

"That's fine." Ruimin buried his head in the rice bowl again and continued to eat noodles.

Shi Dayong told everything that should be explained, and then drove back to the team to see how the bed was cleaned up.

When passing by the sales agency, Shi Dayong went in and bought two boxes of big front door pockets. From a distance, I saw that the door of the warehouse was wide open, and there were a few figures shaking there vaguely, Shi Dayong stepped on the accelerator and drove to him, then turned the front of the car and directly aimed the butt of the car at the door of the warehouse.

As soon as Shi Dayong jumped out of the car, Li Weiguo turned around: "Master Shi, are you back so soon?" The old man took it home? ”

"Well, take it home." Shi Dayong took out a cigarette from his coat pocket and handed Li Weiguo a box.

Li Weiguo shook his hand and didn't answer: "Master Shi, I don't smoke, give it to Master Yang." ”

At the door of the warehouse, the carpenter Yang was working with two young people, and the carpenter had a few nails in his mouth, and fixed the place where the plank bed moved with nails with a hammer.

These two beds are in good condition, they can be used without too much renovation, everyone is obliged to help Shi Dayong, Shi Dayong is very grateful in his heart, he hurriedly took a few steps forward, and handed the cigarette to Carpenter Yang: "Master Yang, thank you for your help, come and smoke." After speaking, he threw another box to one of the young people: "Xiao Li, then, you and Xiao Wang will smoke, you are small, smoke less, and Brother Hui will invite you to dinner." ”

Carpenter Yang put the hammer aside, spit out the nail and put the hammer together, then slowly tore open the seal, took out one and handed it to Shi Dayong, Shi Dayong was busy striking, and lit it for Carpenter Yang first, and Carpenter Yang slowly spit out a smoke ring: "Dayong, what's the matter?" I heard that the old man is not in good health. ”

"Well, don't mention it." Shi Dayong took a deep breath, and the cigarette he saw went down halfway in a moment, and then he spit out a breath of depression: "Where is not so good, it is very bad, my hometown was diagnosed with esophageal cancer, and my father will not be alive in a few days." ”

Carpenter Yang had heard about Shi Dayong's father's illness in Li Weiguo before, and Shi Dayong said it again, he didn't feel surprised, he just sighed, and patted Shi Dayong's shoulder sympathetically: "Alas, once diagnosed with cancer, it is equivalent to a death sentence, you are also worried, and you can't be worried, you can get whatever the old man wants to eat." ”

"It's a trivial matter to eat what you want to eat, the point is that my father can't eat anything now, he can only eat liquid food for three meals a day, the doctor said that in the end he will not even be able to drink a sip of water, what a crime, my heart is uncomfortable as a son, my father is not too old, this is gone, I am not reconciled, I want to do my best to treat my father again, even if it is really bad to make my father suffer less sin." Shi Dayong said as he spoke, and the old father's dying appearance appeared in front of him again, and his eyes couldn't help but turn red, he stretched out a puff of cigarette and pressed down and pressed the difficult past in his heart, "Master Yang, I remember your hometown is in H Nan, right?" ”

"yes, what's wrong?"

"You know L County, I heard that there is a place that specializes in treating esophageal cancer."

Carpenter Yang thought about it with a cigarette and said, "That's right! Don't you say I forgot, there really is such a place. ”

Shi Dayong hurriedly took two steps forward, lest he couldn't hear Master Yang speak clearly: "Master Yang, tell me quickly, how to go?" ”

"Yes, Master Yang, say it quickly." Li Weiguo also stepped forward.

"Don't worry, it's easy to find, you'll know when you ask when you get to L County."
