72. Leave of absence

Sun Xiufang walked to the stove, shook the water in her hand, lifted the lid of the pot, and a hot air with a rich aroma came to her face, she picked up the chopsticks next to her, found a piece of larger meat and inserted it, and there was not much resistance to skewer the meat through, then the meat was already cooked, and if it was cooked again, it would be overcooked, she covered the pot and said to Wang Ying: "Yingzi, I see that this meat is cooked, and the meat will melt when it is boiled again, and I will bring the pot down." After speaking, he grabbed the handles on both sides and moved the pot to the side.

"I'm coming, I'm coming, mother, it's very heavy, don't burn you." Wang Ying was washing clothes, hurriedly stood up, and the soap foam on her hand was about to pass.

"You wash yours, I'll just come, this pot is much smaller than the one in my hometown, I can move it."

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were talking, Shi Dayong came out of the house with a spittoon, Sun Xiufang saw it, and hurriedly asked, "Dayong, is your father awake?" ”

"Well, you woke up not long after you went out."

"I'll go inside and take a look." Sun Xiufang was still worried about the old man's body, and when she heard that Shi Youtian had woken up, she hurriedly returned to the house, "Dad, how do you feel?" Is it better? ”

The quilt was neatly folded, and the clothes he took off last night had been put on, and Shi Youtian was leaning on the quilt, holding a glass of condensed milk in his hand and sipping slowly. The old woman's expression of concern made Shi Youtian's heart surge with warmth, he patted the edge of the bed and motioned for Sun Xiufang to sit down: "I'm much better, don't worry." ”

"Have you taken the medicine?" With that, Sun Xiufang went to get the medicine bottle at the bedside. When Shi Dayong was building a bed for his father and mother, considering the convenience of his parents, he put a cabinet at the head of the bed, Shi Youtian's medicine, drinking cups, rice bowls and other things were just right on the cabinet, no, this is used.

Shi Youtian stopped: "Don't panic yet, Dayong said that I should drink this cup of condensed milk before taking medicine, saying that taking medicine on an empty stomach hurts my stomach." ”

"Oh." Sun Xiufang walked on the edge of the bed, and saw that Ruimin on the opposite side was still sleeping, twisted her eyebrows, and shouted dissatisfiedly: "Fourth, what time is it, lazy pig, still sleeping?" Ruimin actually woke up when Shi Youtian woke up, Shi Dayong served his father to urinate, and he knew how to dress, he just pretended not to wake up, if he woke up at that time, he would have to join hands with his eldest brother to serve his father, Ruimin didn't want to do it, he wanted to wait for the eldest brother to stop his father's service and get up again.

Ruimin pretended to have just woken up, yawned, and stretched, "Dad, mother, what time is it, what are you doing in the morning?" ”

"What's early, your sister-in-law's meal is almost ready." Sun Xiufang continued to count angrily: "Look at how high the sun is, it's not that my mother said you, fourth, it's okay if you're lazy in your hometown, it's in front of your father, you can't do it outside in the future, you know?" ”

Ruimin didn't like to hear this, "Mother, why am I lazy, what haven't I done at home?" ”

"Okay, okay, you're not lazy, you get up quickly." Sun Xiufang didn't want to choke with Ruimin.

"Mommy, Mommy." The two of them were too loud, which woke An An, An An sat up, rubbed her eyes and called for her mother.

Sun Xiufang hurriedly walked to the back room and hugged An An: "Oh, An An is awake, grandma hugs." ”

An An just woke up, recognized someone, and grabbed Sun Xiufang's hand to prevent her from hugging: "Mom, mom hug." ”

"Grandma hugged An An to find her mother, okay?" Hearing that she was going to find her mother, An An agreed to let her grandmother get dressed.

In the yard, Wang Ying washed his clothes, Shi Dayong fished out two pieces of meat, chopped them carefully on the board, until they were chopped into mushrooms, and then received them in the bowl, and beat an egg in it, stirred well, so that the meat and egg liquid were fully integrated, and then the soup pot was put back on the stove, and when the soup was boiling, scooped a few spoonfuls of broth from the soup to wash the eggs away and flush them away. Looking at the bowl full of broth and egg tea, Shi Dayong was very satisfied, today there is milk, meat and eggs, and the nutrition must be achieved.

Ruimin stood in the courtyard with his clothes on, smelling the fragrance of the yard, and his saliva flowed. Shi Dayong was carrying a big bowl of broth and egg tea and was about to send it to his father, passing by Ruimin, Ruimin sniffed, "Big brother, what are you serving, Xiangxiang." ”

After covering his mouth all night, this talk, the smell spewed out, and tilted Shi Dayongxun's face: "What, hurry up and wash it, don't brush your teeth in the morning, what does that smell good?"

"Brush your teeth, I have to go to the hut first, suffocate me."

Sun Xiufang went once and knew where the toilet was, so she came out with An An in her arms and said to Ruimin: "You come with me, I'll tell you how to get to the thatched house." ”

When An An saw Wang Ying, her eyes lit up, and she held her little hand and shouted several times: "Mom hug, mom hug." ”

Wang Ying raised the foam on her hand and showed it to An An: "An An, mom will hug you after washing clothes, will you play with grandma first?" ”

"Oh." An An is usually very obedient, and when she saw that her mother really couldn't let go of her hand, she obediently nestled in her grandmother's arms and didn't let her mother hug her.

Shi Dayong put the rice bowl away, Shi Youtian just finished drinking a cup of condensed milk, he took the empty cup handed over by his father and said, "Dad, it's time to eat." ”

"Dad is not hungry, eat it cold, and besides, I can't eat so much."

Shi Dayong thought about it, the hot soup just out of the pot was indeed too hot, and he forgot to take the spoon, so he sat down next to Shi Youtian first, and talked to his father: "Dad, this soup is boiled by the rabbit that Zhang Qiang brought yesterday, this morning I feel that it is not light, I am afraid that there are three or four catties, peel off the skin and see, it is really fat, a large piece of fat oil under the neck, if you go to the restaurant, you can't sell several pieces?" ”

Shi Youtian smacked his lips, a little pity, "Really? Great! If only our family could eat several meals in my hometown. ”

If you want to say that a rabbit family of three or four pounds can eat several meals, it should not be enough to eat one meal, right? However, the people of the old Shi family will pass, a rabbit is stewed in a big pot with water, stewed and put it up, and each meal is scooped out of a few pieces according to the head and then mixed with cabbage or radish to stew in a pot, but it is not possible to eat several meals.

Wang Ying hurried to make breakfast after washing clothes, today's breakfast is also easy to make, rabbit meat under the noodles, pieces of rabbit meat, snow-white noodles, sprinkled with a layer of coriander foam, not yet eaten in the mouth, has already hooked Ruimin's eyeballs into the pot, and even snoring and eating two large bowls, this is still unfinished, take the bowl to the pot and look again, indeed even the soup has been drunk, only reluctant to rest assured that the bowl and chopsticks.

It was not too early to finish eating, and Shi Dayong saw that he didn't need to do anything at home for a while, so he said to everyone: "I'll go to the unit." ”

The captain's surname is Ren, Ren Bingfeng, a big man of more than 1.8 meters, in his forties, with a square face, a black and red face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and slightly thick lips, giving people the first impression of being honest and honest.

Shi Dayong stood at the door of the captain's office, first rubbed his face with his hands, rubbed his eyes emphatically, and then pulled his facial features down, and then a rough man with reddish eyes, a scruffy beard, and a haggard old man appeared.

"Bang Bang Bang!" He knocked on the door first.

"Please come in!" A deep voice came.

Shi Dayong pushed open the door, and Ren Bingfeng sat behind the desk writing something, "Captain, are you busy?" ”

Ren Bingfeng raised his head, "Dayong, when did you come back, how is the old man at home?" ”

"I came back last afternoon, my father is not very well, don't I have something to ask the captain to come?"

"Huh? What's up? Ren Bingfeng put down the pen in his hand, looked at Shi Dayong seriously, and pointed to a chair in front of the table: "Dayong, come, sit, if there is anything, you can say anything, I will try to help as much as I can." ”

"Alas!" Shi Dayong sat on the chair and sighed heavily, "Captain, my father's illness was diagnosed with esophageal cancer in the county, and I brought him here, and I wanted to take him to the hospital specializing in esophageal cancer in H Nanl County." ”

Shi Dayong is a person who is still very high in the eyes of the captain, Down-to-earth and hardworking, strong sense of responsibility for work, good popularity among colleagues, the basic situation of his family also knows, there are many brothers, there is no way to get money, I heard that the family is very poor, even Shi Dayong's own small family is not rich, and the money is basically supported by his hometown, which overheard that Shi Dayong's family has had such a big change, he is very sympathetic, but as an outsider, he can not do much support, but as the leader of the unit, he can still help a little, He pondered for a moment and asked, "Is it a lack of money?" If you don't need much, I have you here to use it first, if you need more, I will give you a note, you go to the finance to pay some first, and then slowly deduct it from your salary every month. ”

"Hmm." Money must be borrowed, Dad's illness, three melons and two dates can not be seen well, the two money saved at home do not know how many days can last, Shi Dayong observed the captain's face, and then said: "Captain, it's like this, you know that L County is not too far from us, only 200 miles, my father's body is very weak now, and he can't walk far, and he basically carries it on my back all the way, I think, I want to ......."

"Just say what you want, don't listen to it like an old lady." The captain is an anxious person, and he can't help but be anxious when he looks at this way of speaking.

"Captain, I want to drive my car, I will pay for the gas on the road myself, captain, I just want my father to suffer less, my father is him, he won't live long......" Shi Dayong said and said, thinking about all the things in his father's life, sadness came from the heart, the eye circles were really red, tears gradually overflowed his eyes, two tears slipped down his cheeks, and when he encountered the beard, he was blocked and hung on the beard like that. Shi Dayong felt that he was crying, a big man was crying in front of outsiders, he was very embarrassed, endured and endured, and wanted to endure the tears in his eyes, but the tears didn't listen to him, and they fluttered one after another. This is contrary to his original intention, his original intention was to let the captain see his difficulty, but not to let others find out his weakness, Shi Dayong really couldn't do it, he opened his palms, covered his cheeks, and then gritted his teeth and took a deep breath a few times, which stabilized his mind.

A big man, strong and strong, Shi Dayong's state made Ren Bingfeng feel very uncomfortable, he patted Shi Dayong's shoulder and comforted: "Dayong, don't be sad, I approved it, don't worry about the oil, the team took it." ”

The captain agreed, but Shi Dayong didn't have the joy of succeeding in his plan, his eyes were full of gratitude, "Thank you, captain." ”

Ren Bingfeng waved his hand and took a piece of paper to prepare to write: "You're welcome, just say it, how much are you going to borrow first, I'll write you a note." ”

"Captain." Shi Dayong calculated in his heart, "Why don't I borrow 300 yuan first?" If that's not enough, I'll come back to you. ”

"300 yes." Ren Bingfeng wrote a few lines of words, signed his name at the cashier, and handed it to Shi Dayong, "Go to finance, find an accountant and get money." ”

Shi Dayong's heart was full of gratitude, the image of Captain Ren's big brother became taller and taller in his mind, he took the note with both hands, and sincerely thanked him again and again: "Thank you, captain!" Thank you, Captain! ”
