Autumn is crisp, the sun is shining, the blue sky and white clouds everywhere are raised, the cool breeze is in the ears, and there are few street vehicles at the anti-peak point, Ma Guiying unconsciously accelerated the driving speed. Yangyang burned to forty degrees coldly, the old man was not there, Zhiyuan was not there, she hurriedly rushed to the community hospital, and scolded her mother angrily along the way - angry old man was careless and negligent, angry Zhiyuan was not at home, angry that he had a big vacation and snubbed his daughter. During this period, Gui Ying kept calling Zhiyuan, and no one answered after four calls, and the woman's heart was like an oil bowl overturned on the fire, and she kept grinning.

It turned out that since He Zhiyuan left home, his biological clock has been going backwards, sleeping during the day and working at night, and he can barely sleep when the anxiety dissipates all night, and it was already four or five o'clock in the morning when he fell asleep. In order to sleep peacefully, he often adjusted his mobile phone to airplane mode, resulting in no calls from his father-in-law and wife.

After parking the car, Guiying trotted all the way, and when she arrived at the community hospital, she strode around and looked for a meteor, first saw Yang Yang in the waiting area, and then saw Teacher Zhao holding Yang Yang, and at the same time swept the coat that was not Yang Yang wearing on Yang Yang's body.

"Huh! Teacher Zhao, I am Yangyang's mother. Ma Guiying, who saw Teacher Zhao for the first time, stepped forward to say hello apologetically.

"Oh Yangyang, Mom, hello, hello, that ...... I just saw a doctor, this is the payment slip, you go and pay first. Teacher Zhao held He Yiyang in one hand and shook a few lists in the other, signaling Yangyang's mother to pay the fee quickly and then take the medicine and injection.

"I'll hug it!" Gui Ying cherishes her daughter and just wants to hold her for the first time.

"Good, good!"

Teacher Zhao spread out his arms and let Yang Yang out, briefly talked about the experience of discovering Yang Yangyang's fever today, and then accompanied Ma Guiying to pay the fee. When the nurse prescribed the medicine, Gui Ying felt embarrassed to disturb a lot, and persuaded Teacher Zhao to go back to the kindergarten to work, and the two said goodbye. After taking the medicine and holding her daughter, who was drowsy and convulsed from time to time, Gui Ying went to the laboratory to check the blood routine. After the laboratory test, I went to the treatment room, and the nurse untied Yangyang's clothes to physically cool down, and at the same time gave a few medical wipes for parents to help wipe the forehead, armpits, limbs and other places. An hour after taking the medicine, Yangyang still had a high fever, and the pediatrician checked it and prescribed an intravenous injection order. It didn't take long for the nurse to give Yangyang an intravenous drip, staring at the young nurse unskillfully looking for blood vessels on Yangyang's arm, pricking it again and again, Gui Ying pressed Yangyang's two hot little hands so anxious that her eyes were red, and Yangyang was so painful that she kicked her legs in a coma, humming and crying.

After hanging up the water, Gui Ying sat on the edge of the small bed and wiped Yangyang's forehead. Teacher Zhao said that she found that Yang Yang was abnormal at 11 o'clock, and from the time she took her temperature to confirm that she had a fever, the child had been burning at 40 degrees for more than three hours. Gui Ying was so anxious that she couldn't sit still, so she asked for some cotton swabs from the nurse, and after receiving the water, she dipped the cotton swabs in water to moisten her daughter's gray and dry lips.

Xu is sense in the dark, He Zhiyuan, who woke up earlier than usual today, got up and checked if there was a recruitment call on his mobile phone, who would have thought that when he saw seven or eight calls from his family, something must be wrong. Zhiyuan hadn't gotten out of bed yet, and hurriedly returned his wife's phone, when Gui Ying saw it, he didn't pay attention to it at all, and immediately hung up, and the smell of gunpowder could be found through the radio. After Zhiyuan returned to his father-in-law's phone, he learned that Yangyang had a high fever in the hospital, so he hung up the phone and hurriedly packed up and went out. After arriving at the hospital, He Zhiyuan saw his wife's cheeks flushed and tears in her eyes, and he didn't know what to say for a while, so he stood quietly behind Gui Ying and rubbed his hands.

"What did the doctor say?" A few minutes later, Zhiyuan asked.

"Ask the doctor!" Gui Ying turned her head with a sharp expression and her teeth strained.

Seeing that Gui Ying was angry, Zhiyuan didn't want to mess with her, after all, this was in the hospital, and there were thirty or forty people inside and out.

Lao Ma had lunch at Tianmin's house and saw Tianmin taking a nap, and chatted with Xingxia and Junjie's daughter-in-law, thinking about the little baby in his heart, and he was so half-hearted that his brain was annoyed, so he had to explain the reason and Junjie's daughter-in-law to say goodbye, and he came back alone. A few minutes after Zhiyuan's front foot arrived at the hospital, the old horse's hind foot also arrived, and after finding the place, he touched Yangyang's little foot, and saw that the baby was really burning badly, and the old man blamed himself for not putting on a coat for Yangyang in the morning.

"Why didn't you dress her!" Gui Ying said with a frown at Yangyang's feet.

The old horse sitting at the foot of the foot was hard to speak. In the usual similar context, he could come up with hundreds of high-sounding reasons in minutes, but he could see that the villain, who was usually as lively as a bird, was lying unconscious on the hospital bed at the moment, and his grandfather was silent.

"Ying'er, don't worry!" Zhiyuan stepped forward and grabbed his wife's shoulders and whispered.

"Don't touch me! Go to your rental! Gui Ying shook off Zhiyuan's hand fiercely, and the emotions that had been suppressed for a long time suddenly exploded.

Seeing this, the old horse left with interest, and went out of the treatment room to sit on the iron chair at the door. Zhiyuan frowned and peeked out the door, seeing that no one heard, he pulled over the stool next to the bed and sat down, holding Yangyang's knee with one hand and putting his fist on his thigh with the other. When Gui Ying saw him sitting in front of him, her anger turned to sadness, tears fell unstoppably, and her breathing became short. Hiding his face and crying for more than ten minutes, Zhiyuan silently handed the paper beside him.

"Can't you stay at home and take care of it? I have to go out and live! After another ten or so minutes, the black clouds in Gui Ying's chest gradually dissipated, so she sobbed and opened her mouth.

Zhiyuan lowered his eyes and said nothing.

"You're taking care of it at home, are you so bad at the exam? As for swiping videos day by day, haven't they been discovered yet? As for being choked by a classmate? As for having a fever of 40 degrees? Gui Ying cried and shouted, and the old horse sitting outside could hear it clearly.

Zhiyuan listened quietly and still didn't answer.

"You're looking for a job – have you been looking for a job for so long? Isn't it okay to look for a child at home without eyebrows for a while? What's the point of you living outside? Gui Ying asked, squeezing her cheeks.

Zhiyuan remained silent and sighed in his nose.

"Even if it is...... Even if you get a job...... What can it be? Big (i.e., the old horse) won't be long back in the tun, who will pick up Yangyang? If he doesn't leave, who will take care of him when he gets old in the future? Don't you have to have someone at home to take care of you? Next year, Tsai Tsai will take the college entrance examination! Is it more important for you to find a job than the college entrance examination? What do you think? What the hell do you think? Ma Guiying stared at the pressing.

Zhiyuan looked to the left and sighed again.

"What's the point of you tossing around for a while? What can that salary do? Is it okay to make the family crazy for this? Also What does it mean that you live outside now? Yangyang asks ...... every day"

Gui Ying's crying was suddenly interrupted. Zhiyuan stood up, chewed the sorrow in his chest, clenched his fists and said: "Don't say it!" I've told you, I'm going to work! ”

"You're okay with your work! Who cares if Yang Yang has a fever? Who will accompany you throughout the college entrance examination? ”

"It's all responsible! Don't dwell on such childish questions here. Zhiyuan walked to the wall and replied facing the wall.

"All responsible? You mean I'm responsible for everything at home? ”

"I didn't say I wanted you to come! Whoever is free will do it! ”

"So you don't have time for a high fever today? I'm in the office talking to a client, am I free? ”

"I'm not coming!" Zhiyuan's face was ugly, and his words were indifferent.

Gui Ying stared at the cold back, and felt jealous in her heart.

said that she moved out and moved out, without considering her feelings at all, how could she be so decisive after nearly 20 years of husband and wife? On the other hand, if you leave him for one night and have a hard time, how can you move out easily. Ma Guiying pities herself, even if she stands on the moral high ground, she is always afraid that he will reveal his killer weapon of coldness. Between their husband and wife, after all, she loves him a little more, maybe because of age differences, maybe because of cultural differences, maybe because she is a woman. At this point, tears flowed for a long time, and the more I cried, the more aggrieved I became.

Zhiyuan left the treatment room and sat next to his father-in-law. Weng and his son-in-law clenched their fists with each other, listening to Gui Ying's cry, and were speechless. Lao Ma only overheard Gui Ying's aggressiveness, but didn't hear what Zhiyuan said, at this moment, he only hoped that Yangyang would quickly get rid of the fever, as for the rest, it didn't matter. Gui Ying guarded the rippling, her mood was like the changeable weather in a mountain city, she was extremely aggrieved for a while, angry for a while, and sad for a while.

Déjà vu. Lao Ma always felt that this scene was somewhat familiar, and he pondered for a while before recalling it. About more than 30 years ago, Gui Ying also burned it once, also in the middle of winter. After waking up that morning, Ying'er and her mother said that Yingying was a little hot, and Lao Ma didn't take it seriously at all. At that time, when the Chinese New Year was approaching, the family had no money, so the old horse bought a batch of sugarcane, thinking that he would drive the cattle to the largest temple fair in Pucheng County that day to sell some money for cutting meat for the New Year. There were very few big gatherings like the Pucheng temple fair in the surrounding area, and Lao Ma thought that he could make a hundred and eighty if he sold well that day, so he drove the cow and pulled the sugar cane away in the morning, ignoring Gui Ying's fever. Who Cheng thought that Gui Ying had a terrible burn that time, and when she came back, she only heard that her mother was so anxious that she cried at the entrance of the village, and finally it was the uncle of his own house (Lao Ma's cousin and uncle) who rode a girder car to send the mother and daughter to the county hospital. When I arrived at the hospital, the doctor was also frightened, and the doll, who was less than four years old, had a fever of 42 degrees, and later the brain was afraid that it would burn out. When the past hit, the old horse felt guilty for a while; looked back at the ripples, and blamed himself again. For Yingying, he did ignore a lot before, but now he wants to make up for it, but he always can't do it well.

"God bless, let Yangyang get rid of the fever quickly! God forbid, don't let the baby burn out her brain! God bless ......" the old horse is ventriloquist.

At six o'clock, Zhiyuan was so depressed that he went out to buy food, and after buying it back, Gui Ying didn't appreciate it at all, and the high fever did not go away, and Zhiyuan had no intention of eating, so he only persuaded the old man to eat while it was hot. The hot pot at noon was not full, and the old horse was also hungry at this time, so he took a big bite of the boxed lunch. Between the churns and the rice, the air was much softer.

"It's okay! Which doll doesn't have a fever? She's so squeezing! The old horse comforted his son-in-law.

"Hmm." Zhiyuan clasped his hands on his knees and nodded.

"You keep your business busy and go according to your plan! Always don't go out to work, how will the doll look at you when it gets older in the future! You can't lose your job! Don't listen to Yingying's nonsense, men have to take a long-term view. The old horse said with a mouthful of vegetable oil.

"Well, I got Dad." Zhiyuan was grateful to his father-in-law for these words, but he was so heavy that he couldn't say words of gratitude.

The middle-aged man is bent on finding a good job, and his wife doesn't understand his father-in-law, but he is very considerate and always supportive. Originally, He Zhiyuan planned to wait for himself to find a job, and asked his father-in-law to stay in Shenzhen to help take care of the children and retire here, so that he could take time out to work hard. After his job stabilized, he went to university and entered primary school, where he took care of the children as a teacher and took care of them without delaying his work. He is very sure of the best of both worlds, and this confidence comes from his father-in-law's undisguised and endless love for Yangyang. However, I can't find a job for a long time at the moment, and if I don't find a job when I open my mouth in advance, it will be a joke. This time, He Zhiyuan will not give up until he reaches his goal.

"It's not always good to be outside, come over from time to time......" Seeing the old man talking about this stubble, Zhiyuan diverted the topic.

"Dad, I'll ask Yingying again to see if she eats!" Zhiyuan mentioned the lunch box and said.

"It's done." The old horse swung with chopsticks.

Carrying a boxed lunch into the treatment room, the man squatted in front of the woman's knees, and said gentle words, but Gui Ying still ignored them. After talking for about ten minutes, Gui Ying suddenly interrupted.

"I'll just ask you one thing - will you go home?" Gui Ying hit the nail on the head.

"Why do you keep bothering about this! If I don't go home for a job, where will I live? ”

"The question is, can you find a job?" Gui Ying let out a loud roar, then stared at her eyes with a trembling chin.

Zhiyuan froze for a long time when he heard Gui Ying say this.

Gui Ying knew that she was overtalking, but she didn't feel unreasonable. Manager Ma, who has been in the workplace and often recruits salesmen, knows the current talent market too well, and she is not against Zhiyuan looking for a job, but knows what kind of people the company will use and what kind of people it will not use.

"I'll eat by myself, you can watch!" Seeing that Zhiyuan was speechless, Gui Ying got up and left.

On the way to find a restaurant, Gui Ying thought back and forth about what she had just said - "The question is whether you can find a job", she didn't know what impact this sentence would have on Zhiyuan, but this sentence seemed to poke herself. In real work and life, as a woman, she naturally hopes that her other half has a career pursuit, a decent job, and a good income, but subconsciously she has accepted the role of He Zhiyuan who has not worked, taken care of the family, and been a full-time dad or "househusband", because this role is more conducive to her career development. What a contradiction.

When this question was finally forced to be put on the table today, Gui Ying suddenly found that this was a bomb between her and Zhiyuan. Who is selfless? They all have selfish motives, but unfortunately this selfishness is a zero-sum game. Back then, I was fed up with the life of a full-time mother who specialized in bringing children, and now Zhiyuan is also fed up with curled up at home and abandoning her work to bring a rippling life. Ma Guiying doesn't want to wronged anyone, let alone quit her job and resume her original role, but now she is very uneasy to let her septuagenarian father, who has been served all her life, take care of the four-and-a-half-year-old Yangyang, even though this has become an established fact that she sees every day but does not recognize psychologically.

"The question is whether you can find a job" - a powerful, brutal and hurtful sentence, it is really extreme emotions that kill people, and Ma Guiying regrets it.

The family's right to speak and economic power are always on the same front, and she has the right to speak, which has invisibly changed her view of her lover. But in the haze, she still maintained her admiration and admiration for Zhiyuan. For the same person, they admire him, fear him, despise him, and find fault with him; both proud of him and disappointed in him; What kind of state of mind is it to marry him and have another possibility in mind? Ma Guiying was stunned by herself.

On the one hand, he was proud that his daughter was the one who took the initiative and had the upper hand in this dispute, and on the other hand, he was surprised by what Gui Ying said and worried about the detriment of their marriage. In order to save face for Zhiyuan, Lao Ma has been guarding outside, and he has not entered the treatment room to see Yangyang for more than two hours.

Zhiyuan understands Gui Ying's crying today, and understands her recent grievances and hardships, but he can't stand such ugly and provocative words for a while, and countless tough or fierce thoughts run over in his mind, uncontrollable. He held his rippling little hands, as always, motionless, using his body to interpret a gentleman's demeanor.

Occasionally, speech or behavior deviates from the norm; Occasionally, the naughtiness of the mind can surprise how brutal and crude the brain is. Human beings are complex, just as doing good can make people happy, and doing evil can also make people happy, and in this regard, artificial intelligence is beyond the reach of the dust.

After Gui Ying entered the treatment room after dinner, Zhiyuan went out with his hands in fists. At seven o'clock, the old horse went back to get a coat and a thin quilt for Yangyang, during which the nurse had been going several times recently, feeding antipyretics, checking hanging bottles, checking needles, and measuring body temperature. In the blink of an eye, it was time for the community hospital to get off work, and the pediatrician came to check it out, and suggested that he go home to feed medicine and recuperate, and if it was serious, go to the emergency department of a big hospital. After the doctor left, the nurse came in to pull out the needles and clean up the medical waste. The three adults looked at the back of the nurse coming and going, looked at each other, looked at the high fever that did not go away, and the confusion was tangled for a long time.

"Big, I'll take Yangyang to Peking University Hospital to have a look." Gui Ying was the first to decide.

"The doctor said that you can go home to recuperate, but now in late autumn, the temperature and the wind are tossing back and forth to make the illness more serious." Zhiyuan crossed his hands on his hips, not wanting adults and children to suffer in the middle of the night.

"Has the fever subsided?" Ma Guiying was suddenly hysterical, and the patients in the waiting area came over to see the excitement.

"Now it's thirty-nine degrees six, isn't that a little bit back! You go to the emergency room in the middle of the night, and it's a question of whether there is a pediatrician on the emergency department! The doctor's diagnosis over there is the same as here, isn't that a trip for nothing? If the diagnosis is different, and Yangyang is given a medicine and injection again, aren't you afraid of excessive damage to your body? ”

"Is thirty-nine degrees six normal body temperature? From 11 o'clock in the morning to 9 o'clock in the evening, the total retreat is less than one degree, which is called 'retreat'? Gui Ying yelled, attracting the nurse who was about to get off work to come over and persuade her.

"Okay, okay, don't make any noise, let's take it home first! I just drank the antipyretics, but the strength of the medicine hasn't come up yet! If the fever doesn't go away by twelve o'clock, you can go to the big hospital again - it's not too late! It took half an hour to drive to the big hospital, so why rush now! The old horse Jue Zhiyuan made sense, so he stepped forward and picked up Yangyang, wearing a thick coat and a thin quilt to avoid the wind on the road. In this way, the child was carried out of the treatment room.

"Let's go, let's go, people are off work!" The old horse turned back and urged the two facing each other, then lowered his head and looked at the road and walked back cautiously.

The community hospital is less than 500 meters away from the gate of the community in Jinhua Blessed Land, and the three of them have their own thoughts and have a hard time all the way. Before he got home, Lao Ma's phone rang, and it was Tsai Tsai calling. After school, Tsai saw that the house was empty, and when he asked, he found out that his sister had a high fever. The boy put down his bag, locked the door, and ran out to find them. Before he could ask a few words, the keen young man immediately leaned out that his father and mother had quarreled, and the quarrel was very serious.

After such a family went home in sections, Lao Ma and Zhiyuan took care of Yangyang and slept well, Gui Ying closed the door and got angry on the bed for a while, wiped tears and yawned for a while, Zai Zai fell asleep after washing, Lao Ma smoked two pots of hookah and laid a thin quilt on the rocking chair, lying on the balcony and waiting. Zhiyuan has been staying by Yangyang's side, touching Yangyang's palms, forehead and back every twenty or thirty minutes. The old horse couldn't sleep on the rocking chair, sometimes he felt sorry for the dying Ma Tianmin, sometimes he was distressed and unconscious, and sometimes he was drowsy and occasionally cramped, and sometimes he thought back to the noisy and obviously stiff couple, and there was a melancholy in his chest, which was really a tossing day.

Originally, many things were commonplace in the tun, but after being brought to the stage in the city, the appearance changed instantly. Husbands and wives quarreled, and it used to be enough to fight in the village, regardless of who beat whom, the two-eight-point family was the most stable; It is common for people to be old and sick and return to their old age, and it is more like a natural, natural or homely event that returns to the origin, and the white happy event is so tragic and miserable in the city; Besides, children have a cold and fever, there is a local method to go to the soil method first, and the local method is defeated to see a foreign doctor...... Lao Ma reminisced about this day, and he really looked down on the pretentious place of the city.

On second thought, the development and progress of society is to some extent equivalent to being more gentle, more civilized, more rational, more delicate, more complex, more valued for the individual, more respectful of feelings, and more properly treating the life and death of social individuals. The news in the newspapers and on TV focuses more on the individual than on the collective, and the slow life that Tsai says means that people start to pay attention to the feelings and rationality in the process rather than the correctness and quantity of the results. Lao Ma thought, the villagers have rough means and a large process, but the result is good, harmonious, right, and upward, and the people in the city are now doing the opposite, will they get a good result? Will being rational, good, and right for everyone ultimately benefit the collective?

In a cranky thought, Gui Ying went out of the house, and every hour she came out to take her temperature. At twelve o'clock in the morning, the fever subsided somewhat, and the thermometer showed thirty-eight degrees seven. At two o'clock in the morning, it was thirty-eight degrees, and by three o'clock the fever had completely subsided. The family's hearts were finally relieved, and at this point, the old horse took the thin quilt and went back to the room to sleep.

One day, the Yellow River is going to pass here, and Erhua Mountain is blocking the Yellow River from passing there, and the Yellow River thinks to himself, if I go around the bend, how many roads do I have to walk, he is not happy! Said to Erhuashan that I will pass from you, and Erhuashan will not let you pass! The two sides quarreled and alarmed the river god. The river god is a god who is in charge of the river, called a giant spirit. When the river god djinn heard that someone was bullying the Yellow River, he was not happy! He began to do it, turning himself into a boss - the sky is so high and the earth is so long, and then he split the top of Erhua Mountain with his hands, and then kicked open the bottom of Erhua Mountain with his two feet, breaking a Erhua Mountain so high in half! Look at this river god djinn, isn't it! The old horse said with his eyebrows fluttering and foaming in his mouth.

"Hmm."

"After the river god tore apart Erhua Mountain, the Yellow River flowed through the middle of the two mountains again, flowing, flowing, and finally flowing into the sea. These two Huashan were broken into two halves, half of which was called Taihua Mountain and half was called Shaohua Mountain. Now, there are still nail prints broken by the river god on Taihua Mountain, and the footprints below are also there. Ye has also been to Shaohua Mountain, that mountain! As high as the clouds haha...... Doesn't this sound good? ”

"Nice! Listen to it! The little man asked, snotting.

"I still have to listen! Oops...... Ye Ponder and Ponder ......"

At eight o'clock in the morning on Thursday, Gui Ying slept in the room, Zhiyuan went out to buy breakfast, and Lao Ma came to Yangyang's room, wiping her nose while chatting with the baby.

"Oh, yes! It was also the time when it was old and early, and there was a county seat called Changshui County. It is said that when Qin Shi Huang was the first emperor, there was a nursery rhyme in the county, and the nursery rhyme said, "The city gate sees blood, and the city turns into a lake." There was an old woman, after she heard this nursery rhyme, she went to the city gate every day to peek. One day, the officer guarding the city gate found out, and the officer arrested the old woman and asked her, 'Why do you come here every day to peek?' Later, the officers released the old woman and smeared it with dog blood on the city gates. When the old woman saw that there was blood at the city gate, she hurriedly ran away. Suddenly, the flood came! Flowing down from the sky, there is water everywhere! As soon as the official hurriedly asked his subordinates to inform the county magistrate, the county magistrate saw the soldier and asked him, 'Why have you become a fish?' The soldier replied to the county magistrate and said, 'County magistrate, you have also become a fish', and then the whole county really became a lake! Do you know the lake? ”

"You know, it's the river."

"O river...... That's right, the slower the river flowed, the lake. ”

"Grandpa, what is an old woman?"

"Hahaha...... It's a woman! When the woman gets old, she has white hair, a little baldness, a wrinkled face, and a little lame legs, just like Grandma Zhou Zhou. Your mother will be an old woman when she is old. After speaking, the old horse craned his neck and smirked.

"Am I an old woman?"

"Not now, but in the future." The old horse laughed again.

"What is a nursery rhyme?" Yang Yang coughed a few times after speaking.

"Nursery rhymes are children's songs, and the children sing them every day. Bao'er, don't you sing every day? In the past, nursery rhymes were called nursery rhymes, but now nursery rhymes are called nursery rhymes. ”

"I'm afraid ......of blood," Yangyang said fearfully, lying on the bed and holding her feet.

"Then I won't tell you bloody stories in the future."

"Can you tell another story?"

"Listen to it!" The old horse rubbed his scalp and made a difficulty.

Gui Ying woke up while pondering, sat on the edge of Yangyang's bed after entering the room in pajamas, checked the physical signs, and saw that the fever had subsided, but she had a runny nose, cough, and a hoarse voice, and she was distracted. The old horse told the old story, and Gui Ying and Yangyang touched their heads, kissed their mouths, and poked their stomachs. After eating breakfast and drinking medicine, Yangyang continued to fall asleep. Gui Ying saw that her condition had not recurred for most of the day, and she went to the company after lunch, and there was a business meeting where she would appear. 166 Reading Network
