Chapter 15: I don't want to take the college entrance examination anymore
One day during a physics class, Wu Di suddenly fainted.
Li Xiao and a few classmates hurriedly sent Wu Di to the nearest Water Bureau Hospital. The school also rushed to inform her father.
Half an hour later, her father arrived. Thin, short, protruding eyes, abnormally large neck, remembering the hyperthyroidism that Wu Di had said, Li Xiao understood the reason for Wu Di's father's abnormality.
After her father came over, Li Xiao and her classmates left.
The next day, Wu Di didn't come.
For several days, it was like this.
Wu Di's seat was empty, lonely and lonely.
Everyone has been speculating about Wu Di's condition, but I heard that he was transferred to the hospital, and no one knows the specific situation.
Approaching New Year's Day, one afternoon in a self-study class, the head teacher walked in.
"Let me tell you a sad thing, Wu Di from our class was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia and has now been transferred to the Municipal People's Hospital. The school was also shocked to hear the news, and now mobilize everyone to donate, Wu Di is from our class, so start from our class. ”
Hearing these three words, Li Xiao thought it was just an ordinary disease, and thought that it would be fine if he took injections and medicine.
"You may not know much about leukemia, which is often anemia at the onset of the disease, which usually manifests as fatigue, fatigue, palpitations, dizziness, etc. There will also be fever, bleeding, manifested as skin petechiae, ecchymosis, nosebleeds, bleeding gums, gastrointestinal bleeding and even central nervous system bleeding.
Wu Di has to prepare for chemotherapy, and the cost is not cheap. Wu Di's father is an employee of our unit, his mother has no job, and there are two younger siblings below, and the family conditions are not very good. I hope that the students can lend a helping hand and help Wu Di through this difficult time. ”
At this time, Li Xiao remembered that Wu Di always looked pale, lacking in blood, and showed tiredness and weakness.
The classmates in the class responded to the class teacher's call and immediately began to donate money, and Li Xiao also donated his pocket money. Then the class teacher said that the school will organize student representatives to send donations, and our class will also send a representative, whether there is anyone they are willing to go.
Li Xiao immediately stood up and said that he was willing.
The time to send the donation to the Municipal People's Hospital was set for a week later.
A week later, when he came to school in the morning, Li Xiao gathered according to the notice. went to see Wu Di, there was a school leader, a fresh student representative, and Li Xiao. The school arranged for a car to take them.
Not familiar with the leader and classmates, Li Xiao sat there quietly, and when the leader asked about Wu Di's situation, he occasionally answered, and most of the rest of the time was silent.
When the car crossed the Songjiang Bridge, I saw a group of people holding wreaths by the river, crying and shouting as they walked. I heard that a production captain was hacked to death by a bully in a neighboring village, and the villagers spontaneously gave the captain a funeral.
Li Xiao felt a trace of sadness in her heart.
After crossing the bridge, the speed of the car increases. The road to the city was a little rough, with many detours, turning around, Li Xiaoxiao, who was not used to riding in a car, was dizzy and fell asleep after a while. When she woke up, the car was moving slowly, and the car had already entered the city.
When they arrived at the Municipal People's Hospital, Li Xiao and his classmates followed the school leaders to the inpatient department. Wu Di lives on the tenth floor, double room. Wu Di was lying on the bed, his hair had been shaved. The eyes are deep-set, the cheekbones are prominent, and the body is even thinner under the wide hospital gown. When he saw us come in, he sat up with a faint smile on his face. Seeing that she was about to get up, we quickly signaled her not to move. When her father saw the school leaders coming, he hurriedly came over to greet him enthusiastically.
Her father said that the current condition is okay and that his condition is not getting worse. After chatting for a while, we handed over the donation to Wu Di's father on behalf of the school. When her father accepted the donation, he kept saying, "Thank you, thank you, thank you so much."
Wu Di's tears also flowed. Li Xiao walked over, Wu Di hurriedly stretched out his hand, wanting to hold Li Xiao, Li Xiao took the initiative to grab Wu Di's hand. The originally full palm suddenly lost a lot of weight, and it is not an exaggeration to say that "skinny" is not an exaggeration. The illness came like a mountain, and a good person was tossed like this, Li Xiao was speechless, and looked at Wu Di quietly, his silent eyes contained too much content.
Wu Di seemed to understand Li Xiao's thoughts, raised her head again, and smiled: "It's okay, the doctor said that it will be fine after chemotherapy."
"Hmm," Li Xiao nodded.
"I must study hard and get admitted to university." Wu Di still didn't forget to tell Li Xiao.
"Well, you have to take care too."
"Wu Di," the nurse came in and urged Wu Di to go for a check-up, and we left without any stay.
Letting go of Wu Di's hand, Li Xiao seemed to feel that something was going to pass, and he couldn't tell and couldn't grasp it. She wanted to cry very much, but she kept holding back, and when she saw Wu Di's wheelchair disappearing at the door of the ward, Li Xiao couldn't hold back her tears anymore.
On the way back, the school leader who went with her said that Wu Di's condition was not optimistic, her condition deteriorated rapidly, and she was malnourished for a long time, and chemotherapy drugs and radiotherapy had affected her gastrointestinal function, which could also lead to her stomach failure.
Hearing this string of terrible terms, Li Xiao's mood became even more dull and depressed.
After New Year's Day, the New Year is approaching.
The end of the last monthly exam indicates that the review of this semester is coming to an end, and the college entrance examination is approaching one step closer.
After the last class, everyone packed up their things and prepared to go home. The head teacher walked in, with a sad face, and said with a heavy heart: "Students, Wu Di is gone."
"What?" Everyone exploded all at once.
"How is that possible?" Everyone doesn't believe me.
Li Xiao's reaction was no less than that of other students.
"Really?" Li Xiao asked rhetorically.
"Hmm." The head teacher looked at the sad Li Xiao and nodded.
What happened later, Li Xiao can't remember clearly. She mechanically packed her school bag, mechanically left the classroom, and mechanically walked to the ridge path she usually walked. What was once lush fields is now full of depression.
The steps are heavy and the mood is sad.
Accidentally, Li Xiao was knocked down by a stone, and the person was unstable and fell on the ridge. The pain was accompanied by pain, and tears instantly burst out of my eyes, and I couldn't help crying loudly.
After suppressing it for so long, she finally cried uncontrollably. failed in the college entrance examination, but she didn't cry. Her father scolded her, but she didn't cry. My uncle laughed, but she didn't cry. Because of Wu Di, she cried. The girl who shook her hair, raised her face with a smile, was pale, and often hummed "My future is not a dream" left completely.
She could have lived well, if she hadn't been malnourished, if she hadn't read every day, if she hadn't slept in a lot of materials every day, she could have lived well, she could have married well, she could have had children, and she could have seen the scenery well. But it all ended before it even began. She pinned all her dreams on the college entrance examination, and now her dreams have not come true, and people have gone. I don't know how long I cried, I was tired of crying, and it was getting dark.
She returned home and solemnly said to her father: I don't want to take the college entrance examination anymore.
