Qiu Chen and I slipped home until the early hours of the morning and saw the sunrise. When they got home, they all took their own showers, and as soon as they were lying in bed, they received a call from their mother.

She frowned, guessing that something was going on in her family, so she adjusted her mood before answering the phone. Sure enough, the mother's call was indeed for the father's business.

"Hey, Mom, is my father sick?"

"Well, now that your father is in the hospital, his illness has improved, and your grandfather and I are taking turns taking care of him."

I was silent for a moment before I spoke: "Grandpa's health is not good, don't let grandpa run back and forth anymore, you must take good care of your body while taking care of your father." ”

Often, I should stay by my father's side to take care of him, but I am too far away from him to take care of him myself. I had a brief conversation with my mother about my father's illness or two, and then hung up the phone without talking about anything else. Just when he was about to hang up the phone, his father's hoarse voice came from the other side of the phone, "How many times have I said it, don't call my daughter, she is now the chairman of the company, she is so busy that she has time to chat with you, hang up the phone quickly." ”

Hearing my father's words, tears couldn't help but roll in my eyes, I didn't expect that my father was still caring about my affairs while he was sick, and I felt very uncomfortable. Swallowing his tears, he told his mother, "Mom, you and Dad should rest early!" Everything is fine on my side, and I'll go to see you and Dad when I'm not busy with work. I'm going to rest here too, go to bed early, good night. ”

Mom was told by my father, and hung up the phone with a calm hum. Putting the phone in front of me and looking at the photo of my father, tears flowed out unconsciously and dripped on the phone screen, as if my tears had penetrating power to penetrate the phone.

Qiu Chen prepared milk for me and knocked on the door. I was alarmed by the knock on the door and snapped back to my senses. I opened the door and smiled and let him in: "Go and rest, it's not good for your health to sleep again." ”

"I'll go to sleep right away, you drink the milk first, drink the milk and go to sleep." Qiu Chen said with the cup.

"Okay, I'll drink." He took the cup in his hand and drank it all in one gulp.

I handed him the cup as I usually did without shock, and when he was about to leave, I could see that I had just cried, and I also saw that I was clutching my phone tightly. He didn't ask me, and he believed I would tell him.

"Hurry up and go to sleep, I'm going to go out with my grandfather tomorrow!" Changing the subject, he said.

"Okay, then you can go and rest too!" He closed the door with a nod.

It's hard for me to be calm at the moment, and I don't tell myself when my father is sick, I know he doesn't want me to worry, but the more he does this, the more worried I am. Even if you drink milk, you can't sleep peacefully. Lying on the bed tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. Got up and fumbled for the pills in the bedside drawer, poured out a sleeping pill and stuffed it into his mouth.

He was in a trance, and soon he lost consciousness. When I woke up again, I found that there were many people standing next to my bed, Grandpa, Qiu Chen, Jiaxuan, Jiajun and Aunt Zhang. When I opened my eyes tiredly, Aunt Zhang saw that I was awake and hurriedly poured me a glass of water and handed it to me.

"Daughter-in-law Sun, is something happening? Did you know that you took a sleeping pill last night?" Grandpa said worriedly.

"I know I took sleeping pills myself, how long have I been asleep? What time is it?" Rubbing his head, he said.

"You've slept for a day and a night, and it's the afternoon of the third day." Qiu Chen glanced at his watch and said.

"Grandma, you can scare me to death, I've been calling you, but I can't wake up, I'm afraid that something will happen to you, so I told the master and the eldest young master, the second young master, and the third young master."

"Sister-in-law, why are you taking sleeping pills?" Jia Xuan said worriedly.

"The eldest young master, the eldest young grandmother, she won't ......?" Aunt Zhang wanted to say it but didn't dare to say it.

"Don't talk nonsense, she won't." Qiu Chen said affirmatively.

"It's just, you're thinking too much." Jia Xuan is also talking about Aunt Zhang.

"Don't blame Aunt Zhang, I took sleeping pills last night because I couldn't sleep because of my father's affairs." As he spoke, he sat up weakly from the bed.

Seeing this, Aunt Zhang hurriedly came over to help herself up, and hurriedly said to me, "Is there anything you want to eat?" Tell me, I'll do it for you now, right away. ”

said lightly, "I don't want to eat anything now, I want to stay alone for a while, you all go out!"

When everyone saw me say this, they couldn't say anything, and left silently. At the moment when the door was closed, the doctor suddenly came in, walked up to me and raised his hand to support her eyelids and looked into my eyes: "This morning, the old man said that you took sleeping pills, thinking that you would kill yourself if you can't open it." ”

When I heard the doctor say this, I immediately felt a little crying and laughing. He said, "I'm living a good life, why should I kill myself?" ”

I thought about it again and sighed, "I received a call from my mother in the early hours of the morning the day before yesterday, saying that my father was sick, and I was a little worried, so I couldn't sleep, so I took a sleeping pill." ”

After checking my condition, he said, "I see! You're scared me to death, and you're not allowed to take sleeping pills in the future, it's too dangerous. ”

"Okay, I see, thank you for making the trip." I nodded.

"It's okay, it should be." Speak.

"Eating more light food these days is very helpful for your current state." Instructed.

"I remember, I'll send you out!" He said as he got out of bed.

"No, you can stay and rest more." Stop me from saying.

I curled the corners of my lips to see that the doctor had left Qiu Chen's house. Qiu Chen came over to me and said, "Tingting, you are not allowed to touch sleeping pills in the future." ”

"I know." Nodding his head.

Qiu Chen said as he spoke, and then said, "Jiaxuan and Jiajun came to your room at least twice, and they saw that you never woke up. ”

I casually asked him, "When did the two brothers come?" ”

"Jiaxuan came once yesterday morning, and I didn't bother you when I saw that you were sleeping, thinking that you were too tired, so I didn't wake you up. The second time was at 1 p.m., and you still hadn't woken up. Jiajun came at 6 o'clock in the evening

The next time, I saw that you were still asleep and left. The last time was just now, and I felt that something was not quite right. Qiu Chen said in detail.

"I'm sorry to worry you, it's me who is wrong, and I will do this again in the future." Said apologetically.

"You weren't even awake at the time, and everyone was worried about you." Qiu Chen faintly felt that something was wrong as he spoke.

"I'm not sleepy at all now, I want to go downstairs and stay a while." Get out of bed as you talk.

Qiu Chen couldn't stop her from going out, so he had to help her downstairs. Aunt Zhang saw that I was fine, so she quickly said to me, "Grandma, what do you want to eat?" I'm going to do it now."

"Cook me late millet porridge, I can't eat the rest." After thinking for a while, he said.

"Okay, I'll go and prepare it now, right away, do you put sugar in the porridge?" Aunt Zhang asked.

"Let's go!" Nodding his head.

After Aunt Zhang left, I said to Qiu Chen, "Do you have a newspaper at home?" I want to read the newspaper. ”

"Yes, grandpa's side." Said gently.

"I'd like to see the latest issue, is there?" He asked.

"Yes." Nodding his head.

I watched Qiu Chen bring me the newspaper, page by page, but I never found the information I wanted, so I put it aside and rested in Qiu Chen's arms.

After more than 20 minutes, the millet porridge was ready.

"Grandma, the millet porridge has been cooked, and the sugar is added, it is sweet." Aunt Zhang came over with porridge.

"Okay, then you can put it there first!" Motioned for her to put it in front of me.

When Aunt Zhang was about to leave, she didn't forget to instruct, "If the newspaper comes tomorrow, remember to bring it to me." ”

"Hey, okay, Grandma." After that, he left to work on other things.

Probably because of the effects of sleeping pills and side effects, she slept for a long time. Qiu Chen also draped his clothes on me, afraid that I would catch a cold.

"Why don't you call your dad and ask how he's doing?" Seeing that I was still worried, I said.

"I'm afraid to call now, and my dad won't tell me the truth, and will do everything possible to tell me he's okay." Said helplessly.

"As long as you call, I'm sure he'll tell you the whole story." Say yes.

"Really?" Asked suspiciously.

"Really, trust me." Nodding his head.

I called my father as Qiu Chen meant, and waited for a minute or two before I got through.

"Dad, how are you doing now?" Asked worriedly.

"I'm recovering well now and can walk on the ground." Say yes.

"Then don't hide it from me in the future, okay? I'm worried about your body right now. "Ask for his opinion.

"Okay, I promise you, no matter what happens, I'll call you as soon as possible." Promised.

"Okay, I'm relieved when you say that." Smile.

"Daughter, is the company busy? If you're busy, don't talk about it, go to work first. He asked.

"I'm not busy, the company doesn't have any major events that I need to go to recently

Reason. Denied.

"Then when you're not busy, let's go over and see you, grandpa misses you." Choked up.

"Okay, come along, I miss you too. Call me when the time comes, and I'll drive you home. I also choked up.

"Don't talk about it! Your mother came over, and she talked endlessly. Then he said.

"Hmm. That's hanging!" As soon as he finished speaking, his father hung up the phone.

"You see, I'm right! He loves you and just doesn't want you to worry. Comforted.

"Uh-huh, I'm hungry, you feed me millet porridge." Said coquettishly to Qiu Chen.

"Okay, I'll feed. The millet porridge is not hot anymore, and it is just right to drink. He said as he held the bowl.

A bowl of porridge was quickly drunk, and he handed me a glass of warm water and said, "You are now a patient, you must keep your body well hydrated and keep your mind clear at all times." ”

"Now that there is another patient in the family, you can't take care of it." He paused and said.

"Who said that I took care of it and was willing to take care of the patients at home." Said with a smile.

I nodded and said, "Then I want to see if you are very serious about your work." ”

"That's natural, I don't want something to happen to the people I love." Say yes.

Hearing him say such a sentence, I couldn't help but feel that the man in front of me was right, and it was right to love her and marry him. While he was not paying attention to kissing him on the cheek, I didn't expect my action to make him start to think cranky and start to wander again.

I was about to get up and leave, but as soon as I stood up, I was dragged back by his thick arm and said, "Don't think about leaving when you sit down, report to me wherever you go." ”

I didn't expect him to use this trick against me, and said, "I'm going to the bathroom, together?"

"That's not necessary, I'll find someone to accompany you." After speaking, I called Aunt Zhang over.

"Young Master, what do you command?" Aunt Zhang trotted over.

"Tingting wants to go to the bathroom, you help her to go, the medicinal properties of sleeping pills have not completely dissipated, pay attention." Instructed.

"Understood. Grandma, I'll help you over!" After saying that, he helped me to the bathroom.

In the bathroom, I saw that my face was so haggard, and encouraged myself not to fall down. You have to stand up, because the previous one still needs to be dealt with by yourself. Only in this way will my heart be steady, and only in this way can I take on the responsibility that I should bear. I have come over myself in the past five years, and I know that it is really not easy for me, if I didn't stand up and walk by myself with this breath, then I wouldn't have the life I have now, maybe Lin Gongchen would have taken everything away from me a long time ago. I remember when I was very young, my father told me to leave as long as I had a breath left. Although when I was young, I always felt that this sentence was wrong, and gave various examples to refute my father. But now I don't want to refute it, I believe whatever my father says. Thinking of this, tears couldn't help but slide down my cheeks. The Xia family and the Lin family, rest assured, I can support the hope of the two families.
