The itinerary was arranged a week ago, but due to the news that Ke's mother was seriously ill, Ke Li was on a business trip again, and Xia Zhi was in a dilemma. But after some ideological struggle, he decided to recall Ke Li from the business trip first, and he had to tell her the news that Ke Mu was seriously ill, and it was up to her to decide how to decide.

When Xia Zhi told her the news that Ke's mother was seriously ill, she thought that Xia Zhi was joking with her, and said angrily: "Xia Zhi, you won't break up with me and move out the tricks my parents just used, right?" But that's my mom. ”

"Your mother told me herself," Xia Zhi flipped through his phone and showed Ke Li the message sent by Ke's mother, "I don't think your mother will use the same trick twice, and I can hear that her condition doesn't seem to be very good, I'm worried about the diagnosis from years ago... It's true, so I thought about it and felt compelled to tell you the truth. ”

Ke Li was a little confused, and couldn't say a word for a long time. Xia Zhi patted her on the shoulder and said, "Ke Li, go back, no matter what the outcome of the matter is, you can't let yourself regret it in the future." ”

Ke Li looked at Xia Zhi helplessly and said, "I'm so scared, what if my mother really doesn't have much time?" Xia Zhi, can you accompany me back? ”

Xia Zhi was silent, thinking in his heart: The trip to Xunjiang is today? If I don't go with Lawyer You, what will happen to the lawsuit on Yingzi's side? Can... Life is great!

Ke Li looked at Xia Zhi who was pacing back and forth, thinking that he was unwilling to accompany him back to Guangzhou, and said with annoyance: "Even if we are not married, we have been together for so many years, and my mother has not much time, so you should always visit her, right?" ”

Xia Zhi sat down on the sofa opposite Ke Li and said, "It's not that I don't want to go back with you, I'm just thinking about the work arrangements after I leave." ”

The company's affairs can be temporarily handed over to subordinates and Assistant Chen, and the trip to Xunjiang can only be done by lawyer You. When lawyer You arrived at the court in the small county town with a bag of court materials, Yu Xi's divorce lawsuit was in trial. Because Xia Zhi did not go along, he and Yu Xi did not know each other, so he handed over the materials to Yu Xi and the temporary lawyer, and did not leave a word according to Xia Zhi's explanation.

Guangzhou Kejia Courtyard is located in the traditional residence of Xiguan Mansion in Guangzhou. The traditional character of the houses here is particularly evident, which may seem crowded, but in fact they are tight and orderly. The Ke family has maintained the traditional customs for many years, and the Ke father and brothers live in a huge ancient house with three rooms, with Ke Li's father as the elder.

Xia Zhi came to the Ke family for the first time, and the uncles and aunts of the Ke family, the four aunts and eight aunts all thought that Ke Li brought her son-in-law to the door to recognize her relatives, and they were very curious and enthusiastic about him. Ke Li's parents were very surprised to see Xia Zhi come back together, and they both pulled Ke Li to the room and asked her what was going on, leaving Xia Zhi to face the "onlookers" of his uncle and aunt.

As soon as Ke Li saw Ke Mu, her tears couldn't help but flow down first, hugged Ke Mu and said, "Mom, you are so sick, why didn't you tell me earlier?" ”

Ke's mother wore a velvet hat on her head, which looked very abrupt in Guangzhou, where she had begun to wear summer clothes. Ke Li stroked her face and the hat on her head, Ke Mu grabbed Ke Li's hand that wanted to take off her hat, and said, "Mom is okay for the time being, I can't bear you, I won't leave so soon, as long as you are willing to come back." It's just that... Why did Xia Zhi come back with you? ”

Ke Li wiped her tears and said, "I asked him to accompany me back, I was very scared when I heard the news that my mother was seriously ill, and I let him come back with me." ”

"That's... Did he promise to stay here? Father Ke asked.

Corrie shook her head slightly. Father Ke said: "Ali, listen to your parents, don't hang yourself on a tree, Xia Zhi is very good, but everyone has their own ambitions and is reluctant." As long as you leave him, why worry about not having a good marriage! Over the years, there has been an endless stream of people who have proposed marriage, and they are all young talents who are right with us. ”

The next day, Ke's mother was accompanied by Ke Li and Xia Zhi to the hospital for chemotherapy, and Ke's father went to the company that he had not been to for many days. As soon as he arrived in the office, the secretary sent him a bunch of documents for him to sign, including contracts, purchase orders, shipping orders, and bills for supplies that needed to be billed.

The process of chemotherapy is also painful for the patient. Desperate to find out how far her mother was doing, Corrie chased the doctor to the office. The doctor showed the diagnostic film and results to Ke Li and said: "Judging from the CT film and various examinations, the cancer cells are no longer controllable, and can only inhibit its spread rate, so it is best to be hospitalized, and we can also grasp her physical condition at any time, and better take appropriate treatment plans and measures." ”

Ke Li's eyes were red, and she asked, "That... Doctor, can my mother's illness be cured? ”

The doctor hesitated for a moment and said, "There is no drug or method that can effectively cure this tumor, so you should be mentally prepared." ”

"That's... That... So how much time does my mom have left? ”

"It's hard for us to say this, but based on Mrs. Ke's physical condition at the time of treatment, it should be... It will take three months to six months, but you should always be mentally prepared. ”

"Three months?" Ke Li muttered and almost fell off the chair, but was held by Xia Zhi, and as soon as she left the doctor's office, she couldn't stop lying on Xia Zhi and cried.

Ke's mother was admitted to the hospital under Ke Li's persuasion and "coercion", and Ke Li stayed in front of the bed almost every inch, as if she wanted to make up for all the filial piety she had lost in the past. Just as Ke's mother's condition was increasingly under control, something happened to Ke's father.

On this day, the secretary sent a contract, saying that there was a problem with the factory, because a large part of the raw materials signed on the contract had not arrived, and some of the assembly lines would face a shutdown. Ke's father originally handed over the follow-up of raw materials to Ke Li's cousin, Ke's manager, who accounted for 10% of Ke's shares, but in the middle of the raw material supply, the two sides had a dispute over the price, and the raw material supplier needed to increase the original price by another 3% due to transportation and price costs. Manager Ke took the contract signed by the two parties and said that he had not agreed to the supplier's request for a price increase, and finally the supplier directly cut off the goods that had not been sent out.

Ke's father carefully read the contract twice, and the contract did not indicate that the supplier must not increase the supply price for no reason in any case, so if there is a dispute or lawsuit over this matter, Keshi may not be able to win, and what is delayed is the production and delivery time of the Keshi factory.

Father Ke rebuked his cousin and asked him why he didn't tell him what had happened. Manager Ke didn't dare to raise his head to face his brother's angry face, and said, "At that time, my sister-in-law was seriously ill, so I didn't tell you, for fear that you would be distracted." ”

Ke's father had to make up for it immediately, and asked the secretary to get in touch with the supplier as soon as possible, so that the two sides could reach an agreement on the price increase, and the other party could deliver the goods as quickly as possible, after all, a three-percent price increase was really expensive.
