Chapter 18 Encountering a Fellow Countryman

At first glance, the stall couple are people who have been in Guancheng for a long time, and they probably know the thoughts of the young lady. They have already seen through this ghost place, the rich and the poor are polarized, the rich are eager to get rich, and the poor people, especially migrant workers, especially the poor young children from the southwest like these two sisters, who come to Guancheng to break through, abound. He didn't drive them away when they finished eating. But he still remembered that it was difficult to see the Sichuan villagers in this place, so he charged a fraction of Qinyang's 8 yuan.

When they closed their stalls at four o'clock in the morning, the middle-aged man who was wearing an apron kindly said to the Qin Yang sisters, "It's too late, you should go to the bench of the hospital and hold on for another two hours before dawn, it's not safe outside!" ”

Indeed, the supper stall of the villager couple is less than 200 meters away from the main entrance of the hospital! Qin Yang thanked the fellow couple and returned to the hospital with Qin Yue again.

Qin Yue, who was full, was really much better than before, and even her speech became full of neutrality!

Back at the hospital, the main lights of the hospital have been turned off, and only a few lights are lit in the corridor or staircase.

Qin Yang found a place with a stool, and under the light, motioned for Qin Yue to lie down and rest. She herself sat down and used her thighs as Qin Yue's pillow!

She thought that Qin Yue, who had been tired for more than thirty hours on the train, needed sleep the most, but with her head resting on her lap, Qin Yue still had her eyes open for most of the day.

Qin Yang asked her a little puzzled, "Why don't you sleep?" ”

"Sister, I'm scared, there are a lot of mosquitoes!" Qin Yue was a little timid when she said this!

"What's there to be afraid of? Isn't there for me? Qin Yang did not deny that there were many mosquitoes that his sister said. Because just now, her thin arms and legs had been bitten by mosquitoes at least five times, she felt extremely itchy, and wanted to reach out to scratch it, but found that Qin Yue's head was resting on her thighs.

"No, sister, as soon as I closed my eyes, I thought of those gloomy and frightening scenes, I didn't dare to sleep, sister!" Qin Yue's words were half like a pleading.

A place like a hospital can indeed make people feel this way, Qin Yang understands his sister in his heart! Maybe if it were her, she wouldn't be able to sleep, and she would feel the same horror and discomfort. It's just that tonight, even if she is tired from working during the day, her arms and legs are sore, but she doesn't feel sleepy at all! Because there is always an indescribable mission in her heart, "I am my sister, I must protect my sister." ”

Suddenly, Qin Yang raised his head and saw a blue sign on his head with five large white characters written on it.

At this time, she suddenly remembered that when she had just arranged for her sister to lie down here, she always felt that it was obviously a hot summer, but it made people feel cold and cold here!

What the five words "intensive care medicine" mean, Qin Yang knows! That is, not far from here, all the people living here are critically ill. And many of these critically ill patients will step into the ghost gate at any time, and they will be separated from their relatives from yin and yang.

So, Qin Yang

Pull up my sister and "Let's go, I'll go find a bed for you to sleep in!" As soon as she heard that there was a bed to sleep in, Qin Yue's eyes suddenly flashed with excitement and longing.

Qin Yang took Qin Yue to the inpatient department according to the hospital's signs! Although it was late at night, the corridor of the inpatient department was brightly lit! Countless fluorescent lamps illuminate the corridors of the inpatient department as bright as daytime.

At this moment, there is a nurse on duty who is dozing off on the duty table of the nurse's station. Qin Yang walked lightly past her with her sister, and she didn't notice it at all, continuing her "chick pecking rice." "It's really hard to work in the hospital, Qin Yang couldn't help but sigh deeply in his heart.

Qin Yang took his sister Qin Yue and kept going inside! Seeing an empty bed, Qin Yang looked around, and confirmed that there was no suspicious object on the metal boom, and stretched out his hand to probe into the quilt, and after making sure that the bed was ownerless tonight, he motioned for Qin Yue to lie down and helped Qin Yue cover the quilt.

I have to say that this place is really much more comfortable than in the corridor just now, and there is a cool central air conditioner. Qin Yue poked her head out, "Sister, you can also lie down and sleep for a while!" ”

"I'm not sleepy!" Qin Yang only said three words lightly, and then sat on the edge of the bed and acted as his sister's "guardian saint." ”

Yes, whether in the story or in real life, my sister will always be my sister's patron saint. However, some sisters will become the patron saint of their sisters one day.

Sure enough, Qin Yue lay on the bed for a while and let out a slight snoring sound.

In the quiet corridor late at night, there was a heart-rending cry: "Doctor, nurse, come quickly." Immediately after, the call bell at the hospital duty desk sounded like a shrill horn! The nurse on duty, who was dozing off just now when the chick pecked rice, was suddenly awakened. She immediately stood up and ran straight in the direction of the shout.

In less than two minutes, Qin Yang saw a patient who was lying on the bed with his mouth wide open and breathing rapidly from the depths of the corridor. Just now, the nurse on duty also nervously followed behind, loudly urging the family members, "Hurry, send to the emergency department, don't worry about crying first, hurry!" ”

A group of people, crying and screaming, passed in front of Qin Yang, including the nurse on duty just now. This sad scene was clearly seen by Qin Yang, who was sitting on the edge of the bed guarding his sleeping sister.

"Probably my father was in such pain before he died!" Qin Yang thought to himself. However, neither she nor her sister were able to see their father for the last time. According to my mother's account, my father died at home. Three hours before he died, he drank most of the bowl of cabbage porridge, and his spirit was obviously much better than usual. But I never thought that it was just a reflection of my father before he died. After three hours, the person was gone. This is what his mother Jiang Cuilian told Qin Yang after his father passed away.

However, just now, almost the entire corridor was so noisy that the people who were sleeping in the deep sleep rubbed their sleepy eyes and got up to look at it, but Qin Yue was the only one who was still snoring as if nothing had happened, enjoying his sweet dreams evenly.

See the bed

On the sleeping sister, Qin Yang's heart swelled with a burst of peace. She planned in her heart that Ming'er would go to the village chief's house early in the morning to make a phone call and ask him to tell her mother that her sister had arrived safely and smoothly and was now with her.

However, Qin Yang still couldn't understand why his sister was so impulsive? A little girl of fourteen actually ran so far alone. It's also a great courage. Therefore, she didn't plan to scold her sister for half a sentence. However, despite her thoughts, she eventually went against her original idea.

This night, for Qin Yang, seemed to be many times longer than the usual night.

Finally, he waited until half past six in the morning, Qin Yang calculated, there was still one hour left before the time to go to work, and it was only thirty or forty minutes to take a taxi back here. Therefore, she decided to let her sister sleep a little longer. So, she continued to stay by the bedside.

At seven o'clock in the morning, Qin Yang woke up his sleeping sister Qin Yue, and took her to the bathroom, and after washing her face with cold water, he combed his five fingers and neatly tied his sister's somewhat unkempt shawl short hair into a bunch with the rubber bands he carried. My sister's whole person looks much more energetic!

On the way back, Qin Yang still asked the words buried deep in his heart: "You are so young, why did you run so far alone?" ”

"Sister, you must not know how much debt our family owes, 109,000 yuan, nearly 110,000!" When she said this, Qin Yue's voice was obviously choked! However, she went on to say, "With so much money, it just depends on your part-time job and your mother doing that dirty and tiring work on the construction site, and I don't know if it will be returned to the Year of the Monkey." Do you know? Sister, my mother would come home at eight o'clock every night with a tired and gray face, and the next day she left before dawn, and I felt distressed when I looked at it. ”

When he heard the specific number of debts that his sister said and the fact that his mother went to work on a construction site, Qin Yang's heart trembled suddenly. She was silent for a long time before she spoke, "But, Xiaoyue, you are now in your youth, you should study hard, and you will have a future in the future!" ”

"Sister, seeing that you and your mother are tired all day long, and I go to school comfortably, do you think I will feel good in my heart?" Qin Yue began to sniff, and Douda's tears slipped from her eyes.

Qin Yang suddenly felt that Qin Yue, who only knew how to skip class with bad boys and girls all day long to go to the Internet café to surf the Internet, suddenly became a lot more sensible, and a burst of relief surged in her heart, "But Xiaoyue, you are only 14 years old after all, even if you are a part-time worker, people do not recruit child labor!" "Speaking of age, Qin Yang is only 18 years old! In the eyes of other adults, she is just a childish little girl.

"Sister, go and talk to your supervisor, I only need half of your salary. Although, I know, I may not earn much money, but as long as I promise not to spend the family's money, isn't it also reducing the burden on you and your mother? What she said sounded very reasonable, but although she was only four years older than her sister Qin Yang, she understood that there was no life

My sister said it so simply! But she is still very pleased with her sister's sensibility and understanding.

Qin Yang took his sister to get off the bus a short distance from the factory, and found a nearby public telephone supermarket, ready to report to his mother Jiang Cuilian that a sister had arrived safely.

What the two sisters Qin Yang and Qin Yue didn't expect was that their mother Jiang Cuilian didn't go to work on the construction site today, she specially asked the boss for a leave, and what she was looking forward to was this phone call to report safety.

Last night, Qin Yang didn't think about borrowing the hospital's phone to make a phone call to the village chief's house to convey the news that his sister had arrived safely. But it was already nearly zero o'clock, and Qin Yang knew that the village chief's family must have fallen asleep a long time ago, and it was not good to disturb others so late! Almost all the people in my hometown live a life of "working at sunrise and resting at sunset". It's not as popular as nightlife in big cities. Therefore, it is common to go to bed at about 10 o'clock in the evening at the latest.

So, she tried to make the call when she made sure the village chief's house was up and someone was home.
