Chapter 146: Where Are You, Child?
But Xie Qin turned a deaf ear to his son's call, lying on the table and crying, his shoulders shaking constantly.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?"
Xie Rui's voice was crying, wasn't everyone okay just now? Why did my mother cry as soon as my grandmother and aunt left? Still crying so sadly.
Xie Qin still didn't seem to hear it, immersed in his own world and couldn't extricate himself. Perhaps, tears are really a way to vent, right? If you don't want to hold it in your heart, then you can only vent it, and a woman's venting is nothing more than crying.
Feeling a pair of small hands on his shoulders, Xie Qin finally raised his head.
Her eyes were very red, her face was full of undried tears, and a strand of hair was disobediently stuck to her slightly haggard cheek, Xie Rui reached out and gently pulled the strand of hair behind Xie Qin's ear, and called out in a low and trembling voice, "Mom, don't cry......"
Xie Qin smiled when he saw his son's sensible appearance, but the tears were disobedient and wanted to flow out again, which made Xie Rui anxious, he took a tissue and kept wiping his tears for Xie Qin, while keeping saying in a nasal voice, "Mom, don't cry, okay?" Mom, I'm so uncomfortable when you cry......"
"Rui Rui, my good son!"
Xie Qin carefully held Xie Rui in his arms and couldn't cry.
Five days later
In a VIP ward of a hospital in the city, Xie Qin was peeling apples for the children, and looked up to greet his son from time to time, "Rui Rui, slow down." ”
"Got it, Mom!"
Xie Rui was taking out the car model that Li Yulian gave him not long ago to play, and Yuan Yuan and Fu Yiyi were clapping their hands and applauding on the side.
"Sister Yiyi, Yuanyuan, do you think this car is cool?"
Xie Rui put the car on the floor and asked the two girls standing proudly, his big eyes flashing as black and bright as obsidian, looking forward to the praise and applause of the two audiences. 【…… ~… Better, newer, faster]
"I don't know much about cars, but I look pretty domineering."
Fu Yi looked at it one by one, shook his head first and then nodded.
"Yuanyuan, what do you think?"
Xie Rui turned his expectant gaze to his classmates.
"Well, I think it's cool, too, even though I don't understand ----, hehe!"
Yuan Yuan smiled stupidly, and the two looming pear vortices on his face were very cute.
"Right? You guys all think it's cool, don't you? Xie Rui was even happier when he heard their words, and a smug smile overflowed his whole face, "This is what my hospitalized grandfather specially entrusted to me, hahaha!" ”
"Grandpa?"
Ningning, who had been sitting on the side watching the children play, was slightly stunned when she heard Xie Rui's words, Xie Qin's relationship with their family seemed to be good, and I don't know if the two old men knew the truth.
"Xie Rui!"
After seeing the obviously depressed expressions of the two girls who were originally happy next to her, Xie Qin stopped her son loudly, she didn't know Fu Yiyi's family situation, but she still knew more or less about Yuanyuan, for a child who grew up in a welfare home without a father and mother, maybe his son's behavior was on human wounds
Sprinkle salt, a ten-year-old child is sensitive and suspicious, and she doesn't want her son to be like this.
"Mom, what's wrong?"
Xie Rui, who was stopped, trotted to Xie Qin's side and asked strangely.
"It's nothing, mom gave you money, you take your sister and Yuanyuan to the door to buy something and come back to eat, we'll pack up and go home after eating."
Xie Qin took out two hundred yuan from his bag and gave it to his son, "Go ahead." ”
"Oh, I'm so happy to finally be able to go home!"
Xie Rui cheered, and then went to pull Yuanyuan again, "Let's go, let's buy something delicious!" ”
Fu Yiyi looked at Ning Jing sitting on the other side with some hesitation, and Ning Jing nodded slightly, "Go ahead, take care of your younger brothers and sisters." ”
"Well, got it, Mom."
After getting Tranquility's approval, Fu Yiyi finally followed Xie Rui out of the door with confidence.
In a corner of the ward, on both sides of the comfortable white leather sofa, sat Xie Qin, who was radiant and quiet and haggard, and the two cups of tea on the coffee table in the middle were almost out of temperature, but the two women were still sitting like that, and neither of them spoke first.
After a long time, Tranquility spoke: "Can you be discharged from the hospital?"
Xie Qin also spoke at the same time: "Why do you have time to come?"
The two women looked at each other and smiled, Tranquility took a sip of tea and looked at Xie Qin, "The doctor said that you can be discharged from the hospital?" ”
"Well, yes, thank you for remembering to come and see me." Xie Qin said with a grateful smile.
"I've been idle for the past two days, and my two children are also good classmates, so I brought my children over to see if there was anything I could help with."
After speaking, there was silence again.
Xie Qin was embarrassed and thought, why haven't these children come back? It's really urgent.
Actually, Tranquility is similar to her thoughts, but with one by one, Tranquility is still very relieved.
Time passed minute by minute, Xie Qin and Ning Jing drank all the tea in front of them, but the children hadn't come back yet, Xie Qin looked at his watch, it had been twenty minutes, wouldn't a few children play while walking, right? Or lost?
Xie Qin added tea to Tranquility nervously, and the two women kept looking at their watches and looking at the door as if they were sitting on pins and needles, but in the corridor outside the door, in addition to the patients' family members who came and went, there were doctors and nurses, where were the children?
"Why haven't you come back yet?"
Tranquility also looked at the time, it's almost half an hour, it's not very far from the supermarket at the entrance of the hospital, besides, even if you get lost, you can ask for directions.
Xie Qin's anxiety was clearly written on his face, "Or, I'll look for it?" ”
"Or I'll go, and you'll wait in this room, in case I miss them and I?"
Tranquility held Xie Qin's hand and stood up and said.
"Alright then, I'll pack up here and wait for you."
"yes, okay."
After the two discussed, Tranquility searched all the way along the way for the children to go to the supermarket, and the strange thing was that Tranquility had walked to the door of the hospital and had not seen the children come back. At this time, the quiet heart begins to mot
Mingdi panicked, she endured the bad premonition in her heart, and sped up her pace towards the supermarket not far from the hospital.
Coming to the supermarket, Tranquility quickly walked around the places where the children might go, but still couldn't see anyone, she grabbed a salesperson who was sorting out the goods on the shelves, "Hello, may I ask, have you seen three teenage children come to buy something?" ”
"I'm sorry, no."
The salesman shook his head and said.
"Thank you."
Tranquility turned around and asked another salesperson who was pulling a large cart of goods, but the other party still regretfully told her, "No." ”
In this way, Tranquility kept asking and looking in the supermarket, but she searched the entire supermarket and didn't see the three children, and the supermarket salesmen also said that they didn't notice whether there were such three children who came to buy things, after all, the supermarket located at the entrance of the hospital, the business is really good, people come and go, who will remember who?
Tranquility stood at the door of the supermarket and was a little dispossessed, where can the three children of such a big age go near the hospital? She couldn't think of where the children would go, and before she went out, she remembered that Xie Qin told them to come back quickly so that they could pack up and be discharged, and it was impossible to run far with this.
The uncle who was guarding the gate of the hospital watched Ning Jing keep walking around the gate of the hospital, and from time to time he stretched out his head to look left and right, so he stepped forward and asked enthusiastically, "Excuse me, is there anything you need help with?" ”
Tranquility patted her head, why didn't she remember to ask the doorman? After all, it is still more conspicuous to have three children alone in the hospital, maybe the uncle just happened to see it.
"Uncle, have you seen three children about ten years old going out of here?"
She asked hopefully.
"When?"
"Hmm~~ About half an hour ago, a boy and two girls, both about the same age, did you see them?"
The uncle scratched his head, frowned and thought for a while, then reached out and compared his chin, "Is it so high?" ”
Tranquility looked at it, "It's almost this tall, the two girls are wearing red cotton clothes, and the boy is wearing a black coat. ”
"Well... It seems that there are three children coming out of here, and they look quite happy, and the boy seems to have greeted me......" the uncle said as he recalled. "What? Haven't the kids come back yet? ”
"yes, did you see them come back?"
Uncle shook his head.
Tranquility's heart suddenly cooled half, "Where did all this go?" She spun around in a hurry.
The doorman uncle also looked at her and was not strong enough, so he could only persuade her, "Girl, don't worry, let's see if I entered the hospital when I turned around and didn't pay attention?" Or you can call the kids, don't kids have a phone or a watch now? ”
Hearing the uncle's suggestion, Tranquility slapped her head, she was stupid, why didn't she think of this? Fu Yiyi has a mobile phone, so Tranquility dialed his daughter's phone, and after a long time, the phone was picked up.
"Hey!"
Hearing the voice from the phone, Tranquility couldn't believe it, "Why are you?" Have the kids come back? ”
It turned out that Xie Qin answered the call, it seems that the children have returned, and when Tranquility just wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, Xie Qin's words made her heart instantly rise to her throat again, Xie Qin said, "Haven't you come back yet, haven't you seen them?" You didn't take your phone with me. ”
"Do you have a mobile phone with you?"
"No, where the hell did the kids go?"
Xie Qin's voice was marked with a clear cry.
"I don't know, Rui Rui's mother, don't worry, I'll look around the neighborhood, and you're also looking in the hospital."
Tranquility silently hung up the phone as she began to look down the road again.
Seeing a shop selling fruit snacks, Jing Jing stepped forward to inquire, "Excuse me, have you seen three children as tall as one boy and two women?" ”
"Nope."
"Did you see three children around 10 years old?"
"Nope."
"Excuse me, did you see two girls and boys in red cotton clothes?"
"Nope."
"Excuse me......"
"I'm sorry, no."
Tranquility stood at the crossroads, feeling like the world was spinning, sweat was already soaking through her vest, and even she didn't know if she was tired or frightened from walking. Her face turned pale and kept spinning in circles, and the buildings around her became a little blurry in Tranquility's eyes, and the whole world felt like it was going to collapse......
Where the hell are you, kids?
Tranquility shouted loudly in her heart, not only her own children, but also Yuanyuan and Xie Rui!
