Chapter 2 Front-end
After returning from Wang Jiandong, Zhang Ming suddenly had an urge to escape from the hospital.
Yes, she was afraid to return to the ward, afraid to face her father-in-law.
And the idea of escaping is just the instinctive psychology of human beings when faced with unsolvable problems.
But escapism is clearly unrealistic.
Because she still has to face her father-in-law after all.
But what does she say about this kind of thing?
As an outsider who has nothing to do with himself, Wang Jiandong can take it for granted that he can easily pronounce a person's death sentence from a rational point of view.
But she couldn't.
Because it was her relative, her lover's father.
She stood outside the door of the hospital room for a long time, until she pushed the door open with some relief.
Her father-in-law had already sat up from the bed, and when he saw her come in, he didn't say anything, and turned his head to stare out the window.
"Dad, Dr. Wang is busy, and he will come over in a while.
You wait a little longer. ”
Zhang Ming didn't say anything in the end.
But after her father-in-law heard this, he said in a weird way:
"Get me out of the hospital, I don't want to stay here for a second.
I don't want to see that shit doctor again! ”
Zhang Ming was a little aggrieved by what her father-in-law said, after all, she didn't tell the truth for her father-in-law's good, her eyes glowed red, she didn't say anything, turned her head and left the ward.
She enlightened herself in her heart that her father-in-law was a sick man, an old man whose life was about to come to an end.
So no matter what the other party says, as a daughter-in-law, she shouldn't have any resentment.
Thinking about it like this, Zhang Ming suddenly felt much more comfortable in his heart.
After completing the discharge procedures for her father-in-law, Zhang Ming drove her father-in-law towards Hamasaki City, where her home was located.
Hamasaki is not very far from Qihai, and it only takes about two hours to take the expressway.
Zhang Ming drove in front, while her father-in-law sat in the back.
In the process, she really wanted to find a topic to talk about with her father-in-law.
But the few times I tried to speak, I gave up because I didn't find a suitable topic.
The atmosphere in the car was very bad, Zhang Ming wanted to play a song to listen to, but as soon as she opened it, her father-in-law said very dissatisfied:
"Can you turn that thing off? The ghost cries and the wolf howls and listens to the annoyance! ”
Zhang Ming was told by her father-in-law, so she had to obediently turn off the song, and her mood was even worse.
Her father-in-law was a very kind person before he got sick.
It's also very good for her.
really treated her as her own daughter, saved money every day, and secretly gave her the little money she earned by opening a hardware store, for fear that his son would let her down, which also moved her very much.
Something like losing his temper with her and saying something like her had never happened before.
But after getting sick, her father-in-law seemed to be a completely different person, not only his personality was much more irritable, but his speech also seemed to be sharp, and he became very hurtful.
She couldn't understand why being sick would make a person's temperament change drastically.
It becomes strange, and it becomes terrifying.
At about 4 o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Ming and her father-in-law returned to her house.
Her home is the kind of upstairs and downstairs duplex structure.
It's like a cottage.
Upstairs is the bedroom, downstairs is the living room and kitchen.
The reason why she bought this house at that time was not only that she and her husband liked this kind of duplex structure of the building, but also because as her father-in-law got older, there was also a place for her father-in-law to move over and live with them.
After returning, Zhang Ming sent her father-in-law upstairs, and after settling her father-in-law, she then left the house.
Because she also needs to go grocery shopping and bring back her children who live at her best friend's house.
In the past few days, her husband has not been able to come back, and she has been driving her father-in-law to see a doctor all over the world, so the child has no one to see, and it is too far to send it to her parents, so she asked her best friend to take care of it for a few days.
When she came out of the house, Zhang Ming first called her husband and asked her husband what time his plane would come back today.
After asking clearly, she called her best friend:
"Xiaoqing, I'm back, I've worked hard for you these past few days, I'll pick up the child in a while."
"Look at what you said, Taotao is your son, and he is also my son, and you are my godmother on a temporary job.
Don't pick up the kids, the kindergarten has a sports day today, and it will end at 3 o'clock.
I'm eating KFC with Taotao.
You took your father-in-law to see a doctor, did you see something? I'm afraid you're busy these days, so I didn't call you to ask. ”
"I see. Hey, stomach cancer is in an advanced stage, and it won't last for a month at most. ”
"Has it been diagnosed?"
"It's confirmed. I have almost visited all the famous cancer hospitals.
The result was the same, and the hospital didn't recommend treatment, so I brought the person back again. ”
"Hey, why are you saying this man is so fragile. It's a good old man, his body is so healthy, he said he fell, he fell. ”
"Which KFC are you and Taotao in? I'll drive over now and we'll see ......."
When Zhang Ming came to KFC, her son was munching on a burger with a mouth full of oil, and when he saw her, he immediately put down the burger and pounced on her.
A pair of oily hands also left a few mimeographs on her.
"Mom, you're finally back, I miss you to death."
"I want to beat you to death. You kid can't eat well, you have to grab a hand of oil, and it's all on me. ”
Although Zhang Ming said this, she was still very happy to see her son.
Her son's name is Tao Tao, 5 years old this year, with a smiling face and a very cute face.
"You damn it, as soon as you see your child, you will discipline him. I think I'm biological. ”
After Zhang Ming's best friend Han Qing finished speaking, she said to Taotao:
"Taotao, you ungrateful little thing, when you see your own mother, you forget your godmother, right?
You've forgotten who makes you food every day. ”
"I like godmothers too. But I like my mom a little more. Tao Tao heard Han Qing's words and replied decently, which also made the two women laugh.
Although Zhang Ming's purpose was to pick up Taotao, when she saw Han Qing, she also had an idea of wanting to talk, so she sat down without a hurry and chatted with Han Qing, and the topic naturally revolved around her father-in-law.
"My father-in-law is thin now, you may not be able to recognize it when you see it."
"It's only been a few days?" Han Qing looked a little surprised when she heard this.
"Stomach cancer is like this, you can't eat anything, and you will vomit blood."
"It's really sick, this disease is really terrible."
"No, I've been accompanying my father-in-law to see a doctor for the past few days, and I've been a little scared by him.
Not only has his appearance changed, but his personality is also very different from before.
A face looks very gloomy, and people are looked at with that very resentful, even hateful look.
It feels like I'm like his enemy.
It's like because of me that he got this terminal illness.
In short, this feeling can't be described, it's just very uncomfortable. ”
"That's the case with patients, especially if they still have this disease.
It is said that cancer is very tormenting, and it can kill people when it hurts. There are some things that you have to look at, and you can't be the same as the old man and the sick person. ”
"Of course I knew, but the contrast between my father-in-law and my father-in-law was too great, and everything happened so suddenly that I was a little caught off guard.
But after a few days of getting used to it, I should get used to it. ”
Han Qing's constant enlightenment also made Zhang Ming lose his desire to talk.
After all, she understands everything, she just wants to talk, not listen to who teaches her.
"My father-in-law is still at home, I'm a little worried about him, let's do this today, I'll take Taotao back first."
"Okay, I'll go to your house to see the old man in two days."
Knowing that Zhang Ming had something to do, Han Qing didn't keep her anymore, and after Taotao said goodbye to his godmother, Zhang Ming left with Taotao.
