Hu Wanqing and his wife moved to Jindingshan for more than three months. Although he is not in the same community as his eldest daughter Hu Baiyun and son Hu Baiyang, the distance is not too far, and they can often meet and reunite and live a life of retirement.

Hu Wanqing and his wife also have a son Hu Baiyue who teaches at Southwest University, although they can't often go home to see, but the couple has a son and a daughter waiting in front of them, and they are not alone.

Hu Wanqing turned out to be a famous professor of Chinese painting at the Academy of Fine Arts of a university in Jilin. In the 90s of the last century, he was recruited to teach at a university in Yanbian, and the government awarded him a house. After retiring, the husband and wife and their children have been living separately, and it is very inconvenient to come and go.

In the autumn of last year, after Hu Wanqing and his wife Susan recovered and were discharged from the hospital, at the suggestion of their eldest daughter Hu Baiyun, they finally made up their minds to take out a deposit of 2.5 million yuan that was auctioned at the Beijing Art Exhibition a few years ago, and bought a 220-square-meter two-story villa in Jindingshan Community, plus the decoration cost nearly 3 million yuan.

The two old men were satisfied. Daughter Hu Baiyun praised her father and said: "This is the vision of the old man in the new era!" ”

Son Hu Baiyang also encouraged his mother: "Mom, take good health." There are reports abroad that old people who can spend money live a long life! ”

Mother Susan is always neither humble nor arrogant, and complied: "I came to Jinding Mountain Treasure Land to recuperate for longevity." ”

Once, his son Hu Baiyang drove an Audi to visit his parents.

Dad is painting in the study. There is a remittance slip of 1,000 yuan on the top of the desk. Hu Baiyang put the seedless watermelon in the net pocket on the coffee table, wiped a handful of sweat and said,

"Dad, don't be busy. I'll bring delicious watermelon and enjoy it, it's never too late to cool off. ”

Looking at the remittance slip on the desk again, he asked suspiciously, "Dad, who did you send money to for good deeds?" ”

"It's a hobby for Dad, so don't ask!"

"Dad, I'm just asking, I don't mean anything else!" After speaking, he asked again, "Is this a donation to that needy family?" ”

"As I said, it's none of your business! This is a good deed of Dad, a happy thing! Hu Wanqing said.

"Okay, don't ask, don't ask. Cut the watermelon and eat it. ”

Hu Baiyang took out a watermelon from his net pocket and washed it with cold water. Then he went up and slashed, and the emerald green watermelon split in two rows. After cutting a few more knives, pieces of red seedlings and childless watermelons were placed on the plate with a smile, waiting for parents to share.

"Where's Mom?" Hu Baiyang asked.

"She's not at home. I went to the neighbor's aunt's house. ”

"Call my phone and tell my mom to come back and eat watermelon. This is a new type of sweet and crisp seedless watermelon bred in space, more than ten yuan a catty. It's a shame not to be happy! ”

"Forget that your mother has diabetes and can't eat watermelon!"

Only then did Hu Baiyang remember that his mother had severe diabetes. I don't emphasize it anymore.

Hu Wanqing ate a piece of watermelon. I wiped my hands with a tissue, picked up the pen and started to draw again.

"It's hot, don't draw Dad. Retirement, no more than young people, still work so hard, take care of your body. ”

Saying that, Hu Baiyang picked up another piece of watermelon and put it in his father's mouth, "It's smart, eat another piece, eat another piece." ”

"Take care of your mom more. She has a bad heart, high blood pressure, diabetes, and I'm worried! Hu Wanqing said with emotion.

"Dad, don't I often come to see my mother these days? Is it good to bring her the nutrition products for the elderly? If it works, I'll buy more, and you can eat it too. ”

"Health preservation should also be more spiritual encouragement and care. The spiritual function is in charge of the whole body, it is the headquarters, the command center, that can't be ignored! Hu Wanqing said earnestly.

"Yes! I agree with that. The elderly are in good spirits and have strong immunity, so there are naturally fewer diseases. I think the climate is cool during this 'Eleventh' holiday, so I will take the two elders to Hainan for sightseeing and have fun! ”

"That's not going to work, Yangyang. Your mom is frail and sickly, with high blood sugar and poorly controlled blood pressure, which may be related to mood swings. I'm worried about her coronary heart disease recurrence. Hu Wanqing said in a heavy tone.

"What's wrong with Mom, is she under psychological pressure?" Hu Baiyang asked puzzled.

"Well, she's always rough. Indifference to one's illness. I often forget to take medicine and injections, and I can't even remember my mouth! ”

"That's not going to work, Dad. If this continues, it will aggravate the development of the disease, which is very dangerous! ”

"Yes! Every time before and after meals, I always remind her to take medicine and injections. But that's not enough! For her, I resigned from many foreign affairs activities, and I couldn't help it. ”

"I see my mother's illness, and it has nothing to do with my lack of attention to maintenance for a long time."

"A few years ago, I was busy, and after I retired, I worked in the studio most of the time, and I participated in social entertainment a lot, so I felt a little sorry for your mother's illness, let alone care and love. Now it seems that the problem has become apparent. In the future, we can only be more determined to solve this problem! ”

Hu Wanqing paused for a moment, and then said in an accentuated tone, "From now on, I will shift my focus to your mother and do everything possible to ensure her physical and mental health." ”

"I think it's better to go to a big hospital to find an expert doctor to recheck my mother, so as not to delay the condition!"

"That's right, Yangyang. I've been waiting for your sister to reply these days. A few days ago, she reminded me to go to Beijing University Hospital to find a famous doctor for a comprehensive examination. She said she had classmates in Beijing to help. ”

"It's best to go to Shanghai Hospital, where there are world-class medical facilities and medical experts. Although there are many famous hospitals and doctors in Beijing, the price is too expensive. It is necessary to make an appointment to wait, and it will cost a high fee......" Hu Baiyang just finished speaking.

Hu Wanqing's cell phone rang. It was her daughter Hu Baiyun who called. "Dad, I got in touch with my classmates in Beijing. Just wait for them to call, and if I can contact the experts, I will ask for leave and take my mother to Beijing to see a doctor. Dad, please be patient, right? ”

Hu Wanqing immediately replied: "I think it's okay." Can I take a leave of absence? ”

"It's not a big problem. I work in the teaching and research group, mainly responsible for the research of the subject, and the time is not so rigorous, try it, there will be no problem. ”

"Okay, I'll hear back from you."

"Looks hopeful?"

"yes. Be patient and wait for news from your sister. ”
