I felt a dull distress in my heart, and I couldn't help but hug him tightly again, patting him gently on the back and assuring, "Mom promises you that I won't let you worry anymore!" In the future, my mother will wait for Shuai Shuai to protect her, okay? ”

Shuai Shuai immediately straightened up, pulled my face and said, "Okay! "It's so solemn.

The sense of security of my adopted son filled my whole body, and I laughed and burst into tears.

The two chatted while taking a bath, "Handsome, what do you do every day?" ”

"I went to Naughty Castle to play with my friends, take classes together, sing together, and the master always came to me and taught me archery." With white foam on his head, Shuai Shuai picked what he thought was the most interesting thing to say.

"Huh? Is there a naughty castle in this building? On what floor? "I can't help but be surprised, the time spent in this institute is not too short, and I really haven't heard of any naughty castles.

"On the seventeenth floor, Mom, I like the seventeenth floor the most! It's full of fun stuff, there are electric trains, small wooden horses, sandpits, mazes, little bees...... There are also many cars, you can play with plasticine......" Shuai Shuai mentioned the seventeenth floor excitedly, listening to what he said, well, it does look like a naughty castle, the seventeenth floor, it should be a children's paradise specially opened for children.

"Master taught you archery, how did you learn? Do you like Sister Merr? "I thought, Mer should be three years old.

Who knew that the little fat man shook his head, "I don't like it!" My sister is too young to play with her! I love McDull, we can play war, we can play with cars and guns together. ”

I looked at this arrogant little soul speechlessly, it's only four years old, you look down on people at three years old!

"What about archery? Will you? "I'm just making small talk, he's just a four-year-old doll.

"The master said I was good at archery! Mom will see me shoot you an apple later. Shuai Shuai played with bubbles and said, I was startled, "Don't let mom top apples!" ”

"Mom, the coaches and uncles said that I can learn taekwondo next year, can I go this year?"

"Listen to the coach, they said you're going to go next year next year, good. Otherwise, I don't care if they beat you. ”

"Mom, Uncle Thunderstorm taught me to take the gun apart and put it back on, his gun is much heavier than my toy gun, but I like ......"

"Your uncle is really anxious, should you be too scary if you can play with guns at the age of four......"

"Mom, I've seen enough of the aquarium, when can I go outside to play?"

"I don't know how to be blessed in the blessings, and the children in other places can't see the aquarium, even the seafood, let alone eat it. When the walls of Chengdu City are all built, you will be able to leave this building. ”

"Mom, what's on the outside of those walls? Is there a white rabbit besides monsters? ”

"Haha, of course, and the big bad wolf, do you like it?"

"Mom, will you let me grow wings? I want to fly out and see! ”

"Do you see that your mother has wings, big brother?"

"Mom, I still want to see the sea, let's go back to Changxing Island?"

"If you want to see the sea, you don't have to go back to Changxing Island, there is also a place called Nanao Island......"

……

If a child's heart is willing to open to you, you will find that their small world is very colorful, and they yearn for a wider world.

I told him that the adults were working hard to get more space for the children, and soon he would not have to play in this tall building, but at the very least, we would take back a city for the children, even though it was so small compared to the whole world.

The parent-child time with my son was happy, I didn't go anywhere on this day, I didn't see anyone, and I spent a pleasant day with my family.

The next day, Canaan and I went upstairs to visit my mother-in-law, who no longer had to lie in a hospital bed, but was leaning on the sofa in a white hospital gown and watching TV, which was actually playing the drama series "Mansion Gate".

"I've found all the dramas that the old man likes to watch," Ankyo said with a smile as he stood beside us, "I have to remind her from time to time to take a break and move around." ”

"My mother-in-law is in such a stable state, can she come back to live among us?" I looked at Onkyo eagerly, she shook her head in embarrassment, "Sister Duo, you must know that letting the elderly be quarantined is an act responsible for your whole family, and before the zombie vaccine is really developed, the old lady still has to live alone in the ward." ”

I looked at Canaan and sighed, now this situation is like sending my mother-in-law to a nursing home, although this nursing home is just up and down the stairs from our house, but this really makes people feel uncomfortable.

Canaan hugged my shoulder, "Don't get angry, Mom is very comfortable upstairs, and the Institute will try to meet Mom's needs as much as possible, food supply, entertainment and pastime......"

I know that he is comforting me, but the most worrying thing is actually him, who doesn't know that when the old man is old, he doesn't care how he eats, and as for entertainment, it is far less than enjoying family affection with his family.

We went in to talk a lot with my mother-in-law, mainly because I told her interesting stories along the way, saying that it was interesting things, but in fact, most of them were a little tragic, but my mother-in-law still listened to them with relish, like a child's curiosity.

"Mom, are you lonely here?" I touched my mother-in-law's wrinkled hand and asked distressedly.

"What's lonely and not lonely? When your father was alive, he didn't like to talk, and then the old man left, leaving me alone, and I didn't feel so lonely. The mother-in-law smiled, "When I was young, I was very annoyed with your father's stuffiness, until I was the only one left, and I found that the sullen temper also has advantages, at least after his death, it didn't make me feel too far behind." It's been more than ten years since your father died, Canaan has been going to school and working in Bencheng, and I'm living on the farm by myself, which is quite comfortable and quiet, just like now, but this will be more advanced, someone cooks and washes the dishes, and I don't have to do any housework myself, and I finally have time to review the TV series that I haven't watched all the TV series before, which is good. After I saw the door of the mansion, I saw that Zhu Gege, hey, I was very busy. Besides, we live up and down the stairs, not far away, my in-laws and Canaan come up to accompany me all day long, by the way, Duo'er, you tell your parents, don't run to me all day long, they are also old, my floor is a ward after all, there are bacteria, the elderly have weak immunity, don't get any disease, Canaan doesn't have to come up every day in the future, come up once a week, just show me the photos of Shuai Shuai, you always come up and disturb me to watch the series......"

Mother-in-law is an empathetic old man, she said a lot of lively, just to comfort us not to be too uncomfortable, but also don't want us to involve too much energy in her, Canaan told me before, mother-in-law is a very new old man, she has no old habits in her heart, has never pestered her son, more inclined to the Western mother-son and grand-grandchild relationship, retain their own independent space, live independently, do not disturb each other, often visit. So she wasn't used to spending too much time with my parents right now.

After chatting for less than an hour, Onkyo knocked on the door and came in to say that it was time for my mother-in-law to have physiotherapy, and we had to say goodbye to my mother-in-law and make an appointment to come back tomorrow.

"I don't think my mother-in-law likes us to use her as a serious illness to be nervous, our emotions are too anxious, think about it, in fact, this adds pressure to her." When I got out of the ward, I said to Canaan.

Canaan nodded, "Mom's health is fine now, let's still be the same as before, just as Mom is still living on the farm, we are still in Bincheng, I go upstairs to accompany my mother these days and am always scolded by her, saying that if I soak her every day like this, she will wonder if her terminal illness has worsened and she will not live for a few days." ”

"Huh?" I looked at Canaan in amazement, he hadn't said that to me.

"So I decided to listen to my mother, come up to accompany her for a while or so, and usually take more videos and photos of Shuai Shuai, so that I can show my mother, what she thinks about most is her grandson, not me, hehe." Canaan smiled.

"Is there a new group of people coming to the base? The leader from Guangxi is called Nie Yong, who is from Jilin. I asked my husband.

"It's here, my daughter-in-law is pregnant, right? I heard that you introduced me. I haven't met them, they were arranged by Dr. Ann. "Canaan knows this, the base is not big, and everyone will know about it as soon as the newcomers come.

"Accompany me to see the two of them, this Nie Yong is very righteous, he is a very good person, let's ask Dr. An how many floors he arranged them to......

I was a little surprised by Onkyo's answer, she said that the people led by Nie Yong were arranged by her to live in a separate apartment outside the research institute building, which was not Onkyo's decision, but General Pi's advice.

"Why? The city of Chengdu has not yet restored electricity and hydropower, so it is inconvenient for them to live outside, right? I asked curiously, "Isn't there any room in this building?" ”

Anqiao shook his head, "There are still empty rooms, but General Pi said that there will be more newcomers to the Chengdu base recently, and they can't live in the building, so they will start with Nie Yong and them, and move to the periphery, and the power and water power in the city will be restored as soon as possible, and now the research institute will provide them with drinking water and food." ”

I listened to it and felt a little bad in my heart, Nie Yong is a big man, his daughter-in-law has another big-bellied woman, living in an apartment building with no water and electricity, and I feel a little sad.

"There are two pregnant women in Nie Yong's team, does Dr. An know?" I couldn't hold back the matter in my heart, and I couldn't help but ask.

"I know that the obstetrics and gynecology ward has been prepared for them, and they can be admitted to the hospital at any time, and their family members can accompany them, but Nie Yong's lover and the pregnant woman refused to move in now, saying that they would be hospitalized again after giving birth."

"Oh, it's great that pregnant women can live in the institute building, this time we also brought back two pregnant women, named Qin Xiaowei and Gao Xiaomin, can Dr. An arrange their accommodation?"

"I have been arranged to enter the obstetrics and gynecology ward, and there will be someone to take care of their diet and pregnancy tests, Sister Duo, do you want to take a look?"
