118. A man who belongs to me, a father who belongs to my children
Lele's scald was finally judged to be a second-degree burn, a small arm was full of small blisters, as long as you look at it casually, your heart will be entangled, what worries me even more is that the doctor just came to take Lele's temperature, and it actually burned to 38. 5. In this case, it is necessary to go through the hospitalization procedures.
After Zhou Hengyi came back from a circle, he happened to hear the doctor's words, so he asked me to take care of Lele, and then turned around to go through the formalities, Lele saw the rattle beside him, as if he had forgotten the pain, and said with a smile: "Mom...... Play. ”
After I heard this, my heart was soft, and I took the rattle to play with him, and at this time a little couple came into the ward, holding a daughter in their arms, it seemed that they had just come from the emergency department, the girl hugged her father and cried, and the father coaxed him softly, and the mother took out a bag of small snacks from the bag on the side and handed it to the daughter, and the child stopped crying.
A family of three, the scene is really warm.
I forced myself to withdraw my eyes, and after a while, a young couple came in the ward, and walked directly to the hospital bed inside, and I heard the child cry grandparents.
I suddenly felt sorry in my heart, what about having enough food and clothing? The old man has something to rely on, and the little one has love, maybe it is a harmonious and beautiful family, but in fact, I can't give Lele this kind of small wish.
Originally, it was nothing, but at this moment, someone suddenly called my name, I looked up, and it was Aunt Zhang who called my name.
The little girl lying on the next ward was actually Aunt Zhang's granddaughter.
When Aunt Zhang saw me answer, she knew that she didn't recognize the wrong person, and then walked over, looked at Lele twice, and said, "Xiaojie, is this your child?" ”
That's when it occurred to me that I was an unwed mother.
"Xiaojie, when did you get married, why didn't you notify us when you drank the wedding wine, look at how clever the little guy looks, what's it called?"
"Lele." I didn't know how to answer, so I said two words.
"Little Lele, I'm Grandma Zhang," Aunt Zhang looked at the burns on Lele's hands and said, "Ah, it's hot!" ”
I nodded and didn't respond, but Aunt Zhang said, "Why are you here alone, and my niece and son-in-law aren't there?" ”
This question is my hard wound, although it is the 21st century, but in the eyes of this group of old people, unmarried mothers are still a very shameful thing, thinking about it, I can only remain silent.
Aunt Zhang sniffed out something, and then said, "Xiaojie, how can the child be alone when he is sick, call the child and his father to come over." ”
Lele didn't know what Aunt Zhang was talking about, she looked at the old man in front of her curiously with big eyes, and pursed her lips.
How ridiculous, it's obvious that he has a father's child, but now he can't say it for some reason.
At this moment, the door of the ward opened again, and Zhou Hengyi walked over with the completed hospitalization procedures, looked at Aunt Zhang in front of me, and then looked at me, with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
Aunt Zhang looked at Zhou Hengyi, looked at me again, and said with a smile: "Oops, it looks like I misunderstood." Xiaojie, this is my niece-in-law, right? ”
As soon as these words came out, a trace of surprise flashed on Zhou Hengyi's face, and then he nodded slightly at Aunt Zhang, even if it was a hello.
Aunt Zhang returned to her granddaughter's bedside with interest, and after a few words of comfort, she left with her wife, and the nurse gave Lele three bottles of drips, and at the end of the second bottle, it was almost midnight, but fortunately, the little guy's fever had subsided, but the small bubbles on the wound had burst.
Lele showed his eight small teeth painfully, and Zhou Hengyi kept teasing him with a glove doll, and I persuaded him to go back after I sent a message to Xiaobai, but Zhou Hengyi continued to stay here as if he didn't hear it.
Lele fell asleep when he was tired of playing, and seeing that the time was about to reach midnight, I glanced at Zhou Hengyi opposite and said, "Mr. Zhou, why don't you go back first." ”
Zhou Hengyi glanced at me and said, "Miss Yuan, forgive me for taking the liberty of being ......"
I thought about Aunt Zhang's words, and said embarrassedly: "I'm not married yet." ”
"No wonder."
"How?"
"I am alone when I buy groceries, and my child is also sick alone, so I was curious, and now I understand." Zhou Hengyi lowered his voice, as if he was afraid of clinical hearing, and said, "You are really a heroine among women." ”
It's the first time I've heard of the definition of "heroine among women", so I asked curiously: "Mr. Zhou really won the award, you know, in my case, I can't match Haojie." ”
"Definitely," Zhou Hengyi looked at me and said, "You are unmarried, but you have the courage to give birth to a child, it is enough to see that you have feelings for your children and your ex, and moreover, how much effort it takes for a woman to raise a child is not understandable to ordinary people, so Haojie deserves it." ”
I was praised by Zhou Hengyi's opinion and felt a little better, and then I heard him say: "When my wife was pregnant, she often couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, and her hair fell out a lot...... I understand. ”
I glanced at Zhou Hengyi casually, only to find that there was a hint of a smile on his paralyzed face, if I remember correctly, when he said about his son, he also had this expression.
I didn't dare to ask more, for fear that one of my words would touch this man's sadness.
Zhou Hengyi saw that I didn't speak, so he walked out of the ward, I glanced at the door of the ward, and saw that he took a cigarette out and walked away.
I think he must be missing his wife and children.
Accompanied Lele overnight, the next day the little guy was much better than yesterday, sat on the stool and kept watch all night, suddenly felt a sore back, stretched a lazy waist, a small blanket suddenly slipped down from my body, black and white flannel, obviously exclusive to men.
That's when I remembered Zhou Hengyi.
Just as the little nurse came to check the ward, I asked casually, and heard the little nurse say, "Oh, your husband, you just asked us where the breakfast supply point is, and I guess I'm going to buy food." ”
It's really not my husband.
Lele played too late last night, and woke up after hearing the little nurse's voice, stretched out her little arm as requested, and was slightly relieved when I heard the nurse say that the wound would not worsen.
Glancing at his phone curiously, there was nothing but Xiaobai's reply.
In fact, this was also expected by me, I put my phone away, and then I saw Zhou Hengyi walking in.
He packed dumplings and millet porridge, and handed the dumplings to me, and the rice porridge said it was Lele's.
Lele doesn't have much ability to recognize people now, but Zhou Hengyi has been by his side last night, and he has obviously won the love of the little guy.
Seeing me watching, he said, "You can eat it too, you can be discharged from the hospital after eating, those ointments are applied externally, and you can use them according to the instruction manual." ”
"Have you eaten?" Actually, I don't have much appetite.
"Yes, I've eaten it."
The matter of the document suddenly flashed in my mind, and I said, "Mr. Zhou, what time is it, should you go to work?" ”
Zhou Hengyi glanced at his watch and said, "Eat quickly, send you back, I will rush back to the company after taking the documents." ”
I quickly ate a few bites, for fear of delaying Zhou Hengyi's time, after completing the discharge procedures, it was already half past eight in the morning, Lele, the little bastard, actually clamored for Zhou Hengyi to hug, as a result, I fell to the part of holding the bag, and when I arrived at the gate of the hospital, Zhou Hengyi handed Lele to me, let us wait at the intersection, and then go to drive.
I stood at the intersection with Lele in my arms, looking at the crowds and vehicles coming and going, and suddenly my heart became very calm.
At this moment, I suddenly heard someone calling my name, and I immediately turned my face away, and saw my little aunt Zhang and two unfamiliar faces standing not far away, looking at me in surprise.
Especially the face of the little mother, it was like seeing an alien, a pair of eyes stared at the boss, and then walked over quickly, her eyes fell on Lele's face, and said, "Your child? ”
As a mother's instinctive reaction, I held Lele in my arms and did not speak.
"Where's the child's father?" My mother looked at me, lowered her voice and said, "Yuan Xiaojie, you are amazing, you haven't contacted your family for the past two years, but after you came back, you brought a child back, what your Aunt Zhang knows, you actually hide it from us!" ”
"Mom, I'll explain to you another day."
"Didn't you say that the child's father was also there? What about people? Is it surnamed Zeng? Isn't it? ”
"It's not!" I was in a hurry, and after yelling, I said, "What do you want?" ”
The little mother looked at Lele and said, "Whose child is that?" It can't just pop out of a rock, right? ”
My mother's voice was very loud, but I was very clear about her purpose, I was so afraid of scaring Lele, and I was afraid of touching his wounds, so I could only turn around helplessly.
"Yuan Xiaojie, don't you say that I also know, the surname Zeng came back half a month ago, so coincidentally, you also came back?" Seeing that I didn't speak, my mother continued: "You are amazing now, everyone is engaged, what are you involved in?" Do you have any self-esteem? ”
I was angry by my mother's words, my lungs were on fire, and I was about to speak, when I glanced at my eyes, I saw Zhou Hengyi walking towards me, and a thought quickly popped up in my mind, so I simply ignored my mother's words, looked at the man standing in front of me, and said, "Do you see it?" The kid is his father. ”
The little mother suddenly turned off the fire, and a pair of eyes fell on Zhou Hengyi's body, and the speed of changing her face was really not ordinary.
Because of lying, my face also turned a lot red, but fortunately, there was Lele in the way, so I could only desperately give Zhou Hengyi a look. This man's ability to look at his eyes is really not ordinarily good, he glanced at his mother, said hello with a calm face, looked at me again, and said, "Let's go, the car can't be parked for too long." ”
I took advantage of the situation and walked a few steps, when I heard my mother behind me shouting, "Come back and sit down in two days." ”
After getting into the car, I hurriedly glanced at Lele and found that he was not unusual, so I breathed a long sigh of relief. Then, I apologized to Zhou Hengyi.
Zhou Hengyi glanced in the rearview mirror and asked, "The one just now, is it your relative?" ”
"My little mother."
Zhou Hengyi didn't speak again, and then drove seriously, the car was parked downstairs, because of the documents, he went upstairs with me, and Xiaobai told me that he and Zhao Yang went to Shanghai, so after taking Lele home, I explained to Zhou Hengyi, and went downstairs with the key.
The document was completed, Zhou Hengyi got up to say goodbye, I thought that he hadn't rested well all night, and said while thanking him: "Mr. Zhou, when Lele is better, I will invite you to dinner." ”
Zhou Hengyi glanced at Lele and said, "There is a chance." ”
It's just that I didn't return overnight, and my home seems to be the same as before, but somewhere in my heart, something has changed.
Lele will be sleepy after taking the car, I coaxed him to sleep, and then cleaned up the boiling water spilled on the coffee table, it was close to noon after being busy, Lele was still sleeping, I took the opportunity to turn on the computer, and then I saw today's headlines - shocked, Singapore's rich queen Luo Qi attempted suicide last night, it is reported that this woman was engaged to Hengyu executive director Zeng Ziqian two years ago, and the reason for suicide may be because of love......
Really.
It turned out that the reason why it didn't turn on overnight was because of Wang Luoqi.
Yesterday, Wang Luoqi said on the phone that Wang Lei had saved Zeng Ziqian's life, and he hadn't mentioned it to me before, but I can understand it, but now, Wang Luoqi is the biggest obstacle between us, I understand that between men and women, if you want to come together, you must pay a lot, some people break up because of the house, some people break up because of cheating, and some people break up because the family does not support them, these problems do not exist between me and Zeng Ziqian, but Wang Luoqi has consumed all my patience.
At the most vicious time, I hope this woman will disappear directly, but now it seems that she has just grasped Zeng Ziqian's weakness, knowing that she can't forget the grace of saving her life, and knowing that she can't pretend that nothing happened to him, so she gambled with her life, and her extreme won his softness, I can understand, but I can't accept it.
Two years ago, maybe I would have been looking forward to this woman one day waking up, but now, I don't look forward to it, I have Lele, Lele needs a complete father, not when he has the ability to learn, he was instructed to be the illegitimate child of someone.
Thinking of this, I was calm, two years ago, I didn't have to live up to Zeng Ziqian's feelings, and two years later, I can't let my son suffer any grievances.
After having this kind of thought, the whole person is a lot more free, a few years ago, the feeling of suffering from gains and losses, since it has not appeared, at nine o'clock in the evening, the mobile phone on the table rang, the phone was called by Zeng Ziqian, as expected, the opening is to apologize.
"Let's talk about it tomorrow, you go back and rest first."
"I want to see you."
"I'll see you tomorrow, just right, I have something I want to tell you."
There was silence on the other end of the phone, I knew that I couldn't put pressure on Zeng Ziqian at this time, but I was really not generous to this extent.
"Actually, I'm downstairs at your house." Zeng Ziqian's voice was a little aggrieved, and he said: "Yesterday, the mobile phone ran out of battery, and I rushed over as soon as I got out of the hospital......"
"Ziqian," my tone was much calmer than I had imagined, "I think we need to be separated for a while. ”
"Huh?"
"I understand that you can't have no feelings for Wang Luoqi, just like I do to Yang Heng, if you don't handle your relationship with her like this, I can also choose to live alone."
"You know ......"
"I know everything, so I'm waiting," I stopped Zeng Ziqian from speaking, I knew that as long as he spoke, there were some things I couldn't say, "I don't want much, a man who belongs to me, and a father who only belongs to Lele." ”
