Seventy-nine

Dongmei called me and asked if I could complete the work in my hand, and I didn't know how anxious I was when I heard it. I'm taking care of the sick here, and I'm urging me to go to work. So I said, "Dongmei, I'm afraid tomorrow will be enough, because my father-in-law is sick, and I am now taking care of it in the hospital, I don't know if someone else will come to replace me tomorrow, if there is, I can almost send it to you in the evening." But if no one comes, it won't be delivered tomorrow. ”

I called here, and Zhang Xu's father heard it. He said to me apologetically, "Wen Li, are you chasing you to live?" ”

"It's okay, her work is not in a hurry, she just wants me to send it early and let me do more work." I don't want Zhang Xu's father to be anxious, so I can only comfort him like this.

"Wen Li, you just said this because you were afraid that I would be in a hurry, right? I know someone must be in a hurry, or I can't call you? ”

"Dad, don't listen to her call. You don't know, all the bosses are like that, she put the work out, obviously it was the 10th delivery, she also had to say that it was the 5th shipment, the purpose was to let us finish it in advance. I'm already familiar with their routines, so don't worry. Don't worry, if someone comes in my place, I'll go back. If no one comes, I'll be here to take care of you. ”

Zhang Xu's father didn't say anything more when he heard me say this. I guess the old man must have felt very guilty in his heart, and felt that he was dragging me down. After putting down Dongmei's phone, I don't know how anxious I am, don't look at what I persuaded the old man to say that. But I'm really afraid that tomorrow no one will come to replace me.

My business is doing well right now, and I still tell my customers to come tomorrow during the day. If I can't go back tomorrow, won't I miss my appointment?

I thought about these things all night. Fortunately, the empty bed was not occupied at night, so although I was taking care of the elderly in the hospital, I still had a good night's sleep. Because Zhang Xu's father doesn't have anything to do at night to use me to help.

By the next morning, there was really no one coming. My heart was cold, and I thought to myself, it looks like I'll have to take care of myself for another day. But what I didn't expect was that Zhang Xu's sister-in-law came over in the afternoon.

When I saw Zhang Xu's sister-in-law coming, I was very happy in my heart, and I was finally able to go back. If you don't say anything else, you just promised the customer yesterday to let you come today, and you can't miss the appointment. As for Dongmei's work, it will definitely not be able to be sent away at night, but I can go back later and send it the next morning, and there should be no problem.

I smiled and said to Zhang Xu's sister-in-law, "Sister-in-law, are you here?" ”

"Yes, I didn't have time to come over yesterday, and today I'm here, you should go back and rest, you didn't sleep well last night, did you?"

"Okay, I slept well. Then I'll leave sister-in-law. "I said to Zhang Xu's sister-in-law.

"Let's go, I've got it. You don't use it at night, just come back tomorrow. Zhang Xu's sister-in-law said. Because in the past, we were also watching one day by one.

"Okay. Sister-in-law, thank you for your hard work. “

"It's fine."

"Dad, I'm leaving." I said to Zhang Xu's father again.

"Let's go, there's still chasing you over there." Zhang Xu's father said.

I walked out of the hospital and went straight to the station to catch the bus.

At this time, Zhang Xu called me and asked me, "Wen Li, have they gone, big brother?" "Zhang Xu called me a few times on this day. He was afraid that I would be there watching alone. He was always afraid that I would watch more than his sister-in-law, so he started calling in the morning to ask if his eldest brother and sister-in-law had come over.

"My sister-in-law is here, I've come out of the hospital, I'm walking to the station now, I'm going back."

"They finally went." Zhang Xu said.

"Okay, you can work, don't talk about it, it's not good to always call your leaders to see it." I said to Zhang Xu.

"Okay, then I'll hang up. You go back and rest for a while before you get to work. Lie down on that couch for a while. Zhang Xu instructed me.

"yes, I see."

After hanging up Zhang Xu's phone, the bus that happened to be there also came, so I hurriedly got on the bus.

When I got to the store, I got to work. I thought I could do a little more, because I would have to go to the hospital tomorrow to change Zhang Xu's sister-in-law. So try to do as much as you can. When Zhang Xu came back in the evening, I also chased him and hurriedly helped me work. I didn't chase him before. Just because Dongmei is chasing me to work now, and I have to take care of Zhang Xu's father, I have to do as much as I can.

Zhang Xu also knew that my work was in a hurry, so he was more nervous than before. While doing it, he complained: "I am tired like a grandson in the factory this day, and I have to work overtime with you when I come back." I'm used as two people. “

When I saw him say this, I wanted to contradict him: "If I don't take care of your father, will I need to work so hard?" But when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back, so why argue with him for a few words? As long as he can help me, I can say whatever he wants. Anyway, it's not a day and a half a day for him to be so unreasonable.

I've heard such a story before. It's just that two people are arguing, and finally hit the county office. The county magistrate asked the two of them why they were arguing.

One of them said, "I said it was 3721, but he had to say 3724, so that's why we quarreled." “

The magistrate then asked B, "Why do you say it's 3724?" ”

B said, "Is thirty-seven twenty-four?" ”

So the county magistrate ordered someone to beat the armor into five boards. After A was beaten, he endured the pain and said a little unconvinced: "They all say that the eldest master is fair in judging the case, but obviously what I said is right, what he said is not right, why did you just beat me, but not him?" ”

The county magistrate said: "You have been fighting with a person for so long a day, who will you fight if you don't beat you?" Don't you know that he is an illiterate man? If you quarrel with him like this, will you not be the same as him? ”

As soon as A heard what the county magistrate said, he had no more to say.

When I heard the joke, I just laughed it off. It was never taken as a thing. Now think about it, what is the difference between Zhang Xu and that person who is 3724? He knew everything in his heart, but he just didn't want to talk about it. So what's the point of me arguing with him? It's just dry anger.

I didn't say anything when I thought of it, he complained if he wanted to. I'll just do my job. When it was time to go back in the evening, I took some of the work to my home as before.

But Zhang Xu said: "It's so late, you have finished eating at home, how can you have time to do it?" Don't you sleep? ”

"It's okay, you can sleep first, and I'll do it for a while. I squinted a little on the couch here during the day today. Actually, I didn't rest on the couch. But I'm afraid that Zhang Xu won't let me work, so I can only say that. After all, I still have to deliver it early, no matter whether Dongmei is really in a hurry or a fake hurry, since people are urging, then I have to hurry up as much as possible.

In this way, I took care of the business of the store while taking care of Zhang Xu's father. By the time Zhang Xu's father was discharged from the hospital, I had lost a lot of weight.
