Chapter 11 Conflict

"Yuan Ying... Yuan Ying..."Ding's father's voice was very weak, and he called the name of his second son.

Ding Yuanying held the back of his hand firmly and said softly, "Father, I'm here." ”

"Let me die... Let me have dignity... Leave with dignity..."Ding's father's voice was very weak, and Ding Yuanying leaned over to understand what his father wanted to say.

"Father, I understand." Ding Yuanying had already made a decision in his heart.

The old man fell asleep again, but his hands were still trembling slightly, Ding Yuanying left the ward, and his third sister left with him.

After a while, Lu Yan quietly slipped in, he looked at the thin little old man lying on the hospital bed, and felt a little distressed in his heart.

He had tubes all over his body, he was on a ventilator in front of him, his palms trembled slightly, and you couldn't tell if it was an instinctive reaction of the human body or if the old man in front of him was feeling great pain.

The old man's brow was tightly knit, and he did not sleep peacefully.

Now it seems that only the band on the ECG monitor at the head of the bed can prove that the old man's body in front of him is full of vitality, and the band is advancing and bulging, maybe he is struggling with death.

Lu Yan finally left silently, he couldn't bear to watch such a scene again, and he couldn't understand why Ding Yuanying would say such a thing "cruelly and ruthlessly"!

followed Ding Yuanying all the way to his hometown, and heard him and his eldest brother arguing fiercely.

"Let's discuss it with our mother, let's have a meeting to see what to do with our father's matter, and how to share the money." Ding Xie Hui had a sad face and whispered tentatively to Ding Yuanying.

"If it's a matter of sharing money, then I won't participate." Ding Yuanying stood up from the chair with an expressionless face.

But this was questioned by the eldest brother: "Why don't you participate?!" ”

Ding Yuanying said lightly: "I only know that he is my father, I don't know who you are." ”

Ding Xie Hui was instantly angry: "Don't you know that he is also my father and Ding Qiuhong's father." ”

Then he began to take responsibility for Ding Yuanying: saying that he would not go home for several years; There is never a human word in the mouth; He also said that he was ashamed to tell the hospital that money is not a problem, which will make the hospital use high-priced drugs, and now hemodialysis machines and ventilators are used.

In Lu Yan's opinion, Ding Yuanying's actions don't look like a normal and emotional person, why is such a person so respected by netizens?

Ding Yuanying seemed to hear Lu Yan's doubts, "I'm not angry with you." Ding Yuanying's expression was flat, with a condescending sense of overlook, as if he could tolerate all your ignorance and ignorance, "If I know that my father is not only my father, but also your father, then I must think of sharing responsibilities, otherwise my heart will be unbalanced." ”

After a pause, he said: "Everyone thinks so, my eldest brother and I are outside, if Qiuhong thinks the same when he pours tea and water for his father, he is also your father, then this bowl of water will not be able to last, and the result is that our father can't drink water." ”

"Qiu Hong takes care of her parents, and the inheritance will be his." Ding Xie Hui said sullenly.

"Should the parents who don't have an inheritance still be on the wall? It is already wrong to take responsibility, and it is even more wrong to add a virtue to filial piety. That should be the blood relationship itself, as it should be. ”

What Ding Yuanying means by this sentence is: He is my father, and I will do my duty, and I will not forcibly divide the responsibility into three parts, and then throw out two-thirds of them to you.

Lu Yan was stunned aside, Ding Yuanying's words were like an iron cone chiseled into Lu Yan's heart, and before he could come back to his senses, Ding Yuanying spoke again.

"In principle, I will bear my father's medical expenses and possible long-term medical care and possible future expenses."

"Why, in principle? Because he is also your father, there is a problem of emotional expression here. ”

"If the eldest brother thinks that Qiuhong has been very fortunate to take care of the elderly in the past two years, it is okay to put a few dollars to express his feelings."

Expression of feelings, expression of feelings... Lu Yan had this sentence circling in his mind.

Judging from the various behaviors of the eldest brother, he still regards his father as a burden, whether it is from the beginning of the sharing of medical expenses, or the act of having to treat his father, I am afraid that in Ding Yuanying's eyes, it is just an act that he does not want to pay too much money and is afraid of being charged with unfilial piety.

On the contrary, he repeatedly said that Ding Yuanying, who was impersonal, and did things to return to the basics.

It's just that Lu Yan thinks so... It's not good, it's because Lu Yan is still alone, and Ding Yuanying is too rational and rational, he doesn't look like a person.

Lu Yan looked at Ding Yuanying, who had a calm face, and couldn't help but feel a fear in his heart.

"You're rich, if you didn't have money, would you say that?" Ding Xie Hui said angrily.

"There are many children who have no money, where to do it, dedication is the standard, and the extent to which it is not the standard."

"Dad's left hand is still conscious, and now I can't be sure whether it's a critically ill unconscious or a vegetative unconscious, and I can't give up until the last moment when I'm sure it's a vegetative person, if it's a vegetative person after the critical stage..."

"Then stop paying the fee, I'll go and pull out the oxygen tube." Ding Yuanying said this kind of words without the slightest fluctuation, only a chill welled up in people's hearts.

"Even if you are in a vegetative state, you can't pull out the tube, I'm the eldest son, and it's not your turn to speak in this family! We can't let others say that we are unfilial as children! Don't let someone poke you in the back! Not to mention that there is still some money at home, even if you smash the pot and sell iron, you have to keep our dad's breath! After all, Ding Xie Hui showed the majesty of his eldest brother.

This made Ding Yuanying take a deep breath, his calm expression finally changed, and he said: "Attention, what I say below is only for myself, if my reputation for filial piety is conditional on my father's pain and dignity, I really don't know what I am." ”

"You're paying attention, too! This thing of yours is conditional on our father's life. ”

The two competed against each other, and neither could convince anyone.

Lu Yan was the only outsider on the scene, and he also fell into deep thought: when the patient has no ability to choose, should he be allowed to live with sin, or let him die easily?

He didn't know, he really didn't know, maybe he recognized Ding Yuanying more in his heart, but his fundamental attributes as a "person" told him that Ding Yuanying might not be a person at all.

Such an absolutely sane person does not exist!

"Yuan Ying, this is your father, you can say such ruthless words as pulling out the tube, raising children to prevent old age, he ended up like this, what's the use of having children." Ding's mother sighed for a long time, and the familiar and strange son in front of her seemed to have become the most unfilial person in the world.

"Mom, if you raise a child to prevent old age, then don't say how great a mother's love is, whether you raise it or for yourself, that's an exchange. If you don't talk about it at the same price, if you meet someone who is so unfilial to me, even if you lose it. Ding Yuanying became more and more calm, like a well-structured machine, with the foreshadowing of the competition with his eldest brother, he didn't even bother to hide it.

The eldest brother grabbed Ding Yuanying's sore feet: "For so many years, you have been used to being comfortable outside, why haven't I seen you take a bowl of porridge and a bowl of water for your mother, since you said that it was originally related by blood, you should have shown me such a first?" ”

"I am ashamed and guilty of my parents, I don't fit into the short life of my parents. My parents can't adapt to my kind of life, which is very contradictory, so I have always been grateful to Xie Hui and Qiuhong, who have been taking care of the elderly..."

After all, Lu Yan breathed a sigh of relief, Ding Yuanying still had emotions as a human being, but he was too calm, and Lu Yan didn't know whether it was right or wrong to learn from him.

But thinking of Ding's father's state on the hospital bed, Lu Yan can understand him very well.

However, he also has his bottom line, Ding Yuanying's thoughts can be used as a reference, and he doesn't have to absorb them all, after all, he can't be as ruthless as Ding Yuanying.

He can't do such a thing as pulling out a tube for his biological father no matter what, whether it's foolish or filial.

Lu Yan suddenly wanted to smoke, although he had never smoked...
