Under Du Manlin's careful care, Kang Jiawei's health is getting better day by day. The face is ruddy, and the blood is vigorous; The cheeks gradually appear fuller, and the fat is blessed; There is often a smile on the corner of the mouth, and the mood is bright. Despite this, the lower part of his body was still unconscious, and there was little chance of recovery, barring a miracle. However, Du Manlin was not discouraged, she said that as long as Kang Jiawei still breathed, it was possible to stand up. Therefore, she put all her energy on Kang Jiawei, working day after night, day after day, endlessly. She always thinks that it is impossible for the world to pay without returns, she looks forward to and waits for the day of return, dreaming that Kang Jiawei will stand in front of her vividly, give her a hot kiss and a hug, and then take her hand to inspect the project, stroll along the riverside, talk about the past, talk about the present, and talk about the future; Then he hugged his daughter, she held her son, and the family walked happily through the streets and alleys, lingering in shopping malls and supermarkets, and playing in places of interest...... However, the reward of waiting did not come, nor did the dream of longing, only Kang Jiawei's extreme disappointment in his body. He already knew that he had no possibility of standing up at all, so he didn't want Du Manlin to continue to toss worthlessly on himself.

"Manlin, you rest, I'll tell you something." Seeing Du Manlin coming out of the inner room with a large stack of clothes, Kang Jiawei hurriedly greeted.

Du Manlin put the clothes on the table, and while propping up the movable part of the bed to let Kang Jiawei sit up straight, she took care of him: "I will talk about it later, the weather is good today, go outside to bask in the sun, look at the scenery, and adjust your mood." By the way, I went to my dad's house to see the golden boy and the jade girl. ”

Kang Jiawei couldn't ask for it, and nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "Cheng, I also want to go and see our baby!" ”

It turned out that after Du's mother passed away, Du's father and Du Manlang moved back to Du's house from the company, considering that the golden boy and girl stayed in the company and had no one to take care of them, so they had to live with their grandfather to Du's house. Du Manlin sent someone to Jinhua Town to invite Uncle Qian and Aunt Qian, the two old men of the five-guarantee household who had taken care of the golden boy and jade girl, to Du's house to serve the golden boy and jade girl.

After leaving the company and walking on the industrial avenue surrounded by green trees, Kang Jiawei sighed and admired from time to time.

"What, you, a big entrepreneur, are worried about the country and the people again?" Du Manlin joked.

Unexpectedly, a joke not only did not make Kang Jiawei happy, but made him sad: "You see that I have become a waste, how can I still worry about the country and the people?" ”

"I'm sorry, Jiawei, I was wrong."

"Manlin, you're right. Although I can't worry about the country and the people, I can worry about my wife, you have given all your life for me; I can worry about my children and my daughters, because I, my children, have lost the joy and happiness of childhood; I can worry more about our family, the company has become bigger, the family business has become stronger, but I have fallen and become a burden to the family. ”

"Jiawei, you are a very responsible man, you are like this, you still think about me, your children, your company, and your home. Do you listen to my advice, think more about yourself, you are the backbone of the family, as long as you live strongly, the happy mansion of our Kang family will never collapse. ”

Unconsciously, I have arrived at Jinsheng Square, which borders the industrial park and the county seat. The ancient trees in the square are towering, and the scenery is particularly charming. Du Manlin pushed her wheelchair to the bottom of a century-old camphor tree in the center of the square.

Kang Jiawei looked up at the ancient tree and sighed: "It's really a thing or a person, seeing this tree reminds me of an interesting childhood life." I remember when I was in the third grade of elementary school, I was playing hide-and-seek with a dozen boys in my class in this area, and the other classmates were discovered, but I was not found at all. Where do you think I'm hiding? It is hidden in one of the densest nests of this camphor tree. ”

Du Manlin was amused by him: "No wonder you still exude a disgusting smell of birds on your body now." ”

"Is that birdish? That's masculine. Kang Jiawei deliberately put his nose close to his armpit and sniffed, "It's a pity, it's not a man anymore, and the manly smell is gone." ”

Du Manlin was a little angry when she heard this: "Don't always curse yourself, when are you not a man?" When did you lose your masculinity? I think you're getting more and more of a man's spirit. ”

"Is it possible? You know it in your heart, and I know it better in my heart. In this life, it is impossible for me to be a man who stands up to the sky. ”

"What is a man? Men are the sky, holding up a space for their women and children to soar; Men are responsible, carrying heavy responsibilities to make their women and children happy. Du Manlin put her arm around Kang Jiawei and stared at him with wooden eyes, "Jiawei, no matter what you do, you will always be the man who stands up to the sky in my mind." ”

Kang Jiawei gently stripped her hair with his fingers, and stopped talking, wanting to stop talking: "There is something I have thought about for a long time, and I have to tell you today." ”

"Let's talk about things between husband and wife, it's not good to be scheming."

"What's the scheming? Yes、I'm worried that you won't give me face.。 ”

"When did you say something and I didn't give you face? Give it all. ”

Kang Jiawei pretended to be serious and nodded: "It seems that they have all been given." ”

"Everything seems to have been given. If the husband says that the wife does not give support, can the husband and wife be of the same heart? What's up? Let's say, husband and wife will always rely on each other. Kang Jiawei hesitated for a while before speaking: "Man Lin, you have also seen that my body is already an ironclad fact, and it is impossible to change it. Therefore, you and I might as well replace our roles, and you will be the general manager of the company, and I will fully exercise the authority to manage the company; As for me, my whole body retreats and recuperates my body. Manlin, what do you think? ”

Du Manlin couldn't make up her mind for a while, stared at Kang Jiawei, and after a while, she said, "Okay, I agree to accept the position of general manager." However, I have one condition, you must cooperate with the doctor and me to continue the treatment, and when your body recovers, the general manager is still yours, and I am still your assistant. ”

Kang Jiawei nodded: "I promise you." Tomorrow morning a board meeting to announce your appointment. ”

"Should you be in such a hurry?"

"The sooner the better, the country can't be without a monarch for a day, and our company can't be without a general manager for a day!" Kang Jiawei tapped the wheelchair with his fingers, and the wheelchair made a crisp sound, "Let's go, go see our little baby." ”

The Du family, because of the death of Du's mother, is no longer noisy in the past.

When Du Manlin and Kang Jiawei arrived at the door of Du's house, they heard the innocent and lovely frolicking sounds of the golden boy and the jade girl coming from the house.

Du Manlin shouted into the house: "Golden boy, jade girl, come out quickly, and see who sees you coming." ”

"Mommy is here!" "Mommy is here!"

After a while, the golden boy and the jade girl staggered out of the house. followed by Father Du, Uncle Qian and Aunt Qian.

Du Manlin opened her arms, hugged the golden boy with one hand, hugged the jade girl with the other, and kissed one of them on the face.

"Look, who's coming?" Du Manlin pointed at Kang Jiawei and said.

"It's Daddy." The jade girl lay on the wheelchair and looked at Kang Jiawei with little eyes, "Dad, the child only let his mother push and walk, you are an adult, why do you still let your mother push and walk, are you a big lazy worm?" ”

"Don't talk about dad like that." The golden boy curled his lips and traced his little finger to the jade girl, "You didn't hear my uncle say that he accidentally crushed his father's leg while driving." When the injury was healed, Dad was able to stand up and walk on his own. ”

Kang Jiawei smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into two slits, and crystal clear tears rolled in the slits.

"Dad, are you crying?" The jade girl said.

"Dad is not crying, Dad is happy." Golden Boy said.

Kang Jiawei patted the little faces of the golden boy and the jade girl, and tears fell down like pearls.

Seeing Kang Jiawei crying, the golden boy and girl were at a loss and became afraid.

Du Manlin squatted down, took the golden boy and girl into her arms, and comforted: "Don't be afraid, Dad is not crying, Dad looks at you so cute, and he is happy in his heart, and he sheds tears when he is happy." When she said the last sentence, she couldn't help but shed a lot of tears.

At this time, Uncle Qian took the hand of the golden boy and Aunt Qian took the hand of the jade girl and walked towards the house.

Father Du helped Du Manlin up: "Let's go into the house, Dad just finished the meal, let's have a meal together!" ”

Kang Jiawei shook his head: "Dad, no need, I'd better go back, when I see the golden boy and girl, my heart hurts, and I always feel that I owe them too much." ”

Father Du wanted to say something, but was stopped by a look from Du Manlin. As a result, Kang Jiawei didn't even enter the door of Du's house, so he went home.

When she got home, Du Manlin asked curiously: "On the way back, I kept thinking, why don't you say a word to the golden boy and girl?" ”

Kang Jiawei said embarrassedly: "I want to say, but I am crying below my mouth, and I can't speak at all, and as soon as I open my mouth, I cry!" Can I cry in front of my child? ”

"It's not that you didn't cry, instead of holding back your crying, you should cry out loud."

"I'm afraid of scaring the child."

"Do you think you're a big man, you don't scare the child because you are silent and speechless? Didn't you see that the child was scared by you and leaned on me? ”

Kang Jiawei sighed heavily, lowered his head, and looked at Du Manlin again after a while.

Du Manlin also looked at herself: "I don't have anything on me, why do you look at me like this?" ”

Kang Jiawei said to himself: "Although people are thin and haggard, they have a delicate figure and are more beautiful." ”

"Who are you talking about?"

"Who else can you say, say you!"

"Me? They are all thin and beautiful. ”

"You're just skinny and the most beautiful in my eyes."

Du Manlin opened her mouth wide and looked at him fixedly: "Jia Wei, you haven't praised me for a long time." I remember every time you complimented me, you had something important to say to me. Say it, say whatever you want, hurry up. ”

Kang Jiawei showed a very hesitant expression, opened his mouth a few times, wanted to speak, and swallowed the words back several times.

Du Manlin sat down next to Kang Jiawei, hugged his head and rubbed gently: "I know what you want to say?" But you can't make up your mind, so you can't open your mouth. ”

Kang Jiawei looked puzzled: "You can't know what I'm going to say." ”

"Either I'll tell you, but I have one condition, you have to agree, otherwise I won't say it."

Kang Jiawei nodded.

Du Manlin said: "After such words have come out of my mouth, they can never be repeated in your mouth. On this condition, do you agree? ”

Kang Jiawei still nodded.

Du Manlin continued: "You praise me for being beautiful, just to tell me, let's divorce, marry a good man while you are young and beautiful, and don't spoil yourself." She suddenly raised her voice, "Kang Jiawei, listen to me, don't want to drive me away from you, let alone drive me out of the Kang family." No matter what you do, even if you really can't stand up in the end and become a waste, I will never give up, stick to it for love, and accompany you to the end of your life. ”

Kang Jiawei looked at her in surprise. He really couldn't believe that what she said was what he had hesitated for a long time and wanted to say but didn't dare to say.

Kang Jiawei thought to herself, for a woman who values feelings so much, has brains and a sense of responsibility, she really shouldn't let her spend her years around a waste man all day long. In this way, it is extremely unfair to her. However, with such a woman who values both affection and righteousness, it is not a simple matter for her to abandon her bad husband to find another happiness, or even impossible. Since this is the case, let her provoke the pillars of the two Kangdu families and continue to push the careers of the Kangdu two families forward.

Kang Jiawei thought as he slowly rested his head on Du Manlin's thin but firm shoulders.
