Aunt Niu's operation was successful, and she spent four hours in the observation room and was pushed back to the ward in the evening. But after all, she is old, Jiang Limei tilted her head to look at Aunt Niu's sleeping side face, and there was a haggard and languishing visible to the naked eye.

She was afraid that the light of the computer screen would affect Aunt Niu's sleep, so she had to cover her head in the quilt and use her mobile phone to process work messages. I don't know what time I fell asleep, it may be late at night, it may be early in the morning, in short, when the nurse came to deliver breakfast the next morning, Jiang Limei hadn't woken up yet.

It was Aunt Niu who woke her up.

"Little ginger, little ginger, the sun is getting tall!" Aunt Niu sat in a wheelchair with one leg on her legs, and reached out to stroke Jiang Limei's long hair scattered outside the quilt: "Good boy, why do you always like to sleep under the quilt, when you get up, breakfast is cold." ”

His hair was stroked, and he was called a good child.

Jiang Limei was a little sleepy in half a dream, as if she had returned to the days when she was in high school and was called to get up by her mother every morning. She always lies in bed, and she doesn't like to get out of the bed when it's cold, so she carries milk and bread almost every day and runs into the classroom in time for the bell of morning self-study.

She struggled to open her eyes and was stunned in the bed for a moment before she came back to her senses.

There are no soft milk blankets, no low-pitched air conditioners, no hazy sheer curtains. Only the pale sheets and quilt covers of the hospital, faintly soaked in the smell of disinfectant water, and the sun was dazzling.

Jiang Limei half-squinted her eyes and sat up with difficulty.

"Little ginger, wash up, and give you something good to eat after washing." Aunt Niu patted a red plastic bag on the cabinet, bulging.

"Did the family send something?" Jiang Limei's voice was a little hoarse.

"Yes, the old man sent it to me, he has never cooked in his life, I have been hospitalized for a few days, but he can bear it, and he is still studying the recipe at home."

A new short-haired aunt came into the bed opposite Aunt Niu, who was about the same age as Aunt Niu, and she also stretched her neck at this time:

"What's the best to eat?"

......

Jiang Limei came out of the bathroom after washing, and heard that the ward was very lively.

A room full of elderly people, the chatterbox can't be contained as soon as it is opened, the old man, the supermarket discounts, the son's examination to marry his daughter-in-law, the grandson's kindergarten diet......

Jiang Limei just washed her face with cold water, she was much sober, her long hair was loose, and the broken hair on both sides was wet and sticking to her cheeks, but her sharp and thin chin was thin, and she looked weak.

"Little Jiang, your face is not very good."

Jiang Limei kicked the fluffy cotton slippers and returned to the bed to sit down: "I don't know why, maybe I didn't sleep." ”

"Come on, have a bit."

Aunt Niu handed over a transparent glass sealed jar, full of white cashew nuts, and the skin was coated with a thin layer of frosting. There are also a few lunch boxes on the cabinet, which are tomato vinegar fish, peeled walnut kernels, and brown sugar cake cut into small pieces.

Jiang Limei picked up a icing cashew nut and threw it into her mouth and chewed it, sweet and fragrant.

"Your wife's skills are really good."

"Old man, pay attention to this, sick people should eat sweet, especially brown sugar cake, eat it quickly." Aunt Niu smiled and wiped the lid of the lunch box very preciously: "Actually, it's not allowed, it's not science." ”

Jiang Limei also smiled: "My hometown has a similar saying, but it is to eat canned yellow peaches." Sweets will make you feel good, but Auntie, you have to pay attention to your blood sugar. ”

Aunt Niu nodded: "Where are you from, Xiao Jiang?" ”

"A small city, called Ancheng, you definitely don't know."

Aunt Niu thought about it, as if she had heard it somewhere, and asked Jiang Limei with a smile: "It's almost the New Year, do you want to go home for the New Year?" ”

"Home?" Jiang Limei winked playfully: "No return." ”

"Then Mom and Dad don't want you?"

“...... Don't want to, they have their lives. Jiang Limei smiled as usual, changed the topic with a relaxed face, raised her eyebrows and gestured to the cashew nuts on the cabinet: "Aunt Niu, feed me some more, it's delicious." ”

"Come on, come on!"

Aunt Niu poured Jiang Limei a handful of iced cashew nuts, and then held the lunch box and divided it from bed to bed. Some people were embarrassed to take it, so they exchanged it for what they brought, and some even brought a large bag of freshly fried melon seeds to the hospital, and everyone had a handful in their hands.

When Ren Yu walked into the ward, he saw such a scene.

Jiang Limei sat on the bed with her knees crossed, her chin resting on her knees, tilting her head to listen to people chatting, holding a handful of melon seeds in her hand, interjecting from time to time, occasionally laughing, and shaking her shoulders with laughter.

She is educating her patients about what a miraculous thing canned yellow peaches in the Northeast are.

Ren Yu unconsciously smiled at the corner of his mouth.

"Little Doctor Ren," Aunt Niu beckoned Ren Yu: "Come, you can grab a handful too." ”

Ren Yu looked at the iced cashew nuts in the glass jar: "Thank you, I won't eat it." You should also eat less sweets, because your blood sugar is high in the results of your biochemical tests. ”

Aunt Niu smiled embarrassedly: "Well, Xiao Jiang also instructed me just now." ”

After Ren Yu told the postoperative precautions, she looked at Jiang Limei and found that she had thrown away the melon seed skin in her hand, dusted off the crumbs in her palm, sat back on the bed and turned on the computer, staring at the mobile phone and computer screen at the same time, she was dealing with work.

He retracted his gaze and said lightly to Aunt Niu: "If the bone is injured, the most important thing is to raise and practice, but remember not to work too hard and affect recovery." ”

Jiang Limei actually heard it.

But there is no time to take care of it.

Wu Yusi sent her a few resumes, a fresh graduate who came to apply for a designer, and asked Jiang Limei if she wanted to interview online remotely.

Jiang Limei glanced at it and felt that it was not bad, and she still had to look at the portfolio. She was sorry for piling up all the work to Wu Yusi during this time, but she felt that their relationship didn't need to be fake.

She half-leaned on the pillow, voiced in a hoarse voice, and lazily coquettish: "Thank you for your hard work, my baby, I will kiss and hug you when I meet." ”

Wu Yusi replied in seconds: You die far away!

Jiang Limei held her mobile phone and smiled, put down her mobile phone and looked up, just as she met Ren Yu's dark gaze.

The moment they met their eyes, it was like a wave hitting a reef, and Ren Yu was defeated again, he looked away: "Although your arm is swollen, don't be too tired." ”

There was an emotion in the tone that Jiang Limei couldn't read, similar to loneliness.

"Okay, Doctor." She responded obediently, put down her mobile phone, and made an obedient appearance: "May I ask Dr. Ren, when will I have surgery?" It's time for me to line up. ”

Ren Yu helped his glasses: "You...... You have an external injury, and the surgery can only be operated on after the trauma is healed, otherwise it will be more troublesome if you get infected. ”

"I think it's going to be okay......"

The abrasion on her arm was on the back of her elbow, and Jiang Limei couldn't see it, so she had to ask Ren Yu:

"Doctor Ren, can you help me take a look?"

Ren Yu took two steps forward, pulled Jiang Limei's sleeves up, almost subconsciously, his fingertips touched Jiang Limei's arm, and retracted as if electrocuted.

The white hospital gown is actually not very comfortable against the skin, and it is even more uncomfortable when it rubs against the injury, Jiang Limei frowned:

"How's it coming? Doctor Ren? ”

"Let's talk about it in the afternoon." Ren Yu didn't look at Jiang Limei's face again, and walked out of the ward quickly.

Jiang Limei felt inexplicable, but she didn't care.

She thought that Ren Yu's "discuss" was just a rhetoric to deal with, but she didn't expect that when she went to the corridor after dinner, Ren Yu was waiting for him at the nurse's station.

He stood quietly, as if he knew she would come, without the anxiety of waiting for anyone. The white coat is a black undershirt and thin-framed glasses, and he is clean from head to toe, not in a hurry or impatient.

In Jiang Limei's surprised expression, he smiled implicitly, or he didn't smile, and the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked: "Your surgery is scheduled for the first station the morning after tomorrow, Director Sun and I will do it together, is it okay?" ”

What's not to be with that? Do patients have a voice?

Jiang Limei suddenly thought about teasing Ren Yu: "Okay, Doctor Ren, are you in charge of the surgery?" ”

"No, Director Sun is in charge, and I will assist." Ren Yu really answered her seriously: "I ...... For the time being, there is no qualification for surgical surgery. ”

Jiang Limei hurriedly waved her hand: "It's okay, it's okay, as long as you are in the operating room, I will feel at ease." ”

Her voice is slightly hoarse, and she is always lazy and indifferent, but when she talks to people, she is used to staring into people's eyes, as if she needs to rely on them very much.

Ren Yu couldn't escape Jiang Limei's eyes, her Adam's apple rolled slightly, she stumbled and said a good word, and then bent down to pick it up: "Here's this, give it to you." ”

Jiang Limei noticed that Ren Yu had been holding a paper bag at her feet.

He was waiting for her and delivering her something.

"What's this?" Jiang Limei opened the paper bag and looked inside, and the object was a sealed box.

“...... Chestnuts, mailed from Anseong, I have boiled them in simple water, you can taste them. ”

In fact, he stayed up late the first night, carefully picking out chestnuts from a large cardboard box, the biggest, the fullest, all here.

Anseong chestnuts are famous, depending on the soil and climate, the chestnuts are soft and sweet like honey, no extra cooking is required, a little salt and water are added to it, and it is delicious when cooked. Jiang Limei hasn't eaten it for many years, and she once patronized an online store that says "Anseong chestnuts", but unfortunately it's not the same variety at all.

She misses the taste.

"It's great," Jiang Limei took out the lunch box, hugged it into her arms very preciously, smiled and bent her eyes and thanked her: "Thank you, Doctor Ren, I haven't eaten it for a long time." ”

Just a box of chestnuts, she can also act like a treasure, and she is extremely sincere.

"What about this......

Jiang Limei reached for the paper bag again.

“...... Canned yellow peaches. ”

Ren Yu said softly.

It is the canned yellow peach that Jiang Limei highly recommended when chatting with Aunt Niu in the morning, and it is the delicacy that every Northeast child wants to eat the most when he is sick.

Jiang Limei was simply dumbfounded.

She saw the faint but bright look in Ren Yu's eyes.

At this moment, her mood seems to be a little too touched, but she has a paper bag hanging from her wrist, holding a cold and chubby canned yellow peach, and her heart is like a dough with water, and she suddenly softens.

"Dr. Ren is really ...... Benevolence of the doctor? She quipped: "Thank you Dr. Ren, you can treat the disease and the heart, when will canned yellow peaches be included in the medical insurance?" ”

"Well, I'll propose." He even joked with her.

Jiang Limei laughed, put the canned food back in the paper bag, and hugged it into her arms together: "There is also a reluctant request, can I borrow flowers to offer Buddha?" Ask the people in the ward to taste our chestnuts in Anseong, after all, I ate a lot of snacks from Aunt Niu in the morning. ”

Ren Yu also smiled: "Yes." ”

"Yay!"

Jiang Limei smiled skillfully, blinked, took a step forward, and tiptoed slightly in Ren Yu's ear: "But I will eat the canned yellow peaches by myself, secretly!" ”

She didn't realize that her warm breath was all sprinkled on Ren Yu's neck, and it turned red.

Ren Yu opened his mouth, his throat dry.

Nothing was said.
