054: Paper can't hold the fire
Ji Shengli has been in a bad mood recently because of some troubles in the district, which was blocked on the road for most of the day on the way home from work, and his wife was not around on a business trip.
After being busy, the middle-aged man's mood can be imagined.
Do you all think I'm as happy as you think?
"Yang Yang, Ozawa."
"I'm back, hey, it's too congested on the road."
"You two must be hungry, how about I order some quick-frozen dumplings for the two of you?"
Lao Ji ran to the bathroom after returning home.
Ji Yangyang noticed the movement and walked out of the room.
"Dad, you don't have to be busy."
"I've eaten it with my cousin."
Ji Shengli came out of the bathroom after washing his hands and nodded silently.
During this time, there was almost no room for him to exert himself at home.
"That Yang Yang, I saw your exam results this time on the way home, and your performance is good, but there is still a gap between you and the undergraduate line."
"You work hard, you know?"
Ji Yangyang nodded silently, and then returned to his room.
Lao Ji still wanted to say something, and found that his son in front of him was gone, his expression was a little unhappy, and at this time, he just glanced at the bucket of instant noodles on the dining table, walked to check and found that it was already more than half.
Ji Shengli immediately called his son out again.
Ji Yangyang came out again, frowned and asked, "Dad, what's wrong?" ”
"Yang Yang, why don't you finish this instant noodle?"
He turned his head to look.
It was the bucket of noodles that my cousin left before leaving.
"Dad, it's not..."
Seeing this kind of waste, District Chief Ji couldn't help but burn anger in his heart.
"Aren't you wasting food? Did you know that when Dad was in school, he didn't have enough to eat at every meal? You said you..."
"The way you are now is what your uncle is used to."
"This Liu Zheng, he..."
As soon as Ji Yangyang heard his father talk about his uncle, he suddenly lost the desire to talk to his father: "I was raised by my uncle, you are not qualified to talk about them?" What's wrong with me not eating this bucket of noodles? ”
"District Chief Ji, you are the district chief outside, and you will be the district chief when you return home, right?"
Ji Shengli looked at his son in front of him and said in a deep voice: "Do you say it again?" ”
Ji Yangyang was not afraid at all: "I said I don't eat, do you have any questions?" ”
At this time, Lao Ji remembered his wife's entrustment to him before leaving, and suppressed the anger in his heart.
But then Ji Yangyang's words were like the last straw on the camel's body, making his anger break through the critical value.
"District Chief Ji, just be your parents' official outside."
"You don't need to take care of this home."
Syllable!
Ji Shengli didn't hold back and gave his son a slap.
Ji Yangyang looked at his father in front of him with a cold expression, and a mocking smile rose at the corner of his mouth.
He didn't say a word and walked straight out the door.
The living room was instantly silent, and the pin drop could be heard.
Ji Shengli looked at his right hand at this moment, and a sense of regret welled up in his heart.
I saw him close his eyes and sigh, and then slammed it into his face.
After a long time, the phone was called.
"Hey, Liu Jing."
"I just... slapped Yang Yang. ”
......
A few minutes later, when Lu Ze returned home, all he saw was a silent brother-in-law sitting on the sofa.
He was just about to ask what was going on, when he found that the phone suddenly rang, and the caller ID was 'Auntie'.
After chatting with his aunt for a while, he realized what had just happened, and it was no wonder that he couldn't see Ji Yangyang at home.
"Brother-in-law."
"The bucket of noodles is actually mine."
"And."
"My aunt is sick and hospitalized."
Lao Ji suddenly raised his head.
His eyes were full of shock.
......
Lu Ze directly asked his uncle Liu Zheng to check the consumption records of Ji Yangyang's credit card, Liu Zheng gave one of his two nephews a credit card when he first started school, but he rarely used it at ordinary times.
Ji Yangyang will definitely use this card when he goes out this big night.
"Grand Kempinski Hotel."
Lu Ze always felt that the name of this hotel seemed similar, he hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Uncle, I told my sister-in-law about my aunt's illness, and he is rushing to the hospital now." ”
Although Liu Jing repeatedly told her before, this matter must be hidden from Ji Shengli.
But Lu Ze still didn't want his aunt to wait silently for the arrival of the operation in the hospital alone.
The fundamental reason for Yang Yang's quarrel with Lao Ji today is also because of the dissatisfaction he has with his father, and no one on the pillow knows that his wife has cancer.
After Liu Zheng on the other end of the phone heard it, he was silent for a moment: "I should tell my brother-in-law, he should be by my sister's side at this time." ”
"You're doing a good job, Ozawa."
After hanging up the phone, Lu Ze took a taxi to the Grand Kempinski Hotel.
......
"Old Season."
"Why are you here?"
Liu Jing in the ward didn't expect Ji Shengli to appear in front of her, she hurriedly tidied up her somewhat messy hair, and watched her lover slowly sit in front of her hospital bed, with a complicated meaning in her eyes.
"When?"
After Ji Shengli came in, he didn't ask his wife why he was hiding it.
Instead, he directly inquired about Liu Jing's condition.
Liu Jing's eyes drooped: "I found out that I had a problem with my breast last month, and I was hospitalized after being diagnosed this week." ”
Ji Shengli held his wife's somewhat cold hand tightly, as if he wanted to cover it warm: "If Ozawa hadn't told me, how long would you want to hide it from me?" Am I not your husband anymore? Yes? ”
When he said these words, Lao Ji's eyes couldn't help but turn red.
He only now knew why Yang Yang's kid's attitude towards himself had suddenly become so bad in the past few days.
Even said something like that in front of his father today...
Looking at his wife in front of him, he understood.
"Old Season."
"I should have told you I'm sorry."
"I shouldn't have hidden such a big thing from you, I'm sorry."
Liu Jing showed a smile on her face, but comforted the people around her: "There is a great possibility of curing early breast cancer, I don't want you to worry about it, and suffer more." ”
"Besides, your work is so special, and now you're at a juncture..."
Ji Shengli looked at the somewhat pale face of his wife next to him and stroked it gently.
Now he feels that a day's work is nothing, and even his ideals are not a big deal.
At this time, he really realized how much he owed to Liu Jing, to the children, and to the family.
Self-blame, guilt...
In an instant, I came to my mind.
"Liu Jing, it's my problem."
"You said the two of us ate and lived together, but I didn't even know you were sick."
"I even had to have a child to tell me that I even slapped Yang Yang."
"I'm such a failed husband and father."
Liu Jing whispered: "Yang Yang is a sensible child, Xiao Ze has gone to accompany him now, don't worry." ”
"But for this matter, you owe the child an apology."
Ji Shengli sighed slightly.
"Yes."
