In addition to going to work, Fang Wei has to go to the hospital once a day, accompany Xiaoli's father, chat with some common words, and look at the increasingly thin old man, his heart is not a taste.

One day, when he was about to get off work, he suddenly received a call from Xiaoli, telling him not to go to the hospital, to get off work a little earlier, and to come home directly, and his mother had something to say to him.

Fang Wei didn't think much about it, he greeted Manager Zhang, drove to Xiaoli's house, pushed the door in, and saw that the house was full of relatives, Xiaoli stood up and said; "Fang Wei, come and sit down, there are no outsiders here, Mom has something to say to us."

The mother glanced at her younger brother, meaning to let him speak first, Uncle Xiaoli said; "Fang Wei, Xiaoli, a few of us have discussed with your mother, the marriage between the two of you can't be delayed any longer, let's do it as soon as possible, do you have any opinions?"

Xiaoli didn't answer right away, and she didn't know what to say, she looked at Fang Wei and thought for a while before she spoke; "Uncle, we are not so anxious about getting married, can you wait for my dad to get well and be discharged from the hospital before talking about this, are you optimistic?"

Mother took over and said; "Xiaoli, you don't have to hide it from me, your father's condition has deteriorated, I already knew, but I don't want to, just say it in front of you, your marriage has to be done quickly, you can't wait any longer, your father doesn't have much time left, before he closes his eyes, he can see you get married and start a family, and he will be content."

Uncle said; "Your marriage is a great joy, can bring joy to our family, use joy to rush away the sickness, your father's illness, may get better, you two don't believe it, think this is superstition, uncle, I don't think so, this is passed down from generation to generation, maybe it will play a certain role, once God opens his eyes and sees you two getting married, he may be merciful and drive away the disease."

Xiaoli's relatives and friends, talking about it one after another, said that this method is good, she thinks that as long as it is beneficial to her father's condition, even if it does not play any role, she is willing to do it, so she said; "Uncle, you're right, I listen to you, whether superstitious or not, as long as I can make my father get better as soon as possible, let alone get married, just let me do it, no matter how ridiculous it is, I am willing, when to get married, it is up to you and my mother to decide."

The mother looked at her brother and said; "Her uncle, Xiaoli's choice of the wedding day is a little tight, it doesn't matter, I can't take care of these, you just hurry up and do it, don't pay attention to some details, just get by on the big picture, I want to emphasize one point, we must make the marriage vigorous, the bigger the scene, the better, all the relatives and friends who can be invited, including distant relatives who don't come to each other, also send them an invitation, people want to come, don't want to come, forget it, in a word, a relative should not be left behind, let the child's father, before leaving, One last hilarity. ”

After the mother finished speaking, she was already in tears, no one in the room spoke, Xiaoli's tears swirled in her eyes, she forced her grief and said; "Uncle, do you need to go to the hospital and discuss it with my dad?"

Uncle said; "Xiaoli, I discussed with your mother, don't tell your dad yet, and it's not too late to tell him when the date is set."

Fang Wei said; "Xiaoli, my uncle is right, it's better to hide it from my uncle first, wait for our wedding date to be determined, and then tell him, when my uncle suddenly hears the news of our marriage, he will be happy, maybe my uncle's illness will get better soon."

Xiaoli heard Fang Wei's explanation, felt a little better, and saw that her mother was still wiping her tears, she walked up to her and said; "Mom, the matter of our marriage is handled by me and my two sisters, you don't have to worry about it, you can take care of yourself, it's not easy, our relatives, my father's colleagues and friends, and old comrades-in-arms, it's good to have my eldest sister send invitations, and the rest of the things, such as; Book a hotel, buy things for marriage, have me and Fang Wei do it, there will be no big problems, you can rest assured. ”

Mother said; "If you let me take care of it, I can't take care of it. No matter how busy you are lately, you have to go to the hospital to see your father, don't make any mistakes, about your marriage, it's best not to disclose it to your father in advance, okay? ”

One afternoon, after Xiaoli was busy with work, she was about to go to the hospital when she received a call from her eldest sister and said; "Xiaoli, if you are okay in the unit, just go home quickly, I am in the hospital, I see our dad's complexion, much better than the previous two days, I am very happy, so, hurry up and call you to say, uncle is also here, our dad's condition is suddenly better, I am going to ask the doctor, if he agrees, I will complete the discharge procedures, and I will take our dad home immediately."

Xiaoli said excitedly; "Eldest sister, can Dad really be discharged from the hospital? If it's really much better, you'd better ask for the doctor's opinion. ”

The eldest sister said; "Dad's body feels much better, don't you believe the eldest sister? When did I lie to you? ”

Xiaoli said; "Eldest sister, I believe you, didn't you just tell a joke? Are you serious? I was about to leave work and rushed back immediately. ”

Xiaoli's uncle, before coming to the hospital, invited a gentleman to send the birth dates of his niece and Fang Wei over, and the husband pinched his fingers and counted for a long time before writing down the auspicious day of Xiaoli's marriage on a piece of paper and handing it to him.

Uncle Xiaoli immediately rushed to the hospital and told his brother-in-law about this happy event, and when he heard that his daughter's wedding date had been set, he immediately sat up.

After looking at his brother-in-law for a long time, he raised his legs and sat on the edge of the bed, and said; "Why didn't you tell me in advance about such a big happy event in our family? Don't discuss it with me. ”

The brother-in-law said with a smile; Brother-in-law, this is all my sister's idea, she doesn't let you tell you in advance, she wants to surprise you suddenly, maybe your illness will get better soon.

The nurse standing next to her hurriedly held Xiaoli's father and said; "Old chief, your daughter's marriage is a great event, but you can't be too excited, it's not good for your health."

Xiaoli's father looked at the nurse and said; "Little comrade, you go and find the doctor, I have something to say to him, leave me alone, you go quickly."

Sister Xiaoli said; "Uncle, you accompany my dad to talk for a while, and I will go to the doctor with the nurse and come back soon."

The doctor that Sister Xiaoli was looking for said; "Doctor, my dad has something to do with you, I guess he may want to say about being discharged from the hospital, just now, my uncle told him about my little sister's marriage. My dad sat up suddenly, what the hell is going on? Is it getting better? ”

The doctor sighed and said; "Eldest daughter, your father is ......, alas, I can't say any more, I'm afraid you won't be able to stand it."

When Sister Xiaoli saw the doctor, she slurred and said half a sentence, she felt that the situation was serious, and immediately became nervous, and hurriedly asked; "Doctor, if you have something to say, you can just say it, I can stand it, you don't have to take into account my feelings, you can say whatever you have to say."

The doctor looked at her, and you hesitated for a moment, and said; "Then I'll be blunt, your father's condition has deteriorated, there is no way to treat it, he has little time left, and there is no need to stay in the hospital any longer, it is better to let your father return home and stay with the family for one more day, count it as one day, you three daughters, accompany your father more, in case he leaves one day, you will not regret it." As for what you said, he sat up suddenly, and you feel that your father's condition has improved, in fact, it is not what you think at all, this is a reflection before death, say something that should not be said, your father ............, alas, I don't say that you understand. ”

The eldest sister's tears burst out of her eyes and said in a hoarse voice; "Doctor, I understand what you mean, then I'll take my dad home today, do you think it's okay?"

The doctor stood up and said helplessly; "That's the best, let's go see your father now, how to tell your father, I know in my heart."

The doctor walked into the ward, and Xiaoli's father said happily; "Doctor, you see that my health is much better, when can I be discharged from the hospital? I'll go home today, do you think it's okay? ”

The doctor stepped forward and took his hand and said; "Old secretary, how dare I not listen to the words of the leader, anyway, you are tired of staying in the hospital, you can be discharged today, with your eldest daughter with you, go home happily, I will go home again in two days."

Xiaoli hurried home, saw her father sitting on the sofa, excitedly did not come to her, and said; "Dad, you have finally been discharged from the hospital, the complexion on your face is much better, let the nanny cook a few more dishes you love to eat, and the whole family should celebrate well."

Xiaoli saw the eldest sister and walked into the kitchen sullenly, she felt that something was wrong, and quickly followed and asked; "Eldest sister, Dad came back from the hospital, why are you still unhappy? What the hell is going on? Can you tell me about it soon? ”

The eldest sister glanced outside, turned around and whispered; "Don't ask, after dinner, let's go to your room, and I'll tell you."

Xiaoli sisters happily accompanied their father, had a rare dinner, and then helped their father into the bedroom to settle down.

The eldest sister carried her mother behind her back, glanced at Xiaoli, and said; "Xiaoli, I want to go to your room and find a book to read, can you help me find it?"

Xiaoli understood what the eldest sister meant, got up and said; "Eldest sister, go to my room now, what book do you want to read? I'll help you find it. ”

The two sisters came to Xiaoli's room, and the eldest sister closed the door casually and said; "Xiaoli, this afternoon, my uncle came to the hospital, he told our father, your wedding day is set, our father was very happy, sat up all of a sudden, at that time I thought, our father's condition has improved, I quickly put the good news, call to tell you, later, I found the doctor, our father's situation, told the doctor, never expected, the doctor gave me, completely different answers."

Xiaoli hurriedly asked; "Eldest sister, you speak simply, don't be so verbose, go around and around, and confuse me."

The eldest sister looked at the younger sister and said; "Little sister, I don't want to beat around the bush, some words are not easy to say, I think it has been expressed clearly, you want me to be more detailed, then I'll say it directly, our dad's condition, suddenly improved, it's not a good sign, it may be a return to the light, the meaning of return to the light, do you understand?"

As soon as the eldest sister's words came out, Xiaoli immediately understood, she was stunned, she didn't speak for a long time, and tears fell from her long eyelashes, drop by drop.

The eldest sister also wept, and the sisters cried quietly, not daring to let their parents downstairs hear, and after a while, the eldest sister said; "Little sister, you also know our father's condition, why has he been able to survive until now? You know why? I'll tell you, our dad is waiting for you, get married and start a family, the whole family understands, but you are still writing on the good side. ”

Xiaoli lowered her head, didn't say a word, just sobbed, the eldest sister felt uncomfortable, thinking that she was the eldest of the sisters, and many things in the family had to show up, no matter how sad she was, she had to hold on, and she must not fall.

She hugged her little sister, wiped her tears, and murmured; "Little sister, things have come to this point, no matter how sad our sisters are, we can't solve the problem, we still have to cheer up, there are a lot of things at home, waiting for us to do, we can't always be immersed in pain, did you hear what I said clearly?"

The eldest sister said very rationally, but she couldn't release the grief in her heart, she couldn't control her tears, and a long series fell on Xiaoli's face, and the tears of the two sisters mixed together, down Xiaoli's cheeks, and flowed down coldly.
