Zhu Yuan went to the hospital again in the morning.

After taking a brain CT scan, Zhu Yuan sat on a chair in the aisle and rested for a while, and then received a call from Du Chunhua.

Zhu Kite was shocked.

She forgot to ask her leader for leave last night.

She pursed her lips and picked up the phone, "Sister Du...... I'm sorry, but I'm still a little unwell, so I came to the hospital in the morning and forgot to tell you......"

Du Chunhua's tone was obviously very dissatisfied, "I don't want to listen to your reasons, I already told you yesterday, today the leader wants to listen to the report of the hospital project, have you forgotten?" ”

Zhu Yuan said apologetically, "I sent the project summary to your mailbox yesterday, I ......"

"You mean let me report myself?" Du Chunhua was a little stern, "If you want me to do everything, why do you want to pay you a salary?" ”

Zhu Kite was speechless for a while.

It is indeed his fault that he forgot to ask for leave, and the matter has come to this point, Zhu Yuan can only come up with a solution instead of finding a reason.

"I'm sorry leader, today's mistake is my problem, and I won't be next time."

After being silent for a while, Du Chunhua said lukewarmly, "Today I will count you as a day of personal leave, and then the next time you will be absenteeism." ”

"Okay," Zhu Yuan said, "I remember, I'm sorry." ”

Du Chunhua also said, "Zhu Yuan, Chi's Group has always been committed to a rigorous work attitude, and you will cause the progress of our entire department to be resigned because of you. Take good care of your body and don't delay your work progress because of illness or other reasons. ”

Zhu Yuan lowered her eyes, and there was only one thing she could say: sorry.

After sitting for a while, Zhu Yuan took a taxi to the First Hospital, and she suddenly missed her father a little.

It seems that as long as she looks at her father, she will feel that she is a child who just needs to live every day happily and carefree.

She found a reason, and told Lin Lan that the unit was building a team today, and she took the opportunity to come out for a walk.

Unexpectedly, Lin Lan was not in the ward.

She looked around outside the corridor, and then went to the water room and the cafeteria, but she didn't see Lin Lan.

Zhu Yuan felt a little strange in her heart, and there happened to be a nurse who came to routinely check on Zhu Qinghua's condition, so Zhu Yuan asked.

"Do you know where my mom went?"

Normally, if nothing else, Lin Lan accompanies Zhu Qinghua in the ward, and occasionally goes out to send a WeChat message to Zhu Yuan first.

The nurse looked at the data on the machine and wrote something on the cardboard in her hand and said, "Aunt Lan should be in the surgical building now." ”

Zhu Yuan was stunned, "What is she going to surgery for?" ”

The nurse glanced at her, "You're her daughter?" Don't you know? ”

Zhu Yuan had a bad premonition in his heart, "What do you know?" ”

"Aunt Lan applied for a part-time cleaner at the hospital, and she would clean up every morning when the doctors and nurses were rounding."

Zhu Kite didn't react a little.

After the nurse left the ward, Zhu Yuan picked up her bag and walked out.

I looked for the third floor of the surgical building, and finally saw Lin Lan's figure at the corner of the fourth floor.

Dressed in a blue and white hospital cleaning gown, she bent down and cleaned up the garbage in the ward little by little.

Her body was so thin, and her back was so thin.

is obviously the mother he is most familiar with, but Zhu Yuan doesn't seem to remember what his mother used to be.

Once upon a time, my mother was a very happy little woman.

She didn't go out to work much, she likes to write calligraphy in her spare time, her father dotes on her very much, and a study room is reserved for her in the small house, which is full of calligraphy stickers and brushes of various sizes from famous artists.

Zhu Yuan had a very warm memory when he was a child, that is, Zhu Qinghua was grinding on the side, and Lin Lan was writing on the side.

Zhu Qinghua accidentally rubbed the ink on his clothes when grinding, Lin Lan would dislike him that the ink was difficult to wash, and Zhu Qinghua would smile and say, "It's okay, so the teachers in the school will think that I can also write calligraphy, how amazing." ”

Lin Lan laughed.

Lin Lan was not fat at that time, but her face was round, her eyes narrowed when she laughed, and the flesh on her cheeks was squeezed together.

Zhu Qinghua once whispered to her, "No matter how old your mother is, she laughs like a child, exactly like you." ”

But in just a few years.

Lin Lan hadn't written calligraphy for a long time, holding a hand with a brush on rice paper, wearing gloves and holding a broom.

She no longer had such a contented and happy smile on her face, and when she looked at Zhu Kite, even if she was smiling, her eyes were full of faint sadness.

Zhu Yuan often thinks that her father is lying on the hospital bed now, and the saddest thing is not herself.

It's her mom.

Because Mom's sky is falling.

Zhu Kite's eyes seemed to be crawling with insects, itching her vision blurred.

She leaned feebly against the wall beside her, looking at her mother weakly.

Just like many times before her, she was powerless to face her own life.

-

Lin Lan finished cleaning up the outpatient room in the corner, and when she turned around, she was stunned.

She saw the kite.

In the long corridor, mother and daughter looked at each other, and in the middle were hurried pedestrians coming and going, each worried and running for their families.

Everyone can only see their loved ones in their eyes.

Lin Lan suddenly panicked, she was at a loss like a child who had done something wrong, her hand holding the broom swayed, her eyes looked left and right in a panic, and then she looked at Zhu Yuan with some fear.

It's like Zhu Yuan didn't like to eat poached eggs when she was young, and she wanted to secretly dump poached eggs into the garbage while Lin Lan was not paying attention, and was caught by Lin Lan.

At that time, Lin Lan did not reproach Zhu Kite, but just told her not to waste food.

Twenty years have passed.

The current Zhu Kite did not blame his mother.

She just walked over gently and asked, "Mom, I'll help you." ”

Lin Lan hurriedly took a step back, "Don't don't, you stay away from me, the hospital has a lot of rubbish." ”

Just this sentence made Zhu Yuan endure tears for a long time, and suddenly burst out.

Without saying anything, she snatched the broom from Lin Lan's hand, took off her gloves, put them on her hands, lowered her eyes and began to clean.

The tears that fell to the ground were silently cleaned away by the broom, as if they had never appeared.

After cleaning the corridor, Zhu Yuan emptied all the garbage into the trash can in the staircase corridor.

When Lin Lan found her, she was sitting on the stairs, holding her calves in a daze.

Lin Lan rubbed her hands and sat beside her.

"Iris, I'm sorry."
