It was rare for Tan Man to hear Qiao Ning's slightly shy tone: "Then he didn't contact you?"

"Maybe I haven't had time to watch it yet. After all, we played all night last night, and I just woke up. I have to go back to the hospital to be on duty at night."

"Good luck then!"

Almost home, Tan Man thought about hanging up, but Qiao Ning said, "Aren't you trying to confess your love? The lawyer has made it so obvious, he must like you too."

"Don't talk nonsense, he was a gentleman, maybe he treats every girl like that."

"Just dawdle, let me tell you, happiness is determined by oneself, and opportunities are also grasped by oneself. For a job like a lawyer, someone covets it every minute. If you dawdle, you will be waiting for the blessing of the wedding. "

"..."

After getting off the bus stop, Tan Man received a reply from Gu Mochen, which was just one word: OK.

She took a deep breath, feeling sporadic disappointment at his somewhat indifferent reply.

On the way to the teacher's village, I couldn't help thinking about it. Qiao Ning's words disturbed my mind. Thinking about what Gu Mochen did these two days, it was really enough to arouse her reverie and make her feel that the other party also likes it. He touched his forehead in a strange way, and the sense of touch at that second was still vaguely there. Thinking about it for a while, the cells in his whole body could boil.

But after thinking about it, Dad was lying on the hospital bed, the flame of this little love was extinguished in an instant, and the pace under his feet couldn't help but quicken.

"Manman is back?" Wu Bo, the gatekeeper, grinned with the same enthusiasm as before.

This teacher's village is an old community. Many teachers with better conditions have moved out and bought new commercial houses. The vacant houses are either reserved for the elderly or sold. The next ones have become old neighbors, and they all have a good relationship. Wu Bo, the doorman, has also worked here for more than ten years, and he is naturally familiar with every household, old and young.

"Wu Bo, Happy New Year." Tan Man smiled politely.

"This girl is coming back, why didn't Lao Guo come down to buy vegetables all morning?"

Tan Man took a deep breath: "My dad is sick and is in the hospital."

"What's going on?" Wu Bo was a little anxious when he heard it, "It was fine yesterday, what's the matter?"

"Stroke, sent to the hospital last night, but the situation is still optimistic, and now they are stable."

"That's good. Hey, I'm old, and this disease comes like a mountain. Your father will have to rely on you to take care of him."

She nodded: "I'll go back first, and pack some things for my dad." After speaking, Tan Man didn't stop and walked home.

Since she went to college, she seldom entered her father's room. After graduation, she came back every time for a few days. He has been running the house by himself in these years, but he has not changed at all because of the loss of the mistress. Messy and deserted, photos of the family of three can be seen everywhere in Dad's room. Although some are yellowed and faded, they can't hide the happiness at all.

But when she saw the bottles of medicine by the bedside, Tan Man suddenly had a sore nose. After leaving home, she was always busy making herself grow, but she forgot that her father was getting old. I also feel that my concern for my father is enough.

Taking some change of clothes from the closet, and packing some daily necessities, Tan Man didn't dare to dawdle, and hurried back to the hospital.

In the first few days, it was difficult for both the patient and the family members. Fortunately, the nurse was called in time and helped a lot. Xu Qiong was in charge of cooking and cooking soup every day, and Tan Man was almost always in the hospital with her, shifting shifts with the nurse After one week, Tan Weiguo's condition has improved a lot. Coupled with his optimism and active cooperation with the doctor's treatment, his hands and feet can move slowly, and the distortion of his face has also recovered. Although it is still difficult to speak, he can only spit out one word at a time. , but compared to the beginning, when he couldn't even speak a word, he has improved a lot.

This afternoon, Tan Man pushed Tan Weiguo to bask in the sun downstairs in the inpatient department. Tan Man was sitting beside her, answering Qiao Ning's WeChat with her mobile phone.

Tan Weiguo coughed twice on purpose, and asked in a rather awkward manner, "Ma... friend, friend?"

Tan Man raised her head, and her father was looking straight at her.

"It's Qiao Ning, that little nurse." Tan Man explained, "She knows you're sick, and she's condolences to you."

Tan Weiguo thought for a while, and asked persistently: "Boyfriend, friend?"

Tan Man frowned, and gave him a mischievous look: "You don't know if I have a boyfriend or not?!"

"Nurse Yu, look, I see." Tan Weiguo spoke forcefully, trying to make his tone sound righteous.

"What?" Nurse Yu was the nurse in charge of her father's ward these days, but Tan Man didn't understand all of a sudden, "What did Nurse Yu see?"

"First, night, one, man, stay with me, night." Tan Weiguo swallowed, but saliva still overflowed from the corner of his mouth. Tan Man quickly wiped it off with a tissue.

During this period, Tan Weiguo's eyes never left Tan Man's face, he just wanted to see some clues from her face. Tan Man knew well at the moment that the man Nurse Yu saw was Gu Mochen. The person who was talking to him changed his tone when he saw him, but he didn't expect the nurse to gossip like this and tell the old man all about it.

Tan Man pretended to be stupid, calmly followed his words, and said with a smile: "Father, I really want to have a boyfriend to take care of you with me at this time, you don't know how heavy you are, when I turn over and wipe your back, But it took me a lot of effort, so, when you are well, you should exercise hard, don't play mahjong with Uncle Wang and the others all day long, do you hear me?"

Hearing this, Tan Weiguo shut up instantly, as if he had been caught in a death spot.

After retiring, there is nothing to do. A few retired old teachers in the community like to get together to play mahjong. They play mahjong for a whole day. Although Tan Man is not around, she knows about it. But every time he said one thing with his mouth, he did another thing with his hand.This time when I was hospitalized, the doctor also said that the stroke was more or less related to bad work and rest habits. He also specifically told the old comrades that playing mahjong is fine, but it must be moderate, take more walks to breathe fresh air, and do something healthier.

"Dad, you really have to pay attention. This time is a lesson. From now on, we can play mahjong for up to two hours." Tan Man took the opportunity to babble again, "You don't know, when you get a call from the hospital, scare me!" It's broken, what if you... What do you ask me to do?!"

Tan Weiguo raised his hand tremblingly, and patted the back of her hand resting on the armrest of the wheelchair, signaling her to be at ease: "I'm looking for you, okay, I'm just, don't worry, let's go."

When Tan Man heard this, she raised her face and scolded, "I won't let you say that you can't leave, you want to live a long life!"

Tan Weiguo smiled with his mouth crooked, his appearance was funny.

At this time, Tan Man's cell phone rang, and the caller was Gu Mochen, who hadn't contacted him for a few days. A surprise flashed in his eyes, and he looked down at the person in the wheelchair, and after explaining something, he quickly ran to the person next to him. Connected under the big tree.

"Manman?"

"Well, it's me." Hearing him call her name, she felt like a spring breeze.

"How is uncle?"

Tan Man frowned, and said with a smile: "It's much better. In another four or five days, I can be discharged from the hospital. The doctor said, just go home and recover slowly."

"That's good."

There was no sound on the other end of the phone, and Tan Man didn't know what to say, so she blinked and asked, "Lawyer Gu, did you have something to do when you called?"

The other party hesitated for a moment, and said slowly: "Do you still remember that day at Disney, on the way to watch the fireworks show, I bought a Mickey badge for Xiao Bei?"

She thought for a while: "Remember, the blue one."

"Well, Xiaobei and I forgot about it after we went back. When we went to the kindergarten this morning, he suddenly remembered and asked me to ask for it. I remember that he put it in his coat pocket at that time, but now he doesn't want it." I found it, I was thinking, maybe it fell on the sofa in your father's ward that night."

"But now I just push my father to bask in the sun in the hospital garden, and I will look for it when I get back, okay?"

Gu Mochen held the phone in his left hand, and played with the blue Mickey badge with the fingers of his right hand. He suddenly felt that he was a little ridiculous, and he did such a childish thing in order to find an excuse to call her.

"It's okay, don't worry, if you can't find it, I'll buy him another one."

"Oh." Tan Man sat down next to the stone bench under the tree and asked, "Is Xiao Bei good these days?"

"It's okay, just ask me every day, where are you, why don't you come to him."

Tan Man chuckled, and kicked a few fallen leaves on the ground with her toes.

Hearing his nice voice, I couldn't help chatting: "Then did you explain to him for me that you messed up his trip to Disney?"

"Say it, I also told him, you promise him, we will go again after the new year."

"He didn't remember me, did he?"

"Probably not." Gu Mochen smiled lowly, "However, before going to bed every day, he asks me when Manman will be back."

Tan Man didn't know that this was what the scheming uncle added. In fact, Xiaobei asked once.

She scratched her temples: "Well...Actually, I plan to go back in the next two days. There are still a lot of things to explain in school, but even if I go back, it will only be a day or two. After all, my dad is here. Can't leave for too long."

Gu Mochen's eyes lit up: "These two days?"

"Not sure yet."

"I'm going to Hong Kong on a business trip the morning after tomorrow, and I won't be back until a week later."

"Oh, then when I go back, you should be in Hong Kong."

Tan Man didn't understand the meaning of his words at first, she just responded foolishly, and didn't say anything else, Gu Mochen is naturally a calm person, he won't make the words so clear all at once, just When Tan Man returned to Shanghai at noon the next day and saw Gu Mochen who suddenly appeared in the community, he realized what he was hinting on the phone.

After chatting for a while, Tan Man looked at her father, and said helplessly, "Lawyer Gu, it's time, I have to push my father back to the ward, so I won't talk to you for now."
