In the silent place

Three and ten minutes passed in the blink of an eye.Bai Yutang was driving the car, his face was gloomy like the stormy sky outside the window.There was a rumbling sound, fine raindrops fell from the sky, and fell on the car window with a tick-tick sound, and the air was so oppressive that it made people sad.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Jiang Ping sighed slightly as he watched the pedestrians running quickly outside the window.Zhan Zhao's current situation is worrying when he doesn't see him, but even more so when he sees him.I just took Lao Wu there like this, I don't know if it is right or wrong.

"Old five..." Jiang Ping wanted to persuade him, but he didn't know how to say it.After a pause, he said in a deep voice, "Don't worry too much, Zhan Zhao is already much better than when we went to see him last time, maybe he will be transferred out of the ICU after a while."

"En." Bai Yutang responded softly, feeling sour in his heart.I remembered that before leaving the ward, Zhan Zhao was lying on the bed, smiling and saying goodbye to the fourth brother softly. At that time, he really wanted to rush over to give him a hug, even just for a moment, but he had to turn around in the next moment, and fled away like the wind. There.He was afraid that if he didn't leave, he would no longer be able to control himself.For him, this kind of patience is a kind of torture, and he doesn't want to continue for a moment!Sometimes thinking about it, he really hates Zhan Zhao.Hate his persistence, hate his reason.He just wanted to be with him without gaps, as before, even if they couldn't solve all his problems, at least they could face them together.

The rain is getting heavier and heavier. Looking into the distance through the car window, the sky and the earth seem to be covered with a net, which is gray.The wipers kept swinging from side to side, making a creaking sound.

"Fourth brother, will you go back to the company later?"

Jiang Ping took out his mobile phone to look at it, and said: "It's late, I won't go back." He turned his head and looked at Bai Yutang. "Is something wrong?"

"I want to go to the book bar to have a look."

"Okay. Anyway, I have nothing to do, let's go together. By the way, before you went to film in other places, the book club hadn't opened yet, right?"

"En." Speaking of which, I have only been to the bookstore once, and it was when Zhan Zhao just sold the store.He still remembered that it was a bit cold that night, and he had a lot of nosebleeds on the way back, and he kept covering his nose with a scarf and laughing at himself.

Seeing that he was preoccupied, Jiang Ping didn't want to say more, and didn't continue the chat.It was almost five o'clock in the afternoon when the two arrived at their destination.

Probably because of the weather, there were not many people in the book bar, only a few customers sat in twos and threes.As soon as he walked in, Bai Yutang's gaze was attracted.The decoration pattern and atmosphere in the store are very similar to that person's style, with a sense of freshness and elegance in the simplicity, and a kind of determination in the quiet.

Li Shangjuan was sitting in front of the drink counter with her chin resting on her hands, feeling a little bored when she suddenly saw Jiang Ping and Bai Yutang walking in, smiling and beckoning to them.Seeing that Bai Yutang was concentrating on looking at the furnishings and books in the store, Jiang Ping turned and left him, and walked towards Li Shangjuan.

"Why are you two here?"

"I just went to the hospital to see Zhan Zhao, and the fifth child said he wanted to come here to have a look, so I followed along."

"Is Zhan Zhao better?" Li Shangjuan asked with concern.

Jiang Ping sighed slightly, and said, "It's better than before, but the person is still very weak."

Li Shangjuan felt sad when she heard that.Since Zhan Zhao was hospitalized, his mood when he came to the book club every day became gloomy and heavy.She thought about it, turned her head to look at Jiang Ping, rolled her eyes and said: "Jiang Ping, you are still going around in circles with me. What Xin Shao, Kang Xiu's, you really have it. Tell me the truth, the two people you mentioned Is it your fifth brother and Xiao Zhan?"

A woman's sixth sense is really... Jiang Ping tilted his head, touched his forehead and said, "You said this yourself, I never said that."

While the two were talking, Bai Yutang came over, smiled and nodded at Li Shangjuan, then raised his finger to the carved wall behind the drink counter and asked, "Fourth brother, is the partition here killed?"

"No, it's a secret door." Jiang Ping said, turning his head to ask Li Shangjuan. "Is the second floor open?"

"It's open. Aunt Liu didn't lock it."

"I'll take him up to have a look."

"Ah."

Jiang Ping said, walked to the partition wall and gently pushed in, and a wooden door opened.It turns out that the wooden door is made of the same paint color and carvings as the wall, and even the handle has been ingeniously designed. If you don't look carefully, you can't see the secret door at all.

"Fourth brother, go talk to Sister Li, I'll just go up by myself."

Knowing that he wanted to be alone, Jiang Ping nodded and turned to leave.

After closing the secret door, Bai Yutang walked a few steps in, looked up at the wooden stairs on the left, turned a corner, and walked up slowly.The door to the small second floor was ajar, and opened with a light push.He stood in front of the door and watched quietly for a while, then slowly walked to the wooden grille window and stood still.He remembered that Zhan Zhao was standing here that night, and he leaned over to make fun of him, and ended up getting punched by him.He smiled softly, looking at the pattering rain outside the window, thinking about him and his past bit by bit, as if something was blocked in his heart, heavy, painful and astringent.

It has been cloudy and rainy for several days, and the weather gradually cleared up until the weekend.It was June, just after ten o'clock in the morning, and the heat of the sun was already jaw-droppingly fierce.Bai Yutang drove the car and arrived at the home of his elder brother Lu Fang as scheduled.

Sitting on the sofa, Bai Yutang smiled and asked, "Where's the little one?" Lu Zhen was already attached to him when he came on weekdays, but today he was not used to seeing the little follower.

"With him here, we don't want to do anything serious. I asked your elder brother to take him to his grandparents." Min Soo-soo handed him a can of drink and sat down beside him. "I said what did you think of? Why do you suddenly want to learn injections?"

Bai Yutang took a sip of his drink, leaned back on the sofa, turned his head to look at his sister-in-law, half joking and half serious, "I'm going to be a private nurse."

"Just you?" Min Soo Soo's eyes widened, and he suddenly smiled. "Don't drive people crazy." He was a little puzzled as he spoke, frowning slightly and asked worriedly, "Are you sick? Do you need to give yourself an injection?"

"Do you think I look like this?"

Min Soo-soo took a closer look at him, his complexion and energy were great, and he really didn't look like he was sick.Bai Yutang saw her watching him pondering over and over again, grinned, and said, "Sister-in-law, don't be bored. Actually, I thought about it when I was filming "Worthy". Do learn more in my line of work." Nothing ever goes wrong."

"That's true." Min Soo-soo said, sighed softly, and suddenly remembered the days when she was a nurse.

"Sister-in-law, I heard from my elder brother that you used to win the provincial nursing skills competition, why did you change your career later?"

"Life, there are too many unpredictable things, I will tell you later when I have time." Min Xiuxiu stood up while speaking, took out a teaching CD from the bookcase and put it into the DVD player.While watching, Bai Yutang listened to his sister-in-law's explanation. After reading one disk, he already had a preliminary understanding of some basic precautions and essentials for injections.

In the actual operation that followed, Bai Yutang's head grew bigger when he saw the needle.He has always been a healthy baby. From birth to now, the number of times he went to the hospital for injections can be counted on one's fingers.It's a bit ridiculous to say, he is not afraid of fists, knives and guns, but when he sees this slender needle, he can't help but feel frightened.

Seeing the needle approaching his arm, Bai Yutang felt his scalp go numb, and the hairs all over his body stood on end. "Sister-in-law, take it easy."

"How old are you, are you still afraid of injections?" Min Xiuxiu glanced at him, and deliberately teased: "You still don't believe in your sister-in-law's ability."

"How dare I."

"If you don't dare, just turn your head over to me, and watch carefully!"

Bai Yutang was slightly embarrassed by what she said, and slowly turned his head away.Although the needle didn't feel any pain at all, he still grinned involuntarily.

"Have you seen the meeting?"

"almost."

"Come on, give me a shot."

"Shall I call you?" Bai Yutang asked with his eyes wide open.

"Scared?" Min Soo-soo couldn't help laughing when he saw his appearance. "I'll take care of you, don't worry."

Of the two of them, one taught seriously and the other studied hard, so they didn't even bother to eat lunch.

"Go back and practice hard on yourself. If you 'self-mutilate' a lot, you will naturally master it." Min Xiuxiu said, stood up, went to the bedroom, took out a book and handed it to Bai Yutang. "The skills I told you just now are all marked in this book. Go back and take a good look."

"Okay, thank you sister-in-law." Bai Yutang took the book and flipped through it casually, and sure enough, the inside pages were highlighted with red pen. "Sister-in-law, you are so studious and progressive."

"Don't be silly, stretch out your arms, and I'll show you the painless injection again."

"No need..." Thinking of the needle, Bai Yutang involuntarily shrank his neck.

"If you want to learn, you have to learn better! Come on, arm."

Bai Yutang sighed helplessly, put the book aside, and raised his arms obediently.

In a blink of an eye, Zhan Huaiyi had been back for almost three weeks.Seeing his son again this time, he thought a lot.For most of his life, the important relatives in his life have almost passed away. Now that his son is so ill, he really doesn't want to be separated from him.A few days ago, the head office called again to urge him, hoping that he could go back to work quickly.Now is the time to make a decision.

"Old Jiang, I would like to ask you to be transferred back to China."

Jiang Yewan, who was sitting by the side, turned his head to look at him, then at the closed door of the intensive care unit on the right, sighed slightly, and said, "Have you talked to the child?"

"Not yet. Let's talk about it when there is news from the company."

"Well, that's fine too."

The two waited for a while, and the little nurse in charge of visiting took them into the intensive care unit.

Back home at night, Jiang Yewan told his wife about his brother-in-law's plans.When Liu Rong heard this, she frowned and said, "Then Xiao Zhao won't be able to live with us in the future?"

"Well, Huaiyi's company doesn't have a branch here. He is going to take Xiao Zhao back to the south."

"No!" Liu Rong said anxiously.

"Why can't it work? No matter how reluctant you are to part with Xiao Zhao, she is also someone's righteous child, and he has the final say."

Although my wife's words were straightforward, they stabbed Liu Rong's heart. "I can't bear it." As soon as the words came out, tears fell down.

In case Jiang Ye saw his wife was sad, he felt bad too.Leaning over to pat her on the back, he said, "It's not about taking him abroad this time. If we miss him, we can go and see him anytime."

"That's different." Liu Rong wiped away her tears and said, "You don't know about the righteous man, let's not talk about his bad temper, he can't even take care of himself, why should Xiao Zhao follow him? Don't worry. And his job, going out for meetings every three days, in the end it's not Xiao Zhao who is alone at home, no..."

"Don't worry about that, he said he will hire a nurse or something in the future."

"You are stupid!" Liu Rong said, turning her head and glaring at her wife bitterly. "Can the caregiver be cared by my own family? I don't worry about entrusting the child to some kind of caregiver." It's okay if my wife doesn't say anything, but she is even more worried after talking. "No, I have to talk to Huai Yi tomorrow."

"I told you not to worry about it, okay? Huai Yi is Xiao Zhao's father, so why not think about his son?"

"That's not what I mean. If you say you are straight-headed, you really can't turn corners at all!" Liu Rong was so angry that she stopped crying, stood up and spread the quilt, and said, "Don't worry about it, I will talk to Huaiyi later. "

Jiang Yewan saw his wife's stubborn temper, shook his head helplessly, and lay down on the bed in pajamas without saying a word.

On this day, Liu Rong and her son came to visit her nephew. Before the visit, the two first came to the doctor-patient communication room to consult about the condition.As soon as they entered the door, the little nurse raised her head and smiled at the two of them, "Let's find Dr. Chen, he's here, let's go in."

"Thank you." Liu Rong nodded and thanked her, and walked into the side door on the right with her son.

Dr. Chen is casual, but he is a serious and responsible doctor.Seeing the two people coming, he pointed to the chair opposite the table and said, "Please sit down, both of you."

Liu Rong smiled gently, nodded, and sat down on the chair. "Doctor Chen, how is my nephew doing these two days?"

"The condition has improved slightly, but this time the deep internal bleeding is more troublesome, and it is still accompanied by hematuria, and the condition is more serious." Dr. Chen said, took out Zhan Zhao's case from the cabinet next to him, and glanced at it , raised his head and said to Liu Rong: "As for the intermittent abdominal pain, there are many reasons for it, and it is suspected to be caused by gastric ulcer. In the future, we must pay more attention to diet."

"Okay, thank you. Then when will he be transferred out of the ICU ward?"

Dr. Chen couldn't help but smile slightly, this sentence must be indispensable every time the family member asks. "Wait a few more days to see the situation. If there is no major problem, you can transfer to the intensive care unit."

"Really?!" Surprised and delighted, Liu Rong raised her head excitedly and said to her son standing beside her, "Xiao Zhao is out of the ICU!"

Jiang Dong was also happy in his heart, and grinned at his old lady, showing a row of teeth.

"However, there are still many problems in his physical condition, and it will take a long time to recover. I hope you will be mentally prepared." Dr. Chen kindly reminded.

"Yes, I understand. Thank you very much for this time, Dr. Chen." Liu Rong said gratefully.Thinking that my nephew would be able to get out of that cold and lonely place soon, I couldn't help crying with joy.

At this level, my nephew finally survived.
