Baby

After the final exam, the first semester officially ends.Jiang Ye was eager to return home, and booked his return ticket early.

Just as he got on the train with the suitcase in hand, before Jiang Ye could sit down and make the bed, his cell phone rang suddenly.Jiang Ye looked at the screen and found that it was Tang Daihe.He snapped through the phone, "Mom."

Tang Daihe's voice was a little tired: "Are you on the road? Be careful."

"I just got in the car."

The last time I talked to Tang Daihe on the phone, Tang Daihe told Jiang Ye that Jiang Shaohui had gone to Tang Li's hometown to pick him up.It's been almost a week now and I don't know how it turned out.Thinking of this, Jiang Ye's heart tightened.

"Mom, did you find someone?"

Tang Daihe was silent for a while, and said, "No——Jiang Ye, I have something to tell you. Calm down and listen to me."

Jiang Ye was taken aback.

"Your father had an accident on the way home..." Tang Daihe took a deep breath, "It was raining heavily and the road was very slippery. When their car was going down the mountain... it knocked over the isolation belt and hit a piece of Dashanyan."

"He is not out of danger yet, we are now in the No. [-] Hospital in the provincial capital..."

As soon as he got off the train, Jiang Ye didn't have time to pack his luggage, so he immediately bought another bus ticket to the provincial capital.Sitting in the waiting room, Jiang Ye's hands and feet were cold, his head was blank, and his lips were trembling.

After two hours' drive, Jiang Ye got out of the station and took another taxi to the hospital.It was exactly two o'clock in the afternoon, most of the patients had rested, and the hospital was eerily quiet.

Jiang Ye tried hard to control his expression and walked calmly down the long corridor.There was the pungent smell of disinfectant in his nostrils, and in front of his eyes was the painful face lying on a makeshift hospital bed in the corridor.People here hover on the edge of life and death every day, life is so impermanent.Jiang Ye pushed the doorknob open, and he saw the once tall, stern and loving father lying motionless on the hospital bed, with tubes all over his body, his eyes closed, and his dejected and powerless appearance.

He felt a sense of despair rising in his heart. His father was the pillar of the family, and the sky of their family collapsed at this moment.

Jiang Ye's calmness collapsed in an instant after seeing the real scene. He tried hard to restrain the feeling of sore nose, but the tears still burst in an instant.

Tang Daihe stood up slowly, led Jiang Ye out, and gently closed the door of the ward.

In the corridor, Jiang Ye cried like a defenseless child.Tang Daihe put his arms around his son's shoulders, and his eyes became moist unconsciously.

"Mom, my dad, what's wrong with him..."

"He was in a car accident." Tang Daihe's face became haggard. "The lower body was pressed under the truck for more than ten hours, and the brain... the brain had a few bruises and suffered some damage. Now he is in a coma."

"How can this happen... how can this happen..."

Jiang Ye thought of his father in his memory, the respected captain of the police force, the hero of the small town, omnipotent.Jiang Ye was very naughty when he was a child, but he was only in awe of his father.Jiang Shaohui is a strict father, but under his tough appearance is a soft and loving heart.He never used rough hands with women and children, and even adopted the poor bereaved child in the case back home.Jiang Ye can still recall that when he was a child, he took Tang Li's hand and went to the police station to deliver meals to his father. He watched his father's busy figure through the window of the duty room, while Tang Li ate the food that his father's colleagues gave them. watermelon.

But now Jiang Shaohui's face is no longer red, his face has lost its color, gray eyelashes stick to the lower eyelids, relying on the nutrient solution injected into the body to maintain the heartbeat.Jiang Ye had never seen his father like this. Whenever Jiang Ye saw his father, his back was always straight, his eyes were firm, and his words were sonorous.

A high-ranking people's policeman, a virtuous housewife wife, and a top student admitted to a prestigious school—their family was originally a well-off middle-class family that everyone envied in the small town, but fate made a very expensive joke at this time.It's a price that ruins their lives, and it will take them many, many years to pay back.

One morning a week later, Jiang Shaohui opened his eyes, woke up from a coma, and was out of danger.But his nervous system was severely damaged, his lower limbs were almost paralyzed in bed, he often had headaches and retching, and he couldn't take care of himself.In order to take care of Jiang Shaohui, Tang Daihe temporarily rented a house near the hospital for a month, and the goat also lived there.In the following time, Jiang Ye and Tang Daihe took turns guarding Jiang Shaohui's bedside.

The oxygen and infusion tubes were removed, Jiang Shaohui would sometimes lie on the bed and stare out the window in a daze for a whole day.Every time Jiang Ye saw this scene, he would feel like a knife was piercing his heart.Dad is such a person with strong self-esteem, he must be the most unable to accept this result.

Tang Daihe went back to the rented house to cook and make soup, and Jiang Ye stayed by Jiang Shaohui's bedside.After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Shaohui turned his head, his eyes flickering suddenly.

Jiang Ye understood, and immediately got up and rang the bell to ask the nurse to come and change the urine bag.Before the nurse came, Jiang Shaohui glanced at Jiang Ye. He had been staying up all night watching the bed during this time, and his face was abnormally tired.Jiang Shaohui's face darkened, and he suddenly waved Jiang Ye's hand away and shouted manically, "I'm going to the bathroom!"

Jiang Ye looked around anxiously: "Dad, wait a minute, the nurse will be here soon!"

"I'm going to the bathroom!!"

When Jiang Ye turned around, Jiang Shaohui had already cut off the catheter with a wave of scissors with a pale face.

"Dad!" Jiang Ye was extremely shocked, "What are you doing!"

"Go to the bathroom."

Jiang Shaohui's voice was hoarse, and he turned sideways with difficulty to reach the handle of the bed.The relatives of the patients in the same room next to me couldn't stand it any longer, and came forward to help.Jiang Ye was scared out of his wits, and hurried to push the wheelchair: "Dad, I'll help you!"

"Go away! You are decades too early!"

Jiang Shaohui stubbornly drove away Jiang Ye and others who wanted to help.Jiang Ye's eyes became hot as he watched Jiang Shaohui start to grab the railing of the bed and try to move himself up regardless of him.Jiang Ye knew that Jiang Shaohui didn't want to admit that he couldn't take care of himself, but he couldn't bear to see his father showing such an unbearable appearance in front of everyone.

Jiang Ye took a step forward and carefully lifted the quilt, then bent down to help him pick up the shoes, and softly comforted him: "Dad, don't worry... I'll change your shoes first... The nurse will be here soon, Dad. "

Jiang Shaohui suddenly pulled up the shoe angrily, and threw it out of the window forcefully.Under the astonishment on Jiang Ye's face, he yelled hysterically: "Get out! Get out!"

Jiang Ye was pushed away violently, and Jiang Shaohui grabbed the handle of the bed and was about to move down impulsively.But his lower body didn't seem to exist anymore, no matter how hard his hands were, he didn't feel the slightest.Jiang Shaohui gritted his teeth, but slid off the bed, knocking over a cabinet of medicines and needles.

All the patients around screamed, and Jiang Shaohui fell into a mess without moving.There was a lot of noise from people talking behind him, and Jiang Ye keenly noticed that the crotch of Jiang Shaohui's lower body was slowly being dyed a very clear dark color by the yellow liquid flowing out of the catheter...

Jiang Ye's heart tightened, and he quickly pulled out the quilt to cover Jiang Shaohui, hugged him and helped him up from the ground.This time, Jiang Shaohui lay quietly on the bed, closed his eyes and stopped talking. A painful feeling spread across Jiang Ye's chest.

The nurse was reminded and rushed to the ward to replace Jiang Shaohui with a new catheter and bed sheets.Jiang Ye went to the bathroom in the ward alone, and when he came out, the corners of his eyes were stained red.

Jiang Ye sat beside Jiang Shaohui's bed, and the conversation around him gradually decreased.The ward was so quiet that one wanted to escape.

"...This is retribution," Jiang Ye suddenly heard Jiang Shaohui's murmur as thin as a mosquito, which echoed above the two of them for a long time, making him breathless, "I had many chances to catch the prisoner, but I didn't I missed it... Tang Li's parents were killed, and my retribution also came..."

Jiang Ye finally couldn't bear it and ran away.He came to the corridor, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, found out Tang Li's mobile phone number, and flipped through their previous conversations one by one.Finally, tears blurred my eyes and blurred the words on the phone.Jiang Ye leaned his face against the phone screen, recalling his younger brother's familiar voice and appearance.

Tang Li, where are you?

Something happened at home, come back quickly.

The impact of Jiang Shaohui's accident is continuous.The mainstay fell, and Tang Daihe gave Jiang Shaohui a medical retreat.Without the main income, it is far from enough to rely on Jiang Shaohui's meager pension and pension for living expenses.In order to perform surgery on Jiang Shaohui, the family had unknowingly spent almost all their savings.Large and small surgery fees, as well as follow-up medical expenses, hospitalization expenses...every item is not a small number.No matter how wealthy the family is, they can't afford a single illness.

After being hospitalized for half a year, Jiang Shaohui's condition finally improved somewhat, but the paralysis of his lower limbs and various sequelae made his life still very inconvenient.Tang Daihe hopes that her husband can go to a better hospital for treatment, but their family can no longer afford the follow-up expensive expenses.

Helpless, Tang Daihe had no choice but to transfer to another hospital, and settled down in a second-class hospital in the provincial capital, running back and forth between the rental house and the inpatient department every day.In order to make up for the expenses, Tang Daihe also sold the house in his hometown.From then on, the life of the family took a turning point, and the days of wandering around seeking medical treatment began.
