ruthless here

Counting this winter, it has been almost four years since I brought Bai Youyou to City S.

Yu Fan said that I am prematurely aging. When I graduated and returned to my country, I picked and picked, and finally chose such a place for the aged.

"Sister, you should come over too. You might be a few years younger after you come here."

Yu Fan who was far away in Beicheng was very angry.

When I was an undergraduate student in Beicheng, the environment was not as bad as it is now.But at the turn of winter and spring, there is always sand and dust passing through, and some memories seem to be shrouded in a layer of haze.

And here is located in the southeast, with a blue sea and blue sky. Although there are typhoons in summer and autumn and humidity that is difficult for northerners to get used to, the work intensity is not high, the salary is fair, and life is convenient. I have nothing to complain about.

When I accepted this job, it was also because it was more suitable for Yang Youyou.

Now I am a standard single father. Every day from nine to five, I rush to the kindergarten to pick up the children after work, and serve the children to eat and sleep when I get home. Every day is like a war.The company has a sound system and can work flexibly. When I am busy, I take my computer home and work overtime. I also have guaranteed rest on weekends and holidays. I can barely manage it alone.

In fact, when I returned to China, my parents and Yu Fan were very opposed to my settlement here.

They think that since I choose to go back to China to work, the first choice is of course my hometown, City A, where I have family to take care of and everything is convenient; otherwise, Beicheng, although the cost of living is high, is still close to home, and there will be development in the future.They don't quite understand that they choose to go south after going abroad for a while.

Especially Dad, when he heard that I had brought back a son, he almost wanted to sever the father-son relationship with me.I don't want to go back to my hometown, which is more or less the reason.

But my mother loves me so much, she came to help me take Yoyo for a year, and when we were both settled, I persuaded her again and again before she went back.

I know I am unfilial.But she said that it is inevitable for ordinary people to live like this, "every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite."What's more, with children, life is so troublesome and trivial, no one can take it easy.

After my mother returned to my hometown, I was not unaccompanied in S City.When I first came to settle down, thanks to Zhu Yan's help, he took me to look for a house and helped me settle down.

Zhu Yan was my roommate when I was an undergraduate student at U University. He is a native of S City. After graduation, he brought his girlfriend Xiao Zhao back to his hometown.The two soon got married and had children, and they were the most perfect couple in our dormitory.Later, I saw some people around me getting together and reuniting. Like them, they went from their hometown to Beicheng together, and then returned to their hometown to work and get married after graduation. They can be regarded as veritable gods and couples.

When the piglet was born, I sent a special gift from the United States.It's just that I never thought at that time that I would come to this strange city later.

Some things are really unpredictable.

Like Zhu Yan and Xiao Zhao, the journey has been uneventful, as if the script in their hands is a lifetime of peace and success.But this summer, Xiaozhu was found to be seriously ill, and they didn't let me know at first.The couple took their children to the north to seek medical treatment, and received expert consultation at the Affiliated Hospital of U University School of Medicine, but they could not be scheduled for surgery anyway, so they asked them to go home and wait for news.

When Zhu Yan told me, they had already returned from Beicheng disappointed, and I went to visit immediately after hearing about it.

He said that there were too many waiting in line for surgery, and he was afraid that it would be too late.

I was sad to hear that too.After all, it is the best medical resource in the country, and there will be no preferential treatment just because of a mere alumni status.

"Yu Fei," he said with difficulty, "I remember when you were studying, did you have a senior brother you knew well in the medical department?..."

Before I could speak, Xiaozhao had already rushed ahead, "We do our best to obey the destiny, so don't make things difficult for you."

I already understood why Zhu Yan didn't tell me at first.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier, that senior brother of mine works as a doctor in the affiliated hospital, I'll help you to ask!"

Even if I knew it, the relationship alone probably wouldn't work.

Zhu Yan seemed to expect that I would agree straight away, but he hesitated even more, "You mean..."

"Su Zhe, did I mention it to you? It's just my fellow countryman."

There was a relaxed look on his face, and he quickly thanked me.

I called Su Zhe that day.

Su Zhe seemed a little surprised when he received my call. After all, my relationship with him is not close or far.I don’t have much contact at ordinary times, and the circle of friends likes each other, but in the past few years after I returned to China, when I went home for the Spring Festival, he would always find me for dinner.

With just this little friendship, I feel uneasy to ask him to help you so much all of a sudden.But on the phone, Su Zhe agreed without embarrassment.He asked me for Zhu Yan's contact information and said he would ask for us.

I appreciate it.Su Zhe said he would ask for us, so he will definitely ask.

Su Zhe and I have known each other since we graduated from the same high school when I was studying at University of U for two years.We didn’t have much contact when we were studying. After all, he studied medicine and I studied computer. Except when I first entered school, I often asked him to ask questions. He also introduced me to a tutor. Intersected.

Trusting someone to see a doctor is no different. Zhu Yan and I are ordinary people, and we are so far away from Beicheng. There are really no resources that can be exchanged.

And Su Zhe is very special.

Within two days, Zhu Yan called and was very excited when he opened his mouth, "Feifei!"

"It's done?"

"We'll take the little pig there tomorrow!"

I'm really happy for them, the little pig has great hope now.

If you want to do something, you still have to knock on the right door and find the right person.

After the excitement, I immediately called Su Zhe to thank him, and promised to treat him to dinner when I returned to City A during the Spring Festival.He readily agreed, and said, "Actually, I was not the one who contributed to this matter."

"That……"

I was dumbfounded for a moment, not knowing what to say next.Human relationship is not my strong point, but no matter how stupid I am, I can still understand the meaning of Su Zhe's words.I'm afraid this incident made him owe others favors, and probably it's not something I can make up for with a single meal.

Even if Su Zhe and I don't pay much attention to these things, if he wants something from others, then of course it's another matter.

But he heard the polite way over there, "If Junior Brother really wants to honor me, why don't you send me a red envelope now."

"..."

"You asked me to order a takeaway first to satisfy my hunger. Why do I have to wait for the Spring Festival?"

"...Then, how much should I send you?"

"Just two hundred. I can't eat more. I haven't gone to the Northeastern restaurant in the west gate of the school for half a year."

I blurted out, "Is that store still there?"

He smiled softly, "Yeah."

As a child of Sanqin, Su Zhe likes Northeast cuisine very much. This is one of his many specialties, which is more earthly.

Xiaozhu's operation was very successful, but it was only half a year after he fully recuperated.

When it was winter, Zhu Yan asked me to have dinner together. I hadn't seen him for a long time, so I readily accepted the appointment.Zhu Yan and his wife look very good, which is very different from the state of Xiaozhu when he was sick, and I am very comforted to see it.

"Thanks to Yu Fei, Xiao Zhao and I toast to you!"

We generously drank the orange juice in the glass.I drove Yoyo with me, and they had to pick up their children from their parents' house, and no one dared to drink.Yoyo quickly ate and drank enough, fell asleep on my lap.They talked about the difficulties of seeking medical treatment in Beicheng, and I am afraid they only revealed one or two tenths of it to me, but they said many good things about doctors and nurses.

I secretly feel that good people are rewarded, and it is really suitable for Zhu Yan and the others.

Zhu Yan also said that before the operation, they unexpectedly received a donation from the alumni association, which was really helpful at that time.I was surprised, Su Zhe was so cheap for a takeaway meal.

"Su Zhe came to see us when he was in the hospital, and said to let me come back to thank you."

Su Zhe really did not play cards according to common sense, and it was too late for me to thank him.

Xiao Zhao reminded Zhu Yan, "There is also Doctor Yang."

Zhu Yan's face suddenly became a little embarrassed, "Oh yes, there is also that...the one on your basketball team back then, do you remember?"

I smiled, "Of course I do. He's fine?"

Xiao Zhao whispered, "Doctor Yang even drove us to the airport on purpose. The surgeon is working too hard, resting irregularly, and under a lot of pressure. He seems to be alone with the child..."

In his deep sleep, Yoyo seemed to be dreaming of something, I quickly patted him to coax him to continue sleeping.Zhu Yan greeted me to eat food and filled me with drinks.

"You think we are still young, right?" He was quite emotional, "But having a child, why does it feel like we are middle-aged in a blink of an eye... No one is immune."

I know where his emotion comes from.

Ordinary people like us, it is too ordinary to take care of our families.Everyone is like this, not just us.Some live a little better, some live a little worse, after all, they are ordinary people's lives.

But Yang Congbai is different.

In other words, we all thought that Yang Congbai should be different.

However, such emotions quickly dissipated in the daily trivialities.
