together for a moment

Not long after dawn, Uncle Zhang returned to the hospital, and he carried his hands full of things energetically. The big bag was some change of clothes, including those of Zhao Yimu and Tang Qing, and the small bag was a thermos bag filled with porridge, chicken soup, and other fruits. dessert.

Zhao Yimu was dumbfounded at this battle. Uncle Zhang had prepared so thoroughly in less than five hours, he really treated them as half of his family.

"Uncle Zhang, what a shame..." Zhao Yimu took the things and put them on the table, looked at his expression, "Are you sleeping?"

"It's enough for me to sleep for three hours. It's okay to wake up early. I'll help you run errands for exercise. You go and wash up first. It's more comfortable." Uncle Zhang fished out the clothes and towels from the bag for him, and looked up to the hospital bed He took a look and asked, "Tang Tang is still awake?"

Before Zhao Yimu could answer, he caught a glimpse of his mother stirring on the bed, as if she was about to wake up, so he and Uncle Zhang walked quickly to the bed to check.

"Mom." Zhao Yimu called softly.

I saw Tang Qing's eyelids moving, his chest heaving, and after taking a deep breath, he woke up leisurely, his eyes drooping weakly without focus, and Zhao Yimu called again, "Mom, are you awake?"

Tang Qing looked at Zhao Yimu after hearing the words, the dispute and anger from the previous night gradually gathered in her heart, and hatred soon appeared in her eyes, she stared at Zhao Yimu, turning words into a weapon, "Why don't you let me die? "

"Mom..." Zhao Yimu's eyes turned red immediately, and he begged, "Don't say that..."

"Without my old woman, your life would be brighter and brighter." Mom struggled to speak, and she glanced away from him.

"Hey, it's going too far." Uncle Zhang pulled Zhao Yimu away from the bed and pushed him towards the bathroom, "Mu Mu, go wash and change your clothes first, it's smelly."

Zhao Yimu knew that it would be futile to say anything else, so he walked to the attached bathroom in the ward with his head downcast, maybe his mother would feel better if he didn't see him.

Uncle Zhang saw that Tang Qing still had a stern face, rolled his eyeballs, and teased her: "Tang Tang, I always thought you were a kitten-like person who swallowed your anger, but I didn't expect you to become a lion when you were angry. kill me,

"If you want to encounter the same thing as me, it may be even more popular." Tang Qing said angrily.

Uncle Zhang didn't delve into the quarrel between their mother and son, and just kept making jokes, "I see your ruthlessness and strength in smashing your mobile phone, if you used to be a grenadier in the army."

Tang Qing twitched the corners of her mouth to try to make the smallest smile, and her tone softened a lot. She sighed, "I made you laugh, and I trouble you to run around."

"I said it, the neighbors are equivalent to half of the family in 20 years. They are all crying and laughing." Uncle Zhang looked down at Tang Qing and said, "I don't meet each other every day, I feel uncomfortable."

Tang Qing felt that what she said was true, but she was embarrassed to be said so seriously, she bent the corner of her mouth, and this time it was a real smile, "You are stupid, what comfort do you have when two old faces look at each other every day?"

"I'm happy." Uncle Zhang shrugged and smiled.

When Zhao Yimu came out of the bathroom, he found that the two elders were talking happily, and hesitated for a while, fearing that he would make his mother angry again in the past.

But he didn't hesitate for too long, because it was past seven o'clock in the morning when the attending physician led a team to round the ward. A group of doctors in long robes and short robes walked in mightily. Zhao Yimu immediately approached the hospital bed to listen to the doctor's instructions.

The chief physician first gave a general report on the patient's condition, all of which were proper nouns. Then the attending physician questioned and taught the teachers and students. The atmosphere was serious and he did not dare to disturb. Another doctor explained to him the next examination and related precautions in a language that ordinary people can understand.

"I will do a cardiac angiography scan first on an empty stomach, and then do an ultrasound from the esophagus, and then you can eat something but don't eat too much. The patient should keep warm, don't fluctuate too much, and rest more. I will prescribe some Drugs to control blood pressure and reduce heart pressure," the doctor said while scribbling on the paper, and when he finished speaking, he raised his head and asked Zhao Yimu, "Is there any problem?"

"Uh... Is my mother's condition serious?" Zhao Yimu knew it was very senseless to ask, but he just wanted to know this.

"The details depend on the examination results report. We can't make a conclusion right now. Let's do this first." The doctor didn't give him too much time, and before turning around to leave, he glanced at him sideways and said, "You can go to the nursing station for treatment of the wound on your face." one time."

A large number of people left, and the ward was restored to three people. Uncle Zhang looked at the contents of the thermos bag with regret, and said, "Oh, it's a pity that you can't eat Tang Tang for the examination, Mu Mu, would you like to eat some?" ? Are you hungry?"

Zhao Yimu had no appetite and shook his head.

"Mu Mu, raise my bed a little higher, I have something to ask you." Tang Qing's tone was cold.

"Then I'll go out first? You guys have a good talk." Uncle Zhang said.

"You keep it, Lao Zhang, there is nothing you can't listen to. If he dares to do such a thing, don't be afraid of others knowing," Tang Qing said with thorns in every word, "Mumu, are you serious with him? "

"Mom..." Zhao Yimu was very afraid of saying something that would irritate her.

"What did I ask you, are you serious with him?" Tang Qing asked again.

"Yes..." Zhao Yimu used all his strength to answer this word.

"I just don't understand. You used to date girls, so why did you suddenly change your sex?" Tang Qing asked him aggressively with a pale face: "I think you are either out of your mind or bewitched. He What are you trying to do?"

"Mom, that's not the case." Zhao Yimu didn't want to make too many arguments, and sighed helplessly, "Let's not talk about this for now. The doctor said that you should not have too much emotional ups and downs."

Tang Qing fell silent, and the three of them were speechless. The air in the ward seemed to condense into frost.

"Prove it to me. Let me see how serious you are, and see if you have been bewitched." When Tang Qing spoke again, his tone was calm and almost ruthless.

"How to prove this..." Zhao Yimu was puzzled.

"Call him in front of me and say you don't contact each other for two months, so calm down." Tang Qing panted and made the condition, "If you are the ones who want to leave for a lifetime, it's not bad for these few months."

"..." Zhao Yimu pursed his lips, lowered his head and lowered his eyes to stare at the toes of his shoes, took a few deep breaths, and wrinkled his trousers with his hands beside him.This has been his habit since he was a child. As long as his mother made a promise, he would persuade himself to make a promise between a few breaths and breaths, and this time was no exception.

"The phone is broken, I'll go out and call him." Zhao Yimu said.

"No, just call here," Tang Qing said firmly, "Old Zhang, lend him your mobile phone."

Uncle Zhang looked at Zhao Yimu in embarrassment, Zhao Yimu smiled wryly and said, "Uncle Zhang, can I borrow my phone?"

"Hey." Uncle Zhang handed him the phone.

"Hello." Hearing Nick's energetic voice, several emotions fluctuated alternately in Zhao Yimu's heart. He couldn't digest all of them stuck in his Adam's apple, and he couldn't make a sound.

"Hello? Hello, I'm Du Shangpin." Nick said again.

"Hey, it's me." Zhao Yimu spoke lightly.

"Owen? Why do you have this number?" Nick said, "Aren't you going to work at this time?"

"Well, I don't go to work today." Zhao Yimu's eyes were still on the toe of his shoes, "My mother is sick and is in the hospital now."

"Is the situation okay? Why did you suddenly get sick?" Nick paused, as if he had sensed, "What happened?"

"My mother... she knows, it's about the two of us." Zhao Yimu tried to adjust his breathing and speak smoothly, but unfortunately he couldn't do so. He heard his voice trembling, "She wants us to separate for a while, one or two Don't contact each other for a month, each other... think about it..."

The other end of the microphone fell silent, and Zhao Yimu heard the sound of the wind.

"Well, I see." Nick didn't sound too emotionally ups and downs, "Then I won't take the initiative to contact you during this period of time. Recently, my mother's situation is not good, and she is busy paying back the money and has a lot of work. We... Let's do our best."

Zhao Yimu pursed his lips tightly, afraid of saying something uncontrollable, he squeezed the phone so hard that his knuckles turned white.

"Don't go head-to-head with your mother, this kind of thing is not easy to accept, don't make both sides hurt." Nick said to himself, "You should also pay attention to your health, wear a mask when you go to the hospital, scarf and dilator Don’t forget to take it with you, don’t ignore your shortness of breath.”

Zhao Yimu clenched his teeth to hold back the tears. He listened to Nick's instructions greedily and heartbroken.

"Okay, let's not talk about it, how did I become such a mother-in-law?" Nick laughed softly at himself: "Then...you take care, don't worry about me."

"Hey," Zhao Yimu yelled before he was about to cut off the call. He wanted to delay a little longer, just a few seconds. He lowered his voice and said, "I'll go find you in spring, and we'll take Mother Du to see the sea."

"Well, I'll wait for you," Nick said.

After the call ended, Nick stared at the photo of the two of them on the phone screen in a daze. The cold wind in the winter morning seemed to blow into his heart, and he shivered from the cold.

It is not difficult for Nick to imagine what kind of situation Zhao Yimu is facing, but there is nothing he can do except to support him in his heart. Everyone has their own problems, and no one can answer them for others. Nick sniffled and put his phone back in his pocket, striding into the office, all he could do now was keep his faith and keep fighting for his life.

This day is as fulfilling and busy as every working day. Nick is gradually accumulating some word of mouth. If a client who has made a successful transaction before has a friend who wants to buy a house, he will be willing to recommend a friend to him for service. Of course, the performance is not as good as that of the company that has been working for a long time. Senior seniors, like Brother Li, whose turnover is several times that of his, but he has finally gained a firm foothold on this road, and if he continues like this, he may be able to pay off his debts one day.

From dawn to dusk, I took three or four groups of people to look at the house. When Nick entered the company, he had a lot of follow-up tasks in his mind. Questions raised by the buyer had to be confirmed with the owner. It is necessary to compare whether any of the latest houses for sale meet the customer's requirements.

"Xiao Du, Xiao Du" Brother Li yelled at the top of his voice as soon as he entered the office. After a few times, Nick pulled out of his thoughts, looked around for the source of the sound, and finally saw Brother Li waving to him.

"Brother Li, are you looking for me?" Nick walked into Brother Li's desk.

"It's not me looking for you, it's the superior officer looking for you. I've been looking for you all afternoon. I don't know what's going on. He said that as soon as he sees you, he will invite you to the office for an interview." Brother Li glanced at the independent office of the supervisor and then Turning back, he looked at Nick nervously and asked, "You haven't made any mistakes in your recent case, have you?"

Nick thought about it and said, "No, it's all quite normal."

"Well, it should be fine." Brother Li's face softened, "Probably the end of the year is coming, just find some new employees to talk to cheer up, the people above like to do this. You go in, follow the officer Just agree to the words, don’t have too many opinions, understand?”

"Well, I see." Nick pulled his cuffs to straighten his clothes, smoothed his hair after a day of drying outside, straightened his back and knocked on the door of the supervisor's office.

The conversation time was unexpectedly fast. Brother Li had only handled two customer consultation cases, and when he looked up, he saw Nick retreating from the supervisor's office.

"What's the matter? The conversation is so fast this time? Is it the same old talk again?" Brother Li approached Nick and walked back to his desk with him, "Does it tell you to be brave and willing to give? You talk about this every time. In other words, it’s okay to give, but there must be something to gain.”

"Brother Li." Nick swallowed his saliva as he looked at the table full of documents and the densely written calendar, "He doesn't want me to pay...he told me to get out today."

Hmm... because I want to end it sooner, I changed it
