Know what I mean

The handlebar of the tricycle was tilted to one side, and Elder Shen leaned forward from his seat and fell down. When his head touched the ground, he was supported by Shen Duoyi who ran over.

Maomao cried out of fright, jumped out of the car pocket, and even threw the remaining half of the milk stick on the ground.

"Grandpa!" Shen Duoyi pushed the tricycle away vigorously, ensuring that there was enough space for Elder Shen to lie flat.The old man in his arms has lost consciousness, and he can't even see whether he is breathing.

Shen Duoyi's hand to call the ambulance was trembling, and his voice trembled after speaking.He hugged Shen Lao's shoulders, neck and head, and used his body to block the last bit of light at dusk.

Maomao cried so much that he thought it was because of his urging that Elder Shen became like this.Shen Duoyi raised his hand to wipe the tears off Maomao's face, and coaxed: "Don't cry baby, go home by yourself, Grandpa Shen is fine, and I will take you to the park to ride the carousel some other day."

During off-duty hours, more residents came and went, and soon some neighbors gathered around.Everyone anxiously asked if they needed help, but the symptoms were unknown at this time, and they dared not act rashly.

Shen Duoyi looked at the half stick on the ground, the cream gradually melted, no one could stop and change it.He lowered his head, wondering if Old Shen could hear: "Grandpa, don't go."

"Even if you leave, you can't be in such a hurry, please."

The ambulance arrived 10 minutes later, but these 10 minutes seemed extremely long and tormented.Elder Shen was carried into the ambulance on a stretcher by the medical staff, and Shen Duoyi sat on the side of the car and stared at the ambulance staff to give first aid.

After arriving at the hospital, Mr. Shen was directly pushed into the first-aid room. The lights at the door and corridor were emitting white light, making the red signal light on the door extremely dazzling.

Shen Duo sat on the bench with a bloodless face, his fingers were still trembling after signing the agreement.Mr. Shen had a sudden myocardial infarction and was almost in shock when he fell off the tricycle.

I have been wary and worried about high blood pressure for a long time, but I didn't expect to suffer from myocardial infarction.

Shen Duoyi leaned against the back of the chair, his body under the shirt felt cold. Twenty years ago, when his parents had an accident, Mr. Shen was so stimulated that he had a heart attack.He was in the hospital at that time, and the rescue was quick, and he never committed a crime after recovering.

The nurse came over with a cup of hot water, and said with concern: "Mr. Shen, have a cup of water, we have to wait."

"Thank you." Shen Duoyi took it, feeling the temperature of the water through the disposable paper cup, and his fingertips were the first to warm up.The hot water flowed down the throat and into the stomach, and the body gradually became less stiff.

He drank the water and exhaled, forcing himself to calm down.He is the only pillar of the family, and he can't get messed up when encountering anything.When he was young, Elder Shen took care of him, and later they depended on each other for life, and he grew up to protect Elder Shen from wind and rain.

Shen Duoyi took out his mobile phone to call the administrator, asked for a day off, and explained the work arrangement.Then call the customers who have made an appointment to meet one by one, and postpone all the affairs in hand.

He had just been promoted to be a supervisor, and he was going to ask for leave the next day. A sense of powerlessness spread throughout his body, and he couldn't find an outlet to vent it.The phone rang, and it was Grandpa Mao Mao who called to inquire. He didn't tell the other party which hospital he was in. They were all old people, and running around was no good.

Shen Duoyi stared at the phone screen in a daze until he saw the automatic lock screen, then raised his head and started staring at the red light at the top of the emergency room.His eyes were focused, but his eyes were not focused. When the phone rang again, it took him a long time to react to answer it.

"Hey?"

"It's me, what are you doing?" Qi Shi'an's gentle voice came from the phone, with a leisurely look after a busy day.Shen Duoyi was soothed a lot by the voice, and his tense nerves relaxed a little.

He withdrew his gaze and lowered his eyes dizzily: "I'm in the hospital."

The red light on the top of the emergency room finally went out, and Shen Duoyi immediately rushed to the door to wait, so nervous that there was nothing left in his mind.The door opened a crack and gradually opened, several medical staff pushed Mr. Shen out from inside.

Shen Duoyi leaned over and grabbed the edge of the bed, and shouted eagerly but in a low voice: "Grandpa, grandpa? Can you hear me, grandpa..."

He was anxious to let Elder Shen perceive his presence, but he was also afraid of disturbing the other party's stable state.The doctor took off the mask and said, "There is no danger for now, let's send the patient to the ward first."

Shen Duoyi hurriedly nodded his thanks, and he was relieved after pushing Mr. Shen into the ward.When Qi Shi'an arrived, he saw Shen Duoyi sitting beside the hospital bed, with the partition curtain drawn, the old and the young were besieged in this narrow space.

"Duoyi." He called out in a low voice, and when Shen Duoyi turned around, he happened to walk to the other side.He leaned over to look at Elder Shen's face, and asked, "What's going on, what did the doctor say?"

Shen Duoyi replied: "Sudden myocardial infarction, I was riding three rounds and fell directly to the ground. Now I am out of danger after the rescue. I have asked for leave, and I will not go to the company tomorrow."

Qi Shi comforted Shen Duoyi's back: "Don't worry about work, just concentrate on taking care of grandpa. How can you live in this kind of large ward with multiple people? Are there not enough beds?"

"Well, there's no appointment, so there's no room for a single ward." Shen Duoyi tucked the quilt up for Elder Shen, "Wait and see if I can be transferred to another hospital. I don't know when Grandpa will wake up."

It was late at night, and the ward became more and more quiet, only the sound of snoring and intermittent coughing.Elder Shen lay peacefully on the hospital bed, with his eyes closed, no different from his usual sleeping appearance.

Qi Shian made a phone call in the corridor, and walked along the corridor to the corner after the call.He bought two bottles of water from the self-service beverage machine, and heard Shen Duoyi talking to the doctor at the corner.

"When was the patient's last illness?"

"The last time was 20 years ago." Shen Duoyi replied, "Doctor, what is the cause of the myocardial infarction this time, and will it be all right after being rescued?"

The doctor said: "The number of patients with myocardial infarction is increasing every year, and there is a trend of younger people. Many of them have been rescued, and some have not been delivered in time or are in serious condition. We have no way to recover. The old man is already eighty, and his physical condition is not considered. Well, anyway, it is recommended that the family make all preparations.”

Shen Duoyi asked self-deception: "...what are you preparing for?"

Qi Shi'an turned around from the other side, stepped forward to put Shen Duoyi's shoulders, and persuaded: "Don't do this, let's not embarrass the doctor." After he finished speaking, he said to the doctor, "Can the patient be transferred after waking up? The environment is not good."

The doctor replied: "If the situation is okay, there is no problem. The elderly really need a good rest environment."

"Thank you, doctor." After the doctor left, Qi Shi'an turned around and hugged Shen Duoyi into his arms. He stroked Shen Duoyi's back one after another, and gently squeezed the back of Shen Duoyi's neck with his other hand, " I contacted an uncle in the General Hospital of the Military Region, and when my grandfather woke up, he would be transferred to another hospital."

Shen Duo's voice changed: "What did the doctor mean just now?"

Qi Shi'an replied truthfully: "I don't care, no one can predict when this disease will happen again, and no one can guarantee that it will be rescued in time next time, so the doctor answered you like that. Grandpa is very old, and the pain he suffered Many old people are also going through it, so don't get into a dead end, just look away."

Shen Duoyi struggled to organize his words: "I didn't dig into the horns. We took him out to dinner not long ago. When you came to my house that night, he even showed you his birthday. When I left in the morning, he argued with me as usual. He Before he got sick, he took Maomao to the park for a ride on the horse."

"But he, but he's lying inside now." Shen Duoyi pushed Qi Shi'an away, and he took two steps back to lean against the wall, "He lay there motionless, the doctor told me to get ready, I really don't want to Knowing what to prepare for, I don't know..."

Qi Shi'an took a step closer: "Duoyi, where were you when the big bang happened?"

Shen Duoyi stared blankly: "I was playing with Fei Yuan on the street."

Qi Shi'an asked again: "Then were you happy then?"

Shen Duoyi's eyes were already red: "Happy."

The shoulders were grasped so that his exhausted body would not slip off the wall. Shen Duoyi stared into Qi Shi'an's eyes, and shed two lines of tears when he frowned.

Qi Shi'an said to him: "You were happy before the accident. You didn't expect that accident to happen. A person was living normally before being diagnosed with a terminal illness, and he would not start crying a few years in advance."

"Unfortunate accidents happen in a happy life, there is no reason at all, some are just people who don't want to face and can't accept it."

Shen Duoyi raised his hand and rubbed it on his face. He knew he had to face it if he didn't want to, and he could only accept it if he couldn't accept it.

Qi Shi'an stretched out his palm: "This time, I will face it with you and accept it together. You have to be strong, at least let grandpa rest assured."

Shen Duoyi put his hand on Qi Shi'an's palm, and he was pulled into Qi Shi'an's arms again.It is said that many old people can't survive the whole winter, but now it's not even late autumn.Shen Duoyi closed his eyes wearily, if the chest in front of him was not so warm, he really wanted to get it over with.

For him, the accident 20 years ago was a nightmare. If Mr. Shen left, it would be like letting him have the nightmare again. After waking up from the dream, he would be completely an orphan.

The two of them stayed up all night, and Shen Duoyi stayed by the bed all night.When it was almost dawn, Old Shen finally woke up, his cloudy eyes slowly opened, and he opened his mouth and could only let out a low moan similar to a sob.

Shen Duoyi took a cotton swab and a straw to feed Elder Shen water, and Qi Shi'an immediately rang the call bell. After the doctor came, he examined Elder Shen and explained some precautions.

After more than two hours of delay, Mr. Shen was finally able to speak.

Shen Duoyi lay beside the bed: "Grandpa, what do you want?"

Elder Shen half closed his eyes and said, "If you want to rest assured, it will be done."

Shen Duoyi pursed his lips tightly and nodded, then stretched out his hand to stroke old Shen's dry and gray hair: "I don't worry, and you can too, the doctor said it's all right. Let's go to the General Hospital of the Military Region later, there is a separate ward."

Qi Shi'an also bent down: "Grandpa, sleep a little longer, it's still early."

Old Shen looked at him: "Xiao Qi is here too, please."

After daylight, the ambulance from the General Hospital of the Military Region came to pick up old Shen and transfer him to another hospital. Shen Duoyi sat in the car and accompanied him, and Qi Shian drove along the road to follow.

The advanced ward was quiet and spacious. Mr. Shen lay down after drinking a bowl of rice porridge, closed his eyes and fell asleep after the infusion.Qi Shi'an and Shen Duoyi moved to the living room outside to have breakfast, both of them had dark circles under their eyes.

"Eat more, you didn't eat last night." Qi Shi'an broke the sugar cake into small pieces and soaked it in soy milk, getting his hands full of oil, "Be good, you have to finish it when I come back after washing my hands."

Shen Duoyi compromised: "How can you eat so neatly?"

Qi Shi'an stood up and walked out: "I'll go to the water room outside to wash, and get a pot of hot water by the way, enough for you to finish eating."

He opened the door and went out to wash his hands. After washing, he walked back along the corridor. There was a garden downstairs, and he saw You Zhe with a casual glance.You Zhe left in a hurry with a file bag in hand. He probably had a routine physical examination and came here to get the results when he had time.

Elder Shen is recovering little by little, but no one can tell when the next time of this sudden illness will be, so Shen Duoyi is always worried.During this period, he moved all the documents to the ward to do. The nurses could help him reduce some of the burden, but they could not reassure him completely.

Another half of the day passed, Shen Duoyi looked at the time, and asked Qi Shi'an: "Do you have a meeting today?"

Qi Shi'an replied: "Yes, but I want to postpone it for a while, isn't there a consultation later?"

"I'm fine here." Shen Duoyi sat by the hospital bed with a computer on his lap, "You have done a lot, don't delay other things. I have sent the plan to the client, and I will try to clarify Take time to go back to the company for an interview in the next two days."

Qi Shi'an thought for a while: "Send Zhang Yiming's mailbox and let him talk. The situation is special, and he will be happy to help."

Shen Duoyi stays in bed every day to take care of him, and occasionally takes time to go back to the company to deal with work, so there is basically no extra time to breathe.But Mr. Shen was recovering little by little, even if he just went from lying down to doing it, his will also strengthened little by little.

"Grandpa, does your hand hurt?"

Because of the infusion every day, Shen Lao had an indwelling needle stuck on the back of his hand. He sat on the head of the bed and waved his hand: "It doesn't hurt, and I don't feel uncomfortable. Don't keep supporting me."

Shen Duoyi stirred the custard in the bowl, and said, "Who made an offering to you? You think you are a Bodhisattva."

Shen Laobai glared at him: "I don't go to work, and you are watching me all day long. Didn't you just become a supervisor? His colleagues and leaders should have some opinions. By the way, there is also Xiao Qi, who runs to the hospital every day. I feel bad about it."

Shen Duoyi scooped up a spoonful of custard and fed it to Elder Shen: "Grandpa, don't worry about the mess, I can take care of it. You can make up for work delays, and you can even find it if you lose it, but I only have you Grandpa, don't be sloppy at all."

Shen Laogang wanted to sigh, but was blocked by Shen Duoyi with a spoon.

"Don't sigh, I don't like to hear it." Shen Duoyi looked at the old man seriously, "It's almost National Day, if you recover well, we will be discharged from the hospital before the holiday, so you have to be happy, you should eat, you should drink."

"I know." Old Shen's eyelids were slack, and he looked particularly lethargic, but he had actually been observing Shen Duoyi intently.But at this moment, Shen Duoyi's calm words reassured him, he felt that his good grandson was very strong.

The week in the hospital was like a year, Shen Duoyi brought the radio at home, and when he had nothing to do, he played Pingshu and listened to Mr. Shen together. Sometimes when Qi Shian came, the three of them listened together and had a discussion.

There were few people in the hospital on weekends, but the inpatient department was no different from usual. Mr. Shen changed into a new inpatient uniform, sat on the edge of the bed and yelled hysteria at the window.

It was cool in autumn, and Shen Duoyi put on his knitted sweater again, and when he walked in with his sleeves rolled up, he happened to see old Shen's hunched back.The old man who was already in shape and bones looked fragile, and just sitting quietly could make people feel anxious and sore.

"Grandpa, you're hysterical." He walked closer to Elder Shen, "The sun is shining today, do you want to go out?"

Elder Shen supported the end of the bed: "I think, autumn in the north is very windy, I didn't hear the wind today, I want to go out to bask in the sun."

Shen Duoyi asked the nurse for a wheelchair, and then pushed Old Shen to the garden downstairs to let the wind go.The long pavilion turned around in seven turns, and there were a dozen gray pigeons gathered on the lawn. There were many old people who came out to bask in the sun, and they were all sick.

They found a place with few people, next to a big locust tree, the leaves filter out part of the sunlight, and it is not so sunny.Shen Duoyi didn't make a sound, and quietly accompanied Mr. Shen, as if when he was a child, he was holding the desk to do his homework, and Mr. Shen sat beside him quietly to accompany him.

"So mean!"

With a sudden loud shout, Shen Duoyi and Old Shen raised their heads at the same time.Under the long pavilion a few steps away, Mr. Huo stood upright, holding a portfolio.

Shen Duoyi immediately got up to greet him: "Grandpa, why are you in the hospital? Are you feeling unwell?"

Boss Huo strode over, looking quite comfortable. He patted Shen Duoyi on the shoulder as a comfort, and said, "I'll get the medical report. I heard from Shi'an that your grandpa is hospitalized. Come over and have a look."

Huo Lao walked up to Shen Lao's wheelchair and bowed his straight back to say hello: "Brother, how are you feeling? I still want to ask you to go fishing."

Shen Duoyi introduced to Elder Shen: "Grandpa, this is Shi An's grandfather."

Elder Shen stretched out his right hand like firewood, shook hands with Elder Huo, and replied, "It's all right, I'll be discharged from the hospital on National Day."

"That's good, celebrate the National Day." Huo Lao said loudly, and sat down on the chair next to him, "Duoyi, Shi'an went to the ward to look for you, you go and have a look."

Shen Duoyi left. Old Shen didn't know the age of the other party, so for the convenience of addressing, he asked, "Are you living a long life this year?"

Mr. Huo said: "I'm over 70, and I don't remember the exact number, but I don't smoke and drink alcohol, so I guess I look a little old." He opened the file bag and took out the medical examination report inside, "Check twice a year, troublesome Dead. What are you doing so carefully, you have to leave when the time comes, brother, don’t you think so?”

Elder Shen nodded: "It's probably time for me. God has treated me well. This time I didn't let me go directly. This is the time to say goodbye."

"Don't be too pessimistic." Mr. Huo leaned closer, "People of our age have already seen it, we can't chew meat, we have presbyopia when we watch scenes, and we can't hear a play. If it weren't for the children, it would be true Nothing to miss."

Mr. Shen confided truthfully: "My son and daughter-in-law have been away for 20 years, and there is not a day that I do not miss them. The feeling of a white-haired person giving a black-haired person is more difficult than six or nine days in an ice hole. But when I got sick, it was true. I'm afraid, I'm afraid I'll leave without saying a word, my family can't stand it."

Huo Lao patted the back of Shen Lao's hand: "Brother, what do you think of my family's safety?"

Old Shen replied: "Anywhere is fine."

"He is really good at everything, and he is also good at everything for Duoyi." Mr. Huo lowered his voice, became more solemn and serious, "Shi'an is my precious grandson, and your Duoyi will also be my treasure in the future. Grandson, Shi An's parents are Duoyi's parents. You have to live well, but don't worry if the time comes, our family will follow Duoyi, so that he won't be alone."

Old Shen's lips moved, as if there were thousands of thoughts and words, but in the end it only became a force holding Huo Lao's hands, and an indescribable gratitude.

Shen Duoyi met Qi Shi'an on the way, and the two of them turned back together, then stood under the corridor and looked at the two old people not far away.Huo Lao didn't know what he said, but Shen Lao kept smiling on his sluggish face.

Finally, there was a gust of autumn wind, Shen Duoyi was going to push Mr. Shen back to the ward, and Mr. Huo was going back to the rest house.

"Brother, I won't send you up. Let's go fishing together after you leave the hospital."

"Hey, good." Elder Shen nodded frequently, as if he had hope for the days to come.Divided into two routes, Shen Duoyi pushed Mr. Shen back to the inpatient building, and Qi Shi'an sent Mr. Huo to the entrance of the hospital.

Huo Lao said: "Okay, the orderly is waiting, you can go back."

Qi Shi'an asked, "Grandpa, what did you say to Duoyi's grandfather?"

Huo Lao blew his beard and stared: "You don't care about us, we are chatting happily."

The waiting military vehicles gradually drove away, Qi Shi'an turned around and walked back, guessing eight or nine points of what Huo Lao said.After returning to the ward, he gently opened the door of the inner room, and saw that Elder Shen was already lying on the bed, and Shen Duoyi was lying on the side of the bed with his arms folded.

It's like the younger generation listening to the elders telling stories.

Mr. Shen said: "I couldn't move when the accident happened, but I was very scared. I haven't explained anything yet. I was really afraid that I would just leave like that."

Shen Duoyi looked at the old man's gray temples: "Where are you going, I want you."

"Hey, if I want to go, I must go to the sky, and I won't go to the ground." Old Shen closed his half-closed eyes, and his words sounded like a hum, "It is the greatest thing to live to this age and go away without guilt. Good luck. Besides, your parents are still waiting for my reunion, and I have to beat gongs and drums along the way."

Shen Duoyi lowered her head and leaned into the corner of the quilt: "Look at how impatient I am, am I short of your food or short of your clothes?"

Elder Shen didn't answer, but suddenly opened his eyes again: "Suspicious, this problem comes on in a hurry, maybe you don't even have time to say anything, so we have to talk it out in advance."

Shen Duoyi clutched the quilt tightly: "Say what, I don't want to hear what you say."

Old Shen asked: "I met your parents, do you have anything to say?"

Shen Duoyi's teeth were trembling: "You must just be happy and forget about it."

Old Shen said unwillingly: "You treat me as an old fool, I will definitely remember it for you."

Qi Shi'an grabbed the doorknob, listening to the grandparent and grandson saying goodbye to each other, with mixed feelings in his heart.He saw that Shen Duoyi, who had been lying on the ground for a long time, finally raised his head, under his soft and quiet eyes, there was actually a deep anxiety and sadness hidden.

"Then tell me a few words." Shen Duoyi said, "Tell my parents that I'm doing well."

"Hmm." Elder Shen asked, "Is there another sentence?"

Shen Duoyi moved her lips: "Take good care of you, wear warm clothes and eat enough."

He has already choked up: "You guys, don't let me miss you."
