dance like a butterfly

The second sister-in-law asked me if I was really hurt.

I was surprised by my second sister-in-law's call.Dad was sick at home, and since I was injured, I didn't have the courage to call home.In the past 20 days, since I knew that Lao Han had brought an old Chinese doctor to Hua County to treat my father, and brought me the good news that my father was recovering day by day, I gradually felt relieved.But the second sister-in-law asked me in such an anxious tone, I really had a very ominous feeling.

I said, "It was hurt, but it's fine now."

The second sister-in-law complained: "Why didn't you tell your sister-in-law about such a big matter? Just because you were injured this time, our father fell ill again in a hurry."

Lao Han stood aside and looked at me. Seeing the thick beads of sweat oozing from my head, he grabbed the phone from my hand and stuck it to his ear.

I stood aside in a daze, unable to hear what Lao Han was saying, only saw his mouth changing his mouth shape and speaking hastily.My mind was a mess.

I know that for cerebral infarction patients, each relapse is very dangerous, and after each relapse, the physical condition will become worse and worse, and if the relapse is serious, it will be life-threatening.Elderly people with high blood pressure can't be angry, and they can't put things aside in their hearts. If something happens to the elderly because of me, I will never feel at ease for the rest of my life.

Lao Han hung up the phone, I grabbed his arm and shouted: "Brother, I want to go home, I want to go home."

Lao Han held me tightly in his arms, gently stroked my back and said, "Don't worry, I'll go to the attending doctor and see if I can ask for leave."

Lao Han went out, and I hurriedly put on my clothes.A thick sweater is put on the special elastic clothing, and a yellow down jacket is put on it.I also put on the red thread cap that Lao Zuo brought.Aren't there still some scabs on my face? Lao Zuo prepared a snow-white cotton scarf for me. After I tied it on, only the eyes were exposed, so that no trace of injury could be seen.

Not long after, Lao Han and Director Geng hurried over, and Director Geng said anxiously: "Xiaojun, if you say you can be discharged from the hospital now, Lao Han said that you have something urgent at home, you should go and have a look first. You will be discharged after you come back." Let’s go through the formalities, I’ve already greeted your director of the department. If you need me for something, you can call me, Lao Zuo said it, and asked me to greet you.”

We hurriedly shook hands with Director Geng to bid farewell, and we hurried into the car.

On the way, Lao Han didn't say a word.

"Brother, who do you think is so frizzy and told my family about this?"

"I heard from the second sister-in-law that she is from your company." During the hospitalization, the leaders of my company visited me one by one at the Fourth Medical University, and many salesmen who were friends with me also came.However, I really don't know who was so boring and boring, and told my family the bad news without knowing the time.

Lao Han glanced at me and said, "Don't ask who said it. Maybe he didn't know that Uncle was sick, but he just felt that your family didn't come. No matter what he said, he was kind."

I didn't speak any more, just sulked and sad at the same time.

In the field outside the window, the snow has sunk low.On the mountain in the distance, the shaded side of the mountain is completely covered with ice and snow, only on the top of the mountain, only jagged and mottled rocks are exposed.In the Guanzhong Plain in winter, there is no heating on sunny days. The sun hangs high in the sky, dazzling but cold.

At this time, Lao Zuo called.

"Xiaohui, I heard that you left the hospital, what happened to uncle?" Old Zuo was very anxious.

"I don't know the specifics yet, I'll go back and have a look now." I hesitated.

In my opinion now, I can no longer refuse Lao Zuo's concern for Dad.After all, Lao Zuo is a good person. In my village, everyone knows how much Lao Zuo cares about my family, and they are all jealous that I have such a "dry brother".

Lao Zuo didn't say anything, just hung up the phone.

Old Han turned his face away and asked blankly, "Is that him?"

I didn't say a word, do you even need to ask?Old Han sighed and stopped talking.

The snow on the expressway had already been cleared away, and it didn't take long for Hua County to arrive.

At the door of the house, I happened to meet my second brother, and he shouted excitedly: "You are back!"

Lao Han asked: "How is the situation now?"

The second brother said: "I heard that Xiaojun is fine, my father's mood is stable. His eyes are also blurred and he can see things."

I hurriedly ran to the house.

Stepping through the door, I yelled: "Dad—" with a sore heart, tears began to roll in my eyes.

Dad heard it, propped himself up and climbed up, stretched his long and thin arms far and wide, grasping and feeling in the air: "My baby is back!"

I haven't seen him for a few days, and the white hair on the temples of my father has increased a lot. The large gray hair makes him look very old. There is only a little flesh on his high cheekbones, and his face is gray and yellow.Knowing that I came back home, a little red light appeared on my face in an instant.There was some light in the cloudy eyes in an instant.

I grabbed his hand, and I wanted him to know that his son was really standing in front of him, whole and complete.

Dad shook my hand away vigorously, but his rough hands came to caress my face.

I untied the scarf and let his knuckle-thick palms caress the scars on my face.

"Is this the only injury? Are there any other places? Let Dad take a look and see where my baby is hurt!"

"There's still a little bit on the neck and back, but it's okay." I didn't want to lie to him, the injury was about to heal anyway.

Dad was in a hurry, "Come up, come up on the kang, dad will take a look."

"Dad, Xiaojun has already said it's okay, it's so cold, don't look at it!" At some point, the second sister-in-law stood at the door and said with a smile.

Dad looked at my neck, and while tucking his hand through my clothes, he gently stroked the scar and said, "There is still a relatively large scar on my back, does it hurt?"

I smiled and said, "It doesn't hurt, it's still a little itchy when I touch it. But I'm still taking medicine, and it will be fine when the scab falls off."

After a pause, Dad seemed to understand something: "Did you run out of the hospital?"

Dad turned around and said to the second sister-in-law: "Second sister-in-law, hurry up and cook, and let him go back to the hospital after dinner."

The second sister-in-law responded, smiled and said politely to Lao Han and went out.

Before she could take two steps, she suddenly heard the second sister-in-law laughing and saying, "Brother Zuo is here too!"

I turned my head to look, and old Zuo Zheng was striding into the courtyard gate.

Lao Han smiled unnaturally and said, "Old Zuo is here."

Lao Zuo nodded to Lao Han, and went directly to the edge of the Kang to shout: "Uncle, Uncle, are you okay?"

My dad threw me away and said, "He's here, and I haven't seen you for a long time. I thought you forgot about me."

An imperceptible tear flashed in the old left eye: "Uncle, how could I forget you, are you okay?"

Lao Han's expression was a little embarrassed. When he saw me looking at him, he lost his wink and laughed dryly as he looked at Lao Zuo's back.

Dad laughed: "I heard that Xiaojun was injured, so my eyes can't see. No, he's back, and I'm relieved to see that he's still alive and kicking."

Lao Han said: "It's also thanks to Lao Zuo this time. He put in a lot of effort, found acquaintances in the hospital, and took good care of Xiaojun, so he didn't delay his recovery."

Dad interjected: "I heard from my second sister-in-law that your old Han also put in a lot of effort. Let me just say, my little army is thanks to having you two brothers. This baby is destined to die!"

The atmosphere in the room finally relaxed.

Dad looked very happy and said, "Xiaojun is young and doesn't know much. It's not easy to be alone in the provincial capital. You two often help him like this. I really don't know how to thank you."

Old Zuo Lao Han said: "What are you talking about, uncle?"

Suddenly my father laughed: "Although my Xiaojun said he was injured, it doesn't mean that he can't find a wife, right? You two brothers, be more careful in the future, if you can find someone he likes, It’s really helping my old man but fulfilling his wish.”

As he spoke, Dad reached out and wiped away his tears.
