1942 Go to bed
The only electrical appliance in the house is probably the old ceiling fan hanging from the ceiling.
Uh, no, there is also a color TV, but it is a 14-inch domestic Peony made in the 1980s. The picture tubes are old and the picture is blurry, but it is the only tool for Shanshan's father to kill time.
The kitchen is very small, no more than five square meters by visual inspection. It is a simple stove made of two ceramic tiles. The stove is so black that the original appearance of the cheapest stove can no longer be seen.
The bathroom is even smaller, with a toilet taking up two-thirds of the space. The cheapest plastic faucet has a washbasin with a lot of porcelain that has fallen off, which is where the family washes.
The only room in the house that can still be seen is probably Yuan Shanshan's room. Although after placing a 1.2-meter steel wire bed, it can only accommodate an old dressing table and a simple wardrobe. It is difficult to even turn around.
It was kept very clean.
There are no cuddly bears or cartoon dolls, just simple red and white striped sheets and a single pillow, which is so simple that it makes people feel sad.
To put it bluntly, every toilet in Xilin's house is much larger than that in Shanshan's house. Ding Ning really can't imagine how Shanshan and her family of four have lived in such a narrow space for so many years.
"This has been settled. I heard Shanshan say that when she was a child, she lived in a shanty town. The two houses together did not exceed 20 square meters. She cooked on the briquette stove at the door and had to go to the toilet twice.
The public toilets inside and outside have tiled roofs that leak when it rains. You have to use large pots and small pots to catch them when they are full.
She had to change it quickly, otherwise there would be flooding in the house. What she was most afraid of was strong winds. Once the wind blew, the whole family would not dare to stay in the house, for fear that the house would collapse and be buried inside. Summer was fine, but if
In winter, it's miserable. It's as cold as an iceman outside, and you don't dare to go home if the wind doesn't stop."
Xilin said quietly.
"How could this happen? Although Shanshan rarely talks, she has always been optimistic and cheerful. I never thought that her family's conditions would be so bad. Shanshan, it's really hard."
Diba murmured to himself, not showing contempt or looking down on Yuan Shanshan, but a look of distress on his face.
"Hey, her family was originally in pretty good condition, but a car accident disabled her father and ruined her life. Life is really not easy."
Xilin sighed deeply.
"No, we have to find a way to help them."
Diba said emotionally that she only knew that Yuan Shanshan's family conditions were not good before, but she did not expect it to be so bad. After seeing it with her own eyes this time, she could no longer remain calm and had to help her best friend no matter what.
"Help? How to help? It's not like you don't know that with Shanshan's stubborn temper, if she doesn't do anything right, she will be annoyed, and she will think that we are pitying her and giving her charity."
Xilin said with a sad face: "I believe what Ding Ning said now. It's not that she has strong self-esteem, but that she has too low self-esteem deep down. If it were me, I would definitely have even more low self-esteem than her."
"Then what should we do? We can't just watch Shanshan suffer so much pressure and we can't help, right? Although Yuan Ye has a job, it only reduces her burden. Her uncle is paralyzed in bed, and she is not around her.
If we don't work, the aunt will have to take care of the uncle at home, and the family of three will have to live on Shanshan's salary. If this continues, when will the end of the world be reached?"
Diba said worriedly.
"paralysis?"
Xilin's eyes suddenly lit up and she said excitedly: "I thought about it, the Shanshan family is like this, in the final analysis, it is because there is a paralyzed patient in the family. If Ding Ning can cure his uncle, then the burden on the Shanshan family will not be heavy.
Is it lessened?"
"That's what I say, but my uncle has been paralyzed for so many years. Can Ding Ning cure him?"
Although Diba agrees, Ding Ning, even if he has good medical skills, wants to cure paralysis.
How can it be so easy for a useless person who is young?
"Let Ding Ning give it a try. If he can be cured, of course everyone will be happy. If he can't be cured, it won't have any impact."
When Xilin heard that this was indeed the case, she was still a little unwilling to give up.
Diba bit her pink lips, with a look of embarrassment on her face, and sighed secretly. Some things were not as simple as Xilin thought, but she couldn't say them out, otherwise it would appear too selfish.
How could it not have any impact if Shanshan's father couldn't be cured? Ding Ning is a little miracle doctor. If word spread, it will seriously affect his reputation.
Ding Ning eavesdropped on their conversation, feeling warm in her heart. Although these two women had very different personalities, they had a lot in common, that is, they were kind-hearted and righteous enough.
In fact, even if they didn't say it, he planned to restore Shanshan's father to health. Of course, this matter was not that simple. Physical injuries are easy to heal, but psychological injuries are difficult to heal.
If Shanshan's family wants to continue living well, they must get out of the Urumqi environment. After all, Shanshan's mother had no choice but to do many disgraceful things in order to survive.
Now they are living in a shabby room with the door closed and have no contact with the outside world. But once Shanshan's father recovers and goes to work, the rumors and rumors behind his back will drive him to death.
"Come back and ask for Ding Ning's opinion. See if he is sure. If not, forget it. After all, he is famous now. If Shanshan's father cannot be cured, it will have a very bad impact on him."
Diba hesitated again and again, but decided to tell the truth to avoid Xilin thinking too much.
Xilin's expression changed slightly, and she secretly cursed herself for being careless and not considering this. She was no less concerned about Ding Ning than Diba, so how could she want her sweetheart's reputation to be damaged.
"Yes, Shanshan's father has been paralyzed for so many years. It is reasonable that he cannot be cured. Let's ask Ding Ning for his opinion tomorrow."
Xilin's attitude was no longer so firm, which made Diba secretly relieved, feeling that her best friend was still very reasonable.
He quietly returned home and saw Ding Ning sleeping soundly on the sofa with his legs curled up. Diba looked at him absentmindedly, feeling slightly distressed.
He must be exhausted from running back and forth for her, but Xilin refused to leave. She could only let him sleep on the sofa. How long was the sofa? Ding Ning was tall and could only curl up his legs.
How can I feel comfortable sleeping?
She secretly wondered if she should change to a bigger house. Otherwise, if Ding Ning came to the house again and this situation happened again, she would have to sleep on the sofa, which she couldn't bear.
"What's wrong? You can't bear to leave him? Do you blame me for disturbing your good things?"
Siren teased her in a low voice.
Diba blushed, hit her angrily, and then said with some distress: "The sofa is so short, he can't sleep at all. Where can he rest well?"
"Hey, why don't you let him sleep in the house? I'll sleep on the sofa."
Xilin rolled her eyes, flashing a cunning look.
"How about that? Forget it, let's just make do with it for one night. It's almost dawn anyway."
How dare Diba let Xilin sleep on the sofa? She shook her head helplessly.
Ding Ning, who was full of expectations, felt depressed for a while. Why is this silly girl so unprincipled? Just hold on a little longer.
"How about the three of us go to bed together."
Xilin suggested with some guilt.
"ah!"
Diba's eyes widened in astonishment. Three people sleeping together? How to sleep?
"It's just sleeping. Everyone sleeps in his own way. You don't want to take the opportunity to do something bad, right? Don't worry, even if you do do something, I promise you won't hear anything or anything.
Can’t see.”
Xilin said teasingly, but she was secretly beating a drum in her heart, lest Diba would become suspicious.
"Damn it, Nizi, what are you talking about? It's not impossible, but my parents will definitely be unhappy if they find out about it in the morning."
Diba was a little moved, but she was worried that her parents would think too much. After all, although they were open-minded, they were not open-minded enough to let Sirin sleep in the same bed with her daughter and son-in-law.
"Hey, that's not easy. Just let him sneak back when your parents get up soon. It's better than him curling up and feeling so uncomfortable."
Seeing Diba's heart move, Xilin immediately encouraged her.
"Then... okay, I'll tell him to get up and go into the house."
Diba felt sorry for her boyfriend and compromised unprincipledly. She knelt down and pushed Ding Ning, whispering: "Ding Ning, get up and sleep in the house."
"Um……"
Ding Ning's acting skills are by no means inferior. Diba shouted for a long time before he rubbed his eyes sleepily and looked at her: "What's wrong? Is it dawn yet?"
"No, this sofa is too short. I saw how uncomfortable you were sleeping, so I came to ask you to come in and sleep."
Diba's face was a little red. Although everything that was supposed to happen had already happened, calling a man to go to bed in the middle of the night still made her feel uncomfortable.
Ding Ning sat up, moved his limbs and neck with a look of pain on his face, and said hypocritically: "No need, just one night will be enough."
This hard-to-get move made Diba feel even more distressed. She took his arm and said without any doubt: "Get up, go to the house and sleep, don't get stiff."
Xilin on the side snickered secretly, but it was impossible to tell that Ding Ning was totally committed and was just acting on purpose.
"But uncle and aunt?"
Ding Ning said with a troubled face.
"It's okay. My parents usually get up on time at seven in the morning. I set the alarm for 6:40, so you can sneak back early."
Diba was already prepared, even setting the alarm clock.
"Oh well."
Ding Ning felt happy in her heart, but with a reluctant look on her face, Diba forced her into the room.
Diba's bed was quite big, and the two-meter-two-meter bed was very comfortable to sleep on, especially since Diba had already been so sleepy that she fell asleep snuggled in Ding Ning's arms not long after getting into bed.
This was a great advantage for a certain couple. Xilin was in high spirits, and the excitement of having an affair made her not sleepy at all. Ding Ning, on the other hand, had advanced cultivation and could go without sleep for ten and a half months without any problem, although she couldn't.
He does bad things with real guns and live ammunition, but he also does small things like touching buttons.
Sometimes time passes very slowly, but sometimes it passes very quickly. Ding Ning felt that the alarm went off not long after he went to bed.
Diba in her arms seemed to be awakened and moved in a daze. Ding Ning was so frightened that she quickly took back her hand that was wiping Xilin's body.
Turning off the alarm, he climbed up reluctantly, kissed Diba on the lips, looked at Xilin's resentful eyes, leaned over and kissed her on the lips again, and then sneaked back to the living room.
Lying on the sofa and curling up, he continued to pretend to be asleep.
Life in this world depends entirely on acting.
Ding Ning sighed with satisfaction, a smile on his face, and he fell asleep in such a comfortable mood.
The sound of pushing and closing the door seemed to be heard in my ears. It must be Di's parents getting up. They shook their heads to dispel their sleepiness and sat up.
"The sofa is too short. Isn't it comfortable to sleep on?"
Di's mother watched him get up, walked over quickly, and asked with concern.
"It's okay, I slept well."
