"Yige! How is your mother's illness?" Aunt Wang asked when she saw Jiang Yige.
"Aunt Wang, my mother is not sick!"
"Your father sent your mother to the county town last night, didn't you know?"
"What did you say? My mother is sick?" Jiang Yige felt as if he had been struck by lightning. How could I not know that my mother was sick? Why didn't they tell me.
"Hey! I heard that your mother has been sick for a long time. Maybe I didn't tell you because I was afraid that if you knew about it, it would affect the exam! Yige, don't worry too much. Maybe it's not a serious illness. I guess it will be fine if you go and get a checkup.
.”
"Well! I understand, Aunt Wang, thank you."
"Be polite to me, okay, I'm going to the fields!"
After hearing the news that his mother was ill, Jiang Yige no longer felt like going out to play. He returned home and sat quietly on the bed. His mood became more and more nervous. He felt that his mother's condition was not that simple. If it was just a normal illness,
How could his parents hide this from him? And thinking about his mother's unusual reaction in the past few days, Jiang Yige felt more and more that things were not that simple. He touched the fifty yuan in his pocket that his mother had given him to play with friends, and he
I decided to go to the county seat myself to see what happened to my mother, and stay with my mother.
On the bus leading to the county seat, Jiang Yige was eagerly waiting for the bus to arrive. After being anxious all the way, he finally arrived at the county bus station a few hours later. But when he got off the bus, Jiang Yige realized that he didn't know how to get to the county hospital.
He had never been to the county town before. After touching the fifteen yuan left in his trouser pocket, Jiang Yige decided to go there by motorcycle.
"Uncle! How much does it cost to go to the county hospital?"
"The county hospital? It's a few blocks away from here! It costs eight yuan."
"Can it be cheaper? How about six yuan?"
"Oh! Little brother, the price of oil is very expensive now! I can't give you any less."
"Uncle, please help me! My mother is sick and I need to go see her. I don't have much money left!"
"Forget it! This is your first time entering the county, right? Since your mother is sick, just six dollars. I'll just treat it as a good deed. Come on up!"
"Thank you uncle!"
"You're welcome, sit tight!"
"Doctor, may I ask if Xie Qin is in this hospital?"
"Xie Qin? Who are you?"
"She is my mother"
"Well! Wait a minute, I'll check. Oh! She's in Ward 1."
"Thank you, doctor." After saying this, he walked towards No. 1. Just as he was about to open the door, he heard something that made him jump out of his mind.
"The child's father, the doctor said that I can only live for half a year at most. What should we do with our son? I can't bear to leave you. I haven't seen him get a wife or have a grandson yet. Wuwuwu."
Jiang Yige, who was just about to open the door, heard his mother's words and his whole body trembled like an electric shock. He stood there blankly. He couldn't figure out why his mother, who was only in her forties, suddenly couldn't live more than half a year! "No! No.
Yes, I must have heard wrong, I must have heard wrong!" Jiang Yige, with tears streaming down his face, opened the door and rushed in.
"Yige, are you here like this? Didn't you go play with your classmates?"
Ignoring his father's questions, he walked over and pulled his father tightly and asked, "Dad? What's wrong with my mother? Why is she in the hospital? What disease is she suffering from?"
"Your mother is fine. The doctor said she can go home after injecting a few bottles of fluid!"
"No! You lied to me. I just heard it at the door. Why did mom say she could only live for half a year? What happened to her?"
Listening to his son's series of questions, Jiang Yige's father sat weakly on the chair and buried his head deeply in his arms.
Seeing that his father didn't speak, Jiang Yige's mood began to sink little by little. "Is all this true? Didn't I hear it wrong?" Jiang Yige said to himself. After a while, Jiang Yige's father resumed
He raised his head and looked at Jiang Yige.
"My child, you have grown up. There are some things that you have the right to know. Your mother has cancer, and it is in the late stage. The doctor said that there is no cure. She can only live for half a year at most. Alas! It is useless for dad. If we
If your family has money, you can treat her earlier, and your mother won't be like this. It's all your fault, blame your dad!" Jiang Yige's father complained feebly while beating his head.
Hearing his father's answer, Jiang Yige fell silent. He knew that it was actually him who had harmed his mother. If he had not gone to school or had poor grades, his parents would have been much less burdened and would not have saved their money frugally.
Even her mother was reluctant to take out the flowers when she was like this. Jiang Yige, who was devastated, threw herself into her mother's arms.
"Mom! Wuwuwu, why are you hiding it from me? Why are you still hiding it from me after you've already been like this? It's my fault, it's me who has caused you trouble. If I didn't go to school, you wouldn't be like this. That's it.
You won’t save money for me anymore.”
"Silly boy, what are you talking about? How can I blame you?"
"No! It's just because of me. Mom, I won't go to school anymore. I will make money with my father to treat you. You will definitely be cured."
"What nonsense are you talking about? What can you do if you don't go to school? All the expectations of your father and I are on you. You have to listen to your mother and study hard, you know?"
Listening to his mother's words, Jiang Yige did not refute. He was afraid of making his mother angry and affecting her condition. He just sobbed in his mother's arms.
Looking at her son in her arms, Xie Qin burst into tears. She was unwilling to give up. She thought of her youngest daughter who died at a young age and her eldest daughter who had not been heard from for several years. Her heart was filled with deep unwillingness and longing. She
Of the three children, only one is left with her. The eldest daughter has been gone for several years and there is no news. How she hopes she can see her daughter who has been away from home for several years and hug her again.
Make delicious food for her. As long as she can come back, I will not be partial this time and leave all the delicious food to her.
In the past, because the family was poor and the living conditions were not good, almost all the delicious food was left to Jiang Yige and Jiang Yige's sister. Even if it was a piece of meat or a bowl of rice. Because of this, Jiang Yige's sister Jiang Yishi often complained that her parents were partial and only hurt.
Son. But when he was a child, Jiang Yige was also very sensible. He would share any delicious food with his sister.
"Patient No. 1 can be discharged." When Jiang Yige's family of three fell into sadness, the doctor's voice came from the door.
"Doctor, doctor, please save my mother, please."
"Hey, young man, your mother has terminal cancer, and there's nothing we can do about it! Take your mother home, and spend the last time together as a family. Buy more delicious food and drink, and be filial to your mother. Don't
Waste of money at the hospital”
"No! No! I don't believe it. There must be a way, there must be something, please, doctor, please!" Jiang Yige knelt on the ground as he said that.
"Hey! There's nothing we can do!" After saying that, he left the ward.
