The door opened, Secretary Chen lowered his voice: "Mr. Xue, your best friend Xiao Jiaxue is here."
Xue Ling was stunned and turned the pen in her hand.
"Why didn't she come in? You stopped her?"
"No." Secretary Chen whispered embarrassedly: "She...she came in a wheelchair. There is a small threshold at the door of your office, so you shouldn't be able to get in."
Xue Ling raised her eyebrows in surprise and threw down the pen.
"What's wrong with her? Why did she suddenly get in a wheelchair?"
She hurriedly left the seat, walked around the desk, and walked out quickly.
I saw Xiao Jiaxue, who hadn't seen for many days, sitting in an automatic wheelchair, with a fat big hand controlling the remote control. When she saw her coming out, she smiled at her with a sad and helpless look.
Xue Ling was startled and rushed over quickly.
"Jiaxue, what's wrong with you?"
Xiao Jiaxue laughed bitterly and said, "...I suddenly had an acute stroke a while ago."
What?!
Xue Ling glared at him in disbelief: "How is it possible?! You are not fifty years old yet!"
"Because I'm too fat." Xiao Jiaxue whispered: "Hypertension and high blood lipids are very annoying. I watched the TV halfway through that day, and suddenly I couldn't drink water in my mouth and fell on the sofa. Fortunately, my husband came over after a while and saw that
After something was wrong, I quickly called 120. I stayed in the hospital for more than half a month and finally got better. I couldn't breathe when I walked these days, so I simply used this wheelchair."
Xue Ling frowned and said, "Let's go, I'll push you to the lounge next door."
After a while, Secretary Chen brought a plate of fruit.
Xiao Jiaxue slowly ate the orange and explained: "I'm here to tell you. Last time you asked a friend to help us get all the adoption materials. Unfortunately, I can't take care of myself now, so I have to withdraw the application."
Because the husband is not of his nationality, the procedure for adopting children for the two is much more complicated than that of others. He was stuck again and again and could not pass.
Until a while ago, Xue Ling asked a friend he knew to help and finally helped them get the materials ready and handed them over. Unexpectedly, before the child was adopted, he suddenly suffered a stroke and had to give up for the time being.
Xue Ling nodded slowly: "Please take care of yourself first."
Xiao Jiaxue had red eyes and whispered: "When I was lying on the bed, I could not do anything except crying. My mother and my dad came and cried and called me. I kept crying and feeling like I was
It's like dying. Ling Ling, let me tell you... I've never been so scared in my life. That feeling is so scary... I want to cry when I think about it."
"Don't be afraid." Xue Ling comforted her warmly: "Now that medical technology is developed, you will be fine soon. By the way, do you need me to introduce a doctor? I'll ask Ah Huan to introduce you to an authoritative doctor in related majors."
"Yeah." Xiao Jiaxue choked up: "This is another reason why I came here specially today."
Xue Ling couldn't help asking: "When you fell ill, why didn't you let me know?"
"You are dizzy every day, and there are still several children to take care of." Xiao Jiaxue shook her head: "How can you run around? Besides, you are not a doctor, and you can't help even if you go there, you will only worry more.
And fear, it’s better not to do it.”
Xue Ling nodded: "I'll contact Ahuan in a while and report your name and mobile phone number to him."
"Thank you." Xiao Jiaxue suddenly laughed, "I always seem to be causing trouble for you..."
"What are you saying?" Xue Ling looked at her angrily and said, "Do you care about this between friends? You helped me less before? Introduce me to the translator, remit money from time to time, and help me go to the post office.
Are those not busy?"
"It's been decades!" Xiao Jiaxue narrowed her eyes and turned to melancholy: "It's decades in a blink of an eye... it's too fast... it's too fast! Ling Ling, I'm looking at myself in the mirror now,
I can't react a little - I can't accept myself now. I seem to be really old."
"Where can it be!" Xue Ling smiled: "You are just so fat, you won't be old. You are not fifty years old yet! If you are an old man now, how can you let those old men in their seventies and eighties bear the favor, right?"
Xiao Jiaxue smiled helplessly: "I know my destiny at fifty, and I should accept my destiny."
Seeing that her condition was really bad, Xue Ling couldn't help asking: "Where is your husband? Why didn't he come out with you?"
"He went to work." Xiao Jiaxue explained: "He took care of me...but he still had to make money! I have applied to my unit to retire early. The leader knew about my situation early in the morning and agreed very happily. I can do so in the future
I'm waiting to get my pension and live. He has a few years left to retire, and in his case, he will usually be rehired. I guess he won't be able to retire within ten years."
"It's good to retire." Xue Ling said softly: "This way you can keep your health at home with peace of mind, and you don't have to worry about work."
Xiao Jiaxue laughed and asked, "When will you retire? I see you, born to work hard, I guess you are not willing to retire if you want to retire."
"It's almost done." Xue Ling explained: "I'm working hard to train successors now, and I believe I can get into a semi-retreat state in no time. The summer vacation is coming to an end, and I plan to take a few days off and take the elderly and children to the summer resort for vacation.
Xue Ling shook his head: "He is still studying and it is impossible to graduate in a few years. There are several department managers around me who are pretty good, and there is also a new assistant - Zheng Duoduo. He is Uncle Zheng's youngest son, and he majors in aviation.
After he came, I found that he had good potential. Young people learn quickly and adapt quickly, which immediately reduced my workload. I plan to focus on cultivating him to help me manage 'Tianshu'."
"That's right!" Xiao Jiaxue couldn't help but tease: "Do you really think you can do it for the rest of your life until the moment of death? You can have appropriate jobs, but it should be reduced slowly. Now the competition in enterprises is so fierce, you
No matter how powerful it is and how good the concept is, it cannot continue to be better, right? How can the young man appear? You, you still have to make a place for the young man after all."
"Of course, of course." Xue Ling smiled and said, "No matter how old a hero is, he will grow old, and no matter how sharp a knife is, he will be blunted one day. I don't think I am so powerful, nor do I think I can be powerful for the rest of my life. Young people
Good energy and novel concepts. Even if they cannot make great contributions to society for the time being and succeed immediately, they will sooner or later replace us, replacing all of us old guys. Only when talented people emerge in the country will the society have great development
.”
Xiao Jiaxue gave a thumbs up and whispered: "This mentality is the right one. I'm so afraid that you will always think that you can stand up and last for the rest of your life. Even if you can continue to make money in the second half of your life, I still hope that you will retreat if you should.
Don't let yourself be too tired. People, except for more than ten years of ignorance, have been aged for more than ten years, are busy studying and growing up, family and children and elderly people, and are busy making money. How many years can they have
Have fun? Right?"
"Very right." Xue Ling narrowed his eyes and praised: "Your words are full of philosophy! The first time I heard you say such a clear word."
Xiao Jiaxue smiled softly: "Because I almost died, no matter how hard it is, I probably won't have a chance."
