However, I don’t want to go to the party tonight because I really don’t want to see the face of the Director of Radio, Film and Television. But now... I hesitated and said, "Well, I'll call you back later.
See if I can evade it."
"No. You have to shirk it. All the classmates want to see you," she said.
"Try your best," I said, and then hung up the phone decisively.
"You are very popular." Yu Min said to me with a smile.
I shook my head and said, "I really don't want to attend such a party, but it's hard to refuse."
"Can you tell me? Who is he?" she asked.
"That's the female classmate we saw yesterday. Her man is the Director of Radio and Television here. I met that man when I was in the provincial capital. At first, he thought I was just a little doctor, so he was very arrogant. There were a few others.
The director is like that too. I'm very tired of people like that. The Director of Radio, Film and Television is treating me tonight, what do you think I'm going to do? He's totally kidnapping me, using my classmates to kidnap me." I said in annoyance.
She immediately laughed and said, "I think the husband of your female classmate is probably a drunkard who doesn't care about drinking."
I looked at her in shock, "What do you mean?"
"I'm sorry, your phone volume was too loud. I heard everything you said on the phone just now. It's obvious that the Director of Radio, Film and Television really wants to get to know you, because your identity is not that of a doctor," she said.
I suddenly realized, thinking that bystanders really know better. But it suddenly occurred to me that Yu Min’s statement may not be correct. I suddenly realized one thing: Luo Hua’s husband must be working on the old city renovation. Because for a county-level
As far as the director is concerned, his level is too low and he cannot hope to be promoted through my relationship. After all, such things are beyond our reach, and may even be as meaningless as hitting mosquitoes with a cannon. The only explanation is that this person
Comrade Director probably hopes to get a share of the old city reconstruction project. Also, Luo Hua has made appointments with so many classmates today. What if they all come to me for help in this matter in the future?
?Should we help or not?
I suddenly felt a headache and decided not to attend such a party today.
But, what kind of reason should I give?
"Can you give me an idea, how can I get rid of what happened tonight?" I asked Yu Min.
"Are you familiar with the leader here? If so, just say that he was invited by the leader today and you don't have time," she said.
I was overjoyed, "This is a good idea." But then I felt it was inappropriate, "But what about tomorrow? What about the day after tomorrow? What if she says to change the time?"
She shook her head, "The only way is for you to leave here as soon as possible."
I couldn't help but smile bitterly, "I've only been back for two days. It's impossible to go back so soon. I finally took half a month's leave. It's a rare opportunity."
"Then there's nothing you can do. You just have to go and participate. Then don't agree to anything, drink as much as you can, and then pretend to be drunk." She said with a smile.
I smiled bitterly again, "That's all I have to do."
Luo Hua called again half an hour later, "How are you? Is it okay?"
"Okay. Where?" I asked.
She immediately told me that it was actually the place where Magistrate Long invited me to dinner last night. She immediately understood: that place should be the best restaurant in our hometown.
"Yu Min, I'm sorry, I can't accompany you today." So I smiled bitterly and said to her beside me.
"It's okay. I thought about it just now. I might as well go back tomorrow. Me being here will make it inconvenient for you. After all, I am not your wife and I am shameful." She said with a sad expression.
I felt very guilty, but I didn’t know how to tell her. What she said was true. I really couldn’t take her to attend the class reunion because she was not my wife after all. This relationship between me and her is
It's shady, especially in a small place like my hometown.
From this I thought: Luo Hua specifically reminded me on the phone that her husband was treating me tonight, and her meaning should be very clear: I hope I won't tell others what I saw her and that man together yesterday.
Although she didn't know that Yu Min and I had seen the scene between her and the man in the cave, she felt uneasy in her heart.
I had no choice but to say: "That's fine. Yu Min, I can't help it. After all, this is my hometown. I hope you can understand."
She immediately laughed and said, "It's nothing. I've already gotten used to it. It seems like this is fate."
Just as I was talking, my phone rang again, and when I saw it, it was actually Lin Yi calling.
"Feng Xiao, are you in your hometown now, right?" he asked me.
"Yeah." I said.
"Maybe you have to come back right away. Take the child with you," he added.
"What happened?" I asked, secretly wondering.
"I heard from the nanny that she saw Xiaonan crying today," he said.
I was overjoyed and shocked at the same time, "Really? Did the nanny see it with her own eyes?"
"I asked her again and again, and she was very sure. So I immediately sent Xiaonan to the hospital. But she is still the same as before, and the doctor said there is no sign of waking up at all. I think, the nanny
It's impossible to lie because there's no need for her to make such a joke," he said.
I suddenly felt sad, "Then how do you think you explain this?"
"I think Xiaonan still feels the surrounding environment. For example, if you leave and the child leaves, she will feel it. Otherwise, how could such a situation happen?" He said, "You are a doctor, you should be better than me.
Do you understand the reason better?"
I was silent for a moment. I thought what he said should be correct. Otherwise, how could we explain Chen Yuan's tears?
"I'll be right back. Bring the kids back." I said.
"Don't be anxious, don't drive too fast. Safety comes first," he said.
"Yeah. I know." I said.
"What happened?" Yu Min asked me.
"Chen Yuan, she...the nanny said she was in tears. I guess she may have had a brief awakening. No, I have to go back right now. Yu Min, you go back to the hotel to pack your things right away. I'll go home and meet my parents.
Say something." I stood up immediately.
I was still riding a tricycle. On the tricycle, I called Sun Lulu and told her that I was about to return to the provincial capital. "You will have to work hard for things here. I hope you will take my father with you and let him get to know him as soon as possible."
Work, I also leave Dong Jie’s affairs to you.”
"Go back quickly. I also hope your wife wakes up as soon as possible. This matter is more important than anything else. Don't worry about things here, I will speed up. I will return to the provincial capital after things here are sorted out. Then
Side projects also require me to deal with some things," she said.
I suddenly remembered another thing, "Lulu, there is one more thing, please send someone to take care of it. There is an old man who is hospitalized in the County People's Hospital. Please ask someone to take care of him."
She asked me the old man's ward and bed number, and I told her immediately, and then said: "This old man is very close to me. He is a wise man. I think if the company can use him, try to arrange a bed for him."
Let’s get a job. You can consider it based on the situation when the time comes.”
"What do you think is a suitable position?" she asked.
"He's too old and can't do specific work. Can you see if you can let him guard the company or something, let him have a fixed job, and then have a bowl of food to eat. Lulu, this old man is really
A wise man, if you have any questions from now on, you can ask him. Personal questions." I said.
"I'm very interested when you say that. Okay, I'll try my best to make arrangements. You drive slower on the road, safety first," she said.
Both she and Lin Yi said to me "safety first". I knew that they were sincerely concerned about me, so I was very touched.
Immediately I called my father, who told me that he was going through the retirement procedures at his work unit and "the leader just signed it today."
"Dad, I'm going back to the provincial capital right away. I'll set off right away." I said, and then told him the situation.
The father said: "Well, then you can leave early. But what about the child? Just ask your mother to go with you. Someone will need to hold the child on the way."
I couldn't hide it anymore, "Dad, someone came with me when I came here. She is staying in a hotel these days."
After being silent for a while, my father asked me, "Is she a woman?"
I said: "Yes. I..."
The father was sighing, "Be careful on the road and don't drive so fast."
"Yeah." I said, suddenly thinking about the old man Hu Mozhi, so I told him about the old man's surgery, and also told me my plan to let the old man work in the company.
The father said: "Let me arrange it. You did this right. But have you ever thought about it? Can you take care of all the poor people? You kid has such a good heart. I'm not saying you shouldn't do it.
But have you ever thought about this matter? If rumors about this matter get out, what will you do if everyone comes to you in the future? Also, if you do too many good things like this, where will you put the face of the county leaders?
?”
"Anyway, I'm leaving right away and I won't care about the future." I said with a smile.
"You don't care, but the company has to take care of it? Now that one person has been arranged, what will happen if other people in difficulty come to the company and ask for work arrangements? You, aren't you leaving all the problems to us?" said the father.
I didn't expect that doing good deeds might bring so much trouble. "Dad, what do you think we should do?"
"What should I do? You have already paid for his medical expenses, forget about work. From now on, you can build a nursing home in your hometown after making money. This is a matter of accumulation of evil deeds. Either you have to do it to the end, otherwise it's better.
Things could turn out to be bad," my father said.
I deeply agree.
But Luo Hua was very dissatisfied. She thought I was lying to her. I said, "Believe it or not, it's up to you. I'm really in a hurry and have to go back soon. Please tell my old classmates and let me apologize to them."
I will apologize to everyone when I come back next time."
"With your absence, today's party has to be cancelled. Feng Xiao, you didn't run away on purpose because you looked down on us old classmates, right?" she said.
I felt very unhappy, but I felt that there was no need to be acquainted with her, so I explained to her politely: "I took half a month's leave this time. If something urgent happens, do I need to go back so soon? You do the same.
, isn’t it just a meal? It’s not like going up mountains of swords and going down seas of fire. It’s so serious!”
Then she laughed and said, "Okay, my husband and I will come to visit you in the provincial capital in a few days."
