It has been almost a year since I returned to Chengdu. Zhao Shanyu and I walked out of Chengdu Station carrying a lot of things.
"I haven't been back for a long time." Zhao Shanyu stood next to me, smiling and looking at the street outside the station.
"Well, let's go back and see my dad." We walked to the street outside the station, hailed a taxi, and rushed home.
Sitting in the taxi, looking at the streets outside the window, Chengdu has not changed much.
Soon Zhao Shanyu and I arrived at the gate of the community. Zhao Shanyu and I got out of the car and went back to the door. When I opened the door, it was a mess inside, and my dad was not at home either.
I took out my phone and called my dad.
"Hey, Dad, where are you? I'm back." I asked.
"What? Are you really back? I'm at Qingyang District Hospital. Come over here." My dad didn't say a few words there before he started coughing again.
"Daughter-in-law, let's go. My dad is at Qingyang District People's Hospital. He may not be feeling well." I put my things at the door, then turned around and walked out with Zhao Shanyu.
I am most familiar with Qingyang District Hospital. I grew up in this hospital.
Zhao Shanyu and I walked for more than twenty minutes and finally arrived at the entrance of the hospital.
We walked to the door of the hospital, and a nurse at the front desk shouted to me: "Fengzi, you're here to see your dad, right? I haven't seen you for a long time. You're getting stronger. I heard your dad said you became a policeman."
"Aunt Li." I shouted to Aunt Li with a smile. Aunt Li is in her forties. When I first arrived at the hospital, I was just a big kid. When I was a kid, my dad was busy. Whenever I came to the hospital, these nurses would take care of me.
Playing with me, the nurses who raised me up either stopped working as nurses or went to other hospitals. The only one who still stayed at Qingyang District Hospital was Aunt Li.
"This is my girlfriend, Zhao Shanyu." I pointed at Zhao Shanyu and introduced her to Aunt Li.
Aunt Li smiled and nodded: "Yes, my girlfriend is quite beautiful."
"Aunt Li, which ward is my dad in? Is he seriously ill?" I asked with a smile.
Aunt Li was smiling at first, but when she heard me mention this, her face became a little stiff. She smiled and said, "Go and see for yourself."
"What's wrong? Is a cold like this?" I asked.
"It seems like your dad didn't tell you? You can go and ask yourself, Aunt Li won't tell you." Aunt Li said, "The third room in Area A on the 5th floor, go and check it yourself."
"Well, thank you." Seeing Aunt Li's appearance, I pulled Zhao Shanyu and ran to the fifth floor.
I ran to the door of the house and opened the door. My dad was lying on the hospital bed. His face was pale and his hair was gone. He was reading a book.
"Dad, what's wrong with you?" I walked to the bed and sat down, grabbed my dad's hand, looked at him and asked.
My dad forced a smile and said, "It's nothing, it's just mid-stage liver cancer."
When I heard the word liver cancer, my head exploded with a bang. Liver cancer? How could my father get cancer when he is fine?
I looked at Dad's pale face and felt a pain in my heart.
I still remember when I was a child, when I was seven years old, I had a high fever. My dad carried me to Qingyang District Hospital in the middle of the night and fell several times on the way.
I still remember that my dad always told me that he would take me to the amusement park, but he always said that he was busy and had no time.
I remember that my dad was not at home every Chinese New Year and worked overtime in the hospital every time.
Although he has not been with me on many important holidays over the years, I know that he loves me very much.
"Dad." I covered my mouth, feeling my eyes sore and tears streaming down my face.
My dad smiled and said, "Why are you crying? I just have mid-stage liver cancer. Maybe it can be cured. Don't worry."
"Dad, you have been a doctor for so many years, and you know best." I gritted my teeth and stood up, wiping the tears from the corners of my eyes: "Dad, don't worry, you will be fine."
I always ask for things from you, but never say thank you. It wasn’t until I grew up that I understood that it’s not easy for you. Every time I leave, I always pretend to be relaxed, smile and say go back, turn around and have tears in my eyes... Time passes slowly.
Come on, don't let you grow old again. I am willing to use everything I have in exchange for your years to be strong and your father to be strong throughout your life. Whatever I can do for you, accept my insignificant concern.
Suddenly the song "Father" by Chopstick Brothers appeared in my mind. I had heard that many people cried when listening to this song. I didn't feel it at the time, but now I want to cry.
"Dad, you will be fine." After I said that, I took Zhao Shanyu's hand and walked out of the ward. I stood in the corridor and said to Zhao Shanyu: "Daughter-in-law, please save my dad. You can do it."
"
Zhao Shanyu looked at me calmly and asked, "Do you want me to turn my uncle into a zombie? Make him immortal too."
"Well, how can it be cured in the middle stage of cancer? Even if one or two cases are cured, it's just a miracle. Wife, please." I took a deep breath and looked at Zhao Shanyu.
Zhao Shanyu shook his head: "Fengzi, please calm down. It is normal for people to grow old, get sick and die..."
"No, my dad has always been in good health. Why did he suddenly get sick? It must be because of my five shortcomings and three deficiencies. This is not a normal birth, old age, illness and death. My dad will definitely be fine if he lives for a hundred years." I shook my head vigorously. I am now
I don't even know what I'm thinking, my head is in a daze.
"Hey, even if you want to turn your uncle into a zombie, this is the last resort. It's still early. You should call Hong Zhuo first and ask him if there is anything he can do." Zhao Shanyu came over and hugged me and said: "
He has medical books, so he will definitely have other ways to save his uncle."
By the way, there is also that boy Hong Zhuo.
Ordinary methods can't save my dad, but that guy Hong Zhuo might be able to. You have to know that medical books are written by immortals from all directions, so there is no guarantee that there will be a way to cure my dad.
I quickly picked up the phone and called Hong Zhuo.
"Hong Zhuo? Don't talk nonsense. Is there any way you can cure liver cancer in the middle stage?" I waited for Hong Zhuo to answer the phone and asked directly.
Hong Zhuo felt a little strange there and asked: "What's wrong?"
"My dad has liver cancer. I really have no choice but to call you." I tried to calm myself down, but there was still some choke in my words.
"Cancer? Fengzi, I'll come to Chengdu to see you soon, don't worry."
"You want to come over? Well, Qingyang District Hospital, hurry up." As soon as I heard Hong Zhuo's tone, I felt a lot more relaxed. If he couldn't help it, maybe he would have told me directly, since he said he wanted to come over to see him.
Look, it means he should have a solution.
After I hung up the phone, Zhao Shanyu asked, "What did he say?"
"He said he wanted to come over and have a look." After I said that, I ran back to the ward. My dad smiled and said, "You kid, don't cry like an old woman. Be energetic."
