"Husband, how is the third child?" Wang Xiaoxiao asked anxiously, "Are you still awake?"
"Alas..." Xue Yang sighed deeply and slumped down on the sofa, not wanting to move at all.
Wang Xiaoxiao sighed and brought a bowl of hot soup over.
"Drink something to warm yourself up."
Xue Yang thanked him, took a few sips, and then held the bowl in a daze.
"What time is it now? According to the lunar calendar?"
Wang Xiaoxiao replied: "Xiaohan is gone."
"It's too cold." Xue Yang frowned: "It's really cold in the Imperial Capital this year... I always feel that my hands and feet are cold and my whole body is weak. I don't even seem to have the strength to walk."
Wang Xiaoxiao took a pillow and stuffed it next to him.
"The weather is indeed cold, but the heating at home is enough, so it's not that cold."
Xue Yang leaned on the pillow and squinted his eyes.
"Maybe... I'm just cold."
Wang Xiaoxiao felt a sore nose and advised: "Don't worry too much... The third child will wake up."
"...Is it possible?" Xue Yang asked with a choked voice: "It's been so long, why doesn't he wake up? There are so many experts and professors, why can't they wake him up? Tiantian said that the data is good,
The data is good—as long as he wakes up, he’ll be fine! But why doesn’t he wake up?! It’s really maddening!”
Wang Xiaoxiao patted his arm lightly and whispered: "Don't be like this. Everyone feels bad right now and is extremely anxious. Once you can't hold back, everyone will collapse along with you."
"Wife..." Xue Yang hugged her waist and threw his head into her arms, "You said - the third child will wake up - right? Right?"
"Yes! I will definitely wake up!" Wang Xiaoxiao replied seriously.
Xue Yang murmured: "He finally got through the dangerous period, but he couldn't wake up. The doctor said that if he doesn't wake up, he...may become a vegetative state."
"No, no." Wang Xiaoxiao shook his head in fear: "The third child - he will definitely wake up."
Xue Yang sighed helplessly: "Aqing is looking for a doctor every day, and he is looking for him like crazy. My mother talks to him every day, and we take turns accompanying him, encouraging him, and cheering him up. But he...he just falls asleep like that.
, motionless, not even the slightest reaction to us. Mom was almost exhausted... I heard that he passed the critical period, and everyone became happy. I always felt that he was fine and would wake up soon, and then he
He recovered and went home. But even though the dangerous period has passed, he just won't wake up! Call him, talk to him, what do you mean by scolding him - he just doesn't respond!"
Wang Xiaoxiao gently stroked his hair and comforted him: "Don't be like this, you will wake up soon. Didn't the doctor tell you? It can't be that fast. It takes time to defeat the disease and use willpower to win this battle. Old
Three, he is very strong, he will definitely wake up."
Xue Yang hugged her waist tightly and rubbed his head.
"Wife, you are the only one who has the most confidence now. You stay at home and go to the hospital every two days. We are different from you. We are always facing the unresponsive third child... and are about to collapse! I
Dad made more than a dozen calls a day, calling my mother, eldest brother and me, even Xiao Huzi. We didn’t dare to tell the truth. We all said in the same voice that the data was getting better day by day, and we would wait for the third child to wake up.
It’s okay. My dad is tired of hearing that, but he still has to beat him, every day. In fact, he knows very well... Even if the third child wakes up, his head may not be normal. He may become a stupid person.
The third child... what will we do then? No one dares to give up. My mother has repeatedly emphasized that even if he is stupid for the rest of his life, she will definitely take good care of him. But as long as I think about the third child if he is really stupid... my heart is screaming.
It hurts! Ooooh!"
With tears in her eyes, Wang Xiaoxiao patted his shoulder and slowly calmed his emotions.
For more than half a month, he would stay until late at night almost every night before coming back.
Unable to bear it any longer, his mentality collapsed again.
Among the several brothers and sisters, he and the fourth child are the most expressive of their emotions. In front of relatives and friends, they can express whatever they think, laugh when they want to laugh, and cry without hesitation if they want to cry.
The third child almost couldn't survive that night, he cried.
Now he still can't wake up. The longer he waits, the worse the third child's condition becomes. After waiting and waiting, he can no longer hold back anymore.
well!
Wang Xiaoxiao coaxed: "You are tired too, why don't you go take a hot bath and go to sleep first. Maybe when you wake up, your mother will call and say there is good news - the third child is awake!"
Xue Yang was indeed very tired, but he didn't want to move at all.
"Honey, what if the third child really...can't wake up? Someone quietly suggested to me that if the third child wakes up and is a fool, not only will we not be able to accept it, but the third child himself will not want him to become a fool.
A fool who doesn't even have basic thinking ability. In that case, it's better not to bother and let him sleep peacefully until the last moment of his life. At least he still has dignity and dignity. I... I don't know how to answer."
Wang Xiaoxiao frowned, not knowing how to answer.
Xue Yang sighed and explained: "The other person is a good friend of mine, and he also knows Lao San... He has no ill intentions, but he feels very sorry for Lao San. He said that Lao San is such an excellent and beautiful artist, so instead of letting him
If he is living in a daze and stupidity, it is better to let him sleep peacefully and not to stimulate him to wake up. Our family's human and financial resources are enough for him to sleep well until he grows old."
"You - what did you say?" Wang Xiaoxiao said incoherently: "How did you answer the other party?"
Xue Yang shook his head: "I didn't answer, I can't answer. It's not that I don't answer, it's that I really can't answer."
This was a too heavy and heavy topic that he didn't want to touch, let alone face.
Wang Xiaoxiao sobbed softly and whispered: "Originally... I thought the data would get better day by day. I... I guessed that the third child would definitely wake up in the next few days. I have been in a good mood these two days, and I made an appointment in the evening
The maintenance staff came to make a hydration package. You-why did you suddenly say that again?!"
"Alas!" Xue Yang took a deep breath and said: "Although we can't let go of the third child, we still have to be mentally prepared. We are not children, and we have to have more comprehensive and thoughtful considerations. If he can't wake up, what will happen to him?
What should we do if we are in a vegetative state? What should we do if we are lucky enough to wake up and become a fool with unsound intelligence? Although these two consequences are cruel, we still have to face them... we still have to face them.
"
"Don't choose." Wang Xiaoxiao shook his head: "You are not the third child, nor are you parents, so you can't choose for the third child."
Xue Yang was a little confused and asked: "You mean - just wait?"
"Otherwise?" Wang Xiaoxiao replied decisively: "Continue the treatment, no matter what the final result is - we accept it!"
