Xue Huan, wearing a white coat, hurried over and shouted apologetically: "Brother-in-law, Sister Ling! I'm sorry, a critically ill patient suddenly came in in the evening. I was so busy that I just returned to the office."
"It's okay." Xue Ling smiled: "After the intravenous drip, my head is no longer dizzy and I fell asleep just now."
Cheng Tianyuan turned around and poured a glass of water and handed it to Xue Huan.
"Don't worry, drink some water first. When I came to the emergency room earlier, your sister called your cell phone. I also told her that you might not be on duty tonight, so I better not look for you. Look, I still have to let you run.
One trip.”
"Thank you, brother-in-law." Xue Huan smiled bitterly: "What you said is too polite. We are our own family. If something happens to your uncle, you should tell me immediately. Even if I am not here, I can drive here in ten minutes.
.”
He seemed to be very thirsty. After drinking a glass of water, he turned around and said, "I'm going to see my uncle."
"No need." Xue Ling whispered: "The doctor said that the old man was too excited for a moment, and his blood pressure suddenly rose, which made his head a little unbearable. He had taken a nerve-soothing medicine earlier, and he was fine. As long as he finished the IV drip and got some
Pediatric medicine, I can go back early tomorrow morning."
Xue Huan was relieved and took them to sit on the bench outside.
"Why is my uncle so excited all of a sudden? His blood pressure is a bit high, but it's usually within control. Did he eat anything strange in the past two days? Did he eat a lot of fatty food?"
"...No." Xue Ling and Cheng Tianyuan looked at each other, with different expressions on their faces, and they didn't know how to explain it.
Xue Huan couldn't help but ask: "Sister, isn't it convenient for me to tell you?"
"No." Xue Ling didn't answer and asked instead: "Your parents got home in the evening, did you know that?"
"I received a call from them at noon, saying that the train tickets were canceled and replaced by air tickets." Xue Huan explained: "I originally planned to pick them up, but they didn't want to, and let me work on my own, and they could just take a taxi back."
Cheng Tianyuan explained: "I went to pick them up."
"Oh?" Xue Huan smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work, brother-in-law."
Cheng Tianyuan shook his head: "My working hours are not fixed. I can leave at any time. It just takes a little effort."
Xue Ling sighed and said: "Why did your parents come back so soon? You should also know the reason. When my father-in-law heard that your brother and your sister-in-law were getting divorced, he couldn't stand it for a while, his heartbeat was abnormal, and his blood pressure suddenly increased.
, his head suddenly started to hurt. A Yuan and I didn’t dare to delay, so we rushed him to the hospital.”
Xue Huan's eyes flashed slightly, and he sighed helplessly.
"...I'm sorry for making everyone worry and sad."
Cheng Tianyuan had a sullen face and whispered: "It's not your fault. What do you need to apologize for? I heard from your dad that your brother and A Fang had already discussed it among themselves last night and both agreed to divorce.
I will go to the Civil Affairs Bureau for divorce in the next two days."
"I don't know the specific situation." Xue Huan shook his head helplessly: "My father said that my brother wanted custody of Xiaohan, and my sister-in-law agreed. I...I don't know how their marriage can go smoothly.
It has come to this point. In fact, I was also wrong. If I hadn't suddenly wanted to borrow so much money from my brother, my sister-in-law and my brother wouldn't have been so tense."
"Wrong." Xue Ling frowned and explained: "If they really get along so well, no one can affect them. Whether things will deteriorate or not depends on internal factors. External factors can only affect them at most. If they live well
If it goes on, there is no need for divorce. At most, you can only count it as an external cause. It has reached this point due to various reasons, and it is not that simple."
Over the years, she has witnessed all kinds of conflicts and quarrels between Xue Heng and Cheng Tianfang, and eventually they gradually separated from each other and became estranged from each other and their family.
Coming to this point, there is actually nothing surprising or surprising.
"It's just that people of my generation don't have the concept of divorce. Even if they hear that someone is getting divorced, they don't think about it. They don't expect that their daughter will get divorced, so they can't accept it for a while."
Cheng Tianyuan echoed: "On the surface, the marriage belongs to the two of them. They were the ones who wanted to get married in the first place, and they are the ones who want a divorce now. Others can't help them make the decision. Don't blame yourself too much. This is true.
It has nothing to do with you."
Xue Huan sighed quietly, feeling full of fatigue.
"I...the past two or three years have been fulfilling and challenging according to others. Only I know how tired I am. I am so tired that I don't even have time to take a breath or take a break. I have too much time to take care of myself and I don't have time to take care of myself."
I don’t have time to care about other people. Not to mention my parents, my brother and sister-in-law, even my son... I can’t take care of them. Fortunately, I have uncles and aunts and your family over the years, otherwise Xiao Yue wouldn’t even know
What will it become?"
Xue Ling said warmly: "Help if you can. Otherwise, why did we decide to live so close to each other in the first place? Right? Don't think too much. If you are poor, you can take care of yourself, and if you are rich, you can help the world. If you are not able to take care of too much now, then take care of it first.
Keep yourself."
Xue Huan was silent for a moment, then sighed tiredly.
"Sister, I guess... I can't take care of myself anymore."
Xue Ling raised her eyebrows and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong?"
Xue Huan raised his head, looked into her eyes, and whispered: "Old Ding has taken away too much of the pharmaceutical factory's funds... We can't turn over the money in the past two months, we can't buy raw materials, and we can't finish the orders."
"What's going on?" Xue Ling asked: "I see that the factory has been operating, why is there a sudden shortage of funds? What is this friend of yours doing? If a factory does not have enough funds to operate, if something goes wrong in any link, it will be very difficult.
It’s easy to be completely paralyzed.”
Xue Huan shook his head helplessly and explained: "We made profits both the year before last and last year, and they were very generous. In addition to leaving some to buy medicinal materials and pay wages to pay rent, the rest slowly paid off the loan. By the end of last year, there was only about 20,000 yuan left.
We paid it back. We liquidated it during the New Year and paid back another three million, and the rest was given to workers and leaders as bonuses. As long as we pay back all the loans we took when building the factory, we will have a bright future. Unfortunately...Old
Ding's other factory had a big problem. Someone was counterfeiting his trademark and medicines, resulting in fakes on the market. Lao Ding filed a complaint with the relevant departments, and went to the news and TV station to make a formal clarification. Who knows, it backfired, and many consumers were dissatisfied.
He dares to buy medicines from this brand again because he doesn’t know which ones are genuine and which ones are fake. Over the past year or so, orders have disappeared, returns have been made and troubles have made him lose a lot of hair. He has no choice but to do so.
Now, he can only draw funds from here to fill the loopholes there. The factory here is barely stable, and with him tossing it back and forth like this, the factory is in danger."
He scratched his hair in annoyance and slowly smoothed it out.
"I've been having a hard time recently...yesterday I kept bargaining with the medicinal material dealers and said good things. I hope they can delay payment as long as possible for the sake of long-term cooperation. I was almost dry talking."
Cheng Tianyuan frowned slightly and asked: "The hospital is also very busy, right? You are busy at both ends, so you need to pay more attention to your health and not get too exhausted."
"They are all busy."
My students and old acquaintances have always taken good care of me. Without their secret support, I would not have been able to run both ways."
