Xue Ling felt frightened and sad for a while, and was a little unable to react.
"Sister Cai...is in hospital now?
When can I be discharged from the hospital?"
Xiao Liao shook his head slowly: "I probably won't be able to leave the hospital this winter.
The doctor said that if my mother's energy is good, she hopes she can survive until spring next year.
If she can't hold on, it will only be a matter of these few months."
Oh my god!!! Xue Ling was stunned in the cold wind with an ashen face.
Xiao Liao's eyes were slightly red and he whispered: "Auntie, you don't have to worry too much.
My mother has always been optimistic and gentle, and has a great attitude.
She is happy every day now, playing chess with my dad, reading books and watching TV together, and going to the flower shop to play with flowers at noon when the weather is nice.
The doctor said that my mother's mentality and mood are very good, and she hopes there will be a miracle."
Xue Ling sighed and asked: "The doctor said... there is nothing we can do?"
"It's late."
Xiao Liao explained: "As long as there is some hope, my father and I will never give up.
My mother is very tolerant, saying that she picked up her life more than 20 years ago, and she is satisfied enough to live for so many more years.
She said that at that time, it was too late to say goodbye, and we hadn't even started a family yet. If we really left, there would definitely be endless unwillingness and worry in her heart.
Now she has become a grandmother and has been in her old age for about twenty years. She is extremely satisfied and sees things very openly."
Xue Ling couldn't help but let out a long sigh: "Despite this, I still can't bear to part with you."
"Yeah..." Xiao Liao smiled bitterly and swallowed: "How can I bear it! My dad always cries secretly these days, and he doesn't dare to let my mom see it.
My mother told him that we would still be husband and wife in the next life, but they would only be separated for a short time.
Let him live well and stay with us. Anyway, the next life will be long.
My dad has lost a lot of weight and his face is not very good-looking, but as long as my mom is awake, he always pretends to be cheerful, chatting and laughing with her, and does not dare to show any sadness.
My brother and I are the same, we pretend to be happy every time we go to see her."
Xue Ling sniffed and whispered: "Sister Cai is a very optimistic person. She doesn't want to bring you sadness and sorrow."
"it is known."
Xiao Liao quietly wiped away the tears from his eyes: "But...it might not be sad."
Xue Ling couldn't help but ask: "Which hospital does Sister Cai live in?
What department?
I'll go see her this afternoon."
"No."
Xiao Liao lowered his voice: "Auntie, my mother doesn't let us tell others about her hospitalization.
She does not need to be hospitalized every day, but considering her unstable condition, we have always insisted on keeping her hospitalized.
When it’s warm at noon, my dad will drive with her to the flower shop.
When you have free time, why not go to the flower shop and pretend to meet her by chance?
My mother will definitely be very happy."
"Uh-huh."
Xue Ling understood it immediately and said, "I will pretend not to know anything."
Xiao Liao nodded gratefully: "Thank you."
Xue Ling patted his arm and said warmly: "You are still young, and there is still a lot of work waiting for you to complete.
But you only have one mother, so don’t miss the time you spend with her.
I’ll give you a long vacation, and you take your parents on a trip to the south and visit your old place—” “No.”
Xiao Liao thanked her and explained: "My mother now has to undergo acupuncture treatment for one or two hours every day and cannot leave for a long time.
When her condition improves and the flowers bloom in spring, I will take a long vacation to take my parents back to Rongcheng and go to the beach for a vacation.
" "OK."
Xue Ling said cheerfully: "I can invite you anytime."
Xiao Liao's eyes flashed slightly, and he suddenly hesitated.
"Auntie, there is something I...I want to ask you for."
Xue Ling raised her eyebrows and asked, "What's the matter?
Just say it."
Xiao Liao smiled bitterly and frowned in embarrassment.
"Please tell Mr. Xue Zhilan quietly about my mother's matter."
Xue Ling was slightly stunned, then nodded slightly.
"……no problem.
After all, they are old friends and they should let him know."
"No."
Xiao Liao shook his head: "That's not the reason.
I just feel... my mother seems to want to see him, but she seems to be very hesitant.
If you can, please help me with this."
Xue Ling understood and said, "When it gets sunny and warm in two days, I will take Uncle Zhilan to the flower shop to buy some flowers."
Xiao Liao grinned widely and nodded repeatedly.
"Okay, that's settled then.
When my parents go to the flower shop, I will send you a message.
If you look at the schedule, I know you are very busy and are not in a hurry."
Xue Ling answered well.
Originally, she wanted to go to the group, but Xue Ling felt a little tired, maybe because she was sad, and couldn't feel energetic, so she simply went home.
After Chen Min had a good sleep, he felt much better. Xiao Huzi drove him to the hospital.
Cheng Huanran only took one morning off. After lunch, he urged his grandfather to take medicine and hurriedly drove to work.
Xue's father's illness has recovered, and Xue Zhilan's cold has almost recovered. The two of them sat by the sun, played chess, and chatted happily.
Wang Xiaoxiao, with a big belly, accompanied Xue's mother and Liu Ying to do simple stretching exercises in the living room.
The young people's vitality infected the old people, who laughed and chanted the beats, swung around in a hurry, and laughed from time to time.
Xue Ling smiled slightly, not wanting to disturb the old man's joy, so he quietly went back to his room and took a nap.
Last night, he was busy going in and out, and was frightened twice. Coupled with today's bad news, Xue Ling felt a little unbearable, so he hid in the bed and fell asleep.
It wasn't until evening that Cheng Tianyuan came back to wake her up.
“Daughter-in-law, it’s almost dark, why are you still sleeping?
Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
Xue Ling was a little confused and whispered: "No."
Cheng Tianyuan went into the bathroom to wash his hands and explained: "Tonight, Xiao Huzi will stay vigil in the hospital, and Ahu and I will come back with Chen Min.
By the way, how is Cuiliu?"
"Um...I don't know."
Xue Ling smiled bitterly: "I'm so busy... But I asked Xiao Tong to take leave and stay with her in the room."
Cheng Tianyuan said: "It's okay, as long as Xiao Tong stays with her.
We don’t have much contact with her, and you don’t know her well either.”
"I'll go over and take a look later."
Xue Ling climbed up and whispered: "Let her go to the dining room with us to eat.
It would be helpful for her and Amin if there were more people and more excitement.
The group of people chatted happily and they were not too embarrassed."
Cheng Tianyuan replied: "Okay.
If she wants to come, then let her.
If you don't want to, don't force it.
What happened last night was hidden from a few old people, so don’t expose it all at once and frighten them."
Xue Ling put on her nightgown and said, "They are all people who have survived the storm, so there is no need to worry about this."
At this moment, there was a hasty knock on the door! “Auntie! Auntie!”
