In the evening, Cheng Tianyuan drove his father and two children home, and then sent his mother-in-law back to the suburban factory.
Not wanting to delay, he hurriedly turned the car around and returned to the hospital.
There was already an elevator at the Central Hospital, and the obstetrics and gynecology department was moved to the fifth floor. Seeing that no one was taking the elevator on the first floor, he simply got in and went straight to the fifth floor.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I arrived at the door of the ward, I saw a teenage boy standing outside the ward with his head peeping out. It seemed that he had been standing there for a long time.
Cheng Tianyuan walked forward slowly.
It turned out that the little guy was staring at the salt and pepper pork ribs on the small table in the ward, swallowing his saliva from time to time.
My daughter-in-law was leaning on the wooden sofa, with one hand on her big belly, and she was sleeping deeply.
Cheng Tianyuan's footsteps quickly caught the little guy's attention. He was startled and started to run away in a hurry - but was held back by Cheng Tianyuan.
He was very scared. He stared at Cheng Tianyuan timidly and whispered: "I...I...I didn't steal it!"
Cheng Tianyuan smiled: "My kid wants to eat ribs, right? I'll give you a few."
"No...thank you." The little guy swallowed his saliva, reluctantly glanced at the ribs a few more times, then buried his head and turned to leave.
"Wait!" Cheng Tianyuan grabbed his little wrist and found that the little guy was very thin.
He quickly walked into the house, wrapped up the remaining salt and pepper pork ribs, and handed it to the little guy, "Here you go."
The little guy stared in disbelief, swallowed his saliva, but did not dare to accept it.
Cheng Tianyuan said warmly: "My wife is already full, and we can't finish these. We don't have to put them here, and the rest will be thrown away, so it will be a waste. If you don't mind, just help us eat."
The little guy smiled in surprise, said "thank you" to Cheng Tianyuan, turned around and ran away.
Cheng Tianyuan frowned slightly when he saw several patches on his clothes and a big hole in the back of his butt.
It is rare to see someone wearing clothes with so many patches in the imperial capital. It is conceivable that the little guy's family situation is very ordinary.
He did not linger, quietly entered the ward and closed the door.
Although this is the last room and no one is walking around, you still have to be careful. I guess my wife got sleepy just sitting there, so she forgot to close the door.
There are everyone in the hospital and it's very messy. No matter what, you have to be careful.
The next morning, Cheng Tianyuan woke up early. After washing his face, he poured a glass of warm water for Xue Ling to drink.
Xue Ling still slept sitting up last night, waking up and falling asleep again and again. His sleep was very restless, with blue-grey patches under his eyes.
Cheng Tianyuan whispered distressedly: "It's still a little early. I'll go out to buy some breakfast. You can rest for a while. It'll be a while if you can sleep for a while."
Xue Ling nodded, leaned back, and fell asleep again without realizing it.
He opened the door, closed it quietly, and was about to leave - but was startled by a small figure in the corner.
It turned out to be the little boy from last night.
He opened his eyes wide and lit up the moment he saw Cheng Tianyuan, and he summoned up the courage to speak: "...Hello, uncle."
Cheng Tianyuan smiled and nodded, "Why are you here?"
Judging from the child's appearance and age, he shouldn't be a homeless gangster. He looks to be only two or three years older than Ranran, and a little taller, but his body is too thin, and he is bent over. He is dirty and looks like a little muddy boy.
Like a monkey.
The child was very polite: "I...my mother lives in the ward over there."
Maybe it was because of his own child that he felt sympathy for the child. Cheng Tianyuan said warmly: "What are you doing hiding here?"
The child dodged his eyes for a few times, and then answered after a long while: "I... I'm hungry... I can't sleep... Mom asked me to come out of the trash can to pick up something to eat. I'm waiting... You may still have some ribs to eat... I want to throw them away.
Lose."
Cheng Tianyuan frowned slightly when he heard this and asked: "Your mother asked you to come out of the trash can to pick up something to eat?"
"Yeah." The child lowered his head: "Mom said she had no money, and dad ignored us... She had nothing to eat, and neither did I."
Cheng Tianyuan sighed, looked at his dirty and pitiful appearance, and said warmly: "I'm going out to buy something to eat. You go out with me, and I'll buy some breakfast for you and your mother."
"No..." The child was startled, "My mother won't do it." Then, he ran away.
Cheng Tianyuan wanted to call him to stop him, but when he saw that he quickly flashed into Ward No. 7 in front of him and disappeared, he had no choice but to give up.
He went downstairs and quickly bought some steamed dumplings and two portions of porridge.
Suddenly, the little boy's shining eyes just now came to his mind.
Cheng Tianyuan felt a little distressed and said, "Bring me two more steamed dumplings."
After a while, he returned with his hands full.
He purposely did not take the elevator, but walked up the stairs. He soon reached the fifth floor and passed by Ward No. 7 on the way.
I saw someone lying in the ward, but I couldn't see their specific appearance. The little boy was sitting at the window, seemingly looking down.
Cheng Tianyuan thought for a while and returned to the house carrying the steamed dumplings.
Xue Ling ate one portion of steamed dumplings and one portion of gruel, but stopped eating.
"I'll rest for a while, and then we'll go downstairs for a walk."
Cheng Tianyuan nodded, ate a portion of porridge, then packed up three portions of steamed dumplings and placed them at the window.
Xue Ling raised his eyebrows suspiciously, not understanding what he was doing, and couldn't help but ask: "What are you doing that you don't put in it?"
Cheng Tianyuan had no choice but to tell the story about the little boy and whispered: "He doesn't dare to accept the gift. It's probably because his parents are unwilling. We don't need a bite to eat. It's okay if we don't know or don't know. Since we know, we will give him a full meal."
Bar."
Xue Ling nodded.
The two of them walked out of the ward hand in hand and headed for the stairs.
The little boy stood at the door of Ward No. 7, looking curiously at them.
Cheng Tianyuan waved to him.
The little guy rushed over quickly.
Cheng Tianyuan pointed to the steamed dumplings by the window and whispered: "My wife and I are full, and that's what's left. I was going to throw it away, but it got dirty when I threw it away, so I just put it on the window. If you want it, just take it
Go eat it. We are going to throw it away anyway, so it would be a waste if you don’t eat it.”
When the little boy heard this, he jumped up and ran over happily.
Xue Ling looked at her nose, which was slightly sour, and walked downstairs with Cheng Tianyuan.
She could no longer see her feet and could only walk slowly by feeling.
Cheng Tianyuan supported her and cooperated with her step by step, chatting in a low voice.
After returning from the walk, Xue Ling felt a little sleepy. She sat on the sofa and fell asleep leaning against the pillow and quilt.
Cheng Tianyuan closed the door and went downstairs to make a phone call.
After Xue Ling slept for a while, she was woken up by the noise of the child in her belly. She stopped sleeping at all and tried to sit up, but fell back again. She hurriedly grabbed the armrest and barely supported herself.
She breathed a sigh of relief and stood up.
She walked around the room and found it a little boring, so she simply opened the door and wanted to go to the stairs next to it to see the scenery.
Unexpectedly, someone was already at the stairs.
I saw a thin, middle-aged woman with messy hair and pale face leaning against the fence, with a sad expression and tears hanging from the corners of her eyes.
Her dead branch-like hands were still holding a receipt from the hospital, which seemed to be a reminder note from the hospital.
It was difficult for Xue Ling to move around, so he had to lean against the door and was about to walk back when he hurriedly stopped!
I saw the woman crossing her legs, trying to climb up the fence.
No! She is going to jump off the building!
Xue Ling was so frightened that she didn't care. He rushed forward, grabbed her arm, and shouted: "Come here! Help! Someone is going to jump off the building!"
The woman was so anxious that she didn't know what to do, so she pushed Xue Ling away!
