222 The Son Travels Thousands of Miles and the Mother Worries
The operation took a long time. After the operation, Xu Cheng, who was still in anesthesia, was pushed out. We all went up to him. Looking at him lying quietly on the hospital bed, I felt like the world was silent in an instant.
Shortly after the operation, Dai Xiangwei took Xu Cheng's mother and relatives to Shanghai from T City to lightning. After more than a year, I met Xu Cheng's mother again. Her temples on her head were already a little gray, but her eyes were still as sharp as before. She walked so vigorously, not like an old man in her seventies at all.
I went up to meet me and said: Auntie, Xu Cheng had just finished the surgery, and he has not yet undergone anesthesia and has not woken up yet.
She glanced at me from top to bottom, and the expression on her face was neither salty nor light. She just asked me gently in Mandarin with dialect: Why did Xu Cheng get sick and didn't even notify her at home? It's been several months, and I was so anxious that I didn't have any news about him at home.
Dai Xiangwei glanced at me and wanted to explain it to me. I gestured to him not to use it. I said: Auntie, it’s Xu Cheng’s intention. I’m afraid that you will be worried when you get older, so I didn’t tell you.
The ones accompanying her were Xu Cheng's aunt and uncle. His uncle looked quite like an intellectual. His mother didn't reply to me, so the three of them walked straight to Xu Cheng's bedside. His mother called out softly: Ergouzi, mom is here.
She held Xu Cheng's hand. Before Xu Cheng woke up, she lay quietly there and was lying in tears. *** tears came out in an instant. I walked in, took out a tissue and handed it to her. I said: Auntie, the doctor said that he would wake up in a while. Let's sit there and wait first, okay?
Xu Cheng's uncle said to me: That's right? I heard from my elder sister that you have been talking about for so long, and I finally saw you today. Xu Cheng is sick and thanks to your care. But in the future, I still have to notify my family of such a big thing. The house is in chaos. Everyone doesn't know your phone number or what's going on here.
I nodded and took on everything. I said: OK, it was my negligence. Uncle, I will notify my family as soon as possible if there is any problem in the future.
His mother seemed to blame me for being particularly angry with me, and she let out a cold snort from her nose. His aunt didn't say hello to me head-on. I knew that they were angry with me and thought that Xu Cheng was so sick, I didn't even inform them, so I looked at me and I could understand their feelings.
But the fairy couldn't stand it. The fairy pulled my sleeve and pulled me outside, then said: It seems that Xu Cheng's mother is not a very gentle woman. I have always heard those aunts say that the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is not easy to get along. I felt it when I met the first time today. Then, I'll be sweating for you.
As we were talking, Dai Xiangwei also came out and said: Why don’t you tell the truth? Now, the Xu family blames you.
I smiled and said: Xu Cheng is still sick. As long as he can heal, it is nothing to suffer a little grievance. You can't push the blame on Xu Cheng. It's already uncomfortable to see Xu Cheng like this. If I blame Xu Cheng, wouldn't they be even more angry?
Dai Xiangwei tsk twice and said: Hey, are you hungry? I'll go and have some food for you. I didn't see anything from his family along the way, so I probably worried that it was broken.
After saying that, Dai Xiangwei went downstairs, the fairy took my hand, and suddenly said with relief: I was worried about your sex, and if I married someone, what would this family relationship be like? The people of the Xu Cheng family have a big family life, which is different from our small families. Now I feel relieved to see you so tolerant. As a result, they are angry, and they are tolerant as much as they can. Everyone cares about Xu Cheng, and the starting point is the same.
I nodded and said: Well, it's always a family. I feel angry and say a few words, so let them say it.
The fairy touched my hair and said: I feel wronged, my dear daughter. I have to work so hard with a big belly, but no one feels sorry for me, and I have to bear it alone. I, a damn person, can't help you.
I said: What are you saying? Where can I find a mother-in-law as good as you in the world? You say it? If someone else's daughter had an incurable fiancé, my mother would have persuaded him to part with him long ago. Who would run around like you? Mom, you have helped me enough, I will remember it here.
I pointed to my heart, and she patted my arm with emotion, and then said: Silly girl, I am your mother, I should do whatever you do for you. If you are grateful, you will be better to you Uncle Liu in the future. Although he is not your biological father, he is much more considerate to you than your biological father.
I nodded and said: Well, I remember it all. When Xu Cheng gets ready, I will repay you with him.
I suddenly lowered my head and found that there were more silver threads on the fairy's head. I looked at the white hair that emerged one by one and felt guilty again. This seemingly careless woman has been so worried about us during this period and so many nights that she can't sleep. At that moment, I suddenly understood the meaning of mother.
We walked in again, and Xu Cheng's mother stood in front of the hospital bed, watching Xu Cheng crying continuously. I introduced the fairy to Xu Cheng's aunt and uncle. Their enthusiasm was not high, so they just nodded simply.
I stood beside Xu Cheng's mother and said: Auntie, don't be too sad. The operation is very successful and Xu Cheng will wake up soon.
She turned her head and then suddenly saw my bulging belly. She suddenly grabbed my hand with great excitement and asked me: Daughter, are you... happy?
I smiled and nodded, and said: Well, it has been more than four months, the child is very healthy, and everything is normal.
After hearing what I said, Xu Cheng's aunt and uncle quickly surrounded him from there, pulled me and started asking questions, and I answered them one by one. Their expressions were not as cold as before, and the atmosphere began to warm up slowly. Xu Cheng's mother said three words, "It's great", then took my hand and looked at Xu Cheng lying on the bed. She didn't know what to say for a moment.
I said: The child’s name is God’s will, and Xu Cheng and I took it because the child came at the right time.
Her mother said excitedly: This name is good, this name is auspicious.
After saying that, he couldn't help but touch my stomach, and then asked Aunt Xu Cheng to bring in a chair with concern, quickly asked me to sit down and ask me about my well-being.
After the anesthesia, Xu Cheng woke up. He called my name as soon as he woke up. Xu Cheng's mother held his hand and put it on his face and said: Ergouzi, Mom is here, how about it? Is it still painful? Is it uncomfortable? Seeing you like this, Mom feels so distressed. How could you be so thin?
His mother always spoke very quickly. Xu Cheng subconsciously said to her in a weak voice: Mom, it's okay, I'm fine. What about it? Where is it?
I quickly went up to meet him, took his other hand, and said: I am here, I am here, I have not gone anywhere, I have been guarding you.
The moment he saw me, he smiled with difficulty, and I laughed too. His mother looked at me and then looked at him. The expression on her face was a little embarrassed. She put down Xu Cheng's hand and sat down.
At that moment, I had no time to think too much. He said softly: At that moment, I dreamed, a very beautiful dream, I dreamed of me, and I stood in front of you as healthy as before.
I said happily: Yes, that day will come soon. Look, my aunt rushed over from her hometown and was always worried about you, and she couldn't eat or sleep.
Xu Cheng turned his head and called out to mom. His mom then took his hand again and burst into tears excitedly. He held his hand tightly and said: Mom, I'm sorry, I've made you worried.
As soon as Xu Cheng woke up, the fairy called the doctor. As soon as Xu Cheng woke up, he was very weak. The doctor told us to talk to him less and let him rest more.
His mother heard the doctor say this and quickly called everyone out. She said: It would be good if I have here. I will accompany Ergouzi, you can go and rest, have some food and have a sleep, etc. I will call everyone if there is something wrong.
Who knew that Xu Cheng was very childish, and he actually said: Mom, go and rest, just have it with me, I want to talk to him.
My face was a little embarrassed and I didn't dare to look at the expressions of ***. When his mother heard Xu Cheng say this, she stood up and said: Ergouzi said that you would accompany you, then you will suffer a little. I will take my aunt and uncle to eat something, and you can sit here.
I nodded, sat down, looked up at the fairy, and her expression was a little sad. I think it was Xu Cheng's strong tone that made her worry for me.
I used my eyes to signal that she was fine, and then watched them go out, then I took Xu Cheng's hand and smiled at him foolishly.
He also laughed, probably after anesthesia, and the pain of the wound was too much. He grinned and screamed softly. I suddenly became nervous. I said: Husband, don’t use force, I understand, I understand.
He held my hand tightly and said: You are all in your dreams. You have been holding my hand and saying, I'm waiting for you here.
I kissed his face and said: The operation was successful, the doctor said everything was fine, don't worry, soon you can hold me and carry me on the back like before.
He said: Then do you think I am too thin and have no strength?
I shook my head and said: It's okay, I have great strength, no matter how hard I can carry you.
He laughed, everyone laughed a little harder, and then screamed in pain. I didn't dare to tease him anymore. I just held his hands and looked at each other, not daring to cry, nor dared to be too happy. I just gathered thousands of words in my eyes and sent them to him bit by bit.
He touched my stomach again and said: I also dreamed of God's will. It's a boy, very naughty.
I smiled and said: Whether it is a boy or a girl, they are all our children. When you get better, they will be born. I promised me to take good care of my illness, and I will wait for God to come out and be your dad.
