Medical road ahead

"Good water flows in the stream, which drop is not free from stubborn stone gas? Good grass grows on the grass, which plant is not hit by wind and frost? There are thousands of women in the world, which daughter will not suffer bitterly"

When the car arrived in the mountains, the black girl who was a little motion sick suddenly regained her spirits and sang out the window. However, Qiao Tan heard the lyrics were strange, and the way she sang was different from the tune of ordinary folk songs, so she couldn't help being curious: " What is the black girl singing?"

The black girl stopped singing and said to Qiao Tan: "Sister Qiao, this is what my mother taught me to sing, and I don't know the name of the song?"

Then, she turned to look at her mother and asked, "Mom, what is the name of this song?"

"cough!"

Hei Niu's mother rubbed her nose in embarrassment, "This is our local Butuo high-pitched tune, which is different from your Han people's singing style. One phrase and one phrase, the same tune is sung repeatedly with slight changes. Then it suddenly rises to a high pitch, then sings in a falsetto, finally drags in a real voice, and finally falls four to five degrees, or seven to eight degrees, and ends with a sudden stop."

"Forehead"

Qiao Tan, who didn't know much about melody, was half-aware when he heard it, so he could only smile awkwardly, "You mountain people seem to be born with an understanding of music, and you are also good at singing and dancing."

"Hehe. Because we are not like your city leaders. We play a lot of things. We only have to sing and dance to pass the time." Hei Niu's mother said with a smile.

"However, the lyrics seem to contain some accusation." Qin Xiao interrupted suddenly.

The black girl's mother smiled blushingly, "This is a wedding song, used to accuse arranged marriages."

"My mother likes to sing this song very much, and I often listen to her sing it."

As she said that, the black girl sang again to the window, completely ignorant of the true meaning of the lyrics, but sang it as a nursery rhyme.

Qiao Tan peeked at Hei Niu's mother through the rearview mirror, and found that she was looking at her daughter with a complicated expression.

"Mother black girl, are you also an arranged marriage?" She asked in a low voice.

"Ah."

The black girl nodded frankly, and said helplessly: "Although free love is encouraged in our place, most of the young people end up in arranged marriages under the arrangements of their parents. After all, there are few people in our place, and two families can get married. When you meet a relative, even if it is not a relative, you are still an acquaintance. Everyone knows the basics. Therefore, when you are about fifteen or sixteen years old, your parents will betroth their children. Before they are twenty, they will marry and have a child. , and this life is pretty much the same.”

"Don't say that, you are still young, and you have a long way to go, at least, you have taken this step now and walked out of the mountains." Qiao Tan relieved.

"Come out."

The black girl's mother smiled, showing a rare joyful expression.

The black girl seemed to feel the changes in her mother, and then she leaned into her arms and asked her about everything.

"Mom, is City C very big?"

"Mom, will the children there also call me Little Monkey?"

However, Hei Niu's mother couldn't answer these questions, so she had to ask Qiao Tan for help with her eyes.

Qiao Tan immediately understood, smiled and said to Hei Niu: "City is very big, and if you are not careful, you will get lost, so when you get there, you are not allowed to run around, otherwise it will be difficult to find if you disappear. .”

"oh oh."

The black girl nodded obediently, and asked, "Then will the children in City C call me a little monkey like the brothers and sisters in our village?"

Qiao Tan said to her patiently: "Black girl, because of your special appearance, they are curious and afraid, but this does not mean that you are not good, understand?"

The black girl pursed her lips and lowered her head again, "But I wasn't like this before. They used to like me and said I was pretty, but now they avoid me."

Qiao Tan continued to comfort her: "That's because they are a little scared. Think about it, if your mother suddenly had hair all over her face, wouldn't you be scared?"

"I will."

The black girl glanced at her mother and nodded hesitantly.

Qiao Tan said, "When we cure your illness and lose all your hair, you will be as beautiful as before."

"Whee!"

Hearing this, the black girl happily pulled the fluff on her face, smiling so hard that she couldn't see her teeth.

"Black girl, I'll teach you how to sing, okay?" Qiao Tan said with a smile.

"Okay!" The black girl smiled and nodded.

"Clap your hands if you feel happy"

Afterwards, Qiao Tan taught the black girl to sing while clapping his hands.

Since then, laughing and laughing all the way made Qin Xiao Shulang feel comfortable driving, and also let the mother who was a bit nervous gradually relax, and began to enjoy the fun of the journey, admire the scenery outside the window, and imagine the future
"Walking around, I came here again."

After returning to City C, for safety reasons, the four of them went to the hotel for isolation first, and then went to the Affiliated Hospital of C University to arrange treatment for the black girl after two weeks.

And the hotel they stayed in was exactly the hotel where Qiao Tan and Qin Xiao first met a year ago.

"This hotel has a cooperative project with our hospital, so it is most convenient to come here for isolation." Qin Xiao explained with a smile.

After sending the mother and daughter of the black girl to the next room, Qin Xiao took Qiao Tan into his own room.

"Another room?"

Qiao Tan raised his eyebrows, "The availability of this hotel doesn't seem to be tight."

Qin Xiao didn't bother to explain, he hugged her into his arms, and said affectionately: "Is there anything wrong with living in the same room with your fiancée? Besides, your parents have given you to me, so what's wrong with you?" Relieved?"

"There is still a lack of legal recognition."

Qiao Tan pushed him away, put his hands on his hips, and said righteously: "We are Chinese citizens, so naturally we must abide by Chinese laws."

"So you're planning to kick me out?"

Qin Xiao crossed his arms around his chest, his face was neither angry nor happy, but his eyes were full of grievances.

"Humph!"

Qiao Tan didn't answer, but turned around arrogantly and walked towards the bathroom.

"Ah."

Looking at the back of her head held high, Qin Xiao smiled, "The little girl is still pretty."

Although the two were isolated in the hotel, since they returned to City C, they quickly adjusted their status and started the online office mode.

Qin Xiao kept meeting every day, and had to help Hei Niu contact the comprehensive consultation, while Qiao Tan was busy for a while, so he went to accompany Hei Niu's mother and daughter for a while, told them about the situation in C City, and spread the knowledge of nutrition by the way.

To Qiao Tan's surprise, although the black girl's mother was only a junior high school student, she learned things quickly. Therefore, Qiao Tan directly borrowed her a notebook, taught her how to use it, and then taught her to use the Internet to learn some nutrition and preschool education by herself. knowledge, so that the mother and daughter can pass the time while learning practical knowledge.

At night, after having dinner in the black girl's room, Qiao Tan packed some meals for Qin Xiao to take back. However, Qin Xiao was still in a meeting, so Qiao Tan had to gently put the packing box in front of him, and then twisted his hands. Go to the bathroom to wash up.

"Director Qin, is that Dr. Qiao? The back looks like Dr. Qiao."

"Wow! Do you two share a room?"

"When will you get married?"

Qiao Tan's shock just now did not escape the eyes of the interns on the other side of the screen. They were so excited and talking non-stop that they completely forgot that they were in a meeting.

"Don't want to go home?"

With a stern face, Qin Xiao coldly glanced at the gossip faces on the screen, frightened them so that they had no choice but to shut up, put away their curiosity and continue the meeting.

When the meeting was over, Qin Xiao raised the corners of his lips and showed a smug smile. He reached out to open a velvet box in the drawer, took out the carved diamond ring that had been lying in it for a long time, and walked towards the bathroom where the sound of water kept running, "Yao Why, hold out your hand, and I'll cut your nails."

Walking to the glass door, Qin Xiao knocked on the glass.

"Cut nails?"

Qiao Tan looked bewildered, looked down at his fingers with not so long nails, opened the glass door, and stretched out his right hand.

"The nails on your hand are not long, change to your left hand." Qin Xiao's voice came again.

"Huh?" But the nails on my left hand are not long either!

After Qiao Tan muttered something in his heart, he stretched out his left hand again.

"Huh? Didn't you cut my nails? Put something on my hands."

When she saw the exquisite diamond ring on the ring finger of her left hand, she was stunned for a moment.

"What are you doing?"

After a long while, she came back to her senses and looked at Qin Xiao with bewildered eyes.

"Proposal."

Qin Xiao smiled brightly, pushed open the glass door, and walked straight in.

"Hey! I'm taking a shower."

"Will get your clothes wet. Ugh"

The panicked words were instantly silenced, leaving only the gurgling sound of water and the lingering and charming voice that filled the room.
