A foreign city, dear you

Cao Xueqian really didn't dare to delay for a minute, because he knew that for every minute of delay, his mother would have to endure one more minute of pain.

Since receiving the call from Grandpa Lanshan, Cao Xueqian has been calling non-stop, busy and anxious.

Fortunately, everything is arranged now and we are on our way back to our hometown.

Cao Xueqian held the steering wheel and kept warning himself not to speed.

Because, according to his mood, he wished he could drive and fly.

Cao Xueqian drove the car, feeling full of guilt.

He blamed himself for not discovering his mother's condition earlier?

In retrospect, when I called back two nights ago, my mother didn't answer the phone. In the past, every time I called back, my mother would answer the phone immediately. Even if she didn't receive the call right away, she would come to answer the phone later. , always say a few words.

This time, his mother didn't answer the phone, but he didn't notice anything was wrong. He didn't even know that his mother had been sick for several days. He was really ashamed, not a good son...

Ye Lian didn't expect to hear bad news when she came back from buying groceries.

Unexpectedly, Grandma Lanshan fell ill and was hospitalized, and she was still not cured after several days.

But she couldn't do anything to help, so she could only worry and watch Cao Xueqian calling back and forth on the phone, busy here and there.

When Cao Xueqian was about to go out, Ye Lian prepared a change of clothes for him. Cao Xueqian said no, how could he still have time to change clothes?

Cao Xueqian borrowed a car and picked up Cheng Yufei. When he was about to set off from Yancheng, he called Ye Lian and told him that they were setting off.

Ye Lian looked at the time: 11:10 am.

Even though Cheng Yufei was accompanying her along the way, Ye Lian was still worried.

After all, it's such a long journey, and it's going back and forth, there won't be a quarter of an hour's rest along the way, and you have to take care of a sick old man.

Can the two of them handle it?

Can Grandma Lanshan tolerate it?

Ye Lian was never as superstitious as Grandma Lanshan, but she couldn't help but clasp her hands together and pray for God's blessing.

Ye Lian also called Grandpa Lanshan and greeted Grandma Lanshan. Grandma Lanshan also propped herself up and said a few words to Ye Lian on the phone. Her voice was weak, which made Ye Lian uncomfortable.

Grandma Lanshan is getting old after all.

He was such a strong and fierce person back then. He could make Ye Lian cry when they had a quarrel, make her tremble with anger, and even go to her school without hesitation...

But time is not forgiving. After so many years, the person who was bickering and fighting with me has become old, has osteoporosis, and can no longer move...

Ye Lian couldn't help but feel sour.

Thinking about it, since the big quarrel with Lanshan's grandmother, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law when they were still working at Meiying School, they have never had any quarrels since then, and they have become more tolerant of each other.

Ye Lian thinks that she is an old man and does not care about many things with her.

Grandma Lanshan knew that after the quarrel, her son would definitely protect Ye Lian. She would not have the upper hand, so she later calmed down and stopped making trouble.

In the past ten years, Ye Lian and Grandma Lanshan have gotten along harmoniously. Ye Lian has gained more respect, and Grandma Lanshan has gained more kindness.

In fact, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is a bond of love, and this fate should be cherished.

Yu Yelian, because she loves Cao Xueqian, she is involved in a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship with Grandma Lanshan. She is grateful to this mother-in-law, who gave her a good husband;

Grandma Yu Lanshan, she loves her son, and of course she hopes that her son will have a happy family. She is grateful to her daughter-in-law, who gave her son another kind of love and gave her son a happy home.

Two women, one old and one young, love the same man. Isn't this a bond of love? Why should we live up to this fate?

……

One day passed.

The first thing Ye Lian did when she woke up in the morning was to call Cao Xueqian and ask where they were.

Last night, when Cao Xueqian called to tell Ye Lian that they had arrived in the small county town of their hometown, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening.

They immediately embarked on their return trip after picking up Grandma Lanshan.

I didn’t get out of the car to eat anything along the way, just some dry food to satisfy my hunger.

It's another night, I wonder where they are? I haven't slept all night. I wonder if my mental state is okay? I wonder if Grandma Lanshan is doing well?

Fortunately, Cao Xueqian replied, everything was fine on the road. Fortunately, I borrowed this car so that my mother could lie down properly. The road conditions were not bad, but I didn’t dare to drive too fast. Don’t worry at home.

……

Ye Lian was worried and later made several phone calls to ask.

At almost 12 o'clock in the morning, Cao Xueqian called to say that they had arrived at Pinghua Hospital safely.

Ye Lian finally breathed a sigh of relief and told Cao Xueqian that I would be there right away.

But Cao Xueqian stopped him and said, "You don't have to come. It takes more than two hours to get here by car. Only one person is allowed to accompany you in this hospital. I can't leave anyway. I'm here to take care of my mother's surgery. You can replace me tomorrow."

Ye Lian was really moved and worried.

From 11 o'clock yesterday morning to 12 o'clock this morning, Cao Xueqian stayed awake for 25 hours. Then he had to accompany the old man for surgery and stay overnight. How could he bear it?

Ye Lian once again saw a man's responsibility and responsibility from Cao Xueqian.

Grandma Lanshan's condition was not complicated. It was osteoporosis, which caused a comminuted fracture of the spine. After arriving at Pinghua Hospital that day, Dr. Zhang immediately arranged surgery for Grandma Lanshan - bone cement infusion.

The effect of the operation was immediate. The pain was not that strong on the second day, and he could sit up on the third day. He was discharged from the hospital after a total stay of three days, and followed Ye Lian back to Jinjinghuayuan to recuperate.

Grandma Lanshan was very emotional:

If I had known that I could recover so quickly, I should have come to Yancheng earlier, so that I wouldn’t have to suffer so much in the hospital in my hometown county;

It's better if the children are capable. Someone in their village also has osteoporosis and back pain, but the children have no money to treat him, so they can only carry him, and the pain is pitiful.

Grandma Lanshan stayed in Jinjinghua Garden for about ten days, and she basically recovered and was able to walk around.

The old man always said how nice Ye Lian was and how careful, considerate and filial he was to her.

Ye Lian was so embarrassed by the praise that she felt that she had just performed some basic filial piety, how could it be so exaggerated? But the old man likes to talk, so let her talk.

Grandma Lanshan, who felt recovered, told Ye Lian and Cao Xueqian that she wanted to go back to her hometown. She said that although it was nice to be in Yancheng, where she could see her son, daughter-in-law, and good grandson, she was not used to it and felt that it would take a long time to go back to her hometown. Just touch it here and there and the day will pass quickly.

On the day he sent Grandma Lanshan back to her hometown, Cao Xueqian was both happy and emotional.

Fortunately, my mother's health recovered. On the way to pick her up in Yancheng that day, I saw her mother lying in pain in the car. As a son, I felt really distressed and uncomfortable. Now, my mother can move freely again and talk and laugh again.

What’s emotional is that for children, when their parents are well, it’s a sunny day and they can work outside with peace of mind. But if something happens to their parents, the children must hold up the sky for their parents and let their parents’ sky reopen. Bright, clear.

……

Cao Xueqian thought the sky where his parents lived had cleared up, but within a few days, something happened to Grandpa Lanshan again.
