Where is Chunsheng

Chapter 17 17

The rain outside did not stop, the rain was a little lighter, but it was still inconvenient to travel.He Chunsheng walked to Area E, held up a big black umbrella, and walked quickly to the parking lot. After a few steps, he wet his trousers again.

He Chunsheng put on his bun, lit the fire, turned on the air conditioner, found an unopened pack of cigarettes from the front drawer, opened it, took out one to light, and put it between his lips.

He doesn't smoke often, less than one or two a year.The cigarettes and lighter belonged to Ye Qingqing. She sometimes sat in the co-pilot and wore a skirt with no pockets, so she kept cigarettes everywhere.

The car was stuffy, he turned on the air conditioner, the temperature outside was already less than ten degrees, and it was even colder inside the car, and his wet pants were freezing cold.

After a cigarette was burned out, He Chunsheng released the handbrake, put the gear on, and started the car. He didn't leave the parking lot directly, but walked around to the gate of Area A of the shopping mall.

Sure enough, Jiao Yan didn't get a taxi, but stood at the gate of Area A with nothing in his hands, no umbrella.

He Chunsheng parked the car not far from him, rolled down the window, and shouted, "Jiao Swear."

Jiao Yan turned his head, He Chunsheng waved to him and said, "Get in the car."

Jiao Yan hesitated for a moment, walked over, and sat in the passenger seat.He said to He Chunsheng, "Thank you! It rained so much that I couldn't get a taxi."

He Chunsheng nodded to express his understanding, and asked, "Where is your home?"

"In No. [-] Middle School, the staff dormitory."

While He Chunsheng was driving, Jiao Yao called home and asked how the child was doing. The other party seemed to give her a temperature, and Jiao Yao said, "Then give her five milliliters of red syrup first, which is antipyretic. It's on the first shelf of the medicine cabinet."

The person on the other side seemed to say that he would not be able to feed you, Jiao swore: "Then wait for me, I will be back soon."

Putting down the phone, Jiao swore explained: "My mother's eyes are not very good, and I'm afraid she might be given the wrong medicine."

"Yes." He Chunsheng replied.

Jiao Yan didn't speak any more, just turned his head to look at the rain outside the car window.It rained heavily again, hitting the car window, and the outside was vast, only the yellow lights could be seen twisting and swimming on the car window with the rain.

They really didn't know what to say, and they were not talkative people, so they just walked silently all the way to the staff dormitory of No. [-] Middle School.

He Chunsheng parked the car and asked Jiao Yan to sit still. He opened the umbrella and got out of the driver's seat, went around to the front passenger's car door, opened the door, and took Jiao Yan out of the car.

Jiao Xi thanked him, and the two walked into the unit door together.

"He Chunsheng, thank you, I won't waste your time, you go back first, I'll play with you when I'm free." Jiao swore apologetically.

"Yeah." He Chunsheng didn't say goodbye, but just nodded to Jiao oath.

Worried about her daughter's situation, Jiao Yan didn't pay much attention, but hurried upstairs. The school's staff dormitory is very old, and there is no elevator.

He Chunsheng didn't leave. He put the umbrella on the corner of the wall, lit another cigarette, and stood there smoking.

Sure enough, after 10 minutes, Jiao Yan came down with a three or four-year-old girl in his arms. He was stunned when he saw He Chunsheng was still there.

"It's raining so hard, you can't get a taxi, I'll take you to the hospital." He Chunsheng extinguished the cigarette in his hand and said.

"It's too much trouble for you." Jiao swore lowered his head and said.

Perhaps because he realized that He Chunsheng's previous "a friend came to visit" was just an excuse, after holding the little girl and sitting in the back seat, Jiao Yan didn't mention He Chunsheng's business again.The little girl leaned on her father's arms in a daze with fever, and Jiao Yan hugged her, saying: "My mother's eyesight is very poor, I don't worry about her going out..."

When I got down with the baby in my arms, I had to go through the rain to wait for a taxi on the street, and I didn't know when the car would be available.Jiao vowed not to say the rest.

He Chunsheng didn't ask, "Where's your wife?"

When we arrived at the hospital, fortunately, there were not many people queuing up for the pediatric emergency department.Because the little girl had a fever of 40 degrees Celsius and the fever could not subside at all, the doctor prescribed a drip for her and asked her to infuse in the injection room of the emergency department of the hospital.

The injection room of the emergency department of the First Hospital only had seats, but no beds. Jiao Shi asked the nurse if there were any beds, and the nurse said, "No, only the emergency room in our hospital has beds, which are for rescued patients."

When registering, He Chunsheng discovered that Jiao Shi's daughter's name was Jiao Chunshui.Jiao Chunshui is more than three years old, but she is relatively tall. Jiao Xi held her in his arms and sat in the injection room, as if she was the longest child being hugged by her parents for injections.She was half asleep and half awake all the time, and when she opened her eyes, she called "Dad". When Jiao Yan asked her how she was doing, she said, "I really want to sleep." She fell asleep again after a while.

Since Jiao vowed to hold the child all the time, He Chunsheng went to pay the fee

, Take the medicine and ask the nurse to dispense the medicine.The emergency department of the First Hospital has not changed for decades, and the charging office is still the same small window.He Chunsheng stood there, thinking of the scene of registering here with his father on his back more than 20 years ago, feeling a little emotional.

Jiao vowed to say "thank you" to He Chunsheng for the first time today when he walked into the injection room.After the nurse filled the injection, Jiao swore to He Chunsheng and said, "He Chunsheng, I'm really sorry for troubling you so much. Go back first, someone will come pick us up later."

"Oh, is your wife home?"

There was a blush on Jiao Yan's face, and he said in a little embarrassment: "Ah, she should be back in a while. She was going to attend the class reunion. Maybe it was too noisy and she didn't hear the call. I left a message for her."

"Really? It's all from today's class reunion." He Chunsheng looked at the redness on Jiao Yan's cheeks. Under the bright lights of the emergency infusion room, his skin looked so white, as if it was the same in the past.

The redness on Jiao Yan's face faded a little, he nodded and said, "Well, high school reunion."

"Then I'll leave when she comes." He Chunsheng sat down beside Jiao Yan.He thought, just this time, after tonight, he probably won't have the chance to see Jiao Shi again, he will attend the class reunion every five or ten years, and the next time he meets, he will be almost 40 years old.Next time, maybe they are all old and sick, and maybe they are no longer alive.

Sitting beside Jiao Shi like this, He Chunsheng no longer felt uneasy.Maybe the past self magnified those feelings, because he didn't get it, so it is unforgettable, but the regrets in the world are far more than that, staying by Jiao Xi's side like this, on the contrary, allows him to face up to these regrets.

"I'm sorry." At ten o'clock, when the child's infusion was coming to an end, Jiao Yan, who had been silent for two hours, suddenly said this to He Chunsheng.

He Chunsheng, who was not sure what he was apologizing for, said, "You are too polite."

Jiao Xi glanced at him, and He Chunsheng was stunned.There seemed to be some moisture in his eyes.

He Chunsheng, who couldn't interpret the meaning of that glance, suddenly felt a pain in his heart, just like that rainy night many years ago, the already extinguished flame loomed and swayed, making him hot and uneasy.

Jiao Yan lowered his head, looked at the vibrating phone, and said, "She's coming soon, you go first. It's late, and your home is so far away, so drive carefully."

Jiao Yao insisted again and again, but He Chunsheng had no reason to stay any longer.He stood up and said to Jiao Jiao: "Then I'll go first."

Jiao swore raised his head and said, "Thank you."

"You're welcome." He Chunsheng didn't ask Jiao Yao for his phone number, nor did he leave him the phone number.After tonight, there is no need to meet.

The rain had subsided, and He Chunsheng leaned against the old pillar at the entrance of the emergency department of the hospital, and lit a cigarette.He has smoked more today than in the past year.

No. 10 Middle School is very close to here, and it doesn’t take [-] minutes to walk. The distance separated by the heavy rain is no longer a problem after the rain stops.He should have left long ago, Jiao oath must be very troubled.

He thinks that he is probably the person that Jiao Xie is the last person he wants to see again in his life.

The boy who was like the sun in his heart grew into an ordinary middle-aged man, not as vigorous as he imagined, and even a bit shabby.Living in a dilapidated dormitory, doing a job with a modest salary, the child is still young, the mother is sick, and the wife does not know what kind of person she is.

He will never forget the way Chen Qian left Jiao Yan who was in danger that day.But maybe, when the girl grows up and understands responsibility and love, people will become different?

Thinking of this, He Chunsheng couldn't help becoming irritable.He had never experienced the feeling of "irritability" since his father's death.He was already very satisfied with his life—but what about Jiao Swear?

He Chunsheng stood at the door of the emergency department for an hour, and saw several parents who came to the emergency department with their children, but he did not see a woman who came alone. He looked at his watch, and it was past eleven o'clock.

After a while, he saw Jiao Yan coming out with his daughter on his back.He Chunsheng hid behind the pillar, and Jiao swore couldn't see him. His daughter asked from his back, "Father, where is mother?"

"Mom is busy, she won't come back." Jiao Yan said softly to Jiao Chunshui.

"Dad, Mom said you were a wimp. Is it because of this that Mom didn't come home for so long?" Probably the fever subsided, and the little girl's energy was obviously much better.

The child's ignorant words probably hurt Jiao Yan, he didn't answer, the little girl asked relentlessly: "Daddy, Daddy, what do you mean by being a wimp?"

"That means," Jiao Yan took a deep breath, and said, "soft, delicious cake-like food."

The rain has long since stopped.Jiao Xi, father and daughter walked into the night, there were lights along the way, forming a halo in the haze.He Chunsheng left the pillar, started the car, and followed them slowly without turning on the lights.

For the 10-minute journey, Jiao vowed to walk slowly.There was no one on the road, and the little girl stopped talking.The accumulated water on the ground soaked his trousers, and his shoes and socks must have been soaked.

He Chunsheng saw Jiao Yan entering the back door of No. [-] Middle School from a distance, so he turned his car and left there.
