Since learning that his father was seriously ill, Qu Xiangyou felt more relaxed than ever before.

He also knew that his wife did not want to sell the house, and she did not stop her out of his filial piety. She also did her best to take care of his father these days. He saw it all and was very grateful.

I even felt that I owed my wife a little, but my mother was gone and I only had my father. If I didn't give my father treatment, I would never live with my conscience for the rest of my life.

Now that he didn't have to sell the house, he could also face his wife properly, so he nodded.

"Although my boss is young, he is a man of his word and will never break his promise. I have already bought the train ticket and will send our father to Beijing tomorrow."

When Chen Fang heard this, tears flowed uncontrollably. She wiped away her tears and said.

"Your boss is a very kind person. We must repay her in the future. I will pack up now and go to Beijing with you tomorrow."

Qu Xiangyou stopped her and said, "No, you have to take care of the children and our father during this period. You have worked hard. You should stay at home and take good care of the children. Xiang Hong will accompany me to Beijing."

Qu Xianghong is Qu Xiangyou's younger sister. Before, when he needed money, his brother-in-law and his family did not show up. This time when they were going to Beijing, he called his sister along.

Chen Fang hesitated. "Did Xiang Hong agree? What did her husband say?"

Qu Xiang sighed with disappointment, "I promised to give her 15 yuan a month, and then she agreed to take care of Dad."

Originally, it was possible to invite outsiders, but Qu Xiang considered that inviting outsiders would not be as considerate as taking care of the children.

He couldn't stay in Beijing all the time, he had several children at home, and his wife couldn't leave him for too long, so he thought of asking his sister to take care of them.

My sister has a mother-in-law at home, so the child can be temporarily left in her care.

Chen Fang finally felt relieved. "You haven't slept much these past few days. Go and get some rest. I'll go help Dad pack up."

Qu Xiang nodded, got up and went into his father's room. Qu's father was lying on the bed, looking at the ceiling with cloudy eyes. Hearing the noise, he turned his head to take a look.

Seeing that it was his son coming in, he said weakly.

"Don't bother me. I won't get treatment. I'm already this old. Even if I'm cured, how many years can I live? The children are almost getting married. I can't let the family fall apart. It's worth it if I can live in a big house like this for a few days in my life. Send me back to the old house tomorrow morning. I'll stay in the old house when I leave. Don't ruin your nice new house."

Qu Xiangyou felt a pang in his heart and said as he sat down on the edge of the bed.

"Dad, please don't say such things. How can I not get treated?"

In order to trick my father into giving me treatment, I deliberately said, "I am capable now and have become the factory director. If I don't treat you, how will others look at me? Don't think about anything now. Just cooperate with the treatment. Let's go to Beijing tomorrow. My boss is willing to pay for your treatment without me having to sell my house."

Father Qu's arms were shaking with excitement and his eyes were red.

"Is your boss willing to pay? A kidney transplant costs a lot of money, how can your boss agree to it? Don't lie to me in order to get me treatment."

"I'm not lying to you." Qu Xiangyou tucked the corner of the quilt for his father. "The money for medical treatment will be deducted from my salary. My current salary is 300 yuan, plus commissions. In a few years, the debt will be paid off. Don't think about anything now. Just go to Beijing and cooperate with the hospital for treatment."

Qu's father is a simple and honest man. He has lived an honest life and has never done anything against his conscience. He feels that if he owes someone a favor, he must repay it.

"The debt our family owes your boss cannot be repaid simply by paying back the money."

He held his son's hand tightly and said tremblingly, "Xiang You, you must promise me that you will not do anything that is detrimental to the factory in this life. Just work diligently for your boss. Unless the factory closes down or they don't want you anymore, you must not do anything to let your boss down until the day you retire. You must be grateful and repay kindness. This is to accumulate virtue for future generations."

Qu Xiang nodded, "Dad, I know everything."

After a pause, he continued, "I'm quite busy, and Xiang Hong has to take care of the children, so I can't stay by your side to take care of you. I've already told Xiang Hong to take care of you. I'll visit you when I have time."

When Mr. Qu heard that his daughter was willing to take care of him, he nodded with relief and said, "Just take care of yourself. Don't worry about me. Just take care of Xiang Hong."

The son is willing to pay and the daughter is willing to take care of the baby. Both are filial children.

Qu Xiangyou saw that his father's mood improved when he heard that his sister was taking care of him, and he didn't mention that his sister agreed to take care of him only because he paid for it.

He didn't want to make his father sad in this situation.

After chatting for more than ten minutes, seeing that my father was getting sleepy, I closed the door and left the room.

Qu Xiangyou hadn't been able to sleep all night since his father was hospitalized, but tonight he had a rare good night's sleep.

As soon as it was light, I took my father and boarded the train to Beijing.

…

It snowed again in Beijing all night, but fortunately the snow was not heavy and only accumulated above the knees.

It was white outside in the morning and the neighbors were outside shoveling snow from the roads.

Yang Niannian borrowed a shovel and had just cleaned halfway when Yu Sui arrived.

She quickly put down the shovel and followed Yu Sui to the hospital.

The snow was so heavy that all the buses on the road stopped running. The two walked for more than an hour before they reached the hospital.

The two of them registered, told the doctor the patient's condition, completed the admission procedures smoothly, and waited for the patient to arrive.

To express her gratitude, Yang Niannian invited Yu Sui to dinner at the Siheyuan.

"Let's go to the courtyard together! We have ingredients at home, I'll cook lunch at noon. I've eaten too much food outside, and it's not as good as home-cooked meals."

At least, that's what she thought.

Throughout the year, it is indeed the school where he eats the most meals. Yu Sui also prefers to eat home-cooked meals, especially after tasting Yang Niannian's cooking.

Yu Sui didn't bother to be rude to her and agreed directly, "Okay, I'll go with you to the train station to pick someone up this afternoon."

The snow was so deep that it was not safe for a little girl like Yang Niannian to take a taxi.

Yang Niannian did not refuse. She didn't know how serious Qu's father's illness was. If he couldn't walk and needed someone to carry him, it would be much more convenient to have more men.

The two walked on the snow back to the courtyard. It was almost time for dinner. The snow at the door had been cleared away. A crackling sound came from the kitchen, which made people's scalps numb.

When Yang Niannian walked to the kitchen door, she saw Zheng Xinyue wearing an apron and busy cooking. Two dishes and a soup were already prepared on the table, and stir-fried pork with chili peppers was in the pot.

Seeing Yang Niannian and Yu Sui coming back, Zheng Xinyue urged them, "Hurry up and wash your hands. You can eat soon."

A burning smell kept hitting Yang Niannian's nose, and the corner of her mouth twitched, "How about I fry it?"

Zheng Xinyue waved her hand, "No need, the food will be ready soon."

"..." Yang Niannian looked at the black meat in the pot, turned around silently, and said to Yu Sui, "This is Xinyue's first time cooking, you are in for a treat, eat more later."

Yu Sui smelled a burning smell and had a bad feeling. Is it too late to leave now?
