Chapter 145: Change of Attitude
However, Ding Jiayi kept telling herself that Qiao Dongliang had just woken up and was in low spirits and listless. It was normal for him to ignore people, otherwise why would he be called a patient? So it might be her illusion.
But even Qiao Zijin was like this, and Ding Jiayi felt a little uneasy.
"Okay, your dad is still sick, and the wound must be very painful. Your dad just has no strength left, so don't think too much." Touching Qiao Zijin's head, Ding Jiayi didn't know whether she was comforting Qiao Zijin or herself.
By the evening, one of the mother and her two daughters had to go home, and someone had to stay behind to take care of Qiao Dongliang.
Without waiting for Ding Jiayi to say anything, Qiao Dongliang spoke first: "Tonight, Nannan, you go back, and Zijin stays to take care of me."
"Isn't it bad?" Ding Jiayi frowned. She wanted Qiao Nan to stay. After all, Old Qiao had already woken up. The first person Old Qiao saw when he woke up was Zi Jin. Zi Jin wouldn't have to work so hard next time. "Zi Jin stayed up all night for you yesterday. Let's switch shifts with Qiao Nan today. Zi Jin will come to see you tomorrow, tomorrow night."
Ding Jiayi's original plan was to let Qiao Zijin look after Qiao Dongliangxing.
After Qiao Dongliang woke up, the job of taking care of him was naturally given to Qiao Nan.
Qiao Dongliang suddenly made a request, catching Ding Jiayi off guard.
In the past at the Qiao family, "matters" like this were all arranged by Ding Jiayi alone. Qiao Dongliang never expressed his opinions, let alone took the initiative to make any requests. What happened today?
Could it be because Zijin was the first person Lao Qiao saw when he woke up, so because of that little bird plot, he really started to pay attention to Zijin?
Ding Jiayi was a little unsure for a moment and was stunned. She didn't know how to react or what to do.
"Well, then I'll stay tonight." Ding Jiayi was speechless, so Qiao Zijin spoke first.
"Zijin, are you okay? You didn't sleep much last night." Ding Jiayi said a little anxiously.
"I..." In fact, Qiao Zijin was tired and sleepy. The most important thing was that it was summer now, and she had been guarding Qiao Dongliang for a whole day. Qiao Zijin sweated a lot, and her whole body was sticky and uncomfortable. She just wanted to go home and take a good bath.
But her father had already spoken, and if she didn't stay, what would the other people in the ward think of her?
Qiao Nan is filial and a good daughter!
"Dad, how about I stay?" Qiao Nan never had any hope for Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin. Qiao Zijin was not happy, but Qiao Nan was willing: "Dad, how about I stay?"
Her father's condition was quite dangerous before, and Qiao Zijin really watched over her father the whole night yesterday. Actually, since she is watching over her father today, she doesn't need to stay awake the whole night like before, and she can still get some sleep.
"No, you go back." Qiao Dongliang said very firmly: "Zijin, do you want to stay?"
Qiao Zijin was stunned, and immediately replied: "I will definitely stay. But Dad, can you please tell me how I can go home right now, change my clothes, and then take over Nan Nan's shift?"
"Okay." Qiao Dongliang nodded, which was considered as an agreement.
Ding Jiayi breathed a sigh of relief and asked Qiao Zijin to go back quickly. Of course, she took the opportunity to go home and rest for a while and recuperate before coming to the hospital.
After Qiao Zijin left, Ding Jiayi sat down beside Qiao Dongliang's bed and said, "Old Qiao, what's wrong with you today? Do you know that you scared Zijin just now? You..." Ding Jiayi hesitated, not knowing how to describe Qiao Dongliang just now.
"What happened to me just now?" Qiao Dongliang asked Ding Jiayi.
"No, nothing." Ding Jiayi shook her head repeatedly. Old Qiao was the patient, and the patient was the most important. Wasn't that enough? Qiao Nan, that dead girl, got a good deal, and Zijin had to do all the hard work.
While Qiao Dongliang was talking to Ding Jiayi, Qiao Nan peeled an apple for Qiao Dongliang and carefully cut the apple flesh into pieces to make it easier for Qiao Dongliang to eat.
In fact, not only Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin thought Qiao Dongliang was weird, but Qiao Nan also felt the same way.
Even though her father refused to let her stay and rejected her in a very blunt manner, Qiao Nan did not feel any negative emotions of disgust.
But Qiao Nan couldn't understand why her father suddenly became like this.
When Qiao Zijin returned, three hours had passed.
Even in summer, it's dark outside at midday.
"Are you okay?" Ding Jiayi asked with concern. In fact, after dark, Ding Jiayi regretted it. If she had known earlier, she should have accompanied her eldest daughter to run this trip. The society nowadays is not as peaceful and safe as before. What if Zijin encountered something on the road and was bullied by others?
"It's nothing. What could possibly happen?" Qiao Zijin said in a bad mood.
When she got home, the first thing she did was to wash herself, get something to eat, and then lie down on the bed and sleep for two hours.
But on the way here, Qiao Zijin was sweating all over again, and her clothes were so wet that they stuck to her back, which meant that the previous bath was in vain. Qiao Zijin was of course in a bad mood.
"Do you want me to stay with you tonight?" Ding Jiayi quickly grabbed a towel to wipe Qiao Zijin's sweat and served her.
Ding Jiayi's attitude towards serving Qiao Zijin was three times more earnest than when she took care of Qiao Dongliang, as if she was serving her ancestor.
"No, you have to go to work tomorrow." Qiao Zijin refused. If her mother didn't go to work, she wouldn't get paid. If her mother had no salary, how would she pay the tuition when school started?
Although she had planned to rely on the Zhu family to find a good job after graduating from high school, she still wanted to graduate from high school: "You have to stay with me. I will definitely not be in a good mood at work tomorrow. Mom, you and Qiao Nan go back. I can do it alone."
Ding Jiayi smiled at her eldest daughter's concern: "Okay, you take good care of your dad. Mom will go back first."
"Nannan, you should go back too." Seeing Ding Jiayi just walk away by herself without taking Qiao Nan with her, which was completely different from the nervous Qiao Zijin just now, a "chuan" character appeared on Qiao Dongliang's forehead, and he just reminded Qiao Nan: "Be careful on the way back, take the main road, don't walk."
"I understand, Dad. I'll go back then." Qiao Nan nodded, then got up and left.
As soon as Qiao Nan left the hospital, she was stopped by Ding Jiayi who had left earlier: "Let me ask you, have you and your father ever done anything with your sister behind my back?"
"Don't worry, I don't know what my dad's condition is now. It's too late for me to do anything." Qiao Nan shook off Ding Jiayi's hand and decided not to follow Ding Jiayi. She could go back by herself.
