Mingming, Auntie has something to tell you. But I hope you won't be too sad after hearing it..." Ye Li felt that he was talking nonsense. Who wouldn't be sad when faced with the separation of life and death?
"Auntie... or let's wait until my dad comes back." Wei Mingming seemed to realize something when he heard Ye Li say that. His hand holding the iron kettle shook suddenly, and the water from the kettle splashed onto the stove, evaporating into steam and disappearing into the air.
"Okay..." Ye Li found it difficult to speak in front of Wei Mingming.
Ye Li drank the hot water while Wei Mingming was distracted. The room was so quiet that one could hear people talking outside.
Suddenly, there was a creaking sound and the sound of a door being pushed open broke the silence in the room.
"Why is it snowing on such a nice day? Looks like I can only get half a day's wages today." Xiao Wei's father pushed the door open and walked in, brushing off the snow that had fallen on his body.
"Dad, you're back!" Xiao Wei came back to his senses immediately when he saw his father coming back.
"Director Ye is here!" Xiao Wei's father immediately smiled when he saw Ye Li.
"Hello, uncle. You got off work early today." Ye Li stood up and greeted him.
...
...
"Yes, it was a nice day but suddenly it started snowing. It's hard to do my job outdoors, so I came back early. Director Ye, is there anything that brought you to my house?" Xiao Wei's father asked.
"Yes, there is something. Uncle, please sit down."
"Okay, okay. You sit down too."
After Xiao Wei's father sat down, Ye Li told him the news of Xiao Wei's death.
Xiaowei's father originally had a smile on his face, but after hearing Ye Li's words, the smile froze on his face.
Xiao Wei's younger brother tied his head very low, and his face was almost invisible.
"Director Ye, which hospital is Xiao Wei in now? I'll be there right now."
"I'll go with you. The hospital is not far from our factory." Ye Li's vision was a little blurry. She could see that Xiao Wei's father was suppressing his emotions.
"Dad, I want to go too!"
Wei Mingming, who had been keeping his head down and silent, raised his head, and tears were already all over his face.
"Wait for me at home. It's so cold outside, and you're too weak to go out!" Xiao Wei's father stopped his son from going with him.
"But I want to see my brother! Just let me go!" Xiao Wei refused to stay at home alone. He wanted to take another look at the brother who loved him so much.
"No! You stay at home."
In the end, the father kept Wei Mingming at home. Fearing that he would follow secretly, the father locked the door.
"Let's go, Director Ye." After saying this, Xiao Wei's father dived into the falling snow.
In the hospital, Xiao Wei's father saw his son. Xiao Wei seemed to have passed away peacefully without any pain.
"Son, you are finally free from the pain. When you are reborn in your next life, remember to choose a good family. Don't be born in our family again. You have suffered a lot in this life." Xiao Wei's father held his son's cold hand and whispered.
Ye Li couldn't bear to see such a heart-wrenching scene. She felt that her tears were out of control and she even had difficulty breathing. Ye Li simply left the room and let Xiao Wei and his father be alone for a while.
About half an hour later, Xiao Wei's father walked out of the room.
"Director Ye, thank you. It is Xiao Wei's honor to have such a good leader like you. Leave the rest to me, you can go back."
"Uncle, take care of yourself. I'm going back now." Ye Li knew that any words of comfort would be futile at this moment, so he simply said nothing.
"Well, let's go back."
Ye Li took a deep look at the room where Xiao Wei was lying, then turned and left.
Seven days later, Ye Li attended Xiao Wei's funeral on behalf of the factory. The funeral was very simple, with only a few of Xiao Wei's friends and relatives present.
These people witnessed together the process of Xiao Wei disappearing from this world.
After attending the funeral and returning to the factory, Ye Li was still unable to get over the sadness. The Chinese New Year was only a month away, and she could not give out the special contribution trophy she had specially customized for Xiao Wei.
Ye Li had originally planned to present trophies and prizes to several outstanding people at the end-of-year conference, including Xiao Wei.
"Is this the trophy for Xiao Wei?" Liu Hua walked into Ye Li's office with a stack of documents and saw the trophy in Ye Li's hand.
"Yes. But there was no chance to send it out. The doctor said Xiao Wei could have lived until next summer. But Xiao Wei worked day and night to create benefits for the factory, which induced cerebral hemorrhage and ultimately he could not be saved."
"This is the path he chose. Between living for three months or living for a year, he chose to live for three months. I think these three months were the most fulfilling time of his life. He put all his energy into work, into what he wanted to do most." Liu Hua could see that Ye Li's mood was still not right, she patted Ye Li on the shoulder, signaling her to quickly get out of the negative mood.
"Yeah. Since it's my own choice, there's nothing to regret."
"Yes. Ye Li, here are the documents that I have reviewed. Please review them again. If there is no problem, please sign them." Liu Hua placed a stack of documents in front of Ye Li.
"By the way, what about the advertisement you mentioned last time? I'm still looking forward to seeing our clothing brand on TV." Liu Hua had been thinking about it since he heard Ye Li talk about it last time.
"It's already been filmed. Our commercial will premiere at 7 o'clock tonight. Sister Liu, remember to watch it."
"Really? Then I must stay in front of the TV and watch it carefully!" Liu Hua decided to go home early tonight and turn on the TV as soon as he got home.
"It was Sister Liu who reminded me, otherwise I would have forgotten about it." Ye Li also planned to go home early to watch the commercial, which was aired during prime time. She wanted to watch it with her whole family!
Not only Ye Li and Liu Hua, but everyone else in the factory also knew that there would be an advertisement for their factory at 7 o'clock tonight, even though they didn't know where they got the news from.
"Well, after work, let's go to Lao Liu's house and watch TV. There's an advertisement for our factory's clothing tonight."
"Who told you that our factory is shooting a commercial?"
"I heard from the sales department that this advertisement is very valuable! It cost a lot of money!"
"You have to watch it! See how our factory's advertisement is shot."
"Okay. It's settled then. Let's go to Lao Liu's house and watch it together after work!"
"no problem!"
When it was time to get off work, Ye Li went straight back to the courtyard without staying.
As soon as Ye Li got home, he went to his mother-in-law's room and turned on the TV.
"Ye Li, why did you want to watch TV today?" Ye Li seldom comes to watch TV on weekdays.
"Mom, there will be an advertisement for our factory at 7 o'clock. Let's watch it together." Ye Li called Zhao Xingmei to come over and watch the advertisement together.
