In the blink of an eye, another day passed. Early in the morning, just as the sky was getting light, there was a sound of footsteps outside.
At this time, many people who were taking care of the patients had already packed up their things, went to the backyard to find some firewood, and started to cook some porridge and meals.
Suddenly they heard a noise outside and they all trotted over, opened the door and looked outside.
It didn't matter what they saw, the scene outside immediately made everyone stunned.
An old lady in simple clothes was carefully supporting another elderly man in a military coat.
This was obviously a very normal scene, but the old man was followed by two young men with file bags in their hands and stern eyes.
A man limped behind them, his face full of anxiety.
The young nurse quickly put down what she was holding and came over: "Comrades, who are you looking for?"
The young man holding the file bag nodded slightly to the nurse and said, "Hello, comrade. I want to look for Comrade Zhu Xiuli. I wonder which ward she is in."
The young nurse smiled and said, "You are the family members of Comrade Zhu Xiuli, right? He is in Ward 13, Bed 42."
The young man thanked the young nurse, followed the old man and walked quickly to Ward 13.
The limping man behind him quickly called out to the nurse, "Comrade nurse, I want to ask how is Comrade Zhu Xiuli's injury?
Is her injury serious? How has she been doing in the past few days?
Several questions in a row are actually all one question.
Just as the young nurse was about to answer, she heard someone calling for help from the ward not far away.
She smiled apologetically at the man and said, “You can ask the doctors when they come to work later.
I have things to do here....”
"You are busy, you are busy."
The lame man had a dejected look on his face, looking at the ward not far away, feeling uneasy.
At this moment, the old lady who had been vying to look after Zhu Xiuli came over on tiptoe: "Hey, you are Comrade Zhu Xiuli's family member, right?"
The lame man quickly stood up straight, a smile appeared on his handsome face: "Hello!"
The old lady slapped her thigh and said, "You don't know, when Comrade Zhu Xiuli was first sent here, she was covered in blood.
We saw it clearly, it was scary.”
A man sneered: "Why didn't we see it?
When he was brought over, his wounds had already been bandaged.
At most, a little blood will seep out, how can it be as serious as you say? "
The old lady didn't expect that someone would ruin her show at this time, and she was so angry that her face turned red and her neck became thick.
The lame man felt uneasy about what they said, and for a moment he didn't know who to listen to.
On the other side, Zheng Xiang, when his secretary opened the door, opened his eyes wide to see his daughter whose half body was wrapped like a mummy. The old man, who had gone through many ups and downs in his life, instantly had tears in his eyes.
The old woman next to him couldn't even maintain the most basic manners and staggered towards the bed.
Zhu Xiuli had not woken up yet. The woman sleeping in the corner suddenly heard the noise and stood up from the corner.
He looked at the people in front of him warily: "Excuse me, who are you?"
This commotion also woke Zhu Xiuli up. Seeing her mother seemed to have aged ten years overnight, she choked up and after a long time, she finally shouted, "Dad, Mom."
Zhu Wenhua rushed in front of Zhu Xiuli and reached out to slap her.
While filming, he said in a hoarse voice: "You rashly came here by yourself, and something like this happened.
Do you know how worried we are?
We received a call saying that you......"
The old woman didn't even have time to say the next word before she burst into tears.
When the woman heard that they were Zhu Xiuli's parents, she immediately felt relieved.
But from another perspective, her nose felt a little sour again.
Now that her parents are here, does that mean she won’t have to take care of them anymore?
That means there will be no salary for the rest of her life. Thinking of this, the woman felt happy for Zhu Xiuli, but also felt a little bitter in her heart.
Zhu Wenhua's movements were very light, and he patted Zhu Xiuli's intact arm.
But in Zhu Xiuli's eyes, this gentle pat felt as heavy as a thousand pounds.
Not only did it hit her heart, it was like a heavy punch hitting her heart.
Zheng Xiang walked slowly into the room. The secretary next to him knew that he couldn't stand for long, so he quickly found two benches for the two old men to sit down.
The other burly man stood upright at the door with his legs half-open and his hands behind his back.
Zheng Xiang looked back and forth at his daughter several times, and said with red eyes: "It's good that you are okay, it's good that you are okay.
Don’t you want to see...? "
Zheng Xiang subconsciously turned his head to look over, only to find that Zhao Yisheng did not follow him.
He quickly winked at the secretary beside him. The secretary understood, walked outside, and dragged the timid Zhao Yisheng over.
He and Zhao Yisheng were both Zheng Xiang's disciples in the past, and their relationship was very good.
Now seeing how useless he is, I really want to kick him.
Zhao Yisheng kept retreating and whispered, "Xiu... Comrade Zhu Xiuli, are you okay?"
Secretary Zhang said angrily, "Are you okay? You are wrapped up and can't move. You can imagine how badly you were injured.
They come here just to find you, traveling thousands of miles by train to find you.
Now that he's injured like this because of you, don't you want to go in and take a look?"
Zhao Yisheng's face turned pale. Hearing that Zhu Xiuli was injured was more painful than digging out his heart.
He took a deep breath and let Secretary Zhang pull him to the ward.
There was deathly silence in the ward. After Zheng Xiang said that, Zhu Xiuli seemed to know something and stared at the door without blinking.
Seeing this expression, the old couple felt bitter inside.
After Zheng Xiang got into trouble, in order to prevent his wife and daughter from being implicated, he quickly published an announcement in the newspaper to sever ties with them, and then even changed his daughter's surname to Zhu.
The most important reason why Zhu Xiuli was not told the news of Zhao Yisheng's return was that Zhao Yisheng was injured in the flood.
As parents, how can we not think about our children?
When Zhao Yisheng appeared at the door, Zhu Xiuli struggled to sit up from the bed, looking at the man she hadn't seen for eight or nine years with tears in her eyes.
Zhao Yisheng walked towards the bed step by step, using all his strength to control his legs so that he no longer limped as ugly as before.
