Chapter 1289 Even a drop in the ocean is respected
The sound of firecrackers marks the end of the year, and the spring breeze brings warmth to Tusu. Thousands of households always replace old talismans with new peaches.
From the ice surface of Shichahai to the city wall of Yongdingmen, the explosions one after another made the window frames rustle.
The entire city of Yanjing seemed to be overturned by the sound of firecrackers.
In the large courtyard of Nianwei Hospital, the rumbling sound had just passed, and the deafening firecrackers had just baptized the newly built hospital. The red paper on the ground fluttered in the wind and danced around the tall buildings.
“Happy New Year!”
After setting off the firecrackers, Wang Defa handed a cigarette to Lei Jin and Wang Qi who were on duty tonight, and stood on the high steps looking at the frozen snow country.
"Have you eaten the New Year's Eve dinner? Go and keep the old man company!" Lei Jin protected the matches he handed over with both hands, lit the cigarette and patted his hands.
"I've already had lunch! Brother Xiao Zhang is with me, I'll stay at the hospital for a while and go over later!" Wang Defa nodded, "Xiao Li is not here, after all, I'm the oldest, I can take care of him for a while longer!"
Wang Qi nodded and said, "Then finish eating the dumplings in the cafeteria, and then ride your bike back to the nursing home!"
"Ok!"
Wang Defa agreed and waved his hand, "It's just right to take the dumplings with you and go to the ward to check it out!"
Today is New Year's Eve, and there are still many patients in hospital who cannot be discharged.
Li Xiangnan asked the canteen to prepare flour and pork in advance, and asked them to make dumplings for everyone today and send them to the families of the patients who had not returned home.
The internal medicine ward at this moment.
The person sitting in the wheelchair changed from Ge Dongxu to Gong Xinmei.
She looked up at the fireworks outside the window that filled the sky, lost in thought.
"Mom, let me wash your feet! It's warm so you can go to bed!" Ge Dongxu came in from the door, holding a thermos and a washbasin in his hands. He squatted in front of his mother and pretended to wash her feet.
"Son, it's mom who should be taking care of you, but I ask you to wash mom's feet. It's hard for you!" Gong Xinmei spoke with a guilty tone, and her voice was even weaker, and she was a little out of breath.
Ge Dongxu shook his head and looked steadily into his mother's slightly red eyes, "Mom, this is all I should do. I'm grown up now, and it's time for me to show my filial piety to you!"
He took off his mother's shoes and socks, lowered his head and squatted quietly, massaging Gong Xinmei gently and carefully, his eyes already wet.
"Son, I'm sorry for you. I can't accompany you to get married and have children. I can't help you raise the baby..."
"Mom!" Ge Dongxu raised his head, forced a smile and shook his head, "Today is New Year's Eve, can we not talk about this?"
Gong Xinmei reached out and rubbed his head, and said with emotion: "My son has really grown up! That's great!"
She grabbed her son's hand and pointed out the window. "I remember when you were little, you loved Chinese New Year very much... We haven't had a proper Chinese New Year celebration for ten years. Now I can see you stand up and talk to me. I'm very happy and satisfied!"
"Mom, this is all thanks to Brother Nan. I will remember it!"
Gong Xinmei nodded, "I am even happier that you know how to be grateful! Son, I hope that you will become a person with a conscience in the future! Remember who is good to you and who has done you a favor, and strive to be better and give back to them..."
"Mom!" Ge Dongxu held his mother's hand, "I know!"
He squatted down and washed, rubbed and kneaded the pair of feet, which he had never stared at so seriously before, doing it more seriously than anything he had done before.
Bang!
Huge fireworks bloomed in the sky, neon lights blooming among the snowflakes.
Ge Dongxu turned his head and looked out the window: "Mom, what do you think Brother Nan is doing now?"
Gong Xinmei was stunned, and also looked out the window, smiling: "Maybe he is eating dumplings!"
Ge Dongxu said with an "oh", lowered his head and said seriously: "Mom, don't worry, I will definitely let you eat dumplings! You just have to be patient...wait for me to really grow up!"
"Okay, okay, I promise you!" Gong Xinmei caressed her son's face lovingly.
Outside the door, Wang Defa, who was holding a plate of dumplings, had red eyes. He took a deep breath, put a smile on his face, and pushed the door open with his foot.
"Want to eat dumplings? That's easy. Here, your brother Nan specially asked the canteen to make dumplings! Everyone who sees them can have a share today!"
"Oh, Dr. Wang, thank you so much!" Gong Xinmei's feet were in the basin and it was difficult to take them out, but her face showed a look of flattery.
Ge Dongxu, who was squatting, also stood up in astonishment, his face full of emotion, "Doctor Wang!"
"What are you standing there for? Eat it!" Wang Defa grinned, "Eat it while it's hot!"
As he spoke, he went to the bedside table to look for chopsticks and saw that the mother and daughter had had two white steamed buns and a plate of pickles for dinner on New Year's Eve. He sighed silently.
"Here, chopsticks!" He handed over the chopsticks, looked down, and found that Ge Dongxu was washing Aunt Gong's feet, so he smiled and said, "Go wash your hands first! Come back and eat dumplings!"
"Hey!" Ge Dongxu hurriedly wiped his mother's feet with a cloth, "Mom, put on your shoes. I'll go wash my hands and we'll eat dumplings when I come back!"
"Go quickly!" Gong Xinmei smiled.
Ge Dongxu ran away in a flash.
After he left, Wang Defa turned his gaze back from the door and frowned, "Aunt Gong, are you okay?"
Gong Xinmei smiled and said, "I am glad that I have managed to hold on until now! I am afraid that I don't have much time left!"
Being able to speak so calmly when facing death is a kind of courage in itself.
Wang De’s eyes were red as he forced a smile. “No, Aunt Gong, Xiao Li didn’t give you the Immortal Staff for nothing! We shouldn’t say that on New Year’s Day!”
"mom!"
Ge Dongxu hurried back into the ward, anxiously went to pick up the plate, and handed the dumplings to his mother with the first bite.
"Oh, this taste... it's filled with meat!" Gong Xinmei's eyes lit up after taking a bite, and she quickly urged, "Son, try it too! It's delicious, really delicious!"
Ge Dongxu picked up a dumpling and put it into his mouth, eating it slowly, bite by bite, feeling so satisfied.
"My mom said that Brother Nan is at home and must be eating dumplings right now,"
He turned his head to look out the window and felt that he and Li Xiangnan were looking at the same sky.
"Doctor Wang, do you think Brother Nan will remember these patients in the hospital in Yanjing City?"
Seeing his slightly dejected look, Wang Defa stepped forward and flicked his head, saying with a smile: "If he doesn't remember you, what are you eating? This is what Dean Li asked the canteen to prepare a long time ago. He's celebrating the New Year, so aren't you celebrating the New Year too!"
"Ge Dongxu! Ge Dongxu! There's a call from Director Li at the nurses' station!"
Suddenly, a nurse's voice was heard outside.
Wang Defa stood up and grinned, "I told you, how could our dean forget about you, forget about your little brother! Go and pick it up!"
"Dongxu, go quickly!" Gong Xinmei also urged.
"Hey, hey!" Ge Dongxu hurriedly put the plate into his mother's arms, rushed out of the ward, ran to the nurse station, picked up the phone, and called out "Brother Nan".
"Dongxu, Happy New Year!"
Li Xiangnan's signature deep voice came from the phone.
Ge Dongxu opened his mouth, his throat suddenly choked and he could no longer speak.
original.
Li Xiangnan always remembered him.
He cried because he was not just a drop in the ocean.
He is also a person who is cared about by others.
He is also respected.
To be loved.
"Brother Nan, Happy New Year!"
