Chapter 15

Hearing the phone rang, Mother Xu looked at the unfinished sweater in her hand, and could only answer the phone with one free hand.

The caller was a young man whom he didn't know. He said that Xu Chen was in a car accident.

After hearing this sentence, Mama Xu was so dumb that she didn't even know that the sweater had fallen to the floor.

She and Xu Chen have lived together stumblingly for more than 20 years. Although many things have happened during this time, and she also has a lot of dissatisfaction with Xu Chen, but Xu Chen is her husband and the head of the family after all. She never thought about it. If something happened to him, I never thought about what would happen to me if something happened to him.

After hanging up the phone, Mama Xu stood there for a while, but immediately, Mama Xu came back to her senses. She calmly and quickly found her ID card, medical insurance card, passbook, and a few changes of clothes, and put them into a bag After that, she put on a few coats indiscriminately, and then went out.

Standing on the street, the cold air penetrated into her body like a snake through the gaps in her clothes. Mama Xu shivered from the cold. She knew that the weather outside was very cold, but she never expected it to be this cold. , but time waits for no one. The young man on the phone said that if the money is not paid first, the hospital will not allow the operation.

Although I don't know the specific situation of Xu Chen, but judging from the need for surgery, it seems that the injury is quite serious. Xu Ma stood trembling on the side of the road and waited for a long time before waiting for a taxi.

Along the way, amid Xu Ma's worries, the driver kept nagging, saying that it was not easy to drive in this kind of weather, that it was luck that Xu Ma met him, etc., until finally, the driver asked Xu Ma directly for it. A price that was three times higher than usual, and he still had an expression of taking it for granted.

Xu's mother was anxious and didn't care about it, so she gave the money directly.

After entering the hospital, Mother Xu met the young man who called her. The young man said that Dad Xu’s car collided with a truck because of the slippery road. Dad Xu passed out at that time. There were no people on the road in this weather. , if the truck driver didn't wake up in time, both of them must be finished in the end.

The young man is the younger brother of the truck driver, and he came here only after answering the truck driver's call. His family doesn't have much money, so it's pretty good to be able to send his brother to the operating table for a while. As for Xu Chen, he can only leave it to himself. family members.

While listening to the young man, Xu's mother went through various procedures for Xu Chen. On the other hand, the hospital also began to perform various preoperative examinations for Xu Chen, and the operating room also began to prepare surgical equipment.

When Xu Chen was finally sent to the operating room, Mama Xu breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing the young man next to him with a worried face, Mama Xu also had the energy to talk to the young man.

Xu Tong walked in the crowded shopping mall and threw the things he liked into the shopping cart. Although there were no people outside, there were really not many people in this large air-conditioned shopping mall.

Because of the abnormal weather, people basically don't like to go out, but this meal must be eaten, so many people will buy a lot of food at once and store it at home to eat slowly. Anyway, it is already December and the weather is cold. Keeping fresh is not a problem, and besides, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, anyway, I have to buy it at that time, it is better to buy it all at once, so as to save it from being frozen again.

There are quite a few people with this kind of mentality, so during this period of time, there are many shopping malls, and Xu Tong is not conspicuous among them.

I bought a lot of snacks, dried fruits, candies, and melon seeds. I ordered several boxes of sausages and bacon. I also bought a lot of fresh vegetables and fruits. I even packed a large bag of seafood balls in the refrigerator. I bought a lot of thermal underwear, jackets...

In short, Xu Tong didn't stop this crazy shopping until he only had [-] money left in his hand. Xu Tong bought a lot of things, but most of them were put into the processing workshop, and only a few packs were put on the bright side Fresh vegetables and Xu Ma's favorite meatballs, even so, Xu Tong's hands are full of things.

Back home, Xu Tong kicked the door several times, but there was no movement in the room. Standing in the empty corridor, Xu Tong felt very bad.

He opened the door, and sure enough, Mother Xu was not at home.

Mama Xu is a clean person, and she tidies up the whole house every day, but today, something is wrong, the unfinished sweater on the sofa is put aside indiscriminately, and the balls of thread roll away for a long time, obviously It was placed in a hurry, the phone next to the sofa seemed to be placed a little askew, and the clothes in the cabinet seemed not very neat.

The foot of the bed in the master bedroom was a little messy. Xu Tong lifted the mattress and saw that the passbook that Xu Ma had hidden here was gone. The drawer under the coffee table in the living room hadn’t been closed in time. It contained Dad Xu’s ID card and medical insurance card. It was gone, Xu Tong narrowed his eyes, and vaguely had a guess.

At this time, the phone rang, and it was a call from Grandma Xu's clinical patients.

She said that the old lady hadn't eaten all day today, because the young man who came to deliver the food every day didn't come, and she didn't know where he went, because the old lady was very angry, and now she was losing her temper, and she didn't even want to hit the bottle .

"Then don't fight."

Xu Tong replied coldly and hung up the phone, joke, what's the use of talking to her, besides, who is the old lady, she really thinks she is her grandma, even if you want to be this grandma, she I still don't want to admit it.

Xu Tong ignored the old lady's unreasonable troubles, she turned around and found a map, and traced the route from home to the hospital with a red pen.

There seems to be no hospital near this road. If Dad Xu is hospitalized, then it is very likely that he lives in the same hospital as Grandma Xu. Thinking of this, Xu Tong immediately got up and wanted to go to the hospital.

At this time, the phone rang again.

"I don't care if she eats or not. I'm not the one who's sick. Tell her, whether you want to be hit or not, don't beat me down!" Xu Tong answered the phone, and said so before the other party could speak. Xu Tong's tone It's very bad, she doesn't have a good impression of these patients who eat food, they all say that they cannibals have short mouths, but they are different, they still eat food, and their mouths are still broken, it's reasonable to eat and drink every day!

"Oh, the tone is so bad, who offended you." In the microphone, a nice female voice came out, and Xu Tong was stunned for a moment before realizing that this is Xu Mengqi. It has been more than a year, and Xu Mengqi can actually call return? ? !
"What's the matter with you?" Xu Tong asked formulaically.

"What can I do? Anyway, I grew up together. I just want to remind you: it's dark, don't walk around."

As if thinking of something, Xu Tong had a bad feeling.

Sure enough, as the phone was hung up, the sky outside seemed to darken all of a sudden. It was so dark that nothing could be seen clearly. It seemed that a heavy rain was brewing in the sky. There were a few rays of light flashing deep in the clouds, followed by rumbling thunder.

Xu Tong stared at the black sky and frowned. Is this the beginning of the end of the world!

Xu Tong fumbled to turn on the light. In the bright living room, Xu Tong called the hospital, wanting to make sure that Dad Xu was there, but the phone was busy and couldn't get through!
After thinking for a while, Xu Tong wrapped herself into a ball, put on the phone, and then found Dad Xu's raincoat and put it on.

When he went out, because he couldn't wait for the car, Xu Tong simply walked and kept walking, letting the big raindrops hit his body, but Xu Tong's forward speed never changed.

The sky was very dark, because it was not night, so the street lights were not on, but the shops and houses on both sides of the road were turned on for lighting, and the little lights made Xu Tong feel a lot of comfort.

Finally, she got a taxi, and when she got in the car, Xu Tong was complained by the driver, saying that the raincoat made her car dirty. The driver was a woman, about 40 years old, with a lot of thoughts, so she got in the car. She had negotiated the price with Xu Tong before, but even so, she still complained that Xu Tong had soiled her bed along the way.

Xu Tong ignored the female driver, she knew that it was not easy for everyone, especially those who came out to pull people in rainy days, but since she gave the money, then you should be responsible for pulling her to the destination, so blah What can be changed if it is crooked.

Seeing that Xu Tong didn't pay attention to her, the female driver's voice became louder and louder, until finally, she just put the words on: You dirty her car, you have to pay for it!
When the female driver spied on her again, Xu Tong couldn't help reminding her to look at the road, it was so dark, was there any street lights, and the driver was so unreliable, was it really all right?

It turns out, very problematic.

When a figure suddenly appeared in front, it was too late to brake. In a short time, the female driver could only turn the steering wheel quickly.

Maybe Xu Tong's spirit is very strong, but the body, hehe.

Before passing out, Xu Tong felt that she was really stupid. There were so many protective equipment in the workshop, why did she forget to put one on for herself?

Xu Tong didn't know that the world that woke up again would give her a big 'surprise'.
