Aunt Li and Uncle Liu broke up, there was no scene of two people flirting with each other on the court and in the park. The two became familiar strangers, and Uncle Liu became the person Aunt Li least wanted to face. Uncle Liu knew that he was in the wrong and wanted to take the initiative to resolve the conflict and come forward to please him. Every time Aunt Li was frivolous and left with something, without giving Uncle Liu any chance to explain.
Uncle Liu's heart was burning and had no choice but to continue begging Aunt Li for help. Aunt Li frowned, her head shook like rattle , and refused, "Old Liu, don't make things difficult for me. Every family has difficult sutras. If you don't handle the family's affairs well, no one can help you!"
Aunt Li said it right, and Uncle Liu couldn't force it.
Time is the best healing medicine, which can wash away all scars on the soul. However, as time goes by, the bumps in Uncle Liu's heart are like piles of sand on the beach, and the more they pile.
Aunt Li's indifference to him, his son's incomprehension and suspicion, was very annoyed. The bottle of wine that he had not touched for many years was brought to the dining table again, thinking that he was drunk to relieve his worries.
In recent days, Uncle Liu has never come to the court again. Without Uncle Liu, Aunt Li not only wasn't happy, but she felt empty. When playing basketball, I was a little absent-minded.
During the intermission, Uncle Li, who lives in the same community with Uncle Liu, explained the reason. Uncle Liu suffers from severe gout. Recently, excessive drinking has caused the disease to recur, and knee pain is difficult to walk. He underwent surgery in the first hospital of the city, took gout stone , and was hospitalized for treatment.
Aunt Li raised her eyebrows, and there was a hint of anxiety in her eyes. Aunt Li, who was sitting next to him, wiped his sweat, looked at Aunt Li who was sitting in a daze, and whispered in a low voice, "Xiao Li, what's wrong? Are you worried about Lao Liu?"
Aunt Li turned red and retorted, "Who is worried about him? He has his own son, what's my business." Aunt Li patted Xiao Li's hand and said softly, "At our age, the loess is past his waist, don't think too complicated."
Aunt Li did not answer, stared at the sky in a daze. A few white clouds in the sky floated quietly into the distance.
The next day, Aunt Li came to the inpatient department of the First Hospital of the City with a bag of fruit alone.
Aunt Li Xiao found Uncle Liu’s bed number at the nurse station and came to Uncle Liu’s ward. Uncle Liu was lying alone on the hospital bed, with gauze tied to his knees, his face was pale and bloodless. On his thin cheeks, the two cheekbones were protruding there like two hills.
Aunt Li suddenly felt sad, and her past resentment faded a lot.
Aunt Li Xiao Li walked to Uncle Liu's bedside. Uncle Liu's eyes lit up when he saw it was Aunt Li Xiao Li, and he was surprised. A flower bloomed on his face and said, "Xiao Li, you are here." After that, he was about to get up.
Aunt Li gently pressed his right hand and said angrily: "Don't move, lie down."
Uncle Liu lay down obediently, staring at Aunt Li's face with bright eyes.
"Is there anything dirty on my face?" Aunt Li's face turned red and she asked in a low voice.
Uncle Liu grinned and said, "There is no dirty thing. I haven't seen you for several days. I just want to look at you a few more."
A red sun rose in each other's hearts, dispelling the coldness in each other's hearts. There was a hint of care and joy in their eyes.
Aunt Li Xiao Li asked while peeling an apple, "Why are you the only one? Why didn't your son come?"
Uncle Liu's face turned dark and his eyes were a little silent. He murmured, "My son is busy with work and goes on a business trip. His daughter-in-law has to work and takes care of his granddaughter. They found me a nurse."
"Where is the nurse?" Aunt Li was surprised. She has not found a nurse since she came in.
"The nurse suddenly had some urgent matters at home. He said he would come back soon. I guess something was delayed and he has not come back yet." Uncle Liu also felt strange and turned around and looked outside the door.
Aunt Li didn't ask, but found that Uncle Liu's face was red, his legs were clamped, and his body was shaking.
Aunt Li squinted her eyes and asked tentatively, "Old Liu, do you want to go to the bathroom?"
Uncle Liu seemed to have a piece of red cloth covered her face. He didn't dare to look directly into Aunt Li's eyes, and said softly, "The caregiver has been away for too long, I really can't help it..."Uncle Liu looked like a child who made a mistake, and looked funny.
Aunt Li smiled and joked: "Gout caused by high uric acid, you can't hold your urine, be careful to cause other problems." After that, she bent down to look for a urinary under the bed.
Uncle Liu's face turned red like a pig's liver, and he said shyly: "Xiao Li, it's not suitable. I guess the nurse will come back later. I can still bear it, I don't need you...."
Aunt Li ignored it, found the urinal and lifted the quilt and put it in.
Uncle Liu released the pressure in his body and his expression became much more relaxed. Seeing Aunt Li's eyes, there was a little more love.
Aunt Li poured the urinal, cleaned it in the bathroom, and put it under the bed.
Aunt Li Xiao Li just sat down, Uncle Liu grabbed Aunt Li Xiao Li's hand and said tenderly: "Xiao Li, I'm sorry! Although it was my son's request, the problem lies with me. I didn't handle this matter well, which made you wronged."
Aunt Li Xiao Li wanted to take his hand back embarrassedly. Uncle Liu grabbed it tightly. Xiao Li sighed secretly and let Uncle Liu grab it.
"Let's talk about the matter between us in the future. The most important thing for you now is to maintain your health and recover as soon as possible. Everyone is still waiting to play badminton with you." Aunt Li did not give a positive answer.
"Xiao Li, don't worry! I will find a son..." Uncle Liu looked a little anxious and wanted to continue the topic.
At this moment, the caregiver came back. He happened to see Uncle Liu holding Aunt Li's hand, guessing that the family members were coming. He hurriedly stepped forward and explained, "Uncle Liu, is this an aunt?"
Aunt Li's face turned red and he didn't say anything.
Uncle Liu stared at him and complained dissatisfiedly: "Xiao Wang, what's wrong with you? You will come back in a while, why did you come back?
Xiao Wang smiled embarrassedly and replied guiltily: "Uncle Liu, I'm very sorry! The child was naughty and disobedient, so the teacher called me to go to school and the talk could have been completed in a while, but as a result, hey. . . "He shook his head and sighed.
The elderly were married to each other. When they heard that it was a child's problem, their resentment suddenly decreased a little.
Aunt Li gave the caregiver a blank look and said coldly: "Since your child has something to do at home, please let someone take care of Lao Liu temporarily! If I hadn't come here, Lao Liu might have had some problems with urine. You are a caregiver and you will definitely not be able to escape! "
" Yes, yes,. . . "Xiao Wang's back was sweating coldly, and the old man's sharp eyes made the nurse feel like a ray of light on his back.
Nurse came over for infusion. Aunt Li asked about Uncle Liu's rehabilitation and treatment situation, and stayed with him for another half an hour before leaving.
Aunt Li left. Xiao Wang breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Uncle Liu, Auntie is so nice to you! Do things neatly and speak simply. Uncle, you are so lucky. "
Uncle Liu sighed and murmured: "She is not my wife! "
" Oh. . . "Xiao Wang seemed to understand and nodded with a smile.
From now on, Aunt Li visited Uncle Liu every day and also cooked soup to Uncle Liu to bring drinks.
Aunt Li's careful care, Uncle Liu was happy every day, his mental state was good, and his health was recovering. Aunt Li helped Uncle Liu take a slow walk in the corridor, like an old couple for many years.
Two more days Uncle Liu is about to be discharged from the hospital. Aunt Li and Uncle Liu are walking in the corridor of the inpatient department and meet Uncle Liu's son.
Uncle Liu's son came over to see his father today and happened to encounter this warm scene. He felt indescribable in his heart: touching and impulse, hope and disappointment, thanks and doubts, and all kinds of emotions are intertwined, and he doesn't know how to speak for a while.
Uncle Liu's son's eyes flashed with a hint of alertness, and he said expressionlessly: "Aunt Li! Hello, thank you for coming to see my dad."
Aunt Li quickly pulled her hand out of Uncle Liu's arm and replied, "I heard that your father is sick, I'll come and take a look. "
"Oh, you and my dad are not related to each other, and you don't need your care. "Uncle Liu's son was lukewarm and said, with thorns in his words.
Aunt Li said to Uncle Liu awkwardly: "Old Liu, since your son is here." I still have something to do at home, so I went back. "
After saying that, he turned around and walked quickly.
"Xiao Li, don't worry! Just sit and leave, Xiao Li. . . "Uncle Liu's legs were uncomfortable and he was anxious and dared not chase after him.
The son held him in a cold manner and snorted, "Dad, I'm not telling you, so that you can avoid contact with her." Seeing that you are sick and come to visit you, I think it is because I have nothing to do, either a traitor or a thief. "
"Shut up, I've been sick for so many days, you've only been here a few times. I almost pissed off when I came here once. "Uncle Liu moved towards the hospital bed while scolding his son angrily.
"Dad, I'm not doing too much business. I'm not here to see you today. "The son explained aggrievedly.
Uncle Liu sat on the bed and chatted with his son for a while. The son called him at a time. Uncle Liu looked upset and told him to leave quickly. The son happened to have a social engagement and said, "When I was discharged from the hospital, I will pick you up again. "
Uncle Liu snorted, without a response.
Late at night, the sultry earth had long faded away. The corridors of the hospital were no longer the hustle and bustle of the week, and occasionally someone walked by.
The nurse Xiao Wang lay beside Uncle Liu's bed and snored. Uncle Liu was worried and couldn't fall asleep. He tilted his head and looked out the window.
Outside the window was quiet, only the branches and leaves of green trees were gently waving at the window. Under the faint moonlight, the slight rustling of the leaves was intoxicating and a little hazy.
Uncle Liu squinted his eyes and thought to himself: "After recovering and being discharged from the hospital, you must be with Xiao Li no matter what! No matter how great the resistance is, you must be together, sure! ”
