Rehabilitation is very painful, especially at the beginning, when the tight Achilles tendon is pulled bit by bit, along with the stiff muscles.
Xiaoxiao has been afraid of pain since she was a child, but she has no choice but to practice no matter how afraid she is.
The temperature dropped to ten degrees below zero, and goose-feather-like snow was falling. In the rehabilitation room, Xiaoxiao was already sweating profusely after just walking back and forth, and every step she took was a bone-piercing pain.
In the corridor outside the rehabilitation room, Mo Yiyang stood by the window. He secretly looked at her practicing walking inside.
"For so many days, you didn't even give me a call when you were about to be discharged from the hospital. Gu Xiaoxiao, do you really not have me in your heart?"
The doctor patted his shoulder and said, "Director Mo"
Mo Yiyang turned around and said, "Dr. Zhou, how is her condition?"
"What you can see now is that she has worked very hard and can walk without external force. I have approved her to be discharged from the hospital and can go home for New Year's Eve."
Mo Yiyang looked in through the window. Every step she took was so difficult, but so solid. Her body would occasionally sway, just like a child learning to walk. After she stabilized herself, she continued walking forward.
The doctor seemed to see what he was thinking and asked, "Why don't you go in and see her and give her some encouragement?"
"She may not want to see me."
"How could it be? I think she misses you very much."
Mo Yiyang smiled bitterly, "Really Doctor Zhou, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. I'll ask you to take good care of her."
"good."
"Call me when she is discharged from the hospital and I will arrange a car to pick her up."
"Um."
After chatting for a few words, Mo Yiyang left. The snow outside was getting heavier and heavier. The sky was gray and gray, as if it was about to collapse. He was the only lonely figure in the long corridor, and snowflakes blew in. , fell on his sleeve, he didn't care, and walked forward with a heavy heart.
He will not interfere in Liu Wen's affairs anymore. The chief is already a turtle in the urn. Even if Liu Wen goes abroad and loses the financial support from her family, she will not be able to live well.
The most important thing is that since Gu Xiaoxiao does not accept him, there is no reason for him to take revenge on Liu Wen, and he does not need to wade into this muddy water.
But, do you really want to give up?
Mo Yiyang stopped and turned his head to look outside. Only then did he realize that his left arm was covered with snowflakes, and the ground outside was already completely white, and it was hard to tell where was where.
In the past few days, the smile has gone away from him, replaced by depression and irritability.
He waved his hand to brush away the snowflakes on his sleeves, and took a deep breath of the cold air. It was so cold that he couldn't help but shiver.
The Chinese New Year is coming again. At this time of year, he especially misses his old days in Shanghai. At that time, he made friends with sincerity. When he was upset, he would go out for a drink. Now, everyone around him was afraid of just a phone call. Because of his status, his friends are all friends at the drinking table. After a few drinks, he will talk to you about his life ideals. In fact, it is nonsense. He can't remember a word when he wakes up.
"Hey, Ye Ke, how are you doing these days?"
"I'm so busy that I don't even bother to eat."
"Be busy taking care of the two children at home."
"Hmm, you're right, Xixi caught a bad cold, Chenchen asked Xiaoyu to take care of her, my mother fell ill from exhaustion, and Xiaodong can't do it alone."
"Look for a nanny, you are not short of money."
"How can a nanny have peace of mind? If you don't have children, you don't understand."
"" Ye Ke's words directly touched his sore spot, "Okay, as long as you have a child, you understand. I can tell you, don't make my little wife sick."
¡°It¡¯s okay, it¡¯s okay, it¡¯s almost gone, but I¡¯m afraid it will happen again. Oh, I¡¯d rather be sick myself. Seeing them suffer makes me heartbroken.¡±
Thinking of Ye Ke, a tough man like him, saying such pretentious words like "It hurts my heart to see them suffer", Mo Yiyang got goosebumps all over the floor, "You should also take care of yourself."
"There's something wrong with you."
¡°I can¡¯t call you if I have nothing to do.¡±
"Hey, Lao Mo, when did you become so sticky? Haha, if you have nothing to do, come to Shanghai and see us. Don't sit in the office all day reading documents. Are you tired?"
¡°That¡¯s a good idea, okay, I¡¯ll make arrangements and go to your house to celebrate the New Year.¡±
"Okay, prepare the New Year's money. I have two children at home."
"Of course, I have to give a big gift to my brother-in-law and my wife-in-law."
"That's it, I have to watch the fire, otherwiseI can't forgive Xiaodong if I confuse him. "
"Okay, housewife."
After hanging up the phone, he felt much relieved. The winter here is too depressing. For him, the New Year is just socializing. He really doesn't want to do this, so he might as well go outside and relax.
"Xiao Fang, book me a ticket to Shanghai OK, just for New Year's Eve."
,.
Xiaoxiao didn¡¯t want to believe it, and until she was discharged from the hospital, Mo Yiyang was nowhere to be seen.
Early in the morning, Aunt Chen helped her sort out her clothes and completed the discharge procedures.
"Where's the director? Why didn't he come?" After enduring it for a long time, Xiaoxiao finally asked the driver who came to pick her up.
The driver, Lao Zhu, has been driving in the government for most of his life. Director Mo told him a few days ago that he was going to drive out today. For this, he also received a lot of bonuses. He said: "Director Mo is going to another place." Yes, I sent him to the airport at five o'clock this morning, and he should be on the plane now."
"What, he is on a business trip today."
"It doesn't seem to be the case. I heard he said he was going to Shanghai to celebrate the New Year. Miss Gu, that's all. Nothing else."
Xiaoxiao couldn¡¯t hide the look of disappointment on her face, and she said sadly: ¡°Well, that¡¯s all.¡±
"Farewell to the doctors and nurses, and farewell to Aunt Chen, she got on the bus back to her hometown.
Today is New Year¡¯s Eve. Although there are a lot of vehicles on the road, it is significantly less than in the past.
Xiaoxiao lowered her head and fiddled with her phone. She pressed Mo Yiyang's numbers one by one and deleted them one by one. She never knew that missing someone was such a torture, even more difficult than rehabilitation.
When she was in college, she had a crush on a senior from another department. She had never been the one to take the initiative. Girls were supposed to be reserved. Later, until the senior graduated and left school, she was not brave enough to do so. take the first step.
Now, it¡¯s the same.
She has always been a weak person when it comes to relationships, especially in front of strong people.
Director Mo's conditions were so good that she couldn't reach them, and the facts proved that he only said those words of love to her because of the child. When the child was gone, his love was gone, and he could not even be seen anymore. .
Gu Xiaoxiao, what you have to do now is to stop thinking about it, go back to your hometown happily to celebrate the New Year, and then work hard.
When Lao Zhu saw Xiao Xiaoan sitting quietly in the back, bored, he asked, "Miss Gu, don't blame me for talking too much. I just asked out of curiosity. I heard everyone in the unit said that you and Mo Si Isn¡¯t it true that it¡¯s long in the relationship?¡±
"Ah, it's nothing, how could they spread it like this?"
"Isn't that true? I'm also confused. You said you're not dating. A few days ago, the director was always running to the hospital, saying you were dating. He didn't even come when you were discharged."
"Haha, we have no relationship. Everyone is spreading rumors. The director is just more concerned about the injured employees who are hospitalized."
"I agree with this. Director Mo is good to our employees."
Xiaoxiao didn't want to continue talking about him, so she changed the subject, "Master Zhu, did the annual meeting of the unit go well?"
"It went smoothly. We had dinner and won prizes. Everyone was very happy. I heard that you planned this annual meeting."
"Yeah, it's a pity that I couldn't participate."
"Well, there's nothing you can do about your foot injury. Just heal your injury first. Once you heal your injury, everything will be easy."
"Yes, that's what you said."
The car drove out of the Fifth Ring Road and was getting closer to Baoding. The road was inevitably bumpy, so Xiaoxiao passed the time talking to Master Zhu.
At noon, Xiaoxiao finally arrived home and saw her parents and grandparents. Xiaoxiao was so happy that her eyes were sore.
I had briefly told my parents about the ruptured Achilles tendon on the phone. As soon as Wang Lihua saw her daughter, she hugged her and couldn't help crying, "My daughter, why are you so thin?"
When her mother cried, she couldn't help it anymore. Tears flowed down her face, "It would be good to be thinner. Nowadays, the streets are full of skinny girls. This is called skinny beauty."
Gu Zhongwei took Master Zhu and thanked him repeatedly. He even sent his daughter all the way back to his hometown in Baoding during the Chinese New Year.
Master Zhu stayed here for a lunch, and then went back in a hurry. He also had to rush home to celebrate the New Year with his family.
This place is far less prosperous than the imperial capital, but it is quieter and better than the air.
The house at home is an ordinary two-story building. Although it is not as sophisticated as in the city, it is large and spacious.
Wang Lihua has already tidied up her room,It was clean and warm. When she saw her healthy parents and her grandparents who were in good health, she felt infinite emotions in her heart. In fact, there are many things in this world that are more practical and important than love.
Speaking of the fire, Gu Zhongwei and Wang Lihua expressed regret. When they left home, they only brought some changes of clothes with them. Many of their belongings were at home, but they were all reduced to ashes in the fire.
"Fortunately, we are still reunited as a family. The little Zhang family is in dire straits, with an old mother and a young son. Alas, I don't know how they are doing now."
"Dad, Uncle Zhang accompanied Aunt Zhang back to her parents' home. I hope they can come out soon The government has temporary housing for everyone. That building is no longer habitable. There is no news yet on whether it will be rebuilt on the same site or a new one."
"Sigh, we don't know if we can go back."
Zhang Lihua came over with a bowl of peeled fresh longans, "Xiaoxiao, eat and replenish your body I think it's pretty good here. The air is good, the transportation is good, and the pressure is not that great. Your unit's performance is not good anyway." , we might as well move back, we can find jobs nearby."
Gu Zhongwei: "You put it lightly. We are old, but our daughter is still young. It doesn't matter if young people stay at home with the old people. Young people should go out and see the world. What's more, Xiaoxiao can't lose her job. Wait. After the New Year, we have to go back.¡±
Zhang Lihua thought for a while, nodded and said, "Yes, you are right, Xiaoxiao cannot ignore Director Mo."
