Chapter 5 Visiting the sick
() Found the way home!
Yanjing City was a little deserted on weekend mornings, and there were significantly fewer vehicles passing through the streets.
Chen Fang parked the vehicle to the side of the road, found a bank to reopen an account and applied for a bank card. He then bought a new Apple 4S mobile phone in the Huaxia Mobile Business Hall next to him, and complained in his heart: This broken mobile phone is actually more expensive in China than in Europe and the United States. After the rise of domestic mobile phones in the future, he will definitely not use Apple.
After Chen Fang bought his mobile phone, he took his ID card and applied for a mobile phone number in the business hall. He called Chen Hui and told her that this was his new mobile phone number.
At around 10 o'clock in the morning, Chen Fang drove to the Cancer Hospital of Huaxia Medical College near Panjiayuan. He parked the car in the parking lot of the hospital and took out the nutritional supplements prepared by Chen Hui from the trunk. He went to the 16th floor special care unit of the inpatient department according to the address given by Chen Hui. This was the top domestic cancer specialty hospital he entrusted Chen Hui to help contact after receiving the information.
This is a single ward. Grandma Yang is lying in the middle of the ward. There is a escort bed near the innermost. A middle-aged man is sleeping on it, making a snoring sound. This should be Grandma Yang's son Chen Jiansheng. In front of Grandma Yang's bed, a girl in her twenties is sitting next to the bed and whispering to the door.
Hearing the movement at the door, the girl turned around and saw Chen Fang carrying a bunch of nutritional products. She asked in surprise: "Who are you looking for?"
At this time, Grandma Yang also saw Chen Fang. Although her temperament has changed for a few years, her facial features can still be recognized. She raised her right hand tremblingly, pointed at Chen Fang and said, "Xiao...ye..., is it you?"
Chen Fang put the things in his hand on the table beside the wall, stretched out his hands and grabbed the old lady's right hand, and said softly: "It's me, I'm Xiaoye. I'm back and come back to see you."
The girl is Grandma Yang's granddaughter, named Chen Weiran. She was in her sophomore year at Yanjing Normal University. When Chen Fang was in his third year of high school, Chen Jiansheng brought his daughter, Chen Feifan and Chen Weiran to Beijing to play. Chen Fang arranged for them to live in his home at that time. Chen Weiran was only eight or nine years old at that time. He clearly remembered that Chen Weiran stared at the time with big watery eyes and said to him with hatred: "You snatched my grandma away, I hate you to death." This sentence at that time made him heartbroken, as if the only piece of private land in his heart was also taken away. During that summer vacation, he told Grandma Yang that he had grown up, had already gone to college, and could take care of himself, and then he firmly asked Grandma Yang to return to his hometown in Shanghai to enjoy his old age.
Chen Fang looked at the girl next to him and vaguely saw some of the outlines of the past. The bright big eyes were still so clear. The girl gently woke Chen Jiansheng who was asleep on the escort bed. Perhaps because of the continuous staying up late and his concern for the old lady's condition, he was a little ignorant, his hair was a little messy, and his eyes were red. After seeing Chen Fang, he greeted him slightly and took a towel to the bathroom to wash.
Grandma Yang’s hometown used to be in the suburbs of Shanghai. The great development in Shanghai brought great opportunities to farmers in the suburbs. In 2002, Grandma Yang’s family was demolished, and her family was divided into five or six houses at once. Chen Jiansheng himself was a farmer and had no business acumen. After losing land, he could support his family by collecting rent and not worry about food and drink. His daughter was admitted to Yanjing University, and his son Chen Feifan was 24 years old. After graduating from high school, he went to the army to train for several years. Now Shanghai Honhai Group is a driver for Chen Fang’s cousin Chen Yao.
This time, Grandma Yang suddenly had abdominal pain. After going to the hospital for examination, she found that pancreatic cancer was advanced and had spread to the abdomen. Pancreatic cancer is a malignant gastrointestinal tumor with a high degree of malignancy and difficulty in diagnosis and treatment. Once it spreads, there is basically no possibility of cure.
He held the old lady's hand tightly, and in my memory, he had become weak and weak when he was able to hold his hand to and from school. His face, which was once rich and rich, also became very thin.
Chen Fang called Chen Jiansheng and Chen Weiran outside the door and asked the old lady in detail about her condition. "My grandma used to have frequent abdominal pain, so she didn't go to the hospital, so she just found some anti-inflammatory medicine at home and took it. If my brother hadn't forced her to go to the hospital for examination this time, she would probably not have known that it was already in the late stage." Chen Weiran choked up.
Chen Jiansheng said: "The doctor said that my mother has not much time left. He suggested that we go back to our hometown. In a familiar environment, I guess my mother can survive this Mid-Autumn Festival. We are also preparing to be discharged from the hospital in the next few days. She has no regrets if she can see you for the last time." Chen Fang consulted the chief physician, and the doctor also gave such an answer.
Chen Fang returned to the ward again, knelt in front of the hospital bed, and gently grabbed Grandma Yang's hand. The old lady was already a little confused and was still muttering: "Xiao Ye... don't cry, Grandma is here, Grandma is with you, Grandma will not leave."
The tears I had to endure could no longer be suppressed, and they slashed across my face along the corners of my eyes and dripped onto the white sheets of the hospital bed.
After discussing with her daughter, Chen Jiansheng planned to take the old lady back to Shanghai while the old lady was still able to hold on these two days. Chen Fang helped to check out the bill and complete the discharge procedures. He also opened two rooms in the hotel next to the hospital, asking Chen Weiran to take her father to have a good rest in the hotel and come to accompany the old lady tonight.
In the afternoon, Chen Hui brought two little girls to come over, stayed with Chen Fang for a while, said a few words to the Chen family's father and daughter and left. At around 6 o'clock in the evening, the driver, Master Liu, arranged for him to help deliver a packed meal and serve as supper for Chen Fang.
The old lady woke up several times at night, and she held Chen Han's hand and kept letting go, and repeatedly said, "Good boy, don't cry! Grandma is satisfied that she can meet you before leaving."
The next morning, Chen Fang drove the old lady and Chen Jiansheng to Yanjing South Station. Chen Weiran would not go back tomorrow if he had to attend class. Chen Jiansheng took his grandmother back and Chen Feifan would pick them up at the Shanghai exit.
Chen Fang handed Chen Jiansheng a bank card at the entrance of the station: "Uncle Chen, the money in it is for me to support my grandma in old age and see off. The password is six sixes. When the grandma left, call me to notify me and I will go and send her off."
There was a million in the bank card, which was specially handled by Chen Fang yesterday. After ruling for a few times, Chen Jiansheng put it in his close pocket. Chen Fang squatted down and hugged the old lady in the wheelchair tightly. He couldn't bear to let go for a long time. During the radio urging by the ticket inspector, Chen Fang watched Chen Jiansheng push the old lady away and went further and further, and tried to grab it, but when he reached out, he still had empty hands.
Chen Fang drove Chen Weiran to the south gate of Yanjing Normal University near Mingguang Bridge.
"Brother Jin Ye, thank you." Li Weiran said to Chen Fang after getting off the car.
"I changed my name, now I'm Chen Fang. You can call me Brother Chen in the future. This is my phone number. Remember to call me if you have anything in the future."
Chen Fang looked at Li Weiran who was about to walk to the school and suddenly called her: "Weiran, do you still hate me now?"
Chen Weiran said in surprise: "Brother Chen, I don't hate you, why do I hate you?"
