messed up

Chapter 15

Seeing that Mr. Lin's son and daughter-in-law had returned, Xu Baiyu glanced at Lin Qizhi who was on the hospital bed, and said to Mr. Lin's son, "The patient is all normal and is recovering well."

"Okay, thank you doctor." The man hurriedly agreed, still wanting to give something to Xu Baiyu: "I'm really sorry that day, we..."

"I'm really fine." Seeing this, Xu Baiyu hurried to the door, and even interrupted the man's words: "I'll go to work first, you take good care of the old man."

During this time, Xu Baiyu would send some diary-like news to Yu Jing after get off work every day, such as a new dish in the hospital cafeteria today, which he thought was delicious; or when a patient was not rescued, he watched helplessly. , feel guilty and uncomfortable but dare not show it in front of the patient's family.These things that are almost the same as the running account did not arouse Yu Jing's disgust, but the other party replied to him one by one very patiently, which made Xu Baiyu flattered for a while.

After finally taking a rest, Xu Baiyu took a late sleep as a matter of course.When he just woke up, he instinctively grabbed his cell phone and wanted to send a message to Yu Jing. He had just typed a few words before pressing the send button, so he got on the phone by coincidence.

The caller was Xu Baiyu's grandma. He hurriedly pressed the answer button, trying not to sound like he had just woken up: "Grandma, why did you remember to call me?"

"Baiyu, when are you free? Come to grandma for a meal?" The old lady was very happy to hear her grandson's voice: "Since you started work, grandma hasn't seen you yet."

"Grandma, this is the third time your old man has called me this month. If I don't go there, am I still human?" Xu Baiyu crawled out of the bed, put the phone between his ears and shoulders, and folded the quilt He said, "I'm taking a day off today, and I'll be there later."

"Really?" The surprise came so suddenly that the old lady was overjoyed: "Okay grandson, wait for grandma to make you your favorite braised chicken and rice." After finishing speaking, she hung up the phone and prepared to cook happily They went, and didn't give Xu Baiyu a chance to speak.

The old lady has always been like this, Xu Baiyu is also used to it.He reopened WeChat, thought for a moment, and sent Yu Jing: Does Mr. Yu like braised chicken and rice?Then he washed his face, put on his down jacket and went outside.

Grandma Xu Baiyu's house was not too close to the provincial hospital, and he took a bus for more than half an hour to get there.It is true that he has not been back for several months. Walking in the neighborhood where he lived when he was a child, he felt both familiar and strange, and his heart was full of inexplicable and complicated feelings.

Xu Baiyu walked to the building where grandma's house was with ease.He walked up the stairs, raised his hand and knocked on the door, fearing that the old man would not know who it was, he purposely called out: "Grandma, it's me, Bai Yu."

"Bai Yu is here." A middle-aged woman in an apron opened the door.Seeing Xu Baiyu, the woman was stunned for a moment: "Oh, look at my eldest nephew. Is it so hard to go to work? The old lady feels distressed."

"Sister-in-law, you're here too." Xu Baiyu greeted, and smiled helplessly: "Actually, I haven't lost much weight."

"Baiyu is here?" The old lady was also wearing an apron and was busy in the kitchen. Seeing Xu Baiyu entered the living room, she hurriedly turned around and looked carefully: "Your sister-in-law is right, she has indeed lost weight. We are much fatter at noon today." Eat something."

"Okay." In order to make the old lady happy, Xu Baiyu quickly agreed.

It was the end of November in the Gregorian calendar at this time, and the winter in Yaocheng had unknowingly revealed its fangs and claws. Fortunately, there was heating indoors, so the lives of ordinary people were still as comfortable and comfortable as before.

Xu Baiyu took off his down jacket and hung it on the hanger, and then had to put on a thin coat under the nagging of his sister-in-law.Just as he sat on the sofa after washing his hands, he picked up the remote control to change the channel, but his sister-in-law suddenly came over with a bright smile on her face.

Xu Baiyu suddenly had an ominous premonition, and sure enough, his sister-in-law said in the next second: "Our Baiyu boss is not young, and the young man looks so energetic, do you have someone to talk to?"

The old man left early, and the children and grandchildren became the top priority in the old lady's life, and Xu Baiyu's marriage was always on her mind.Usually I don't see Xu Baiyu, and the old lady can only talk to her only daughter. At this time, the sister-in-law is more like the mouthpiece and spokesperson of the old man.

His sister-in-law was afraid that Xu Baiyu would be embarrassed, so she deliberately lowered her voice: "Is there any girl you like?"

Xu Baiyu quickly shook his head: "Not yet."

Unexpectedly, this answer was exactly what his sister-in-law wanted, and the sister-in-law immediately smiled and asked: "That's right, I saw a suitable one recently, how about introducing it to you?"

"No, really no need." Xu Baiyu didn't expect that a mountain was higher than a mountain, and the hand that was about to take a glass of water stopped in place.He looked at each other with sincerity on his face: "Sister-in-law, I'm still young, and I want to focus on my career."

His sister-in-law felt a little disappointed: "Baiyu, you grew up in this house, and the old lady cared more about you than any other grandchildren. Let me tell you the truth, this time the girl is not only good for me, The old lady likes it too." She sighed, and asked tentatively, "You really don't think about it? It's okay to meet first."

"Really." Xu Baiyu thought quickly, and suddenly thought of a good way to get out: "Hey, Huanhuan is going to take the college entrance examination in half a year. How is it going?"

Facts have proved that Xu Baiyu's strategy is very good. When mentioning his daughter Yao Huan, the sister-in-law's attention is shifted instantly: "Don't talk about your sister, I will get angry when you mention her. This child, until now, is always against me. " She looked at Xu Baiyu: "Baiyu, if your sister can be half as sensible as you were back then, I will be satisfied. I don't know how she will score in the final exam."

"Don't worry, aunt, it's definitely fine." Xu Baiyu persuaded, "I was not sensible at all back then, and Huanhuan is already very good." In order to avoid the topic going back to the blind date, Xu Baiyu Bai Yu quickly poured his sister-in-law a glass of water, and began to expose her shortcomings: "Guy, speaking of the college entrance examination, do you remember when I applied for volunteers?"

"I remember." The sister-in-law replied: "You have been doing well in your studies when you were young, and you got a score of [-] in the final college entrance examination." She became interested, and before Xu Baiyu could reply, she continued: "I remember when you Parents don't approve of you applying to medical school."

Xu Baiyu smiled, and nodded lightly: "I still remember the appearance of those two people back then. It's also quite funny. As far back as I can remember, they hit each other whenever they met. That was the first time they had a unified opinion." They all want me to report to the economic management.” The past has been uncovered, and Xu Baiyu searched carefully in the depths of his memory: “Lao Xu’s factory is getting bigger and bigger, and he said that he wants me to help after graduation. He manages the business. As for Lao Li," he couldn't help laughing: "At that time, he called me specially and said that it was my father's factory, and he must not take advantage of others. With this sentence, Lao Li Xu was so angry that he walked back and forth in this living room no less than ten times."

Xu Baiyu's joking words, coupled with the unfamiliar address, suddenly made his sister-in-law feel a little uncomfortable.The sister-in-law patted Xu Baiyu on the back, just about to say a few words, but heard the old lady shout from the kitchen: "Yuan, come and cook the porridge for me."

Xu Yuan responded and hurried over. The coke spoiled Xu Baiyu: he was finally able to replace the elderly singing and dancing performances on TV.

Seeing that the two elders didn't care about him, Xu Baiyu took out his phone and flicked casually, and found that Yu Jing had replied to his message, only a few short words: "It's okay, I can do whatever."

Xu Baiyu stared at the screen, and suddenly remembered Yu Jing's appalling appetite.He sighed in a low voice. He wanted to tell Yu Jing that his grandma's cooking was delicious, but he felt that he was not close enough to invite her to his house as a guest. In the end, he only replied: "Next time together go eat.

"By the way, Bai Yu." After Xu Yuan finished her work, she went back to the living room and sat down again: "I'll show your sister the high school notes in your room."

"Ah?" This was a bit unexpected for Xu Baiyu, and he asked dumbfoundedly: "It was nearly ten years ago. I planned to throw it away, but grandma insisted on keeping it. Huanhuan still has it." Does it work?"

"Why not? At least the attitude is worth learning." Xu Yuan smiled: "You write so neatly in your notes, let your sister learn more from you."

"No way." Facing Xu Yuan's compliment, Xu Baiyu didn't take it seriously: "My notes are mostly nonsense, just trying to tie myself with the tip of the pen so that I don't lose my mind. It's useless."

The old lady called out, "Bai Yu, come and eat."

"Hey." Xu Baiyu hurriedly responded, got up and went to the restaurant.

The old lady was always afraid that her grandson would be hungry, so she kept adding vegetables to Xu Baiyu's bowl almost all the time.Xu Baiyu usually eats a lot, but now facing this "excessive" care, he feels his stomach has been silently protesting.In the end, he really couldn't eat any more, and repeatedly shied away like an old lady doing Tai Chi, and finally dispelled the old man's idea of ​​wanting him to eat more.

Xu Baiyu took out a napkin and just wiped his mouth clean when the old lady said: "Did your sister-in-law tell you just now? I want to introduce a girl to you."

Xu Baiyu was taken aback, and only then did he recall: It turned out that the old lady was playing with him this time, "before the ceremony".

"I've said it." Xu Baiyu hurriedly got up and left the dining table, threw the napkin into the trash can, and repeated what he said to Xu Yuan: "I'm still young, and my career is the most important thing."

The old lady sighed and asked a very profound question: "Is family more important than career?"

Xu Baiyu just felt a chill behind his back, picked up the phone and dialed Yu Jing's number quickly without thinking, and pretended to run the train after the other party connected: "Ah, okay, I'll go back right away." After that, he hurried Putting on the down jacket, he smiled at the old lady: "Grandma, sister, I'm really sorry, I have something to do at work, I'll be with you two next time." After saying that, he rushed out the door.

Xu Baiyu didn't hang up the phone, and only smiled and explained to Yu Jing when he came out of the building: "I'm sorry, Mr. Yu, just now my grandma urged the marriage, I just found an excuse to slip out."

The person on the other end of the phone also smiled: "Xiao Xu, you are quite interesting."
