Back to Twelve

Chapter 6 - .By car



6. By car

There were more than forty minutes left before the bus door opened. The waiting room was full of people. Meng Qingqing had to find a quiet corner to stand and wait. Despite this, she still attracted some people’s attention. She looked at herself. Although she was already twenty-five years old in her heart, her body was only twelve years old. Because she had been helping grandma to work on the ground for a long time, she was very darkened by the sun and she was shorter than her peers. She was black and thin. To make things easier, she had her grandma cut a short hair, wore a pair of black trousers, an old shirt with a blue background and white florals, and she carried a big blue cloth bag on her back. This kind of dress is considered in the village. Okay, but here, it’s very earthy, and it looks like a girl from the village. Being a person again, of course, will arouse the curiosity of others.

Meng Qingqing stood there alone, thinking about her own thoughts. It didn’t matter what she was in the eyes of others. She didn’t care about it. What she cared about was seeing her father as soon as possible.

After finally waiting for the car to come, Meng Qingqing got in the car, and the driver saw her a little girl and asked in a series, “You go to the provincial capital alone without a family member to accompany you? It’s not bright, you’re not afraid of what you do in the provincial capital alone, do your family know?”

The people in the car also looked over curiously.

Meng Qingqing knew that the driver was also kind. Faced with a series of questions from him, she lied: “My dad will pick me up at the station.” If her dad is healthy, of course this will be the case, but Meng Qingqing sighed. .

Hearing what Meng Qingqing said, it was hard for others to ask.

Sitting in the seat, Meng Qingqing thought, her age and stature are in the eyes of others as a child, and many of her decisions in the future may not be adopted by others, such as persuading father not to trust her uncle too much. How can I make my dad recognize their uncle’s faces? My dad is very sick now and cannot be irritated. It is a troublesome problem to let my dad see the uncle’s face and not allow him to be too emotionally affected.

Meng Qingqing fell asleep after thinking about it. When she woke up, it was dark. It was ten o’clock in the evening. Most of the people in the car were sleeping. Meng Qingqing was very hungry. She opened the bag and ate with mustard pickles. After taking two steamed buns, he continued to sleep, and when he woke up again, the car had arrived at the passenger terminal in the provincial capital.

When the car pulled into the station, it was really only 4:30 in the morning. Although Meng Qing had lived a lifetime longer, he had never arrived at the station at this time.

She originally planned to stay in the waiting room of the station until dawn before leaving, but she didn’t expect that there would be a taxi at this time. Meng Qingqing changed her mind temporarily. It was like freezing in a deserted waiting room for two hours, so it was better to take a taxi. Find dad in the hospital. You can also see Dad earlier.

Meng Qingqing watched for a long time. Those taxi drivers were all sturdy men. Also, in the middle of the night, which woman was so courageous and dared to come out to attract customers.

While hesitating, a middle-aged man with a good face asked: “Little girl, do you want to take a car?”

Meng Qingqing nodded, “I want to go to the People’s Hospital.”

“It costs ten yuan to go to the People’s Hospital, let’s go”

Meng Qingqing thought, there won’t be bad guys everywhere, taxis are regular cars. So she got in the car.

Meng Qingqing took a taxi to the People’s Hospital.

She has lived in this city for more than ten years. She has never been to this hospital for minor illnesses and pains before, but after working, the employees of this People’s Hospital have a physical examination every year, so she is not unfamiliar with this hospital. She is guided by the information desk. Soon I found the nephrology department of the inpatient department.

At this time, the hospital was quiet. The patients, doctors and nurses were sleeping, and there was no one on the aisle, only Meng Qingqing was walking alone. Her footsteps seemed particularly loud in the empty aisle.

The sound of Meng Qingqing’s footsteps awakened the nurse on duty lying lying there sleeping. She raised her head and gave Meng Qingqing a dissatisfied look, and wanted to lie down and continue sleeping.

“Hello, I want to ask Meng Zijun in that ward”

The little nurse raised her head again and looked at a little girl in Meng Qingqing, who was rustic in appearance and dress, but spoke standard and fluent Mandarin. The little nurse couldn’t help being surprised.

When Meng Qingqing went to school in the provincial capital in her previous life, because she spoke a strong dialect, her classmates laughed at it for a long time. Later, she practiced secretly until she entered high school. To speak Mandarin. But he speaks very standard and fluently.

“Sister, my father’s name is Meng Zijun. He is hospitalized in the nephrology department, but I don’t know which ward he is. Please ask my sister to check it for me.” Meng Qingqing is polite and articulate.

The little nurse couldn’t help being curious about the child, “Why are you seeing the patient alone at this time?”

“I’m from my hometown, and I just get off now.”

“How many kilometers is it from my hometown”

“Thousands of kilometers, I took fifteen or six hours to get there.”

The little nurse opened her eyes wide, “You are the only one to come to your mother that way.”

Meng Qingqing’s eyes were red, and she whispered: “My mother died when I was young. I have only two relatives, my father and grandma, but my father is sick again. I have to come to see my father anyway.”

When the little nurse heard it, her nose was sore, and her sympathy grew spontaneously. She said softly, “Little sister, it’s not easy for you. Okay, let me find it for you.”

The little nurse took out a thick roster, rummaged through her slender white fingers, “Meng Zijun”.

“Your father’s name is Meng Zijun, right? She is in Ward 7-9, and the bed number is 9, just walk down here and you can see it.” The little nurse pointed to the aisle next to her. And added: “Do you need me to take you there?”

“Thank you sister, I should find it.” Meng Qingqing thanked the little nurse and walked over to look for it.

Sure enough, after a short while, I found Ward 7-9.

Meng Qingqing gently pushed the door in. There were three patients sleeping inside. Two patients were accompanied by someone beside them. The patient and the attendant fell asleep beside the bed. Only the No. 9 bed near the window was a lonely one. People are lying there.

The light in the ward was very dim, with only one wall lamp emitting a faint light. But Meng Qingqing could still see at a glance that he was familiar with Dad lying on bed 9.

Meng Qingqing walked gently to the side of his father’s bed and looked at his sleeping father, tears couldn’t help streaming.

In the previous life, after her father and grandma passed away one after another, she became an orphan. She lived alone in this world. Although her uncle’s family took her in, she was always alone in her heart. She didn’t understand until she was dying in her previous life that the uncle’s house was only to cover up an ugly fact. They didn’t even count as alms to her. Now she is born again and can see her loving father again, but he has already He is extremely ill, and according to the fate of his previous life, he only has more than one month in this world. Although she was born again, she was just an ordinary girl and could not help her father. I can only watch my father suffering from illness in such a desperate way.
