Chapter 7 (1/2)
”What's the matter?” Lin Mubei found that she didn't look well.
”Miss Lin, can you do me a favor?”
”What's up?”
”Can you take me to the hospital?”
When ye Sitong finished, he planned to explain something more. Lin Mubei had promised: ”let's go.”
Lin Mubei took her by the wrist and walked out. When he got into the car, ye Sitong reported his address. Soon, he arrived at the door of the hospital.
Lin Mubei got off and opened the door for her. Ye Sitong got off and smiled gratefully at her: ”Teacher Lin, thank you for sending me here. I went in first.”
Ye Sitong smiled reluctantly. He couldn't hide his worry. Lin Mubei frowned: ”I'll go in with you.”
”No, I can go in by myself. Miss Lin, you're tired all day. Go back and have a rest early.”
Lin Mubei looked at her condition and didn't trust her, but he also knew that it didn't make sense. He just did it. He grabbed Ye Sitong's wrist and went to the hospital.
”What are you doing?!” Ye Sitong didn't expect him to do it directly. His strength was not as strong as him, so he had to trot behind him.
”Where is it?”
”What?”
”Which way to go?” Lin Mubei repeated. He never liked to repeat what he said, but he kindly asked again when he saw Ye Sitong in a trance.
Ye Sitong remembered that he had forgotten to ask his mother's ward number, so he had to shake his head and find a nurse to ask about the ward.
The door of the ward was not closed. At a glance, ye Sitong saw his mother sitting in front of the hospital bed. The mother sat there as if the whole person was not angry. She was much older and didn't notice when someone came. Ye Sitong suddenly shed tears and shouted, ”Mom!”
When ye mother heard the sound, she turned around and saw that it was Ye Sitong. The tears that she had managed to stop began to flow out again.
\\\”Pupil. \ \”
Lin Mubei loosened Ye Sixi Tong's wrist. Without restraint, ye Sixi Tong ran over in three or two steps and hugged her mother in his arms. His voice choked: ”Mom, Dad, how's he...?”
”Your father, he...” Ye mother only said three words and couldn't go on. Ye Sixi saw her father wearing an oxygen mask, lying on the hospital bed with his eyes closed, gently patting her mother on the back.
”Dad, he'll be fine. Mom, don't worry. I'm here.”
The woman, clearly worried to death, pretended to be strong to comfort others. Lin Mubei wanted to leave, but looking at this scene, he always felt uneasy. He had to stand outside the door with his upper body slightly skewed and leaning against the wall. Fortunately, ye Mu responded in time, saw him, wiped the residual tears in the corners of his eyes with the back of his hand, and smiled reluctantly: ”Tong Tong Tong, who is this?”
”Ah?” Yesi Tong followed his mother's line of sight and saw Lin Mubei still standing at the door. He was embarrassed and hesitated. He didn't know how to introduce him, but Lin Mubei didn't speak. Yemu waited for her to speak again. Yesi Tong gritted his teeth and said, ”this is our old French teacher, Lin Mubei Lin, who sent me to the hospital.”
Ye's mother heard that she was her daughter's teacher. She quickly said, ”Hello, Miss Lin. I'll make you laugh. You sit, you sit.”
”Nothing, aunt.” Lin Mubei replied politely.
Ye's mother asked Ye Sitong about his homework at school. Lin Mubei took a look at Ye Sitong, who kept winking at him nearby, and the answer was tepid.
Ye's mother has to ask again. Ye Sitong is embarrassed by his mother's enthusiasm for Lin Mubei: ”Mom, Mr. Lin is our French teacher, not a life teacher. How can he answer so many questions.”
When ye Sitong interrupted, ye mother found that she was too enthusiastic, so she had to dry a smile. Lin Mubei didn't care and leaned up: ”I'll go to the bathroom.”
As soon as Lin Mubei left, ye Mu fell into a state called sadness. She took Ye Sitong's hand and gently covered it. She didn't say a word for a long time. Ye Sitong was worried and couldn't help asking, ”Mom, what's the matter with you?”
Ye Mu sighed and shook her head: ”Tong Tong, what can you do?”
