Chapter 231 No Common Sense
After a round of inspections, fortunately, the little guy wasn't too hot, except for two blisters on his calf, the rest of the place was just a little hot red.

Fortunately, the water in the hot water bottle was overnight, but the baby's skin was delicate, and something happened.

The doctor sterilized the wound briefly, and prescribed a prescription for medicine. Du Ruo took the child to line up for the medicine, and Aunt Ding took Du Liangxing downstairs to pay the bill.

It was an elderly nurse who applied the medicine.

Perhaps because the nurse did not move lightly or heavily, the little guy cried very hard, and his hoarse voice became sharp, almost hoarse.

Du Ruo's eyes were red: "Trouble, can you be gentle?"

"Now I know that my heart hurts? Why did you go there? You are the third person to be scalded by a hot water bottle today. You are all young, and it is not good to take care of your baby! You said that such a small child can use A hot water bottle? No common sense!"

The nurse reprimanded me while administering the medicine.

Du Ruo was rendered speechless by the training, but seeing the scalding burns on the little guy's calf, she lost her mind.

After the training, the nurse also felt that she had spoken too seriously, so she looked up at Du Ruo.

Because of running all the way, Du Ruo got to the hospital with disheveled hair, pale face, sweaty forehead, and red eye circles like rabbits.

"You brought the child here alone? I think the child is not yet full-term. Why do people in your month come out to take the child to see a doctor? Where is the child's father?"

The nurse may have been kind, but Du Ruo was extremely embarrassed, and he hesitated and said: "His father is too busy, I haven't had time to inform him."

"Busy? I can't let the puerpera in the confinement come out to see the light! It's said that young people are irresponsible now, girl, children are not so easy to raise..."

Despite all the difficulties, Du Ruo thought that she was fully prepared, but this small setback almost caused her to collapse.

Seeing that she seemed to be crying again, the old nurse gradually became sympathetic: "Hey... nothing happened this time, so be careful in the future. Keep the baby away from the water when you go back, and don't touch the wound. The blisters may still get bigger. , you come to change the medicine every other day."

Du Ruo thanked again and again.

Seeing her bewildered look, the nurse shook her head and reminded: "You are the first child, I guess you have no experience. Such a small child cannot take medicine, but the wound should be prevented from inflammation and infection. Are you breastfeeding? If you are breastfeeding, this Don't eat fish, shrimp and seafood for a while, and if the child is frightened, wake up at night and be careful not to let him have a fever..."

When he came out of the burn department, Du Ruo's back was covered with cold sweat.

Running and panicking all the way against time, she was already exhausted. Fortunately, the baby stopped crying and was held by Aunt Ding.

Du Liangxing helped Du Ruo go outside.

Mo Youting ran in from outside the hospital, hurriedly asking, "What's the matter? Is it important?"

Du Ruomu was stunned, his consciousness still stopped in shock.

Mo Youting saw that her face was frighteningly pale, and immediately held her hand tightly: "Du Ruo, don't scare me, what's the matter? You didn't make it clear on the phone..."

"The child was scalded by the hot water bottle. Luckily, nothing serious happened. There was a blister, which has already been bandaged." Seeing that she was silent, Du Liangxing answered for her.

Mo Youting breathed a sigh of relief.

He also rushed over immediately after receiving a call from Aunt Ding. He was still in a meeting, and he didn't have time to put on his coat, and the company's station badge was still hanging around his neck.

"Okay, okay, it's okay, Du Ruo...it's okay." Mo Youting pinched Du Ruo's face lightly, trying to wake her up from being stunned, "I'm here, it's okay, just be careful in the future Come on, go back, I'll see you off."

Du Ruo's eyes finally moved, and he looked up at Mo Youting, but his footsteps did not move.

Du Liangxing sighed softly, and said, "She was frightened, let her take it easy, go back and talk about it first."

"Well, go back. Uncle, I'll take you back first." Mo Youting nodded to Du Liangxing, then turned around and wrapped the scarf on Du Ruo's shoulders, completely covering her pale face, and finally He walked out with his arm around her shoulders.

Regardless of the presence of other people, Mo Youting just kept hugging Du Ruo all the way.

The car was very quiet, the little guy didn't sleep well, and cried softly from time to time. It could be heard that he was crying a lot just now, so the little guy's crying was already very hoarse.

For fear of shocking the baby, no one spoke again.

Except Aunt Ding.

Aunt Ding kept blaming herself and feeling uneasy, and she was also terrified.

If the employer's baby has an accident because of the confinement wife's negligence, the confinement wife must bear the responsibility.

In the afternoon, Mo Youting did not return to the company, and sat with Du Ruo in the living room.

Auntie Ding slept with the baby in the bedroom, and Du Liangxing made soup for Du Ruo in the kitchen. The black fish he brought was not edible for the time being, so he went to a nearby vegetable market to buy a chicken.

Because of the scalding of the baby, Du Ruo's mood became very gloomy, and he didn't speak much after returning.

After Mo Youting coaxed her for a long time, she only ate half a bowl of chicken soup and said a few words vaguely.

"The nurse who helped prescribe the medicine said that I am not a qualified mother. I always thought that I was fully prepared. Before, my younger brother was always sent to the hospital in the middle of the night. I also dealt with many emergencies, so I thought I could handle it well." Come here, but when I hugged and ran on the road today, I realized that I was wrong..."

Du Ruo was holding the enamel bowl, and the white mist in the bowl rose, making Du Ruo's pale face even whiter and the circles of his eyes redder.

Mo Youting sat next to her and took the soup bowl from her hand.

"I'm thinking about it again. It's inevitable that you will be in a hurry when you are a new mother. Well, it's fine as long as the matter is over. Don't make it difficult for yourself." Mo Youting smiled and said half-jokingly: "It's easy for pregnant women. Suffering from postpartum depression, be careful, hum..."

Du Ruo really laughed out loud.

She didn't have that much free time to think about it.

After giving birth, her state of mind was surprisingly peaceful. Except for the time when Qiao Anming was in the hospital, she was very gentle during the rest of the time.

It's just that today's incident was like a storm, which broke the peace in Du Ruo's heart.

"I always overestimate myself. In fact, I can't handle it at all. Things are often not as easy as I think. It was the same with Qiao Anming before. I thought I just loved him and just wanted to be with him. I don't want to hurt anyone. , I don’t want to cause him to divorce, I don’t want my mother to die, I just want to be happy with him for a short period of time, one day he gets tired of it, or our relationship fades, we can separate immediately. But I was wrong, things have developed into what they are today, all is my problem……"

"..."

Mo Youting didn't know what to say for a while.

As soon as she mentioned Qiao Anming, he had nothing to refute.

Du Ruo's temperament is like this, she will either hide some things and keep her mouth shut, and once she breaks through that opening, there is no room for others to intervene.

He just listened, anyway, it wasn't the first time he was her listener.

"Mo Youting, there is really nothing cheap in this world. You have to pay for everything, and you have to bear the consequences. Xiao Ran came to see me a few days ago, and she said that I was actually very scared. She was right. I'm really afraid of death. It's hard to bear alone with a child. It's not so easy to get through it every day. I'm also very self-willed and don't think about the consequences. My dad has repeatedly emphasized that I don't need to go to the station to pick him up. , but I just want to go, I just want to go... As a result, I burned him, and when he cried, I could only hold him and cry, I couldn't do anything, I couldn't do anything at all..."

The more he talked, the more chaotic it became, the emotion seemed to have a big hole, and all kinds of things rushed out.

Du Ruo didn't know what to say at the end, and buried his head on his knees.

Mo Youting was stunned for a while, then leaned over and patted her on the shoulder: "You can really think wildly, this trend is not good, be careful not to really get depressed, I have to find a psychiatrist for you, it's so troublesome..."

But it didn't work.

Du Ruo's shoulders began to shake, and the suppressed crying was held in his throat.

Knowing that something was going to happen, Mo Youting quickly pulled her up from his knees and hugged her into his arms.

"Are you really crying? You're already a mother. How can you bring up a child without bumping into each other? When I was a child, a few servants looked at me, and they kept poking moths at my mother. Mama Hu Always screaming, saying that I must have been her enemy in my previous life..."

He was also persuading in a mess.

They all have no experience as parents, but Mo Youting's distress is real.

When going to bed at night, Du Ruo is basically awake.

She jumped up when the baby moved.

I don't know if it's because of being frightened during the day or because the burnt area hurts, but the little guy keeps crying at night, wanting to be hugged, and making fuss as soon as he puts it on the bed.

Auntie Ding and Du Ruo took turns to change shifts, hugging and coaxing, and finally survived until dawn, but the baby started to have a fever the next afternoon, and Du Ruo carried him to the hospital again.

The pediatrics department of public hospitals is always the most crowded, with queues for half a day, and only a few minutes to check in the consultation room.

"The wound is not inflamed, maybe the child has convulsions. Such a young child can't hang the water, go back and put on the anti-fever stickers, observe for a long time, if the temperature does not return, come back again!"

The doctor's non-enthusiastic tone made Du Ruo feel at a loss, so he had to take a taxi back with the child in his arms.

After returning home, I began to physically cool down the baby, put on anti-fever stickers, poured more warm water, wiped his body with a wet towel, and had to avoid the hot spots on his legs.

Physically and mentally exhausted, but Du Ruo had to hold on.

Fortunately, the baby had the mother's own antibodies, and the fever subsided after two days. Du Ruo finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Mo Youting would sneak out of the company every afternoon, take it with him to change his medicine, and chat with Du Ruo to tease the children.

A week later, the blisters on my legs basically subsided, and tender new skin gradually appeared, which looked like two ugly reddish birthmarks.

Shameless Young Master Mo lifted up his trouser legs, he also had scald marks on his legs, he was scalded by Huang Fatty and the others when he went to the hotel to save Du Ruo.

"Look, I followed the same spot that was destined to be father and son!" He pointed to the light-colored scar on his calf, and asked Du Ruo, "Do you know what it's called? It's called parent-child hot!"

"Fuck you, uncle." Du Ruo spurned and pushed Mo Youting violently.

In the past few days, the baby has been scalded and has a fever. Her nerves have been tense for 24 hours. Now that she is fine, she can smile so comfortably.

After laughing, he remembered that Mo Youting had been running around for her during this time, so he had to say thank you.

"I've been bothering you for the past few days. Every time I ask for leave, I take me to the hospital to change my medicine. I don't have time for the marriage certificate. Why don't we do it next week? Let's find time next week to do it .”

Mo Youting's face darkened, he took off his suit and opened the door to go out.

"I don't like to hear you say this the most. Let's go. The company still has something to do!"

Qiao Anming stayed in Finland for more than ten days, and then transferred to Beijing.

The itinerary to Beijing was originally scheduled before Du Ruo's mother's accident, but things happened one after another, and it was delayed for several months.

Since the second half of last year, SilkA has launched a new drug project to develop new drugs for the treatment of heart failure to replace angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors.

The new drug project cooperates with Peking University Clinical Research Institute, and is sponsored by Shengan Cheng to provide experimental funding.

According to the plan, the directors of Shengan R&D Center and clinical experts from several authoritative heart hospitals have already arrived in Beijing, waiting to join Qiao Anming.

The meeting schedule was very intensive, because Qiao Anming could only stay in Beijing for three days, and he needed to use these three days to finalize all the details of the entire R&D project, so he basically stayed at the meeting table during the day except for meals and short breaks.

The conference hall of the hotel was brightly lit and shone brightly all day long. His thoughts and nerves were highly tense and concentrated, causing Qiao Anming to feel dizzy when he returned to the room.

After squinting for a while, his mood eased a little, and he returned to his desk to work.

When the secretary knocked on his door, he had already finished handling the urgent mail for the day, and was lying on the back of the chair rubbing the space between his brows.

"Mr. Qiao, the medicine you want." The secretary put a box of anti-inflammatory medicine on the table, Qiao Anming took it, and said thank you.

Seeing his tired face, the secretary was very worried.

"Why don't you postpone tomorrow's meeting by an hour, so you can go to bed later and get up later. You've been on business trips recently, and I'm afraid your health won't be able to bear it." The secretary asked tentatively.

She came to Sheng'an after graduation, started as an administrative commissioner, and gradually became Qiao Anming's chief secretary.

The boss has been sullen lately, especially on his tired face.

But Qiao Anming shook his head: "No need, the itinerary cannot be changed."

Seeing that he insisted, the secretary didn't persuade him much, but said: "I saw that you didn't eat anything for dinner, can I order you a midnight snack? This hotel specializes in seafood, so I can order you a light seafood porridge."

Qiao Anming thought for a while, then nodded in agreement.

After the secretary left, the room became even quieter.

Qiao Anming swallowed the anti-inflammatory drug and another American ginseng capsule before standing up and walking to the window.

Outside the window is the gray sky in Beijing, without moonlight, and there seem to be dust particles scattered by neon lights in the air.

Qiao Anming is a graduate student studying at Peking University. The city of Beijing is no stranger to him, but the environmental pollution has been serious in recent years, and the smog is like a shadow.

Coupled with the dry air in Beijing in winter, Qiao Anming felt a sore throat after two days here, so he asked his secretary to buy him anti-inflammatory drugs.

The hotel's supper was delivered to the room quickly.

It really is a light seafood porridge, served with a salad and seasonal vegetables.

Qiao Anming took a sip, the porridge contained fine ginger and scallop meat, it tasted good, but he couldn't eat it all of a sudden.

It is said in the book that it is good to have loved, but not necessarily to have.

The ancients also had a poem that said, if the relationship lasts for a long time, how can it last day and night.

Qiao Anming sneered as he looked at the Yuanbei in the porcelain bowl.

He felt that the person who said this must have never really loved. If he really loved, he would not be willing to miss every minute, every second, every day.

Otherwise, what do you want to do with your memories?What to do with miss?What to do with these heartaches that can pop up at any time?
Just like he is now, when he looks at a bowl of seafood porridge, he will think of Du Ruo.

So, what do you want him to do with himself?
Qiao Anming threw away the spoon and stood up, calling Peng Yuchu.

"How's the situation over there? Is there anything wrong with the company?"

"There is nothing urgent in the company, but Ms. Du's side, Lawyer Yin has collected all the information, and the child is one month old. Lawyer Yin means that the sooner this matter starts, the easier it will be."

Qiao Anming held the phone, didn't answer the call immediately, and glanced out the window.

The hotel is within the third ring road, surrounded by high-rise buildings, and the place where the sight touches is full of flashing lights and building billboards.

Uncomfortably depressed, Qiao Anming turned around.

"Okay, you can do it, I can't leave my body in Beijing these days."

He used busyness as an excuse not to face Du Ruo directly!
Du Liangxing lived in Tongcheng for about ten days. After his leg injury was completely healed, he proposed to go back.

Learning from the lesson from last time, Du Ruo didn't dare to throw the money at home to see his father off, so he could only send him to the alley to take a taxi.

Father and daughter walked side by side, Du Ruo reluctant to part.

"Dad, I guess I won't be able to go back to Xuancheng this Chinese New Year. You should pay attention to your health. Xiaofan has to go to the hospital for regular check-ups, and the anti-rejection medicine can't be stopped. You should pay more attention to him."

"Well, don't worry about Xiaofan, he can take care of himself as an adult, but you, as a mother, have a heavier responsibility on your shoulders, take care of yourself, eat what you need, don't think about us."

Du Liangxin stopped, looked at Du Ruo's face, and felt distressed: "Look at your complexion and thinness, you have to take care of your body quickly, otherwise it will be troublesome to get the root of the disease in the future. It will take a lot of time for the child to let the confinement wife mess with it." You were invited here at a high price, why are you working so hard?"

Du Ruo smiled and didn't retort: ​​"I know, but it's my son, so I don't worry about letting Auntie Ding do it all."

Seeing that Du Liang couldn't persuade her, he also went with her.

The entrance to the alley will arrive soon, and parting is imminent.

Du Liangxing took out a card from the interlayer of the half-worn travel bag and stuffed it into Du Ruo's hand.

"What's this?"

"Your mother's compensation, I took out some of it when the funeral was held, and the rest remained unchanged! Xiaofan means that the money must be given to you, and I agree."

"I don't want it!" Du Ruo refused very quickly, and returned the bank card to Du Liangxin.

"Don't be stubborn, Xiao Ruo, Dad knows that it's not easy for you to be out alone. You haven't saved any money for Xiaofan these years. Now that the child needs money, you can't go to work for the time being, so I still Put the card away."

"I really don't want it!" Du Ruo's voice was choked up, as if the cassette had stung his hand, "Dad, this is Mom's compensation. I'm mostly responsible for Mom's death. Do you think I can spend this money?"

A pain that time can't heal.
