"That's nonsense, how can we still stop the water supply?"
Wang Zikun got up and walked to the kitchen a little puzzled, but his wife closed the door as soon as he entered.
Knowing that the two of them had something to say, I didn't intentionally eavesdrop out of politeness. I sat on the sofa and waited for five or six minutes before Wang Zikun came out with that unhappy expression.
He sat back on the sofa: "Wait a minute, the meal will be ready in about an hour. Do you want to eat something else? Or maybe I will order some smoked sauce for takeout now, and want a pot of pork or something?"
"
"No, just eat whatever you want. Guobaorou doesn't taste good when it's delivered as a takeaway."
I thought that since we were so familiar with him, there was no need to go around, so I asked him directly: "What's wrong? Does this mean that my sister-in-law is not happy to let you go with me?"
"Ah, it's okay, don't worry about her."
Wang Zikun was also quite honest and told me directly: "Women are like this. They worry about this and that all the time. It's okay. I just explained to her what we should do."
He said that nothing happened, so I didn't continue: "Then we'll leave after dinner, and I'll try to shorten the process as much as possible, and try to finish the matter in ten or eight days.
Don't let sister-in-law worry about you."
"Okay, you can make your own arrangements, business is more important."
Wang Zikun lit a cigarette, and after taking two puffs, he suddenly said: "Yeah, I've never dealt with this group of people. To be honest, I'm a little nervous."
"Hey, why are you so nervous? I just want to take advantage of this opportunity to give you a long experience."
I didn't say anything after that, picked up the remote control and turned on his TV for a while.
Later, his wife prepared the meal and served it. The three of us sat there and ate a few bites. In the middle of the meal, his wife went back to the bedroom to pack things. When we were about to finish eating, she came out carrying a small suitcase: "Hubby
You finish cleaning up and I'll leave first."
"Okay, I won't clean it up anymore. Let the housekeeper come over at the weekend and let her clean it up."
Wang Zikun waved to her with chopsticks: "Be careful when driving on the road."
"knew."
Before leaving, she even said hello to me: "Then I'll leave Jiang Shu first, and we'll contact you next time."
"What a good sister-in-law, I'll treat you two to dinner when you come back next time."
I felt like I came a little too early. It was actually only noon when we finished eating.
Originally, I wanted to stay for a while, but I didn't expect that Wang Zikun was in a hurry: "We've finished our meal, shall we set off? Go early and finish things early."
"No need. If you go early, you won't be able to finish things early."
I stared at the TV screen for a while: "Hey, tell me, should we go to the hospital first?"
He asked me: "Do you want to see Zhang Qi's mother?"
I said 'ah': "That's for sure, no one else is hospitalized except her."
"If you want to go, I'll go with you. What a big deal."
Wang Zikun stood up and put his mobile phone, wallet, car keys and other things in his pocket: "Let's go, let's go there now."
"Why are you so anxious? Do you know which ward her mother is in?"
"Isn't it just a phone call? It's not like I don't have the phone numbers of those two girls."
He took out his cell phone again and tried to dial: "I guess you know these two women. We have had dinner together several times before. One of them is quite sexy. She said she wants to be with me. Do you remember the one named Xu Mengyuan?"
No?"
I really feel like he is showing off to me.
He didn't answer the call: "The main thing is that I don't know what to say when I meet Zhang Qi's mother. Besides, her mother knows a little bit about our past affairs. They can't ask me after we get there?"
Wang Zikun looked at me with that incomprehensible look: "There's something wrong with you. It's you who said I wanted to see you. It's you who said I didn't know what to say when we met. What do you want to do?"
I was a little embarrassed, and after thinking for a while, I said to him: "Why don't I go, please help me go there, buy some fruit for her mother, get some money and so on.
If her mother doesn't want it after all, you can just give her the money and pay it to the hospitalization fee. After all, I owe Zhang Qi a favor. Although this kind of love can't be measured in money, I feel better at least."
"No, what is your relationship with Zhang Qi now?"
Wang Zikun was still a little confused: "Why do you owe her a favor again when you are playing? Are you two in contact now or not?"
"Why do you care if we have any contact? If we don't have contact, why can't I see her mother?"
"That's possible."
Wang Zikun said as he walked to the bedroom: "I'm going to get some cash. How much is appropriate for her?"
Without thinking, I told him: "It's worth 100,000 to 80,000 yuan. Cancer is useless even if it's less."
As soon as he heard what I said, Wang Zikun stopped where he was: "I really don't have so much cash at home. When I go out later, I will find a bank to get some, and then send it to her mother."
"No, I have it here. I can pay it directly to her hospitalization deposit."
Then we both left his house and walked to the underground parking lot. When Wang Zikun made a phone call and found out the ward number where Zhang Qi's mother was hospitalized, he drove us there.
I bought some fruits and nutritional supplements downstairs, and when Wang Zikun went upstairs, I took my card and went to the payment place. However, when I reported my bed number to the person who paid the fee and told her that I wanted to deposit a deposit, she was stunned.
The look on his face made me feel that something was wrong.
Sure enough, the nurse clicked on the computer a few times, and then asked me in a puzzled tone: "Didn't Bed 36 just complete the discharge procedures, and the debt has been settled, what else do you have to pay?"
"Just finished being discharged from the hospital?"
I stretched my neck to the nurse: "When did it happen?"
She turned the monitor around: "It's just this morning. The time you see is 10:36. It's less than two hours since I was discharged from the hospital."
The first thought that came to my mind at that time was: Zhang Qi is back.
Sure enough, the phone in his trouser pocket vibrated. It was Wang Zikun who made a voice call.
Then I heard him say: "Shu, it seems we are a little late?"
I asked him: "Did Zhang Qi be picked up by her mother?"
Wang Zikun said: "Yes, I just asked the aunt in the bed next door. The aunt said that the girl in the bed next to me came over two days ago. She is a pretty girl and is here to accompany her. Then we discussed it yesterday and decided
I was discharged from the hospital and went home for conservative treatment.
Anyway, I feel that that should be Zhang Qi, do you still remember her home address, why don’t we go over and take a look?”
In fact, I really want to go to Zhang Qi's house to take a look. If she really returned to the provincial capital to pick up her mother, then I would feel relieved.
But when I think about it, I still have a lot of things to do, and I don’t know when it will be time to meet Zhang Qi.
I said to Wang Zikun: "No, let's do this for now. You go downstairs now and we will go find the Taoist priests in Kunlun. We are not in a hurry about going to Zhang Qi's house. We will talk about it after we come back."
