Ma Xiaohui's mother smiled bitterly at Mrs. Gao when she heard Mrs. Gao asking about Tong Ling. Then, she pretended that nothing had happened and said to Mrs. Gao," Look at what you're saying. All these years, I've never treated you as an outsider. How can I hide anything from you?"
"Let's not talk about anything else. Let's just say that I've known Mrs. Tong for quite a long time. How can I not know what kind of person Mrs. Tong is? You said that Mrs. Tong left angrily just because you said a few words to her. It's not like I don't know what kind of person you are. Your words are even more detailed than those who read the account books. What kind of words could make Mrs. Tong so angry? That's why I said that this is absolutely impossible. Anyway, you didn't tell me the truth.”Mrs. Gao said angrily.
Ma Xiaohui's mother knew that she was in the wrong and did not say anything else.
If this was someone else, they would definitely have a reason for not wanting to talk about it. Anyone with a little bit of shrewdness would not ask anymore. However, Mrs. Gao was a stubborn person. When she saw that Ma Xiaohui's mother was silent, she was even more certain that there must be something fishy going on.
"All these years, I've always treated you like my own sister. Tell me, have I been hiding anything from you? No, absolutely not. Even if I were to fart, I would have to tell you first. You're good. You're even playing tricks on me about whether you're coming or not. Seeing you stammer and stutter, I'm angry.”After saying this, Mrs. Gao buried her head in the blanket and ignored Ma Xiaohui's mother.
Ma Xiaohui's mother felt very bad when she saw Mrs. Gao like this. She thought to herself,'Mrs. Gao has been treating us well all these years. I shouldn't have kept it from her. But how can I say this out loud? If people find out, even if they spit on us, they will drown us!' Thinking of this, Ma Xiaohui's mother couldn't help but cheer.
Hearing Ma Xiaohui's mother's voice, Mrs. Gao, who was under the blanket, couldn't hold it in anymore. She poked her head out from under the blanket and shouted at Ma Xiaohui's mother," What's the matter? Look at how aggrieved you are. These three stooges can still withstand Zhuge Liang. If you tell me, I might be able to give you a plan or something, right?”
Mrs. Gao was soft at one moment and hard at the next. Ma Xiaohui's mother could not stand it anymore.
She had no choice but to tell Mrs. Gao everything about Ma Xiaohui and Tong Ling. When Mrs. Gao heard this, she immediately sat up from under the blanket. She raised her voice and said," Oh my god, is Xiaohui going crazy? What is he doing? How can a student get together with a teacher? I've lived for so long, but I've never heard of it.”
"Yes, I said the same thing about him, but he didn't listen to me.”Ma Xiaohui's mother said helplessly.
" Besides, Mrs. Tong is so much older than Xiao Hui. What's the big deal?" Mrs. Gao said.
" Yeah, who says so?" Ma Xiaohui's mother said.
"Then, what is Mrs. Tong thinking?”Mrs. Gao asked Ma Xiaohui's mother.
"You don't have to ask what she's thinking. Xiaohui has seen a lot of people, but he can't even see a single one. She hasn't gotten a partner either. Isn't this like the lice on a bald head?”Ma Xiaohui's mother said angrily.
"I don't think this will work. Let's not talk about anything else. What teacher or student? How many years older are they? Let's just talk about Mrs. Tong's malaria.”Mrs. Gao said.
"I didn't think much about her lungs. I just said that it's absolutely impossible for a student to marry a teacher.”Ma Xiaohui's mother said.
" Look, Xiaohui went to the hospital to accompany her again tonight. How can you let him go? Won't they stick together again?" Mrs. Gao said angrily.
"She's sick. We can't leave her alone. Actually, she's also a child with a hard life. She doesn't have any relatives here.”Ma Xiaohui's mother sighed.
" That's true. But when she's discharged from the hospital and has recovered, you have to tell her that you can't do it. If you say no, it means absolutely no. Tell her clearly and make her give up completely. If you can't tell her, I'll tell her," Mrs. Gao said to Ma Xiaohui's mother.
"Alright, your words are faster than mine. You should go and say it.”Ma Xiaohui's mother said to Mrs. Gao.
"Alright, leave this to me. Don't worry.”Mrs. Gao said confidently.
In the hospital ward, Tong Ling had just finished her IV drip. On the bedside table were the millet porridge that Ma Xiaohui had bought for her and her favorite stir-fried shredded potatoes with meat. Ma Xiaohui was using a wet towel to wipe Tong Ling's hands." I just bought this from the porridge shop outside the hospital. After you wipe your hands, eat it while it's still hot."”Ma Xiaohui said to Tong Ling as he wiped her hands.
Tong Ling did not answer. She just sat on the hospital bed in a daze. At this moment, the nurse came in with a thermometer. Ma Xiaohui took the thermometer from the nurse's hand and walked in front of Tong Ling. He handed the thermometer to Tong Ling. The nurse looked at Ma Xiaohui and couldn't help but laugh. The nurse said to Ma Xiaohui," You're really interesting. You're so shy with your wife. Can't you just put it in her armpit?" After saying that, the nurse went to another ward.
When Ma Xiaohui heard what the nurse said, he walked up to Tong Ling. At this time, Tong Ling had already placed the thermometer in her armpit. Ma Xiaohui looked at Tong Ling a little unnaturally.
The nurse took the thermometer away and told Tong Ling that her temperature had dropped. Seeing that the nurse had left, Ma Xiaohui hurriedly said to Tong Ling," Your body temperature has dropped. You should eat quickly. That way, your body will recover faster."”
Ma Xiaohui's last sentence was effective. In order to recover as soon as possible, Tong Ling forced herself to drink the millet porridge in the lunch box.
Seeing Tong Ling finish the porridge, Ma Xiaohui was naturally very happy. He tidied up the lunchboxes and leftovers on the bedside table and took the thermos to the bathroom.
Not long after, Ma Xiaohui returned with a thermos bottle. He first poured a glass of water for Tong Ling and placed it on the bedside table. Then, he bent down and took out a washbasin from under the bed. He turned around and went to the bathroom.
Ma Xiaohui came back with a basin of water in his hands.
" Let me wash your feet," Ma Xiaohui said to Tong Ling.
" I'll do it myself," Tong Ling said.
Ma Xiaohui placed the basin at Tong Ling's feet and rolled up Tong Ling's pants without any explanation.
Ma Xiaohui squatted at Tong Ling's feet. He carefully rubbed Tong Ling's feet with his hands. After rubbing for a while, he took out soap and wiped Tong Ling's feet. After washing them clean, he took out a towel and wrapped them up.
Then, Ma Xiaohui brought the water to the bathroom.
Tong Ling looked at Ma Xiaohui's back and couldn't help but feel a lump in her throat. Tears flowed out again.
If Ma Xiaohui had not gone to her dormitory today, no one would have known that she had died inside. The more Tong Ling thought about it, the more afraid she felt.
At this moment, Ma Xiaohui walked in with a washbasin. Tong Ling quickly wiped her eyes with her hands. She did not want Ma Xiaohui to see her crying. However, Ma Xiaohui could tell that Tong Ling was crying just now. He placed the basin under the bed and sat beside Tong Ling." Why are you crying?”
Who knew that when Ma Xiaohui asked this question, Tong Ling could no longer control herself. She threw herself into Ma Xiaohui's arms and burst into tears.
From what Ma Xiaohui's mother said to Tong Ling yesterday to how sick she was now, Tong Ling felt wronged. She did not know anything about the whole thing, but Ma Xiaohui's mother said those things about her. No matter how wronged she was, she could not vent it on Ma Xiaohui's mother. Tong Ling was a person with extremely strong self-esteem. She had never experienced this before!
Ma Xiaohui wanted to persuade Tong Ling when he saw her crying so sadly. However, what could he say? Tong Ling was crying in Ma Xiaohui's arms, but Ma Xiaohui's tears fell onto Tong Ling's hair drop by drop.
Ma Xiaohui hugged Tong Ling tightly with both hands, as if he was afraid that she would break free from his embrace and run away.
This was the first time Tong Ling and Ma Xiaohui had such close contact in their lives. Tong Ling cried for a long time before she slowly woke up. Suddenly, she broke free from Ma Xiaohui's arm with a whoosh. Then, she looked straight at Ma Xiaohui. Her eyes were asking," What's wrong with Fang Cai? Why am I in Ma Xiaohui's arms?" Suddenly, Tong Ling understood. She hugged her head tightly with her hands and shook it desperately. She kept shouting," Oh my God, what's wrong with me? What's wrong with me?"”
Seeing Tong Ling like this, Ma Xiaohui could no longer control the love he had for Tong Ling that had been suppressed in his heart for so many years. His love was like a fierce volcano that erupted in an instant. He hugged Tong Ling's body without caring about anything else." I love you, I just love you," Ma Xiaohui shouted as he hugged Tong Ling. Tong Ling tried her best to break free from Ma Xiaohui's arms. However, Ma Xiaohui's arms were like an unbreakable pair of pliers, firmly holding Tong Ling. No matter how hard she struggled, she was still tightly hugged by Ma Xiaohui.
Tong Ling's helpless eyes were tightly shut. Suddenly, she heard a voice. It was the sound of Ma Xiaohui's heartbeat.
Ma Xiaohui's arms that were hugging Tong Ling were trembling non-stop. No, his entire body was trembling.
At this moment, Tong Ling no longer struggled because her heart was beating like a drum. Her body was also trembling non-stop. She was like a docile lamb, snuggling softly in Ma Xiaohui's broad arms.
