Nurses 'Day passed quickly amidst the busy schedule. Zhang Yu, Liu Xue, and I didn't disappoint. We won the trophy as the first place in the group. In the face of such good results, the department director and the chief nurse were overjoyed. The hospital leaders even praised them for their strong organization and good leadership. As for us insignificant pawns, no one would take us to heart even if we were to sacrifice our lives for the department. The only gift the hospital gave us was a two-day break. I have never liked those cliché prizes. A vacation is a good reward for me. After nearly half a month of exhaustion, going back to sleep is the proper thing to do. However, Liu Xue was so angry that her almond-shaped eyes widened in anger. She cursed that the bonus had been taken by some of the hospital's leaders. I knew that she was hinting at the head nurse and the department director and had deducted the bonus given by the hospital. I just smiled indifferently. Based on my understanding of the head nurse over the years, she would definitely not do such a thing. As for the lecherous and money-grubbing department director, it was hard to say. Money was something that was outside of my body. Although I wasn't a very rich person, I really didn't have much desire for money. It was because having money or not was a lifetime. I only wanted to live a peaceful and happy life.
Zhang Yu looked at Liu Xue who kept complaining and only lowered his head and sighed. Actually, among the three of us, she is the one who needs the most money. I know that Zhang Yu has a gentle personality. In addition, she is only a contract worker hired by the department. Naturally, she does not want to anger the hospital's leaders for a little money and lose the job that she had found with difficulty. Just as the three of us were feeling depressed, the head nurse very considerately said that in addition to the two days of leave given by the hospital, the department would give the three of us an additional day of rest. We immediately cheered and began to plan how to squander this hard-earned holiday.
Zhang Yu packed his luggage that afternoon and prepared to take the 10 pm train back to his hometown. I sent Zhang Yu to the train station and watched as the train slowly moved on the track into the distance. Suddenly, my heart felt empty. Yanzi has been in the south for almost two weeks. I called her phone last night, but she actually turned it off. I wonder how her conversation with that old man went?
Since I didn't have Yanzi to accompany me on vacation, I could only obediently go home to see my mother. Her blood pressure was very unstable these days. I was afraid that she would have an accident, so I told her not to do too much housework. I could take advantage of this free time to help my mother wash clothes and cook. It could also be considered as a show of filial piety as a daughter.
I was supposed to do the housework voluntarily and should be happy to do it, but my mother nagged behind me and insisted that I give her a guarantee that I would be able to bring my boyfriend home on that day. After listening to my mother's nagging for the entire morning, the wound that had healed in my heart was torn apart again. Thinking about my one-sided love, I felt even more depressed. However, I knew that my mom was doing this for my own good. Since I had already lied to her last time and said that I would bring my boyfriend home after a while, it had been almost half a month since the incident. It was understandable that she was anxious and urged me. In order to stop Mom from worrying about this matter, I had no choice but to continue this white lie until the end and stabilize her temporarily.
I forced a smile and told my mom that I would bring Lu Kai over to our house as soon as summer vacation started. My mother was very angry at my repeated refusal, but she also knew that Lu Kai's job was special and she couldn't delay the students because of these small matters. In the end, she could only say that if I still couldn't bring him home during the summer vacation, she would immediately get someone to introduce me to a partner and try to marry me off at the end of the year. She could also help me take care of the child while her body was still healthy.
My heart ached when I saw my mother's gray hair. Almost all the old people who are about the same age as my mother have grandchildren. I'm not young anymore, but I still have to worry about her. It's really unfilial. In order to make Mom feel better, I gave her some blood pressure medicine and encouraged her to go out and play mahjong. Perhaps she could temporarily forget about this unhappy matter in the crackling sound of mahjong.
Time passed quickly as I was busy with housework. On the afternoon of the third day, I was sleeping soundly when my phone suddenly rang, waking me up from my beautiful dream. I picked up the phone in a daze, thinking that Yanzi had flown back from the south. I was about to scold her for not coming back a day earlier when Xiao Yang's familiar voice came from the other end of the phone."Ye Qiu, the department wants us to go to the suburbs to pick up patients.”
"What is it? I'm on vacation. Did the Head Guard forget?”When I heard that it was Xiao Yang, and that it was about work, I suddenly lost all sleepiness. An inexplicable fire couldn't help but surge into my heart. It's easy for me to take a break. Why does the department come to me whenever there's something wrong? Are the others all freeloaders?
"The Head Nurse knows that you're on leave, but there was a major traffic accident in the suburbs, and the department really doesn't have enough manpower. That's why he wanted to call you over for an emergency.”Xiao Yang shouted anxiously.
When I heard that it was a major traffic accident and that life was more important than anything else, all my dissatisfaction immediately disappeared. I said anxiously,"How did this happen? Are there many casualties?"
"I'm not too sure about the situation over there. It's just that the people from the Emergency Department and our department have all been mobilized.”Xiao Yang said seriously.
When I heard that the medical staff from both departments were busy, I thought that there must be many injured people. In order to save more lives, I immediately shouted,"Okay, I'll go to the hospital now."
"You don't have to go to the hospital. Go straight to the scene of the accident. I'll send you the address later.”
"That works too. I'll be there immediately!" I hung up the phone and quickly got out of bed. I left a note for my mother, changed my shoes, and ran downstairs.
The address that Xiao Yang gave me was about a dozen stops away from my residential area. In order to save time, I didn't care about the expensive taxi fare. After leaving the residential area, I stopped a passing taxi and hurriedly got in.
"To the East City Development Zone!" I closed the door and told the taxi driver.
The taxi driver was a middle-aged man in his fifties. He smiled and nodded before driving the car toward his destination. The traffic was relatively smooth along the way, but when the taxi reached a street not far from the scene of the accident, the passing pedestrians and vehicles actually surrounded the street. I looked at the various cars that were honking and lying on the road. I anxiously shouted,"How unlucky. Why is this place so congested?”
The driver sighed gloomily." It was very congested here yesterday. It seems that there are problems with the quality of the buildings in a residential area. Hundreds of residents surrounded the sales office, causing the traffic on the entire street to be blocked. I heard that the matter was resolved last night, so I thought that it would be fine if I took this route today. I didn't expect it to be the same today. If I had known that it would delay time like this, I wouldn't have come here.”
I know that in today's society, time is money, and taxi drivers hate being stuck in traffic, but who would have expected such a sudden thing? If I had known that this street was so congested, I would never have let the driver take this road even if I had to pay more.
"Master, I'm in a hurry. Why don't you take a detour?”
The taxi driver turned to look at me and sneered,""I also want to take a detour, but it's so congested that there's no way to turn around. If you're in a hurry, just walk over!”
There were still two streets between here and where I was going. If I walked there, it would take at least an hour. I was afraid that those poor people at the scene of the accident would lose their lives because of my delay. No, no matter what, I have to get the driver to send me to the scene as soon as possible.
"Master, I'm a nurse from the city hospital. I just received a notice from the department that a major traffic accident has occurred in the East City Development Zone. I'm in a hurry to rush to the scene to participate in the rescue.”I was so anxious that I almost cried. I looked at the taxi driver pitifully.
The driver stared at me doubtfully and said seriously,"Is what you said true? I've been listening to the traffic radio today. Why didn't I listen to the radio report?”
I cursed this uncle in my heart for being so long-winded. The traffic accident had just happened. I'm afraid the reporters from the traffic radio station still don't know!
"Why would I lie to you? Hurry up and think of a way to leave. If you're late, more people will die!”I looked at the driver anxiously and deliberately made things sound serious.
The driver saw that I didn't seem to be lying. He looked at the surrounding road conditions seriously and nodded with a smile."Alright, I'll send you there immediately!" As he spoke, he honked his horn and carefully started to reverse the car. This uncle's skills were really good. In an extremely small space, he managed to turn the taxi around safely in less than three minutes.
"Let's go!" The taxi driver smiled happily and stepped on the accelerator. He avoided more than ten private cars and quickly drove onto another wide street.
I anxiously took out my phone from my pocket to look at the time. It had been almost half an hour since I left the house. Xiao Yang was probably already impatient. At this moment, my phone suddenly rang. I thought it was Xiao Yang calling to rush me, but it turned out to be my mother.
"Mom, what's wrong?"
His mother's angry voice came from the other end of the phone."Aren't you on vacation? Why did you go out again? It's your birthday today. Mom went out to buy you a cake, but when I came home, I only saw the note you left!”
Oh my god, I've been so busy recently that I even forgot my birthday. No wonder Mom said mysteriously this morning that she would cook braised carp for me in the afternoon. However, it was useless to say anything now. No matter how delicious the braised fish was, they had to wait until they reached the scene of the accident and send the injured to the hospital.
"Mom, wait for me at home. I'll send the injured to the hospital and go home immediately!”
"I'm busy with work all day long. Alright, Mom will wait for you at home." His mother mumbled and hung up the phone unhappily.
I stuffed my phone into my pocket and looked out the window at the cars speeding past. I couldn't help but feel inexplicably sad. Today is my 29th birthday, but I forgot about it completely. If it wasn't for my mom remembering this special day, I'm afraid I would have been so busy today. Actually, I can't be blamed for being careless. It's just that when I was with Gu Cheng in the past, he would carefully write down all the special days on his phone. No matter how busy the company was on that day, he would go home early. He would not lack flowers or gifts. Then, he would bring me to a high-class hotel for a romantic candlelight dinner. I still remember that on my birthday last year, he was by my side the whole day. He took me to the Ferris wheel, bought me a crystal necklace, and even accompanied me to eat my favorite barbecue. The past is still vivid in my mind, but the man who once loved me deeply has already embraced another woman. This birthday is only waiting for me to feel sad and tired. At this moment, I only hope that there won't be too many injured people at the scene of the traffic accident, so that I can go home early and eat braised fish with my mother and sing happy birthday songs.
Soon, the taxi arrived at its destination. The driver parked the car by the roadside and smiled."Miss, we're here!" As he spoke, he tore off the ticket that I should pay for the fare from the meter.
"Alright, thank you!" I took the receipt and looked at it. The smile on my face immediately froze. Oh my god, it's actually 100 yuan.
Although I felt sorry for this hard-earned hundred yuan bill, it wasn't that the driver wanted to blackmail me. I could only blame the street for being too crowded and taking a detour.
"Here!" I took out two 50 yuan notes from my pocket and handed them to the driver.
The driver took a fifty and returned the other fifty to me. I looked at the driver in confusion and said seriously,"Isn't it 100 yuan?"
"Blame me for choosing the wrong path. Hurry up and get out of the car to save her!" the driver said solemnly.
I didn't think too much about it when I heard about saving people. I stuffed the fifty yuan into my pocket, opened the car door, and ran towards the street.
