After Wang Hong's interview with her husband, Zhao Guoqing, was broadcast, she would be surprised and praise anyone she met, whether on the way to work, on the street, or in the shops. You two are so enviable! Her family was harmonious and beautiful, and it suddenly became a topic of concern for her peers. Sometimes, they would sit together and even talk about family matters.
When women were together, they liked to talk about husbands. In school, as long as the female teachers gathered together, Zhao Guoqing would become a hot topic, and the content of the conversation about her husband would become richer. Especially the conversation that he had broadcasted that time. He had winked at his wife on TV, making these women feel like they were eating frozen mung bean soup in summer. Teacher Zhang, who taught mathematics, also revealed even bigger news: After watching the television, she immediately asked her husband to wink at her like Zhao Guoqing. He had been flying for almost the entire night, but he couldn't fly like Zhao Guoqing.”
The English teacher saw that she was beaming with joy and asked in confusion,"Zhao Guoqing's flirtatious eyes, what kind of taste do they have?”
"He can make your wife look like she's drunk and you'll faint.”He didn't know which teacher had explained it this way.
" Yo," someone shrieked,""You also tasted Zhao Guoqing?”
This time, the teachers burst into laughter again.
Teacher Zhang did not smile. He was still as serious as ever."Don't laugh at me, but women are all the same. This is what life is all about.”
"Your husband's flirtatious eyes can't compare to Zhao Guoqing's. What happened after that?”
"I'll punish you ruthlessly."
"Punishment?" The teachers laughed and asked,"Why did you punish me?”
"After we got into bed, I drew the 38th parallel with him and locked him up. When I can 'fly' to Zhao Guoqing's level, I'll lift the alert.”
When the teachers heard this, they laughed so hard that they couldn't breathe. They held their stomachs and shouted," Ouch!"
Later, as long as they talked about husbands, they would naturally compare themselves with Zhao Guoqing. They would ask who's husband was more inferior to Zhao Guoqing, and so on. It was as if Zhao Guoqing was the standard for husbands.
However, when Wang Hong was alone, her heart sank. Ever since they quarreled over the diamond ring, the two of them had not said a word to each other, as if they were strangers. Especially when Zhao Guoqing quietly took the blanket and moved into his study, Wang Hong felt particularly worried. Was this the husband that people praised?
When school was about to end, President Yang of the Municipal Women's Federation specially came to the school to inform her. It was said that this year, in order to increase the construction of spiritual civilization, the province would select 100 "dual civilized families" in the province. In order to cooperate with this provincial activity, the municipal party committee decided that the municipal civilization committee and the municipal women's federation would jointly host the selection of 100 "dual civilized families" in the city. After her family's last broadcast on television, there was a huge response from the community. She was currently included in the selection. He told her to ask Zhao Guoqing to write an advanced material and send it to the Women's Federation's publicity department. Wang Hong listened to Chairman Yang's words and thought, I haven't spoken to him yet, how should I call him? She hesitated for a moment and stammered,"President Yang, to be honest, our family is not well off.”
When Chairman Yang heard this, he couldn't help but smile happily."Not only are you qualified, you might even enter the province. I know Zhao Guoqing is a famous writer in the city. Let him write!”
" But..." Wang Hong didn't know what to say and stopped.
President Yang said cheerfully," Teacher Wang, don't be so humble. Let your husband write this material and send it over next Monday."”
Principal Hu was very happy when he heard that Wang Hong's family was going to be rated as an advanced family. He strongly recommended it from the side. Wang Hong had no choice but to agree. How was he going to tell National Day? After school, Wang Hong felt as if there was a stone in her heart. When she entered, she saw her daughter, Zhao Rui, at home. She pulled her daughter over and asked,"Did grandma send you back?"”
" No," Zhao Rui said." Dad picked me up."”
Wang Hongxin wondered how he was going to tell him what Chairman Yang had instructed him to do at home.
During dinner, Wang Hong looked at him from the corner of her eyes a few times, but he still lowered his head and ate without saying a word. After dinner, she went to bed early.
Taking the initiative to talk to him? No, Wang Hong felt that she could not bring herself to do so.
The night was quiet. Wang Hong woke up and heard a sigh from the next room. She was familiar with this voice. It was from Zhao Guoqing.
He was not asleep yet? Wang Hongxin was shocked.
It seemed that National Day was still holding a grudge over the ring. Wang Hong felt that he had misunderstood her. How could she explain this? He was currently in a fit of anger, so it was better to wait. However, he still had to find a way to tell him about Chairman Yang.
The next morning, Zhao Guoqing heard his daughter's voice in his sleep." Dad, wake up.”He hurriedly opened his eyes. It was indeed his daughter, Zhao Rui. Zhao Guoqing grabbed his daughter's hand and said,""Today is the weekend. Why are you up so early?”
"Mom doesn't want to talk to you. She asked me to send you a note."”As he spoke, he handed a note to Zhao Guoqing. Zhao Guoqing took the note and read it. There was a line of words on it:
Yesterday, the City Women's Federation informed me that this year's city-wide selection of the five good families, they want you
Write a copy of our family's advanced materials.
A good family? Zhao Guoqing found it funny. Based on what had happened in the past few days, they still had a good family? To hell with them. Zhao Guoqing was instantly filled with anger. He did not have time to think about it and threw the note aside, ignoring it.
Tao Daniu's diamond ring was still like a sharp knife, stabbing deeply into Zhao Guoqing's heart, making his chest bleed. He felt that this matter had caused his dignity to be completely destroyed. If Wang Hong did not explain clearly, he would definitely not tolerate it. Other than his wife's anger, Zhao Guoqing still had many things to worry about. Jiang Feng had just arrived in Red City and was not familiar with the environment. Even if it was a small matter, he would still call. Now, she had proposed to raise a child. This matter was not over yet. Wang Ti called again and again. Her little aunt had returned from Australia. Through a meeting in the province, she wanted to start a wine company. She might also come to Xuancheng to meet her. Now that they had finally come across a high-tech agricultural park, they only wanted to plant the red grape well so that the agricultural park could produce benefits as soon as possible. They had no time to stir up the matter of wine. He had to go to Jiangbin's side. If he took over this stall, he had to be responsible for them. These things were all jumbled up in his head, making it difficult to sort them out. Many a time, when one was doing something in one's hand, one's mind was thinking about something else, resulting in a lot of mistakes.
" Dad." Zhao Rui picked up her mother's note again and waited impatiently by the bed. She showed him the note and pouted."How am I supposed to tell Mom?"
His daughter's words interrupted Zhao Guoqing's thoughts. He took the note and looked at it again. He thought to himself," The Five Good Families are holy. They are role models for people in all aspects. Is our family that holy?"
After quarreling with Wang Hong, he still hadn't said anything. Was this kind of husband and wife relationship enough for that kind of title? At this moment, he suddenly thought of what happened with Jiang Feng. Was this considered an extramarital affair? He couldn't help but shiver when he thought of the word 'extramarital affairs'. No, it didn't count! He felt that he truly loved Jiang Feng and did not lie to her!
However, he had slept with her. How could he explain this?
Thinking of this, he collapsed on the bed.
Now, his moral bottom line was retreating step by step. Her relationship with Jiang Feng had not been resolved yet, and Wang Ti had appeared recently. To be honest, this Wang Ti made his heart ache even more. He was afraid that she would be so crazy, but he also liked her craziness very much, especially the kind of love that she had without caring about anything. To be able to rush up and kiss her crazily in public, although he pushed her away, his heart was sweet and he felt very good. How dirty was everything about him? Could he be considered a good husband?
If he said that he was not a good husband, he would not accept it either. However, if he was listed as a model husband, he would feel guilty. So he tore a piece of paper from his notebook, thought about it, and wrote on it:
We all have to think carefully. Is this family good enough?
Zhao Rui took the note that her father had written and walked over to Wang Hong."Mom, Dad wrote to you too.”
After reading the message, Wang Hong felt that the subtext of " think about it carefully " was very clear. It seemed that he was not done with the ring. The relationship between husband and wife that had lasted for more than ten years could not withstand a little wind and rain. Why was it so fragile? She felt heartache, disappointment, and annoyance. He angrily tore the note and said to Zhao Rui,"I'll write another note to your father."
Zhao Rui took the note and said,"Mom, I've become your communicator."”
Wang Hong, who did not want to be angry, was amused by the girl's innocent words. Thinking of the live broadcast that day, she said,"It's not easy to be a good communicator.”
Although Wang Hong and Zhao Guoqing rarely quarreled, they ignored each other when it happened. When there was something that could not be stopped, he could only let his daughter pass it on with a note.
Wang Hong wrote on her husband's note:
"I don't have anything to think about. If you don't meet the conditions, then it means that you have some unspeakable privacy!”
Zhao Rui brought the note that her mother had written to the study room. Zhao Guoqing had already gotten up. He took the note from his daughter's hand and looked at it. He was stunned. He was very sensitive to these two words. It was as if Wang Hong could see everything in the depths of his heart. He immediately panicked. Zhao Rui noticed her father's uneasy expression and asked in confusion,"Dad, what's wrong? You look terrible.”
Zhao Guoqing changed the topic and said,"Your mother is talking bad about me again."”
"Who told you to be afraid of your wife?" Zhao Rui said.”
Zhao Rui was so naughty and clever that Zhao Guoqing laughed again.
"I know. Mom wants you to write about the good things in our family.”Zhao Rui seemed unhappy." You want me to be an advanced student in school? Why don't you do that?"”
"You can't write this." Zhao Guoqing bent down and explained lovingly.
"Mom said I can write." Zhao Rui said,"If you say you can't, then go and explain to Mom."”
"Alright, I'll tell your mother." Zhao Guoqing wrote it on Wang Hong's note and handed it to his daughter, saying,""Can you give it to your mother?"
Zhao Rui was smart. She saw that her father seemed to be quite happy, so she reached out her hand to Zhao Guoqing and said,"Dad, I'm going to charge you for the information this time.”
"We should take it," Zhao Guoqing quickly said.”As he spoke, he quickly gave Zhao Rui five yuan, as if he had obtained some relief from his heart.
Zhao Rui gave the note to Wang Hong and said,""This is for you. However, I won't charge you the information fee.”
Wang Hong took the note and looked at it. She seemed to be angry. She immediately tore the note and said,"Your father is so bad."
"What happened to Daddy?" Zhao Rui asked in confusion.
"He doesn't write about the materials at home."
"Mom, let me help you." As Zhao Rui spoke, she went to the living room and sat beside Zhao Guoqing. She said,"Daddy, I'm ignoring you."
"Why are you ignoring me?" Zhao Guoqing was shocked.”
"Mom said that you don't write materials for the family!”
Two days later, Wang Hong felt a little pain in her stomach during her second class. For some reason, her stomach would hurt a little at times. She endured it and got better, so she didn't mind. For some reason, it was starting to hurt again, but not very badly. She was used to enduring illnesses as long as she could. Sure enough, the pain disappeared after a while.
When she came back from school at night, she felt a little pain in her stomach. It seemed to be worse than in the morning. She should go to the doctor tomorrow, she thought.
Today, President Yang of the Municipal Women's Federation called her again to urge her to get the materials. When Wang Hong entered the house, she saw Zhao Guoqing at home. He was sitting on the sofa watching TV. When she walked past him, he didn't even look at her. It seemed that his " cold war " had not " unfrozen " yet. He didn't know whether it was because of the Cold War or because he really felt that it wasn't enough to comment on the " Five Virtuous Families ". Until now, he hadn't seen the materials. If he really thought that it was not enough, then there was something wrong with him. Did he really do something shameful? Ever since they got married, she had 100% trust in her husband and had never thought about anything else. Therefore, she did not know anything. She didn't want to think too much about these things. The key now was the materials for the " Five Good Families." On the other side, Chairman Yang was warm-hearted, hoping to write the materials quickly. On the other side, Zhao Guoqing was frowning coldly, not to mention writing. She felt that it didn't matter if she was evaluated as a " Five Virtuous Family " or not. She was only asked to write some materials, but she didn't care. She had let down Chairman Yang's good intentions and felt ashamed. Wang Hong had no choice but to go to the kitchen to cook.
Wang Hong had just started cutting vegetables when her stomach ache worsened. Sometimes, when the pain came, she couldn't help but bend her waist, but as long as she could endure it, she would try her best to endure it. As long as he endured the pain, he might be fine. Unexpectedly, the pain continued to intensify. Suddenly, a sharp pain made her unable to stand up and she fell to the ground.
When Wang Hong fell, the chopping board and knife also fell from the chopping board, making a sharp sound.
Zhao Guoqing heard the sound of something falling to the ground in the kitchen, especially the sound of knives colliding. He felt strange and couldn't help but go to the kitchen door to take a look. He saw Wang Hong lying on the ground with her body tightly hooked. Her hands were covering her stomach and her face was covered in sweat. He was shocked and couldn't care less about anything else. He quickly went over to support Wang Hong, but Wang Hong still pressed her hands on her sore spot and whispered," Ouch!" The voice was very suppressed. She only raised her voice when she saw her husband.
Zhao Guoqing's first thought was that his wife had a health problem and needed to be sent to the hospital immediately. He picked up Wang Hong and rushed out of the door. When he reached the road, he stopped a taxi."Quick, master, to the Central Hospital.”
When they arrived at the hospital, Zhao Guoqing carried Wang Hong and ran to the emergency department. There were two doctors on duty. He panted and shouted,"Hurry, doctor."
When the doctor saw the patient, he quickly asked him to put her on the examination bed. Wang Hong was in so much pain that she could not straighten her back. She moaned weakly. The doctor quickly came over to check on Wang Hong and asked Zhao Guoqing to register.
Zhao Guoqing went back to the emergency room. The doctor told him that Wang Hong had acute appendicitis and was about to undergo surgery. The doctor said that it was fortunate that he arrived in time and there was no puncture. Otherwise, it would have been troublesome. The doctor gave him a hospital bill and asked him to go through the procedures first. He had to pay two thousand yuan in advance and he didn't have to worry about this.
After Zhao Guoqing paid the money, he saw that the door of the operating theater was closed. He guessed that the surgery had begun. He stood in front of the operating room door and stared at the red light above the door that reflected the words " operating room ". His heart was filled with mixed feelings. Fortunately, he didn't hesitate and sent her to the hospital in time to avoid a puncture.
To be honest, he was still panicking about the ring. How could a man of indomitable spirit tolerate his wife doing such a thing? This was the greatest humiliation in the world!
However, when he found out that his wife had a health problem, he only thought of saving her. He forgot everything else. The moment he carried Wang Hong out of the house, his mind was filled with the thought of sending her to the hospital as soon as possible. Speed meant life. No matter how big the price was, it was a small matter.
Now, Wang Hong's surgery was not over yet, and his wife's safety was still in suspense. He kept praying silently for his wife. Hopefully, Wang Hong only had appendicitis and no other problems.
The surgery lasted for nearly two hours before the tightly shut door finally opened and he walked out. Before the doctor could speak, Zhao Guoqing grabbed the doctor's hand and asked anxiously,"Doctor, how is the patient now?”The doctor told him that the operation went smoothly and showed Zhao Guoqing the section of the sausage that was taken out. Zhao Guoqing took it and stared at the small intestine. He asked worriedly,"Doctor, is she really out of danger?”Seeing how anxious he was, the doctor patted him on the shoulder and smiled."You can rest assured."
Zhao Guoqing finally calmed down when he saw the doctor's certainty. He examined the sausage in his hand again and thought that he should show it to Wang Hong. Such a strong woman was in so much pain from this little thing. He told the doctor what he thought, and the doctor gave him the sausage.
In the middle of the night, Wang Hong woke up. She saw her husband sitting at the head of the bed and asked,"What about me?"
"It's acute appendicitis." "Don't move," Zhao Guoqing said softly,"I just had surgery."”
"Apicitis?" Wang Hong was surprised.
"Yes." Zhao Guoqing saw that his wife looked a little haggard, so he bent down and asked softly,"Do you feel good?"
"Alright." She stared at her husband and said excitedly. Yes, it was all thanks to her husband this time. "Are you tired?" she asked gratefully.
"I'm not tired." As he spoke, he saw that his wife's eyes were filled with tears. He quickly wiped her face with a tissue and said,"I'm not tired. Don't worry and take care of your body.”
She nodded repeatedly at her husband. He looked at her with concern. Her eyes were wide open, filled with excitement, happiness, sweetness, and an indescribable emotion. She had never felt so warm, sweet, and touching in her husband's relationship. They didn't say anything. Their beautiful feelings were only through their eyes. This was richer and more touching than words.
Zhao Guoqing showed Wang Hong the cecum. As Wang Hong looked at it, she grabbed her husband's hand with both hands. Clear tears finally filled the autumn pool and overflowed from the corners of her eyes. Zhao Guoqing quickly wiped his wife's face and said,""Don't be like this. The doctor said that although the surgery was very successful, the recovery after the surgery is also very important. You have to rest well now.”
Wang Hong nodded. Zhao Guoqing asked,"'Does your wound hurt?"
"A little." Wang Hong answered truthfully.
Zhao Guoqing saw that his wife was in pain and quickly walked to the door. "Doctor!"
At this moment, the doctor on duty came over and asked,"Is the patient awake?"”
"Yes." "Her wound hurts," Zhao Guoqing said.”
The doctor came over to examine Wang Hong and said to Guo Qing,"The wound is quite good. The pain is caused by the disappearance of the anesthetic. There's no problem, but to prevent infection, you have to take care of it carefully.”Zhao Guoqing answered the doctor one by one. The doctor gave him a few painkillers and asked him to feed them to the patient. Zhao Guoqing took the medicine, carefully propped Wang Hong's head up with his arm, and fed her the medicine.
Wang Hong fell asleep after taking the medicine. Zhao Guoqing looked at Wang Hong in a daze. She was sleeping peacefully with a sweet smile on her lips. Why was she smiling?
In his mind, he thought about Jiang Feng and Wang Ti. He felt that he had let his wife down. He felt that doing something for his wife would make him feel a little better and balanced.
The next day, Zhao Guoqing asked the doctor what Wang Hong was used to eating. The doctor told him that she could eat some liquid food after twelve hours. In the evening, Zhao Guoqing went out to buy a bowl of noodles and sat on Wang Hong's bed, feeding her mouthful by mouthful. Wang Hong was indeed hungry. She ate in big mouthfuls. After eating, Zhao Guoqing asked Wang Hong if she was feeling well. Wang Hong said yes. Zhao Guoqing looked at his watch and felt that it was not very late. He said,"Let's inform her parents to come and see tomorrow." Wang Hong really missed the two elders when she heard him say that, so she agreed.
After checking the ward in the morning, a group of nurses ran over and pointed at Zhao Guoqing in surprise. Zhao Guoqing didn't know why, so he quickly went up to ask the nurses. They didn't answer and smiled embarrassedly.
Zhao Guoqing was at a loss from their laughter." You, you…"
At this moment, a young nurse walked over and said shyly,"You're a big singer in our city."
"Handsome singer." One of the nurses added, making Zhao Guoqing feel embarrassed.
"I like to hear you sing 'Where the Peach Blossoms Bloom.'”
"'Father and Mother' sounds good too."
For a moment, the group of nurses started talking.
Zhao Guoqing saw how cute the nurses were, so he waved at them and said,"What are you guys standing there for? Come and sit in the ward.”
The young nurses saw that Zhao Guoqing was easy to get along with, so their initial wariness disappeared. They walked into Wang Hong's ward together.
At this moment, Wang Hong was about to urinate. Zhao Guoqing quickly took the urinal and prepared to help Wang Hong catch the urine. A nurse rushed forward and said to Zhao Guoqing,"How can you let a famous singer do such a thing? Let's do it."
"I should be the one doing this, so I won't trouble you."”
The nurses saw that Zhao Guoqing insisted on not letting them go, so they had no choice but to walk out of the ward.
Seeing that the nurses had left, Zhao Guoqing went to the bedside and gently removed the blanket. He stuffed it under Wang Hong's body. When Wang Hong was done, Zhao Guoqing carefully took it out of the blanket and threw it in the bathroom.
Wang Hong was very touched when she saw her husband pouring urine for her. She felt that her husband was so nice. Two crystal tears rolled down her face again.
This was the first time Wang Hong had been hospitalized after all these years of marriage. It was the first time her husband had taken care of her so carefully. It was the first time she had experienced his warmth. She felt so sweet and warm. She felt that she was the happiest woman in the world.
Usually, Zhao Guoqing rarely did housework, and he didn't know how to do it. Even if he did a little sometimes, Wang Hong was never satisfied, let alone caring about people and taking care of them. Wang Hong had always thought that her husband did not know how to love others. It seemed that she had wronged him.
In the afternoon, a female reporter from Xuancheng Daily came to interview Zhao Guoqing. Zhao Guoqing was shocked." I'm taking care of my family in the hospital. I'm not at work. What's there to be interviewed by reporters?"”
The female reporter said," You're a young professor with outstanding results. When you're taking care of your wife, you make tea, pour water, and take care of her feces. You're really worthy of being a model husband. This kind of moral character is worth promoting and advocating.”
" No, no," Zhao Guoqing firmly disagreed.
The next day, a nurse excitedly ran to Wang Hong's ward with Xuancheng Daily and said happily,""Professor Zhao, your deeds have been reported!”
Zhao Guoqing looked at the newspaper and was shocked. Why was it published? How did the reporters get these details?
The young nurse saw that Zhao Guoqing seemed unhappy and found it strange. It's a good thing that it's in the newspapers. What's wrong with him?
After Professor Wang received a call from his son-in-law, Zhao Guoqing, the old couple rushed to the hospital. Zhao Guoqing saw that the two elders were very anxious and excited, so he did not dare to leave the ward. After two days, Zhao Guoqing felt that his wife's condition had stabilized. She was ready to go to work and was taken care of by the two elders. He packed his things and was about to leave when he was stopped by President Yang of the Municipal Women's Federation. She walked into the ward with a bouquet of flowers. After asking Wang Hong about the situation at the bedside, she said to Zhao Guoqing,"Chief Zhao, I was very touched after reading the Xuancheng Daily. The comrades of the Women's Federation have a very high opinion of you and your family. After the city's 'Five Good Families' review, your family is not only designated as the city's 'Five Good Families,' but also prepared to be reported as the province's 'Five Good Families.'”
