This time they stayed in two small hotels in the county town, which were small and barely able to accommodate so many people.
Two people in one room, no conditions for a single room. The doctor who was in the same room with Tao Xiaodong originally was a familiar doctor, but the little doctor said that he was snoring, fearing that it would affect Mr. Tao's sleep, so he had to change the room.
This person has a special status, not only a sponsor but also "Director Tang's friend". This status is so well known that no one wants to come and live with him.
Tao Xiaodong laughed: "If I get out of the car like this again, how about pushing me out?"
It stands to reason that Tao Xiaodong and Director Chen are in the same room. They are of the same age and their identity is acceptable. If both of them are straight men, the pairing is very reasonable, but neither of them is the first one in Tao Xiaodong's place. The director who was mentioned by the family doctor specially before should be avoided.
There was also a trainee doctor who didn't talk much. He was very young. When others were chatting, he occasionally laughed along with him, but generally he didn't take the initiative to say anything. At this moment, several doctors in the car were pushing around, and he said, "Then I will share a room with President Tao."
"Okay, we Xiaolin don't snoring, this is Director Tang's brother and sister, from the same family." The previous doctor said with a smile.
Tao Xiaodong glanced back at the tall and thin young doctor in the back row. When he first got into the car, he introduced that he was also a student of Professor Xu. He seemed to be called Linhe, and Tang Suoyan usually took good care of him.
He smiled at Tao Xiaodong, put away the earphones and slowly rolled the cord.
In fact, for Tao Xiaodong, it makes no difference to whoever lives in a room. Except for Director Chen, any doctor or volunteer will do. They are busy during the day and have a place to sleep at night.
Linhe spoke very little, and the two of them basically didn't have any extra conversations in the room, and couldn't say a few words. Generally, Tao Xiaodong would sit on the roof of the small building for a while at night, make phone calls with Tang Suoyan and Tao Huainan respectively, and almost fell asleep when he got down to Linhe.
Tao Xiaodong was wearing headphones, with his hands in his pockets, sitting on the concrete platform on the roof, calling Tang Suoyan.
Tang Suoyan asked him if he was tired.
Tao Xiaodong said that he was not tired.
"I heard that there are many people there." Tang Suoyan chatted with him on the phone with a little smile, "I also heard that no one lives with you."
"Ah, they squeezed me out." Tao Xiaodong also laughed, the wind at night was a little comfortable and cool, and the spring in the south was gentle even at night.
"Then why don't you know to sue? Don't you know that there is someone here who can call the shots for you?" Tang Suoyan asked him.
"I'll tell you when I go back." Tao Xiaodong especially liked to hear Tang Suoyan chatting with him on the phone so quietly and liked his voice.
"I thought there would be fewer people here, but I didn't expect there to be more than the previous two years." Tao Xiaodong frowned at the crowded patients during the day and said, "The conditions here shouldn't be so bad."
"The popularization of medical insurance is not good, and the publicity of primary medical care is not enough." Tang Suoyan said.
Tao Xiaodong told him a few patients during the day, and Tang Suoyan said with a little regret, "It's been too long and I can't recover."
"It's a common disease, and it's like this." Tao Xiaodong is a little angry every time he sees this, in addition to regret, he doesn't pay medical insurance, and he doesn't get cured, so he drags it out. What kind of psychology is this
Tang Suoyan watched a lot, and he could comfort him calmly: "It's much better than before, but it still takes some time."
Tao Xiaodong sat there and sighed, and Tang Suoyan chatted with him for a while.
The phone was on the ground and the hands-free was turned on. Tang Suoyan held the scissors and cut them one by one. After cutting, the water needs to be changed again. When Tao Xiaodong is at home, he fiddles with the flowers on his balcony every day, which he cherishes very much.
When Tao Xiaodong was not at home, Tang Suoyan took care of him.
Tao Xiaodong has a big book in his bag. Sometimes he can help with nothing, so he just finds a place to sit and draw, without moving, eating or drinking, and drawing page after page.
I drew most of the book in a few days. Inspiration is so great that neither hand nor pen can stop.
When Lin He came back from outside, Tao Xiaodong had already finished taking a shower, sitting on the bed still painting, Lin He called "Brother Tao".
"You're back?" Tao Xiaodong looked up at him, his hands didn't stop, he smiled and then lowered his head again.
Lin He took off his coat and put it on the back of the chair. He replied, "Yeah," and asked, "Have you eaten Brother Tao?"
Tao Xiaodong said he had eaten.
Lin He nodded, took the clothes and went in to take a shower, and by the way, washed the clothes directly on his body. The conversation between the two of them today should have been half completed, and the remaining half is to wait for Lin He to finish packing up and say, "Brother Tao, I'll go to bed first."
Tall and handsome boys are not handsome at first glance. They have single eyelids, but they are attractive. It is too introverted. How can I communicate with patients when I sit in an outpatient clinic.
When he came back, Tao Xiaodong stopped painting after painting, which affected people's rest. He put away his things, and Linhe's mobile phone rang on the opposite bed, and the vibration never stopped.
After Lin He came out of the shower after a while, Tao Xiaodong said to him, "The phone rang."
Lin He glanced at it, and just at this moment it rang again, he immediately answered, and asked warmly, "What's wrong?"
Tao Xiaodong raised his eyebrows, he hadn't heard him speak in such a tone for so many days.
Not knowing what to say on the phone, he walked out and replied, "Nothing, I just took a shower."
Lin He went out to make a phone call, Tao Xiaodong thought about the contrast between his tone just now and usual, and smiled.
It may be raining outside, the room is a little stuffy, and there is no air coming in after opening the window.
Tao Xiaodong glanced at the time. At half past eleven, Lin He was sleeping peacefully on the opposite bed. He didn't sleep well, so he still took his coat and went to the roof.
There are a few small lights on the roof, as well as the lights on the plaque below, which stay on all night. Mosquitoes circled and flew under the lamp, messy and lonely.
The rain was still suffocating in the end, and it began to rain sporadically when it was almost dawn.
Tao Xiaodong looked up and stood for a while.
It rained for three days and missed the plane by a day.
In the end, nothing happened that day. Some of the doctors went to the hospital, and some of them stayed in their rooms.
Lin He and Tao Xiaodong didn't go out. The two looked at the rain outside and chatted for a while. Lin He asked, "Can I have a cigarette, Brother Tao?"
Of course Tao Xiaodong doesn't care about this. Lin He lit a cigarette, opened the window, and stood by the window to smoke. Tao Xiaodong asked him for one.
Both of them stood at the window smoking, and Lin He said, "I thought you didn't smoke."
"I don't smoke much." Tao Xiaodong smiled, "I'm not addicted to smoking."
Lighting a cigarette between men is similar to drinking a glass of wine. Standing together and smoking a cigarette together seems to be slightly cooked, and the sense of vitality can be slightly thinner.
"Brother Tao." Lin He called him.
Tao Xiaodong looked at him.
Lin He asked, "Why did you do this? I invested so much money for so many people I didn't know."
When he asked, he looked out the window, and every drop of rain smashed so hard that it fell to the ground and fell into an embarrassed state. Tao Xiaodong said, "I don't know either."
Lin He looked at him, Tao Xiaodong smiled and thought for a while: "I feel bad for investing money, and sometimes I regret it if I invest too much. But this kind of thing is also addictive, there is one time and the next time."
"I also know someone who is similar to you." Lin He took another breath, "I've already lived a miserable life, and I always want to be a Bodhisattva."
When I said this, I was obviously thinking of another person, and I felt it was inappropriate when I said it, and said, "I'm not talking about you, Brother Tao."
Tao Xiaodong smiled and said, "Me too."
Lin He might be a little embarrassed and didn't speak again.
Tao Xiaodong was also silent for a while, not knowing what he was thinking about. After smoking a cigarette, Tao Xiaodong said, "This may be my last vote. Everyone has their own lives. I can't help that much."
Lin He looked at him again, Tao Xiaodong said, "I hope everyone can live easily."
Everyone's life is easy, no matter what they say or listen to, it's like an idiot's dream.
The grandfather and grandson came to the hospital the day before. The seventy-year-old grandfather led the eleven-year-old grandson. The grandfather was half blind and his eyesight deteriorated. The two held hands tightly, walking over and leaving . The old man's son died in the mudslide. For five years, only the grandfather and grandson guarded the old house. One grew up slowly, and the other grew old quickly.
The old man's eyes can't be cured, and the grandson should go to the city to study in junior high school soon, but in such a family situation, the tuition fee cannot be paid out, so how can he go out to study if he takes it out.
Tao Xiaodong took two stacks of cash from the ATM in the hospital and stuffed it into the old man's pocket. The old man waved his hand again and again, about to take it out for him, Tao Xiaodong pressed his hand, the old man wiped his eyes, and Tao Xiaodong couldn't understand what he said in the dialect.
Two stacks of cash seemed to solve a lot of problems for these two people, but it seemed like it couldn't solve anything. But Tao Xiaodong couldn't help any more, and neither could he.
Life is difficult for everyone, and everyone suffers in their own way.
When he went back, Tang Suoyan went to the airport to pick him up and brought a bunch of flowers.
It was a day later than expected due to rain. All the colleagues who came back together were Tang Suoyan's colleagues. Tang Suoyan didn't want to take anyone with him, so he picked up Tao Xiaodong and left.
Tao Xiaodong said with a smile, "It's so embarrassing to see your car."
"Then I can only hope that they can't see it." Tang Suoyan also smiled, "I can't bring so many of them, I can pick the most important ones."
Tao Xiaodong is holding a flower in his hand, he likes such a warm orange-red so much.
After going out for a week, Tao Xiaodong lost a lot of weight.
In the evening, Tao Xiaodong was packing his clothes, and he should wash them. Tang Suoyan looked at him from behind.
His hair is a little long and it's time to cut it again.
The freshly washed hair was still a little damp, Tang Suoyan reached out and brushed it in his hair. Tao Xiaodong sat on the ground and looked up at him, Tang Suoyan smiled at him, Tao Xiaodong leaned back on his lap.
Tang Suoyan asked him, "Do you need me to help you clean up?"
Tao Xiaodong said, "Then you help me wash."
Tang Suoyan: "Okay."
He sat next to Tao Xiaodong, the two sat next to each other, Tao Xiaodong simply did not clean up, and leaned on Tang Suoyan's back, Tang Suoyan took a piece of clothing and he said whether to wash it or not.
Later, Tao Xiaodong turned around and hugged Tang Suoyan, putting his face on him.
Tang Suoyan turned his head and asked him softly, "What's wrong, Xiaodong?"
Tao Xiaodong didn't say anything, just stuck there silently, with his eyes on Tang Suoyan's shoulders.
Tang Suoyan reached back and touched his hair, the damp hair rubbed against Tang Suoyan's neck, making it a little cool.
"Brother Yan." Tao Xiaodong called him.
Tang Suoyan responded, "It's there."
Tao Xiaodong's voice contained very low emotions and a dependence that he didn't realize, and said softly: "...I feel uncomfortable."
Tang Suoyan scratched his head gently with his fingertips: "what's the matter with you?"
Tao Xiaodong was bored there and said slowly, "I don't want to talk about it yet."
Tang Suoyan said "um" and patted him, calm and stable.
