Chapter 6
This hug came unexpectedly, and although Zong Ying only stretched out his right hand and gently grabbed it, Sheng Qingrang's back tensed up unnaturally in an instant.
Zong Ying didn't notice this change, and after a short speech, she let go of her hand and resumed her businesslike attitude: "I'll go to see the patient's condition, the medical package is in **?"
Sheng Qingrang came back to his senses and responded in a usually calm tone: "Come with me." ”
At this time, the sound of the piano downstairs also stopped abruptly, and the second sister said to Sheng Qinghui: "You have nothing to do!" What kind of piano does this Chenguang play? ”
Qinghui glanced at the fourth brother sitting on the sofa and said, "It was the fourth brother who asked me to play the piano to see if there was any progress." ”
The second sister immediately glared at her and said, "He's your teacher?" If you want to play, you will play? After that, she turned her head to look at the second floor, and saw Zong Ying and Sheng Qingrang enter the eldest brother's room together, and she immediately ran upstairs with a "snort".
When the second sister pushed the door and broke into the room, Zong Ying was examining the eldest brother's surgical wound.
She was just about to speak, when Zong Ying, who was covered by a mask and half of her face, suddenly turned around, her hands with latex gloves hanging in the air, her eyes were sharp, and her voice was muffled: "Patients need to be as sterile as possible, please leave here temporarily." ”
The second sister was suddenly dumbfounded in the face of her professional strength, and when she caught a glimpse of Sheng Qingrang next to her, she said: "Why can't I if he can be here, are you trying to do something?" ”
Zong Ying originally wanted Sheng Qingrang to make a move, but now she dispelled this idea, turned her head and said to Sheng Qingrang, who was wearing a mask, "Mr. Sheng, please go out too." ”
Sheng Qingrang met her gaze and immediately understood, so he silently put down the disposable mask and walked out of the door first.
The second sister has nothing to talk about now, so she can only go out with her.
The eldest brother did not recover well, most of the time he was in a coma, and the wound infection was difficult to control. Zong Ying patiently dealt with it, and vaguely heard the sound of dispute coming from downstairs again.
She took off her latex gloves and walked out the door, standing in the hallway, silently looking down.
Sheng Qinghe, who was sitting on the sofa, said: "So the eldest brother was attacked by an air raid in order to sign an agreement with the Germans? ”
He sneered, and glanced at Sheng Qingrang meaninglessly: "Just be a demon, I don't know if it's worth it if I put half my life into it for these things outside my body." ”
The second sister scolded him: "Are you still a little measured in your speech?!" ”
Discretion? Sheng Qinghe unscrupulously polished the match and lit a cigarette, stretched out his legs and said, "Let me tell you, don't look at the place where Hongkou is only concentrated now, I am afraid that it will be transferred to Yangshupu in a short time, and the Sheng family's machine factory will be destroyed sooner or later." As for whether it was blown up by the Japanese or by our own people, who can predict it? Even if it was really bombed by the Japanese, when the war situation was chaotic, who would admit that it was they who dropped the bomb? Do you want to claim compensation from the Japanese military department afterwards? Foolish dreams. ”
He obviously didn't care about this business, and he didn't approve of the other Sheng family's methods of stopping losses, so he only immersed himself in the smoke he ignited, and arbitrarily expressed his disdain.
The second sister was angry, and he said again: "Anyway, if you marry out, you can't get any wealth from the Sheng family, so why help here?" It's better to hurry up and ask your wretched husband to flee to Hong Kong with the children, after all, your husband's family is about to become a war zone, and he can save his life when the time comes, don't you say? ”
Sheng Qinghe! The second sister almost jumped up. At this time, Sheng Qinghui walked into the living room with a tray full of refreshments, trying to ease the atmosphere: "Let's have breakfast first." ”
Qinghui put the tray on the coffee table, looked up and saw Zong Ying wearing a mask and only showing a pair of eyes, and called her: "Miss Zong, come down and drink tea." ”
With Qinghui's invitation, all eyes shifted to the upper floor.
Qinghui secretly squeezed her eyes with Zong Ying, as if she had something else to tell her. The fourth child glanced up at her and curled his lips meaningfully. The second sister suppressed her anger and asked her, "Have you changed the medicine?" How's it going? Has the temperature dropped a bit? Sheng Qingrang turned around and looked up towards the stairs, his gaze as usual.
Zong Ying went downstairs and briefly talked about the situation of the eldest brother, and the expression of the second sister became more and more ugly.
Qinghui hurriedly invited her to sit down, Zong Ying took off her mask, silently picked up a cup of tea and drank it all, and heard Qinghui whisper in her ear: "Milk can be given to children, right?" ”
Fresh milk is not the best choice, but it can only be so for now. Zong Ying nodded, and Qinghui immediately got up and went out.
After the fourth child finished smoking, he picked up the snack plate and stuffed it into his mouth one by one, quickly finished eating and drank a cup of tea, and suddenly got up and walked in front of Zong Ying: "When the national disaster is at hand, has Miss Zong ever thought that instead of serving around one person here and complaining, it is better to go to the hospital in the war zone to save more lives?" ”
His invitation to Zong Ying was premeditated and certain, after all, a person who does not forget to help the weak when he is in trouble will never have low self-requirements at the moral level.
Zong Ying held the teacup steadily and raised her head to look at him.
This question is already related to self-interest and professional mission, and even involves the nobility of individual life, putting aside the fact that she does not belong to this era, even if she was born in Si, it is difficult to give an answer to this question for a while.
The atmosphere fell into a state of stagnation, and Sheng Qing asked her to reply on her behalf: "Miss Zong will leave Shanghai soon." ”
The fourth child replied, "Yes", and said: "Mingzhe protects himself, it's very good." He said and fastened the discipline button, and walked out of the Sheng family's living room without looking back.
Soon, the sound of a car starting outside the mansion was heard, and then, only the chirping of cicadas.
Zong Ying suddenly turned her head to look at the family photo hanging behind her**, Sheng Qingrang walked up to her, leaned over and asked, "You look tired, do you need to rest first?" ”
Zong Ying met his gaze, and the other party also looked tired, and she said, "Okay." ”
He patiently asked for her opinion: "Go back to the apartment or stay here?" ”
Zong Ying didn't want to run anymore, she said, "Here." ”
Sheng Qingrang sent her upstairs, and when the door was closed, she said, "Mr. Sheng, you should also pay attention to rest." ”
I still have some things to do. Faced with the sudden concern, Sheng Qingrang stopped a little, and then said, "Then I'll go first, and I'll pick you up in the evening." ”
Zong Ying didn't say anything, he emphasized: "I will definitely come." ”
Zong Ying closed the door and fell asleep. She has long been accustomed to the life of shift work, and it is not difficult to fall asleep at this time. However, I sleep during the day and dream a lot. She dreams of an eerie birthday party, dreams of a failed operation, and wakes up sweaty and her heart rate is overloaded. She frowned in pain, pressed her heart, lowered her head and tried to breathe, only to realize that it was dark. When I got out of bed and opened the window facing north, the wind outside had stopped, and the typhoon seemed to have really evacuated, and the heat was about to return.
The child's cry suddenly sounded in the corridor on the second floor, followed by the voice of the second sister: "Why do you want to bring this kind of tattered child of unknown origin to the house?!" Didn't Dr. Zong bring it in the morning? Are you still working together to hide from me? ”
What is called unknown origin! Qinghui held the baby in one hand and the child behind her with the other, and her young face was tensely angry, "You are class discrimination!" ”
Sheng Qinghui! If you dare to bring a stranger to your house today, he will have the audacity to empty your jewelry box tomorrow! Try it if you don't believe it! The second sister was accustomed to the wind and waves, "Hurry up and send it out!" ”
The little boy was scolded by her and shrank back, holding back tears and begging for mercy: "I will, I will go, please, please save my brother ......."”
Qinghui's heart was so soft, she looked down at the baby in her arms, looked up and continued to confront the second sister: "This child is in very poor health, maybe he won't survive if he is sent out!" ”
The second sister is still hard-hearted and uncompromising: "You are a young lady who eats at home and uses the family, you don't know the sinister world, you only know that you are innocent and eaten!" ”

As soon as she finished speaking, the staff below shouted: "Second Miss, my uncle has arrived!" ”
The second sister glared at Qing Hui, pointed at her and ordered, "Is the Concession Welfare Institute built for nothing?" I'll give you three days. She went downstairs immediately after speaking, Qinghui led the child to stand in the corridor, angry and angry, and she didn't even notice that Zong Ying opened the door.
When her anger subsided a little, Zong Ying said to her: "I'm really sorry. ”
When Qing Hui heard this, she quickly changed the topic: "Miss Zong, hurry up and take a look, is his current situation very dangerous?" ”
Zong Ying stepped forward to check carefully, and Qinghui had been paying attention to the changes in her expression, but she was the same from beginning to end.
She only said, "It's a little weak. ”
Qinghui frowned: "Then what should I do?" ”
Zong Ying didn't say anything, and when she looked up, she saw Sheng Qingrang who had just gone upstairs.
It was dark outside, it was evening, and he came on time this time.
Zong Ying said to Qinghui: "You take them to rest first, and I'll come to you later." After that, he asked Sheng Qing to let him into the house and took the initiative to open the door.
Qinghui led one big and one small upstairs, Zong Ying entered the room and sat on the sofa, and asked Sheng Qingrang to sit on the opposite side.
Sheng Qingrang had come to pick her up and take her back to the apartment, but she said, "I need to stay here for one night." After a pause, he said, "I promise not to go out, wait for you to come back." ”
Big brother's condition is very precarious, and tonight is critical; The baby upstairs is not properly left to be taken care of by a novice like Qinghui, and it needs to be taken care of. Although she didn't state a reason, Sheng Qingrang also guessed.
He had no reason to refuse her offer, and replied, "Well, then, I'll pick you up tomorrow." ”
Zong Ying nodded, and said, "I still need to ask you to do something." ”
Please speak. Zong Ying stretched out his hand to him, "Give me pen and paper." ”
Sheng Qingrang took out the notebook and pen in the briefcase, unscrewed the cap of the pen and handed it to her.
Zong Ying bowed her head and knelt on the round coffee table, and quickly wrote out the list. The names of newborn formula, feeding bottles, and two medicines ......At the end, a change of clothes was added.
In the hospital near the apartment, there is a shop that is open until 12 p.m., and there is a 24-hour pharmacy next to it, where you can buy everything in front of you. ”
She said as she reached for her wallet, wanting to give him some cash, but there was only some change left.
She simply pulled out a bank card, "You can use it at the checkout." ”
Sheng Qingrang saw her swiping her card at the Pujiang Hotel, and he said, "I know." ”
Then you should also know the password. Zong Ying pushed the card over.
Why that string of numbers? ”
I'll talk about it later when I have a chance. ”
Zong Ying turned off the switch that triggered the memory in time, looked up and asked, "In the past few days when I'm away, is there any trouble over there?" ”
I met Miss Xue in the apartment. ”
Zong Ying narrowed her eyes, but she was not surprised: "Did she keep my key?" ”
Yes. "Did you eat what she gave? ”
Drank a glass of water. ”
Zong Ying frowned: "Did she take the cup away?" ”
Well? Sheng Qing suddenly remembered a paper bag that Xue Xuanqing took away when he left, "Is there anything wrong with this?" ”
He doesn't know how to collect fingerprints, he doesn't know how to do DNA testing, and it's normal to be defenseless.
Zong Ying didn't say anything for a long time, and finally said, "It's nothing, it's not important." ”
After Zong Ying finished speaking, she was about to get up and go to see the situation of her eldest brother, but at this time, Sheng Qingrang said, "There is one more thing." ”
She sat back down on the couch, "You speak." ”
A lawyer surnamed Zhang called** and said that he wanted to change the meeting scheduled for Wednesday to Saturday, and hoped that you would give him an answer. ”
Zong Ying's eyes suddenly turned cold, and the hand resting on the arm of the sofa suddenly retracted, and asked after a while, "What else did he tell you?" ”
Sheng Qingrang hesitated again and again but said truthfully: "He said that you may need to make a will." ”
Sheng Qingrang's Zong Ying in his eyes was simple and confused. She is actionable, direct, calculating, and has an almost innocent attachment, but he doesn't know much about her life, even though he has seen many of her personal belongings up close.
He knew what she was studying, and he knew a little about her interest, but he couldn't understand why the girl in the frame didn't smile when she took pictures after a certain point in time, and he couldn't understand why she made a will at this age.
Probably because he hid too much ** in his eyes, Zong Ying looked up at him for a while and answered the question he couldn't say——
Why Make a Will?
"Be prepared," she said. ”
The tone is calm, but there is an unshakable firmness. From this point of view, she is not a reckless rough person, she has her own thoughts and opinions, and she is even quite thoughtful.
Zong Ying opened her mobile phone after speaking, and the screen showed only 15 percent of the battery, without any signal, and the time was 19 o'clock on August 16.
There are still three hours, please go back to the apartment as soon as possible, so it is safer. She turned off her phone and then said, "The lock on the apartment has been changed, and I have left a spare key in the entryway cabinet that you can access." ”
