When they arrived in Beijing, Han Debao arranged Hao Mei and her daughter to stay in a small hotel, and went to find Wang Xiaosong. It was Han Debao's first trip to Beijing, and it took a lot of trouble just to find Wang Xiaosong's residence; when he arrived at Wang Xiaosong's house, he found out that Wang Xiaosong had just left the country a few days ago. Wang Xiaosong's wife often heard Xiaosong talking about friends in the Corps, so she was no stranger to Han Debao's name, and she knew more about Hao Mei from Wang Xiaosong's torn long letter.But after all, she is a well-educated and righteous person. She took the initiative to write a letter to her uncle who worked in the Ministry of Health and handed it to Han Debao, asking her uncle to help contact Yunyun's hospitalization and treatment.

Han Debao returned to the small hotel, Yunyun fell asleep on the bed, and Hao Mei was beside her to cool Yunyun. Han Debao said: "If everything goes well, perhaps Yunyun will be able to live in the upper hospital tomorrow afternoon." Hao Mei took out a small book, wrote some words, and handed it to him. It said: "Debao, you have worked so hard. Yunyun owes you good uncles." Han Debao walked to the window, lit a cigarette, deliberately avoided Hao Mei's sight, looked out the window and said, "Hao Mei, listen to me. I know how important Yunyun is to you, and how much you love her. But, I can no longer hide it from you, I must tell you the truth——Yunyun has bone cancer, and it has spread. The cancer hospital we want to send Yunyun to. There is only one percent chance of Yunyun being saved Second, Zhenqing doesn't have the courage to tell you, so let me tell you on the train. But on the train, I can't muster the courage..."

He heard a noise, turned around and saw that Hao Mei had fainted on the ground. Han Debao hugged her upper body and shouted: "Hao Mei, Hao Mei!" In the next few days, Han Debao got very busy and went to the Ministry of Health to find someone, but Xiao Song's wife's uncle happened to be on a business trip.It didn't matter, it was too difficult to be hospitalized. Fortunately, he brought this address book to help. He called his comrades in Beijing one by one, and invited seven or eight comrades to a restaurant for dinner. After talking about his divorce, he cut straight to the point, talked about his intention to come to Beijing, and asked all his friends for help.

Debao's words were very straightforward. He said: "If you do your best, I will invite you to this meal; if you are at a loss, please explain, and I will not invite this meal. What I am reluctant to bear is not just money. , I still have time, and I have to make time to beg others." The comrades-in-arms were a little displeased at first, but they soon understood Debao's mood. They drank the wine before waiting for the food to be served, and looked for "ways" one after another.As a result, Han Debao paid for a table of vegetables that no one touched or even saw. Thanks to the help of Debao's comrade-in-arms, Yunyun was admitted to the hospital soon.

One day, Wu Zhenqing was sweeping the streets when he heard someone calling him: "Xiao Wu, call! Long distance from Beijing!" Wu Zhenqing was taken aback for a moment, then abandoned his broom and ran to answer the phone. On the phone, Han Debao said, "Zhenqing, Yunyun went yesterday morning..." Wu Zhenqing asked, "Then...how is Hao Mei?" Han Debao said: "She... managed to withstand this blow... Before Yunyun left, she suddenly seemed very rational, saying that she wanted to meet her father and ask her father why he abandoned her and her mother. It didn't sound like what a child would think before dying. I had no choice but to call a soldier from the Corps, and wanted him to pretend to be his father and give Yunyun a little comfort before he died... But when he came, Yunyun I have already closed my eyes... I will accompany Hao Mei back to Harbin tomorrow. What I mean is, no one should pick up the station, I will send Hao Mei home directly, lest she cry again when she sees you..."

A few days later, Han Debao and Hao Mei came back, and they walked together to the street where Hao Mei lived.Han Debao handed Yunyun's urn wrapped in cloth to Hao Mei, and said, "I won't take you home. You rest for a few days, Zhenqing and I will come to see you when we are free." Hao Mei nodded sadly, turned around and walked slowly, holding the urn. When she returned home, she saw that the four walls had been painted and the furniture was placed more neatly. On the wall, there was an enlarged group photo of Hao Mei and Yunyun in the frame. On the next door to Pan's house, there is an extra door, without a door or a frame, with a curtain hanging down. When the curtain is lifted, Lao Pan comes out and stands in front of Hao Mei.

The two looked at each other silently. That night, they slept separately through a door curtain. Very late, Hao Mei appeared in Lao Pan's room. She got into Lao Pan's bed, with her back facing him, biting the corner of the quilt, and crying in restraint.Lao Pan turned around and pulled her body towards him; in the darkness, Lao Pan embraced her with his thick arms, caressed her, and kissed her... Lao Pan said: "Don't cry, don't cry, let us quietly recall the cuteness of Yunyun. Maybe she is looking at us somewhere, and she would like me to miss her with you... From now on, If we have a child, whether it's a boy or a girl, we'll name it Yunyun..."
