"My daughter and grandchildren are in the hospital. I have to go to the capital immediately to see them. Police officer, please help. Please help me think of a solution."
The police officers understood that Qiao Dongliang's situation was unique. However, rules were rules and they couldn't break them."Sir, don't worry. Sit down and have a glass of water. You can't be anxious when encountering such a matter. There would always be a solution. If you don't mind forking out money, maybe you can apply for an urgent identity card?" However, no matter how urgent it was, the identity card couldn't be issued tomorrow if the request was submitted today."We will explain all the situations to you clearly. See if you can wait for another week or so?"
He just wanted to visit his daughter and grandchildren.. However, he lost his identity card. For some things, the more coincidental it was for all of them to happen together, the more uneasy he felt. He kept feeling that this wasn't a good sign."Money isn't an issue. However, would the fastest be one week? Is there any other way? How about using a temporary identity card first?"
"Sure. See if this works. Don't apply for an urgent identity card first. Go by the normal procedures and collect it after a month. As for you, go and think of a way to issue a certificate and bring it over to us. By then, we will do a temporary identity card for you. We will try to get this out within three days so that you can go to the capital and visit your daughter and grandchildren. How does that sound?"
The law took into account human sympathy. Qiao Dongliang's situation was more unique. His daughter and grandchildren were in the hospital. Upon hearing this matter, they knew that this was crucial. If they didn't settle this quickly, they would feel apologetic as well.
They could tell that this elder before them was so anxious that he was about to cry as he had lost his identity card and had no means to go to the capital to visit his daughter and grandchildren who were hospitalized. Who didn't have elders and children in their family? Everyone could understand this type of worry and fear.
"Thank you. Thank you so much." Three days. He could still wait for three days.
After knowing what kind of procedure this entailed, Qiao Dongliang retrieved the household register of family members first when he returned home. After that, he went out to the streets and prepared a few certificates. That afternoon, he returned to that police station again. The police still had an impression of Qiao Dongliang as they had just seen him earlier in the day. Seeing that Qiao Dongliang's documents were complete and had no issues, everyone used the fastest speed to help Qiao Dongliang process a temporary identity card. They told him that three days later, he could retrieve this temporary identity card and go to the capital to visit his daughter and grandchildren.
For a temporary identity card, Qiao Dongliang had worked for the entire day. Qiao Dongliang knew that this was already efficient. No matter what, at least, he didn't make a wasted trip today. Three days later, he could similarly take a train to the capital.
Qiao Zijin and Ding Jiayi, who thought that this matter was settled, didn't think that there would be such a fiery side to Qiao Dongliang when it came to doing things. He had finished making a temporary identity card and could go to the capital again in three days.
Since Qiao Dongliang was going to the capital himself, how would he be willing to let Qiao Zijin go to the capital to take care of Qiao Nan and the children on behalf of him?
"Dad, you have been out the whole day. You must be tired, right?" Qiao Zijin was half-angered to death in her heart. However, she continued to care about Qiao Dongliang on the surface."Actually, this matter doesn't have to be so complicated. Just wait for a month. If you're really worried about Nan Nan, I can help you go to the capital first to take a look at Nan Nan's situation. Look at you. You've been running around the whole day today. Mom and I feel heartache looking at you. If Nan Nan knows about this, she would definitely have the same thoughts as us."
He was already so old. Had he forgotten that just a few months ago, he had been discharged from the hospital? How was he so energetic? Qiao Zijin was depressed. Ever since her father was discharged from the hospital, she had bought too many nutritional items and raised him well. If her father hadn't recuperated well from that fracture back then, would he have been able to run around so much outside?
She raised her father well, but he despised her and insisted on going to the capital to visit Qiao Nan. That was really... enough.
"There's no need to." Qiao Dongliang smiled."If I hadn't moved so much, I wouldn't have known that I'm actually not too old." That was right as well. He was about to become someone with three grandchildren. If he was really old, he wouldn't be able to carry any one of the three grandchildren.
He felt regretful that he didn't manage to carry Chen Feng when he was young. Qiao Dongliang wanted to make up for his previous regrets with Qiao Nan's children. Although he was no longer young, his body was still in good shape. It was nothing to carry a baby or coax a child.
"Indeed, I'm tired from running around today. I'll go to bed first. The both of you can continue chatting." After going to the capital, he wouldn't have so much leisure time. In order for him to cope well after arriving in the capital, he had to eat, drink, and sleep well in the next three days so that he would have enough energy and strength.
At this time, Qiao Dongliang already knew that based on Qiao Nan's situation, where she was carrying multiple children, it was very difficult for her to go through a ten-month pregnancy period. In other words, within a few days after arriving in the capital, he might have the chance to meet his grandchildren.
Of course, it was also because of this that Qiao Dongliang was so anxious and wanted to make a trip to the capital personally. Waiting for another three days was his limit. Qiao Dongliang couldn't wait for a month or a week.
After saying this, Qiao Dongliang returned to his room. It was only seven in the evening, but he was already in deep sleep. Qiao Zijin and Ding Jiayi felt depressed.
Ding Jiayi patted Qiao Zijin's hand. Both of them continued chatting after going to Qiao Zijin's room."There's no need to be so nervous. Your dad must be sleeping soundly now. There's no need to seal the cracks in the door. We can just talk about the sensitive topics briefly. If your dad suddenly wakes up from his sleep to go to the toilet, he would definitely argue with us if he sees this situation."
"Yes." Qiao Zijin thought so as well."Mom, Dad really cherishes Qiao Nan and the three children in her stomach. When I was giving birth to Fengfeng in the past, was he that anxious over me and Fengfeng?" No matter how much she didn't care about whom Qiao Dongliang was more biased in his fatherly love to, Qiao Zijin couldn't help but feel jealous today.
In order to go to the capital to see Qiao Nan, Qiao Zijin felt that her father had already fought with his life. They were both her father's daughters. There was such a huge difference in the way he treated her compared to Qiao Nan. She couldn't accept it. When she gave birth to Chen Feng, her father wasn't that nervous at all. He also didn't insist on visiting her.
