Chapter 372: The old man's wish
Before I came back, I had already hinted in my heart that I had accepted this fact countless times, but when my mother said this to me in person, I realized that I could not accept the fact.
What you think and what you see with your own eyes are always two different concepts.
"Why...they are they curing! Aren't they the ones who can save the world? Why not?"
I shouted out, my voice a little hoarse.
It was also at this moment that gravity defeated my tear glands.
"Who can be cured but not?"
My mother's voice became extremely dull and extremely desperate. She said, "Let's talk to her later... Your grandma has been talking about you before, and this time she should have no regrets when she sees you and Xiaoxue."
"Mom..." I asked her like a helpless child in a crying voice, "Is there really no way?"
The mother shook her head without saying anything, and two lines of clear tears were hung on her cheeks and sobbed slightly.
I really wanted to comfort me, but when I got to my mouth, I couldn't say anything, so I could only watch this way. Instead, Tong Xue took the initiative to walk to my mother and hugged her gently.
"Auntie, don't be too sad, everything will pass."
Women are emotional, especially over the years, my parents have long regarded Tong Xue as their daughter in their hearts. On the contrary, Tong Xue is the same. She did what a child should do on my behalf.
The two hugged each other, one cried and the other comforted. Once upon a time, they were the two most important women in my life; now, she, who embraced her mother, has changed her candidates.
Is all this affair with people or the bitter fruit I buried myself?
I can't find an answer...
At this moment, I should go up and hug them and cry with them. But I am a man and should be strong enough, even if I pretend to be strong.
Taking a deep breath, I wiped the wet corners of my eyes and said, "Mom, you go out with Tong Xue first to eat something. I'll take care of my grandma for your class."
Tong Xue turned her head and looked at me. Seeing that I was tying to her, she nodded and said to my mother: "Auntie, Chen Mo is right. You should take a break. Uncle and the others should come later. You can let him take care of you."
Hearing the sound, my mother looked at us for a moment, nodded and agreed, "Xiao Mo, remember to call if you have anything."
"Yeah, don't worry."
"You must keep an eye on it. Call the doctor as soon as possible if there is any problem!" My mother reminded me worriedly.
"I know."
My mother nodded, and Tong Xue held her hands and left here step by step.
As a son, I really couldn't bear to see her in such pain, so I suggested that Tong Xue take her out to eat something. During this period, she must have suffered a lot. Looking at her leaving behind, tears flowed out again.
There was no one around me, and I could finally cry with justice.
Squatting at the door of the ward, I buried my head, enduring self-blame and pain repeatedly in my heart... After most of the time of cigarettes, I stood up from the ground.
He wiped his face and pushed open the door of the ward.
......
Grandma was lying on the hospital bed, very peaceful.
If it weren't for the tube stuck in my body, I would think she was still the tough old man. When I walked closer, her eyes moved with me.
She can't speak.
But her expression was expressive enough.
The kindness that looks at me has never changed.
This scene made my eyes feel more and more bitter. I forced myself to open my mouth and said to her, "My grandma... promise me, can you survive... You haven't seen me get married yet, and you haven't seen me have children yet...
When you have a great grandson in the future, you will take care of him like you did when you were a child. Tell him stories and tell him what happened when you were a child... Tell him how the Chinese beat the Japanese away, and tell him how our country survived the most difficult years?"
Grandma raised her hand with some difficulty, opened her mouth, and what she wanted to say turned into a babbling.
Seeing this, I hurriedly held her hand.
The dry palms were almost without temperature... "Don't be excited, I'm here, Xiao Mo is here."
"I have been in Beijing for a good few years. I was able to see you during the Spring Festival this year, but... I suddenly had something and I had to go back early. Now I have calculated the future and can earn tens of thousands of yuan a month!
Please get better quickly. I will pay to renovate the yard at home, and then you plant grapes. When it’s summer, you will pick and eat it for me when I go."
Grandma's fingers moved and passed through my palm. I thought she should be happy after hearing my words, right? But she couldn't praise me.
Once upon a time, it was obviously not like this!
Scenes from childhood were staged in front of me like marquee lanterns.
"Xiao Mo, you are a boy, you should be strong, you can't marry a wife when you cry."
"Xiao Mo, grow up quickly. Grandma is waiting to see you go to college and learn knowledge and make achievements!"
"My good grandson, go to bed quickly. Grandma tells you the story of our country's war of resistance..."
“…”
There is no train in the world that returns to the past. Time will only push people forward. Whether you are willing or not, you have to accept separation from life and death. But it comes too fast and arrives quietly before I can prepare.
I didn't want my grandma to see my smoother eyes. She turned her head and sucked deep in the air with the smell of disinfectant, forcing myself to hide all my sadness in my heart.
When I looked at my grandma again, I could control myself to smile.
Just smiled and looked at her, looking at her.
Gradually, her originally a little cloudy eyes became much brighter.
She held my hand hard and pointed the other hand at the door.
I turned around and realized that Tong Xue and my mother had already returned, and the direction my grandma pointed was Tong Xue.
Seeing this, my mother hurriedly told Tong Xue to come to the bedside.
Every time she took a step forward, the joy in grandma's eyes would be added, until she walked to the edge of the hospital bed and held her other hand... grandma turned her body with great difficulty and closed her hands in front of her with difficulty.
Does she want us to hold hands?
Tong Xue and I looked at each other and understood what each other meant. We held grandma's hand, and then under her gaze, we held our hands together.
Grandma smiled, and she was a little excited, probably expressing her joy and blessings. In her eyes, we are her most beloved little grandchildren and granddaughter-in-law.
