191. Farce
When Ai Xin woke up, Ai Jinling and Fang Jun were no longer around, and they didn't see those guests, they were lying on the sofa in a room that looked like a lounge, and Fang Jun's suit was still covered on their bodies.
Thinking about it, it was because he was overly sad, he cried too much and fainted directly, and was sent in by Fang Jun.
Ai Xin rubbed the back of her head, felt a little pain in her brain, and wanted to find a glass of water to drink, but this room was empty, not even a water dispenser, a cabinet or anything, except for a sofa that was a window and a door.
"Hiss......"
Ai Xin gasped, still very uncomfortable, so she got up from the sofa, ready to open the door and go out to find Fang Jun.
"Do you still want face?!"
His hand stopped on the doorknob, and before he could unscrew the lock, Ai Xin heard a familiar voice outside the door.
Probably just dropped his head and didn't slow down yet, although he knew that the voice was familiar, Ai Xin didn't think for a while who it was.
"Okay, what's the matter to go home and talk about, do you have to make trouble here?"
Another familiar male voice sounded, and Ai Xin immediately reacted, this was Fang Jun. The woman who spoke just now...... It's my mother.
Ai Xin lowered her head, secretly thinking that it was funny, she couldn't even hear Ai Jinling's voice, probably it was really a weak family affection.
"I'm making trouble?"
Ai Jinling's sneer came from outside the door, which frightened Ai Xin for a while, she hesitated, feeling that it was better not to open the door and go out to hit the muzzle of the gun at this time.
Although she was scared, she also cared about what her parents were arguing about. Although Ai Jinling's attitude has always been domineering on weekdays, she doesn't often say such hurtful words.
Besides, Ai Jinling wants to save face the most, it is rare to make trouble outside unless there are special circumstances, what she is most afraid of is being laughed at, especially on a day like today, Ai Xin feels that she will not be so ignorant.
"Fang Jun, you have figured it out for me, what is the occasion today. You two are shameless, I, Ai Jinling, still have face, in front of so many relatives, friends and your colleagues, what kind of thing is she coming?"
Outside the door was still Ai Jinling's slightly bitter and cold tone, but Ai Xin could feel that Ai Jinling was already trying his best to suppress his anger.
If this is at home, Ai Jinling should start dismantling the house directly.
But she still didn't understand who Ai Jinling was referring to by "the two of you". Now there should be only two people outside, Fang Jun and Ai Jinling, Ai Jinling's words...... Could it be that Ai Jinling's so-called "the two of you" is talking about Fang Jun and Ai Xin?
This makes Ai Xin even more confused, in this kind of day, the two of them quarrel and forget it, and bring themselves?
Ai Xin thought hard about it, since he received the call at school and came here, he shouldn't have done anything wrong, and he didn't have any inappropriate behavior, and it was impossible to anger Ai Jinling.
Could it be that Ai Jinling knows the real reason why she didn't go to see her grandfather on Sunday and couldn't see her grandfather for the last time......
Thinking of this, Ai's heart shivered uncontrollably, and the fear that had been suppressed in her heart came out and spread to her whole body, even the hot summer day made her feel a chill all over.
"Okay, I told you that I didn't let her come, don't you make a fuss, I'll let her go right away!"
Fang Jun's voice sounded a little anxious, but it still carried the habitual humility of the past at home, as if coaxing Ai Jinling and threatening her.
Within two minutes, Fang Jun's voice sounded outside again, sounding like he was on the phone.
"Hey, huh...... That one...... Today's occasion is not appropriate, so why don't you go first...... I know, I know you just want to come and take a bow...... But today ......"
Before Fang Jun finished speaking, Ai Xin heard Ai Jinling's "I'm sorry" with all his strength, and then it should be Ai Jinling who snatched the phone and began to scold.
"Do you want a fucking face? You don't look at your identity, bow? Why do you bow? I'll give you five minutes to leave me right away, you shameless bitch......"
Before Ai Jinling finished scolding, Fang Jun grabbed the phone, as if he wanted to say something to round the scene, but the other party had already hung up the phone.
"You are too ......" Fang Jun's hands trembled a little with anger, but he still held back the words he had originally thought of and swallowed, "It's too vulgar......"
"Vulgar?"
Ai Jinling sneered, looking up and down at Fang Jun, who was so angry that he still maintained his image of a humble gentleman, he only felt a little sick to his stomach, but he lost the strength to argue.
"Fang Jun, I'll let you do it once on a day like today, and let me see her again in the future, you two won't have such a good time. ”
After speaking, Ai Xin heard Ai Jinling's familiar voice of high heels, which became smaller and smaller, but step by step, and it seemed that he left first with anger that had not yet dissipated.
A few minutes later, Fang Jun let out a heavy sigh, and it was quiet outside.
Just when Ai Xin thought that the person had finished walking and he could open the door and come out, there was a sudden sound of footsteps, and he gradually walked away, and Ai Xin reacted at this time, it turned out that Fang Jun hadn't left at all just now.
What kind of situation can make Fang Jun, who has always been omnipotent in Ai's heart, so worried, and what a heavy heart it should be to stay quietly alone for so long.
At that time, Ai Xin didn't understand what Ai Jinling said, or rather, she hadn't thought about those things at all. In her impression, Fang Jun is a person who is almost impossible to make mistakes, whether it is a serious attitude towards work or a sense of responsibility for the family, it is not comparable to ordinary men.
Ai Xin has grown up since she was a child, and her ideal for her future husband is a mature and stable man like Fang Jun, who is simple but somewhat talented, responsible, but never rigid.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, Ai Xin couldn't hear any sound outside, so he carefully opened a crack in the door and secretly observed the outside.
Sure enough, Ai Jinling and Fang Jun had already left. Ai Xin breathed a sigh of relief, walked out of the room, gently closed the door again, and after identifying the direction, he walked towards the location of the mourning hall.
Back in the house, the time was quite right, just when the condolences began, and the guests who came shook hands with their families and bowed in turn. Ai Xin secretly got into the queue of family members from behind, listening to the mournful music playing in the house, and her heart was full of feelings.
Fang Jun's mother left a few years ago, and there was only a grandfather at home these years, so even if he was busy with work, Fang Jun would go to his father's house every other day to buy some firewood, rice, oil, salt or food, and check his father's physical condition by the way.
In this hospitalization, Fang Jun did not hire a nurse, and took turns to take care of Ai Jinling in the hospital, and took four or five days of vacation in the middle, and took care of him in the hospital without sleep.
Whether it is relatives, friends or colleagues, they all know that Fang Jun is a dutiful son, when his mother was sick and hospitalized, Fang Jun ran at both ends alone, and he insisted on taking care of the old lady until his death.
At that time, the situation was not like now, Fang Jun's mother walked because of brain dementia, which was no different from Alzheimer's for them, not to mention eating and going out, they couldn't even take care of themselves, they didn't recognize people, and they often lost their temper.
Ai Xin still remembers that at that time, a grandmother's friend came to visit her from far away, but she was scolded by her grandmother, and drove them away.
She intensified her efforts against Fang Jun, although this was not her intention, but Ai Xin really felt sorry for Fang Jun in her eyes. A cadre who said that no one dared to go west in the unit actually changed the old lady's pants and diapers full of feces every day in the hospital. If the old lady opened her mouth, Fang Jun didn't immediately agree and ran over, and she scolded again.
Even so, Fang Jun took care of his mother without complaint, and never showed a trace of impatience in the face of her incontinence, vexatiousness, and all kinds of insults, and he carried it like this for more than half a year, until the old lady died.
At that time, some people once expressed that the old lady was a relief for Fang Jun when she left, and Ai Xin even thought about it in her heart...... But Fang Jun didn't look relieved at all, but looked even more tired than before.
"Xinxin, in the future, my father will not have a mother......"
Ai Xin remembered that when he was keeping vigil in the mourning hall at that time, Fang Jun used to look at the coffin, and said this to himself as if he was talking to himself.
It is also because of this that Ai Xin believes in Fang Jun's sense of responsibility for this family and the whole family without any doubt, as long as it is family affection, even if there is a heavy burden, Fang Jun will do his best to maintain the integrity of a family.
So, when everything happened later, Ai Xin's family not only collapsed, but also the values that she had believed in since she was a child and the father figure that she admired as a god also collapsed.
Grandpa has been gone for less than two years, and the bones are not cold, and Ai Xin has not even forgotten the various pictures on the day of the funeral...... As if cursed, she came to this place again.
It's still a familiar address, it's still a familiar arrangement, it's still a familiar furnishing...... Even the coffin and the posthumous photo were placed in the same position, and the guests who came were similar, basically all relatives and friends at home and Fang Jun's colleagues.
This time, Ai Xin couldn't cry until she fainted, because there were still many things waiting for her to do.
It's only been less than two years, and I'm just a teenager who has just turned fifteen, but I have to take care of all the guests, pour tea and water for them, and chat with them......
The most important thing is that when she goes out of the funeral, she still has to hold the portrait and walk at the forefront of the line.
Because, at this funeral, the deceased was her biological father, Fang Jun.
Ai Xin couldn't even remember how she got to this place.
She still remembers that she secretly ran out of her home, went to Shenzhen, participated in Tong Yu's album signing, looked at the scenery of Shenzhen, ate some local snacks, and then received a strange call from Ai Jin Lingqi, although she was not angry, but Ai Xin was still nervous and immediately bought a ticket home, and rushed to the airport all the way non-stop.
And then...... And then...... When Ai Xin was waiting for boarding at the airport, she saw the news on her mobile phone......
Fang Jun had a car accident and hit the guardrail on the dividing line between the city and the suburbs, and the car was directly bounced out by the guardrail, colliding with two oncoming cars and dying on the spot.
Ai Xin didn't have time to take a closer look at the news, just seeing the words "Fang Jun", "car accident", and "death", he was completely out of his mind, and he couldn't even hold his mobile phone steadily, so he sat in place and started shaking.
Her worst fears came up...... Back then, at her grandfather's funeral, she felt it was a curse.
Losing the opportunity to see your loved ones for the last time because of your own selfish desires is already a big disrespectful thing and will definitely be punished. In the past two years, Ai Xin has tensed his nerves, and he will never dare to live a little slack, only hoping that this retribution can come later, so that he will have time to do his filial piety for his parents first.
Unexpectedly, this retribution not only came so quickly, but it didn't find him, but repaid it on Fang Jun.
Ai Xin didn't have time to think about why Fang Jun appeared on the way to the suburbs, nor did he have time to think about the reason for the car accident, let alone his own future and the future of this family......
The airport radio kept repeating Ai Xin's name, like a talisman, pulling Ai Xin back from fear and anxiety. She picked up her phone on the ground, stood up and walked just two steps, then turned back to pick up her forgotten school bag and hurried to the plane.
When the plane landed, she was like rushing to reincarnate, and the first one unbuckled her seat belt and rushed to the front of the cabin, ready to get off the plane as soon as possible.
"Sister, I'm sorry, I can't get off the plane yet. ”
"Didn't the plane stop?"
Ai Xin looked at the smiling stewardess in front of her, but she felt extremely irritated at this time.
"Well, but the first class and business class guests in front will go down first, sister, you wait a while. ”
"Why...... That one...... I'm sorry, I really have a very important emergency at home, and I rushed back after the death of a loved one, can you be accommodating?"
Ai Xin originally wanted to ask why, but then he remembered that this was one of the services that should be enjoyed in first class, and he only hated that he didn't think of it when he booked the ticket, so he habitually bought an ordinary cabin. But she was really anxious, so she could only plead with the flight attendant with a soft temperament, hoping that the other party could make an exception and let herself go down first.
"Sister, let me go and ask for instructions...... I can't be the master of this, and if you rush out like this, I can't bear the responsibility when asked. ”
The flight attendant seemed to be a little shaken, but as she said, she also didn't have the right to let Ai Xin get off the plane before the first-class guests.
"Then I'm sorry for the trouble, thank you so much. ”
Ai Xin knew that this was already the limit of what the other party could do, so he quickly thanked him and stood in the cabin waiting anxiously.
Originally, as soon as he got off the plane, Ai Xin wanted to take a taxi to the funeral home immediately, but suddenly remembered Ai Jinling's instructions that he was wearing an inappropriate dress, and now in the past, it will only make Ai Jinling feel dull, and he will inevitably be scolded again.
In the car rushing home to change clothes, Ai Xin hated traditional red tape so much for the first time, if it weren't for the fucked tradition of having to wear black clothes to the funeral, she might have seen her father an hour earlier.
But soon, Ai Xin banished this thought from her brain and gently slapped herself as a wake-up call.
The person who is leaving now is his father, no matter what the rules are, it is respect for his father, and he would have such disobedient thoughts, forget it...... I am such a selfish person, I would not go to see my grandfather for a date, and now I will almost ruin the tradition of the funeral because I don't know the rules......
Ai Xin leaned on the back of the driver's seat in front of him, closed his eyes, and only hoped that the car would drive faster.
