Chapter 18 Castle Peak Sanatorium
On the weekend, Shu Xin got up and packed everything, but sat on the sofa in a daze. Tang Zizhao looked at her for a long time, walked over and sat beside her and asked, "What's the matter, didn't you go to see your grandfather?"
Shu Xin turned her head and said with some displeasure: "I'm afraid to see them, I remember the night my grandmother died, my grandfather slapped my mother hard, I still remember my grandmother and aunt bullying my mother in different ways, I also remember that they always talk with guns and sticks, which makes people feel uncomfortable." ”
"It seems that the Shu family is not good to Aunt Chu. ”
"It's not good, it's not a family member at all, if it weren't for my father, I guess my mother wouldn't have entered the door of the Shu family. My dad was really good to my mom, and my mom was right when she was wrong. ”
Shu Xin turned her head to look at Tang Zizhao again, "You said that two people who love each other so much, how come my mother can marry your father when my father dies." ”
Tang Zizhao rubbed the top of her hair with a smile and said, "That's their business, why should we bother so much." ”
Shu Xin pouted and looked at him unhappily, Tang Zizhao touched his nose and said: "My dad and your mom are also childhood sweethearts, my grandfather and your grandfather are old comrades-in-arms and colleagues, it is said that the two of them are like brothers, originally they also hoped that my dad and your mother were good, who knew that the two people did not come together, they were quite disappointed, and the two people who didn't want to make a mistake finally came together, maybe this is their fate, they can't run away if they want to." ”
"You're saying that the two of them were brokered by my grandfather and your grandfather?"
"I guess it's possible. Okay, let's not talk about it, are you still going?"
Shu Xin took a deep breath and said "go" firmly.
Shu Xin and Tang Zizhao came to Pingshan Sanatorium with gifts, looking at the beautiful scenery around them, Shu Xin sighed: "The environment here is really good, and I will have no regrets if I can live in such a place when I am old." ”
Tang Zizhao looked at her excited little appearance and smiled, and said, "Okay, I'll accompany you, and we'll live in a sanatorium together." ”
"What's the matter with you?"
Shu Xin's words made Tang Zizhao's smile that he finally melted into ice again, "Shu Xin, I found out that you really haven't opened the house for three days, okay, you can go in for a while, I'll go first and take a taxi back." ”
Shu Xin looked around, it would be hellish if she could get a taxi here, she had really slackened in the past few days, and she didn't cover up talking to Tang Zizhao, she still lived with him now, this god can't afford to offend. Shu Xin immediately put on a smile and said, "Oh, no problem, when the time comes, the two of us will be residents." ”
Tang Zizhao turned his face and exhaled a bad breath, and said with some unpleasure: "Shu Xin, are you sure that I won't be able to catch up with you in my life?
Shu Xin looked at Tang Zizhao, who was playing the young master's temper, shrugged his shoulders helplessly, and walked in alone with a gift.
Walking into the ward, Shu Xin saw that Old Man Shu and Shu Jinmei were already dressed and waiting for her. Seeing her enter the door, Shu Jinmei hurriedly stepped forward to greet her, smiling so much that she couldn't see her eyebrows, "Oh, Shu Xin, you are here, we woke up early in the morning and began to look forward to the stars and the moon, and finally we can look forward to you, come and come, hey, what kind of gifts do you bring, just come." ”
Saying that, he happily took the gift and said, "Come and see grandpa." ”
Shu Xin let go of the gift and walked to Old Man Shu and squatted down, held his hand and said, "Grandpa, I came to see you, are you okay?"
Old Man Shu looked at her with a dull gaze, uh-uh didn't know what he was talking about, and he didn't know what to do when he raised his hands as he spoke.
Shu Xin looked back at Shu Jinmei, and Shu Jinmei hurriedly explained: "Alzheimer's disease, it's been four years, I was in a nursing home in the city at the beginning, and your mother sent me here after I got sick, so I won't be chained here." ”
"Auntie, you have worked hard, I didn't know that I had just come back, and I would often come to help you in the future. ”
"Ah, the family doesn't talk to each other, we are naturally happy to have you here. ”
Shu Jinmei seemed to think of something and said: "Shu Xin, I have a letter here, which has been placed with me for thirteen or fourteen years, and I think it's time to give it to you." ”
Shu Xin frowned, it was a letter again, what kind of letter? Thirteen or fourteen years, that was when my father just died.
Shu Jinmei quickly took out a letter from the drawer and handed it to Shu Xin, "This is your father's suicide note, which should have been given to you a long time ago, but your mother didn't let me see you, so I never had a chance to give it to you." ”
"Suicide note? doesn't it mean that there is no suicide note?"
Shu Xin asked suspiciously, where did this come from?
Shu Jinmei couldn't catch her question, smiled awkwardly and said, "Ah, your father gave it to me when I went to visit the prison." ”
"My dad handed you the suicide note, why didn't you say it, why didn't you find a way to stop him from committing suicide. ”
Shu Xin was a little excited, since her father had a suicide note to hand over to her aunt in advance, she had time and a chance to prevent the tragedy from happening.
"No, I didn't know it was a suicide note, your father only said that it was a letter to you, but later he committed suicide and found out that it was a suicide note. ”
Shu Xin listened and regretted why this letter couldn't reach her earlier, why her mother didn't let her see her aunt, if she could see her aunt, would getting this letter change the result.
Shu Xin opened the envelope, opened the letter and saw that the handwriting was exactly the same as hers, it was her father's handwritten letter, there was nothing wrong with it, the letter was written to her.
Shu Xin:
By the time you read this letter, Dad may not be able to complete our previous agreement with you. I'm sorry Shu Xin, maybe the person I'm most sorry for in this world is you. Your grandmother has passed away, because I am an unfilial son, I don't want to criticize your mother, I love her more than anything. But I couldn't accept that the woman I loved the most and my brother I trusted the most betrayed me and robbed me of the morning that I had worked so hard to create. There is no hope for my future, and seventeen years is enough for me to become a complete waste.
Shu Xin, you have to grow up well, I don't want you to avenge me, I just want you to live happily and live for yourself.
Love your dad Shu this morning
Shu Xin held the letter with trembling hands, and her thoughts returned to fourteen years ago.
After Shu Jinchen was imprisoned, Chu Yanping took Shu Xin back, and the two went to the prison to visit Shu Jinchen, which was the first time Shu Xin saw her father in nearly half a year.
As soon as Shu walked into their field of vision this morning, Shu Xin stood up and shouted "Dad" loudly. This call after call made Shu Jinchen's eyes wet all of a sudden.
Shu Jinchen took two steps and took one step in front of the mother and daughter and took the earpiece, "Are you all right?"
"Dad, I'm fine, Mom said you behave well in there, and we'll see each other soon. ”
Shu wiped his eyes this morning and said, "Yes, Dad will behave well and go out early to reunite with you, Xin'er is good, Dad should listen to Mom when he is not at home, study hard, and tell Dad when he is admitted to college." ”
"When I go to college, will my dad come home?"
"Yes, Dad will be able to come home when you go to college. ”
"Then we'll pull the hook. ”
Through the thick glass window, the father and daughter could not pull the hook as usual, and after a few attempts, they could only symbolically pull the hook with the father through the glass window.
Despite this, Shu Xin still giggled happily. After Shu Xin finished speaking, Chu Yanping took the microphone and said: "The last shareholders' meeting next week, the results of the competition should come out, if, I said if, this morning, don't blame me, I have worked very hard, but I have wasted myself too much for so many years, I'm sorry." ”
Shu Jinchen smiled and shook his head and said: "Yanping, it's me who says I'm sorry, you shouldn't bear all this, it's I who don't listen to persuasion, and finally reap the consequences." At the beginning, Yinzhong persuaded me, saying that it was too dangerous to do so, and I insisted on doing it. Yanping, no matter what the result is, Yanping, take care of Shu Xin, take care of yourself, and wait for me to come out. ”
Chu Yanping was relieved a lot when she heard his words, and nodded while wiping her tears, Shu Jinchen looked at her and wanted to hug her in his arms through this thick glass to comfort her, but he couldn't do it, so he could only be annoyed in his heart alone.
The time for the visit was soon up, and the prison guard urged Shu Jinchen, who was finally willing to get up and put down the microphone, but the person looked back at the mother and daughter step by step, and finally disappeared into the field of vision of the mother and daughter through the door.
Chu Yanping and Shu Xin also stood up when Shu Jinchen got up, looking at Shu Jinchen walking out of their sight step by step, Shu Xin finally shed the first tear of the day, and then cried uncontrollably, and kept reaching out and shouting, "I want Dad, I want Dad." ”
This stirred up the tears that Chu Yanping had just put away again, and hugged Shu Xin and couldn't stop persuading: "Shu Xin, be obedient, your mother will bring you here in the future, don't make trouble, don't make trouble, good child, mother will take you home, go, let's go home." ”
Shu Xin held the letter and cried hysterically, why, why did this letter arrive in her hands fourteen years late, she and her father had obviously pulled the hook at the beginning, why did he break his promise and leave her no hope at all, so resolutely chose a point of no return.
Shu Xin didn't know how she got out of the nursing home, and as soon as she got out of the inpatient building, Shu Xin received a call from Su Chang, "Hey, Shu Xin, your time for today's visit is almost up, can you come on time?"
Shu Xin looked up at the empty environment around her, except for the private car, she couldn't see a taxi, she said with tears in her eyes: "I'll try my best, I don't have a taxi here, and I don't know how to get out." ”
"Where are you?"
"Hirayama Sanatorium. ”
"It's so far away, it's hard to call a taxi. Then you try your best, if you can't come, give me a call, and I'll make you an appointment tomorrow. ”
Shu Xin hung up the phone before returning to her soul and walked towards the gate, but was stopped by a car within two steps.
Shu Xin looked at this familiar model, a little angry, but there was no other way, so she could only pull the car door and sit in the passenger seat.
"Aren't you gone, why are you still there?"
"How can you go home when I'm gone, it's hard to live here. ”
Shu Xin was so angry that she picked up her fist and relentlessly punched Tang Zizhao's arm, as if she was venting and revenge, "If you know how to bully people, you know how to bully people."
Tang Zizhao was so angry by her that he pushed her away, but when he saw her tearful face, his anger instantly turned into unbearable.
"Shu Xin, what's wrong, don't cry, I won't bully you, let's go home. ”
Shu Xin roared angrily: "If I don't go home, I'm going to the hospital, to the psychiatric hospital." ”
Tang Zizhao chuckled in his heart, "Shu Xin, what nonsense are you talking about." ”
Shu Xin glared at him angrily, stared at him for a while, and then withdrew his gaze when he was tired, "Send me to Su Chang's psychological clinic." ”
"Shu Xin, what's wrong with you, why do you want to see a psychiatrist. ”
Shu Xin turned her head to look at him, and said to him with a little mockery: "Tang Gongzi, seeing a psychiatrist does not mean that you are mentally ill, psychological examination is like a physical examination, it does not mean that you have a physical examination when you are sick, it is to prevent diseases." Psychology is like the body, it is not always healthy, and normal people's psychology is not necessarily without any problems, especially for high-intensity workers like you, proper psychological counseling is helpful for physical and mental health. How about it, I can make an appointment for you with or not. ”
"I'll just ask, why do you talk so much, is your heart weak?"
"I'm too lazy to pay attention to you, people who don't understand psychology. ”
"Yes, I don't understand, Shu Da expert. Where's the psychiatric clinic?"
"You drive, enter the city and I'll tell you how to get there. ”
