Later, less than a month later, Zhao Anbang died.

He was buried in the spring season.

After he left, when Fan Shasha was sorting out his belongings, he took out a neatly placed picture album from his hospital bed cabinet, the first page of the album was the picture of Ju Ze and Nian Nian eating locust flower roasted fish at his house, and there was a line of words next to Ju Ze's portrait, which was Zhao Anbang's note, which read: "Ju Ze, give him an electric toothbrush, he and Fan Shasha are married." Nian Nian is his younger sister, who likes to eat Huaihua roasted fish, and when the time comes, he will tell him how to cook Huaihua roasted fish. ”

On the second page, there is a picture of Wan Min'an changing his dressing, Zhao Anbang wrote: "Wan Min'an, section chief, is in his forties, take care of me the longest, send a massager." ”

Flipping back, each person who appears in the album has a detailed mark, a name, an identity, a hobby, and something he intends to give them......

Originally...... He was able to suddenly remember everyone's names that day, and he could remember what everyone had done, not because he suddenly regained his memory, but because he recorded it in this way.

In the last stage of his life, what he wanted to do most was to repay his kindness.

Fan Shasha's tears fell on the album, she quickly wiped away the tears, then put the album away, and handed it to Wan Min'an.

Wan Minan couldn't help but be moved after reading it, he felt that everyone in the group should know about this matter, so he also handed it over to others to circulate.

When Shen Yiming flipped to this album, there seemed to be a lump of stuff in his throat, and he couldn't swallow it or get up, he had never been so uncomfortable.

From the beginning, he joined this group with self-interested purposes, and from childhood to adulthood, he seemed to be accustomed to doing everything to consider whether it was good or not, and he generally did not do it if it was not beneficial......

How does it deserve to be remembered and appreciated like this?

That day, Shen Yiming took the album back to the dormitory, and lay on the bed and read it over and over. When I woke up the next day, a bunch of pillows were soaking wet.

He got up to brush his teeth, and then saw a message from the head of the department: "Yiming, you are going to reply to me about your graduate school recently, I know you have been looking forward to this opportunity for a long time, when will you leave?"

Before he could reply, he suddenly received another call from his mother, who rarely called him at this time, he thought something urgent and quickly picked it up.

On the other end of the phone, my mother said, "Your third sister just called me and said that she was going to come back and get her household registration book to get married, which made me angry! This little girl, who hasn't called back for a few years, will get married as soon as she comes back! We don't even know what that man's name looks like, she doesn't regard us as parents anymore, and she doesn't tell us about such a big thing!"

Shen Yiming was happy in his heart, and his first reaction was that the third sister, who had been struggling like a machine, was finally going to get married, and someone could take care of her in the future, and she didn't have to be so tired anymore.

He hurriedly persuaded his mother: "If the third sister wants it, you can give it, the third sister has seen the world, and the object she is looking for will definitely not be bad." Don't meddle with it. ”

Shen's mother was silent for a moment and said, "How can it be done? ”

Shen Yiming guessed that her reaction was because she wanted money, and he said angrily: "Mom, is money so important in your hearts? Is it more important than flesh and blood relatives? How much money has the eldest sister, second sister, and third sister posted to the family over the years? Isn't it enough? The third sister is thirty years old this year, and she will definitely have children after she gets married, and it will be another expense when the time comes...... I beg you to stop torturing the third sister. ”

Shen's mother heard that Shen Yiming was angry, and her tone suddenly softened, and she said with some grievances: "Your father and I have done so much for you......"

Shen Yiming sighed deeply: "Mom, I know you are for me, but I have said it many times, I don't need it, and I can't take care of myself." You're really making me uncomfortable by doing this...... And I'm not good, can't I work, can't I support myself?"

Shen Mu immediately said: "Of course not, you are the best!"

"That's it, don't ask for that money, it's cost-effective to change the third sister to have some feelings for you and Dad. ”

Shen's mother was silent for a while, and no longer mentioned the matter of the third sister, and said instead: "Your father went to the hospital again, since the accident last time, he was not in good health, and he ran to the hospital twice in three days, and he couldn't do any heavy work." ”

When Shen Yiming heard this, he suddenly fell silent, in fact, why did he preach to his parents here? He accepted their most love, but he didn't get close to them, and he always blamed them in his heart for giving him such a family background.

His parents don't love his three sisters, and he doesn't love his parents enough, they are all the same thin and cold, and no one has the right to blame anyone.

Perhaps it was Zhao Anbang's album that softened his heart, and he suddenly wanted to go home to see his parents, who were no longer young, and he said, "I'll go home tomorrow." ”

Shen's mother hurriedly said: "I don't need you to come back, you work hard, your father is fine, your work is important." ”

"No matter how important it is, it's not as important as family. Shen Yiming interrupted her, "It's okay for me to take a few days off, I haven't taken my annual leave this year, don't worry, it won't be delayed, it's settled." ”

Mother Shen over there is not easy to persuade again.

After hanging up the phone, Shen Yiming called the third sister again, and the third sister still had a lukewarm attitude and asked him, "What's the matter?"

Shen Yiming said: "Third sister, I heard that you are getting married, congratulations." ”

The third sister said, "Thank you." I went to work without any problems. ”

Shen Yiming hurriedly said, "Something...... Aren't you going home to get your hukou certificate? I'm going to go home tomorrow, and if you don't want to see your parents, I'll secretly help you get your hukou book, and you can just get it. ”

The third sister stopped talking. Shen Yiming once suspected that she hung up the phone directly, but when she took it away, the number of talk time on the mobile phone was still increasing, and she was holding the phone on the other end of the phone.

Shen Yiming held his breath and stared, afraid that the third sister would still hang up the phone ruthlessly in the next second.

After almost a minute, the third sister spoke: "Yiming, in fact, I have always thought that your younger brother is very good, you are very sensible...... For so many years, my hatred for you has been transferred from your parents, in fact, I know that you did not ask them to do that. I'm sorry. ”

Shen Yiming knew that although he didn't ask his parents to suck his sister's blood to feed him, his parents did it for this purpose, so he could always understand that the third sister hated him.

A smile rose at the corner of his mouth: "Sister, what is the family sorry for." ”

"I'll be home the next morning. ”

Shen Yiming was looking forward to it: "Well, I know, I'll see you when I go home." Now you go to work, I won't bother you. ”

After going to the hospital, Shen Yiming and the director took leave, and the next night, he arrived at home.

slept peacefully for one night, and the next morning, the third sister sent him a message saying that she was almost home.

Shen Yiming hurriedly went to his parents' room to take out the household registration book, and stood at the door waiting for the third sister.

The third sister got out of the car, followed by a man, Shen Yiming guessed that he should be the third brother-in-law, but he didn't ask much, and directly handed the household registration book to the third sister, saying, "Third sister, you can go." ”

The third sister, who has not been seen for many years, is much more mature than when she left, and she is no longer as immature as when she just left home, but her innate sharp temperament has not diminished at all, and is even sharper.

The third sister didn't get the household registration book as Shen Yiming imagined and immediately turned around and left, she looked at the household registration book and was silent for a moment, and suddenly said: "We are all on the same household registration book, and we are still a family in the end." ”

Although Shen Yiming didn't know what she was doing with this, he still smiled and nodded: "Yes." ”

The third sister put away the household registration book, pulled the man behind her, and said to Shen Yiming: "He is about to be your future brother-in-law, called He Yu." What about Mom and Dad? I'll have to tell them about it. ”

Shen Yiming was very happy, the third sister was willing to introduce her fiancé to her parents, which meant that she was also willing to forgive her parents.

"Mom is at home, Dad went to the hospital, he had an accident two or three years ago, so his health has not been good. ”

The third sister was silent for a moment, and then waited for He Yu to go in to see her mother.

When her mother saw the third sister, she didn't seem to recognize it at once, and when she realized that it was her daughter, she had a cold face and said, "You still know to come back!"

Shen Yiming hurriedly went over to persuade: "Mom, the third sister finally came back, don't quarrel with her!"

He Yu put down the gift he bought and said hello: "Hello, Auntie." "He was very polite.

But he shouldn't be used to them...... Shen Yiming secretly glanced at He Yu and was slightly relieved to see that he didn't have a big reaction. However, it is not okay to continue to let her mother expose their family's family style, and his third brother-in-law will definitely have an opinion about their family at that time.

But whether it was the third sister or the third brother-in-law, the reaction was relatively indifferent, the third sister took out a wad of money and handed it to Shen's mother, depending on the thickness of the money, it should not be less than 100,000 yuan, not lower than the local average.

Mother Shen looked at the money in surprise: "What do you mean?"

"I'm getting married, this is from He Yu, the bride price. ”

With this attitude to give a bride price, anyway, Shen Yiming can't feel a little joy at all, and can only feel the contempt and alienation of his third brother-in-law and his third sister from their family.

He knew that if she didn't take the money, she could sit down and talk to her family, but as long as she took the money, their relationship really ended there.

But Shen's mother thought about it for a while, so she reached out and took the money. In her heart, the bride price should be given as a matter of course.

Shen Yiming really saw a deeper ridicule on the third sister's face, he snatched the money, stuffed it back into the third sister's hand, and said to the third sister: "The bride price is not important, the important thing is that the third sister is that you can be happy." I don't know what the third brother-in-law does?

The third sister sneered, these things should have been cared for by their parents, but they didn't expect to come out of the mouth of this younger brother in the end.

"If you want to know, I'll just tell you back. I won't waste your time now. The third sister said.

Shen's mother also had a dark face and said, "What are you talking about! How can you waste time by telling your family about your partner? I'll go and call your eldest sister and second sister and your father back now! Let everyone know each other!"

Shen Yiming also persuaded him: "Third sister, your parents care about you, but you also know that they just can't speak......

The third sister looked at He Yu, He Yu nodded and said, "I really should explain it to my uncle and aunt." ”

Shen Yiming breathed a sigh of relief, and he also had a good impression of this third brother-in-law.

The third sister listened to this brother-in-law very much, so in the end, she sat down honestly and talked to her mother about He Yu.

The third sister said that He Yu was an ordinary part-time worker, and like her, his family background was not particularly superior. Their house in the big city was bought by the two of them together.

Shen's mother listened to it and was a little dissatisfied, but Shen Yiming privately repeatedly warned her not to destroy their relationship, and Shen's mother didn't say anything after all.

In the end, the bride price was accepted. Shen Yiming wanted to ask his mother to return the money to the third sister, but the third sister didn't want it, and said: "The money was given by me and He Yu together, my father can't work now, and it's not easy for them to live." ”

Shen Yiming didn't persuade again, but he was happy in his heart, the third sister was just hard-mouthed, and she also cared about her parents.

The third sister didn't wait for the eldest sister and the second sister to come over, she said that there was an urgent matter in the company, and he and He Yu had to rush back to deal with it as soon as possible.

Shen's mother didn't keep her either. However, she turned her face and packed up a bag of the third sister's favorite plum vegetables, handed it to Shen Yiming, and said, "You can give it to your third sister." ”

The mother and daughter obviously care about each other, but they may have been used to it all along, so neither of them will tell each other directly.
