Chapter 7: Grandpa
"Don't blame them, it's me who didn't let me know. Xu Liyuan said that she was lying in the house, listening to the sound outside before coming out, and when she heard this, she said it out loud.
Zeng Fanxing looked at her disapprovingly, "Mom." ”
"You don't know how much your grandmother hurt me. Xu Liyuan said excitedly, "When I am so sad, I don't want them to appear in front of me and stimulate me again." ”
"That's Dad's Mom and Dad, can you bear to let them not even know about Dad's death?" Zeng Fanxing said.
"This surname is Zeng, it is surnamed Zeng, I was born, your grandmother never hugged you, nor did she buy you anything, you still remember her, I am so good to you, useless, white-eyed wolf. Magnolia slammed the plate.
Zeng Fanxing looked at Xu Liyuan, "Grandparents have the right to know about Dad's death." ”
"Then you are the good granddaughter of the Zeng family, you go and inform it. Xu Liyuan said, "You go and greet yourself, don't bring it in, don't let me see it." ”
"If you don't want me to die. ”
"Mom. Zeng Fanxing shouted.
"White-eyed wolf. Xu Chengcai snorted.
Zeng Fanxing wiped the tears on her face and silently returned to the room, she looked at the phone for a long time, and finally sent a long text message to her uncle, her father's younger brother.
Almost a few seconds after it was sent, the phone from the other side came, Zeng Fanxing answered the phone, and a trembling wheezing voice came from there, "You said, you said what happened to your father." ”
"Uncle, Dad is gone. Zeng Fanxing burst into tears when he said it, no matter how long it was, no matter how many times he said it, thinking that his father was gone, tears came out involuntarily.
There was a ping-pong sound on the other side of the phone, obviously the impact was too great, and he was unsteady on his feet, and after a while, he said, "How come, how can it be gone? ”
"There was a car accident. Zeng Fanxing said, "I have gone to the cemetery for burial today." ”
"What, it's already buried today?" Zeng Zhibo said, "Then why didn't anyone notify us, why, why did you call today." ”
"I'm sorry uncle. Zeng Fanxing said, "I'm sorry, I only remembered these things today." ”
After Zeng Zhibo gasped a few times, he suppressed and said, "It's not your fault, this is not something that you should remember as a child." ”
"Uncle, I don't dare call Grandpa. Zeng Fanxing said.
"I'll go and say. Zeng Zhibo said, "My grandfather and I will come to Haishi tomorrow." ”
"Hmm. Zeng Fanxing said, "Tell me what time the ticket is, I'll pick you up, we, let's go see Dad." ”
Zeng Zhibo hung up the phone, so he squatted on the ground with his head in his hands, crying couldn't help himself.
Big brother, he has been outstanding since he was a child, the eldest brother who shines on the lintel. God, you don't have long eyes.
"Daddy, it's time to eat. Wu Caixia wiped her hands and came out and saw Zeng Zhibo squatting at the door crying, "What's wrong with you?"
Wu Caixia hurriedly stepped forward to inquire.
Zeng Zhibo choked up and said, "Big brother, big brother is gone." ”
After Wu Caixia heard it clearly, she couldn't believe it, "How can a person die when he is so good? Isn't his body always good?"
"Car accident. Zeng Zhibotun sat low, "My sister-in-law is so ruthless, she didn't let anyone inform us, I just forget it, my father and mother didn't even see the last time my eldest brother." ”
"Big brother, big brother. Zeng Zhibo clapped the ground and shouted. "Why did you just leave. ”
"Is it already buried?" Wu Caixia asked, "This in-laws don't do things authentically, how can they not be notified." ”
"Lovely just texted me and I called. Zeng Zhibo said, "She didn't dare to call her father." ”
"Cute is a child, how can she make this call, this mother is so forbearing. Wu Caixia cried and said that she had a daughter, who was two years younger than Zeng Fanxing, and she thought that if she encountered this incident, it would be heartbreaking to let her daughter notify her relatives.
The husband and wife hugged each other at the door, and Zeng Kejun shouted in the house, "Mom, why don't you come in yet, it's time to eat." ”
"You eat first, the small bowl is a dish left for your sister, don't move. Wu Caixia shouted, and then wiped her tears with her apron and asked Zeng Zhibo, "Then how do you go and tell your father." ”
"To tell you the truth, is there anything else to say now?" Zeng Zhibo choked up, "Unless my brother comes back to life, it will be sad to say anything." ”
"I'm going to Haishi with my dad tomorrow. Zeng Zhibo said, "You take some money and put it on for me." ”
"Big brother, big brother still lent us 200,000 yuan, but we haven't paid it back, and big brother is gone. Zeng Zhibo said and cried again.
"We're not ungrateful, although the eldest brother is gone, the cuteness is still there, in the future, let's return the money to the cute. Wu Caixia said.
"Yes, yes, yes. Zeng Zhibo said.
In the night of the small fishing island, the sound of the waves is a quiet sound, Zeng Zhibo walked from his own fishing house to his father's house, Zeng Guangdong sat in his small courtyard smoking hookah, Liu Amei dried fish in the small kitchen built outside, "You eldest granddaughter, you are a golden nobleman, this dried fish must be clean, it must taste beautiful, the seasoning must be good, and the packaging must be good, it is really difficult to serve." ”
"Then don't wait. Zeng Guangdong said happily.
"I'm too lazy to wait, isn't there a little bit of the box sent by my son, and I won't get it again after it's finished. Liu Amei said, "Like her mother, I dislike that we are from the township." ”
"Hey. Zeng Guangdong shook his head disapprovingly, "Cute or very well-behaved, I don't think the reading glasses she bought for you were bought by Da'er, and even the color you liked, Da'er is not so careful." ”
"These reading glasses are really good, they don't look as good as mine. Liu Amei said.
"Or, you and your daughter-in-law are soft, don't make it difficult for the eldest child to be in the middle, cute, and come back to see us. Zeng Guangdong said.
"Why don't you say that your daughter-in-law will come and give me a soft dress. Liu Amei said, "When she was cute, I went to serve the confinement child, I was angry with her, I was angry with her mother, and in my life, unless I died, I couldn't forget it." ”
"Dad, Mom. Zeng Zhibo shouted outside the courtyard.
"Oh, the youngest son is here. Liu Amei said, "Have you eaten?" ”
"Eat, Mom, I want to talk to Dad about something. Zeng Zhibo said.
"Just come in. Zeng Guangdong knocked on the hookah stick, "What's the matter, you still want me to go over." ”
"Yes. Dad, there seems to be a problem with the engine of my fishing boat, you can help me take a look. Zeng Zhibo said with a wit.
"I'm such an adult, I have to come back to my dad when I have something. Liu Amei said, "Old man, what are you still rubbing, hurry up and take a look, his boat will pick up guests tomorrow." ”
Zeng Guangdong knocked on the cigarette stick again, as if he was a little complaining that his son's arrival had affected his leisure time at night, put the cigarette stick next to the stool, and walked out with his clothes on.
Zeng Zhibo led the person to his boat and didn't let him get on the boat to see, "Dad, what I want to tell you, I have to tell my mother slowly." ”
Zeng Guangdong looked at him, and when he looked close at night, he could see the redness and swelling of his son's eyes and his sad expression.
Zeng Guangdong's heart sank.
"Dad, big brother is gone. Zeng Zhibo said with tears in his eyes, "I didn't have a car accident, but I have been buried today." ”
Zeng Guangdong was in a trance, he wanted to take two puffs of cigarettes, only to find that he didn't bring the cigarette stick, Zeng Zhibo hurriedly took out the cigarette case and smoked a cigarette for him, and handed over the lighter, Zeng Guangdong took a cigarette in one hand and a lighter in the other, his hand slipped twice, but he didn't get out of the fire, Zeng Zhibo lit the cigarette on him again, Zeng Guangdong took a few puffs of cigarette, he couldn't smoke the cigarette, he felt that the cigarette was flushed, and the taste was not good.
But now the smell of cigarettes, which he disliked the most, filled his chest, and he felt uncomfortable with the smoke, and his dry eyes became sour.
"How do you know, did you call your brother?" Zeng Guangdong still looked calm, if his hand holding the cigarette hadn't shaken. "It's impossible, how can we be buried to let us know. ”
"Lovely call from six o'clock. Zeng Zhibo said, "I called my eldest brother's mobile phone and no one answered, I called Li Wenjie's phone, he said, please mourn." ”
A big man, with his head down, whining and choking, which makes people sad.
"Tomorrow, tomorrow, let's go to the sea market. Zeng Guangdong said, "I didn't see it with my own eyes, I don't believe it, the boss is not a short-lived person, he was born this other people look at the eight characters, they are all very good, the eight characters of the glory of the ancestors, there is a saying that his relatives are thin, I think he only gave birth to a daughter, and it should be on this, this eight characters are very accurate, there is nothing else bad, how can it be short-lived?"
"I don't believe it, I'm going to go to Haishi tomorrow. ”
Zeng Zhibo nodded.
"Don't cry. Zeng Guangdong said, "Maybe your eldest brother is fine, you are crying frustrated." ”
Zeng Zhibo held back his tears, but he knew that no one would joke about this, looking at his stubborn father, he could only hope that this person who had gone through most of his life would not be crushed by this blow.
Zeng Guangdong smoked a cigarette in his yard all night, and in the morning Liu Amei got up and found him sitting under the porch, and came over to push him, "What time did you go to bed last night, and what time did you wake up today, oh you smell like this, how much smoke did you smoke, and you have to die." ”
"It's all cold, how long have I been sitting, and I don't know what to wear. ”
"I don't know how long you can live if I die, and I don't know how long you can live. Liu Amei chattered about the old man, snatched the cigarette stick here, brought a coat over there, and a cup of hot water, "Would you like to beat an egg in the morning?" ”
"I went to pick up guests with my son. Zeng Guangdong said that he rubbed the small photo in his pocket, which was the ID photo taken by his eldest son when he was admitted to university, and this was the first key university student in their Zeng family, so he pulled a banner in the village for a month and set off firecrackers for three days.
It was the splendor of his life, his pride, and the light on his face.
This inch of the photo is his treasure, yesterday when he went home he went upstairs to touch it, put it in his pocket, take it out to look at it twice, put it in again, take it out to look at it twice, and put it in again.
He is such a good son, why is there no more
Zeng Zhibo also didn't sleep all night, his spirit was very poor, so he finally changed into a decent coat, he wanted to persuade Zeng Guangdong to change his clothes, but the old man was stubborn and wanted to go out.
took the earliest bus to Haishi, father and son looked out the window, speechless all the way.
