A few weeks later, the old man was seriously ill, lying limply in a hospital bed with an oxygen tube in his nose, his two sons and daughter-in-law waiting at his bedside for him to say something, and the doctors told them to prepare themselves in advance.

The old man didn't say anything from beginning to end, and the daughters-in-law, who were already impatient to wait, went home separately, leaving only the two sons who took turns on duty.

On the weekend, the daughters-in-law came again, and the old man's condition was getting worse and worse, and both families seemed to be nervously waiting for the old man's last words.

"Dad, how are you feeling?" the eldest son asked the old man.

The old man still didn't speak.

"The house in the western suburbs, do you plan to leave it to me or my brother, and the one in the southern suburbs, don't forget, I will keep you with you for a lot more days than my brother!" said the eldest son.

"How can you say that, big brother, I am on a business trip all the year round, of course, the time with my dad is short, besides, after so many years, have you ever given my dad a little money, you just take it, when have you ever given my dad pension. The second son said dissatisfiedly.

"It's as if you gave it!" Second brother, just the little money you gave, count it as money, you didn't take anything from our father, and besides, our father is short of money!" the boss glared at the second child and said.

"That's it!" said the eldest daughter-in-law, "I don't go home all year round, and I'm embarrassed to ask for a house." ”

"What do you mean, sister-in-law, you don't seem to go to your father's place a few times a year, you are embarrassed to say!" the second daughter-in-law quit and choked.

"Hey, what do you mean, you seem to come home often, you don't even let the old man see your grandson, you still have a face!" the eldest daughter-in-law said angrily.

"How can you scold people, you are shameless!" the second daughter-in-law shouted loudly.

"Cut, look at the way you look at the soil, the countryside has no connotation. The eldest daughter-in-law said in a strange voice.

"What's wrong with the countrymen!Ah! What's wrong with the countrymen, three generations up, the countrymen are your ancestors!" the second daughter-in-law shouted unceremoniously.

Seeing that the room was about to become a mess, the doctor suddenly pushed the door and entered.

"What's the noise, what's the noise, this is the ward, you have to make noise, go out and make noise!" the doctor snapped.

At this point, everyone barely kept their mouths.

"Mr. Yan, there is a tall student outside who wants to see you, I don't know if you recognize you. The doctor said to the old man.

Hearing this, the old man's eyes suddenly brightened.

"Quick...... Fast...... Let him in. The old man said anxiously.

"Okay. The doctor pushed away the patients in the ward and shouted to the side, "Come in, Mr. Yan wants to see you." ”

The boy walked in and saw that he was not holding nutrition or fruit in either hand, but a box of chess in one hand and a wooden chessboard in the other.

"You...... Here we are......," the old man gasped.

"I'm coming. The boy said calmly.

"Who are you?" asked the eldest son.

The boy ignored him.

"Doctor...... Troublesome...... You, let me ...... Two...... Son and daughter-in-law...... Let's all go out for a while...... Ahem, cough, cough. The old man said with difficulty.

"Several, please. The doctor waved at them.

"Why, who is this guy, why should he be alone with the old man, what should he do!" said the eldest daughter-in-law.

"Yes, we can't go out. The eldest son said.

"That's it, this guy may be the old man's private ......"

Before the second daughter-in-law finished speaking, the second son hurriedly dragged her, and she stopped herself.

"You...... You guys...... You guys...... Ahem...... Give me...... Get me out!" the old man said suddenly, coughing incessantly, and the corners of his mouth were coughing up blood.

"If you don't go out yet, are you going to kill Yan Lao!" the doctor snapped.

A few people reluctantly pushed the door and walked out.

"Mr. Yan, are you alright?" said the doctor as he hurriedly walked over.

"No, it's okay, doctor, I'm ...... ...... Besides...... I know for myself, I want to ask you now...... thing. The old man said.

"Anything, you just say. ”

"Help me...... Outside the door...... See...... Looking at ...... My son and daughter-in-law, worship...... Please. The old man said.

"Don't worry, I'll watch them, you two talk first, I'll go out first. After the doctor finished speaking, he walked to the door of the ward, opened the door and walked out.

Outside the door, the old man's son and daughter-in-law kept an eye on the situation inside the ward from the window of the door.

"I'm so sorry my family says that about you. The old man said.

The boy smiled and said, "I didn't take it to heart. ”

"Do you know what I want to do now?" said the old man.

The boy nodded, he lifted a chair, placed it in front of the old man's window, and placed the chessboard on it.

"You know me best. The old man said with relief.

The young man put the flag on and said, "You say, I'll help you go, red first and black first, you go first." ”

The old man smiled and said, "You don't have to think about the beginning, of course it's the first cannon, and the cannon is two into five." ”

The young man smiled and said, "Ma eight into seven." ”

"Horse two into three. ”

"Cannon two into five. ”

……

Two hours later, the old man sighed, "I lost, this time I really lost." ”

"You really used all your strength, you blinded me last time. The boy said.

"Not this time, I'm happy because I have a real heir. The old man said.

"You know, playing chess is just my hobby. The boy said.

"I know, I don't want you to make it a profession anymore, my two sons are professional chess players, but I can't get the essence of chess, cough ....... After the old man finished speaking, he began to cough incessantly.

The boy smiled and did not speak.

"Ahem, can you do me a favor......" the old man said weakly.

The boy nodded.

"My ...... Under the bed...... There is a ...... Chest, with a ...... in it Something, you ...... You take it out. ”

"Good. The boy bent down and took out an old tin box from a milk crate under the bed.

"Hit ...... Turn it on. The old man's voice grew weaker and weaker.

The boy opened him and found a row of very old wooden chess pieces with a bank card on them.

"Ahem, ahem...... This...... This chess ...... Be...... It was when I was a child...... My father...... To give...... Give me a ...... Stalls...... The first pair of ...... bought Chess, it's also ...... The beginning of my career...... Though...... Not worth the money, but ...... But I hope to send ...... For you, and that bank card, which is ...... There's ...... in it One million deposits, I will also give him to you, just as you help me keep the custody fee of this chess game......" The old man's voice grew weaker and weaker.

"Didn't you give it to me, and what do you need to keep it...... the boy said.

The old man smiled, his smile froze gradually, and gradually, his hand fell.

"Old Yan ......" tears flowed from the young man's face.

The old man's family and the doctor all rushed in, and the doctor quickly checked the old man's body and tried to rescue him, and after a few minutes, the doctor shook his head sadly at the old man's family.

"Dad......!" came the cries of several people in the ward.

After a while, the old man's two sons wiped their tears, and they turned their heads to stare at the young man, as if the old man had been killed by him.

"What did my dad tell you, what did he leave for you!" the eldest son shouted viciously to the boy.

"Yes, I saw that my dad gave you a bank card, is there a lot of money in it. The second son also said sharply.

"Let me tell you, the old man only gave you the things verbally, and did not make a will, so you had better leave the things!" said the second daughter-in-law.

"That's it, you look like a poor ghost, and you have such a good relationship with the old man, you must want the old man's money, I tell you, I won't let you succeed. The eldest daughter-in-law looked at the young man and said sharply.

The boy smiled, but the tears on his face were still flowing, he opened the old chess, took out the bank card inside, and threw it back, the old man's family all desperately seemed to rush to pick it up, the boy took one last look at the old man, he smiled at him, as if to say goodbye to him, and then the boy took the old chess and walked out of the hospital.

This young man's name is Ji Jinru.
