Chapter 61: Returning Home

Three days later, Lin Yu finished the exam for the second professional course, and taking advantage of the two-day weekend break, Lin Yu decided to accompany his wife to fulfill her unfulfilled wish.

Speaking of which, Madame's hometown is actually not far from Yangcheng, it is within the same province, and it is estimated that it is about 100 kilometers according to navigation. The driver told them that if the road conditions were good, it would take more than two hours to get there. Mrs. realized that it was easy to go back to her hometown by herself, but since she came out of Yangcheng to work hard, it seems that she has never gone back.

This time the housekeeper did not come, according to the lady's statement, he asked him to deal with some property matters, although the lady did not say it explicitly, but Lin Yu knew after a little thought that the housekeeper must be helping the lady deal with the inheritance issue. Madame is now completely convinced that her time is short, and she still has a large amount of property and no children to inherit the inheritance, so what to do with it is also a problem that she needs to solve during her lifetime.

Madame's discharge from the hospital did not go so smoothly, both the housekeeper and Dr. Wang persuaded her many times, although continuing to receive treatment may not be able to achieve much good results, but giving up completely is equivalent to the last glimmer of hope. But once Madame made up her mind, she would not waver anymore, maybe because of Lin Yu's words, or maybe Madame could feel that her body was getting worse day by day, and she didn't want to waste her last life on a hospital bed.

The housekeeper was not there, and the responsibility of taking care of the lady fell on Lin Yu's head, Lin Yu felt a lot of pressure at first, after all, the lady was seriously ill at this time, and if something happened on the road, it would be difficult for him to explain to the housekeeper. But fortunately, according to his observations, the side effects of his wife's chemotherapy have passed, and she did not show any other discomfort except for a slightly tired look on her face.

After driving for about an hour, the driver parked the car at a rest stop on the highway, and Lin Yu helped his wife to eat something in the store, but his wife didn't seem to have much appetite, so she only stopped after eating a bite or two. Lin Yu noticed a trace of anxiety in his wife's eyes, and it seemed that he wanted to return to his hometown early and see his long-lost partner again.

Madame didn't tell Lin Yu too much information, just said that the person she wanted to meet was her childhood sweetheart's friend, so Lin Yu naturally didn't ask too much, but from Madame's current performance, it can be inferred that that person is indeed very important to her.

Lin Yu sped up to finish his food, and after returning to the car with his wife, he asked the driver to leave immediately. The driver asked inexplicably, "Don't you need to rest any more?" I see that Madame seems to be a little tired. ”

Without waiting for Lin Yu to answer, the lady, who had been silent all the way, took the lead in speaking, "I'm fine, let's go immediately, try to drive as fast as possible!"

The driver answered twice in a row, and the high-end Rolls-Royce sedan sped out of the rest area.

The inside of the car was very quiet, and there was no music, neither Lin Yu nor the driver dared to speak without permission, for fear of affecting his wife's rest. In fact, Madame was also napping most of the time, Lin Yu felt that it should be because Madame didn't sleep well last night, so she kept dozing all the way.

In the eyes of others, Madame should be in a peaceful state at this time, much better than when she was in the hospital, suffering from the side effects of chemotherapy. But in addition to seeing this, Lin Yu will inevitably aim at the number above his wife's head, and today it shows 23.

Maybe no one can understand Lin Yu's feeling at this time, seeing a life in a state of constant countdown, which will decrease by one number every day that passes, just like a switch with a timer set, once the set time is up, this switch will be turned off forever. As a bystander, witnessing all this with his own eyes had to make Lin Yu feel a little cruel.

When Lin Yu was distracted, the car suddenly shook violently, and his wife slowly opened her eyes at this time.

"I'm sorry, madam, I've gotten off the highway now, and this mountain road is a bit difficult to walk," the driver saw the startled lady in the rearview mirror, and quickly said apologetically.

However, Madame's attention was not on the potholes on the mountain road, but on the increasingly desolate and beautiful scenery on both sides of the road, "This place is still the same as before, it hasn't changed after so long," Madame sighed from the bottom of her heart, and a slight smile appeared on her face.

In Lin Yu's view, the surrounding environment can indeed be described as beautiful mountains and rivers, the gurgling water and a few pieces of red blooming on the mountainside in the distance, although there is no artificial modification, but there is an irresistible simple beauty. "Here, it's really beautiful," Lin Yu exclaimed.

Madame nodded slightly, in fact, for her, whether the scenery is beautiful or not is not the most important thing, what makes her even more pleased is that the grass, trees, mountains and rivers here seem to be exactly the same as in her childhood. When the Rolls-Royce swayed left and right on the winding mountain road, what Mrs. saw were all pictures of her childhood, the broken bridge on the creek, and the wooden house on the top of the mountain, all of which carried too many memories of herself.

"In the past, I used to walk this mountain road to go to elementary school every day, and at that time it was still a yellow mud road, but now it is much better, and it has been built into a concrete road," the closer I got to the mountain village where my wife was born, the more excited my wife became, and the tired look on her face had long disappeared without a trace.

Lin Yu smiled on her face, she didn't know what to answer, but Madame didn't mean to wait for him to answer at all, her eyes became more and more blurred when she looked around, as if she was caught in her distant memories...

On the road, several farmers with hoes on their backs heard the sound of a whistle and consciously stepped aside, and when they found a luxury car passing by, their faces invariably showed surprise, and they began to point at the back of the luxury car.

Lin Yu saw this scene through the car window, maybe those farmers didn't know the Rolls-Royce logo, but the spirit of the luxury car itself was enough for them to know that the cost of this car was definitely expensive. Maybe what they are talking about now is how such a rich person came back from the village, Lin Yu thought silently in his heart.

The farmer's reaction Mrs. didn't notice at all, or maybe she was often pointed at by passers-by when she rode in this kind of luxury car, and Mrs. had already subconsciously filtered out this behavior. A buffalo appeared in the rice field in front of her, it was being driven by the farmer to plough the field round by circle, both the buffalo and the farmer were stained with a lot of muddy water, the lady looked at this scene with great interest, she remembered that when she first saw Zhou Shan, she was sitting on an ox cart...
