Chapter 223: The Meaning of the Agreement (2)
"Healer?"
The man raised an eyebrow, but he still didn't put down the book in his hand. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Study pressure?"
Xiao Yusheng shook his head. The man thought for a moment, "The problem of making friends?" ”
Xiao Yusheng shook his head again. The man looked back at the book until he turned a page, and he continued to ask.
"Family problems?"
Xiao Yusheng sighed, he got up and thanked the man. Very disappointed to evaluate the man, "You, do you think I'm only so superficial?" ”
The man was stunned, how big a child can be, usually come to him for trivial things or come to him to hide from domestic violence.
Perhaps, there is something wrong with this child.
He put down the book in his hand and hurriedly called back the child who had walked to the door. Finally he became serious, and Xiao Yusheng sat back on the sofa and stared at him.
The man's expression became more and more solemn, and the child's eyes were full of calmness. Generally, those who come in are either the kind that carefully hang their heads, or they look like they are self-cooked.
On closer analysis, all the actions of this child from the beginning of the year were out of caution. And the answers were all considered, especially the most refreshed his mind was the child's sentence, which was very clever for the child.
These eyes have a maturity that does not match his age, which only those who have experienced hardships have. Just like the calluses in his hands, his calluses also have a certain thickness.
"Did anything happen today?"
The man found imperceptible sadness in his countenance. This heart-wrenching pain cannot be concealed.
"My classmates are also close friends. Zhang Xin's grandfather suddenly lay down in the hospital. I wonder when I will be able to see him on his deathbed. ”
"Why on your deathbed?" The man can't understand the child's thinking, and he tries to think from the child's point of view. But he forgot, he didn't know him at all.
"Because, only when my grandfather was dying, what he said to me, I could listen to it word by word and engrave it in my heart." He choked up, his eyes unwavering.
"Because only what he entrusted to me when he was dying, and what he agreed with me, can I cherish for the rest of my life."
The man had nothing to say. Don't talk about a child, even an adult can't say such a thing and do what he wants. Man, it was the first time I had tasted such a heavy sense of frustration.
He asked a question very seriously, "When did you know that Uncle Zhang was dying?" ”
"Last week, he made the last promise he made with me."
"What agreement?"
"He wants me to be like a knight."
The child's lips squirmed, and he didn't know whether he should say it or whether it was necessary to say it.
The man understood, it was just a hope, and perhaps a better word had been given to the boy. He was silent for a moment, threw aside the book he was still holding in his hand, and took out his phone to call someone.
I asked two questions about Grandpa Zhang Xin. He put down his mobile phone and turned his face to Xiao Yusheng and said, "I also know Mr. Zhang, and sometimes he comes to write two brush words to chat or something." I didn't expect you to reassure him. ”
"In other words, did I kill my grandfather?"
Xiao Yusheng's dry throat made a difficult sound.
"No, you saved the old man. He has always been relieved that his stupid grandson is looking at the sky every day, which can be regarded as surviving. He was a good storyteller, and I sometimes listened to him like a child. He paused, "Tell me, kid, what's your name?" ”
"Hello, my name is Xiao Yusheng, your surname?" Xiao Yusheng stepped forward and stretched out his hand.
The man reached out and shook his hand, "Just call me an owl." ”
After that, the owl told Xiao Yusheng that the old man would leave without regrets in two days. Xiao Yusheng skipped class that day and rushed to the hospital. He held the old man's hand with tears in his eyes.
"Rain, go back to school. I'll be able to come back later. ”
The old man groaned in the twilight.
Xiao Yusheng wiped away her tears, "Grandpa, I'm afraid that it will be really late if I come later." You must have something else to tell me, I know. ”
"Hehe, if you know this, most likely Mr. Owl told you. I told Xiao Xin not to tell you. The old man sighed deeply, and he looked out the window, "It's a nice day. ”
"Yes, spring, the season when everything sprouts. The weather is not cool, and the flower bones are beginning to show their youthful and beautiful posture. ”
"So, please talk to your uncle and aunt. Scatter my ashes in the spring, bury me in this spring. ”
The old man thickened his voice, coughed lightly twice, and waved his hand at Xiao Yusheng to signal that he didn't need to be nervous. Next was the last time he made an agreement with Xiao Yusheng, and he seemed to have been brewing in his heart for a long time before he slowly spoke.
"Either way, you must keep the promise of the word 'promise'. In addition, Xiao Xin will entrust you to take care of him, he is a stunned young man, I think you can accompany him until the moment when you have the consciousness of becoming a person who stands up to the sky. ”
He asked heavily, "It's an agreement between men." All right? ”
Xiao Yusheng didn't think that he could abide by all the agreements, nor did he think that he really had the ability to bear the weight entrusted to him.
But...... But........ This is Grandpa Zhang's only wish, isn't this why he chose to come to his deathbed? He clenched his fists, his knuckles making a crisp sound, his closed eyelids squeezing together, and his jaw ached.
Compared to the constant struggle in the heart, the threads of countless thoughts are wound together. He chose to cut the mess quickly!
"Good! I accept! No matter what, I will do what is agreed, even if it is unscrupulous! ”
The old man laughed out with relief, still the same contemptuous smile. But in Xiao Yusheng's eyes, he is so gentle and kind.
The old man stroked Xiao Yusheng's head again, "Although I don't want you to say the last four words." But there is always a time when people have to do it, and even I can't blame you when the time comes. ”
These were the old man's last words. Xiao Yusheng was a little reluctant at the door of the room. He went home, rummaged through his room, found some money, and went to McDonald's to buy all the spicy chicken wings. He bit hard, venting the grief in his heart with food. I warm the cold brought by sadness with spicy heat.
He eats desperately! Stuff it hard in your mouth! Tears flowed continuously, but not sobbing.
It wasn't until his stomach was full that he realized that all the pocket money he had accumulated for a year had been eaten. It's all clean, but it's very refreshing and comfortable.
That night, the old man passed away without regret. On the day of the burial, Xiao Yusheng deceived his family into asking for travel expenses and secretly ran to see Zhang Xin's grandfather's funeral.
After that, Xiao Yusheng kept thinking of his grandfather's face. He often learned from his grandfather to tell Zhang Xin some interesting things, and tried his best to help him make up for it before the high school entrance examination.
Until the holidays, his dreams will reappear with his grandfather......
"Hmm~"
Xiao Yusheng slowly opened his eyes, he felt something in the corner of his eyes, and when he touched it, it was a cold tear, as if a line of clear tears had been formed and slid down on the pillow.
He got up and looked out the window at the still dark winter morning and muttered, "When the hell did I lose all these reasons for what I did.....
The voice was also full of sadness, and Zhang Xin's grandfather only showed a shallow smile on his indifferent face, which looked so contemptuous, but the lines were so soft when he looked closely.
To be continued......
