In order to take care of Grandpa Chen, Cui Can refused the professor's invitation and did not participate in this archaeological trip. As for Chen Jiu, he seconded the security personnel under Cui Can, and asked them to help investigate Qin Liu's purpose. Because since that time, Qin Liu appeared in his office several times, although he never said for any purpose, but Chen Jiu was not at ease with him.

Just when the young couple was so busy every day that they could only see each other in the few hours in bed, Old Man Chen's life also came to an end.

When the first snow fell in the capital, the old man also fell. Looking at such a strong old man, who was tortured by illness and lost his former brilliance, Cui Can and Chen Jiu both felt distressed.

All the children and grandchildren of the Chen family rushed back, even the old eleven who was abroad also rushed back. Although the old man's posthumous affairs have been arranged a long time ago, and there is also a will, but when the old man is dying, the atmosphere of the Chen family still seems a little tense and awkward. Because a moment ago, the two of them would have a quarrel because of some disagreement, and their faces were red and their necks were thick, and they turned around in front of the old man's hospital bed, and they were angry and respectful. This scene made Cui Can feel a little disappointed in these relatives of the Chen family, and he completely lost the mood to associate with them.

"Grandpa, what do you want to eat?" In order to take care of the old man, Cui Can took a leave of absence and stayed by his side. She has always been taking care of her in the hospital, although other people also want to be filial or please the old man, but the old man refused. At this time, the only people who can make the old man smile are Chen Jiu, the couple and the great-grandchildren.

"I'm not hungry, come bright. Tell grandpa, how are you and Jiu'er? Like my grandson? The old man beckoned and let Cui Can sit at the head of his bed. For the sons and grandsons who came over because they were sober. The old man didn't even look at it.

Cui Can didn't know what had happened to the Chen family, but he knew the old man's preference for Chen Jiu, and his love for his house. And she also likes this open-minded and wise old man, and treats him as her grandfather, so watching him lying on the hospital bed, his eyes cloudy but looking at herself gently, makes her feel only distress and reluctance. The old man's time is running out. But she still cares about herself, so that she really doesn't know how to express her feelings. You must know that the old man cares so much about her marriage to Chen Jiu, she may consider marrying him earlier. Let the old man have a few more happy days. "I'm doing well, and I like my grandfather's nine grandsons."

was pleased by Cui Can's answer, and the old man pulled the corners of his mouth, but unfortunately he really had no strength. It's hard to even pull the corners of your mouth. The sorrow of the twilight of the hero suddenly rose in his heart. A cloudy tear ran down his sideburns and into his hair and ears. "That's good, love him well, and accompany him well. Grandpa was sorry for him. ”

Chen Jiu, who was sitting on the other side, paused, looking at the old man's expression, and didn't know whether he was sad or relieved for a while. Cui Can glanced at him suspiciously, but didn't ask anything. Instead, he nodded in the old man's pleading eyes, "Grandpa, don't worry, I will accompany him for the rest of my life." ”

The old man grabbed Cui Can's hand with satisfaction. He turned his head again and grabbed Chen Jiu's outstretched hand. Brought two young and powerful hands together. "Grandpa is relieved."

Chen Jiu looked at Cui Can, then at his grandfather, and finally lowered his eyes. Although his glance didn't mean anything, Cui Can felt the sadness from him. Use the hand you are holding with him, gently touch his hand, and pass on your comfort.

Chen Jiu raised his eyes and glanced at her, pulled the corners of his mouth, and grabbed the little hand in his hand tightly. The old man's hand was on their hands, and he naturally felt their small movements, looked at his grandson with satisfaction, and then looked at his granddaughter-in-law, and the smile on his face was so satisfied.

"Dad, your body has improved, and the doctor wants you to rest more." Uncle Chen squeezed to Chen Jiu's side, and Third Uncle Chen stood behind Cui Can, nodding in agreement with the eldest brother's statement. "Yes, Dad, don't say so much. Let them solve their own affairs, don't worry about it. The body is just better, so it's better to rest more. ”

At this time, everyone present was looking forward to the old man's body for a few more years, which would be of great help to each of them.

Chen's father stood behind his son, his hands on his shoulders, looking at him and his daughter-in-law with satisfaction. Such a pair of sons and daughters-in-law are stronger than any number of sons and daughters-in-law. Chen Jiu can get the old man's connections, and his daughter-in-law can get the old man's love, which is enough to make those brothers and nephews jealous. It's just his other two sons, I hope they don't want to be happy with their relatives and enemies.

Old Man Chen's gaze swept over his son and daughter-in-law, as well as his daughter and son-in-law. This is your own descendant, so that your bloodline can be continued, your surname can be passed on, and your hopes can be pinned. At this moment, the old man seemed to be a little reluctant to leave this world.

"Dad, do you have anything to say to us?" A female voice made the old man think back from the prospect. Yes, I don't have much time left, so I have to arrange the future. That's what my daughter is for, right? While his consciousness was still clear, while he was not confused, he hurriedly arranged the things after his death. Otherwise, as soon as you close your eyes, these children will make brothers not like brothers, and sisters will not be like sisters for the sake of their own afterlife. Then his old face was lost in outer space.

"When I die, everything will come according to my will." The old man wanted to express his thoughts fluently, but he really didn't have the strength. After saying this, he was even more powerless. I gasped for a while, and slowly calmed down my breath under the nervous gaze of my children. "If anyone is not convinced, then it is no longer my child."

Although the old man wanted to finish this sentence strongly, it was a pity that his strength was too weak, if it weren't for his sharp eyes, I am afraid that his children would not have taken this sentence to heart.

The brothers looked at each other and did not speak again. It was only then that Aunt Chen approached her father and grabbed his father's hand with tears. "We know we're not going to make a fuss about your aftermath."

Or this daughter knows the old man's thoughts. Tell the old man's worries. She is not young anymore, although she is much younger than her brother, but she is also a grandmother. How do you not know the old man's thoughts? And who of the people present doesn't know the old man's thoughts? It's just that no one can say this, or they don't have a position to say it. Because they began to rush to inquire about the old man's will when the old man was still angry, and now that the old man said this to his face, how could they be embarrassed to say such things?

I looked at the grandchildren standing by the bed, the eldest was forty years old, and the youngest was only in his teens. These are his own grandchildren, and he has been in this life. The proudest thing is that I married a virtuous woman, and second, I have so many sons and grandchildren. Maybe they're not smart. Maybe they are not strong, maybe they will not surpass their own achievements, but they are their own grandchildren, and they are the continuation of their own lives. That's enough. As long as they are cautious. Then lying on your own merits can also live a rich life. That's enough.

Once again, his eyes fell on Chen Jiu and Cui Can, who were squeezed behind, and his most sorry grandson was Jiu'er. Fortunately, he married the daughter-in-law he wanted the most, and that's fine. With Cui Can's company, he can climb the peak and tide in his life, and this is what he wants. These two children, so capable, so smart. He is the smartest of all his grandchildren, and he will not be short of money in this life. Momentum - I left it to them, and that was enough.

After looking at all his children and grandchildren present again, the old man closed his eyes with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and the tears in the corners of his eyes flowed again. This time the old man's eyes never opened again, and after a while, a suppressed cry came from the ward, and soon the cry spread throughout the corridor.

This old man who has worked hard all his life, this old man who has enjoyed both difficulties and power, just closed his eyes. After a lifetime of this scenery in the reluctance and distress of his family, he can reunite with his wife with peace of mind. Chen Jiu's tears never flowed, but Cui Can knew his pain. Forcefully opened his clenched fist, and saw the flesh and blood blurred by his fingernails. Cui Can's tears couldn't be suppressed, he put his hand on his face and blew softly.

"If you want to cry, cry out, right?"

Chen Jiu looked at the hand that was held in Cui Can's hand, his vision blurred for a moment, and then he regained his clarity. He can't cry, he still has a lot to do, he doesn't have time to cry. He can't cry!

Cui Can felt distressed about his strength, gently took his hand and walked out of the ward, giving the room to the elders. The old man is gone, and this home is gone. Cui Can's mood is not much better than Chen Jiu's, not to mention that the old man's kindness to herself is so unforgettable to her, even if it is love for the house and Wu, it also moves her. Therefore, she was really sad for the old man's departure.

"I'm fine." Chen Jiu followed Cui Can out of the ward and left the group of people. His heart was a little more relaxed, and people seemed to be more energetic, so Cui Can's worries about him, he also knew.

The two hugged each other, listening to the crying from the house, Cui Can's tears also flowed. Chen Jiu patted her shoulder comfortingly, but his face turned up, blinked his eyes, and forced back the tears that were about to flow.

The old man's funeral was very solemn, and many leaders of the party and the state came to attend the funeral. The old man can be said to be glorious in life and glorious in death. But after the old man was buried, this painful and suppressed emotion finally broke out.

After the lawyer announced the old man's will, the conflict of the Chen family broke out. But in these things, it has nothing to do with Chen Jiu and Cui Can. Because in the old man's will, there is nothing left for Chen Jiu. In the words of the old man, he said that Chen Jiuqian has it, the momentum is there, the wife is there, and the children will not be far away. So he has nothing to leave for him, and there is nothing to mention in the will.

Although Chen Jiu did not have any expectations for such a will, and Cui Can did not either, Chen's father and Chen's mother felt unfair. It's just that the old man is dead, what else can they do? What's more, what the old man said is also true. At least in their opinion, these sons and nephews are the most wishful of Chen Jiu. After a few years in business, he became a well-known businessman in the country. became an official and had a promising yamen. His wife not only has money, but also life, and she only helps him in his career and does not drag him down. They only have one child left now, so when they think about it, they really have nothing to worry about.

"Tell me, are you satisfied with the old man's distribution?" Chen Lao Wu saw that everyone was silent after listening to the lawyer's reading, and he was unwilling to open his mouth. It's just that what he gets is Qi Shu's eyes, and the most of these eyes are condemnation. "What are you doing? Do you all see me like that? I'm just telling the truth, don't you think so? ”

Aunt Chen glared at the fifth daughter-in-law beside him, and she knew that her younger brother must have been picked up by her. "What did Dad say when he was dying? Were you not there? Besides, among these people, if you want to say that you are not satisfied, it will not come to you? ”

The old man's things are divided equally, and he doesn't have any favoritism for his son and daughter. Even the grandchildren also have something to share. To say, only Chen Jiu didn't leave anything. But how could the old man not give him something if he liked him? Or have these two already taken everything that belongs to them? Look at her sister-in-law, although this woman looks honest, she is a good one, how can she not look at the old man? Thinking about it this way, Chen Jiu and his wife may really not get any old man's things.

However, the old man's connections are more practical and precious than any foreign object. Although others have also obtained these connections, none of the men in this family have the same advantages as Chen Jiu. So what the future holds, Aunt Chen already knows in her heart. It seems that he still has to have a good relationship with his second brother and sister-in-law, which is his own dependence.

Aunt Chen's thoughts, many people are turning, and many people understand. But seeing that the old man gave all the good things to the eldest family, the other brothers were still a little unwilling. Just because he's the boss? Just because he has suffered? Just because he didn't grow up with his father since he was a child, he can get more things to compensate? And what about his sons? How do you still get more than your own children? How can such a distribution be considered fair? But thinking of what the old man said when he was dying, the brothers were always a little unwilling in their hearts. (To be continued.) )
