Chapter 141: Red
After a while, Ding Dong tugged at the corner of my clothes and pointed to the outside of the fence: "Sister Xiao Jiang, there are foreigners there." β
I looked in the direction he was pointing, and it seemed to be a figure, but it flashed by, as if it were a hallucination.
I didn't care, I continued to water the flowers, thinking that after Ding Dong had to adapt to the life of the city, I couldn't help but have to explain a few words: "After the New Year, you will go to Cannes No. 1 Primary School, Uncle Gai and Sister Xiaojiang both graduated from there, you have to listen to the teacher, you have to get along with the children, you know?" β
There was no response, and I turned my head and suddenly found that Jingle Bell was nowhere to be seen.
Remembering what had just happened, I was suddenly seized by an inexplicable fear, and shouted the name of Jingle Bell and walked towards the fence.
When I saw the child standing by the fence, I rushed over, grabbed his shoulder, and unconsciously raised my voice: "What are you doing here?" β
He was so frightened that he was about to cry, and pouted: "That uncle said that he could take me to my mother." β
"What uncle?"
Xu was afraid that I wouldn't believe it, but the child opened his palm, and inside was a small photo.
Jingle Toddler, who had just learned to walk, walked towards his mother, and Aunt Maomao stood two meters away, opening her arms like an old hen to greet her cubs.
I was stunned and pulled the corner of my clothes: "Sister Xiaojiang, who is that uncle, why does he have a photo of his mother?" β
Back in the living room, Gai Nie took out a stack of photos from a brown paper bag and held them up one by one for Ding Dong to recognize.
I didn't know what was going on at first, but when Ding Dong pointed to a blonde foreigner and said it was this uncle, Gai Nie gave him a look and asked Ah Biao to take the child upstairs to play for a while.
When Gai Nie held my shoulders and stared into my eyes, I finally realized the seriousness of the matter, and my heart trembled, and I couldn't help but ask him, "Something's wrong, isn't it?" β
He nodded, and picked up the photo that Ding Dong had just identified: "This person's code name K, the American Red Murderer, brutally murdered eleven members of his family five years ago, including his two-year-old daughter, who escaped from prison last year and is the most wanted person in the FBI." β
I took a deep breath: "Is it related to Gui Yaoming?" β
"Originally, I didn't plan to tell you, because Zhou Yang's side has handled it almost in the past few days."
I suddenly remembered something: "Is it because of this K that I don't go to the supermarket?" β
Gai Nie put away the photo: "Well, this person is scheming, and he escaped by luck when Zhou Yang led people to round him up." He was wounded, I thought ......"
"You thought he must have found a place to hide, at least it would be a long time before he dared to appear, who knew that he would appear here blatantly, didn't he?"
Gai Nie nodded: "It's good that you and Dingdong are fine......"
I hugged his waist and said sullenly: "Gui Yaoming is really powerful, such a perverted killer has become his staff, I am worried that you are in danger." β
Gai Nie was silent, tightly wrapped around me, and after a few seconds he spoke: "Don't worry, he won't be arrogant for long. If my guess is correct, he should find a way to contact Gui Yaoming, and we can just catch them all. β
"I'm worried about grandma, and Xiaohua, Gui Yaoming's person is extremely vicious, I'm afraid of ......"
"I've already arranged it, if K dares to go, I promise that he will not return."
Because of K's appearance, I was restless all day, although Gai Nie sent bodyguards to guard the hospital, but I still didn't feel at ease, and I had to call Ah Biao every hour to ask about the situation over there.
I slept until I was woken up by the phone call in the middle of the night, I struggled to sit up, and was pressed back into the quilt by Gai Nie, who woke up earlier: "It's cold, I'll answer." β
The phone call was from Ah Biao, saying that the old lady was awake and asked us to hurry over.
Gai Nie and I rushed to the hospital non-stop, and when we entered the ward, we saw my grandmother sitting on the edge of the bed, taking small sips of water under Ah Biao's care.
I called out to my grandmother in disbelief, she looked up, saw that it was me, and smiled weakly: "Go and discuss with the doctor for discharge, and if I go back to sleep, I will be paralyzed." β
She was joking, but I burst into tears and ran over to hug her: "You're scared me to death, you're scared to death......"
She hugged me slowly: "Fool, I'm just too tired to sleep for a few more days." Tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve, and you really want to leave my old woman in the hospital. Hey, how did I find out that after you followed that stinky boy of Gai Nie, you became more and more unconscionable. β
I came back from the shock and hurriedly let go of her, checking her face and her heartbeat: "Where are you uncomfortable, where are you hurting, do you know who I am?" β
Grandma pushed me away: "Come on, you're an obstetrician and gynecologist, don't use the same way you deal with pregnant women." I'm so sober ......"
I cried again and hugged her again: "It's great that you're okay, it's great that you're okay." β
Grandma was at a loss by me, and shouted at Gai Nie: "Stinky boy, you are still young, why don't you come and pull your wife away, you want to suffocate me?" β
Gai Nie walked over with a smile: "Grandma, are you really okay?" β
Grandma snorted: "It's okay, it's just that I slept too long and my body was numb." This man is old, the engine is aging, and he strikes from time to time, and I can't help it. You're still young, aren't you? β
At this time, Director Wang came in to check his grandmother's body with sleepy eyes, in fact, he was very hard, since his grandmother's accident, Gai Nie asked him to be in the hospital 24 hours a day, and he almost slept in the office.
I thought to myself, for the Chinese New Year, I should send him a big red envelope.
After the inspection, Director Wang asked some questions as usual, then took off his stethoscope and looked at us: "Borrow a step to speak." β
My heart sank suddenly, could it be that grandma is the legendary return to the light?
I looked at Gai Nie and was about to take a step when I heard my grandmother's voice: "Why do you want to take a step to speak?" I have the right to know my condition and say it to my face. β
"Grandma." I shouted, "You just woke up, you must be hungry, let Ah Biao go get you something to eat......"
She interrupted me and took my hand: "I'm not hungry, girl, I know what you think." You have been told since you were a child that birth, old age, sickness and death are natural laws that no one can violate. I used to worry about you, worried about your uncle, but now that I see that you are all married and have a career, I have nothing to worry about, your grandfather and your father, no one has to take care of them. The two big men, there is no woman around, and they must not even have a good meal. β
The tears that I had finally stopped suddenly welled up again, and Gai Nie hugged me and gestured to Director Wang.
Director Wang nodded: "Preliminarily, it is still the problem at the beginning, and the liver is seriously damaged. Judging from the current medical conditions in China, there is no way at all. β
Gai Nie hugged me tightly: "Is it okay to have a liver transplant?" β
Director Wang paused: "This is a good way, I have also discussed it with my teacher, but the old grandmother is old, so don't use the knife easily." Also, there is a shortage of liver sources in China at present, and I am afraid that ......"
I suddenly became excited: "Cut my liver to grandma, I'm in good health, it's fine." β
Grandma grabbed me: "What nonsense, who wants your liver." Life and death are fate, I don't force it. Xiao Nie, I know you're good for grandma, but don't waste it, grandma has lived so far, it's enough, really. β
I hugged her: "Old lady, what nonsense are you talking about, you want to live a long life, you have to help my uncle take care of the child, and you have to help me take care of the child." If you think about it again, see how I clean you up. β
Her eyes turned red all of a sudden, and she lowered her head and did not speak.
Gai Nie asked Director Wang: "Can you do this, do detoxification treatment first, and drain as much as you can." A new drug is being developed abroad, and it is estimated that it will not come out until a year later. β
Director Wang nodded: "I'll do my best." β
The next thing is to be discharged, the hospital is Gainie, Director Wang naturally can't say anything, but he just explained that he had to return to the hospital in time as soon as he felt unwell, and prescribed some medicine.
Knowing that Xiaohua also lives here, grandma naturally wants to go and have a look.
In the middle of the night, we originally planned to just take a look outside and leave, but the director of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology said that Xiaohua's current situation was resolutely not discharged.
Who knew that Xiaohua was awake, as if she had cried, her eyes were red, and she hugged me and cried when she saw me.
I talked to my grandmother for a long time, and Xiaohua finally squirmed and told us that she was having a nightmare.
No need to ask, in the nightmare that made her wake up in the middle of the night and cry, the actor must be Gui Yaoming.
Before I came here, Gai Nie and I told my grandmother everything about Gui Yaoming, and naturally we didn't dare to hide that bastard poisoned her.
Grandma was quite calm, but when she knew about Aunt Maomao, she sighed for a while, saying that our Jiang family owed Aunt Maomao.
So grandma also knew that her father had left important evidence to Xiaohua, and she also knew the perverted relationship between Xiaohua and Gui Yaoming, so she gently patted Xiaohua's back at this moment: "Okay, okay, dreams are all reversed, he can't bother you anymore." Xiaohua, your days are still long, don't give up. Look at my grandmother, Gui Yaoming poisoned me, and the doctor said that my liver was seriously damaged, and I didn't know if I could live until tomorrow, didn't I give up? β
Xiaohua didn't know about Gui Yaoming's poisoning of her grandmother, I didn't plan to tell her, it's true that she loves Gui Yaoming, and it's true that she likes grandma, I don't want her to be embarrassed, I don't want her to feel guilty.
It's me who should be guilty, and it's us who pulled the innocent her into all this mess.
Xiaohua jumped up when she heard this, looked at me, and asked sharply, "What?" Gui Yaoming poisoned his grandmother, Xiao Jiang, why didn't you tell me? That brute, how could he poison his grandmother, is he still human? β
Grandma looked at me with hindsight: "She...... Doesn't she know? β
Xiaohua lifted the quilt and was about to get out of bed: "Beast, pigs and dogs are not as good, I'll go to him to settle accounts." β
We hurriedly pressed her, persuaded for a long time, she finally quieted down, but the tears clicked away: "It's me who is sorry for you, it's all my fault, it's all my fault......"
What I'm most afraid of is that she is like this, it will do more harm to her recovery, and she will drive herself crazy.
When the east showed the whiteness of the fish's belly, the little flower finally fell asleep in our comfort.
Looking at her skinny little face, my heart tugged.
I'm so scared, I'm afraid she won't be able to get out of the quagmire that Gui Yaoming brought her, I'm afraid she will do stupid things, I'm afraid she will go crazy one day.
After leaving the hospital, my grandmother was not in a hurry to go home, but asked us to take her to see Aunt Maomao.
I remember the first time I saw my father after his accident, he was pulled out of this drawer that was designed to freeze corpses, he was covered in a thick layer of ice, and his eyebrows and hair were all white.
When Aunt Maomao was pulled out, that memory hit my heart again, and I subconsciously buried it in Gai Nie's arms.
Grandma suddenly fell to her knees, and Ganie and I were scared to pull her.
She choked up: "Don't pull me, this is what we owe you Aunt Maomao, our Jiang family, we can't pay it off in this life." β
She just went through those, her body bones are not good, it's cold here, she is still kneeling, and then kneeling out of something wrong, but what can I do.
Besides, if you want to kneel, I should kneel.
Grandma wiped a handful of tears and looked at Aunt Maomao: "Maomao, your kindness to our Jiang family cannot be repaid in this life, if there is a next life, I will make you a cow and a horse." I know that you are a good woman, but you are not blessed. β
We all know that Aunt Maomao likes her father, but her father really just seems to treat her as a sister.
Once I asked him why he didn't like Aunt Maomao, and whether he disliked people who didn't go to college and didn't have a formal job.
Dad smiled and touched my head, saying that he had only mother in his heart in his life, and he could no longer pretend to be another woman.
Dad is affectionate, I know, he has never touched any woman in the end.
If their mother is still here, they must be a couple who love each other very much.
It's a pity that my mother left early, and my father's heart was also taken away by her.
When I came out of the funeral home, my grandmother asked me how Aunt Maomao's aftermath was arranged, how her children were settled, and if she had any relatives.
I answered her one by one, and when she learned that Jingle Bell had been picked up by me, she was very relieved, repeating over and over again that I had grown up.
In fact, where I grew up, it was Gai Nie who thought thoughtfully.
When I returned to the old house, I saw Jiang An standing at the door with the child and Xiaozhen in his arms.
I got out of the car with my grandmother in my arms, and Jiang An came over with the child in my arms and wanted to hand the child to my grandmother.
The old lady couldn't wait to stretch out her hand, and when she was about to hold the child, she suddenly retracted and said, "I just came back from the hospital, my body is not clean, don't disturb the child." β
Xiao Zhen smiled: "Mom, it's okay, this is your grandson, you hug it." β
Grandma hesitated, took the child over, and lowered her head to take a closer look.
The child is asleep, it looks pink, not to mention grandma, even I can't put it down every time I hug it.
I don't know if it's because I've been asleep for too long, but my grandmother is still in good spirits, and she has been sitting in the living room with the child in her arms, but it was Xiao Zhen who yawned and went upstairs to sleep under our persuasion.
There were only four people left in the living room, and the grandmother kept holding the child's little hand, and spoke to Jiang An with great feeling: "Seeing that you have a wife and children, I am also relieved." Xiao Zhen is a good person, you must be good to her and don't bully her. β
Jiang An nodded: "Don't worry." β
Grandma looked at me and Gai Nie again: "You two are not too young, and when your work stabilizes after the New Year, you will also have a child." β
I agreed with Gaynie, and this was originally within our plan.
Because we were worried about Ding Dong and going to the airport to pick up Gaiqian's family, we sat for a while and left.
When I got home, I didn't wake up yet, and seeing that I was tired, Gai Nie asked me to go to sleep.
Lying in bed but can't sleep, it's a good thing that grandma wakes up, at least we can be together for the New Year. Because I'm scared, I'm afraid it's the last Spring Festival we've ever had together as a family.
After the New Year, Aunt Maomao's funeral should also be put on the agenda, and Ah Biao has been looking for Dingdong's father, but there has been no news. I always feel uneasy when I mention this person, he abused Aunt Maomao like that at the beginning, and I am still afraid when I think about it.
It stands to reason that with his temperament, he knows that Aunt Maomao died for our business, and it is impossible for him to disappear quietly, he should try his best to find us for benefits.
And on the side of the Akabane Gate, as long as the strong thing doesn't bear fruit for a day, Gai Nie will be chained there, I don't want him to be so tired.
After lunch, we set off to the airport to meet Shang Ruyu and Gai Zijin, knowing that Shang Ruyu was very happy that her grandmother woke up, the two of them are in a good relationship now, and she didn't shed tears when her grandmother was in a coma.
The topic naturally returned to Gui Yaoming, and Shang Ruyu was worried: "Why is the above investigation so slow, didn't you hand in all the evidence that should be submitted, why didn't the results be announced for a long time?" Don't make a bamboo basket empty, in the past ten years, how huge Gui Yaoming's relationship network in the Provincial Government Department is, you won't be unclear, right? β
Gai Nie sighed: "Don't worry, for so many years, he has been obscure and diligent for the people, but in fact, he has done a lot of bad things behind his back, and all the beautiful wives under him hate him to the bone." We all got good friends with him. β
Shang Ruyu snorted coldly: "It's a joke to be a doctor of psychology from a famous university, it's really naΓ―ve to believe in the liar's theory of collecting yin and supplementing yang." β
I glanced at each other with Gai Zijin, and at the same time silently made up some plots in martial arts, and then smiled.
The lid is now a lot more lively, and when I see it, I will call my little aunt, which is very compatible with Ding Dong, and I have played together when I return to the old house.
Shang Ruyu naturally wanted to go to talk to her grandmother, and the two brothers were busy killing chickens and fish in the patio.
In the kitchen was the smell of all kinds of mushroom soup that my grandmother had brought back from the countryside and put in the refrigerator to keep it fresh.
I beckoned, and Gai Nie came over and asked me if I was tired from lying at the window.
I helped him wipe his sweat distressedly, and couldn't help complaining: "It's okay to ask Xiao Qi to send it outside for someone to get it, why do you have to do it yourself, I'm tired of looking at it." β
He laughed and took the opportunity to bite me: "You don't know, when I was a child, we were scared when I saw my dad killing chickens, once the three of us brothers went camping, and a poisonous snake was about to bite me, the eldest brother shot a flying knife, and the second brother grabbed the snake and shook it...... Later, I always suspected that the snake was not killed by my eldest brother at all. β
I couldn't help laughing: "Stunned by the second brother? β
He laughed, and suddenly felt a little lonely: "It would be nice if the eldest brother was still here." β
I buried my face in his chest: "Fortunately, Zijin is still there, and besides, she is so good with Jiang Dong." β
Gai Nie didn't want this lonely mood to affect me, so he told me why his eldest brother was called Di Xiuren.
His eldest brother has been weak and sick since he was a child, Shang Ruyu believes in Buddhism, and met a high monk by chance, saying that he would give the child another name to keep him safe.
The monk's original surname is Di, and because of fate, he named the child Di Xiuren.
Jiang Dong is also back, since he was covered by the lid, he has not refused this eldest lady, although the two of them are still a little twisted, but the relationship is good, greasy and crooked, leaning together to wash fruits.
It is gratifying that after Shang Ruyu knew about the relationship between the two people, he did not particularly object, and even called me privately to ask me if Jiang Dong could pass the exam, and said that his work in the nightclub was not very good, and he asked Gai Nie to arrange it.
I didn't expect Li Muyin to bring Li Muzi here, and when Xiao Qi told me, I thought he was joking with me.
I really saw the brother and sister standing at the door with a large bag of New Year's goods, and I suddenly felt very uncomfortable.
Li Muzi looked at me timidly: "Yiyi, my brother and I are lonely, can I celebrate the New Year with you." β
As if afraid that I would not agree, Li Muyin hurriedly added: "After eating the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, we will leave, and we will not disturb you." β
Li Muzi nodded with red eyes: "Well, we will leave after eating, there is no one at home to cook, and the servants have all gone home for the New Year." β
What can I say, I remember the day in the psychiatric hospital where they protected me, and I couldn't bear to kick them out.
As soon as he heard that I agreed, Li Muzi suddenly ran over and hugged me, and cried: "Yiyi, I'm really afraid that you will kick me out, we are good sisters, right?" Ah Shu has forgiven me, and you have forgiven me too, haven't you? β
I laughed helplessly: "Yes, I forgive you." β
Unexpectedly, Li Muzi knelt in front of his grandmother all of a sudden, begging for his grandmother's forgiveness with tears in his eyes, nothing more than his father's business.
In fact, I kept thinking about it, who is to blame for Dad's matter?
Gui Yaoming must be the culprit, Shang Xiaohui and Ah Sheng are naturally inseparable, although they act as scapegoats, but they do play the role of accomplices. And they have nothing to do with Di Xiuren's death.
As for Gui Chenxi and Li Muzi, they didn't know about Gui Yaoming's conspiracy, Gui Chenxi has always obeyed his mother's orders, as long as Shang Xiaoyi said it, he has always obeyed unconditionally.
As for Li Muzi, a large part of her situation is because she is afraid that Gui Chenxi will return to me, so she wants to hurt me with my father's affairs.
Grandma sighed, pointed to the photo of her father hanging on the wall, and choked up: "You go and kowtow three times in front of your Uncle Jiang and beg for his forgiveness." β
Li Muzi stood up, walked to the portrait of his father, and knelt down.
Li Muyin stood behind her, reminded her to make incense, and then asked her: "Didn't you say that you remembered an important clue and wanted to make up for it?" β
Li Muzi seemed to remember this, turned his head and asked Gai Nie: "Do you have any photos of your sister Biyao?" β
Gai Nie shook his head and asked what was wrong.
Li Muzi took out his mobile phone, clicked it a few times, and held it up to show us: "It's this woman, I have seen her photo in the drawer of Gui Yaoming's study." I think we may have overlooked a very important detail. β
My heart tugged at once: "What? β
