It was already more than ten o'clock in the evening when the two of them took a taxi home, and as soon as they turned the corner after walking, Chen Xi saw the car parked in front of his house. Waiting for the two people to come to the front, someone came out of the house, and the car lights were also on at this time.

"Mom." Chen Xi said.

The woman turned around and saw Chen Xi pulling a girl, who seemed to have seen her somewhere.

"Well, where have you been, you came back so late." Chen Xi's mother said.

"Oh, we went out for dinner." Chen Xi took the opportunity to glance at Song Li beside him, but he didn't see her nervousness.

"Hmm." Mom nodded.

"Mom, why don't you make a phone call when you come over?" Chen Xi glanced at the only driver in the car, and then asked.

"I came over to get something, knocked on the door to see if you weren't home, and I went in myself." Chen Xi's mother has the key here, but she respects her son and generally won't come over without permission.

"Oh," Chen Xi nodded, and once again grabbed the hand that was gradually getting cold from the palm of his hand, "Mom, this is Song Li, you saw it last time in the hospital." ”

Song Li's heartbeat became faster and faster, his face turned red, he felt like his ears were on fire, and the expression on his face was not very natural, "Hello, Auntie." ”

Chen Xi's mother looked at Song Li again, didn't speak, just nodded, "I'm leaving, you can go back." ”

The driver got out of the car and opened the door, Chen Xi's mother walked by Chen Xi's side and touched his arm, "You have lost a lot of weight recently, eat more, pay attention to rest, I will tell your father not to arrange so many things for you, and also, have time to see your brother more." ”

"I know."

As soon as the door was closed by the driver, Chen Xi heard her mother say, "What did you eat at night, there is such a big smell on your body, let Liu Xin send you to the laundry tomorrow." ”

The car left with a bang, Chen Xi went over to open the door disappreciably, and Song Li followed behind him, his lips a little pale.

A few days passed peacefully, Song Li's mother called again, grandpa was seriously ill, and her mother asked her to rush to her hometown as soon as possible. After hanging up her mother's phone, Song Li made a call to Chen Xi, but no one answered, she knew that he was busy. I got up and went back to the bedroom to pack some things briefly, booked a ticket on the Internet that was the fastest to go back to my hometown today, but it was expensive, and I took my documents and hurriedly went out. In the taxi, Song Li called Chen Xi a few more times, but still no one answered. When I arrived at the airport, completed the formalities, and waited in line for the security check with the ticket, Song Li called Liu Xin, Liu Xin said that Mr. Chen was in a meeting, and the plane went to Macau in the afternoon, and asked Song Li what was the matter, Song Li paused, thought about it or didn't say anything, hung up the phone and got on the plane.

Song Li caught up with the last time to see his grandfather, after 34 hours in the hospital, the doctor announced death, from the ward to the corridor of the hospital, many people knelt back and forth, Song Li knelt behind his mother, bowed his head and cried.

The following days were so busy that they didn't even have time to sleep, their parents and several other uncles and aunts, aunts and uncles kept vigil in the mourning hall, knowing that his mother was not in good health, Song Li had never dared to close his eyes, although he had followed several brothers and sisters back and forth during the day to buy things, book hotels, and contact the bus to be used on the day of the funeral.

At four o'clock in the morning, Song Li was so smoked by the smokers in the house that he couldn't stand it, and he went out of the house to breathe, so he remembered Chen Xi, went back and took out the mobile phone from the bag, pressed it twice and didn't respond, and found that the phone was out of power and turned off, and then rummaged through the bag, and the charger actually forgot to bring it. At this time, the eldest brother came in from the gate with a box of liquor, Song Li went over to ask for a charger, but it was not suitable for him, the eldest brother said that when the day dawned, those young people came and there was a little while, Song Li was helpless, squatted by the well, scooped up the water, and washed his face, but Song Li's son who was cold in the well was in pain, and he only stomped his feet when he stood in the yard.

When the sky was bright, his parents were to wear linen and filial piety according to the rules of his rural hometown, and Song Li cried behind the team, his head was clouded, and he felt that his body was fluttering, and it seemed that he was not his own. After the funeral, Song Li hurriedly hugged his mother, this time he came out for a long time, there was no condition to take insulin outside, and his mother only brought hypoglycemic drugs when she went out, and she cried and knelt for the past two days, day and night were reversed, and her meals were not punctual, her blood sugar was high and low, and her body couldn't hold it anymore.

The father walked out of the crowd, a little worried about his mother, but he couldn't leave for a while, so he had to wait for the first seven to pass, Song Li said that he would go to the county pharmacy to buy insulin, and his mother said that Song Li couldn't buy prescription drugs, and his father said that after lunch, he would find a car for Song Li to follow, and the two of them went to the county pharmacy to buy insulin, Song Li nodded, and now it can only be like this.

Foreign medical insurance can't be used, you can only pay for insulin at your own expense, your mother's cash is not enough, Song Li left her wallet, she took her mother's mobile phone, came out of the pharmacy and called Chen Xi, I don't know if it's because of the unfamiliar number, the other party still didn't answer, Song Li thought about whether to send him a text message or something, and his mother came out of the pharmacy.

"Who are you calling?" Mom handed the wallet to Song Li.

"No, no one." Song Li put the phone in his mother's bag.

"It's Chen Xi, does he know if you come here?" Mom asked again.

"Let's go, it's time for us to go back, the family is still in a hurry to use the car." Song Li gently took his mother's arm and took it to the car.

Mom looked at Song Li and didn't speak.
