Chapter 43: The Human Heart
"Old man, do you remember where your home is?" Chu Yun said to Jiang Nan.
"Remember, it's near the Higashiyama Bridge. Jiang Nan nodded, and then said.
"Okay, then let's go, you lead the way. Chu Yun took a taxi from the side of the road, and the two of them went up.
"Jiang Nan" sat in the taxi, she grabbed her sleeve very nervously.
"Don't be nervous, old gentleman, I'll be there later. Chu Yun smiled, and then said to Jiang Nan next to him.
"Hmm. Jiang Nan nodded.
After the driver heard the conversation between the two, he felt his scalp tingle and broke out in a cold sweat.
"Didn't I meet a ghost?"
"Why does this young man call that little girl old gentleman?"
And the little girl's voice was really old, like an old man in his seventies and eighties. ”
"It's over, I knew I shouldn't have come out in the middle of the night to pick up the work. ”
The driver was so frightened that his face turned pale, his palms were full of cold sweat, and the whole person was nervous.
After more than half an hour, the taxi slowly stopped at an alley entrance.
"To ...... It's here. The taxi driver swallowed hard, and then said tremblingly.
"Sir, let's get out of the car. Chu Yun glanced at Jiang Nan, and then said with a smile.
The two slowly walked down from the taxi, and Chu Yun just took out his wallet and was about to give money.
The taxi ran away with a shadow of smoke, leaving only the exhaust of the car all the way.
"Whew...... I'm really the aftermath of the disaster, hahahaha........." The taxi driver shouted happily in the car as if he was crazy.
"........." Chu Yun and Jiang Nan glanced at each other, and then laughed at the same time.
This taxi driver is really talented!
But I have to say that he is indeed quite witty.
The old gentleman took Chu Yun around and around, and finally walked to a house.
Very simple bungalow, looking very shabby.
The old gentleman walked to the door, and he slowly stretched out, and his right hand wanted to knock on the door.
But in the end, he just sighed helplessly.
"Forget it, let's go. The old gentleman sighed deeply, and then said to Chu Yun.
"Since you're here, why don't you go in?" Chu Yun shook his head, and then said.
"I didn't know how to face her, and I said that I would stay with her for the rest of my life, but I ........." the old gentleman left painful tears on his face.
"Don't leave yourself with any regrets, old man, go and meet her. Chu Yun still shook his head, and then said.
The old gentleman pondered for a while, and finally walked to the door, where he knocked gently.
There was a creak, and an old woman opened the door with a cane.
The old woman wore sunglasses and looked very old.
"Who?"
The old woman's voice was very weak, she didn't look very well, and she had coughed violently several times.
The old gentleman wept slowly, and he stood there without speaking.
"Is it Xiaochao? I've already told you, I will never give you the house, you better leave quickly. The old woman's voice was a little cold, and she tried to close the door when she had said this.
"Shuhua...... It's me. The old gentleman's old voice came out of Jiang Nan's mouth.
"Old... Zhou?" When the old woman heard this, a cloudy tear slowly fell from her eyes.
"Where have you been these days, why haven't you come home?" I thought you were .........," the old woman burst into tears, her voice trembling.
"............" The old gentleman did not answer, he just remained silent for a long time and bowed his head silently.
In fact, he has been attached to Jiang Nan's body in the past few days, and he has secretly gone home to see it a few times.
It's just that every time he didn't let the old woman find out, he just stayed quietly in the corner and watched her.
Just take a look at it.
I hid in the night, in the light, just to see you more.
Just one glance is enough.
The old gentleman was full of tears, and he kept wiping his tears with his hands.
"How can you see enough? You can't see enough in your life. ”
"I've seen you for seventy years, and I've seen you grow old from your slim and slim state. ”
"But so what? I still want to keep watching you, and keep going like that. ”
"Even if I'm dead, I want to continue to look at you, until I see the next life, the next life........."
"Because of you, it's really beautiful........."
In fact, the old gentleman has a lot of unspoken words in his heart.
But he didn't say anything more, he just stared at the old woman blankly, his eyes unblinking.
"Old Zhou, where have you been? Why don't you speak?" the old woman looked anxious, her eyes full of tears.
Chu Yun stood in the corner, he looked at the old couple silently, and said nothing.
At this moment, a noisy sound suddenly came from outside.
A large group of people cheered and rushed into the room.
At the head was a bespectacled young man with a stick in his hand and a fierce look on his face.
"Old woman, hurry up and hand over the house to me! Otherwise, I'll make you look good!" Zhang Chao's face was full of viciousness, and he stared at the old woman viciously.
"Xiaochao, the house really can't be given to you. This is the brainchild of my life and Lao Zhou, and here are our lifelong memories. And the two of us have already discussed that we will donate the house when we die. When the old woman heard Zhang Chao's voice, she looked very nervous.
"Don't mention that stubborn old guy to me, I'll be angry when I mention him!" Zhang Chao heard the old woman's words, and he slammed the stick into the TV next to him.
"Bang!" sounded, and the TV was smashed to pieces.
The old woman was startled by the voice.
"How can you say that about Lao Zhou? You must know that the money you pay for your school is given to you by Lao Zhou, as well as your living expenses, your food and clothing, all of which he gave you by saving money!" the old woman blushed, and she said very angrily.
"Since you two have already helped me so much, why don't you help me anymore? I really need money now, you two have no children and no daughters, and no one will inherit the house after you die, why can't you give me the house?
"This house isn't worth much, so why don't you hold on to it?" the old woman sighed deeply.
"I've got the news, this place is going to be demolished soon, and then I can get rich overnight!haha........." Zhang Chao laughed twice, he looked at the old woman greedily.
