Chapter 16: Orphans and Widows
Chen Jun's eyes stared at Wang Hui's face, full of love, but he couldn't say a word, just looked at Wang Hui like this, Wang Hui kept stroking his face with Chen Jun's hand, and whispered softly in his mouth, talking about the best time the two had together, as well as the family of the two and a pair of lovely children, Wang Hui said with tears in her eyes.
The family members standing next to them listened to the exchange between the husband and wife, and they all turned around in pain and wept secretly.
Wang Hui said a lot, and finally talked about his own children, he told Chen Jun: "Husband, I will definitely cultivate our two children well, let them grow up carefree and healthy, so that they can grow up like their fathers and become excellent people."
Chen Jun listened, although he couldn't speak, but the love in his eyes showed that he completely understood his wife's words, and how much he loved his wife, children and this family, and how reluctant he was to leave all this.
A tear was left in the corner of Chen Jun's eye, and after Wang Hui saw it, she gently kissed the tear away.
Grandpa Chen Sheng stepped forward and grabbed his son's other hand, just looked at his son, choked up and didn't speak.
When Chen Jun saw his father, there was a look of guilt in his eyes, "I feel guilty that I can no longer be filial in front of my parents, I feel guilty for letting my parents send white-haired people to black-haired people, and I feel guilty for neglecting my family because I was only busy with my own career before,......"
Grandpa Chen Sheng saw his son's expression, shook Chen Jun's cold hand vigorously, and said to Chen Jun, "Child, don't worry, you don't have to worry about the family, we will take care of Sheng'er and Linlin, so that they can grow up healthy and healthy."
Hearing his father's words, Chen Jun's eyes flashed with a hint of light, which was the light of hope.
Then Chen Jun's brothers came forward to say goodbye to him, Chen Jun's eyes swept over the faces of everyone in front of the bed, and finally stopped on Wang Hui's face, looking at his haggard and beautiful wife distressedly, the love in his eyes could not be dissolved, and slowly the light in Chen Jun's eyes faded, and finally his eyes closed, and the last trace of light was given to his lover.
The equipment in the ward let out a long beep, first on the heartbeat and pulse monitor, and then a red horizontal line ran through the entire screen, and the sharp beep rang for a while and then stopped.
All the relatives in the ward were crying in a low voice, Wang Hui didn't cry, just grabbed Chen Jun's hand with both hands, gently pressed it against his cheek, and was still muttering in his mouth, telling about the good old days.
Grandpa Chen Sheng stood aside and looked at his deceased son and daughter-in-law who was so grief-stricken that he was almost broken, with old tears and a long sigh in his eyes.
Director Zhou stepped forward to carefully check Chen Jun's physical signs, saw that he had completely lost his breath of life, raised his hand to look at his watch, and motioned to the assistant next to him to record: "In the early morning of September 3, 2001, Beijing time, in the intensive care unit of the First Central Hospital of Shenzhen, the patient Chen Sheng was declared dead at 3:45 due to his injuries, and the attending doctor Zhou Ming"
Wang Hui heard the voice announcing Chen Jun's death in his ears, and shouted hoarsely, "No!!!!! The voice was as tragic as a cuckoo crying blood, and then Wang Hui's whole person completely collapsed and fainted.
Fortunately, Director Zhou and the nurse have always been around, and immediately began to carry out on-site emergency rescue of Wang Hui, fortunately, Wang Hui just couldn't stand the huge blow and temporarily went into shock, two or three minutes later, Wang Hui woke up, but the whole person had lost his soul, his eyes were hollow and wooden, and he didn't say a word, just grabbed the hand of Chen Jun who had passed away, and everyone at the scene looked sad.
At this time at home in Beijing, Chen Sheng, who was already very tired, was sleeping on his bed with his sister in his arms, sleeping very deeply, probably dreaming, presumably dreaming of the beautiful moment when his family was together in a dream, and the corners of Chen Sheng's mouth flashed with a happy smile.
When the next morning came, Chen Sheng woke up and found that the atmosphere at home was very heavy and sad, and there were many neighbors at home who were helping to arrange something.
There were already a lot of white cloths wrapped around the courtyard, and even the white cloth curtains were hung at the gate, Chen Sheng's heart began to sink, his body was cold, and his body was trembling.
He had already thought of the reason why the house was arranged like this, and he had seen that as long as the neighbor's house was arranged like this, it was because a relative in the family had died.
There is only one reason why his home is furnished in front of him, that is, his father may be gone, Chen Sheng's tears began to flow out, and when he saw the master standing in the courtyard and directing everyone to be busy, Chen Sheng shouted "Master", and his voice was trembling.
When Master Chen Sheng heard the shout, he turned around and saw Chen Sheng standing at the door of his bedroom, looking at him with tears of sadness on his face, thinking, "It seems that the child has thought of what happened from the scene in front of him."
Master Lin put down the things in his hand, stepped forward quickly, and hugged Chen Sheng in his arms.
After Chen Sheng was embraced by his master, he couldn't hold back his voice anymore, and cried, his voice getting louder and louder, and at the same time he asked his master tremblingly: "Master, my dad can't come back?"
Master Lin nodded sadly, stroked Chen Sheng's head with his hand, and kept comforting Chen Sheng, "Sheng'er, don't be too sad, you still have your mother, sister, and grandpa, grandma, grandma, grandma, and master, master, all of us feel very sorry for you and love you, although you have lost your father now, but you will not get less love in the future than before, only more"
Chen Sheng's cry alarmed everyone in the living room, everyone came out of the living room, watching Chen Sheng crying in his master's arms, everyone looked at Chen Sheng with pity, sad for the child's tragic experience.
Chen Sheng cried for a while, under the comfort of the master, slowly stopped his tears, looked up and saw the people standing in the yard looking at him, Chen Sheng did not find his grandmother, carefully looked around, did not see his grandmother, looked up and asked his master: "Master, what about my grandmother, why didn't you see her"
Master Chen Sheng bowed his head to Chen Sheng and said, "Your grandmother is too sad to face the guests outside, so go to your parents' bedroom to stay, you go and comfort your grandma, now you can make your grandma less sad."
Chen Sheng listened to his master's words, got out of his master's arms, walked towards his father and mother's bedroom, walked to the door, pushed open the door and entered, and saw his grandmother holding his father's photo, sitting on the edge of the bed staring at the photo affectionately, and kept whispering in her mouth.
Chen Sheng walked behind his grandmother, and heard his grandmother keep talking about his father's past, some things Chen Sheng knew, some things he had never heard, grandma's body was rickety, the whole person was not bright, the white hair on one head was more conspicuous, her face was full of tears, and the whole person looked haggard.
Chen Sheng walked in front of his grandmother, squatted down and hugged his grandmother's leg next to the bed, leaned his head on his grandmother's lap, and cried silently.
The grandfather and grandson stayed together in the house for a long time, until Chen Sheng's sister walked into the room and persuaded for a while, then she stopped crying and walked out of the house.
At this time, Chen Sheng's sister Linlin woke up, probably also felt that the surrounding environment had changed, or the young heart knew that she had lost something important, and she cried loudly.
Chen Sheng saw that his sister had been crying, so he hurriedly ran to the house, took his sister from his grandmother's arms, held him in his arms, and comforted him softly.
Linlin was in her brother's arms, and her crying slowly became quieter, and finally stopped crying completely, and began to hold the bottle handed over by her grandmother and began to drink milk.
The house was quickly arranged, and the neighbors who came to help left one after another, leaving their own family at home, and now waiting for Chen Sheng's mother, grandfather, and uncles to come back with Chen Jun from Shenzhen.
Until the afternoon of the next day, Chen Sheng's grandfather and Wang Hui and the family who went to Shenzhen together came back, when the car that picked them up drove to the alley where his house was located, Wang Hui asked the driver to stop, sat in the car to ease his emotions, pulled his wrinkled coat, and made himself look not so bad, and he had to face his son for a while, and he couldn't give his son a feeling that he had collapsed.
After cleaning up for a while, Wang Hui walked out of the car with Chen Jun's ashes in her arms, and walked towards her house with Chen Sheng's grandfather.
When I was about to walk to the door of the house, I saw the white flags hanging in front of my house, and the four white words 'forgive me for not reporting well' posted on both sides of the door, and tears almost flowed out of my eyes again.
The door was open, probably hearing the sound outside, the family ran out, and Chen Sheng walked in front with his sister in his arms, wearing a white filial piety shirt and a filial piety hat on his head.
As soon as he came out of the door, Chen Sheng saw his mother, and tears flowed out.
His mother had become almost unrecognizable in just two days, the whole person was like dehydrated, thin and out of shape, with dry hair, pale complexion, and red and swollen eyes.
Linlin, who was in her arms, saw her mother coming back, stretched out her hands to hug her mother, and shouted her mother in her mouth, Chen Sheng walked to her mother's side, looked down at the urn in her mother's arms, and tears flowed endlessly.
Wang Hui looked at his son standing in front of him and said to him: "Son, I brought your father back from Shenzhen, and he will never leave us from now on, and our family will always be together."
After speaking, he held the urn with one hand and his two children with the other, and hugged them into his arms, and the family hugged each other tightly and never separated again.
