Chapter Twenty-Eight: Grandma Dies
Chapter 16 Grandma dies
The car stopped on the side of the road, because it was only September, and Long Ruiyuan, who had just gotten out of the car, felt a heat wave coming towards him. The hometown is not as good as the city, there are more two- or three-story small western-style buildings, and grandma's house is more traditional, similar to a courtyard house, but there is a small vegetable garden behind the house, and this small vegetable garden is Long Ruiyuan's paradise when he was a child.
Greeted at the door was a slightly chubby peasant woman, in Long Ruiyuan's impression, this person seemed to be calling the second aunt, this second aunt treated Long Ruiyuan very well, when he was a child, he accompanied Long Ruiyuan a lot, and often gave candy to eat. But because I haven't read for a few years, I got married early, but I am still very simple.
"Second aunt, I haven't seen you for a long time, I miss you so much, I'm really hungry for the second aunt's braised pork."
After speaking, Long Ruiyuan hurriedly ran over and hugged the second aunt, others were good to him, and he couldn't turn a blind eye, so Long Ruiyuan was still very close to this second aunt.
The second aunt also touched Long Ruiyuan's head, but it was not as easy as when she was a child, after all, Long Ruiyuan was not short now.
"Eldest sister, brother-in-law, Xiao Yuan, let's go, come into the hall, everyone is in the hall to accompany Grandma Xiaoyuan."
After saying that, the group entered the gate and went straight to the hall. Pushing open the wooden door, there were many people in the hall at this time, everyone sitting on the wooden board, around a relatively classical wooden bed.
Long Ruiyuan's parents pulled Long Ruiyuan to the bedside, only to see an old man with white hair, slightly sunken cheeks, a lot of age spots on his face, and infusion liquid on his hands.
The three of them saw that their grandmother was already asleep, and they couldn't bother, so they could only sit down on the edge of the bed and wait for their grandmother to wake up.
Long Ruiyuan's mother touched her grandmother's forehead, and her tears were about to fall at this time. Not to mention Long Ruiyuan, when he was a child, his grandmother was so good to him, but now when he sees his grandmother's thin and listless appearance, he is also sad in his heart, and the tears in the corners of his eyes keep rolling.
The second aunt came over and patted Long Ruiyuan on the shoulder, signaled him not to cry, and pulled Long Ruiyuan out of the hall. Outside, the second aunt told Long Ruiyuan a lot how his grandmother thought of him, often looked at the photos of Long Ruiyuan on the bedside table, and sometimes called Long Ruiyuan's nickname when he fell asleep.
It is said that the next generation is pro-generational, but it is still rare to love him like his grandmother, after all, since he can remember, until the third grade, he has always been with his grandfather and grandmother, and that kind of relationship is as deep as mountains and seas.
The more he recalled, the more he wanted to cry, so he cried loudly directly on his second aunt, Long Ruiyuan was really afraid that his grandmother would leave him like this, he couldn't accept that his relatives would leave him like this, even if it was a normal parting of life and death.
Suddenly, the door of the hall was pushed open, and it was Long Ruiyuan's mother who walked over, only to see her eyes red, and said to Long Ruiyuan in a choked voice: "Xiao Yuan, your grandma is awake, you go over and see your grandma, remember, wipe your tears first, don't let your grandma see you crying, otherwise he will be even more sad." ”
After finishing speaking, Long Ruiyuan's mother returned to the hall, Long Ruiyuan hurriedly rubbed the corners of his eyes, and after controlling his emotions, he hurriedly came to the hall.
Grandma lying on the bed saw Long Ruiyuan, and excitedly wanted to stand up and touch Long Ruiyuan's face, but how dare Long Ruiyuan let Grandma get up, he came to the side of the bed with an arrow step, took Grandma's hand and put it on his face.
"Grandma, grandma, Xiao Yuan is here, I know you miss me very much, I miss you too, as soon as I heard that you were sick, I hurried over."
As he spoke, he almost couldn't control his emotions again, and he held back his tears so that he didn't fall.
"Xiao Yuan, Xiao Yuan, it's really my good grandson, my grandmother hasn't seen you for more than half a year, I heard that you went to a key high school, my grandson is amazing, but it's a pity that your grandfather left early and can't see it."
Maybe it was because my grandmother's body was really too weak at this time, so after saying this, she fell asleep directly. The second aunt didn't say a word, she came directly to her grandmother's side, and was relieved to see her grandmother's chest falling together, but fortunately she just fell asleep.
Seeing that Grandma had slept again, the second aunt asked everyone to go to the living room to eat something first, and just leave two people here to take care of it. Led by the uncle, the whole room went out of the hall and came to the living room, leaving only the second aunt and Long Ruiyuan's mother to take care of the grandmother in the hall.
After sitting in the living room, my uncle took the lead in speaking: "I believe everyone can see that my mother doesn't know how long she can last now, so I called everyone back so that my mother can see everyone." ”
Everyone actually understands in their hearts that grandma is eighty-eight years old, and everyone has to go through birth, old age, sickness and death, so even though everyone is sad, they basically want to open it.
Just now, because they were in the hall, everyone didn't dare to talk loudly, but now when they came to the living room, everyone was active and began to play with each other, but they all selectively avoided the topic of grandma's physical condition.
After more than an hour, a few plates of hot dishes were served, and everyone began to eat around the table, although from noon to now, Long Ruiyuan had not eaten, but because he was in a bad mood, he left without eating a few bites.
When I came to the hall, I saw my mother and my second aunt sitting at the head of the bed, but my grandmother still didn't wake up, so Long Ruiyuan also followed my mother to stay by the bedside, hoping that my grandmother would see herself as soon as she woke up.
I don't know how long it has been, Long Ruiyuan's sleepiness hit, and he fell asleep against the bed unconsciously.
When Long Ruiyuan woke up again, it was almost midnight, and when Long Ruiyuan's mother saw that Long Ruiyuan was awake, she told him to hold on and go to the guest room to sleep. Long Ruiyuan shook his head, saying that he insisted on staying, seeing this scene, Long Ruiyuan's mother was not reluctant, stood up, and asked Long Ruiyuan to watch first, and she went to the toilet.
I don't know if it's a coincidence, as soon as Long Ruiyuan's mother left, grandma woke up, and felt that grandma's mental condition was much better than in the evening, Long Ruiyuan hurriedly asked grandma softly if she was hungry, grandma shook her head, just took out a purse from under the pillow, took out a ring from it and handed it to Long Ruiyuan.
"Xiao Yuan, I don't know if your mother told you about this ring?" Seeing Long Ruiyuan nodding, grandma also thought about it and sighed randomly.
"In that case, I won't say more, this ring was told to me by your grandfather before he died, he wanted to pass the ring to you, but there was an accident before he could give it to you, you remember, this ring, you just need to collect it, don't have too many ideas, just live your life in peace, Xiao Yuan, you must listen to grandma."
"Grandma, don't worry, I've listened to you since I was a child, and you don't know."
Grandma nodded with satisfaction, and touched Long Ruiyuan's face again, Long Ruiyuan also took Grandma's hand and whispered in his ear.
As he spoke, he suddenly found that his grandmother's hands were a little cold, and when he looked sideways, he saw that his grandmother had closed her eyes and was not breathing.
"Grandma, don't scare Xiao Yuan!" After speaking, he cried directly into tears.
