Chapter 58: To the Hu family
"The old man's situation has not been good recently, the last time your mother's funeral, the old man didn't want to go, but because his health was suddenly not good, so he didn't succeed."
The housekeeper quietly told Zhao Xiaotang about it.
Zhao Xiaotang was shocked, because the housekeeper didn't tell her about it at first, and at her mother's funeral, she comforted herself.
"Then why didn't you tell me at that time?"
If she had told her, she would have told her mother, and her mother would not have left aggrieved.
"The old man won't let me say it, you know, when your mother was disobedient, the old man was so angry, and the root of the disease came out at that time."
The housekeeper took Zhao Xiaotang up the stairs and stopped at the door of Old Man Hu.
"I'll go take a look first, and if he's awake, I'll let you in again, okay?"
The housekeeper didn't say it, he was going to ask Old Man Hu for advice, otherwise his situation would be bad, and none of them would be able to afford this responsibility.
"Okay, you can go in."
Zhao Xiaotang didn't care about this, she was still nervous about it on the way here, but she didn't know why, after arriving here, she wasn't so nervous.
For Zhao Xiaotang, these are all trivial things.
The housekeeper came out less than a minute after entering, inviting Zhao Xiaotang in.
"The old man let you in alone."
The housekeeper walked up, watched Zhao Xiaotang go in, and called out to her after Zhao Xiaotang was about to enter inside.
"Old Man Hu is not in good health, don't stimulate him, just endure anything a little, okay?"
"I see." Zhao Xiaotang stopped and assured the housekeeper very seriously.
Zhao Xiaotang's footsteps in were very slow, and it was very quiet inside, and the ticking of the clock could be heard.
There was also a smell of Chinese medicine inside, and Zhao Xiaotang entered the bedroom.
The sight was an old man lying on the bed staring at the door, Zhao Xiaotang stood at the door and didn't go in.
"Come in."
Old Man Hu's voice is very weak, and he can't hear it if he doesn't listen carefully.
"Okay, grandpa, I heard that you are not in good health, are you feeling better now?"
After Zhao Xiaotang entered, there was no way to speak as restrainedly as at home.
"It's much better, people are old, but there are all kinds of problems, your grandmother has been taking care of me, and I let him go to rest."
When Old Man Hu saw Zhao Xiaotang, he felt that he saw his daughter, the two of them were really too similar.
Since he almost died yesterday, he has figured out many things, and he is also regretting it, if he had been kind to Hu Rong'er before.
Maybe Hu Rong'er wouldn't have died so miserably, and Zhao Xiaotang wouldn't have experienced such tragic casualties.
"Just rest well, you will live to be a hundred years old."
Zhao Xiaotang's every sentence was very stiff, as if he was memorizing a text.
"Don't be so nervous, I won't do anything to you, I'm very happy that you are willing to come to see me today."
Old Man Hu wanted to help Zhao Xiaotang move a chair, but he didn't have the strength to get up.
"I'll just do it myself."
Zhao Xiaotang quickly put the chair next to the bed, in front of his grandfather, and then sat down.
Seeing the gentle but weak old man, Zhao Xiaotang's mood was not much better.
"You look like your mother, I know everything about you, and I have figured out a lot of things after wandering around death for a night. It was all my fault before, and if I hadn't been so bad to your mother, your mother wouldn't have died. ”
Old Man Hu didn't seem to need Zhao Xiaotang's answer, he just needed someone to say these words, and Hu Rong'er had already left.
So Zhao Xiaotang is the best person to listen to these words.
"I'm very guilty, I can't accept the fact that the white-haired person sent the black-haired person, and your grandmother often says by my side, forgive Rong'er, but I can't do it, because I think that she chose to leave, so she has to pay the price for this behavior."
"I want her to take a good look at the life she chooses, how bad the person she chooses, and I want to tell her that she is wrong."
When Old Man Hu talked about the back, his emotions became excited, and Zhao Xiaotang sat in his position at a loss, for fear that something would happen to Old Man Hu.
"You know what? She didn't apologize in the end, and told me that she was wrong, just one sentence, is it that difficult? ”
Old Man Hu is not used to bowing his head to his juniors, probably because of yesterday's events, which made him transparent.
"I can't blame you for my mother's affairs, what you said is not wrong, this is all my mother's choice, but my mother always mentions you during the time she is hospitalized, and in my mother's heart, you have always been a good father."
Zhao Xiaotang understands his grandfather and his mother, both of them are insisting on their own affairs, and neither of them admits defeat.
At the end of the day, no one had a chance to say sorry to each other.
Grandpa looked at Zhao Xiaotang in disbelief, he didn't believe that his daughter was not saying that he hated her in the last days, but that he was thinking about him.
Old Man Hu was so excited that Zhao Xiaotang had no choice but to call the housekeeper in.
"You go out first, Master Hu needs to be quiet."
After Zhao Xiaotang heard it, he went out.
As soon as she went out, she saw her grandmother.
Grandma was also surprised to see Zhao Xiaotang, but she quickly reacted.
"Xiaotang, come and see grandpa, he is really a filial child."
Grandma trembled and grabbed Zhao Xiaotang's hand, and she grabbed Zhao Xiaotang to know that all this was not a dream.
"I heard that my grandfather was sick, so I came over to take a look."
Zhao Xiaotang wanted to pull his hand out, but his grandmother seemed to be afraid that Zhao Xiaotang would leave immediately, so she held on to it.
Zhao Xiaotang was afraid that if he used his strength, he would throw the old man to the ground.
"Your grandfather doesn't have anything serious, I'll take you down to sit down."
Grandma subconsciously thought that after Zhao Xiaotang went in, she was kicked out by Old Man Hu.
Finally saw Xiao Tang, she wanted to take a good look at her, and she also wanted to talk to her well.
"Okay, grandma, slow down."
Seeing that Zhao Xiaotang was so polite and kind to his elders, there were tears in his grandmother's eyes.
For the elderly, isn't it just that when they get old, someone is by their side?
But there was always no one around her, only these housekeepers and servants, and a very large villa.
Zhao Xiaotang obediently helped the old man downstairs and sat on the sofa.
"Have you had lunch?"
Grandma knew that the place where Zhao Xiaotang lived was away from here for a while, and she might not have eaten when she came over.
"I ate when I came, and I'm not hungry."
Although Zhao Xiaotang said this, his grandmother stubbornly asked people to prepare food for Zhao Xiaotang.
"You bring some fruit and snacks first, and when the chapel comes, you have to serve as a master."
Grandma was not satisfied that they had not sent anything for so long, and she scolded the maid a few words.
"Grandma, it's okay, I'll go to see my grandfather when I come over, and they don't need to prepare anything."
Zhao Xiaotang helped them speak.
