Chapter 8: The Selfless Old Man

If you want to say that Jiang Ran has anything to show off in the past ten years, grandma Wei Hongying's indefatigable attitude is the first to bear the brunt.

There is no impression of her parents in the memory of her predecessor, and only the figure of the old man who accompanied her to grow up. It can be said that Wei Hongying is not afraid of wind and rain and earns every tuition and living expenses she has now with her hard-working hands.

It can only be said that it was ill-fated, and two people who were not very lucky touched each other, creating this tragic ending.

Wei Hongying didn't notice her granddaughter's arrival and was busy looking for usable scrap.

Although picking up garbage is a dirty job, but diligent and quick can earn a lot of money a day, these days she goes back and forth to the hospital, almost no time to pick up garbage, a lot of good things are picked up by others.

They are different from Wei Hongying, who specializes in picking up garbage, they both have jobs, but they are also interested in these paper skins and plastic bottles that can be sold for money without cost.

She is a lonely old man, and she can't fight hard with others, so she can only make up for her shortcomings diligently.

Maybe she hasn't slept well in the past few days, and when she bends over, it hurts like pins and needles, so she can only pick up and stop, and she can't stand it anymore, just stand next to it for a while, and then continue to do it when she gets better.

But the pain in her waist became more and more obvious, when she reached out and was about to pick up the drink bottle that she stepped on, her lower back seemed to sting, this wave of pain came suddenly and violently, Wei Hongying's body stiffened, and she kept bending over and stopped in mid-air.

If anyone saw Wei Hongying's face at this time, they would definitely be able to see that her face covered with hot sweat was bloodless, and in a few seconds, her cheeks, chin, and the back of her neck were covered with a dense layer of cold sweat.

Her body trembled uncontrollably, and the old man's heart was also full of fear, at this moment she thought not of what was wrong with her body, but what if something happened to her granddaughter.

She couldn't stop praying that nothing would happen, her granddaughter had just recovered, and there could be no accidents.

But at this moment, a force grabbed her arm, and her lower back was held by one hand at the same time, Wei Hongying unexpectedly found that her body could move.

She stood up, although her back was still tingling, but it did not affect her speech, and she was about to thank the person who helped, but when she turned her head, she found that it was her granddaughter who was supporting her, and she couldn't help but be stunned, "Xiaoran?" ”

"I bought porridge and steamed buns, let's go upstairs first." As if he hadn't seen the scene just now, Jiang Ran calmly helped the old man to walk inside.

When Wei Hongying reacted, she had already walked to the door, and she wanted to say something, to see her granddaughter's rare smiling face, and to follow her up the stairs.

Worried that the dirty marks on her clothes would get on her granddaughter, Wei Hongying hurriedly explained when she entered the house that she was just distracted, and now she was fine, while carefully avoiding her granddaughter's clean clothes, her hands were completely empty, and she was afraid that the stench on her hands would be transmitted to her granddaughter, so she quickly went to the bathroom to rinse it.

Jiang Ran saw this scene carefully, moved his mouth but didn't say anything.

The living room occupies less than a third of the total area of the house, with a wooden folding sofa of nearly two meters in front of it, a small table and an old-fashioned cabinet with a TV in front of it standing on the other half, and then the walking aisle remains.

put the food on the table, went to the curtain again, put the rune paper cinnabar and so on in the small cabinet next to sleeping, and when he came back, he saw the schoolbag on the table, took out a few books by the way, and then sat on the sofa and waited for Wei Hongying to come out.

After about ten minutes, Wei Hongying cleaned it and took off her coat, which turned out to be a smock made in the style of clothes, so as to avoid the clothes inside from getting dirty.

Seeing the buns and porridge on the table, Wei Hongying's eyes instantly dyed with a smile.

Wei Hongying treated herself as she could, and when she saw that she wanted to keep those meat buns for her dinner that night, Jiang Ran persuaded her for a long time before stopping her.

To be honest, whether it is Xuanmen or the world, she has never met someone like Wei Hongying, who has wronged herself so much for others. I didn't understand and was very envious at the same time, and when I thought that I was now replacing my predecessor, that envy disappeared in an instant.

Although this meal was searched and searched, Wei Hongying was smiling from beginning to end, her granddaughter has always been sensible, and she was worried that her granddaughter would not be able to come out of this suicide, and she was instantly relieved when she learned from Jiang Ran's mouth that she had just gone out for a walk to buy something.

So after eating the buns and porridge, Wei Hongying immediately went to open the box that was locked on weekdays, took out a neatly folded stack of banknotes with a denomination of ten yuan and twenty yuan, and handed it to Jiang Ran, "Take this money and go buy some snacks later, grandma has saved a lot this year, let's go to the supermarket to pick out a few clothes for you in a few days, it just so happens that our Xiaoran has also grown." ”

Wei Hongying said generously, but Jiang Ran's mood was a little fluctuating.

She knew that Wei Hongying had earned this money day and night, and she had saved it for many years before she left it. Now picking up garbage doesn't make much money, so the situation of their family will definitely not be as she said, after paying her tuition and paying rent, she can save a lot, not to mention the various medicine and room expenses that she was hospitalized for three days in this suicide.

She didn't pick it up, her eyes were on the book in her hand, her eyes suddenly moved, and the topic changed, "By the way, grandma, the teacher assigned a labor assignment before, to promote the spirit of sports to the family, and the homework will be handed in after the three-day holiday, can you do me a favor?" ”

"This kid says that he can't help or not, the homework given by the teacher has to be done, so you just say what to ask grandma to do." Wei Hongying was really diverted from her thoughts, and she answered without saying a word.

Jiang Ran asked her to lie down on the sofa and began to talk nonsense, "The spirit of sports is to advocate national sports, and the teacher taught us a massage technique to improve the stiffness of the body left by people who have little exercise, and it won't take long, grandma just needs to cooperate with me to complete the set and sign it." ”

Wei Hongying didn't have the slightest doubt about her granddaughter's words, in order to cooperate with Jiang Ran, she didn't care about money, and listened to her lie down.

Seeing this, Jiang Ran smiled with satisfaction.

Maybe her granddaughter's fingers are too flexible, Wei Hongying thought that this old bone would suffer a little, but after a movement, the place where her granddaughter's fingers fell seemed to be brushed by warm light, crispy and numb, and gradually she began to feel a little sleepy, knowing that she still had to work, her eyelids fell uncontrollably.

The sound of the old man's steady breathing came, and Jiang Ran's movements involuntarily lightened. Wei Hongying has worked hard for many years, and she has a lot of problems on her body, and her method under the guise of homework is a special method for regulating internal qi and loosening tendons in Xuanmen, which is very effective for ordinary people.

Seeing that Wei Hongying was already asleep, Jiang Ran was about to check her body, but when she heard the 'buzzing' vibration sound, she found that it was Wei Hongying's mobile phone ringing.

Wei Hongying's mobile phone is a long-term model, and if she accidentally fell to the ground some time ago, she could only pick it up and not be able to call.

She used to hold her mobile phone and looked at it for a while, and pressed the answer according to the prompt, and a gentle and polite voice came from inside, "Hello, is it Ms. Wei?" The results of your test at the hospital have come out, you can come over when you have time, the situation is not good..."
