Chapter Seventy-Five: The Late Truth (1)
Shen Yin returned to the ward, and Wang Mengliang had already arrived. "Why have you been around for so long? I thought you were lost? The mother-in-law took the kettle in her hand and seemed a little upset.
"Huh? It took a while to find a water room just now. She lied, since she got married, her mother-in-law has often blown wind in her ears, reminding her openly and secretly that she wants to hold her grandson. But they have been married for two years, and her stomach has never responded. At the beginning, my mother-in-law often inquired about home remedies and gave her a few pairs of traditional Chinese medicine, but after still no reaction, she now talked a lot about her attitude. In the past year, she has to work and take care of her grandmother, and she doesn't care about her mother-in-law as much as before.
"Mom and Dad, it's not too early, I'll send you back first, we're here." Wang Mengliang saw that her mother's face was not very good, so she changed the topic.
Wang Mengliang stood beside her, held her hand, and whispered in his ear: "I'll take my parents back first, you stay here for a while, and I'll settle them down and come back." β
She nodded with her eyes and sent her father-in-law to the door of the ward, "Mom and Dad, pay attention to safety on the road." β
Seeing off her parents-in-law, she sat down and held her grandmother's warm and dry right hand, feeling sad in her heart.
"Kid, you're here." Grandma opened her eyes, "Come, lie down with grandma, warm." β
Shen Yin buried her head in her grandmother's palm, "Grandma, the doctor said that you should recuperate, and I will sleep next to you in a while." She gestured to another bed in the room.
"Child, you haven't been here for a long time, if it's cold, lie down next to grandma, there is a place here." Grandma patted her head gently, and she remembered that when she was a child when she slept alone, she would gently pat her head like this to lull her to sleep.
When she saw that the hot water on the table was boiling, she put it in her hand warmer bag and placed it at her grandmother's feet. "Grandma, is it warm? That way, you can sleep peacefully and get a warm night's sleep. β
"Grandma has been asleep for a long time, and she is not bad for a while, and now I want to talk to you."
"Well, grandma, say whatever you want, I'm listening." She moved the stool toward her grandmother's head, and she saw the clock on the wall, and it was already nine-ten.
"Living to my age, the biggest wish in my heart is to have someone around me, now that you are all here, Xiaoliang, this kid married such a beautiful daughter-in-law as you, it must be an ancestor who has accumulated virtue." Grandma held her hand and touched the wedding ring on her hand, "You and Xiaoliang live a good life, grandma will always bless you, if Xiaoliang does bad things in the future, you must tell grandma, grandma will make decisions for you." β
"Well, I'll remember."
Grandma rubbed a golden ring on her hand, which had already appeared a lot of scratches, "This ring was brought to me by your grandfather himself, and it has never been taken off for so many years, and I am afraid that it will not be able to be taken off now." She saw that the ring had been firmly attached to her finger by the ring knuckle of her right hand, and it was a little difficult to remove it. She tried to turn the ring, but found that it couldn't move.
"Grandma, do your fingers hurt?"
"I don't feel it anymore, as long as I can touch this ring, it's like your grandfather is still around. Counting the days, the old man has been dead for twenty years, oops, the days have been so long, lately I have been dreaming, in the dream the old man called me over, I guess he can't wait over there. β
"Grandma, grandpa has been waiting over there for so long, it doesn't matter if he waits a little longer."
"yes, I was angry for a long time when he left suddenly."
Before I knew it, half an hour had passed, and my grandmother was silent when she was talking.
Wang Mengliang opened the door of the ward and walked in, holding a travel bag in his hand. "I brought your toiletries and brought you a snack."
When she came back from the bathroom, she found that the other bed had been made, and he was standing next to the bed, "I saw that you had a bad face just now, did something happen?" β
When she saw that her grandmother was already asleep, she dragged him outside the ward and told him what He Tao had said.
"The Uncle He you said, how credible are his words?"
"I don't know, but she gave me another person's contact information." She turned on her phone and found out her phone number.
Wang Mengliang took out his mobile phone, dialed the mobile phone number on it, and the voice of a boy answered the phone, "Hello, who are you looking for?" β
"This is Gu Kaizhi's mobile phone number?"
"Yes, what are you looking for my dad?"
"I'm looking for your dad for something, please let your dad answer the phone." There was a moment of silence on the phone, and after waiting for ten seconds, a middle-aged man's voice remembered, "I'm Gu Kaizhi, who are you?" What's the matter with me? β
"I'm Shen Hai's son-in-law, I'll talk to you about some things about my father-in-law, when do you have time? We'll see you in person. β
The middle-aged man reacted for a moment, "Huh? Shen Hai, I opened a 'latte art restaurant' in the town, you just need to go to the 'Jixiang Supermarket' to see it. β
"Okay, thank you, then I'll be there around ten o'clock tomorrow afternoon."
Wang Mengliang hung up the phone, "Rest early tonight, and I'll go with you tomorrow." β
"Hmm." She buried her face in his arms, trying to keep the tears from flowing.
"You go to sleep first, don't think about it."
The next morning, she asked the company for a day off, in fact, she had already guessed the truth in her heart, but now there is no definite evidence to make her completely agree with the matter.
They arrived an hour earlier than the agreed time, and according to the navigation on the mobile phone, they easily found the "Jixiang Supermarket", and around the corner of the supermarket, there was a 60-square-meter restaurant with a middle-aged woman wiping the table.
"Hello, is Gu Kaizhi here?" Shen Yin stepped forward and asked, she was inexplicably a little scared in her heart, and there was a slight tremor in her tone.
"You're Shen Hai's eldest daughterβShen Yin, right?" The middle-aged woman hurriedly put down the things in her hand and motioned for them to sit down first, "Lao Gu has already told me, but your eyebrows and eyes are indeed very similar to those of Su Yan." Wang Suyan was her mother's name, and it seems that the couple did know her parents, and their relationship must have been very close, she speculated.
The middle-aged woman poured them two glasses of water, "Lao Gu is out, you wait a minute, he will be back soon." β
"Okay, we're not in a hurry, we're just rushing here and causing you trouble."
The middle-aged women sat across from them, and Wang Mengliang felt that his presence would make them worry, so he excused himself to go for a walk around the neighborhood.
"Auntie, you and my mother seem to know each other very well, can I ask you a few things?" She had been thinking about these questions for a long time while lying in bed last night, so she cut straight to the point.
"Yes, Lao Gu and I can get together, and it's all your mother who pulls the strings, and your sister was just one year old when we met. The boy was very clever, and he smiled when he saw people, and he was so likable. β
"Did my parents have been separated some time before that? Do you know about this? β
"You're here for this?" The middle-aged woman's face became serious, "Child, Auntie told you, who didn't make a mistake when they were young, since they didn't tell you before leaving, why did you bother to uncover this scar?" β
"Auntie, I didn't mean that, I now feel like I know what the truth about my dad was in prison? Since you know my parents, you must know my dad better, although he is sometimes weak, but I believe that he will never be able to seriously injure people, if you know anything, tell me, okay? When she said this, she was already teary-eyed, "Until my dad died, I didn't really forgive him in my heart......"
The middle-aged woman sat down beside her and held her hand, "I also heard about the situation in your family recently, and I cried out when I felt uncomfortable, and my aunt accompanied you." β
"I'm sorry, I was so rude." Shen Yin wiped away her tears, "Auntie, just tell me those things." β
