Chapter 34: The Old Lady's Last Wish

ABOUT WHAT PENG XU HAS EXPERIENCED IN THE PAST FEW DAYS, CHU TONG HAS NOTHING TO DO. Her mind was all about taking care of Xiaobao, and she didn't notice Peng Xu's abnormality at all, let alone that he thought about so many things in one day.

In the past few days, because Xiaobao is taken care of by Chu Tong, Feng Jun has run here more often, sometimes because he wants the child to take the initiative to come over, and sometimes because Xiaobao wants his father to call.

At first, Chu Tong didn't realize that there was something wrong with Feng Jun's frequent appearance in his apartment, until one day the security guard at the door downstairs said, "Are you off work?" I just saw that your husband has picked up the child and come back! Even the dishes have been bought for you. Don't say it, your husband is really a good man! ”

Chu Tong was stunned for a moment, and then went upstairs.

When I entered the house, I saw Feng Jun wearing an apron and cooking in the kitchen, while Xiaobao was playing origami on the sofa outside the kitchen. From time to time, he ran over with his folded paper airplanes and paper tigers to ask Feng Jun to take a look.

And Feng Jun would stop the spatula in his hand every time to instruct, and then continue to cook. Seeing Chu Tong enter the house, Xiaobao ran over with cheers and showed off his work to Chu Tong: "Mom, Mom, do you think the paper tiger that Dad taught me to fold looks good?" ”

"Wow, it's so beautiful, Xiaobao's hands are so skillful! Is the homework done? ”

"It's finished, Dad has checked it all, and there is no mistake!"

Feng Jun also poked his head out of the kitchen and said softly, "Back?" Wash your hands and eat right away! ”

Chu Tong was in a trance for a while, as if they were really a harmonious family in the eyes of others.

Since Feng Jun and himself took turns to pick up Xiaobao to and from school, it is true that the child is well-behaved and obedient, and it is also true that he is convenient and relaxed, everything is smooth and comfortable, without any sense of disobedience, as if the rhythm of life of the three people should be like this.

Go to work, get off work, pick up the baby, send the baby, go home to cook, accompany the child to do homework, and coax the child to sleep. This pace of life flickered and a month passed quickly.

Feng Jun's mother was discharged from the hospital and went home to recuperate for a while.

During this period, Chu Tong and Feng Jun took Xiaobao to visit the hospital many times, and every time they looked at the carefree smiling face of their eldest grandson, Feng Jun's mother muttered with satisfaction: "Tsk, it's so good!" It's neat, it's good! ”

In the following days, Peng Xu was busier than before, he had to go to work and take care of his mother who had just been discharged from the hospital, and the time to run to Chu Tong's side was only weekend rest.

It is said that Feng Jun's mother's medical expenses were quite large during her hospitalization, and she spent all the savings that the old couple had saved all their lives. Feng Jun's own meager income was also filled in.

But even so, it was not enough to support his mother's huge medical expenses. In order not to let his mother give up her confidence in treatment, Feng Jun had to borrow a sum of money online from his mother to maintain normal expenses.

Because the online loan needs to leave the contact numbers of two family members, Feng Jun really can't find anyone to guarantee him, so he has to ask Chu Tong to help him once anyway, saying that he just needs to answer the phone, as long as he can successfully approve the next payment.

Because of this, Chu Tong knew Feng Jun's current predicament, and he couldn't bear it, so he thought about how he could help him and save some expenses.

Live-in nannies to take care of patients are hard to find, and even if they do, they are ridiculously expensive. In order to save the cost of finding a nanny, Feng Jun found an hourly job, and then took time to run back to take care of his mother while going to work.

Without Feng Jun's help to pick up Xiaobao in rotation, Chu Tong had to get up early to deliver the baby and pick up the baby from work while going to work, and he was also very busy every day, and within a few days, the whole person lost weight.

Peng Xu, who has been left out in the cold for more than a month, looked at Chu Tong, who was busy running around at work, school, home, and in a hurry every day.

Although she was very concerned about Chu Tong and her ex-husband's behavior before, Chu Tong also explained that everything was for the sake of the child, so she had to do this.

No way, who made him have no resistance to Chu Tong? No matter how sour his heart is, as long as she says that she is willing to explain, he is willing to accept it, and he is willing to explain her difficulties and injustices.

Even in order to reduce Chu Tong's live metering, he deliberately applied to stagger his rest schedule with Chu Tong, so that he could use his vacation time to help Chu Tong take the child to get vaccinated, help go to the bookstore to buy teaching materials, and even take the time to help pick up Xiaobao to and from school.

The hardships shared by someone are not called hardship, but shared by Peng Xu. Chu Tong was much more relaxed, and naturally understood what Peng Xu's dedication and help meant, and he also knew what Peng Xu thought about him along the way.

They have developed from their love for each other at the beginning to a mode of getting along with each other that they never abandon and help each other.

To this day, even as the parties themselves, they can't tell whether their relationship is more like lovers? Or is it more like a loved one?

I just know that I can share some things for the other party, and I am very satisfied and at ease! Chu Tong is, and so is Peng Xu!

Once, when Peng Xu was on vacation, he once again helped Chu Tong pick up Xiaobao from school, and he met Feng Jun by chance.

When the two men who had had a conflict met again, they naturally would not be pleasant and greet each other, and when they were staring at each other, Xiaobao who came out of school broke the deadlock.

"Dad, Uncle Peng! Are you both here to pick up Xiaobao? Xiaobao is so happy! Should I go to my mom, or should I go with my dad? Xiaobao's innocent words made the two men blush slightly.

In the end, Xiaobao was naturally picked up by Feng Jun.

When Chu Tong learned that Feng Jun picked up Xiaobao and Peng Xu ran away, he felt sorry for Peng Xu. After getting off work in the evening, I wanted to ask Peng Xu to have dinner to thank him, but as a result, he temporarily received a call from Feng Jun and asked him to go to Feng's house in the evening.

It should still be Xiaobao's business, and Chu Tong naturally can't drop the chain in Xiaobao's matter.

After she hurried over, she found out that Feng Jun picked up Xiaobao from school today because his mother suddenly missed her grandson and wanted Feng Jun to pick up Xiaobao to come over to see the child.

In addition, the old lady also wants to use her grandson to connect her. gave his son and Chu Tong a chance to renew their relationship, which temporarily allowed Feng Jun to rush to pick up Xiaobao at the end of school without having time to inform Chu Tong in advance.

Who knows, the person who went to pick up the child was not Chu Tong, but Peng Xu, who helped, and learned from Xiaobao that in recent years, Peng Xu often picked him up and went to school.

When he first heard this, Feng Jun was a little angry, feeling that Chu Tong was irresponsible, how could he easily entrust his son to outsiders to pick him up?

But when I think about it, she is a woman who has to go to work and take care of her children. Sometimes the end of work is later than the time when the children leave school, and she will really take care of one or the other and be too busy. Having someone to help is good for her and good for their children.

Thinking of the deeds of this man who beat himself to a blue nose and swollen face in order to protect Chu Tong, he must have been a little sincere to Chu Tong. Love Wu and Wu, then, he will naturally not be much worse than Chu Tong's children!

Thinking of this, Feng Jun was a little more grateful to Peng Xu, after all, he was helping Chu Tong to pick up Xiaobao, and it was he who couldn't leave a bunch of things that gave Peng Xu the opportunity to perform.

There was a slight sour feeling in his heart, heh, what a good woman Chu Tong is, she deserves the best, but she was a little panicked in her heart, knowing that there were other men who were so affectionate about her, he couldn't deceive his heart after all.

When Chu Tong arrived at Feng's house, it was completely dark, and Xiaobao was tired of playing and went to bed early.

The old lady of the Feng family was even weaker than before, her whole person was skinny, her speech was short, and her eye sockets were deep-set, like a withered autumn leaf, and a gust of wind could blow her down at any time.

After meeting the old lady of the Feng family, the old lady beat her spirits, and once again intermittently, she persuaded Chu Tong to reunite with Feng Jun, saying that adults can't be too selfish, and they can't be bitter about children.

Chu Tong continued to remain silent to deal with Feng Jun's mother, and finally when she proposed that it was not too early to take Xiaobao home, when Feng Jun offered to send their mother and son, Chu Tong agreed.

On the way, Feng Jun told Chu Tong that the old lady's body was not optimistic, because the organs were damaged, multiple organs affected each other, and the doctor said that it was about half a month to live, and if she was emotionally unstable, there might be an emergency at any time, which is not easy to say.

Chu Tong frowned, expressing that it was difficult to accept.

I really didn't expect that the old lady who was still chatting with her just now had begun to enter the countdown to her life, and she didn't talk to her very kindly, it was really unbearable to think about it.

Man's destiny is destined, and everything is creation. Perhaps for a seriously injured patient, it is better to be relieved as soon as possible than to endure the pain all the time.

On the fourth day of meeting the old lady of the Feng family, Chu Tong received a call from Feng Jun early in the morning, saying that his mother was critically ill in the hospital, and hoped that she could take Xiaobao to the hospital for a trip, and the old lady wanted to see her and Xiaobao for the last time.

After Chu Tong rushed to the hospital, he was taken out by Feng Jun after letting Xiaobao see his grandmother for the last time, and the old lady had something to say to Chu Tong alone.

When there were only two people left in the ward, the old lady took Chu Tong's hand and pleaded with Chu Tong again in a weak voice if he could let go of his grievances and choose to remarry.

Looking at such an old lady Feng, Chu Tong was also uncomfortable, choked up several times, and tears rained down.

However, before she had time to agree or refuse the old lady's dying wish, the old lady Feng, who had run out of oil, actually commented on Chu Tong with expectant eyes, slowly lowered her thin arm, and stared at the boss with her eyes still staring.

When Feng Jun came in when he heard the abnormality, the old lady had already left with regret.

Peng Xu put Xiaobao's hand in Chu Tong's hand, walked over and gently stroked his mother's eyes, trying to make her walk decently. But the old lady was as stubborn as she was alive, and Ren Fengjun tried many times, but still refused to close her eyes.

Chu Tong heard some old people say that people who die with their eyes open are people with regrets, and if the last wish of the deceased can be fulfilled and someone asks her to close her eyes on the body, she will close her eyes.

Whether it's true or not, Chu Tong is willing to give it a try.

So, she stepped forward with sadness. Solemnly said to the body of the old lady on the hospital bed: "Old lady." You can go in peace, what you want me to do, I promise you! ”

After that, she had the courage to caress her palm over Old Lady Feng's eyes, and this time, a magical scene appeared, and the old lady who had stopped breathing really closed her originally wide eyes.
