Chapter 239: Honoring the Ancestors
Li Shouliang, who returned to the courtyard, never wanted to fight, this sad day would come so soon. He was really caught off guard.
On Saturday, just after a week's work, Li Shouliang cleaned up, thinking about the 'Uncle Han who seems to be a teacher but not a friend' who is still in the hospital.
I got on the bus to the hospital and came to the hospital.
followed the direction in my memory to Uncle Han's ward, pushed open the door and looked, huh? It's not Uncle Han.
The man also seemed to hear the voice, and turned to look at Li Shouliang, obviously with doubts and puzzles on his face.
Li Shouliang first complained of annoyance and asked, "Dare to ask, do you know where the person who lived in this ward before?" ”
The man was also puzzled and said, "I don't know, there was no one here when I moved in." ”
Li Shou's conscience was stunned, although no one represented either case.
One is that he is discharged from the hospital after he is sick, and the other is that he is gone. Li Shouliang always thinks in a bad direction intuitively.
Afraid that his thoughts would come true, Li Shouliang hurriedly ran to the front desk, and almost bumped into someone along the way because he ran too hard.
Coming to the front desk, Li Shouliang asked, "Please check where Han Shen went first in the xx ward?" How was it discharged? I'm a friend of his, and I came to see him the other day. ”
The front desk glanced at Li Shouliang and checked it directly.
Liang Jiu raised his head and said, "Comrade Han was discharged from the hospital a few days ago. ”
Li Shouliang hurriedly asked, "Where did you go, do you know?" Does anyone know who took it out? ”
The nurse said: "I don't know about this, the record is like this, I am not the nurse who handled the discharge, and I don't know what the specific situation is." ”
When Li Shouliang heard this, he knew who was the nurse on duty and who was the nurse who was discharged from the hospital. It is not necessary to find that this modern situation of responsibility to people is not yet possible, and there is no such complete record.
Li Shouliang was a little surprised to find out when he was discharged from the hospital, thinking that this was already very detailed.
Li Shouliang, who was out of the hospital, knew that Uncle Guan was most likely to know, after all, was it the bed he was with. got in the car again and rushed to Uncle Guan's house.
came to the door of Uncle Guan's house. The door was ajar, unlike when Li Shouliang used to come, which was always open.
But the gap left behind by this is like a black hole that wants to eat people, which makes Li Shouliang's uneasy feeling more and more intense.
Li Shouliang took a heavy breath and spit it out again. Gently pushed the door open and walked in.
When I came to the main hall, I pushed the door open, it was dark, and the lights were not turned on, Li Shouliang touched and opened it.
Then he saw a figure standing upright in the middle of the main hall, with his eyes closed and not speaking.
Li Shouliang asked, "Uncle Guan, what is this for?" Want to sing too? Why don't you turn on the lights, standing here, aren't you tired? As he spoke, he found a place to sit down.
He also said: "Uncle Guan, when I got off work today, I went directly to the hospital and wanted to see Uncle Han, but there was no one in the place, and the nurse said that Uncle Han was discharged from the hospital a few days ago." What's going on?
Uncle Han is sick? Why don't you tell me? I'll come over and pick up Uncle Han from the hospital. ”
Uncle Guan opened his eyes that had been closed and said, "Han Xiaobraid is gone." ”
Although Li Shouliang had an expectation in his heart, he still didn't want to believe it, and said forcefully: "Back to Jintian? The work of the calligraphy and painting group is gone? ”
Uncle Guan looked at Li Shouliang quietly and said, "Go underground." Not coming back. I just sent it away today. ”
Li Shouliang really felt like he had been knocked on the head, a little dazed, and he didn't know how to express it. This old man, who has met him a few times, because of his love for him, when he was lying on the hospital bed, still wanted to plan for him, and his words were full of 'regret'.
Now that he is suddenly gone, something is happening around him alive, and it is hard not to make him sad.
Li Shouliang had no choice but to snort: "Why, why don't you call me?" Anyway, I'll give Master Han a ride. ”
Uncle Guan glanced at Li Shouliang, and said with a forced smile: "Your Uncle Han specially instructed you not to let you know." I'm afraid that your young man will be so thoughtful that he won't be able to get out for a while. I can't see that Han Xiaobraid's eyes are vicious, and I can see that you value affection. ”
Li Shouliang didn't know what to say, so he only said, "Uncle Guan, Uncle Han." ”
The word ashes couldn't be said at all, as if it was blocked in his throat.
Uncle Guan said: "Han Xiaobraid said that if you don't know, I know that I can't hide it." How would you ask. I'll show you there tomorrow.
Didn't eat, did you? It just so happens that I haven't eaten, I've been running around for the past few days, and I don't have any food at home. Let's go out for a bite and give Han pigtails to us. ”
Li Shouliang nodded, the older he gets, the more things he experiences, and the deeper he feels about these things. It's true that I can't relieve my emotions for a while.
followed Uncle Guan to the kind of public-private bistro in a small alley.
I ordered two dishes casually, but the wine was served first, and the two drank it dry. Uncle Guan has been a friend for many years, and Li Shouliang is an elder who values him very much.
It's not comfortable, it naturally tastes like a cup after a cup, and the dishes are not complete, so the two of them drank a bottle first. ordered another bottle, Uncle Guan was old after all, and he drank five taels of wine on an empty stomach, and he began to get a little up, and the speed of the two slowed down.
Rao was so, and the second bottle was drunk at the end. Li Shouliang sent Uncle Guan back to the small courtyard, and he ran home.
。
。
Early the next morning, Li Shouliang didn't go to find a partner, so he came to Uncle Guan's house.
didn't eat, went to the cooking stall, Uncle Guan ate the bean juice that Uncle Guan drank. Li Shouliang asked for a few fritters and ordered a bowl of soy milk.
After the two finished eating, Uncle Guan took Li Shouliang to a funeral home, Li Shouliang was very puzzled, but he didn't say anything.
went straight inside, and the staff inside, when they saw someone coming, thought they had work again, and stood up and walked straight towards the two of them.
After getting closer, I saw that it was Uncle Guan who said, "It's you." Aren't you? ”
Uncle Guan glanced at Li Shouliang and said, "My old friend is very fond of the elder, take him to have a look." ”
The man nodded and said, "Don't get too close, or you'll be in danger." Then he went back.
Uncle Guan led Li Shouliang to a place and said, "This is the place where your Uncle Han walked." ”
Li Shouliang finally couldn't help but ask, "Uncle Guan, where are the ashes?" Shall we come to this place? Why don't you go straight to the cemetery? Or are the ashes gone? "There's some speculation.
Uncle Guan said: "The ashes were brought back to Jintian yesterday. It is said that it is to return to the roots. I can't take you to see it, so I'll come here to remember.
People walked in a chic way, and they weren't even allowed to hold a funeral, for fear of being too high-profile. Ay. Only three or five friends knew that he was gone. There is one less elegant person in this world. ”
Li Shouliang sighed and didn't say anything, and the two stood in front of them for a while.
Because of the relatively high temperature, the two went home.
All the way to Uncle Guan's house in silence. Relatively sit still. Didn't speak.
After a long time, Uncle Guan stood up first and said, "Your Uncle Han has something for me to hand over to you." ”
Before Li Shouliang could ask anything, Uncle Guan went inside.
Came out with something and came out.
A thick pile looks like a book.
Uncle Guan handed it over and said, "This is what your Uncle Han specially prepared for fear that my book on calligraphy and painting is incomplete." And his own previous notes. They were all brought over by the juniors from Jintian. ”
Li Shouliang took it, only to feel that he weighed a thousand pounds, and when he was seriously ill and contacted his family, he still thought about him, and asked his family to bring the book.
Li Shouliang asked, "Uncle Guan, who are the descendants of this Uncle Han?" Do you have any contact details or something? ”
Uncle Guan shook his head: "This matter is an oversight, there is only an address, or the address where I corresponded with Han Xiaobraid, I don't know if it's not." ”
So I went and wrote a piece of paper with an address on it.
Li Shouliang took the address and looked at it carefully. I wrote it down, then stuffed it into my pocket.
I picked up the book and notes again and flipped through them.
Uncle Guan said on the side: "Originally, I wanted you to learn miscellaneous first. After all, there is Han Xiaobraid, and there is an opportunity to learn calligraphy and painting. But I didn't expect Han Xiaobraid to suddenly fall ill and die. Among the remaining few of them, they are familiar with me after all, that is, Qigong.
But this time I learned that he was not a member of the calligraphy and painting group, Han Xiaobraid retired from illness, and it was Liu Jiuan who made up for it. If you can't help, the conditions are limited, so let's learn first. ”
】
Li Shouliang weighed the book in his hand and said: "That's good, read the book first, and then have the opportunity to read it later." If you don't read, now you're throwing me in it, and I don't know it, and I can't learn anything. ”
Uncle Guan nodded and said, "Then so be it." ”
