Chapter 116: Death
Ming Xuan slowly opened his eyes and took off the oxygen mask from his mouth.
His movements were slow, and it was visibly difficult to the naked eye.
"For so many years, I've dragged you down."
"Sister."
One word made the tears in Mu Cheng's eyes break the embankment again.
At the beginning, Mingxuan babbled, and the first thing he could say was not his father or mother, but his sister.
The first time Mu Cheng fought with someone, it was when Ming Xuan was bullied.
In the summer vacation after that, Ming Xuan went to learn taekwondo for her, and he was small and persisted for seven or eight cold and summers, saying that he could protect her if he learned it.
Later, it came to puberty.
At that time, Mu Chengren was good-looking, there were many boys who liked her, and the love letters were handed to Mingxuan. The two sisters and brothers, relying on Mu Cheng's skin, did not eat less.
……
Too much, too much.
Memories run through the entire green years of Ming Xuan, and they also decorate Mu Cheng's youth.
Tears fell silently, Mu Cheng hooked her lips, "I never felt that you were dragging me down, you are my brother, always will be." ”
Mingxuan wanted to laugh, but his excessively puffy face made it difficult for him to move.
He grabbed her hand and whispered, "Sister, you must be happy." ”
Mu Cheng shook him back, "I will, you will have to give me a marriage when the time comes, don't forget, you are a brother-in-law." ”
Before the words fell, a smile appeared in Ming Xuan's eyes.
But before the smile expanded, his eyes trembled, the flesh on his face trembled, and he held her hand, which suddenly tightened.
Mu Cheng's heart jerked, "Ming Xuan." ”
The ECG monitor emitted a piercing alarm, and a look of obvious pain appeared on Ming Xuan's face.
He gritted his teeth, and his voice trembled, "It hurts, sister." ”
Ming Xuan has never cried out in pain, and many times he endures it, gritting his teeth and holding on.
"Mingxuan."
Jiang Shu pounced, Mu Cheng looked at him helplessly, tears flowed helplessly, and he didn't dare to touch him at all, for fear that the movement would aggravate the pain on his body.
She heard him say he didn't want to die.
Soon, doctors and nurses rushed in, and someone held her shoulders and quickly ducked back.
The white curtain was drawn, and several of them were cut off.
The ward was filled with the sound of the doctor's first aid, chaotic, obviously in front of him, but it seemed to be far away.
Mu Cheng listened.
Suddenly, a long cry of an electrocardiogram came into my ears, like a string suddenly bursting.
Mu Cheng fell into the arms of the person behind him.
This year's winter seems to be extraordinarily long.
Mu Cheng is afraid of the cold and doesn't like winter.
For her, it seems that bad things will always happen in such weather.
That was true five years ago, and it's the same this year.
Jiang Shu was in Mingxuan's body, and on the way to the morgue, he fainted.
For a long time, she had relied on Mingxuan to hold on, but now that Mingxuan is gone, she can't hold it anymore.
Mu Cheng looked at her even if she was asleep, tears were still flowing from the corners of her eyes, tucked the corners of the quilt for her, got up and walked out of the ward.
Jiang Shu fell, she couldn't fall, and she still had to preside over Mingxuan's posthumous affairs.
Mu Cheng never thought that it would only take two days to erase a person's existence.
From the collection of the remains to the cremation.
In the past two days, Mu Cheng has been worried about all the tedious and detailed things, but fortunately, he has Cheng Man by his side and Gu Zheng.
She's busy.
was so busy that he didn't have time to think about why Xiao Shiqin hadn't contacted her all along.
In the dead of night, Mu Cheng opened his eyes, and there was no trace of sleepiness in them.
She couldn't sleep, it had been going on for several nights.
I'm tired, but I don't want to sleep at all.
She sat up, turned on the bedside lamp, took the pill bottle from the drawer, and poured two pills. Just take the boiling water that has already cooled down and swallow it in one gulp.
When the water cup was put down, Mu Cheng's eyes swept over the mobile phone next to him, and he couldn't hold back and picked it up.
The screen lit up showed 3:24 a.m.
The white light on it stabbed her eyes, and Mu Cheng squinted her eyes for a while before putting the phone back, turning off the light, and lying down again.
When the sky was about to be exposed, she was a little sleepy, but after a while, Jiang Shu woke up and came out of the room, and the sound of the door shaft turning came, and she woke up again.
After another half an hour, the old neighborhood began to wake up.
The sound of talking, the sound of a car running over the ground...... All kinds of sounds were mixed together, and Mu Cheng felt that the world was not so empty.
She glanced at the time, got up and began to dress.
In the living room, Jiang Shu had already prepared breakfast.
It's white porridge and fritters.
Mu Cheng went into the bathroom to wash, and when she came out, Jiang Shu was packing her luggage.
They planned to take Mingxuan's ashes back to the countryside for burial.
Ming's father was also buried there, Jiang Shu thought, let Mingxuan return to his roots.
"Mom, have you eaten?"
Jiang Shu kept tidying up, turning her back to her and not raising her head, "You eat first, and then eat when I'm done." ”
Although she tried her best to restrain herself, Mu Cheng still keenly heard the choking in her words.
Several times, she saw her quietly wiping her tears in front of Mingxuan's old things. Afraid of being discovered by her, she locked herself in the room, saying that she was tired and wanted to rest, and only went out when she couldn't see anything unusual.
Mu Cheng answered, pursed his lips, turned his head, and drank white porridge in silence.
When I was about to finish eating, the mobile phone next to me rang, and the caller ID was Jiang Cheng.
When the phone was answered, the man said that his car had been parked downstairs and was ready to go.
Mu Cheng put down his chopsticks and refused, "No need, we have already bought the ticket." ”
After that, he didn't give him a chance to speak, and hung up the phone directly.
When Jiang Shu finished breakfast, the two of them saluted and locked the door.
They planned to come back after spending the New Year in the countryside, so they brought a lot of things with them.
Mu Cheng thought that Jiang Cheng should go, but when the two walked out of the corridor, the others were squatting next to the stone pier on the edge of the greenery, smoking in silence.
As soon as he saw the two of them, he hurriedly extinguished the cigarette butt with his foot, and when he came up, he was about to help them carry the salute.
Mu Cheng raised his hand to block it, his face was cold, "Don't bother, we called a car ourselves." ”
Jiang Cheng was stunned and raised his head, "Miss Mu, Mr. Xiao explained that the two of them must be delivered safely." ”
Mu Cheng pulled the corners of her mouth sarcastically, she didn't show up when she needed him, what was the use of coming to be courteous now.
She looked at a car not far away, scanned the information on her phone, and waved at the other party.
Jiang Shu saw that her face was not very good, and couldn't help shouting, "Orange Orange." ”
Mu Cheng hooked her lips at her, pulled up the suitcase left and right, and walked forward, "Let's go, Mom." ”
Where can Jiang Cheng let her go, he has to go up to stop her, with a bitter face, "Miss Mu, you are like this, I can't explain it to Mr. Xiao." ”
"Don't worry, he won't blame you." Mu Cheng sneered and handed the salute to the driver.
Jiang Cheng opened his mouth to explain, when a bell rang in the air.
He reached out to take it, and as soon as he let go, Mu Cheng saw the opportunity, got out of his side, and pulled Jiang Shu into the back seat quickly.
Jiang Cheng wanted to stop again, but the caller ID on the screen made him have to scruple.
He quickly turned his back and avoided it to the side before picking it up, "Xiao Dong? ”
