Inside the hospital room.

I looked at the weak grandfather, and finally felt a little guilty in my heart, but my grandfather didn't blame me, he also knew that I needed time to digest these things, just said that yesterday Xia Yatou went out to buy food, and when she saw that I was drinking, she didn't bother me, and then I didn't sleep all night, so I found time to take her to rest today.

Xia girl, it seems that grandpa really treats him as his own granddaughter. I felt a little uncomfortable, but I didn't show it.

I took apart the breakfast I brought, helped my grandfather up and fed it slowly, he smiled happily, and my heart twitched again, I haven't eaten with my grandfather for a long time...

Suddenly I heard a rush of footsteps, and I probably knew that they had returned. Just when I was at a loss, the door was suddenly opened, and then I saw two figures standing in the doorway, a man and a woman, the man was very tall, but a little rickety, and the woman was dressed very gorgeously, and both of them had tears on their faces.

I once imagined that one day in a certain year, I accompanied my grandfather to sit comfortably at the door basking in the sun, and my parents returned to the small mountain village where I was born and raised with a lot of delicious food, eating the peaches that my grandfather brought me back when I was a child, or in the new house I bought, my mother stood in the kitchen and cooked a delicious dinner for me and my grandfather, and my father took out the wine he collected...

But I never thought that we would meet again at my grandfather's hospital bed. They have become the ones I don't recognize, but they still exist in my inner memory.

"Dad."

"Dad."

The two men shouted out in unison. When they came to the hospital bed, Xia Chuxue also followed, standing behind them obediently. The woman looked at me with tears in her eyes, I looked at her gaze, but I didn't speak, and then Han Jianguo said

"Dad, what's going on... That's not what you say in your letter, you say you're in good health. ”

"Hey, I'm old, it's normal to get sick, tell you that you should be worried, it's better to let you work hard outside, and Xiaoming has taken good care of me over the years. But in the end, it worries you. Grandpa smiled and said. Then he looked at Xia Fang, "Child, you have lost weight." ”

"Dad, it's old." Xia Fang said with tears in her eyes

"Yes, I'm old, and Ichiming is an adult." Han Jianguo also spoke, and then looked at me, and we looked at each other like this.

I eventually held back my emotions and grinned to try to be as calm as possible, I didn't want my grandfather to be unhappy in his final moments

"Dad... Mom, you're back. ”

I don't know how much courage it takes for me to shout these two words again after more than ten years, and I don't know what I was thinking, after all, these two words are so foreign to me, like two stinky and long English words, which are obscure. But I still try to keep myself sane, at least in front of my grandfather.

Han Jianguo and Xia Fang were also stunned, probably not believing that I would call their parents without warning, although this is an indisputable fact, and they will not believe that I will behave so calmly, but they are very happy. Xia Fang finally opened her mouth

"Son..."

An indescribable emotion came up my throat, I looked at the gorgeously dressed woman in front of me, it made me feel strange and disgusting, I saw the shabby clothes that my grandfather had worn for years lying quietly on the table beside me, I wanted to stand up and ask loudly why they didn't say goodbye, why they didn't want me and grandpa, why there was no sound for so many years, but in the end I just opened my mouth, but I couldn't make a sound.

Xia Chuxue, who was standing behind, saw my emotions and took the initiative to speak

"Grandpa, Mom and Dad haven't had breakfast yet, I'll go down with Yiming to buy lunch."

I looked at them, Xia Fang was lying on Han Jianguo's shoulder crying, but he didn't speak, although grandpa said that he didn't want them to come back, but his face couldn't stop being happy, as if it was a mood to see his son come back to see him and the child sitting at the door of the house waiting for the mother to come back with delicious food, and then looked at me and said,

"Grandson, you take Xia Yatou to find a hotel to sleep in, and we will go out to eat in a while, and I just have something to say to your parents."

Han Jianguo wanted to say something to me, but I was pulled out by Xia Chuxue. Didn't look back at them.

···

Out of the hospital, Xia Chuxue went to drive first, I stood on the side of the road squinting and felt the scorching autumn sun, all said that the autumn was high and cool, but the temperature of the sun on the head at noon was not worse than that of summer, I was a little dazed by the sun, and then I found a step to sit down, lit a cigarette to calm my mood.

I received another call from my grandfather, who told me that Han Jianguo and Xia Fang had gone to discharge him from the hospital, and that they would go back to the small mountain village first and let us go back tomorrow. Then he told me in a very kind voice to find a clean hotel for her Xia girl and have a good rest.

I smiled wryly and nodded, it seems that the old man feels very sorry for this granddaughter in his heart.

Xia Chuxue stopped beside me in the white Mercedes, and I sat down, and I told him about my grandfather telling us to go back tomorrow. Then I noticed that she was looking at me with very complicated eyes, which made me feel strange. She looked at the half-smoked cigarette in my hand again, and I noticed it, but I didn't mean to throw it away, I opened the window and smoked quietly.

Nothing to say all the way,

About twenty minutes later, she parked her car in front of the only four-star hotel in the county, and then I followed her into the elevator with the surprised eyes of the hotel staff.
