Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Strange Sick Man
When my cousin had finished speaking, he turned around and left.
He didn't want to care about anything else, after all, money didn't include these family trivialities.
But I could see that Brother Xie's face had changed from iron blue to pale.
I don't know what happened in between, but it's hard to ask.
After the children were kicked out, they sat on the side of the street.
Fortunately, this is also a small alley, and at that time, Young Master Chen bought this shop to help the original owner of this shop.
I heard that the previous owner of this shop was an old man, and because he was seriously ill, he couldn't find money for treatment, so he sold the shop.
But this shop is in a small alley in an urban village.
It's not a prosperous shop, and it can't attract people, and it was only twenty or thirty thousand when it was sold.
Young Master Chen gave 100,000 yuan to buy this shop, which can be regarded as doing a good deed.
Brother Xie didn't call those children in, he sat alone on the edge of Old Man Xie's coffin and was silent.
It didn't take long for him to suddenly kneel beside the old man's coffin, kowtowing and crying.
He didn't say anything about what was going on.
Dong Jing and I just watched, and it was not easy to persuade.
But of course, we didn't dare to leave.
If he can't think about it and dies on the edge of the coffin, then we are guilty.
Let's not mention that there are only us in this shop, and after he dies, we can't escape, and we probably have to be arrested by the police for interrogation.
Besides, what his cousin just said to him made him so emotional, if we really die, we won't be able to pass our own level.
I don't know how long Brother Xie has been crying.
Dong Jing walked over and reached out and patted him on the shoulder as a sign of comfort.
At this time, girls are more useful than boys, at least men will feel better when there is a woman on the side to care.
"What happened, if you are willing to say something, you can tell us, so that your mood will not be so heavy, although we can't give a good enlightenment plan, but at least you can listen."
Hearing Dongjing's words, Brother Xie's tears, which had already been contained, poured out again.
"Mr. Wen is right, my twin sons are not my Xie family's species. I have always had problems with my body, and I can't cure it, and that is the IVF that I went to the hospital to do. IVF is already relatively weak, and they are still twins, and after coming out of the mother's womb, their health has been very bad and they often get sick. ”
"Not long ago, the eldest brother of the twins had a strange disease, he would spit when he slept at night, and if he didn't find out in time to feed him medicine, he would vomit blood and white foam. I really couldn't help it, and all the money from the family was used to treat him. ”
Brother Xie said as he wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.
Just when the eldest twin brother was sick, Old Man Xie also entered the sanatorium.
The costs on both sides added up, and all of them were pressed on Brother Xie.
He was desperate to find a job on the side of the street, but he didn't find it, but he was bumped into by an old Taoist priest.
"The man told me that the old man was dying soon anyway, and now he was lying in a sanatorium, and although he was alive, he was also in pain. Let me pass all his longevity to my children, so that I can keep a queen, and the old man can be regarded as having a queen. ”
Only then did I know that Brother Xie was not only the eldest son of their Xie family, but also the only son.
Therefore, for the succession of the lineage, his traditional closed thinking is still relatively flattering.
finally got two sons, and he naturally didn't want to give up.
He thought that as long as he could raise his two sons, his father, that is, Old Man Xie, would definitely not blame him.
But that's not the case.
Old Man Xie had long known that those two children were not of their family's species, and he hurt the two children, just because the two of them were still young, but they were only five or six years old, and they were also likable.
But compared to this pair of twin grandchildren, Old Man Xie loves other grandchildren more.
After all, the other children were born to their own daughters, and this pair of twins didn't know which man's seed they belonged to.
"I didn't ask my father, I just took his eight characters and gave them to the old Taoist. After the old way helped me out, it is strange to say that my two children's illnesses were cured. It's just that the two children are always pale. I took it to the doctor and said it was a little anemic and it wasn't a big problem. That's how relieved I am. ”
But not long after the eldest brother came out of the hospital with the two children, he received a call from the nursing home that his father had passed away.
Hearing this, I probably understood what was going on.
It's no wonder that the old man would leave a word of injustice, which is indeed quite unjust for him.
It's just that even if the problem is with Brother Xie now, the biggest problem is still with that old Taoist.
Who the hell is that person?
Why did he coax Brother Xie to get his father's birthday?
The most important thing is that he helped Brother Xie with this, what good is it for him?
This makes me wonder.
"Did he ask you for anything?" I looked at Brother Xie.
He thought about it carefully and shook his head.
"I was poor at the time, and he didn't ask me how much it was. But I knew that it was life-saving money, so I sealed a red envelope for him, and it was 1,000 yuan. There's not much left left. ”
That's even weirder.
"Are you done talking?" My cousin's voice came from outside the door.
I stood up and reached out and patted Brother Xie on the shoulder, telling him not to be too upset.
Anyway, now that the matter has been solved by my cousin, the rest of the funeral will be considered over.
There is no way to repay what you owe in this life, so you can only repent more in spring and autumn.
But it doesn't really work.
Some things are lifelong in my heart, especially my father, who killed him.
"Things are actually pretty much the same on our side, and we'll be taken to the crematorium tomorrow morning. I did the math just now, it looks like an auspicious time at about nine o'clock in the morning, and you should arrange it in advance at that time, so don't miss the hour. ”
My cousin explained to Brother Xie and left with us.
It was almost dawn when I got home, and I didn't feel sleepy.
Maybe it's because the amount of information in this matter is too much for me to accept at once.
And then there's about the old Taoist.
I lay on the couch for hours, confused, trying not to figure out what he was up to.
If he had a good heart, he would definitely not be able to change his life.
He doesn't have a good heart, and he won't bargain, he will take as much as Brother Xie gives.
After all, such a thing as changing the name can't be done for every 100,200,000 yuan.
Slowly, I couldn't resist the sleepiness anymore and fell asleep.
