Chapter 222: Calendula
[Grief: Send her home.] 】
Jiang Dandan's hometown is in Nancheng, and it is about a day's drive from Licheng, and it takes almost the next morning to reach her house.
Originally, they also thought about taking a plane or taking a bullet train, but considering the inconvenience of having more items and everyone's taboo about ashes, they finally decided to drive themselves. It just so happened that the teaching assistant could also drive, and Li Yun and Chang Xing took turns.
The next morning, after they got off the highway, it was Yu Xue'er who took Jiang Dandan's family to pick them up.
Yu Xueer deliberately asked for leave the day before, and then took the bullet train home, watching Jiang Dandan's ashes and belongings leave the school with Li Yun's car, remembering the beautiful friendship between herself and Jiang Dandan, she still decided to go back to her hometown to help take care of Jiang Dandan's funeral, and at this time, her best friend, whom Jiang Dandan's family knows, may be able to help in accompanying his family if he can be present.
After returning home yesterday, Yu Xueer went to Jiang Dandan's house as soon as possible to tell them the news of her death, Jiang Dandan's grandmother couldn't stand it and fainted, and after waking up, she kept crying, crying heartbreakingly. Yu Xue'er has been accompanying them and talking to them about the deterioration of Jiang Dandan's condition, Jiang Dandan said in her letter that she didn't expect to use it at this time. qδ.net
Seeing Jiang Dandan's ashes, the family burst into tears and wailed. After bringing Jiang Dandan's ashes home, Jiang Dandan's grandfather talked about her abnormality this summer.
"Since Dandan went to Licheng to go to university, every winter and summer vacation, she is anxious to go back to work, and she will not stay at home for more time. But this summer, she went home as soon as she was on vacation, and stayed at home for more than a month, saying that she wanted to accompany us more and help the family do farm work.
Presumably, she had a premonition that her physical condition was not good, and she often had a bad heart at home, so I asked her uncle to take her to our county hospital to see her, and our medical treatment was backward, and the test results only said that her heart condition was not good, not that it was in the advanced stage, otherwise we would definitely not let her go back to school." After saying that, he hid his face and wiped away his tears.
Jiang Dandan's uncle answered: "At that time, my father also said that she would ask her aunt to go to Licheng with her to take care of her for a while, and it was a big deal to find a job there, close to the school, so that she could take care of her, but she just refused. This kid is so sensible that he takes care of everything himself."
Jiang Dandan's aunt: "Even if you tell us to let us take care of her, what's the matter..."
Li Yun replied, "Dandan just doesn't want you to worry, and doesn't want you to run around for her, so she hides it from you. She also hoped that she would get better and be discharged from the hospital, but she didn't expect that day by day was not as good as day by day, and she should have a premonition that she couldn't hold on, so she chose to leave."
Just as everyone was talking sadly, Jiang Dandan's younger brother released a video of her last words. Seeing the video, Jiang Dandan smiled brightly, walked slowly, and said goodbye to them with a clear voice. Her family couldn't hold it back, and even Li Yun and Ai Shangni and others cried.
"Isn't my sister walking in pain?" Jiang Dandan's younger brother asked crying.
Li Yun replied to him, "Your sister has been suffering from heart disease, and she has been in pain, especially in the past two years, but she is very strong and has endured it all by herself. It was the same for the last few days when she fell ill and was hospitalized, but she didn't complain of pain, but her condition continued to worsen, and your sister had a bad premonition, so she chose to leave in that way, which is relatively peaceful for her."
"My sister has always been afraid of pain, but she chooses—" He choked up and didn't continue.
Jiang Dandan's voice and smile were accompanied by everyone's crying, and the atmosphere was extremely sad. The neighbors saw that Jiang Dandan was gone so young, and it was a white-haired person who sent a black-haired person, and they were all compassionate.
Li Yun and the others stayed for three days, helped Jiang Dandan's family handle her funeral, and then explained the aftermath to her family clearly before they left.
Before leaving, Jiang Dandan's younger brother took a few crystal bracelets and gave them to everyone.
"This is my sister who came back from the summer vacation to make it, when she told us that she wanted to make her own gifts for friends, but we didn't have anything to do, so she found some good crystals to make bracelets by herself. Before she went to school, she told me that if one day her friends came to our house, I would give them these crystal bracelets. She's in the video
It is also said, "There are eight strings in all, please take them."
Jiang Dandan was very attentive, and put each crystal bracelet in a small gift box, Li Yun took it, and then took out two of the boxes and handed them to her brother, "Thank you! We keep six boxes, just five of us, and one of your sister's roommates at school, and the remaining two boxes for you and your cousin as memorials."
"Okay."
Li Yun looked at the big boy in front of him who had similar eyes to Jiang Dandan, his eyes were swollen from crying for his sister's death, he was as sensible as his sister, and he couldn't stop running for his sister's funeral for the past three days, which was really distressing.
"Can I hold you for your sister?"
"Sister~" The boy choked and whispered.
Li Yun leaned over and hugged him and patted him on the back, "Your sister is a wonderful girl, good at studying, smart and diligent. Don't be too sad, study hard, take care of your family, and go to a good university in the future, your sister used to say that she wanted to see you and your cousin go to college, but unfortunately she was sick..."
"Woo~" The grandmother and aunt next to her were still uncomfortable all the time, and tears kept flowing.
Back in Licheng, everything was as usual at Jinglidu University, the morning light sprinkled the entire campus, dazzling and warm, in stark contrast to the darkness and sadness in Ai Shangni's heart at this time.
Jiang Dandan will never be seen in Jinglidu University again, but it has no impact at all, and a distant family is grieving that there is a child missing.
Ai Shangni walked towards the dormitory with heavy steps, and deliberately went to the Great Summer Building, Wang Qi was there, she wanted to go to see the dormitory where Jiang Dandan lived again, and by the way, she gave Wang Qi the crystal bracelet given by Jiang Dandan.
"You're a lot haggard." This was Wang Qi's first feeling when he saw Ai Shangni a few days later.
Haggard? Ai Shangni touched her face, and suddenly remembered Li Yun's dim eyes, she was really haggard when she was running around for Jiang Dandan's affairs these days.
"Maybe it's because of the car." Ai Shangni said.
"Thank you for your hard work, come, sit down."
Before sitting down, Ai Shangni looked around the entire dormitory again, and it could be said that there were almost no traces of Jiang Dandan, because in addition to the items that Jiang Dandan confessed to send home, they also brought back most of the other items about her, and that big photo was no exception.
Wang Qi poured her a glass of boiled water, "Come, drink some water, is Dandan's funeral going well?" Her family must have died of grief."
"It went well, her grandmother was crying and fainting, and the family was very sad."
"Poor Dandan."
Ai Shangni took out the gift box, "This is for you, Dandan made it herself, give one to each of us, and she will make it at home during the summer vacation." Alas, knowing that her condition was worsening, she arranged everything in advance. By the way, you insisted on not taking that necklace, and I explained it to her family and asked them to accept it."
"Just take it, it's too precious."
Ai Shangni looked at Wang Qi and felt a little relieved, Jiang Dandan was accompanied by Wang Qi in the last days, which was a rare warmth for her. Therefore, she wanted to give that necklace to Wang Qi as a gift of gratitude.
"It's good to have you with you at the end."
The corners of Wang Qi's mouth twitched slightly, with a hint of sadness, and said, "Dandan is actually kind-hearted, otherwise, how could you, Sister Yun, and Brother Chang be so good to her. She had a hunch that she might not be able to hold on until when Brother Chang got married, and asked Sister Yun in advance to help her go to the handicraft store to pick up the gifts she had already ordered, and send them to them when Brother Chang got married."
"She is actually a warm person, but everyone is reluctant to understand her anymore because of the things she did, and even denied her whole person with partial generalizations."
"Yes, Yiyi, my mother mentioned the first seven days of Dandan to me in the morning, which is today."
"When we left her house, her family said that they would make the first seven for Dandan according to their custom."
"That's what my mom said, and my family will do it. My mom said if we wanted to do something for her, we could light a candle and pray for her."
Ai Shangni agreed, "Okay, let's make an appointment for the rest of us, and we will be in the stadium or the garden at night."
"Okay, I'll buy the candles, and we'll confirm the specific time and place in the afternoon." Do you have any classes in the morning, if you don't, go back to sleep, you must be tired after sitting in the car for so long."
"There are classes, the next two periods, then I'll go back first."
"Okay, slow down!"
Ai Shangni returned to the 312 dormitory of Mangchong Building, everyone knew that she would come back in the morning, and there was no class, so they were waiting for her in the dormitory.
"Charming~"
"Are you okay, did Jiang Dandan's funeral go well?"
Ai Shangni: "It's smooth, but her family is pitiful and very sad."
"Who can not be sad, it is gone at a young age."
Ai Shangni sighed and then took his clothes into the bathroom, washed them and rested for a while before going to class.
At about seven o'clock in the evening, Ai Shangni took a few dormitories from 312 and Duan Yiqiao to meet Wang Qi in the Great Summer Building.
Looking at the two or three people around him, and then at Ai Shangni and a group of them, Wang Qi said indignantly, "The conscience of those people in our profession has been eaten by dogs, and there is no sympathy at all."
Ai Shangni grabbed Wang Qi, "Originally, it was just a few of us who were close to Dandan, if there were more, it would be the best, if not, only a few of us would also pray for Dandan, Sister Yun and Brother Chang They should also be almost there, let's go to the stadium first, bring candles and lighters."
Wang Qi lifted the bag in his hand, "It's all here, let's go."
After they arrived at the stadium, they chose a relatively empty place to sit in a circle, Wang Qi handed out candles to everyone, she bought a lot of them, thinking that there would be a lot of professional people, and the result was just a few of them.
