Because the ticket was bought in a hurry, Wu Mingfan did not fly directly from Los Angeles to the Dongjiang River, but landed in Beiping 15 hours later.

At 5 o'clock in the morning, Wu Mingfan walked out of the airport and took a bus to Beiping South Railway Station, which was more than three hours by high-speed rail.

Along the way, this hurried rush is a toss, the bearded face is full of exhaustion, if it weren't for the regular exercise over the years, it is estimated that I would have to go to the hospital for two days before I got home.

After getting out of the high-speed rail station, he got into his cousin Jiang Kaichen's car directly, and took the black filial piety cloth handed over to his arm.

After that, he didn't have time to catch up, so he quickly turned his head and asked, "Brother, how is Grandpa?" ”

"Grandpa has gone home now, and the funeral originally had to be simple, but the leaders of Dongjiang University, as well as some of Grandpa's previous students, negotiated with my father and second uncle!"

"It means to hold a small memorial service, the time is set at two o'clock in the afternoon, and the sister-in-law's family also rushed back from Peking yesterday~"

Jiang Kaichen is the grandson of the Jiang family, and he has been loved by his grandfather since he was a child, so he is also very uncomfortable at this time, and when he saw his cousin's embarrassed appearance, he couldn't help but nod in his heart.

"Alas~" let out a long sigh.

Then he explained: "Grandpa was not in good health before! ”

"But some time ago, Grandpa Wu and his old man just took the old man to complete the physical examination, and all the functional indicators were okay, no one expected to have a heart attack!"

Wu Mingfan, the co-pilot, didn't speak, he was leaning on the car seat and closing his eyes to recuperate, he hadn't closed his eyes for almost 24 hours since the United States, and he had a day's surgery before he got on the plane, and he was indeed a little tired.

To say that there are indeed some sadness, but after all, he is a doctor, and he is calmer than anyone else, because his grandfather Jiang Dewen is also a joy and mourning in a sense.

When I was young, I suffered a lot in the countryside, and almost all of my body suffered more than ten kinds of diseases, and if it weren't for my in-laws from a medical family, I guess I wouldn't have survived now......

I don't know when, Wu Mingfan was already asleep in the car, and after a while, he felt that someone was clapping his hands.

"Son, son, wake up!"

"Mom~"

After Wu Mingfan opened his eyes, he saw the familiar person, and a smile appeared directly on his face.

"Oops~" When I got out of the car, my legs were still a little numb, and I almost fell down when I stumbled.

Jiang Qi, who was wearing a simple black dress here, saw her son with a tired face, messy hair and a scruffy beard, and she was naturally a little distressed as a mother.

He said angrily: "Oh, you kid! ”

"Why are you so busy coming back, go and kowtow to your grandfather first, and then hurry up to the house to wash it, and change your clothes in the room."

"Auntie, I'll take Mingfan with you!" Jiang Kaichen on the side spoke.

After that, he led his cousin to the courtyard, although it was only 11 o'clock, but some relatives and friends had already arrived.

Wu Mingfan greeted him as he walked inside.

"Second uncle and second aunt~"

"Sister-in-law!"

"I just came back from the United States, so I'll go kowtow to my grandfather first, and we'll talk later!"

When I arrived in the living room, I couldn't suppress my emotions anymore, and knelt directly on the ground, because the humorous old man who often told stories to himself when he was a child was lying there cold at the moment.

"Grandpa, Mingfan is back......"

Jiang Boshu, the 59-year-old son of the Jiang family, was also very relieved to see his nephew rushing over......

After all, Jiang Dewen has taught books at Dongjiang University all his life, and as the saying goes, many students come to send the teacher one last time.

In addition, old colleagues and friends, as well as some relatives and the like, the scale of the memorial service was not small, and even the main leaders of Dongjiang University came to express their condolences in person.

……

After attending his grandfather's memorial service, Wu Mingfan didn't have time to chat with his grandparents after returning home, so he went back to his room and slept for more than ten hours.

At 6 o'clock the next morning, the fatigue of running all the way was finally gone, and I got up and got dressed and went downstairs in good spirits.

Old man Wu, whose hair has all grayed, is wearing a pair of pajamas, slowly playing Tai Chi in the courtyard.

Although the old man is 80 years old this year, he has been a doctor all his life, so he naturally knows how to maintain it very well, and his ruddy face looks like he is sixty or seventy years old.

Go to bed on time at 10 o'clock every day, get up at 5 o'clock in the morning to exercise, and then eat less oil, less salt and more vegetables.

"Grandpa, your old man got up early!"

After saying hello, Wu Mingfan shook his arms and stretched his legs, and then began to squat with his head in his hands, which can be regarded as a simple exercise.

The surgeon must have a strong body, otherwise sometimes the operation that lasts for more than ten hours will not last at all.

"Whew~" Here, Wu Haisheng has a Tai Chi cloud hand to collect his strength and exhale.

He walked over and sat down on a chair next to him and poured himself a cup of tea.

"Mingfan, how many days can you stay at home this time?"

"After... God, I had to go back to the United States, I was in a hurry, and I only took four days of annual leave~"

"Whew, whew~" Wu Mingfan gasped heavily, and was doing sit-ups when he spoke, tired and sweating profusely.

In fact, I understand why grandpa asked this, because it will be his birthday in more than ten days, but he deliberately pretended not to understand, wanting to tease this old man.

And Wu Haisheng, who was drinking tea, heard that his eyes flashed a little lonely, and he opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he still couldn't speak.

simply changed the topic and said: "Mingfan, you are also 30 years old this year, it's time to start a family, when can I hold my great-grandson?" ”

"Grandpa, don't worry about this, I have a big matter to discuss with you?"

Wu Mingfan said a carp, stood up directly from the ground, and then leaned over to the old man and pulled a chair to sit down.

"What's the matter?"

"Grandpa, I want to go back to work in Dongli!"

"Go back to Dongli..." Speaking of this, Wu Haisheng immediately reacted.

Surprised, he opened his mouth wide, and then asked again with some uncertainty.

"Eldest grandson, you just said that you want to go back to work at Dongli Hospital?"

Wu Mingfan nodded seriously, he really wanted to come back, he has been busy with work all these years, and he has been back home five times in the past ten years, and he has not stayed for a month in total.

Although I have some friends in the United States, I can't replace my family, and I go back to my big villa all day long, and I am faced with cold furniture.

Thinking of this, he said firmly: "Yes, it's to go back to Dongli Hospital!" ”

"It's enough to be abroad all these years, I can't get used to eating and sleeping all day long, no matter when the country is my home~"

"When I graduated from my PhD in '15, I wanted to come back for a while, but my supervisor, Professor Hoss, had already given a letter of recommendation to UCLA Health, but it was not very good!"

"Well, that's right, you kid can't bluff me, I'm going to call Cui Jing!"

Saying that, Wu Haisheng looked at his grandson nervously, for fear that he was amusing himself.

Wu Mingfan smiled helplessly, and then looked like someone had added a cup of tea to the old man.

Then he whispered: "Grandpa, how old am I, can I joke about this!" ”

"I've thought about it before, even if I don't have my grandfather this time, I have plans to return to China to develop!"

"This is great, I'll call Cui Jing right away~"

Speaking of Wu Haisheng, who is 80 years old, with a childlike smile on his face, he took out his mobile phone and called his beloved apprentice who was the vice president.

"Hey, Xiao Cui, I'm your master Wu Haisheng!"
