54 Chapter 54
Zheng Baoqiu clearly saw Mu Qing revealing a dark white eye.
After the meal, she caught up with Chen Wengang: "Don't talk to Muqing, he has been fluttering recently, isn't he selling two paintings, appearing on TV once, and having tens of thousands of fans, he feels that he is a big shot." Look, the nostrils are different when you speak. ”
Chen Wengang smiled and went upstairs side by side with her.
Passing by the study, Chen Wengang turned in and said that he was looking for a book. Zheng Baoqiu followed him in, and there was nothing special to see, just chatting along the way. Chen Wengang saw the raccoon smiling at him again, he walked over and picked up the animal card and played with it.
There was the newspaper of the day on the table, and when Zheng Baoqiu saw it, he felt a little melancholy: "Hey, grandpa is about to die." ”
"Don't be upset." Chen Wengang comforted her, "Have you visited him recently?" ”
"Luckily, my mom and I went once. In fact, it is not so much sad as emotional. He's been sick for so long, no matter what, we've been mentally prepared for it a long time ago. But I didn't have any sense of reality, I just thought it was strange that this time he really seemed to be leaving. ”
The two sat down by the floor-to-ceiling window, and the wind suddenly picked up outside the window. The temperature dropped in the evening, and the weather forecast said that there would be persistent heavy rains in the near future.
After flipping through the newspaper, the front page is about the Huo family's big and small affairs, and when I read the magazine again, I will talk about it again in a different way.
Before Huo Kaishan's body had a new situation, the arrangement and combination of this material was already a bit annoying.
Chen Wengang changed his face, and unexpectedly saw Huo Niansheng's photo, and looked at him with a little playful smile.
This is an image that he easily found on the Internet, and the background was taken on his yacht. Huo Niansheng leaned his back against the deck railing, held a goblet, and picked a pair of peach blossom eyes, not knowing who was talking to on the other side, the words "playboy" were written on his face.
The ship is now nominally Chenwen Gang's. People turn over and over, and it's still the same romantic history as before.
Chen Wengang is actually ready to see himself at any time here.
It's just that he is quite lucky, and no reporter has photographed him head-on so far.
Zheng Baoqiu propped his chin and broke the spine of the magazine: "My grandfather and I are actually not very close, he is more old-fashioned and unapproachable than my father in some places." I still remember going to see him when I was very young, I don't know what the adults are talking about, he is a little angry, and I don't have an eye, I want him to hug me when I go up, guess what he said? He said that it was useless to hug it, and in the future, my grandfather's money would be my uncle's, and you would not give it to you because you were a granddaughter. No matter what they're arguing about, whose grandfather is talking to his granddaughter like that?! ”
"The old man is pedantic." Chen Wengang leaned back on the sofa, "You just don't care about him." ”
"He can rest assured, I don't have anything to do with him now, just watching the excitement - like I know, my uncle and my aunt have been divorced for two years. Think about it, for two years, I thought the two of them were very affectionate during the Spring Festival last year. Respect each other like guests. ”
"If you want to divide the equity in the divorce, it is taboo to expose it casually, and you may not want outsiders to guess."
"That's it, you can win an Oscar. It's none of our business anyway. ”
She casually flipped the coated paper into a loud noise, and suddenly reacted: "Oh, you're not, you still have a cousin." I said you have to be careful not to get involved in irrelevant right and wrong. Don't reveal what anyone has asked you lately. ”
Chen Wengang laughed: "It's okay, I don't know." He didn't tell me anything. ”
Zheng Baoqiu was stunned, and didn't realize what kind of fun this was: "Ah? What? You never talk about that? ”
Chen Wengang raised the newspaper: "Listen to what you said, since your grandfather is such a character, suspicious, and controlling, and there are so many complicated relationships in the family, what good is it to tell me?" He probably thought it would be better for me to be an outsider. ”
*
Just when all the reporters were waiting for the ECG to "beep", waiting and waiting, Huo Kaishan held on again.
It's been a week, two weeks, three weeks...... It's been three weeks, and there has been no new news from the hospital.
Unable to wait for the critical illness notice and death obituary, the media from all walks of life seemed to be walked around in vain, and a large number of manpower and material resources began to retreat one shift after another, waiting for the next comeback.
But those in the know always know that Huo Kaishan's health is deteriorating, and it is indeed getting worse day by day.
Sure enough, it began to rain for a week.
By the second week, the flood control work began to become serious, and citizens received reminder text messages on their mobile phones every day.
Elsewhere, the drainage system in the old town is weak, prone to waterlogging, and dangers are hidden.
Chen Wengang's heart couldn't be finished for a while.
He told Chen Xiangling to study at home for a while, and not to go out if he had nothing to do, so he bought two large bags of fresh ingredients from the supermarket after work and sent them to her. Then it was Russell Wei who came to find him.
Houren Special Education School is a newly built campus, I don't know if it can stand the test, together with a few other administrators, three or four people went to inspect it. Luckily, there were no leaks or damage to the playground. Unfortunately, the rain suddenly increased before leaving, trapping them in the school building.
Outside, there was a white expanse, half a meter away, no people and ghosts could be distinguished, the wind was howling rapidly, and the movement was almost suspicious of a tornado.
However, there was a lack of food and drink in the teaching building, and there was a shortage of water and electricity, so when the rain was a little lighter, they immediately tried to find a way to go back to their respective homes.
The road is full of water, driving is like driving a boat on the sea, and many cars with lower exhaust pipes have broken down.
Chen Wengang looked at the route, his eyelids were beating hard that day, and he always felt that something was going to happen.
The navigation informed that there was a roadblock ahead, so he turned around and turned to Lu Chenlong's house.
The result came at the right time, and the Lu family was in great need of help.
Lu Chenlong's yard is low-lying, and the water is backing up, and the waterline is going up, and it looks like it is about to flood into the house. When Chen Wengang arrived, Lu Chenlong was wearing a raincoat and splashed a basin out of the door, and there was a row of flood control sandbags at the door.
His family was not the only one in the surrounding neighborhood who suffered from this, and they were all splashing water. I haven't experienced such a high water mark in many years.
Chen Wengang was given an iron bucket.
In the end, the two barely saved the situation and scooped out most of the water in the courtyard. Back in the house, wearing a raincoat, the outside is wet, take off the raincoat, the inside is wetter than the outside, completely soaked through, and there are two water stains on the ground.
The bedroom was closed with the door, and Xiaobao was still sleeping heartlessly on the bed inside.
Lu Chenlong didn't care about changing clothes, so he went to find a towel first, suddenly raised his head, and thought of a question-
"Oh, your yard is fine!"
Chen Wengang's house is still being renovated, and the project has arrived
At the end, the house was soaked in water, and I don't know how many places I have to start again.
It's also a headache to think about, and it's a troublesome thing.
。
Chen Wengang thought for a while: "I remember that the yard of our house was raised, and it was rarely flooded when I was a child, so it shouldn't be." ”
Just in case, he took an umbrella and went to check on the house again. You don't have to take off your wet clothes, and if you change them, they are still wet, and in this weather, umbrellas and raincoats are a psychological comfort.
Fortunately, the house was clean. Chen Wengang should be grateful to his parents for their foresight and the extra brick was laid in the yard.
Lu Chenlong opened the door and put him into the house, and the two of them breathed a sigh of relief when they had shelter above their heads.
Pulling open the wardrobe drawer, Lu Chenlong found an old T-shirt of his own, threw it to him to change it first, and then flipped through it for a long time, hesitating between the big pants and the pajama pants. Chen Wengang had already changed his shirt, and this time he remembered a question: "What about Grandma Zhou's house?" ”
Although Grandma Zhou's shop is next door and her place of residence is not on Jiangchao Street, it is not far away, one street away.
Lu Chenlong threw his big pants on the bed and called her to ask if there was any situation.
A few beeps and beeps.
The female voice on the phone said, "Your call was not answered, please broadcast it again later." ”
The two glanced at each other, and saw some solemnity on each other's faces.
Lu Chenlong thought on the bright side: "Maybe behind the ear, didn't you hear it?" Or not at home. ”
Chen Wengang asked: "With such a heavy rain, where can she be when she is not at home?" ”
Lu Chenlong said: "Keep fighting, fight twice, it's really not okay to go to her house to have a look." Not far anyway. ”
After a quarter of an hour, no one answered.
Chen Wengang's eyelids were still jumping. He thought of something, picked up the ** raincoat and put it back on his body, Lu Chenlong looked outside, and suddenly grabbed him: "Don't go, I'll just go and see it alone." You stay home with Xiaobao. ”
Chen Wengang said: "Then you should stay." ”
The hunch in his heart was not very good, and he hesitated before going out and took the car keys.
Lu Chenlong simply locked the bedroom door, put on the raincoat, and rushed into the rain with him.
When I arrived at Mrs. Zhou's house, the water on the road was already up to my calves, and there were countless unknown objects floating. After going up two stone steps, the ground of her house is high, and the water is gone. Chen Wengang leaned on the crack of the door and looked in, and a vague figure was stretched into a long strip.
But it wasn't very clear, Lu Chenlong slapped the door panel, but there was no answer inside.
Chen Wengang looked around and looked up at the research institute wall: "You support me." ”
The water is so watered that people can't open their eyes. Lu Chenlong bowed down, Chen Wengang stepped on his shoulder, climbed onto the edge of the courtyard wall, and his line of sight crossed the obstruction.
The door was open, and the old lady was crouched on the threshold, her head facing inwards and her feet facing outward.
Chen Wengang hurriedly let him hold on, and continued to climb up by himself. The moss was slippery, the tentacles were sticky, and he couldn't grasp the support points, Lu Chenlong was frightened, watched him slide several times, and hung one leg up slowly: "Okay, no, no, I'll come, you come down......"
Thanks to Chen Wengang's usual exercise, he has a little core strength, gritted his teeth and kicked the wall, and finally lifted himself up.
He froze and jumped in like a cat.
Lexus was lucky not to turn off the ignition, slowly swimming out of the stagnant water area and taking people all the way to the emergency room.
The old lady was pushed in by the nurse to check, and there was only one left to wait.
Lu Chenlong had never seen Mrs. Zhou's children, but he had only heard that there was a bad grandson. Working hard outside all year round, it is easy to see no one. But the family still has to be contacted. The elderly man has a chronic disease and usually comes to the hospital, and the nurse finally finds the mobile phone number of his family member from the file.
"You're going back first?" Chen Wengang asked Lu Chenlong. The two ** sat on the public seats outside the department.
"Forget it, I'll wait." Lu Chenlong said, "If you leave at dawn, it's better to walk a little." ”
I just saw a 711 downstairs, he went down to buy two towels, and came back to give one to Chen Wengang.
Chen Wengang wiped his hair, subconsciously raised his hand in front of his eyes and looked at it, soaked in the rain and turned white and wrinkled.
Lu Chenlong glanced at him strangely, and saw that he was sitting in a chair and was stunned, not knowing what he was thinking.
In the end, Chen Wengang pulled his wet hair back, and the locks of hair hung down to his forehead again.
Little by little, the sky brightened.
The results of the examination are out. It was dark and her feet were slippery, and Mrs. Zhou tripped over the threshold, touched her head, and fainted for a while. The halfway person woke up for a while, lost his energy and fell asleep again, lying on the hospital bed inside for infusion, and tomorrow the family will come and make more films.
At about seven o'clock, a big man hurried in.
Lu Chenlong made up his mind to see what this unworthy descendant looked like, his face was not clear, and he saw two strings of Buddhist beads on his wrist.
Phew, believe in Buddhism? It's quite hypocritical.
Yu Shanding rushed into the ward in a hurry.
Chen Wengang saw him from a distance, but he had a sore throat and didn't bother to scream, so he had already run over. The old lady still closed her eyes and didn't wake up, Yu Shanding finished talking to the nurse, and withdrew again gratefully, asking where the kind people who sent his grandmother to the hospital were.
The nurse pointed to the wall.
was surprised for five seconds, but didn't say a word, Yu Shanding's posture of rushing up seemed to be eager to kiss Chen Wengang on the face, and he thought of something, stopped his hand in time, turned around, and hugged Lu Chenlong: "Little brother, I have to thank you this time." ”
Lu Chenlong tried to push him away: "No, no, no. Big brother, don't hug me, you go hug that ......"
Yu Shanding grabbed his hand: "I know, I know, I know Wengang and he is very familiar with him, how do you know that you are so fateful, you and my grandmother's neighbors, both of you are my benefactors, I Yu Shanding has no culture, and I am not a person who knows how to repay my kindness, if I don't dislike it, I will be a friend in the future, and I will mention it if I have a useful place." ”
Lu Chenlong grabbed his arm with difficulty: "No, no, no...... The old lady still has to make a film, so hurry up. I really have to go back. ”
Chen Wengang waved his hand to him: "You go slowly on the road." I'm not sending you anymore. ”
Lu Chenlong listened to his voice wrongly: "Why are you talking so dumb, you catch a cold?" ”
Stopped a passing nurse, and saw that his cheekbones were flushed, and unexpectedly reached out and put his forehead on his forehead: "It's so hot, I'm going to have a fever." There are a lot of people who have caught colds lately. Sit down inside, and I'll get you a thermometer. ”
