Chapter 237 The ancients have gone by Yellow Crane
After handling Yu Ziqian’s body, Ning Zhe wanted to go home quietly and sort out his messy thoughts.
I was just about to drive back to Gubei Town, but suddenly I remembered that my old house, the forest farm and more than ten acres of farmland had been included in the demolition area, and my only two relatives were now also Lying in the hospital doing hospice care.
He no longer has a home to return to in the secular sense.
Buying some nutritional supplements and small gifts, Ning Zhe went to the hospital to visit his grandparents who were paralyzed in bed.
The two elderly people are doing well now. They live in the best ward and are cared for by nannies in their daily life. Their granddaughter-in-law comes to chat with them every now and then. The only regrets they have are that they can't get out of bed and move around, and that they haven't seen each other for a long time. He is obsessed with Ning Zhe, his grandson.
"Azhe, what have you been busy with recently? Yaming said that he won't be able to see you during this period of time." Grandma was lying on the hospital bed, holding a red orange in her wrinkled hands, very patiently Peel off the orange veins carefully , broke off a piece and handed it to his grandson sitting in front of the bed: "Your wife bought it yesterday, try it to see if it is sweet."
Ning Zhe took the orange and put it in his mouth. He was worthy of being a professional agronomist. The tangerine grown in sugarcane is extremely sweet.
“I called my wife before I even walked in.” Ning Zhe took the remaining half of an orange from his grandmother’s hand and said, “I recently went to Yundu, where I want to go to school. Familiarize yourself with the school environment in advance and become familiar with the senior brothers and sisters.”
The grandfather sleeping in the bed next door nodded with satisfaction. He has always been reassured about his grandson, mainly because Ning Zhe has been there since he was a child. He hasn't had much to worry about since he was a kid.
"You can take Ya Ming with you." Grandma added: "That little girl also wants to study in Yunzhou... Your grandfather and her family have already discussed it. Ah Zhe, you will live in the dormitory for a year when school starts. After Ming's college entrance examination, he moved out. The two of them rented a house outside the school so that they could live together so they could be taken care of... ..."
"You want to hug your great-grandson as soon as possible." Ning Zhe put the remaining orange segment into his mouth and said, "Don't think about having children while you are reading. Study. ”
Two young men and a widower live together, hoping that he will accidentally misfire.
In the past, Ning Zhe might have thought it didn't matter, but those who have experienced this kind of thing and those who have not experienced it are completely different mentality. It's hard to say whether he can control it now.
“Huh.” Grandpa hummed in a deep voice and said, “You are not in a hurry, I am. Your grandma and I may be gone one day...”
"Don't say such unlucky words." Ning Zhe interrupted his grandfather.
“I’m afraid of something unlucky!”
Grandpa didn’t care and spoke louder:
“Old man, I’m illiterate, but I know how to ask someone. I heard someone read the medical records prescribed by the doctor... The two of us were not in good health to begin with, and we were both elderly. Even at a young age, someone had given such a poisonous drug. The fact that he is still alive is all thanks to his ancestors. The doctors and nurses are busy every day, and I can see all the beeping sounds of various instruments. How much money are they worth? Ah..."
Ning Zhe had a lump in his throat. He had already guessed what his grandfather was going to say next.
"Azhe, listen, our family got a little lucky and made a fortune when we were demolished. However, our family has a lot of money and silver, so we can't stand such a defeat. We two old guys can only live in the ward for a day. Ten thousand yuan, no amount of money can withstand such abuse..."
Grandpa He shook his head and turned to look out the window, never looking at Ning Zhe from beginning to end: "Your grandma and I are already old and have only a few more years to live, but you are still young and have to get married. This money is spent on We have no heads..." "Stop talking." Ning Zhe raised his hand to stop him from continuing: "You. Have you watched too many short dramas on Douyin? It’s not like you have terminal cancer, you’re just a little weak and can’t get out of bed. I’ve asked the doctor that you and grandma can be discharged after a while of rest. Don’t think about that. A mess..."
Ning Zhe talked endlessly, and the two old men listened quietly without retorting a word. They only warned him when he left the hospital: "Yaming is a good girl, but her family members are a bit mean. You have to treat her well." She.”
The next morning, Ning Zhe received a notice from the hospital.
The two old men secretly committed suicide together in the early morning.
Grandpa left him a suicide note. Ning Zhe did not read it carefully, nor did he want to read it carefully. He only knew that it said:
They had actually thought about committing suicide for a long time. The cost of hospitalization and maintenance is too great. The old couple who have been farmers all their lives have never seen so much money in their lives. They feel distressed just looking at it. They always think that they might as well go earlier and save more. Property to grandson. It’s just that I recently saw my grandson-in-law, and I fell in love with her very much. I was thinking and hoping that I could wait until my great-grandson was born, hug the child, and get married before leaving. That’s why I have been dragging my feet until now.
But according to Ning Zhe yesterday, at least he will not consider having children during the four years of college. If he wants to study for a PhD in the future, it will take even longer.
The old man didn't want to delay his grandson's studies and future, and was afraid that staying in the hospital for too long would ruin his family fortune and drag down the young man, so he made up his mind to hold hands and hit the road together.
"From a rational point of view, it is very reasonable for them to make such a choice. Instead of lying in a ward that costs a lot of money and endure the pain for several years without any hope of recovery, it is better to get rid of it as soon as possible. Leaving more property to future generations is the option with the highest yield..."
Standing beside the hospital bed and looking at the two people who looked peaceful on the two beds, Ning Zhe tried to convince himself that in the past life He has always lived like this, but some things cannot be explained rationally.
For example, he now has a strong urge in his heart to use life money to bring the two old people back from hell again. He cannot find any reason to convince himself that this is reasonable and this is What should be done, this is in my interest...
There is no reason, he just simply wants to do this.
“…Forget it.”
Ning Zhe clenched and relaxed his fists, relaxed and clenched them again, and finally chose to respect the old man's choice.
Obviously he has controlled Jue Yuan, and he can give them the ideological stamp of "Hee hee, I must live" and force the two old people to continue living. However, if he does this, he will I feel like I've let down something.
Ning Zhe felt that he was a little paranoid. Even he couldn't tell whether this paranoia was his own inner thoughts or whether it was influenced by the 'Jueyuan' in his mind. Maybe both? Maybe none.
Who knows.
Leaving the hospital bed and coming to the window, Ning Zhe looked at the busy traffic on the road in the distance and suddenly felt uncontrollably homesick.
